|Protocol IDs
|Phase III
|18 and over
Trial Description
Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether chemotherapy is more effective than observation in patients who have had surgery to remove colorectal cancer.
This randomized phase III trial is studying leucovorin and fluorouracil to see how well they work compared to observation in treating patients with colorectal cancer that has been surgically removed.
Eligibility criteria include the following:
- At least 18 years old
- No distant metastases
- No residual disease following surgery
- No more than 12 weeks since surgery
- For more information about the eligibility criteria for this trial, refer to the Health Professional version.
Final eligibility for a clinical trial is determined by the health professionals conducting the trial.
Patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Some patients in group one will receive infusions of leucovorin and fluorouracil for 5 days every 4 weeks for six courses. Other patients will receive infusions of leucovorin and fluorouracil once a week for 30 weeks. Patients in group two will receive observation. All patients will be evaluated once a year.
For more details about this trial, refer to the Health Professional version of the trial summary.

Hi, all! :)
Hey, everyone! My name is Quentin... Friends call me Q. I'm entirely new to sailing, though I've spent a lot of time on boats. I'm a tattoo artist and been so for 24 years. Before that, i worked on tugs in the Mississippi river and on offshore supply boats as well as fishing boats in the Gulf of Mexico. I'm from Louisiana, but currently living in Norway. I've been wanting a sailboat for several years now and think it's about time to make that investment.
I joined the forum here, basically to read about the trials and errors that other people face with having this lifestyle, as well as to ask for advice from veterans and newcomers alike, and maybe to learn from the FAQ's that are faced here... And look forward to getting to know new people along the way...
Thanks! Q

Yesterday afternoon, Congress's Subcommittee on Health held a hearing to examine the FDA's proposal to change the rules of generic drug labeling.
Under the current law, enacted in 1984, warning labels for particular drug formulations are created by the brand-name manufacturers, and generic manufacturers are legally prevented from altering them. This is fine so long as the original manufacturer updates the label; however, these companies typically stop active marketing of their product once generic versions enter the market. Once the original producer stops marketing, they are no longer responsible for updating the label. When the brand-name manufacturer is not obligated to update the label, and the generic manufacturers are legally prevented from doing so, the result is a label that fails to reflect any new risks or side-effects that come to light.
Another consequence of the current law is that, according to a 2011 ruling by the Supreme Court, the makers of generic drugs cannot be held liable for failing to warn consumers of these new dangers. When brand-name manufacturers fail to warn patients, they can be sued to compensate patients for the injuries their products have caused. However, when a patient is harmed by the generic version of a drug, they can sue neither the brand-name nor the generic manufacturers. These patients, sometimes suffering from debilitating injuries, have no recourse to seek justice under our legal system.
The FDA's proposed rule change would authorize generic drug manufacturers to update the warning labels and keep patients informed. Generic manufacturers oppose the rule, as they do not wish to become liable for the drugs they copy. They argue that being open to lawsuits will drive up their costs, and that generic labels that differ from the original will cause confusion for consumers.
In my legal practice I represent dozens of individuals who have had the misfortune of being seriously hurt by generic versions of prescription drugs. In the case of one generic drug meant to treat gastroesophageal reflux, the label had not been updated since the original manufacturer stopped promoting the drug in the early 1970s. If the generic drug makers would have been permitted to update the warning label as information developed over time about the significantly increased risk of drug-induced movement disorders, I believe that most of my clients would have never have been prescribed the medication and would not have suffered the catastrophic injuries that they now face today.
I applaud the FDA for their proposal, and I am hopeful that Congress will see the common sense of these changes that will result in safer drugs, greater accountability of generic drug manufacturers, and justice for injured patients

Sims 28 points, No. 10 Baylor women 110-55 over GS
WACO, Texas (AP)
Baylor is clearly Odyssey Sims' team now.
The senior point guard, a preseason All-America guard and the only returning starter, helped get the 10th-ranked Lady Bears off to a solid start in their first game without Brittney Griner.
Sims had 28 points along with five steals and four rebounds - including a 25-second span when was responsible for seven points - to lead Baylor to a 110-55 season-opening victory over Grambling State on Saturday night.
''It was different. But I like the feel of the team,'' Sims said. ''I felt like we came out and we were ready to go from the jump. ... Everybody came in and knew their role and they played it.''
The Lady Bears extended their nation's-best home winning streak to 58 in a row. They haven't lost in the Ferrell Center since March 2010 to Texas, the final home game of Griner's freshman season.
Mariah Chandler, a returning post player now getting her chance to start, had 14 points. She scored eight in Baylor's game-opening 16-0 run.
All 12 Baylor players, including five freshmen in their college debuts, had rebounds in the game. All the freshmen were among the 11 Lady Bears who scored points. Freshman Nina Davis and Kristina Higgins each had 11 points, while Imani Wright, another freshman, had 10.
''It's a first game and it's a win and wins are going to be hard to come by when you're as young as we are,'' coach Kim Mulkey said. ''And yet, at the same time, we did some good things.''
Victoya Ricks had 14 points and 14 rebounds for Grambling, which had four players score in double figures but had 34 turnovers.
In Baylor's first game since the 6-foot-8 Griner, the two-time AP Player of the Year, and four other seniors finished their careers with an unexpected loss to Louisville in the NCAA round of 16 last March, the Lady Bears scored their most points since 117 against Sam Houston State on Dec. 4, 2006. The school record is 129.
Baylor has won all 14 of its home openers for coach Mulkey.
Before the game, the Lady Bears unveiled three more banners in the rafters. They were for last season's Big 12 regular season and tournament titles, and the Sweet 16 banner. Then there was a lengthy preview video narrated by Dick Enberg.
The new banners hang on the opposite end of the arena from the 2012 national championship that Baylor won going undefeated with the NCAA's only 40-win season.
In less than a half-minute midway through the first half, Sims assisted on a 3-pointer and then had consecutive backcourt steals that she turned into layups. That put Baylor up 31-6.
''I didn't know that. I didn't pay attention to it. It's just instincts,'' Sims said. ''I'm just happy to play with this team. We're new, we're young. It's different.''
Mulkey said Sims never tires out on the court.
''She just has a body that she's like a little muscle out there,'' the coach said. ''She's strong for her size. And a lot is going to be asked of her this year, and it's understandable why. `'
Griner had plenty of highlight dunks, a record-shattering 748 blocked shots (men or women) and 3,283 points (2nd all-time on the NCAA women's career list) during her four seasons. Without her dominating presence in the post, the Lady Bears will highlight their impressive guard play led by Sims, who can now be the primary scorer.
Grambling had five turnovers and missed its first three shots before Watkins scored on a layup with 15:11 left in the first half. Sims had a layup that put Baylor up 37-8 with 9:14 left in the first half before Dennisha Chambers' jumper got the Lady Tigers in double digits.
Chambers had 13 points, Jessica Watkins 12, SWAC preseason player of the year Joanna Miller scored 10 10.
''You want to keep morale going, when you get down, you're not out, there's 40 minutes in the game. Coach always expresses to our players don't give up until the game over,'' Grambling assistant coach Lou Hamilton said. ''One of the things that we showed tonight was a lot of fight, we didn't give up. ... We want to grow from that.''

UWRF Student Receives National Scholarship
OCT. 12, 2007-- A University of Wisconsin River Falls student has been awarded the National Dairy Shrine/Dairy Management Incorporated Milk Marketing Scholarship. Melissa Klein, a senior majoring in marketing communications with an agricultural emphasis from Lake City, Minn., received the scholarship that is specifically earmarked for students who have a professional passion for marketing dairy products.
Klein said it was an honor to receive such a prestigious scholarship, and that her passion for the dairy industry has been life-long.
"Growing up on a dairy farm gave me the motivation to educate consumers about where their dairy products are coming from," said Klein. "People do not realize how many billions of dollars the dairy industry creates for the state's economy."
Klein served as a county dairy princess as well as a runner-up for Minnesota's Princess Kay of the Milky Way and in those roles worked to promote the dairy industry. This summer she worked in industry relations for the Midwest Dairy Association.
Klein serves as the president of the UWRF Agricultural Communicators of Tomorrow and vice president and new member chair of Alpha Zeta. She is also involved with the UWRF Chapter of the Association of Women in Agriculture, WELS Campus Ministry and the UWRF Dairy Club. She is employed by the UWRF University Communications office as a student writer.

Across the country, a lot of attention has been given to Kevin Fine, a trial court judge setting in Houston over a state criminal court. Texas has lots of criminal courts, and Houston's Harris County has a number of folk presiding over the criminal bench -- but Judge Fine has become somewhat famous from that number because he had the temerity to take on the powers that be when he granted a single defense request for an evidentiary hearing in a pending murder case. (Actually, Judge Fine had first turned heads when he issued a ruling in the Green matter that the death penalty was unconstitutional, but he later nixed that decision and went forward on the hearing request.)
That single order, allowing a hearing to proceed, has been big news for awhile now. Why?

According to a survey of 2100 employers, world-wide, 58 percent report that they are still planning layoffs and will be cutting even more jobs in the last half of 2009. During the past few months I've been counseling a number of firms faced with having to make drastic cuts and concerned with how to execute any layoffs with dignity. That may seem like it should be the natural way to approach such a critical decision, but as these cuts have been made over the past eight months, there is ample evidence that many premiere firms did not handle their economic retrenchment with much finesse.
In this article I outline six of the more common mistakes that I call "Layoff Malpractice," five things to think through before initiating a layoff, and a dozen ways to show compassion for the emotional turmoil that layoffs cause.

World of Warcraft on 11.6" MacBook Air
I didn't see a thread on this yet and I assume there are probably others out there who want to know if the 11.6" MacBook Air can play WoW so I thought I would post my experiences.
My particular 11.6" MacBook Air is of the maxed out variety (1.6GHz, 4GB RAM, and 128GB HDD) so I can't speak for the base model. I am happy to report that WoW is perfectly playable on the MacBook Air with "Good" level graphics. Outside in Northrend produces an average of about 30 fps, which is perfectly playable. You could always turn the graphics down further and bump up the performance a little more if you needed it, say in Dalaran perhaps.
The flash memory makes the game load very quickly and characters and environment details appear the moment you log in which makes the game feel a lot faster. The fan will get VERY loud however. You can tell it's working that little processor and graphics chip hard. The machine will also get pretty warm on your lap but nowhere near as bad as my 15" MacBook Pro does.
The verdict? I wouldn't go raiding on it, but for casual questing it's just fine. It's no gaming powerhouse but the Air can hold its own, at least with the upgraded processor and RAM.
I'd love to hear from someone with a base model Air to see how it performs as well!
|Oct 29, 2010, 09:37 AM
Did you try any 5-Man's? I figured raiding is impossible but always up for smaller dungeon runs if possible
Macbook: 1.1 Ghz Core M | 256 Gb SSD | 8Gb Ram | Intel HD 5300 (IN APRIL!)
Mac Mini: 2.3Ghz i5 | 500 Gb | 8Gb Ram | Intel 3000HD
IPhone 5: 32Gb
IPad Mini:128Gb w\cellular
|Oct 29, 2010, 09:46 AM
First off, the fans will run full out, 6500 RPM, yet it is not as loud as previous gen MBA's it is more than the MBP's.
That said, I haven't played in nearly a year so I just went and downloaded the trail account. On the 13" 1.8/2gig/256ss model around the starting area, and with medium settings it was pretty much sitting on 48 to 52 FPS with no noticeable lag or slow down. WoW is not a very client intensive program so other than the GPU being loaded down when in a 5 man or above raid it shouldn't be an issue.
|Oct 29, 2010, 09:47 AM
I didn't play on it long enough to do a random dungeon, just a few solo quests, but I imagine it would work just fine. You could also turn the graphics down to Low and it would probably run 45-60 FPS in a dungeon. Indoors tend to be a whole lot less demanding than outdoors due to the visible range being so much smaller. It's really quite impressive that you get that kind of performance from such a small machine.

Air gaming thread: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1036295
good stuff though OP. great to know. i'm hoping the 11" can handle Diablo 3 at least enough for me to work on my character when i'm traveling for business.
yep, i'm a working class gaming nerd. so what!
|Nov 1, 2010, 06:55 AM
I'm pumped about Diablo III as well. Blizzard has a talent for making their games run on minimal hardware so I'd be willing to bet you'll be able to play it. It just might not look real great.
|Nov 1, 2010, 07:23 AM
Thank you thank you thank you for testing wow and finding that it works well
My 11" is only going to be 1.4ghz, but otherwise it's all the same as yours, I doubt the difference will be noticeable. Very excited to here that
|Nov 1, 2010, 07:31 AM
I found this video of an 1.6Ghz/4Gb Air running WoW and running around in dalaran. We're seeing about 15-20 fps average, but then again the guy making the video seems to run most things on "good" - I guess that turning down the options to low would give quite a few extra fps. Also, dalaran is the "heaviest" place in the game - as soon as he runs indoors we're seeing 30+ fps.
Not great, but indeed playable. I wouldn't go raiding on the Air, but questing, heroics, farming and such doesn't seem to be a problem at all
|Nov 1, 2010, 08:02 AM
It's very playable in ICC10 raiding. I did from Marrowgar through LK on my Air this past week, and it was very smooth. I run a mix of "Good" and "Fair" settings, and it was fine. Only frame rate drops were Blood Queen and LK, and even then, it didn't go below 12-14 or so. Everywhere else it hovered between 30-40.
For 25-man raiding, I could see shadows needing to get turned down further, as well as particle effects -- maybe even textures. But I'd almost bet the farm it would still be very playable.
|Nov 3, 2010, 05:48 PM
Question: does capping the frame rate down to maybe 18-25 fps help lower the heat and fan noise? It doesn't seems to help that much on my older MacBook Pro with 9400M GPU. It actually gets to hot to touch and I seriously worry about getting a lap full of molten solder spilling out.
Go outside, the graphics are amazing!

Working on "Get Over Yourself!"
You know that old adage how people are their own worst critics? Well, I earned my PhD in that. If you're going to do something, do it well, right? I've been working on the old "Get over yourself!" for a long time.
Switching friends during travel
When we were still in the US and eagerly awaiting our launch date, I picked up a couple of friends—Fear and Panic. It was easy enough to get rid of them, and I can honestly say I don't miss them. During the last three years of travel, we've picked up another friend. He makes sure we never get too bored.

For more than half a millennium, this narrow alleyway in the heart of Seoul stretched for several kilometers. Today, only a tiny stretch of Pimatgol remains, along with a wooden gate that leads into a half-block of modern storefronts. The fate of Pimatgol reflects the forward-looking trajectory of South Korea.
Committed to building a city that is safe from the threat of power crises, self-sufficient in energy and responsible for its energy use, we are exploring ways to generate energy in an eco-friendly and sustainable way. For example, we are installing mini-photovoltaic power stations on the rooftops of school buildings, apartments, and other structures, taking the maximum advantage of our high population and building density.
Korean people are friendly, and are generally welcoming to foreigners. Their society is derived from Confucian principles, which emphasize the importance of family and respect for others (specifically the elderly). These distinct customs create a bond of peace and trustworthiness among citizens and visitors.

Re: New nHancer version 2.1.0 and website!
Originally Posted by

Many many things since the last official version (1.2.2)...
But I think you're more interested in the changes since the last beta. Here they are:
Added new command line options:
/allowOverride Activates the menu item Options->Allow override of predefined options. This is meant for advanced users, who never want to get a warning when they try to change a option which is predefined by nVidia.
/forceSingle, /forceSLI, /forceQuad Overrides the detection in nHancer and forces nHancer to assume that there is a single card, SLI, or OuadSLI configuration respectively. This can be useful if the detection fails for some reason or for testing nHancers options and layout in each of those cases.
Added check to avoid that nHancer is started twice.
The warning for Color Profiles (which can no longer be created with the new nVidia control panel) is now only shown if Show experimental modes is not selected and the user is using a 96.x+ driver.
The option Anisotropic filter optimization is now only shown for pre 96-drivers or if Show experimental modes is selected. It has been removed from nVidias control panel as well and doesnt seem to have any effect anymore.
The entry prevent_cpl_aa in nvapps.xml was previously used by nVidia to disable driver enforced AA entirely for a certain game. The previous versions of nHancer listed that option as NoDriverAA. In the latest Forceware versions, the same option only disables
the games AA request. Enhancing the in-game AA setting is still allowed. nHancer now interprets it just like the nVidia control panel does, i.e. you can still activate AA in those profiles, but the enhance in-game AA cannot be deactivated.
Added help texts for all options that were missing them.
Added german translation for various options and help texts.
When reopening nHancer from its tray icon, the profile that was selected previously is now reselected and the list is scrolled correctly to show that profile again.
Corrected some minor problems when using larger DPI settings on the desktop
Bugfix: Previously, when deleting all SLI profiles (either during startup or after the user has selected the menu entry), profiles which just disabled driver AA or driver AF were also deleted.
Bugfix: The icon at VSync has been changed to Auto, since VSync seems to work fine with the current drivers, even for D3D games.

Not Since 1977, No Pulitzer For Fiction Category
By editor
The Pulitzer Prizes were awarded Monday, but not for fiction. The field had been narrowed to three finalists. Lynn Neary talks with Pulitzer fiction juror Susan Larson about why no prize was awarded in that category.

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).
Print version includes Printed Access Card

AUTHORS: Anderson/Sweeney/Williams/Camm/Martin - ©2011
Learn today's management science concepts and techniques from a leader in the field. The key purpose of this book is to provide a sound conceptual understanding of the role that management science plays in the decision-making process. AN INTRODUCTION TO MANAGEMENT SCIENCE is applications-oriented and continues to use the problem-scenario approach that has been a hallmark feature of each edition, in which a problem is described in conjunction with the management science model that's introduced. The model is then solved to generate a solution and recommendation to management.

This blowing machine is a semi-automatic device, which can blow the internal surface of various bottle kinds, with a capacity between 0.2 and 2l. The output rate is an impressive one, being influenced by the operator, with the speed of the device evaluated at 700 bottles per hour. The blowing machine comes equipped with a filter that can connect to the external compressor, with its goal being to hold the oil that can be mixed in the compressed air.
The secondary input is another addition and serves at feeding the machine with nitrogen. The semi-automatic device can also wash the internal surface of jars and bottles, working with all kinds of containers with various capacities. Last but not least, the manufacturer has also added a basin, for disinfectant and water containment, while the solution is pumped at impressive pressures.

I'm the kind of person who would rather get my hopes up really high and watch them get dashed to pieces than wisely keep my expectations at bay and hope they are exceeded. This quality has made me a needy and theatrical friend, but has given me a spectacularly dramatic emotional

It's always been incredibly challenging for me to put pen to page, because writing, at its heart, is a solitary pursuit, designed to make people depressoids, drug addicts, misanthropes, and antisocial weirdos (see every successful writer ever except Judy
The Internet also makes it extraordinarily difficult for me to focus.

In Los Angeles, cupcake bakeries are as pervasive as Starbucks. They are the product of a city with an abundance of trophy wives, because trophy wives are the financial engines of cutesy commerce that makes Los Angeles like no other American city: toe jewelry, doorknob cozies, vegan dog food, you get it. If I am sounding mean, I should tell you how envious and admiring I am of these trophy wives. I'd marry a partner at William Morris Endeavor and start a cat pedicure parlor m'self if I were so

We got the part so fast we were both surprised. My husband installed the part by just seeing how the old one came off. It was simple and fairly quick. Except that his hands are so big they had a hard time fitting in to where the part needed to go. Just opened the top of the dryer, took the old part out and put the new one in.

Make sure your site is mobile-friendly and consider modifying both your expectations of success and your specific success metrics for your mobile campaign.
Perhaps it's time for you to take advantage of the growing percentage of search queries that originate from mobile devices. Google has made it easier with a recent enhancement of the Google Keyword Tool, which lets you do keyword research specifically for mobile devices. You'll even have the option of specifying "all mobile devices" or looking at the subsets of either "mobile WAP devices" or "mobile devices with full Internet browsers," which, depending on your site's landing page and your target audience, may be just the ticket. Even desktop/laptop search queries have a local intent a significant percentage of time. According to Microsoft's internal data, mobile device search queries have local intent 53 percent of the time. Sure, people argue about trivia and use their mobile devices to look up things, but it's clear that the majority of commercial queries on smartphones will have local search intent.
Smartphones and tablets are flying out the factory doors and into the consumers' hands in the U.S. and internationally; and they all require data plans, meaning they are the beginnings of an always-on Internet experience. However, before you jump into marketing to mobile users, there are some things you should consider beyond the fact that mobile users are likely to engage with search using a different keyword set.
Mobile searchers don't transact online as frequently as desktop searchers do. So, whether you're an online retailer or looking to generate leads, you'll likely notice a drop in conversion rates with mobile marketing, with the possible exception of tablet devices such as Apple's iPad. Tablet devices have larger screens and therefore the "friction" of getting out your credit card and entering it in to transact or even to fill out a lead form relating to an area of interest is lower than for smartphones. The usage case is also different. An iPhone, Windows, or Android-powered smartphone device is on hand in the street, in restaurants, and pretty much everywhere. While tablets are highly mobile and permanently connected to "the net," most people don't carry tablets with them everywhere. The result is a mix of search queries and behaviors which differ between small-screen mobile devices and large-screen mobile devices.
If you want to dive into mobile search marketing, make sure you do the following:
Get your site mobile-friendly. If it's WAP-capable, then consider running a campaign that targets WAP devices and doing the appropriate keyword research. If you aren't WAP-capable, then you still may want to view your site in a mobile browser just to make sure it's usable or custom serve mobile pages based on the browser being used.
Consider modifying both your expectations of success and your specific success metrics for your mobile campaign. Cookie synchronization between the mobile devices and desktop devices for the purposes of tracking user behavior is a challenge. Ubiquitous log-ins (like a Google account or a Windows Live ID) may eventually form a bridge allowing for tracking across multiple screens (assuming the privacy issues are addressed), but for now, the lower transaction and conversion numbers mean we may want to modify our success metrics to include:
Perhaps you should consider giving your mobile campaign different ad creative. People have different needs when they are on a mobile device and may respond to different messaging.
You should take a look now at your AdWords settings to determine if you are already opted in to mobile search traffic. I've seen a lot of accounts where the advertiser is already opted in and didn't take into account the fact that the 4 to 10 percent of mobile search traffic with lower conversion rate would reduce ROI or, even more importantly, hamper the ability to bid higher on the campaign as a whole. If you are opted in but still want mobile traffic, I'd highly recommend that you clone one of your important campaigns and relaunch it mobile-only with different creative, different landing pages, and different bids.
Every year since 1995 has supposedly been the "Year of Mobile." Perhaps 2011 will actually be the year that mobile helps you achieve your marketing objectives.

Off to jail: Wong leaving the court after the sentencing.
IPOH: A former lecturer from Institut Teknologi Perak (ITP) was jailed a day and fined RM25,000 for accepting bribes from two students as an inducement to increase their marks for the Mathematics and Statistics papers.
Wong Chee Wai, 41, pleaded guilty at a Sessions Court here yesterday to soliciting and receiving bribes from Nor Azmira Nor Mohamad and Muhamad Faezrul Udaman.
When Wong was charged on Oct 30 last year, he had claimed trial to all charges but he changed his plea to guilty yesterday before judge Madihah Harullah.
He admitted that he received RM140 from Nor Azmira in front of the institute's library at 4.15pm on Sept 14, 2011, and accepted RM140 from her as an inducement to increase her marks in the Mathematics paper for the first semester, in front of a classroom at the institute in Greentown Square at 3pm on Oct 12, 2011.
For the first two charges, he was jailed a day and fined RM11,000, in default eight months' jail.
Wong also admitted to agreeing to accept RM250 from Muhamad Faezrul Udaman, also as an inducement to increase his marks for the Statistics paper, at the institute at 4pm on Oct 10, 2011.
He was also charged with accepting RM300 from Muhamad Faezrul on Feb 3, 2012. He admitted to accepting the bribe on Feb 8, 2012.
For these charges, he was sentenced to a day's jail and fined RM14,000, in default 10 months' jail. The jail terms were ordered to be served concurrently.
Deputy Public Prosecutor A. Hafiizh Abu Bakar from the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission prosecuted.
In mitigation, Wong's counsel M. Kathan requested for a lighter sentence, stating that his client had a wife, aged parents and a nine-year-old special needs child to look after.
Kathan said that after Wong was sacked from ITP, he was giving private home tuition and was not earning much.
"My client is also seeking treatment from Hospital Bahagia Ulu Kinta as he is suffering from severe depression and obsessive compulsive disorder after the incident," he added.
