Dynamic Tabular Form
1. You have an unknow number of tables
2. You don't know the structure of the tables in advance
3. You still need forms for entering and maintaining data
The only solution that comes to my mind are dynamically created tabular forms. Tabular forms have already a bad reputation. Now, if you add the word "dynamical" to it, it will sound even more horrorful.
As I promised in the mentioned thread, I tried to create a working example. This is what I came up with:
It took me arround three hours to get that code together. Of course, this can be done much better - using a package and providing some additional functionalities like validations and other item types.

Hi Denes,
just a security hint about your code.
The code isn't really SQL injection save, you should protect your access to :p195_tables with the DBMS_Assert.enquote_name. Have a look at Carstens blog. This will prevent SQL injections in your processes.
- 7 August 2008 at 21:26
- Denes Kubicek said...
Thanks. This wasn't my focus.
Just out of curiosity. Could you show how you would inject some SQL there?
- 7 August 2008 at 21:44
- Patrick Wolf said...
SQL injections are most time not the intention of the developer :-)
But because probably a lot of developers are looking/using your code I wanted to bring it to your attention.
About the instructions, the easiest reproducible steps are for the delete process:
1) select eg. employees to populate the tabular form
2) Use Firebug/whatever to change the value of P195_TABLES to
3) Select the row selector checkbox for one of the records
4) Press the delete button
The -- at the end of the above value will comment out the rest of you code where you add the where clause, ... and will do a full delete on any table I specify.
Note, I haven't tried it out because I didn't want to make you mad :-)

Did you notice this line in one of the forum from the authors' replies?
it is also a final project from university and we want
a solution that is implemented and it works in
the best possible way.
Maybe you're cooler than me (that's almost guaranteed!) but should we really be helping these guys with their final exam? Personally I don't appreciate it when students pose questions in these forums instead of learning on their own.
- 7 August 2008 at 23:21
- Denes Kubicek said...
O.K. this was an issue. Thanks for pointing that out. I modified the code a bit and now it is secure.

Hi Denes,
This is a great little application!
I've looked at the code and it looks like this should still work in the latest version of APEX4.1... Do you agree?
Given the added features of APEX 4.1 would you suggest there is a better way of implementing a dynamic tabular form or updateable datagrid?

CLEVELAND --We wanted to know how clean school cafeterias are in Cuyahoga County, so we requested hundreds of inspection reports from the Cuyahoga County Board of Health.
Twice a year, the Cuyahoga County Board of Health inspects school cafeterias.
We asked for reports going back at least two years for seven school districts -- Solon, Garfield Heights, Maple Heights, Parma, Lakewood, Westlake and North Royalton.
The County Health Department says for the most part schools in Cuyahoga County get an "A."
We also have included these reports for you.

LOWVILLE Youve probably driven right past Doyles Pub in West Lowville and didnt even know it was there.
The tiny eatery is at Routes 12 and 177. The outside of the pub has no curb appeal whatsoever it looks like an old trailer that has undergone crude additions over the years.
The parking lot was overflowing. We had to join other cars parked on the shoulder of the highway. There was a noticeable smell of fryer grease wafting from the building.
We entered through the small bar area tight, cramped, slightly odoriferous with a worn tile floor bustling with locals and a few end-of-season snowmobilers on a Friday evening. A friendly crew with a few f-bombs flying at the far end. I tried to strike up a conversation with an old-timer on a barstool next to me and couldnt understand a word he was saying.
Its been a while since Ive seen Genny and Genny Cream in a bar, but there they were staring at us from inside the large glass-front cooler that separates the bar from the dining room and the rest rooms. But there are choices like Sam Adams Alpine Spring, too, and a good selection of liquor for mixed drinks.
The beer was fairly priced at $3.75, and a Captain & Coke was a real deal at $2.75. Our bartender didnt have any rye to make a rye and ginger, she said, so we spotted Seagrams 7 and asked for that with ginger ale instead, similarly bargain-priced.
On to the dining area small and cozy, a little bright compared to the bar, shellacked knotty pine and brick veneer walls from the 70s. There were six tables, at best, all occupied throughout the evening. We were seated at a table across from the open door to the kitchen.
Our pleasant young server, Randi, was tableside in a flash, order pad in hand, and asked, Are you ready to order, or did you need menus? Guess the regulars have the menu memorized, but being out-of-towners, we decided to look it over first.
Dinners are served every Friday and Saturday night. The menu contains about a dozen down-home, home-cooked, right-priced choices. In addition, fish fry is the specialty on Friday, prime rib on Saturday.
Appetizers consisted exclusively of typical deep-fried delicacies that weve all had elsewhere before, so we decided to dive right into dinner.
We ordered maple chicken ($9.99), hamburger steak ($10.49), pork chop ($8.99) and fried haddock dinner ($11.99).
First impressions mean a lot, and the glob of ketchup caked on the outside of the red ketchup squeeze bottle on the table was not a good one.
A trip to the bathrooms was interesting too. It was cold in there. REALLY cold. We thought wed taken a wrong turn and ended up in the walk-in cooler. More complaints from the ladies than the guys. Understandable.
Back to the food.
Salads came with our meals, nice, crisp torn iceberg lettuce, uniformly diced fresh tomato, large slices of yellow onion and cucumber. Perfectly acceptable bottled dressing was served in a plastic side container.
The maple chicken was quite unusual and very good. A chicken breast with a bit of the skin still intact was lightly breaded and quickly fried. The chicken was moist, the breading was exceptionally light and crispy, and real maple syrup was drizzled over the chicken which was surprisingly not soggy. A small side of syrup was supplied as well.
Hamburger steak was nicely done. Its pan-seared ground beef which, by itself, would be nothing special. But Doyles version was smothered with a thick, tasty brown gravy with large slices of saut�ed onions and canned mushrooms.
Randi had asked earlier for our preference of doneness, and our request of rare was pretty much honored. We were expecting metallic-tasting canned gravy, but someone in the kitchen had taken the time to make this gravy flavorful and homemade-tasting.
As for the pork chop, we were not asked for doneness. It arrived appetizingly char-grilled but was cooked more than we would have liked, so it was a bit dry and a little tough.
There is an option with the pork chop and the maple chicken where you can get an additional chop or chicken breast for a $2 upcharge.
Finally, the piece de resistance, the reason we had to park on the highway, the reason we had to wait at the bar until a table opened, the reason we were there: Doyles Friday fish fry.
On the menu, the fried haddock dinner is $11.99. On a chalkboard on the wall, the fish fry is priced at $9.49. We asked Randi what the difference was. She said nobody had ever asked her that, but she was pretty sure the fish fry included just the fish.
So we went with the haddock dinner. Two thick pieces of haddock were lightly battered and nicely fried. We would have preferred it had a little longer dip in the fryer for an extra crispy bite, but it was certainly OK tasty and relatively nongreasy (compared to the aroma outside the building earlier).
We assumed the kitchen has a dedicated fryer for fish, or at least changes the fryer oil regularly, because the fish actually tasted like fish no hint of chicken wings or onion rings or anything like that.
A side of mashed potatoes, according to the mashed potato expert at the table was AMAZING smashed red-skin potatoes with some of the skin still intact that had great taste of butter and milk and lumps of spud-lisciousnes!
The mashed potatoes came with all of our entrees except one that came with commercial french fries. Peas and carrots were the veggies du jour, and reminded a teacher at our table of school lunch. Coleslaw was creamy with a hint of sweetness excellent.
Homemade desserts were $3 each: peach cobbler, coconut cream pie, chocolate cream pie and apple pie sundae.
Peach cobbler was the real deal, seasoned with cinnamon and served with a blob of fake whipped cream.
Coconut cream pie had grated coconut in the custard, a nice touch, we thought, but the custard itself was an unnatural yellow color. Chocolate cream pie was basic chocolate pudding in a basic pie shell.
The apple pie sundae was outstanding, a parfait glass filled with homemade applesauce with thinly sliced apples and cinnamon mixed with scoops of vanilla ice cream. The sauce was warmed so that the ice cream melted in the tall glass as you worked your way to the bottom.
Dinner for four, before drinks and tip, came to $58.15. Be forewarned: Doyles does not accept credit cards.
All during dinner, we watched customers walk right into the kitchen and strike up a conversation with, we assumed, the cook. We jokingly asked Randi if we could wander around the kitchen too, and she said sure, go ahead.
We didnt have to. Chef/owner Sue Doyle came out and worked the room while we were finishing dessert. She plopped herself down at an available chair at our table and started chatting away.
Shes owned the place for over a decade. Before that, she had experience cooking at the fine-dining restaurant Greystone Manor. Shes a good cook with a loyal following, as evidenced by her greeting guests in the dining room and the parade through her kitchen.
She also revealed the secret to her apple pie sundae: I stole it from Rachael Ray on TV!
Too bad you werent here when we had some of my berry pies, she commented.
Then she looked at me and said, So when are we going to be in the newspaper?
And I would have had some fun with her, except Im pretty sure Sue has the ability to arm-wrestle me to the floor.
Randi, as it turns out, is Sues niece. She was quite attentive, brought the food out in a timely fashion, despite a busy night. And she never had to ask who got what.
Turn up the heat in the bathrooms, clean up that ketchup bottle and well be back some Saturday to try out that prime rib.

About High Blood Pressure
High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a condition that has no symptoms you can see or feel. Having your blood pressure checked is the only way to know if it is high.
Yet, untreated hypertension can result in serious illnesses, such as coronary artery disease, heart attack, stroke and kidney failure, according to the American Heart Association (AHA).
Diet and lifestyle changes may be enough to control mildly elevated blood pressure. But your doctor may prescribe blood pressure medication and lifestyle changes if your blood pressure is moderately to severely high.
The AHA says the following lifestyle choices can help reduce your blood pressure.
Don't smoke
Inhaling cigarette smoke stimulates your heart, making it beat faster. It also narrows your blood vessels, causing your blood pressure to rise temporarily. Smoking, however, does not cause high blood pressure. The reason smoking is bad if you have high blood pressure is because both contribute to heart disease, meaning hardening of the arteries and heart attacks.
Maintain a healthy weight
Studies have found people who lose weight also lower their blood pressure. To lose weight safely, eat fewer foods high in fat and calories and increase your physical activity.
Exercise regularly
Regular aerobic exercise tones your heart, blood vessels and muscles and keeps your blood pressure low. Consult your doctor before beginning an exercise regimen if you have high blood pressure.
Learn to cope with stress
Stress may temporarily raise blood pressure, but it is not a cause of chronic high blood pressure. Meditate, listen to stress-management tapes or do relaxation exercises daily.
Drink moderately
If you drink alcohol, do so only in moderation. Heavy, regular consumption of alcohol can increase blood pressure dramatically. Experts recommend no more than two drinks a day for a man and one drink a day for a woman.
Healthy eating and limit your salt intake
The DASH diet, or Dietary Approaches to Stopping Hypertension, is an effective eating plan proved to lower blood pressure. It doesn't require special foods; instead, it recommends a certain number of servings from a variety of food groups -- vegetables, fruits, fat-free or low-fat milk, whole grains, fish, poultry, beans, seeds, and nuts. It also calls for limiting sugar, fats, and red meat, and for reducing salt (sodium) intake to 2,300 mg (about 1 teaspoon of table salt) or 1,500 mg (two-thirds teaspoon of table salt) daily. Following the DASH diet and keeping salt intake to 1,500 mg per day has shown the biggest benefit for blood pressure reduction in people with high blood pressure. The 2010 recommendations by the U.S. Department of Agriculture say you should limit your sodium consumption to less than 2,300 mg per day. The daily sodium intake is 1,500 mg for African-Americans and for people diagnosed with hypertension, diabetes, or chronic kidney disease, as well as individuals ages 51 and older.
Take your medicine
Follow these guidelines if your doctor prescribes blood pressure medication:
Take all your medication as prescribed.
Take your pills at the same time each day.
Never skip your pills because you have side effects or don't believe your blood pressure is high. Call your doctor to discuss your concerns.
Refill your prescription before it runs out.
Don't stop taking your medication because your blood pressure tests normal. It's normal because you're taking the medication.

Pronounced: FLURE-oh-UE-ra-sil
Classification: Antimetabolite
Fluorouracil exerts its anti-cancer effect by preventing synthesis of DNA and RNA in the cell by significantly decreasing thymine (a nucleotide that is one of the building blocks of DNA). Lack of functional DNA and RNA prevent the cancer cell from reproducing and making vital proteins, which results in death of the cell. In this way, fluorouracil slows or stops the growth of cancer cells in your body.
Fluorouracil can be given as an intravenous (into a vein) infusion over a period of 12-24 hours. It also comes as a topical cream, which should be applied 10 minutes after thoroughly washing, rinsing and drying the affected area. It can be given alone or with other drugs.
There are a number of things you can do to manage the side effects of Fluorouracil. Talk to your doctor or nurse about these recommendations. They can help you decide what will work best for you. These are some of the most common side effects:
White blood cells (WBC) are important for fighting infection. While receiving treatment, your WBC count can drop, putting you at a higher risk of getting an infection. You should let your doctor or nurse know right away if you have a fever (temperature greater than 100.4 F), sore throat or cold, shortness of breath, cough, burning with urination, or a sore that doesn't heal.
Tips to preventing infection:
For more suggestions, read the Neutropenia Tip Sheet.
Your red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen to the tissues in your body. When the red cell count is low, you may feel tired or weak. You should let your doctor or nurse know if you experience any shortness of breath, difficulty breathing or pain in your chest. If the count gets too low, you may receive a blood transfusion. Read the anemia tip sheet for more information.
Platelets help your blood clot, so when the count is low you are at a higher risk of bleeding. Let your doctor or nurse know if you have any excess bruising or bleeding, including nosebleeds, bleeding gums or blood in your urine or stool. If your platelet count becomes too low, you may receive a transfusion of platelets.
Read the thrombocytopenia tip sheet for more information.
Take anti-nausea medications as prescribed. If you continue to have nausea or vomiting, notify your doctor or nurse so they can help you manage this side effect. In addition, dietary changes may help. Avoid things that may worsen the symptoms, such as heavy or greasy/fatty, spicy or acidic foods (lemons, tomatoes, oranges). Try antacids, (e.g. milk of magnesia, calcium tablets such as Tums), saltines, or ginger ale to lessen symptoms. Read the Nausea & Vomiting Tip Sheet for more suggestions.
Call your doctor or nurse if you are unable to keep fluids down for more than 12 hours or if you feel lightheaded or dizzy at any time.
Your oncology team can recommend medications to relieve diarrhea. Also, try eating low-fiber, bland foods, such as white rice and boiled or baked chicken. Avoid raw fruits, vegetables, whole grain breads, cereals and seeds. Soluble fiber is found in some foods that absorbs fluid and can help relieve diarrhea. Foods high in soluble fiber include: applesauce, bananas (ripe), canned fruit, orange and grapefruit sections, boiled potatoes, white rice and products made with white flour, oatmeal, cream of rice, cream of wheat, and farina. Drink 8-10 glasses on non-alcoholic, un-caffeinated fluid a day to prevent dehydration. Read Low Fiber Diet for Diarrhea for more tips.
Visit OncoLink's section on Nutrition for tips on dealing with this side effect. Ask your nurse about nutritional counseling services.
Certain cancer treatments can cause sores or soreness in your mouth and/or throat. Notify your doctor or nurse if your mouth, tongue, inside of your cheek or throat becomes white, ulcerated or painful. Performing regular mouth care can help prevent or manage mouth sores. If mouth sores become painful, your doctor or nurse can recommend a pain reliever.
Read the mouth ulcer tip sheet for more information.
Your fingernails/toenails may become dark, brittle or fall off. You may notice dry skin or changes in the color or tone of your skin. Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun, which can result in severe sunburn or rash. Sun sensitivity can last even after chemotherapy is completed. Avoid the sun between 10-2pm, when it is strongest. Wear sunscreen (at least SPF 15) everyday, wear sunglasses and long sleeves/pants to protect your skin. Keep your fingernails and toenails clean and dry. You may use nail polish, but do not wear fake nails. Notify your doctor or nurse if any nails fall off. For more suggestions, read the Nail and Skin Care Tip Sheet.
May cause darkening of the veins. Call your doctor or nurse if the vein used for injection becomes red, swollen, or painful at anytime during or after the injection. Do not apply anything to the site unless instructed by your doctor or nurse.

Video: 24/7 Mayweather vs. Ortiz: First Look..Plus Inside Info on Shantel Jackson
by Robert Littal | Posted on Wednesday, August 24th, 2011
When 24/7 Mayweather vs. Ortiz debuts on August 27th we will be exactly three weeks before the big fight. I am going to break down the keys to victory at later date, but it is pretty clear cut.
In the video we see Mayweather doing what Mayweather does.
The one change up is that Mayweather says he will set the record straight on his fiancee' Shantel Jackson (pictures above) which should be interesting because most people assume that relationship isn't real.
Personally I just can't wait to hear Roger Mayweather's philosophies on life, that always bring joy to my day.

Audiences will get their first look at Felony, a psychological thriller about guilt, conscience, punishment and forgiveness, at the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival. At the heart of the story is a moral dilemma. The central character is a detective, who after a few celebratory beers with pals, hits a boy with his car on the way home. He impulsively lies to the emergency operator and to law enforcement when they arrive. A friend tries to help him cover his tracks, but another detective isn't quite buying their story. The ensuing three-way psychological struggle unfolds over the course of three intense days.
"I couldn't dismiss (the detective's) actions as simply being 'wrong' because I understood he was trying to protect his own family," says director Matthew Saville. "In this film, nobody wears a white hat or a black hat, and if they're wearing a halo, it's a crooked halo – and I just think that's a closer reflection of life. It's very honest."
Felony was filmed over eight weeks on locations in Sydney, Australia. Saville, whose film Noise was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival, teamed with director of photography Mark Wareham, ACS, reuniting after their previous success, the Showtime dramatic miniseries Cloudstreet. The Felony cast includes Joel Edgerton, Tom Wilkinson, Jai Courtney and Melissa George.
For the look of Felony, Saville and Wareham were inspired by the imagery in classic thrillers like Alan Pakula's Klute (1971, photographed by Gordon Willis, ASC) and Francis Ford Coppola's The Conversation (1974, photographed by Bill Butler, ASC and Haskell Wexler, ASC). Also mentioned were other iconoclastic directors of the 1970s like Arthur Penn, John Schlesinger, Robert Altman and Hal Ashby. The challenge, according to Saville, was to depict the complex internal emotions of the characters. The filmmakers arrived at a classic approach.
"We tested film and digital, but film had the textural quality that we felt was right," says Wareham. "Matt believes in film, and was looking forward to shooting celluloid again. Our shooting style was relatively straightforward. The story is about coming out of the shadow into the light, and we wanted to represent that in some of our scenes. Film's ability to render blacks worked well with that."
They chose a widescreen 2.40:1 aspect ratio, and shot 3-perf spherical, which gave them the additional flexibility to shoot longer takes, and some room to reframe in post. "Composition is a very important aspect of Matt's sensibility," says Wareham. "He has a real knack for using negative space in interesting ways to underscore the drama and the characters."
The classic, straightforward approach extended to the camera movement, which often consisted of slow push-ins, combined with "deliberate and understated" editing. A handheld camera was avoided with the exception of a scene at the opening of the film.
The film stocks were KODAK VISION3 500T Color Negative Film 5219 and KODAK VISION3 250D Color Negative Film 5207. Wareham often rated the 500-speed film at E.I. 320, and the 250-speed daylight-balanced film at E.I. 160 to achieve the textured look he was after. The camera package included an ARRICAM Studio with an ARRICAM Lite used for rig and Steadicam. Lenses included Cooke S4s and Angenieux Optimo Zooms.
One important scene is the nighttime car accident that the story is built around. The audience witnesses the events through the eyes of several characters. Wareham had to shoot the same event several times. The crew wasn't able to control the intersection, which added to the complexity. "We didn't have five Condors," says Wareham. "We lit with existing sodium vapor streetlights and augmented where we could. That's where the ability of the film and the lenses to handle mixed color temperatures really came through for us."
"Shooting on film is so solid," he continues. "With our budget and schedule, we had to be efficient. Shooting film restores autonomy to the cinematographer. The assistant director likes it because there are fewer cooks, which means we can move faster. We often shot two takes and moved on, with confidence."
Wareham's crew consisted of four electricians, three grips and a small camera crew. "We had a small, nimble team," he says. "It's ironic that smaller budget films like Felony are now more likely to be done on film. On a recent shoot I did with a digital format, we had a whole fleet of huge trucks. I found myself taking more time to light in order to create depth and separation with the digital camera. On Felony, the camera truck was a single van. It was the right scale for this project."
The digital intermediate was done at Deluxe in Sydney. The colorist was Olivier Fontenay. "The DI was so easy," says Wareham. "It actually took a week less than we had planned. We created most of the look in camera, and the images looked great.
"Cinematography is about creating a world," Wareham concludes. "There are a million reality shows out there – we don't need more reality."

MASSENA - A balance must be struck between protecting the environment and preserving the economy as Alcoa decides whether to modernize its Massena facilities, according to several elected officials.
Sen. Charles E. Schumer visited Wednesday and urged the Environmental Protection Agency to fast-track the proposed cleanup of the Grasse River, which Alcoa will fund. For more than 20 years, Alcoa has worked with state and federal agencies to remediate contaminated areas near its Massena East and West Plants, and cleaning up a several-mile stretch of the river is the next stop in that process.
The 10 cleanup options range from doing nothing to completing nearly $1 billion in remediation, EPA officials said. Alcoa, the north countrys largest private employer, wants to know how much that cleanup will cost before it decides next year whether to modernize.
Any Grasse River cleanup option chosen has to be cost effective for Alcoa, according to County Legislator Gregory M. Paquin. He fears a river cleanup thats too costly could jeopardize the plant modernization, and balked at the $1 billion estimate.
If the modernization doesnt happen, I fear for the viability of those two plants, Mr. Paquin said. If we lose Alcoa, this place could become a ghost town.
Mayor James F. Hidy also worried about Alcoas future in Massena if an environmental cleanup became too costly.
You can only go to the well so many times before a private company says its just not worth it, he said.
The St. Regis Mohawk Tribal Council goal is to return the river to a state where fish from there could be edible again. A warning has been posted along the effected section of the Grasse for a number of years warning residents and fishermen not to eat any fish caught in that area, which have been found to be contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).
Mr. Hidy down played the threat of consuming fish from the Grasse River and said he would eat one from there.
If you eat 30 pounds of fish a day for 13 years, yeah, youre going to have a problem, he said. Ive seen no one thats contaminated enough that they shine in the dark at night.
Supervisor Joseph D. Gray said the river has already been extensively studied for the last 20 years. He agreed with Mr. Schumers call for action.
We should be easily able to find a balance between the economy and the environment, he said. Its a bit idealistic to return the river to the state it was before Alcoa existed.
As town supervisor, Mr. Gray said he is concerned about both about the health of one of Massenas rivers and the economy. But he is encouraged by Alcoas research indicating the rivers pollution levels have fallen over 20 years with preventative actions.
Nobodys faulting the science theyre using Nobodys questioning the data. Its good science, Mr. Gray said. Senator Schumers comments were welcome. We need to move this thing forward.
How much more time to we need? Its been going on for at least a decade. Lets get it done, he added.
Mr. Schumer was not calling for EPA to compromise the cleanup in any way for the sake of commerce, County Legislator Anthony J. Arquiett said. He wants the cleanup process to get underway as soon as possible so Alcoa has the information it needs.
I hope theres a happy medium there. I dont think anyone in any way wants to be lax in their concern for the environment, he said. We need to make sure there are no surprises for Alcoa.
A $200 million cleanup option proposed by Mr. Schumer on Wednesday, a combination of capping and dredging the river, would be sufficent, according to Mr. Schumers spokeswoman Meredith Kelly.
Sen. Schumer is focused on the healthiest balance between the north country economy and north country environment, she said in an email.
County Legislator Jonathan Putney said he was confident Mr. Schumers proposal was sufficient and that the modernization will come to fruition.
I have faith that their plan is going to get the job done correctly, he said. Alcoas modernization will go a long way in providing stabilization to the north country economy.

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate reporter
A routine traffic stop inside the Price city limits led to a significant drug arrest late last week as Price Police Officer Stephen Regruto, in conjunction with the Carbon Metro Drug Task Force, seized a variety of suspected illegal narcotics.
According to Price City Police Sgt. Bill Barnes, the arrest led to the confiscation of approximately eight grams of suspected methamphetamine, nearly three grams of suspected cocaine, psychotropic mushrooms and two fentanyl transdermal patches along with other illegal drugs and reported paraphernalia.
"This is some of the best police work I have seen in quite some time," commented Barnes while explaining Officer Regruto's bust. "A routine traffic stop turned into a sizable drug arrest because of good police work."
A press release issued by Price City Police Capt. Kevin Drolc on Thursday confirmed that Dharma Gray Smith, 32, was booked into the Carbon County Jail on May 25 after he was found to be in possession of what police allege was variety of controlled substances during a traffic stop in Price.
According to Drolc, the incident began when Regruto stopped Smith for a purported traffic violation in the area of Cedar Hills Drive and Sagewood Road. Subsequent to Smith's initial arrest Regruto discovered a variety of controlled substances in Smith's car. The manner in which the drugs were discovered caused the officer to bring in the area's drug task officials.
"The quantity and manner in which the drugs were packaged led officers to believe the narcotics were prepared for unlawful distribution," stated Drolc in the release.
Smith was subsequently booked into the Carbon County Jail for crimes including: distribution of a controlled substance, possession of a controlled substance, possession of paraphernalia and driving on a suspended license.
"The drug problem in Carbon County is something we are constantly working against," explained Sgt. Barnes following the arrest. "Currently we have seen a swing toward heroin and prescription pills abuse in the area but meth is still around, there's no doubt about that."
According to Barnes, the influx of heroin currently being seen in the Castle Valley has just as much to do with economics as anything else.
"The individuals we talk to report that heroin is cheaper than prescription meds and therefore is making a comeback," he said. "In addition to being cheaper it is also very dangerous and as a police force we are doing everything possible to fight its abuse."

LONDON (MarketWatch)—European stock markets erased losses to finish in positive territory on Tuesday, after reports said a cease-fire could be at hand imminently in the Middle East and U.S. housing data surprised to the upside.
Markets had spent most of the early session in negative territory as investors mulled France's loss of its triple-A credit rating and nervously awaited a meeting of euro-zone finance ministers to discuss Greece's future financing needs.
The Stoxx Europe 600 index SXXP, +0.33% closed 0.3% higher at 269.49, adding to gains after the benchmark put in its best daily performance in more than two months in the Monday session.
UBS trader guilty on two counts
Former UBS trader Kweku Adoboli was found guilty on two counts of fraud in connection with a $2.3 billion loss for the Swiss bank.
U.S. stocks traded mildly lower over the course of European trade, in contrast to Monday's big rally. Wall Street posted a lukewarm reaction to data that showed construction on new homes rose to the highest rate in more than four years in October. See: Housing starts highest in more than four years.
U.S. stock indexes turned positive in recent action.
"Most of the news flow is pointing in different directions. Obviously we had good data on the U.S. housing market and then overnight there was the downgrade of France. It may be a lagging indicator, but it tells you something about that the market will scrutinize the French economy more than we have been used to," said Peter Garnry, equity strategist at Saxo Bank.
"We expect the volatility to increase from here and markets could blow up if things turn ugly with the fiscal cliff. It is a serious matter and will influence sentiment on the short term, but it won't derail the U.S. economy in the long term," he said.
Shares of Credit Suisse Group AG CSGN, +0.85% CS, +0.98% sustained one of the biggest losses in the Stoxx Europe 600, closing down 1.7%. The investment bank said it would reorganize its business to form a new wealth-management division.
Shares of Anglo-Swiss miner Xstrata PLC UK:XTA rose 3.1%, after the firm's shareholders approved a proposed merger with commodity giant Glencore International PLC GLEN, +7.00% but rejected a controversial retention-pay package for executives. Glencore's shareholders approved the merger earlier in the day. Shares of Glencore moved 1.6% higher. See: Xstrata approves Glencore merger without bonuses
The broader stock markets reversed in late action after Egypt's president Mohammed Morsi reportedly said a cease-fire agreement between Israel and Hamas could come as soon as Tuesday. The comments came ahead of a visit by U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in an attempt to halt the escalation of violence in the region. See: Egypt's Morsi: Gaza cease-fire possible Tuesday and See: Hillary Clinton to travel to Middle East: reports
France stripped of triple-A rating
France's finances were also in the spotlight. Moody's Investors Service late Monday cut the country's sovereign-credit rating by one notch to Aa1, stripping its coveted triple-A rating. The credit-rating firm expressed concern about France's uncertain fiscal outlook and kept the outlook negative.
Strategists noted, however, that the move had little lasting impact on the euro, while French bond yields crept only slightly higher. See: Why markets shrug off France downgrade for now.
Meanwhile, euro-zone finance ministers met in Brussels, with a decision whether to grant Greece its next tranche of bailout money high on the agenda. See: Greece shouldn't expect debt write-down: ESM chief

The Research In Motion QNX BlackBerry is a device that has been highly anticipated and has continued to allow the company to put together an exciting device that could help them to regain some of the market share that they have lost throughout the years. This new device is one that is going to really bring them back into the forefront. It will be sold by a total of 225 carriers from around the world. This will allow them to offer their phones to in an entirely new audience. Included in these new phones will be the Blackberry seven phones which will include the Bold, Curve and Torch models.
With Research In Motion launching these new unlocked Blackberry seven smart phones across the globe, it will be the final batch that will feature the smart devices as they have been seen recently. They have been losing market share at a steady pace and have continued to operate in a way that has not allowed them to better suit the needs of customers.
However in this newest line of smart devices, they are putting themselves in a position to aggressively target the market that they have lost. In the past Research In Motion has been seen as a company that has only made devices for the business crowd, and they are looking to continue to cater to the business crowd while still also garnering a personal use on. This new line of phones will allow them to have a better idea about both, and will also allow them to aggressively expand to new markets if they so desire.
So far, analysis companies have been a bit confused as to what the future looks like for the company. They have been putting together a large number of different devices for their upcoming push to regain market share. It will be interesting to see if they are able to be successful moving forward.
PureMobile carries wide range of cell phone accessories and unlocked cell phone such as unlocked Blackberry Bold 9900, Blackberry Torch 9800, etc…

Read: The World Championships Could Have An Olympic Feel This Year
At ESPN.com, Pierre LeBrun writes that if the NHL season is cancelled then the annual World Championships this spring will have a very different feel than usual.
The World Championships take place during the playoffs so the top players usually don't participate but that would change if there are no playoffs this year and the lockout takes out the whole season.
LeBrun speculates that the World Championships this spring would be similar to the tournament in 2005 which featured Rick Nash, Joe Thornton, Pavel Datsyuk and other locked out NHLers.
He writes "just consider it an Olympic tournament less than a year before the real Olympic tournament in Sochi, Russia."
The World Championships take place in Stockholm and Helsinki and start on May 3.

Even though I'm writing this column a week in advance, I think that I can predict with eerie, Nostradamus-like skills that it is cold, it is wet and it is utterly miserable outside. As temperatures drop and shoes made of natural fibres begin to degrade due to extreme schlepping through slush, it becomes more and more convenient to shop online.
I don't need to extoll the many advantages of shopping online; if you have an internet connection and a credit card, then you'll know what they are. However, buying presents from the safety of a small screen poses one quite distinct problem.
Buying online usually means not buying Irish. Not pumping money into the local economy means less money for everyone. I've skipped a few logical steps there, but this is not an economics column and I am not John Maynard Keynes.
Buy Irish, if you can. This is easy when it comes to fresh produce; we're very lucky in Ireland in that respect. When it comes to fashion though, we literally are floating out on an island on our own.
But, and this labours the metaphor further, there are a limited number of life preservers to grab on to.
Craft fairs. One of the unexpectedly great things about a recession is seeing the reserve of strength and creativity being mined by an ever-increasing amount of people in Ireland. Stalls at craft fairs are no longer loaded with tat and fake-turquoise necklaces; now we can buy jewellery that isn't self-consciously 'crafty' or homespun-looking but slickly executed. The democratisation of fashion makes professional techniques and materials more accessible, so your crafts are going to be of a better quality. Many designers and vintage sellers can be found at craft fairs. I quite like the The Fair Alternative, which is held in the old Unitarian Church near the English Market (next date – 8th of December).
Shop locally – online. I know, I know I said earlier that shopping online was the devil, but there's always a loophole when Beelzebub is involved. Etsy (etsy.com) is a global marketplace but you can search for shops based in Ireland. The new kid on the block, Prowlster (theprowlster.com) is an online magazine-cum-boutique that sell the best of Irish designers, including jeweller Merle O'Grady and designer Emma Manley. If you can't choose just one thing, Prowlster also offer gift vouchers.
Local boutiques. If you have to buy that British-label dress, think about buying it in a local shop instead of online. While it's important to shop for the best price, don't immediately expect things to be cheaper online – you may be pleasantly surprised. You'd also be surprised at how many boutique owners are willing to haggle, which is more than can be said for online high-street retailers (trust me, I've tried).
Buying Irish this year isn't just an easy way to give something unique to the person you love. It's also a way for use to sew a tiny thread of confidence back into a country that has been torn, socially and economically, into shreds. If everyone does this, we make the first step towards mending ourselves.

Note: Arron Asham Will Fit In With The Rangers
The Rangers signed Arron Asham to a two-year deal worth $2 million to help replace Brandon Prust who signed with Montreal.
On the day he signed 58% of readers said that they did not like the move to sign Asham.
His former teammate Mike Rupp told Blueshirts United that Asham plays a Rangers style of hockey "He has that no-nonsense approach, the style we like to play here. He also has a great shot and can contribute some offense, too, so I think it's great we added him."
On what he can add, Asham said earlier in the summer "I'm still capable of going out there and giving you a good 10 or 12 minutes and contributing offensively. I'll fight when the team needs me to. I haven't lost much of the fighting skills."
Rupp admitted "I didn't really like him at first, but once I played with him I really grew to like him and really respect the way he plays."

Where we've been:
It was a Saturday afternoon (March 13, 2010) when Brian Guerra and Robert Menn were, as usual, discussing a relevant sports topic of the day. They each made a few good points and then moved on. As they repeated this a few times, they came to the realization — albeit, possibly arrogant realization –that they should be publishing these opinions, even if only for them and some friends to check out. Neither of them clearly remembers how the name for the site came about, except it sounded decent and was easy enough to remember.
Both were semi-writing for other online websites, but weren't 100% into it, as the views of those who ran them and theirs ran counter to each other. So as Robert began slowly writing the first few posts for SportsNickel.com, Brian began work on the first version of the site, which went live on that Wednesday, the 17th. Robert "Hype Machine" Menn began telling everyone about it, and a few other writers wanted in. Within a few days, traffic was jumping. SportsNickel.com was seeing more visitors than the other two sites they wrote for combined. We realized we were onto something, so Robert, the MMA Guru, kept the content fresh while Brian decided to overhaul what was only a two-week old website.
Where we're at:
On April 13, version 2.0 of the website went live, and it seems to be doing pretty well. It featured a cosmetic, as well as backend, update, which took Brian some long nights to tweak everything.
Where we're going:
Coming soon

- Council Registration - paperwork that must be done by week 2 of Fall Quarter or any time during the year when Council officers or Forum representatives change.
- Council Budget Information
- Council Requisition and Reimbursement Process
- Requisition Checklist
According to GSA governing documents, Councils must follow certain governing procedures and keep certain records. These requirements are stated in the GSA Codes section 2 "Councils" and section 10 "Financial Policies." Council officers are responsible for becoming familiar with the GSA Constitution and Codes and making sure that Councils follow them. Some requirements are: having and following a Council Constitution (which must contain certain elements), meeting twice a quarter, keeping accurate meeting minutes and submitting them to the GSA office, as well as being responsible for the Council budget, Council financial records, and approving and processing all Council and departmental expenditures.
Departmental chapters of GSA are responsible for selecting departmental representative(s) to their Council, and Council officers are responsible for contacting and informing departmental representives of Council meeting times. (Departmental Student Affairs officers should also be contacted for help in locating departmental representatives.) It is the responsibility of Councils, especially outgoing officers and departmental representatives, to ensure a smooth transition from one academic year to the next. Departments who do not participate in the Council process may lose their portion of funds.
Registration Process:
Councils need to meet by week 2 of Fall Quarter in order to select officers, Forum delegates, and complete Steps A & B of the registration process. These steps must be completed BEFORE the first GSA Forum meeting (Wednesday of Week 3, Fall quarter) because Councils will not have seated Forum delegates with voting rights until Steps A & B are completed. Councils who do not maintain consistent attendance at GSA Forum may lose access to Council funds.
The Signatory Form must be filled out by Council Officers and turned into the GSA Central Office, which will in turn make a copy for Student Government Accounting. The Signatory Form must, at a minimum, have the president and treasurer. All officers on the Signatory Form have the authority to sign requisitions on behalf of the Council.
The Forum Delegate Authorization Form must be filled out by the Forum Delegates and signed by both the Forum Delegate and the Council President. The Forum Delegate Authorization Form cannot be verified until the Signatory Form is on file with GSA (Step A) to verify the Council President's signature.
The Council Registration Form (Word doc) provides GSA with the contact information for the all Council officers and departmental representatives (departmental representatives are also considered Assembly representatives in the GSA Constitution). The departmental structure does not apply to some professional school councils, so in their case we ask for just the roster of council officers and board members. If the Council is having trouble contacting departmental representatives, it should contact the Student Affairs Officer of the department or contact the GSA central office for help.
The Council Annual Budget Allocation is calculated based on enrollment data and total fees collected. The Total Allocation is the sum of the current year budget allocation and last year's carry-over. A Council cannot carry money over more than one year and will lose money if it does not use its carry-over in a given year (please ask Student Government Accounting for more details on this).
Academic Councils must meet at least twice a quarter to approve council and departmental expenditures. It is the responsibility of the Councils to implement the redistribution of funds to departments. The departmental budget apportionments are based on enrollments, but the Council has complete authority over the entire budget and may reapportion funding and eligibility as long as departments are informed and represented according to the GSA Codes. It is also the joint responsibility of departments to make sure that they send a representative to Council meetings. If departments do not participate in Council meetings at a level deemed appropriate by the Council, they forfeit their rights to some or all of their portion of Council funds.
Student Government Accounting provides an online financial report for the GSA. Council pages are usually pages 6-18. If you have questions about the Council budget or account activity, please contact Student Government Accounting (Kerckhoff room 332).
Council Budget with Enrollment figures (Excel spreadsheet)
Reimbursement for Council and Departmental expenditures must follow the Requisition process set up by Student Government Accounting and followed by both Graduate Student Association and the Undergraduate Student Association Council. Please consult the following handouts and information to help you fill out Requisitions. If you do not know your Council's 21-digit code, you should contact the Council President or Treasurer.
- Basic Requisition Checklist
- GSA Spending Guidelines and Requisition FAQs
- Requisition Form (partial diagram)
- Line-by-Line Requisition Instructions
- Flow Chart of Requisition Processing
- Honorarium Sample Agreement with Instructions
- GSA Student Government Accounting handbook
- Special cases: permanent equipment (such as computers), T-shirts, other printed media, honoraria, and reimbursing University departments.
(common problems that slow down processing)
EACH AND EVERY Requisition MUST:
- be filled out completely.
- contain a contact email or phone (preferrably both).
- have two Council signatures (Who are my Council Signatories? List of signatories).
- be accompanied by the Council minutes showing that the expenditure was approved - both the payee's name, item, and amount. If an item is approved in advance, the estimate must be equal to or greater than the actual expenditure. Please highlight the requisition item in the minutes.
- have original receipts or proof of payment (if the requisition is for reimbursement) (What is proof of payment?). Please staple receipts and the Council minutes to the back of the requisition form.
Some requisitions require extra procedures and documents. Special cases include requisitions for permanent equipment (such as computers), T-shirts, other printed media, honoraria, and reimbursing University departments. See the Line-by-Line Instructions and the Student Government Accounting handbook for more details.
The GSA Internal Vice President signs complete requisitions and submits them to Student Government Accounting. Student Government Accounting processes checks and other payments within 1-2 weeks of receiving the requisition. Stop by Student Government Accounting (Kerckhoff 332) if you need further help or have questions about checks or payments. You can also see the GSA Student Government Accounting handbook for more details.

(30 minutes or less)
If you start with one large piece of mirror, cut three 6 x 6 inch (15 x 15 cm) pieces from the plastic or glass. You can cut the plastic with a fine saw, such as a hacksaw, or score it with a utility knife and then snap it off. It is not hard to cut glass; get someone who knows how to do it to show you. (WARNING: For safety, after cutting a glass mirror, mount it on wood or cardboard and cover the edges with duct tape.)
Once you have the three mirrors you need, use the duct tape to tape two of the mirrors together along one edge. Put the tape on the back side of the mirror, making a hinge that opens and closes easily. Be sure the mirrors can move freely from 0 degrees to 180 degrees.
(15 minutes or more)
To make a kaleidoscope, set the hinged mirrors on the cardboard, and place an object such as a pencil or some coins between them. Open the mirrors to different angles. Notice that the smaller the angle, the greater the number of images you see. Remove the objects and see what happens when you draw different designs in the space between the two mirrors.
Close your right eye and look at a single mirror straight on. Notice that the left eye of the image is closed. Now close your right eye and look at two mirrors that form a 90-degree angle. Notice that the right eye of this image is closed.
Now make a corner reflector by opening the two taped mirrors to 90 degrees and resting them on the third mirror, so that the three mirrors form a half cube (see diagram). Close one eye and stare right at the corner where the three mirrors join. Move your head and notice that the pupil of your open eye always falls right at the corner. Open both eyes and look at the corner. One eye may appear to be closer to the corner than the other. This is your dominant eye.
When you put an object between the two hinged mirrors, light from the object bounces back and forth between the mirrors before it reaches your eyes. An image is formed each time the light bounces off a mirror. The number of images that you see in the mirrors depends on the angle that the mirrors form. As you make the angle between the mirrors smaller, the light bounces back and forth more times, and you see more images.
The illustration below shows how an image is formed in the corner of two mirrors at 90 degrees. Light rays bounce off each mirror at the same angle that they hit the mirror: Physicists say that the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. Mirrors at other angles behave similarly, but the ray diagrams may get more complex.
The inside corner of a corner reflector (where the three mirrors meet) sends light back parallel to its original path. If you pointed a thin beam of laser light right near the corner, the beam would bounce from mirror to mirror and then exit parallel to the entering beam. Light from the center of your eye bounces straight back to the center of your eye, so the image of your eye seems to be centered in the corner made by the mirrors.
In a corner reflector, multiple reflections reverse the image and invert it.
Corner reflectors are used to make safety reflectors for cars, bicycles, and signs. Corner reflectors have also been used to bounce laser beams back to the earth from the surface of the moon.
Throw a tennis ball into the corner of a room. It should return to you after bouncing off the three surfaces.
Tape five square mirrors together with the mirrored surfaces facing inward to form a box. Place a sixth mirror, turned at a 45-degree angle, over the open side so you can look into the box and also let some light in. This combines the Look into Infinity Snack with this Corner Reflector Snack. Try other configurations of mirrors in three dimensions and see what you can discover.
To do a quantitative experiment, mark the following angles on a piece of cardboard: 180 degrees, 90 degrees, 60 degrees, 45 degrees, 36 degrees, 30 degrees, and 20 degrees. These angles are chosen so that when they are divided into 360 degrees they produce an even integer. Mount the hinged mirrors at each of these angles and place an object betvveen them. Count the number of images you see. You should be able to verify the following rule: 360 divided by the angle between the mirrors gives the number of images, plus one. At 60 degrees, for example, 360/60 = 6, so you should see five images of the object.

The London-based International Cocoa Organisation (ICCO) organised the event to discuss a sustainable future for the industry in the face of growing demand. The conference is of particular interest to Ivory Coast, which is the world biggest producer of cocoa. ICCO said Africa in particular was a key area for the cocoa industry, with countries there expected to produce 70 percent of the world cocoa output for 2011-2012 that the ICCO estimates at nearly four million tonnes.
