A dynamic, excited collection of performers, TEMPO strives to promote and perform today's music - written by both emerging and established composers - and present it in a meaningful, engaging context. The ensemble is an organization that consists of instrumentalists, vocalists, and composers. The "organization" format allows us the ability to perform lager-scale chamber orchestra-type works as well as small ensembles, duos, or even solos, depending upon what a given program requires, and allows participants the flexibility to devote time to one or two pieces with the group per semester rather than grappling with an entire multi-program season. Members of TEMPO have performed internationally in a variety of contexts, and are dedicated to the task of making the music that they love inspiring to a diverse audience. TEMPO's primary tasks are to inspire, to teach, and to escort the next generation through music by living composers, and to work with these composers to sculpt the direction of music into the next century.

Water Quality
Beneficial Use Attainment
The Platte River, including all of its tributaries, is classified for aquatic use, livestock watering, and wildlife use. The Platte River, 102 River, and Little Platte River, including Smithville Lake are also classified for drinking water use and irrigation. Smithville Lake also has classifications for boating and whole body contact (MDNR 1986a). Minor elevations in fecal coliform bacteria levels in lake arms following runoff may occur in Smithville Lake (MDNR 1995). However, whole body contact recreation should remain unaffected.
Water quality that maintains diverse aquatic communities and acceptable fisheries uses throughout the basin should remain adequate, though biomass and biotic diversity may be limited in various streams within the basin due to high levels of non-point suspended solids, sedimentation, occasional low dissolved oxygen, increased nutrification, and in short reaches, by point source pollution. Water quality for livestock and wildlife watering should remain satisfactory within the basin. Water quality of drinking supply sources should also remain adequate. Manganese and iron may pose occasional taste, odor, and staining problems if not adequately removed by conventional water treatment or if water is drawn from deep strata of Smithville Lake. Taste and odor may also be a problem if algal growth is excessive (MDNR 1995).
Chemical Quality of Stream Flow
Suspended sediment, elevated water temperatures, and acidic inflows are water quality problems affecting streams within the Platte River basin, and all are negatively affected by weak base flows. High levels of suspended sediments in runoff are a significant contributor to the low aquatic diversity associated with basin streams. Basin streams often have manganese and fecal coliform levels that are commonly above Missouri water quality criteria (USDA-SCS 1982).Elevated water temperatures are harmful to fish survival and diversity. Water temperatures in excess of 90o F have been recorded in basin streams. These temperatures are found to be detrimental to the growth of largemouth bass, freshwater drum, bluegill, and crappie. Temperatures in excess of 80o F are found to be damaging to spawning and egg development of channel catfish, buffalo, and gizzard shad (USDA-SCS 1982). Due to the shallow nature and weak base flows in basin streams, water temperatures in excess of 80o F probably occur frequently during fish spawning and egg development (USDA-SCS 1982). Current trends show an increase in nitrate levels within basin streams, and this is thought to be associated with increased runoff of nitrogen-based fertilizers or increased runoff of animal waste (MDNR 1986b). Two years of water quality data from the gaging station at Sharps Station near Platte City are presented in Table Wq01.
Contaminants, Fish Kills, and Health Advisories
Since 1985, the Missouri Department of Health has issued a fish consumption advisory for Missouri, excluding the Ozarks (MDOH 1996). This advisory includes the Platte River basin. Consumption of fatty fishes such as catfish, common carp, suckers, freshwater drum, and paddlefish should be limited to no more than one pound per week (less than one pound per week for pregnant or nursing females and young children) due to higher levels of contaminants found in these types of fish. No consumption advisories apply for bass, sunfish, crappie or walleye (MDOH 1996). No fish consumption advisories are posted for the Iowa portion of the basin (R. Currier, Iowa Department of Health, personal communication).
Contaminant samples collected from Smithville Lake in 1994 showed that chlordane levels exceeded the National Academy of Science/National Academy of Engineering (NAS/NAE) 1973 chlordane guidelines for protection of wildlife (100 parts per billion, ppb), but fell below the Food and Drug Administration action level of 300 ppb. Only chlordane exceeded the NAS/NAE guidelines for protection of wildlife based on the 28 contaminants sampled (Buchanan 1994).
Numerous fish kills have occurred throughout the basin, and these have been attributed to naturally occurring conditions. Some of the larger fish kills have resulted from low dissolved oxygen levels associated with low flow conditions and increased water temperatures (Duchrow 1994). These conditions undoubtedly occur basin-wide. In addition, results may be magnified due to increased sedimentation and low base flows caused by channelization and detrimental agricultural practices (MDNR 1995).
Another threat to fish populations throughout the basin has been the improper management of municipal sewage and the subsequent runoff into receiving streams. Historically, this has been a chronic problem with the cities of Maryville and St. Joseph. Until 1971, the city of Maryville operated two primary sewage treatment plants, both located on tributaries to the 102 River. These facilities were responsible for several fish kills, the largest of which killed an estimated 250 fish and affected seven miles of the 102 River in 1971. In 1970, Maryville constructed five new sewage lagoons and shut down the existing plants. Pollution in the two tributaries and the 102 River ceased, and the present discharge has no apparent adverse effects on stream fauna. The eastern one-fourth of St. Joseph is drained by the Platte River basin, and at one time, 15 miles of small streams and 12 miles of the Platte and 102 rivers within this portion of the basin were considered to be grossly polluted from untreated municipal sewage runoff (MDC files). Although no documented fish kills were directly linked to sewage treatment plant (STP) discharges, the problems below the St. Joseph plants continued to be documented through 1981. Currently, the city of St. Joseph operates one STP within the Platte River basin, and no fish kills have been attributed to its effluent. A listing of municipal STP's and other permitted point pollution sources can be found in Tables Wq02 and Wq03.
Fish kills associated with runway de-icing using ethylene glycol and industrial effluent from Kansas City International Airport as well as municipal effluent from the Kansas City -Todd Creek STP have been a chronic problem in Todd Creek since 1976. This situation currently requires monitoring for metals and should be carefully reviewed for possible toxic effects (MDNR 1995). Enforcement actions may be forthcoming if violations continue (Duchrow 1994).
Another concern to fish populations within the Platte River basin is runoff of livestock manure, both from ranging animals and concentrated feedlot sources. Large documented fish kills have not been directly linked to livestock waste runoff in the basin. However, this is a concern due to recent fish kills in northwest Missouri caused by livestock manure spills from concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFO's) in other river basins.
Norris and Sons Trash Service and the city of St. Joseph operate landfills near Pigeon Hill Conservation Area in Buchanan County. Leachate from these landfills has been responsible for past fish kills, and has been a noted contributor of pollutants to Pigeon Creek. The original landfill was constructed directly over a tributary to Pigeon Creek, and was responsible for most of the problems. Today both landfills are under state regulations, and safe operating guidelines have been put into place that should alleviate further problems. Four companies (Amoco, Mapco, Platte Crude, and Williams Brothers) maintain oil pipelines that underlie streams within the basin. These pipelines present a potential hazard for aquatic populations should a break occur.
Water Use
A. Municipal- Within the Missouri portion of the Platte River basin there are four surface water intakes designated for municipal use (Figure Wq01). Two surface water intakes are located on Smithville Lake and serve the cities of Smithville and Plattsburg. One is located on Mozingo Lake and serves the city of Maryville. The other municipal surface water intake within the Missouri portion of the basin draws directly from the 102 River and serves the city of Maryville (MDNR 1996).
The Iowa portion of the Platte River basin contains three surface water intakes for municipal use (Figure Wq01). Two of the surface water intakes are located on reservoirs and serve the cities of Lennox and Bedford. The other surface water intake is located on the 102 River at Bedford and serves as a backup system. (J. Riessen, IADNR, personal communication).
B. Agricultural- Water use for irrigation purposes in the Missouri portion of the basin is minimal, although it varies annually depending upon rainfall. Only two of the nine Missouri counties within the basin (Andrew and Platte) reported any water use for irrigation (range 0.1 to 99 million gallons) during 1984 (MDNR 1986a).
Point-Source Pollution
Municipal sewage treatment plants are the major point-source pollution concern within the basin (Table Wq02; Figure Wq02). Surveys directly below basin STP's have noted changes in fish and invertebrate quantity and quality, increased turbidity, and lowered beneficial use potentials. Improperly treated waste water has the potential to add excessive nutrients, elevate ammonia levels, increase levels of fecal coliform bacteria, and cause low levels of dissolved oxygen in receiving streams. Approximately 10 miles of stream (near the metropolitan areas of St. Joseph and Maryville) in the basin are thought to be negatively impacted by sewage effluent. These discharges have been responsible for severe stream degradation in the past. Currently STP's are monitored regularly and come under the scrutiny of National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits. Non-municipal sewage effluent does not have large negative impacts on basin streams (MDNR 1995).
Unauthorized discharge from lagoons or pits serving CAFO's is another potential point-source pollutant within the basin. These discharges have been responsible for extensive fish kills in north Missouri, although no spills of this type have been documented as causing fish kills in the Platte River basin. Currently there are 75 CAFO's permitted within the basin, and it has been estimated that they generate 3,013,047 PE (human population equivalent) of waste annually (MDNR 1996 data). A listing of active and proposed CAFO's within the entire basin can be found in Table Wq04.
Non-Point Source Pollution
Non-point source pollution has the greatest negative influence upon water quality within the Platte River basin. The most common problems associated with non-point sources are low dissolved oxygen, high levels of turbidity, and organic nutrients, all of which are influenced by excessive runoff and extended low flows. The major factors contributing to non-point source pollution include channelization, intensive row cropping, and livestock (MDNR 1995). Urban construction and runoff may negatively affect basin streams in the Kansas City and St. Joseph areas (MDNR 1995).
Land use within the basin is dominated by row cropping and grazing of pasture land. One effect of intensive row cropping is increased runoff. This leads to increases in both upland and stream bank erosion and delivers high sediment loads and agricultural chemicals directly to basin streams. It is estimated that 23 tons of soil per acre are lost annually using straight row cropping with conventional tillage. Soil losses due to sheet and rill erosion on untilled uplands is 11 tons per acre annually. Gully erosion occurs at a rate of 1.2 tons per acre annually. This rapid erosion results in increased turbidity, degraded aquatic habitat, and increased nutrient and pesticide loads into streams (MDNR 1995). The Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) has removed some of the highly erodible land from production, but most of these CRP contracts will expire by 1998. Under the 1996 farm bill it has been estimated that erosion rates in northwest Missouri may rise from 10 to 40 percent as these highly erodible lands return to production (Otte 1996).
Livestock continues to be the main non-point source of organic nutrients to basin streams (MDNR 1995). The total number of livestock within the basin is estimated to equal 4,017,858 PE (T. Barney, USDA-NRCS, personal communication). The extent to which water quality, and subsequently aquatic life, is negatively affected by animal waste is difficult to estimate. The lack of adequate vegetation or buffer strips between feedlots or holding facilities and the stream allows runoff to carry waste and soil directly to streams. Direct access to streams by cattle is another major non-point pollution source within the basin. Excessive or untimely land application of animal waste can also add pollutants to basin streams. All of these situations can result in increases in sedimentation, fecal coliform bacteria, phosphorus, nitrates, ammonia nitrogen, and lowered dissolved oxygen (MDNR 1989).

- "And what in the name of Merlin's most baggy Y-Fronts was that about?"
- —Ronald Weasley to Hermione Granger in 1997.[src]
Underwear are clothes worn under other clothes, often next to the skin, in order to keep outer garments from being soiled by bodily secretions and discharges, shape the body, and provide support for parts of it. In cold weather, long underwear is sometimes worn to provide additional warmth.[1]
Types of underwear
Briefs, also known as Y-fronts, have an elasticised waistband at or near the wearer's waist, and leg sections that end at or near the groin. Briefs are tighter, and hold the wearer's genitals in a relatively fixed position. Mundungus Fletcher wore briefs in the 1990s.[2]
Boxers have an elasticised waistband that is at or near the wearer's waist, while the leg sections are fairly loose and extend to the mid-thigh. The waistbands of boxer shorts are usually wider than those of briefs. Ronald Weasley wore boxers in the late 1990s,[2] as did Reginald Cattermole.[3] Vincent Crabbe also used boxers, in 1993.[4]
Boxer briefs
These are similar in style to boxer shorts, but are generally shorter and form-fitting like briefs; a hybrid between the two main types of male underwear. Harry Potter wore black boxer briefs in the 1990s,[5] and George Weasley wore grey ones.[2]
Fireproof underwear
Fireproof underwear are undergarments worn under other pieces of clothing, that offer additional protection from fire. These undergarments are normally used by Dragonologists.[6]
In the 1970s, Severus Snape wore an unspecified kind of "grey underpants".[7]
Brassiere A brassiere, commonly referred to as a bra, is a woman's undergarment. Bras are typically form-fitting and the primary purpose of a bra is to enhance the wearer's comfort by supporting her breasts. Fleur Delacour wore a white lace bra in the 1990s.[2]
Behind the scenes
- In the PS1 version of the video game adaptation of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter is attacked by washing machines which spits out underwear and other clothes.

text: The Wildhearts are a British rock group originally formed in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. The band''s sound is a mixture of hard rock and melodic pop music, often described in the music press as combining influences as diverse as The Beatles and 1980s-era Metallica[citation needed]. However, this characterization is denied by the band, who see their influences as being far broader, as shown in the song "29 X The Pain", which lists many of group leader Ginger''s influences. Despite several top 20 singles and one top 10 album in Britain, the Wildhearts have not achieved major commercial success, owing in part to difficulties with record companies and many internal problems often relating to recreational drugs and depression. Much of the band''s early career was affected by bitter feuds with their record company, East West. In the band''s turbulent and unpredictable history, band members have regularly been replaced, with the only constant member being the band''s founder Ginger (real name David Walls), the singer, guitarist and predominant songwriter. Several band members have appeared in the line-up more than once. The band has also been split up or placed on hiatus by Ginger multiple times. The most recent line-up convened in 2006 but went on hiatus in late 2010.

there are unavoidable circumstances in which there is an adverse
impact to a wetland, such as filling or draining in order to further
development. Due to the valuable functions of wetlands in sediment
and nutrient filtering, flood water storage, and habitat for endangered
and threatened species it is important to replace these wetlands
to ensure there is no loss of the benefits they provide. With passage
of the Interagency Wetlands Policy Act in 1989,
Illinois became only the second state in the nation to consider
the functions and values of wetlands to be important enough to adopt
a state goal of no net loss of wetlands or their functional values.
In 1991,
Federal Executive Order 11990 adopted this same standard as
a national goal.
Wetland mitigation
banking is one tool that can be used to help reach the goal of no
net loss. Mitigation banks provide for the compensation of unavoidable
adverse wetland losses, by restoring chemical, physical, and biological
functions of wetlands and/or other aquatic resources prior to an adverse
impact. Wetland mitigation banks are typically large blocks of wetlands
whose values and functions are summed and assigned a value that is
translated into "credits". These credits are deposited, just as a
deposit is made into a regular checking account. As approved wetland
losses occur, these credits are withdrawn to compensate for the losses.
Mitigation banks can be developed by private individuals, public agencies,
or a combination of these entities and the credits sold in order to
compensate for adverse wetland impacts.
Mitigation banking
credits can be achieved through creation, restoration, enhancement,
or in some rare circumstances preservation of wetland areas of high
value. As with on-site mitigation, a bank site is to be managed and
preserved in perpetuity.

A member of a polygamist cult is pleading guilty to her role in the North Carolina shooting deaths of a 4-year-old boy who offended the group's leader and a woman who sought to leave.
LaRhonda Renee Smith pleaded guilty Monday to second-degree murder, kidnapping, and conspiracy to commit murder in the slayings of 28-year-old Antoinetta McKoy and 4-year-old Jadon Higganbothan. Smith was sentenced to between 23 and 30 years in prison.
Prosecutors said Smith and two other women were followers of Pete Moses, who lead a group called the Black Hebrews. The adults and their children lived together in Durham and later in Teller County, Colorado.
Moses shot Jadon in the head after the boy made a gesture toward another child that Moses thought indicated Jadon was gay.

South Carolina Travel Guide
Charleston © South Carolina Tourism
The small state of South Carolina is dominated by agriculture, with rolling hills and fertile farmland making up the interior and attractive plantations along the coast. The flat plains and the undulating pastoral landscapes of the interior are charming but hold little of interest for most visitors; the South Carolina coast is the true jewel of the state and boasts most of the attractions.
Miles of white sandy seashore stretch from the Grand Strand in the north to the mouth of the Savannah River in the south. The glitzy heart of the coast is the popular tourist resort of Myrtle Beach, which is famous for its family entertainment, amusement park attractions and recreational activities, especially golf. A string of resorts are dotted along the coast to historic Georgetown, sitting between the carnival atmosphere of Myrtle Beach and the old port grandeur of Charleston, one of the most elegant cities in the country. South of Charleston the coastline breaks up into small marshy islands that preserve traces of the Gullah culture. These Sea Islands are home to descendants of the West African slaves brought to the plantations who were given land when they were freed in 1865, and who speak a dialect known as Gullah that is unique to the African-Americans of the Sea Islands of South Carolina and Georgia.
South Carolina, nicknamed the 'palmetto state', has a rich history that is documented in the beautiful historic district of Charleston, Civil War sites, including Fort Sumter in Charleston harbour, and the restored plantation estates. In the 1800s the state depended heavily on slave labour to work the plantations, and as a result was the first state to secede from the Union and was a leader in the dispute over slavery.

Eagle Roof Mat Pad for Non-Penetrating NPR5 Mounts 38x36 Inch for NPR5 Units Pro Grade NPRMAT8 Non-Penetrating Satellite Dish Antenna Mount Skid Slip Pad, Part # NPR-MAT8
Non-Penetrating Mount Roof Pad!!!
These pads are designed to be used under non-penetrating roof (NPR) mounts. No holes need to be drilled in the roof surface with those mount designs but a pad should be used under the frame to provide a small buffer between the metal angle and the roof coating.
Use of a pad can avoid reluctance by building owners and reduce the possibly of roof leaks.
Of course, this and ALL flat-roof NPR antenna assemblies should be tethered to the building with a flexible steel cable for maximum security. We highly suggest that you install our PVTK1 tether kit for maximum retention of the dish and mount in high wind conditions.
Be safe and show consideration, its much more professional to use both a roof pad and a tether kit!

Quitting Smoking: Helping Someone Quit
Your partner or friend has decided it's time to quit smoking.
This is great news. You're excited, and you want to help. But you don't want your partner or friend to feel that you're coming on too strong or that you're "checking up" on him or her.
This Actionset will give you tips on helping someone who is trying to quit smoking. The information also applies to other tobacco products, such as chew or snuff.
- You can help someone quit smoking by offering support and practical tips. Ask the person how you can help. Suggest getting support and using medicine, and find out if it's okay to ask how he or she is doing.
- Only the smoker can follow through with the decision to quit. It's his or her choice and challenge. You can help by giving the person support.
- Most smokers don't succeed the first time they try to quit. If the person begins smoking again, don't be disappointed or make the person feel guilty. Instead, help him or her think about trying to quit again.
- You can help yourself understand what the person is going through by learning about how nicotine affects smokers, how hard it is to stop smoking, what medicines are helpful, and what support is available in your area.
Understanding some basic facts about smoking can make it easier for you to understand what quitting is like. This may make it easier to help the person.
The smoker is in charge. Only the smoker can make the decision to quit and to follow through and quit successfully. It's this person's choice and challenge, not yours. You are not responsible if the person doesn't succeed.
Most smokers have to try many times before they quit for good. If the person starts to smoke again, accept it. Don't show disappointment or make the person feel guilty. Tell the person that when he or she is ready to try again, you'll be willing to help again.
Knowing why smokers relapse may help you help the person avoid a relapse. People often start to smoke again when they:
- Have symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.
- Feel stressed or depressed because of problems in their lives.
- Miss the pleasure of smoking during good times in their lives, such as smoking at parties.
- Have easy access to cigarettes.
- Drink alcohol.
Test Your Knowledge
Most smokers don't succeed the first time they try to quit.
This answer is correct.
Most smokers need several tries before they quit for good. If your friend relapses, don't show disappointment or make him or her feel guilty.
This answer is incorrect.
Most smokers need several tries before they quit for good. If your friend relapses, don't show disappointment or make him or her feel guilty.
If you have ever been a smoker, you know how hard quitting can be. If you never smoked, it can be hard to understand why people smoke and how tough it is to quit.
So why do people have such a hard time quitting?
Cigarettes contain nicotine, which is addictive. Nicotine changes the brain so you want more of it. If you stop smoking and stop getting nicotine, your body fights back by making you feel bad. This is known as nicotine withdrawal. For some people, nicotine is as hard to quit as heroin or cocaine.
But there's more to smoking than nicotine. People smoke for many reasons, and these reasons also make it hard for them to quit. Smoking may:
- Relieve stress and bad moods.
- Improve concentration.
- Control hunger and weight.
- Be an activity of a social group.
- Be part of a daily ritual.
These reasons seem very good to smokers. Without cigarettes, they may feel that something is missing in their lives. They may feel that they can't cope without smoking.
Imagine how hard it would be for you to give up a habit that you enjoy or that you think helps you in some way when you have done it 10 to 20 times a day for months or years. What would you use as your replacement? How would you cope?
The combination of nicotine addiction and reasons to smoke make it very hard to quit.
Test Your Knowledge
It's hard to stop smoking because:
Nicotine is addictive.
Both answers are correct.
Nicotine is addictive, and the withdrawal symptoms make it hard to stop using nicotine. Both answers are correct.
The reasons that people smoke are important to
Both answers are correct.
The reasons that people have for smoking are important to them. Without cigarettes, people may feel that something is missing from their lives or that they may not be able to cope. Both answers are correct.
Family and friends are an important source of support and motivation for a person who is trying to quit smoking.
Before offering help, ask if it's okay to help, and then ask what you can do. Don't assume that the person wants your help or that you know the best way to help.
If a person asks for your support, there are many things you may be able to do.
Share your smoking history
It is important to the person trying to quit to know whether you smoke, are an ex-smoker, or have never smoked.
- If you have never smoked: Tell the person that you have heard that it can be very tough to quit. If you know people who have quit, tell their quit stories. Don't make the person feel guilty.
- If you are an ex-smoker: Tell the person, but don't brag about it. Say that you know it's tough. And if you had to try many times before you quit, say so. Talk to the person about how quitting changed your health and sense of well-being. Talk about how you got through times when you wanted to smoke again.
- If you are a current smoker: Say so. Let the person know if you have tried to quit and failed. Tell the person that you believe he or she can quit. And pledge not to smoke around him or her or leave cigarettes or smoking supplies around. If you live with the person who is trying to quit, agree to smoke outside the house or apartment, or limit your smoking to one room. Better yet, agree to quit with the person.
Give support
- Give the person support. Let the person know that you're willing to talk or visit anytime he or she wants you to. When the person meets a quit-smoking goal, congratulate him or her. Treat him or her to a movie, give a small gift, or simply send an email or note to acknowledge his or her hard work and efforts.
- Ask the person if you can check to see how he or she is doing.
- Many smokers like to have something in their mouths. Keep a supply of hard candy, cut-up vegetables, or toothpicks in your home to offer to the person.
- Ignore grouchy moods. No matter how grouchy a person gets, continue to support him or her.
- Tell the person about the good changes you see. For example, tell the person if you notice that he or she is not as short of breath.
- Don't check up on the smoker, such as looking for ashtrays or sniffing for smoke.
Help with avoiding triggers
Smokers usually have triggers, which are things that make them want to smoke. You can help a smoker avoid these.
- Ask about the person's triggers, and see if you can help him or her avoid them. For example, if the person always smoked during a coffee break, see if you can call him or her to talk at this time.
- Do things together, such as going to movies or on walks. Activity may help the person think less about smoking and decrease nicotine cravings.
- Alcohol is often a trigger. If possible, keep the person away from places where alcohol is used.
- Help out with daily tasks, such as shopping or cooking. This could help relieve stress, which is a major trigger for smoking.
Help someone who relapses
Most people need more than one try to stop smoking. If the person slips up, let him or her know that it's okay and that you still care.
- Give the person credit for whatever length of time (days, weeks, or months) that he or she didn't smoke.
- See what you both learned from the attempt. Are there any triggers to look out for? Should the person try phone counseling, medicine, or nicotine replacement therapy?
- When the person smokes again, it may be a one-time slip. Remind your friend about how long he or she had gone without smoking and why he or she wanted to quit in the first place.
- Tell the person that it was right to try to quit, and urge him or her to try to quit again. Use positive language, such as "when you try again," not "if you try again."
Suggest resources
There are many resources available to help someone quit smoking, and they make quitting more likely. Here are some ideas you can suggest:
- Join a support group for people who are quitting. People who have quit or are quitting know what quitters go through and can help you.
- Join a quit-smoking program. The person's doctor may be able to suggest one. You can also find them on the Internet.
- Use the Internet. The Internet gives you 24-hour access to information about quitting smoking and to chat rooms that can provide support.
- Try a free stop-smoking app if the person has a smartphone or a tablet device. The National Cancer Institute's QuitPal allows the user to track his or her progress and share successes on social networking sites. It also allows friends and family to record inspiring videos that the person can play when he or she is having a hard time with cravings or stress.
- Get counseling (by telephone, one-on-one, on the Internet, or in a group). The more counseling a person gets, the better his or her chances of quitting. Counseling sessions can also help if the person starts smoking again.
Test Your Knowledge
As soon as you know that your friend has quit smoking, it's a good idea to jump in to help.
This answer is incorrect.
Before you give someone support, ask to make sure that the person wants help, and ask what type of help he or she would like.

Geoff Ketchum
Q: (TYR0NEBIGGUMS) - With all the changes atop the polls this year, do you see Texas coming out flat against Missouri at home? You hear the players and coaches talking about how they won't let their ranking get to their heads and how they have to take games one at a time, but do you think the Texas players will be affected? Will the coaching rumors surrounding Muschamp have any impact on this team come Saturday night? A: After talking with numerous sources close to the team this week, I can confirm that this team had perhaps its best week of practice this week and there's a feeling that this team is not only ready for this weekend, but those close to the program feel like the team will play at a very high level if this week is any indication of how they'll play. I think this team is focused and the lack of star power among this group has convinced these guys that they have to remain 100% committed to the team and total preparation in order to win every week. Bill Parcells would love this team because these guys walk around talking about not wanting to eat the cheese. This team might drop a game in the next month or so, but it won't be because they aren't ready to play. Q: (JKates) - Did Colt McCoy ever verbal to LSU? Or was he always committed to Texas?A: McCoy committed to Texas early in the recruiting process, but he did take a very quiet look at the Tigers and a couple of other schools in the final months of the recruiting process. You'd have to remember that the Longhorns were in serious pursuit of Ryan Perrilloux at the same time and there were a lot of schools, including LSU that used his recruitment and five-star status as leverage against the Longhorns. Although there might have been an in-home visit or two, nothing serious ever materialized out of any of it and McCoy remained firm in his commitment to the Longhorns. Q: (bchorn) - How would NFL scouts rate Colt McCoy's pro prospects right now? He's having a Heisman-type season but having this kind of success doesn't necessarily guarantee NFL success.Also it seems Colt, Quan Cosby and Jordan Shipley are playing really well because each of their strengths complement each other. Colt excels in the short and intermediate passing game. Quan and Jordan excel at short and intermediate pass routes. Colt's extremely accurate with his passes and Quan and Jordan can catch pretty much anything thrown their way. If this Quan and Jordan can help Colt maintain his 80% completion rate throughout the season, where will this trio rank in CFB history?Finally, is there anyway an opposing offense can be successful even if their offensive line can't stop a defensive line like Texas from rushing just four? To me it seems like if your offensive line gets whipped by just four guys, it's a guaranteed recipe for disaster.A: Since I didn't have the answer to your question when I first read it, I called a scouting buddy of mine that works for an NFC West squad and asked him for his thoughts on a few of the Longhorns."We're really just starting to tale a look at Colt, so I really can't give you an accurate grade on where we think he'd fall because we haven't spent a lot of time looking at him, although he's on our radar now," the scout said. "It's safe to say that he would be drafted and would have probably have a chance to be drafted in a good slot, but there's a feeling that he needs to go back for his senior season and the word is that that's exactly what's going to happen. He's obviously a good athlete and he's playing really well this season. He's the Heisman favorite right now, right? I know what you're asking me, but I don't have a full answer for you at this point. I would imagine most teams are in the infancy stage when it comes to taking a hard look at him."Second, if McCoy can maintain his current pace, he will smash the NCAA single-season passing according to an article I read earlier in the week, but I'll be honest when I tell you that I've spent all week trying to find documentation of that record and I haven't been able to confirm what the record actually is and who holds it. For some reason I keep thinking that former Hawaii quarterback Colt Brennan holds the record with a 72.2% completion percentage in 2006. Regardless, McCoy's efficiency is silly good right now.Finally, any team that has a hot quarterback can overcome just about anything, but I think you're pressing your luck if the front lines on both sides of the ball are getting pushed around.Q: (tabascotexanþ) - Ketch, I'm freaking out. What will all the talk of Will Muschamp possibly leaving for a head coaching job do to our recruiting this year? All the best uncommitted recruits are on the defensive side of the ball. My take.........no Muschamp, not top D recruits. I hope I'm wrongA: I wouldn't worry about recruiting as it relates to this year's recruiting class and any possible Muschamp departure. They had their recruiting wrapped up so early that Muschamp never even had a chance to totally assert himself. His first big impact in my mind would come in the 2010 recruiting class, although that statement will prove to be false if he can get some of these out of state prospects like Dre Kirkpatrick or Jarvis Jones to start leaning towards the Longhorns. You can come off the ledge. Q: (ut_alh) - It appears that Brandon Collins got a lot of work against OU. Where do the young receivers stand as we move into the second half of the season?A: Collins and fellow sophomore James Kirkendoll are taking turns each week in seemingly taking steps forward as a potential true No.3 receiver for this team. At this point the team is still waiting for one of these guys to step up in a game, much like Chris Ogbonnaya has in recent weeks at running back. Redshirt freshman Malcolm Williams is also still on the radar, but it's pretty obvious that he still likely a year away.Q: (DimiHorn) - Good to be out of Orangebloods purgatory. No more political posts.... Here are my questions - all surrounding the draft. 1. Quan Cosby - No doubt he has what it takes to play on Sundays. Reminds me a lot of Brandon Stokley as they have similar builds, speed and skill set. Quan is the ideal slot / possession target. My question is how will his age affect his draft position and where in the draft do you see him going?2. What under classmen, if any, are possible candidates to leave early? What are you hearing?3. Brian Orakpo - Is he the best DE we have had since Brackens? Do you see him being a top 10 type pick in the draft?4. What is your favorite fried goodie at The Texas State Fair? I have to go with Twinkies....fried Twinkies are wonderfulA: I don't know that Cosby's age is going to be a huge factor because I think he'll likely be a late-round draft pick.As far as underclassmen are concerned, Sergio Kindle's name is certainly on the NFL's radar, but he is not a first round pick at this stage and he'll need another year of development before he's regarded in that capacity. Outside of Kindle, there are really not any draft-eligible underclassmen on the team right now that would factor into this discussion.Yes, Orakpo is the best defensive end the Longhorns have had since Brackens and I also believe he has a chance to be a top ten pick in the next spring's NFL Draft.Finally, fried Twinkies are the bomb, but they must come with ice cream or you're compromising the integrity of the friend desert.Q: (Austin Dave) - When Shipley lines up as a TE, did he have to learn a new set of routes?A: Nah, they really didn't have to re-invent the wheel when they rolled out the new four-wide offensive set last week. Shipley is masterful route runner and he understands how to find the open spots in the zone across the middle of the field. Frankly, the match-up of Shipley against the OU linebackers was like taking candy from a baby. Expect to see them to try to exploit Missouri with the same set this weekend.Q: (Sweet Al) - How are the young guys on the D-Line looking? We are loosing two huge players in Roy Miller and Brian Orakpo next season and we all know what Lamarr Houston can do as well as Eddie Jones and Sam Acho, but what about guys like Kheeston Randall, Russell Carter, Jarvis Humphrey and Michael Wilcoxon. At least two of them are going to need to step up next season and fill some big shoes. Who do you see grabbing the bull by the horns and locking up one of those starting spots.A: Of the four you mentioned, the two that jump out at me are Randall and Carter. The staff thinks they really have something in Randall and if he makes the commitment that is expected of him, he has a chance to be an impact player next year. In fact, I think the team would have zero reservations about turning to Randall for snaps this season if they needed him. As for Carter, his only problem is that the defensive end position is loaded right now, but he's been a very good player on the scout team and when he's been given opportunities in scrimmage settings, he's made the most of them. Both players have a chance to be excellent players. I think we'll likely have a better understanding of what Humphrey and Wilcoxon can bring to the table after the bowl workouts in December.Q: (Stampedingsteer) - The Big 12 has several top qb's this year - project their NFL draft stock and ability to make it on a pro roster. Which ones are just "system" qb's that have been great in college and will flop in the pros? How is Blaine Irby progressing? Any chance for a medical redshirt or do you believe he will leave after 4 years anyway? Do you think Will Muschamp is one and done at the 40 acres, and if so how good is our next defensive coordinator that auburn is training?A: Missouri's Chase Daniel, Kansas' Todd Reesing and Texas Tech's Graham Harrell are players that I think are going to have very difficult transitions from the college game to the pro game. Daniel has been discussed as a possible third or fourth round pick, but I'm just not sure that the pro scouts are going to love him when they get a chance to pick him apart in the off-season. As for the other two, I just don't see it at all, even though I'm a charter member of the Reesing Fan Club. The three guys that I think have an excellent shot at being high-level NFL prospects are McCoy, Oklahoma's Sam Bradford and Kansas State's Josh Freeman. The jury is probably still out on Oklahoma State's Zac Robinson.Irby is doing as well as could be expected, but it's too early to talk about any progress he might be making because he has a long road to travel.No, I think Muschamp comes back for another season. Because I just can't imagine the Longhorns letting him get away from them unless a job opens up that is too good to be true and it's actually offered to him. Q: (cdunagan05) - Hey Ketch, My question is two fold. 1. When is Fozzy Whittaker going to be able to play? Has Mack or anyone inside the program given a time-table? I still think he would be such a help in our not-as-much-lacking-run-game-as-we-thought. 2. If Fozzy is OK and Mack didn't play him during the OU game, then what makes us think that he will be played in the Mizzou, OSU, or Tech games? And if he isn't going to be played shouldn't we get a Medical Red-shirt?A: Whittaker is ready to rock and roll right now, but he's missed so much time that it's tough to say how many carries he's going to get in the coming weeks. Mack Brown is not going to want to break him during games of real consequence when he hasn't had a chance to see what kind of engine the kid has under the hood. He's going to play a little, but perhaps not a lot for the rest of the month. Also, nobody is thinking redshirt right now.Q: (CBHookem) - With the recent Darrell Scott quotes coming out, I wanted to get your take on the so called "Mack Brown Curse." Do you think that some of the big time recruits that we missed out on would have turned out differently had they come here (i.e. Scott, Ryan Perrilloux, Rhett Bomar, Fred Rouse, etc.)? The coaching staff wanted all these guys pretty bad but didn't get them and have had controversial careers (I know Scott's career is only 6 games long, but still). Does Mack Brown just do an exceptional job of changing kids and making them more team players or are we just lucky that we "dodged some bullets?" Personally, I think the answer lies somewhere in the middle. Also, I've always wanted to know this, but how can you like the Phillies and Sixers so much yet be a huge Cowboys fan and hate the Eagles? Where's the disconnect for football? A: That's such a hard question to answer. If Mack and Co. couldn't get Robert Timmons to stay on the right path, it's hard to think that some of the guys that you mentioned would have been any different, but I think we know they probably would have had a better chance to survive in a fish bowl if they been in Austin because of the school's amazing support system. I can still remember when Rouse told me that Bobby Kennedy told him that if he came to Texas, he'd be taken care of whether he made the NFL or not. He then told him if he went to Florida State he might also have a chance to play in the NFL, but there would also be a chance he was going to end up in the state penitentiary in five years because of the lack of discipline in his life and the fact that he probably wouldn't be able to free himself from the clutches of the neighborhood back home. I think Rouse knew Kennedy was right, but he couldn't stay away from trouble in San Antonio and the Longhorns couldn't take him in the end because of his background.Sometimes these kids really aren't good apples no matter how much we desire them to be because of their talent.Finally, I became a Dallas Cowboys fan at the age of three when Dallas played the Steelers in Super Bowl XIII. That's the first game I remember watching with my family. At the age of seven I started to get into the NBA and MLB when I visited some family in Philadelphia in 1983. It was during that summer that the Sixers won the NBA title and I went to my first Phillies game (Steve Carlton was dominant that night) as they made a trip to the World Series.I've been hooked on all three teams ever since and I should note that I was also a huge Philadelphia/Baltimore Stars fan of the USFL.I loved me some Kelvin Bryant, until he landed with the Washington Redskins in the NFL. ...More...

Helpful Definition for: Cable Television Companies
Cable television signals use only a part of the available bandwidth over coaxial connections. Cable television companies started in the late 19th century in Australia. Several cable television companies appeared offering services to homes in different countries across the globe. However once their customer base started expanding, other companies also showed their interest in this business and they entered the market.
Cable television companies in La Puente offer a limited number of free channels and some charged channels. The free of cost programming comprises mainly of locally produced entertainment shows, news, and comedy shows. However the charged channels throughout California include the foreign sit-coms, soap operas, movies, cartoons, global news and sports programs around the world.

Biofuel: Food In, Fuel Out, But Is It The Answer We're looking For?
(Long Island, NY) In today's environmentally-conscious worldview that is being shared by more and more people, alternative fuel sources are the Holy Grail of the "green" movement. There are many new ways to eschew hydrocarbon-laden gasoline when it comes to filling up your vehicle's tank at the pump, and one of the most oft-talked about are biofuels- mainly ethanol and..

The Central Committee of the ruling Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) held its emergency meeting on Friday in Dar es Salaam to receive a report of the party's parliamentary caucus as well as an official briefing on what transpired in the just-ended parliamentary meeting in Dodoma.
An official statement released by CCM Secretary for Ideology and Publicity Nape Nnauye after the meeting, among other things, stated that the CC meeting had endorsed President Jakaya Kikwete's intent to reshuffle the cabinet.
But only two days after the meeting, the statement has caused confusion among the public, with a section of Tanzanians thinking that the president would be dissolving the entire cabinet and coming up with a new one.
However, others think the president is planning to make a reshuffle of the existing cabinet. To reshuffle simply means to arrange or organize anew. Another contention that has now emerged revolves around the president's decision to consult the Central Committee, a very important organ in the party's structure.
Though everything is possible in politics, the dissolution of an entire cabinet is hard to implement at this juncture, as it would compel the president to call an emergency parliamentary meeting to endorse the name of a new prime minister before collaborating with the appointee in forming a new cabinet.
Given the current political environment and the economic situation of the country, convening an emergency parliamentary meeting may worsen the financial position of the country considering that a single Member of Parliament fetches a total of Sh 150,000 day in per diem and sitting allowances. The country's Parliament has a total of 350 members.
An independent observer also warns that given the nature of the political undercurrents in the National Assembly, a reappointed Mizengo Pinda might face outright rejection in the House should the president decide to come up with a brand new cabinet.
It should be remembered that Kigoma North MP Kabwe Zuberi Zitto has already set the pace for moving a vote of no confidence in Premier Pinda. Therefore, renominating him for endorsement in case the cabinet is dissolved would create a lot of political uncertainties and possible embarrassment for the president himself.
Prof Chris Peter Maina, a constitutional lawyer, giving his personal views, says he is made to believe that the president would most probably just make a reshuffle of the existing cabinet and not to dissolve it.
He says though the wording of the statement released on Friday evening might be confusing to a section of the public, what the president was likely to do was to re-organize the current cabinet by dropping some ministers and appointing a few new ones.
"I think the president will just improve on the existing cabinet. I don't see the possibility for him dissolving the whole cabinet, though anything is possible in politics," the professor says.
Reacting to the contentious argument currently circulating in the public domain that by consulting the party's Central Committee the president violated the constitution, Prof Maina says the president's decision was entirely constitutional.
He says under the current country's system whereby the winning political party after a general election forms the government, consulting the respective party's internal organs before making any decision is not a crime.
"People should not forget that this is the government formed by a particular political party. Therefore, by consulting the party that nominated him to the post and eventually voted in by wananchi during the general election, the president did not violate the constitution," Prof Main explains.
The constitutional expert explains that under the country's political system it was indeed politically healthy for the president to seek the blessing of his party (political mandate) before making any political decision since that was within the constitution.
Harold Sungusia, a legal officer with the Legal and Human Rights Centre (LHRC), for his part said the statement issued on Friday was too political, saying its validity would be rightly judged after the implementation of the resolution it contains.
Speaking about the president's decision to consult the ruling party's Central Committee, Sungusia said that was a political strategy that aimed at showing the public that the decision to reshuffle the cabinet was not a result of any external pressure.
"The president held the CC meeting to convince the public that it is CCM that has advised him to reshuffle the cabinet and not any external pressure, especially from members of Parliament," he said.
He said since the president is allowed to receive advice from any person provided he upholds the national interest, receiving such help from within the party may also be allowed.
However, Sungusia observed that what the president did was just a political game that aimed at showing the public that his announced decision to reshuffle the cabinet was in response to demands from within his political party, not from outsiders.
There is a contention currently circulating in the public domain that President Kikwete should not have consulted the Central Committee to carry out his intention to re-organise his cabinet. Instead, they say he should have gone ahead with his plan by involving state apparatus such as the intelligence department.
Nnauye, after the CC meeting, told reporters that opposition parties should not think that they were the force behind the move to reshuffle the cabinet.
The announced decision to reshuffle the cabinet has come less than five days since the National Assembly concluded its business in Dodoma at which MPs called for the resignation of some ministers after CAG reports implicated them in the embezzlement and outright theft of public funds.

Underscoring the importance of discouraging the use of charcoal and firewood in preference for environment-friendly and therefore healthier options can be enjoyable talk able to make working towards that goal sound very simple.
Yet, it is always much easier said than done, particularly in circumstances where families or communities are too poor to afford even basic necessities of life.
The result, as noted across the globe over the decades, is even worse poverty compounded by the impact of climate change in the form of unpredictable changes in weather patterns and having a terrible time dealing with drought-induced deforestation, floods, etc.
Still, the search for renewable and other alternative sources of energy is both unavoidable for humankind to make genuinely meaningful social and economic development making it possible for even the world's poorest people to add value to their lives.
The UN Environment Programme (UNEP) has worked hard spreading word on the need to preach the gospel of alternative sources of energy, but without ever forgetting to send out reminders – that sermons will be of little use unless the people they target have access to options that are friendlier to the environment and to public health.
For instance, the UNEP Governing Council/Global Ministerial Environment Forum held in the United Arab Emirates in February 2006 was introduced to a range of environment-friendly technologies, among them renewable energies and waste-reduction systems to solar-powered fridges for storing vaccines.
Also unveiled were roads made out of sugar, ships powered and propelled by the sun and grease-consuming bacteria.
The UN agency used the occasion to explain that local and international companies ought to feel compelled to come up with imaginative, creative and practical ideas leading to technology able to play the "vital role" of delivering a cleaner, healthier and more stable world.
Delegates then deliberated at great length on the submissions made at the conference, many expressing hope that the technologies recommended would help in solving the energy crisis by reducing water, soil and air pollution, and that governments, civil society and industry leaders would find that inspiring.
Just recently, a forestry expert with Tanzania's Natural resources and Tourism ministry underlined the need for the government and the country's development partners to invest more funds in projects engaged in the war in deforestation.
The expert readily admitted, though, that recourse to alternative sources of energy was seriously inhibited by poverty – that many people cling to charcoal or firewood simply because better options such as solar power and natural gas are either inaccessible or unaffordable.
Thus, while it is impossible to defend the continued use of traditional sources of energy such as firewood, charcoal and cow-dung, urging people to go for the likes of kerosene, natural gas and electricity will only make sense if conditions support such a switch.
Of course, we all need to embrace the change if we are to realize the set of time-bound antipoverty targets popularly known as MDGs particularly as relate to the war of malnutrition and disease.
