Tesoro refinery purchase is good for La Palma
LA PALMA – The city's financial outlook was a little brighter Friday afternoon after federal regulators cleared the way for an oil company to purchase a refinery in Carson.
The approval from the Federal Trade Commission for Tesoro Corp. to purchase the refinery means the company will move into offices in La Palma, and the city will earn much-needed sales-tax dollars.
"We weren't sure exactly when the FTC would take it up, and having it this early is really helpful for us," said City Manager Ellen Volmert.
La Palma has been in a financial jam since BP/ARCO announced last year it would close its La Palma offices. The closure would mean about a $2 million loss annually in sales tax to the city, or about 20 percent of its general fund revenues, Volmert said.
In August, Tesoro announced it was looking to buy BP's refinery in Carson. And in February, the city worked out a 20-year deal with Tesoro that will keep fuel-buying operations in the city. In turn, Tesoro will be rebated some of the sales tax.
Eventually, Volmert said, the city hopes sales tax revenue will be in line with the $2 million it was earning from BP.
"We don't really know exactly what sales numbers look will like in the future," she said.

Government: Ruling backs nonprofits' birth control plan
WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration said Wednesday that the Supreme Court's ruling in favor of the religious claims of Hobby Lobby and other for-profit businesses supports the government's position in separate, ongoing disputes with religious-oriented nonprofit organizations.
The administration urged the justices to deny a request from evangelical Wheaton College in Illinois that the government says would block its students and employees from free access to emergency contraceptives. The Justice Department said the Hobby Lobby decision essentially endorses the accommodation the administration already has made to faith-affiliated charities, hospitals and universities.
Wednesday's court filing was the administration's first legal response to the Supreme Court decision Monday that allowed Oklahoma-based Hobby Lobby Inc. and other businesses to assert religious claims to avoid covering some or all contraceptives in employee health plans.
Houses of worship and other religious institutions whose primary purpose is to spread the faith are exempt from the requirement to offer birth control.
The issue in the lawsuits filed by Wheaton and other nonprofit groups is that they must fill out Form 700 that enables their insurers or third-party administrators to take on the responsibility of paying for the birth control.
The justices pointed to the accommodation as an acceptable way to get contraception to women without stepping on the religious beliefs of the for-profit companies.

In Example 1, what is the period of states 1 and 3?
Solutions for Chapter 17.4
In Example 1, what is the period of states 1 and 3?
A state i is called periodic state with if k is the smallest number such that all paths leading from state i back to state i have a length that is multiple of k. That is wherever we are, we will return to same state, k periods later. The periodicity of state 1 and state 3 is 2. This is explained below.
Suppose we are in state 1, next we can go to state 2 or state 0, but we cannot be back to same state 1, in just 1 transition. Hence periodicity is not 1, which means that state 1 is periodic.
Now if we go from state 1 to state 2, then it will require one more transition to come back to state 1. Hence the minimum number of transitions required is 2. So except for 0 and 4, to return to any state the number of the player's wins and number of player's losses must be same.
There are other paths for which we can start from 1 and come back at 1. But all are with even number of transitions. Consider following paths:
For each of the paths followed, an even number of transitions is required. Wherever we are, we shall return to state 1, two periods later. Hence the periodicity of state 1 is 2.
Any state communicates with any other state that is for any two states i and j, there is a path from i to j and from j to i, then the two states i and j are said to communicate. As 1 and 3 belong to same communication class, so the periodicity of state 3 is also 2. Hence the gambler can return to the original state after an even number of plays.

In order to be effective in the use of fingerplays, the teacher must first select a fingerplay that relates to current learning and then practice, practice, and practice. The more familiar and skilled the teacher is in reciting and acting out the fingerplay, the more effective the teacher will be in using and/or presenting the fingerplay.
Use fingerplays effectively …
I once observed a teacher who effectively started a fingerplay and all the children joined in. At the end of the fingerplay, the child became very quiet. The teacher immediately responded with a loud "SEE HOW QUIET YOU ALL CAN BE!" Well they weren't quiet anymore.
Use fingerplays to quiet the children and capture their attention. When it is working, don't stop! Move right on into the next activity.
Why practice fingerplays?
- To be the most effective, fingerplays must be fun and engaging.
- To be fun and engaging, teachers must know the material well.
- Don't wait until you sit in front of the class to start learning a new fingerplay.
Practice in your car, practice at home, and repeat the fingerplay often with your students so they can get good at it too. The more students participate, the more they will begin to like it. Something new always takes a bit to catch on and become fun. Dedicate yourself to learning one or two new fingerplays a week and always use the one's you already know often.

For example: 1. add a policy file to the /usr/share/PolicyKit/policy directory containing <action id="org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.usb-jtag"> <description>Directly access to usb jtag devices</description> <message>System policy prevents access to usb jtag devices</message> <defaults> <allow_inactive>no</allow_inactive> <allow_active>yes</allow_active> </defaults> </action> This then shows up in the authorizations gui so that users can be added to the acl. 2. Hal requires some metadata about this device, so add a .fd file in the /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty directory containing <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <deviceinfo version="0.2"> <device> <match key="usb_device.vendor_id" int="0x15ba"> <append key="info.capabilities" type="strlist">olimex-device</append> <append key="info.capabilities" type="strlist">usb-jtag</append> <append key="info.capabilities" type="strlist">access_control</append> <merge key="access_control.file" type="copy_property">linux.device_file</merge> <merge key="access_control.type" type="string">usb-jtag</merge> </match> </device> </deviceinfo> 3. Add .fdi file for hal policy to the /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty directory containing <match key="info.capabilities" contains="usbraw"> <match key="info.capabilities" sibling_contains="usb-jtag"> <append key="info.capabilities" type="strlist">access_control</append> <merge key="access_control.file" type="copy_property">usbraw.device</merge> <merge key="access_control.type" type="string">usb-jtag</merge> </match> </match> <!-- support for Linux USB stack where linux.device_file is set (e.g. device node is on the main usb device) --> <match key="info.subsystem" string="usb"> <match key="@info.parent:linux.device_file" exists="true"> <match key="info.capabilities" contains="usb-jtag"> <append key="info.capabilities" type="strlist">access_control</append> <merge key="access_control.type" type="string">usb-jtag</merge> <merge key="access_control.file" type="copy_property">@info.parent:linux.device_file</merge> </match> </match> </match> 4 Run the authorizations gui and grant the user the right to access the device. Oh look I've done it now - its simple when you have done it once. Would you like me to write it up with more detail ? Someone will need to look over it because I am not sure that everything I have done is correct. Comments and suggestions welcome. Kevin

Last year, the Sacramento State Steel Bridge Team finished in 1st place at the 2015 ASCE Mid-Pacific Steel Bridge Competition for the first time in school history; beating some of the most distinguished schools in California and China, including the 2014 National Champions UC Davis.
The team has put in hundreds of hours to not only build and test the bridge for the competition, but also to see how quickly it could be assembled; a key part of the challenge. This weekend Sac State's Steel Bridge Team will be competing once again at the American Society of Civil Engineers Mid-Pacific Regional Competition.

A fact that may suprise readers is that none of the characters in the banner below made the list, no Mario or Zelda, and no Gordon Freeman. This is because the list is more of a personal favourites, than an all time greatest and it is reflected in the fact that certain series' or character designers are represented more that once.
So without further ado, here is the first five entries in 'The Greatest Video Game Character...'
As a taster for numbers 5-1, there will be another Yoji Shinkawa designed character, another Tetsuya Nomura designed character, and a certain British gaming icon... Part II, COMING SOON.

Hippocrates' Ancient Tree Genetically 'Fingerprinted'
By IANS - LONDON
Published: 30th April 2014 04:58 PM
Last Updated: 30th April 2014 04:58 PM
How would have Hippocrates reacted after seeing a DNA project that has identified the genetic fingerprint of the tree that served as one of medicine's earliest classrooms under his tutelage?
Researchers from Smithsonian's Laboratories of Analytical Biology have identified the 2,400-years-old tree's genetic fingerprint - or DNA barcode.
"I think Hippocrates would have been very excited about how DNA comparison and other modern methods are being used to better understand and ultimately treat human disease," D. David Lipman, director of the National Library of Medicine's national centre for biotechnology information, was quoted as saying in a BBC report.
An ancient Greek physician and is considered the father of western medicine, Hippocrates reportedly sat down with his pupils under the tree in Kos, Greece.
The original tree died hundreds of years ago, but in its place, a tree was planted in 1776 that is thought to be a descendant of the original tree.
Cuttings from this descendant have been presented as gifts to libraries, colleges and medical institutions around the world.
One of these cuttings was planted at the National Library of Medicine near Washington, DC that has been used by researchers, the report added.
The effort was part of the Barcode of Life Project, BBC reported.

If you don't know this already, I'll tell you now that most dog shelters are tragically understaffed and underfunded. There's always one more thing to be done, and not enough hands or time in the day to do it. As a result, dogs go unwalked, cages go uncleaned, blankets go unwashed, and dogs go unbathed. Volunteering at your local shelter gives you a quality somewhere between "angel" and "Buddha."
However, the reality is that most people can't volunteer at a shelter. People have busy lives. Other people can't stand the idea of being among animals that may be put to death – it's too sad for them. Understandable. But there are many ways to help shelter pets without spending hours at a shelter, or making yourself sad. I'd say to buck up and get over the "sad" part for the sake of the dogs – that's what I had to do – but some folks can't do it.
Here are 10 unusual ways to help shelter pets that you might not have thought of before:
Take Photos:Shutterbugs are in a position to help shelter dogs in a big way. Most shelter photos are abysmal. A shelter photo should be as good as an online dating profile photo. You wouldn't put your worst picture on a dating profile and expect anyone to respond, would you? The same goes for the dogs.
Shelters are often amenable to people who want to come in and take better photos of the adoptable dogs. This is a great place to practice your photo skills if you're a beginner. For those just starting out, the book "Dog Photography for Dummies" is a great guide not just to dog photos, but also to photographing dogs in shelters. If you're a seasoned photographer, think of the service you can provide for the dogs – one photo can save a life.
Create Videos: Creating a video for an adoptable dog goes a step beyond the photo. I've done this many times and have had great success with it. People like to see the dogs in action. A video gives a better impression of the dog's temperament. You don't have to get fancy – most people's phones have video capabilities these days, and many also have apps that let you edit the video and add music, etc. Then you can share these videos on your social media, or give them to the shelter to share.
Another thing I like to do is create general videos about adoption that may prompt people to rethink how they perceive shelter pets. My latest video is a parody of the popular song, "Somebody That I Used to Know" by Gotye; mine is called "Doggie That I Used to Know."
Click: One little click can feed shelter pets if you bookmark Freekibble, Click to Give and The Animal Rescue Site and click on them every day. Freekibble has a fun trivia question and whether you get it right or wrong, the shelter pets still get fed just by you playing. The Animal Rescue site also runs contests for shelters to win funds, and all you have to do is click for your fave shelter. Another way to "click to give" is to keep your eye out for contests on your social media pages – I see a lot of contests there run by various corporations that want to fund shelters.
Send a Postcard: Of course, I have to include my own charity site, The Pet Postcard Project. I started this project in 2007 with the idea that most people don't have a lot of money to give to shelters, but that they could use their creativity to help feed shelter pets by simply making and sending in postcards of their own pets. I find sponsors who donate a certain amount of pet food for each postcard that comes in. So far, the project has raised hundreds of thousands of pounds of food for shelter animals, as well as thousands of dollars of toys and cash.
Party Animals: If you like mingling and parties, as many of us dog people do, there are all sorts of "yappy hours" and "puptail parties" that serve as fundraisers for various rescues and shelters. Sign up for your local rescue's mailing list and eventually you'll be invited to an event. The money you spend going in raises funds for the homeless pets – and there's usually a goody bag at the end of the night too. No good events in your area? If you're a "party planner" type, offer your services to your local shelter and help them plan one.
(Not Your Typical) Fundraising: Fundraising is the key to keeping most shelters and rescues going. There's never enough funds and every bit helps. Work with your neighbors or other dog-loving friends to have a bake sale, or perhaps you and your friends are crafty and can make key chains or other items to sell on Ebay, giving all of the proceeds to your local rescue. How about scouring the thrift stores in your area for books and selling them online for a profit that you give to a rescue? How about having a garage sale? Get the whole block involved! People like to help – it makes us feel good. There are many ways to fundraise that take very little (or no) money out of your pocket – just very worthwhile time and effort.
Shop: Many rescues have signed on with affiliate programs that allow you to click through to your favorite online shops (Amazon, for example) and whatever you buy will earn a percentage of the sale for the rescue.
(Not Your Typical) Donation: Shelters always have a "wish list" of things that they need that might be sitting around your house, unused. Blankets, towels, and sheets, for example, are always a hot items in shelters, and always in short supply. Operation Blankets of Love collects these items (and others) to distribute to needy shelters. Or, you can collect all of your unused linens and drop them off at the local shelter yourself. Rescues can also use your unused dog food and treat coupons.
Social Media: Facebook and Twitter have becoming a valuable networking hub for pets in need. Does your local shelter have a Facebook page where they post their adoptable animals and events? All you have to do is click "share." If you do it just once a day, you won't annoy your friends and you may help to save a life. Some people put up "crossposter" pages where all they do is post adoptable animals. Friend some of these people so that you can share what they're posting. One Twitter page that helps animals is AdoptAPet – follow them and share their posts.
Prevention: Preventing a dog from entering the shelter system is a blessing. Some people can't afford to feed their pets, especially at this tough time – that's where pet food banks come in. They exist all over the country. You can find a few at the Save Our Pets Food Bank's site or Google "pet food bank" along with your city and see what comes up. Then donate your pet food coupons to them, or buy an extra bag of dog food each time you shop and drop it off there. Or, maybe you can find someone in your area in need and help them directly.
If you have a few extra bucks in your pocket, how about "adopting" someone else's pet and help pay for their medical needs? What a kind and wonderful thing to do if you can afford it. How about sponsoring a spay/neuter for a needy family, who otherwise might allow their dog to make puppies? Every kind soul should have the right to know the love of a dog, but sometimes it's hard to make ends meet. Helping a family keep a dog makes a huge impact for both the family and the dog, who now will not have to die in a shelter.

great ideas...I've supported Freekibble and The Animal Rescue Site for years and urge others to do so as well. Couldn't be easier!

Wolf Starchild Asks About Sweaty Feet in Shoes:
I have gone barefoot nearly my entire life. When I wear shoes, sandals or boots, my feet get so hot, sweaty and then start to swell until I am barefoot again. Often even sandals will make them sweat and swell. Other than get a doctors note to go barefoot, what else can I do?
Dr. Nirenberg replies:
I love that you have gone barefoot nearly your entire life! That is great, and generally, going barefoot is very healthy for our feet. Unfortunately, at some point, we are forced to wear shoes and for the sweat glands on our feet this is a problem.
Our feet are not meant to be confined to shoes–the more you are barefoot, typically the better.
When a foot is entombed in dark, secure shoe, the sweat of our feet has nowhere to go—it can't evaporate. Often, bacteria can fester, leading to foot odor and infections. (Sweat in itself does not have a odor but the bacteria cause the odor).
In areas of the world where people do not wear shoes, sweaty feet and for that matter, foot odor, is rarely a problem.
Our feet our loaded with sweat glands. In fact, our feet have a higher concentration of sweat glands than any other part of our body. Some people's feet can secrete up to half a pint of perspiration a day! The medical term for over-active sweat glands is hyperhidrosis.
Excessively sweaty feet (hyperhidrosis) can cause athlete's foot, blisters, foot odor, infections, and can be just plain irritating.
What Causes Our Feet to Sweat Too Much?
Excessively sweaty feet may be due to hormonal imbalance, thyroid problems, or your genetics. Hot weather can worsen sweaty, wet feet, though I have seen the problem occur in the winter too.
As mentioned above, shoes are a big part of the problem. Make sure your shoes are breathable as possible. In general, avoid shoes with synthetic materials such as vinyl, plastic or nylon. Wear leather shoes if possible.
How Can I Treat My Sweaty Feet?
1.Sprinkle a good foot powder, one with zinc, in your socks.
2.Use a good spray anti-perspirant on your feet, such as Gold Bond Foot Spray
3. Wash your feet daily. This doesn't mean standing in the shower and letting the water hit your tootsies! Use antibacterial hand soap and wash your entire foot, including between the toes. Then dry your foot completely (and dry between the toes).
4. Wear good socks that wick moisture away from your feet, and change the socks twice a day.
5. Whenever possible, do not wear shoes or socks—go barefoot and let the air at your feet.
6. Wear different shoes each day–let the shoes air out, preferably in sunlight, and spray the inside of your shoes each day with Lysol. Lysol does not kill all germs, but it does kill many of them.
What Can a Podiatrist Do For Excessively Sweaty Feet?
If your sweaty feet persists, a podiatrist can prescribe topical medications to lessen the sweating.
If you have severe hyperhidrosis, some podiatrists will inject botox into your foot. Yes, you heard right! Botox can help your feet, though I doubt this is something our new, upcoming government run healthcare will pay for (or your current insurance). Botox does stop feet from sweating and it will last several months.
I hope this helps. Let me know how your feet do.

Retirement Toolkit
After years of hard work, you are looking forward to retirement. Choosing when to retire is an important decision and involves a number of issues you may want to consider in your retirement planning. The more you know before you start making decisions, the better off you will be in retirement. This retirement toolkit is brought to you by the three federal agencies involved in key elements of your retirement planning and security: the Department of Labor, the Social Security Administration and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
Gold Star Mothers
The memory of a son or daughter killed in military action never will diminish. It eats at that person's memories and causes an aching heart. These surviving mothers, inspired by their faith and determination, have the awesome challenge to continue through life. Can those of us who have never had the experience of opening the door to such news, "Your son/daughter will not be coming home. He/she has been killed in action." know and we cannot, of course, feel this shocking pain?
Phil Toussaint, Golf and The Art of Calligraphy
Can you think of any connection between having nice handwriting and being a good golfer? "Of course not," comes your puzzled reply, "there is none. Dumb question." Well, perhaps. And then, perhaps not. The article which follows is about a gentleman I met recently who has been sought for his services by many different entities over the past several years, primarily because of his skill in calligraphy, and yet he is also one of the best amateur golfers in Wisconsin.

Hobnobbing with Presidents was routine with Ted Knap
That's not a spelling error in the headline above; it's Knap with one "P," thank you. It's a Polish name, and the way it is spelled in Poland. Ted Knap. (Actually he was christened Thaddeus L. Knap.) His parents immigrated to Milwaukee way back in the World War I years. The family then lived in a middle class neighborhood on Milwaukee's east side, and that's where Ted and his three brothers and one sister grew up. They attended St. Mary Czestochowa Elementary and Messmer High Schools.

People must be suspicious of leaders at any level, who would much prefer to schedule a meeting to discuss a decision than to make one while leading the way. You could never accuse Hartland Village President Dave Lamerand of abdicating his leadership responsibilities to committees. He faces any and all village problems head-on and reacts with class, if not in the manner that all those in the village chambers at any given time may wish.

2 . Build a system. In any form of internet marketing, it is necessary that you know a lot of people. As continues to be said, in an internet business, who else you know matters more than whatever you know. Therefore , find individuals through networking. Look into particular industries, professional associations, companies, and other groups. Associate with some other experts in your chosen market and internet marketing experts.

Surefire Ways to Produce Online Revenue
The following sentences summarize the work of On the internet Revenue experts who are totally familiar with all the aspects of On the internet Revenue. Heed their guidance to avoid any Online Income surprises.
You may not consider all you just read to be important information about Online Revenue. However don't be surprised if you find yourself keeping in mind and using this very info in the next few days.
Let's encounter it…
We're in it for your budget. Oh sure, marketing can be fun, an excellent it all comes down to it, non-e of us would be going through the effort if there wasn't money to become made at it.
Right now for some, money seems to circulation their way without restraining. Not doubt you've noticed how some people make 1000s of dollars every day, automatically, without much work at all. In fact , some in order to make, what appears to be a good unrealistic amount of money in internet marketing.
Whether some claims tend to be unreal or not, there really is an unlimited amount of earnings that can be earned over the Internet every day, if you know how to get it.
Just how does one generate the type of money many of these claimants appear to make in marketing?
To begin with, you need to know that only very few create enormous amounts of money from one solitary niche market. Most marketers possess multiple niches they function which all add up to the fantastic incomes they claim.
The times of making huge cash windfalls from a single campaign gone the way of the "how in order to market" gurus. Unless somebody comes up with a breakthrough item that knocks everyone away their feet, most of us have an extremely slim chance of bringing in the best money from this form of bulk marketing.
Having said that, we can right now look at the five basic methods for you to generate revenue with a smaller sized scale, targeted or niched market strategy.
1 . Composing and marketing your own items:
Creating your own ebooks nevertheless can be effective as long as you stay away from the "How To Market" arena. A good writer produce ebooks on various specific material derived from keyword queries. Find out what people are searching for the majority of and write about it.
second . Marketing via a Reseller's Legal rights Package:
If you're not good in writing, you might consider marketing other people's products. There are numerous e-books that come with reseller's rights, a few give it to when you purchase the actual ebook, others require and extra fee for the right to that. Once you have the reseller's legal rights, you can market these products to hold 100% of the profits.
three. Promoting Affiliate Program Products:
Affiliate marketing programs like ClickBank let you market thousands of products as their affiliate marketer. Most ClickBank affiliate commission rates range from 35% to 70 percent. Many of the products are based on Online marketing, but there are plenty of non-marketing items to make it worth while to join free of charge.
In conjunction with ClickBank, you could turn out to be an affiliate of ClickBliss, or some kind of number of other programs which help you promote ClickBank items by giving you ad systems with your ClickBank ID hyperlinks on them. You can put these types of towers on any and all of the webpages.
You could also consider marketing tangible items through an affiliates program like Commission Junction. Most of the big name stores use CJ to build their online affiliate marketer base which gives you the chance to market just about anything any "brick and mortar" store on the planet sells.
And there's a "new kid on the block" known as PayDotCom that allows you to affiliate marketplace both downloadable products and real drop shipped items.
four. Using Google AdSense:
Search engines AdSense, like ClickBliss, enables you to place a "tower" associated with ads on all of your webpages. Income is derived from your visitors simply clicking the ads. Advertisers spend a certain amount per click to advertise along with AdSense, and so you get a percent of the revenue from every click received from your websites.
Google AdSense is probably the number 1 income generator for market markets. AdSense "senses" the information of your website and shows topic appropriate ads helping you to keep your site completely specific. As your readers read your articles, AdSense shows them advertisements for further information about that very subject. Highly effective!
5. Selling upon EBay:
From selling products you get from yard product sales to being a drop delivery agent for corporate bulk suppliers, EBay give you many ways to create an income. They charge the nominal fee to become a home Merchant, but it's really worth what you can earn via this outlet.
Regardless of that income avenue your select, or if you choose to use mixtures of the above, or every one of them on the same campaign, the idea you have to remember is…
If you're getting a successful Niche Marketer, you have to "think small to make it large. "
Find targeted key phrases about one topic, collect the products that most closely line up with that topic, provide lots of content about it, and market your finished package to people you think would value this the most.
Doing this over and over again with various keyword rich topics will have you boasting about your enormous income before long!
Take time to consider the points introduced above. What you learn might help you overcome your doubt to take action.

Another name for Visionaries and Of Mexican Descent member 2Mex, Songodsuns first showed up in the mid-'90s when 2Mex and some friends, including DJ Nobody, got together to make a record. However, other commitments prevented an album from coming out, though a single, "Love Fights Back," was released in 1999. Finally, between incessant touring, 2Mex was able to enlist help from producers Sa-Ra, KeyKool, Babu, Subtitle, and DJ Khalil, among others, and set about recording, using the moniker Songodsuns as a way to express his interest in other forms of music besides hip-hop (he admitted to being heavily influenced by They Might Be Giants, Elliott Smith, and the Cure). Over the Counter Culture, though it was definitely a rap album, boasted musical beats under 2Mex's rough-voiced flow, and was issued on Up Above in 2005. ~ Marisa Brown

Tottenham Hotspur's visit to Fulham this weekend marks the first time they have faced old manager Martin Jol since the Dutchman was sacked in October 2007.
Jol's departure was a bitter ending to what had on the whole been three of Spurs' most positive years in the Premier League era.
The assistant manager to Jacques Santini, Jol was appointed his replacement after the Frenchman resigned after a few short months in charge. It was an emotional time in the club's recent history with the passing of legendary manager Bill Nicholson coming shortly before Jol took over.
Far from being eased into things, Jol's first game in charge was a ridiculous and goal-stuffed 5-4 defeat to Arsenal in the north London derby.
Yet, the crazy nature of the derby was something of a cathartic experience which freed up the inhibitions of a side that had looked stale under Santini. Within weeks, an eight-game unbeaten run in the Premier League set Spurs up for its first genuine crack at a European place in years—an effort that ultimately fell short by a few points (Bolo Zenden dived to win a free-kick that saw rivals for a spot; Middlesbrough win the pivotal penultimate game 1-0).
But for the first in a while, Tottenham had some reasons to be cheerful—a mood that carried forth into the following two seasons as the club achieved two consecutive fifth-place finishes and enjoyed a memorable return to European competition.
Jol was undoubtedly a major reason for that as he assembled a squad full of young and exciting talent—the first in some time actually capable of slugging it out with rivals like Arsenal and Chelsea.
Time has passed since then, but there will likely always be a fondness at White Hart Lane for a man who made Tottenham Hotspur genuinely worth talking about again.
Here are five of the great moments of the Martin Jol era...

Charleston City Council took a first step toward outlawing smoking for blocks around the downtown hospital district, giving initial approval to establish a special Tobacco-Free Zone.
Mayor Joe Riley and others called the move good public-health policy, while others on council said a slippery slope is now in play.
One argument aired at Tuesdays council meeting is that the city has opened the door for all sorts of entities to begin asking that smoking be banned on public spaces and sidewalks in front of their operations as well.
Were dealing with public streets that are owned and paid for by every citizen, smoker and non-smoker alike, councilman Aubrey Alexander said in speaking against the proposal.
Councilman Robert Mitchell added that the prohibition arguably could be considered an attack on hard-fought human rights, since the effort means a freedom is being lost through the way we are taking away the sidewalks.
The ordinance, which passed first reading at Tuesdays council meeting, creates a fine between $10 and $25 for anyone caught smoking in about a 10-block zone around Roper Hospital and the Medical University of South Carolina. It faces two more readings, probably in January, before becoming city law.
The effort came at the request of Roper and MUSC, whose leadership said second-hand smoking and the habit of smokers littering sidewalks with butts has created a health hazard and litter nuisance.
This is not about denying people their right to smoke, MUSC President Ray Greenberg told council Tuesday. Instead, the bigger issue is preventing patients from having to walk through clouds of smoke to get to their health care provider, Greenberg said. We just want them to move a little bit away from the patients at risk.
MUSC and Roper have gone smoke-free, but both campuses daily feature patients and staff members who duck outside to light up, many of whom drop butts on the ground afterward or congregate near doorways.
While first reading passed on a tight voice vote, members of council agreed that the ordinance still needs to be tweaked, with some saying the smoke-free zone is just too big, stretching from parts of Calhoun Street to the Septima P. Clark Parkway.
Councilman James Lewis suggested a more fitting northern boundary would be around Bee Street.
One reason the size was drawn so large is so that all of the Roper and MUSC office spaces could be incorporated, officials said. City staff also said some locals encouraged the zone to be even larger than presented.
If the zone does take effect, supporters say fines wont be the goal, and that enforcement could be accomplished through warnings and education. The ban does not apply to anyone smoking in vehicles moving through the restricted area.
Riley said that national health research and the mood of the country support taking steps to curtail medical patients from coming into contact with the dangers of second-hand smoke.
Its sound public policy, he said.

Opinions are split on a proposed California law that would force motorcyclists to pipe down
Interesting article from the Associated Press, originally from the Fresno (Calif.) Bee, by staff writer Jim Guy:
That rumble rolling up Valley roads on warm summer evenings is sweet music to some -- and a buzz-kill for others.
It's the roar of motorcycles, revving at stoplights and thundering up and down the street, bouncing shock waves off buildings like the soundtrack of a 1960s biker movie.
For some motorcyclists, the noise is as much a part of the riding experience as fresh air. Harley-Davidson even sought to patent the potato-potato sound of its engines a decade ago.
Some riders pump up the volume even more by removing stock catalytic converters and adding aftermarket pipes in search of better performance -- and an ear-splitting roar that can infuriate patio diners or sidewalk latté drinkers.
While some bikers revel in the sound, others justify it by saying it protects them from inattentive motorists. "Loud pipes save lives," is their mantra.
Nonsense, says Fresno motorcycle Sgt. Eric Eide, who rides an ultra-quiet BMW.
"Straight pipes are hugely offensive," he said. "It's a quality-of-life issue."
Noise "is one of those things that needs to be addressed."
That appears to be happening. A proposed law working its way through the California Legislature, SB 435 by State Sen. Fran Pavley (D-Agoura Hills), targets modified motorcycle exhausts that produce more air pollution.
The bill also aims at the extra noise generated by after-market motorcycle exhausts.
Local opinions are as sharply divided as they were during a recent Sacramento hearing on the bill.
Scott Maddox, who was standing near his Harley-Davidson on Olive Avenue, didn't think it was fair to single out motorcycles.
"I don't know if it's any more noise than when a city bus goes by," he said.
Karey Wedemeyer, who was enjoying ice cream at an outdoor table, seemed to agree.
"It's no more a problem than [loud] stereos," she said. "It's more the stereos that bother me."
Several blocks up the street, bicyclist Kevin Statham disagreed.
"No one should have the right to inflict their noise [on others] as they drive down the street," he said. "Ridiculous."
Said Mariam Widenham, who tends bar on Olive: "If you start it up and go, it's cool. But if you're revving it ... it's rude."
Martin Garcia, who rides a Yamaha cruiser, concedes that the temptation to do just that sometimes takes over.
"Everyone does it," he said. "They want to see how loud their bike is ... like we don't know it's loud enough already."
Eide attributes the excessive noise to some motorcyclists trying to emulate the outlaw biker lifestyle through loud exhausts, faux-Nazi helmets and skull facial masks.
Eide said officers use a vehicle code section to cite motorcyclists for excessive noise but generally only go after extreme cases.
And it isn't always easy for police to make noise violations stick. Mary Lynne Vellinga, a legislative consultant in Pavley's Sacramento office, said the standards in the current law are not clear and tickets may not stand up in court.
She said her research shows that California Highway Patrol officers wrote just 14 citations in the past two years.
Pavley's office wants to strengthen the law and, after an initial setback, is still fine-tuning a bill that would do so, Vellinga said.
A portion of the bill that would require semi-annual smog checks for motorcycles appears dead for now, but Vellinga said her office still intends to use SB 435 to target motorcyclists who remove catalytic converters.
Under the current law, a motorcyclist cited for removing a converter often can ride home, bolt the stock exhaust back on and have the citation cleared.
That would be much more difficult if smog checks were required because many riders would need to have expensive engine modifications done to pass a tailpipe emissions test.

Cisco 1200 series access points serve both thick and thin AP roles
Are Cisco 1200 access points operated in "thick" or autonomous mode or as a thin AP, a lightweight access point that is controlled by a central controller? An expert explains.
Is the Cisco 1200 series access point considered a "thick AP" or a "thin AP" and why?

When set to autonomous mode, the Cisco 1200 acts as a stand-alone AP that is managed directly through its own GUI/CLI and performs all control functions without supervision. When upgraded to lightweight AP (LWAPP) mode, the Cisco 1200 is supervised by a Cisco WLAN Controller which provides centralized administration and carries out control plane tasks (like authentication and key caching) on behalf of all APs. These two modes are often referred to as "thick" (autonomous) and "thin" (lightweight).
However, distribution of functionality varies in various APs described as "thick" and "thin." The primary question is whether a WLAN controller is required to use the AP in a fully-functional way. Some APs that are mostly autonomous still rely on a central management console for configuration and monitoring – but that doesn't make them "thin." Similarly, some APs that work best when supervised by a WLAN controller can continue to work (with diminished capacity) if the controller becomes unreachable – but that doesn't make them "thick."
To decide whether an AP is thick or thin, look carefully at where control plane tasks are performed, including radio management, authentication, key caching, traffic filtering, and QoS enforcement. If another system is needed to perform control functions on behalf of all APs, those APs are to some extent "thin."

Bone health is important for overall health and quality of life. Healthy bones provide the body with a frame that allows for mobility and for protection against injury. They also serve as a storehouse for important minerals. As people enter their forties and fifties, they tend to lose more bone tissue, resulting in low bone mass. Fractures are a major concern for older adults with low bone mass.
Osteoporosis is a disease that makes bones become fragile and more likely to break. If it is not prevented or treated, it can progress painlessly. Because of this, it is often called "the silent disease." A condition where bone density is lower than normal and is believed to occur before osteoporosis is osteopenia. However, not every person diagnosed with osteopenia will develop osteoporosis.
Millions of Americans are at risk for this disease. Women are four times more likely than men to get Osteoporosis. As a result, it is often viewed as a "women's disease." However, men also get osteoporosis. There are 2 million American men with this disease. Another 12 million men are at risk. Even with the large number of men affected, it still remains under-diagnosed and under-reported.
There are factors that may increase one's chance of developing osteoporosis. While some risk factors cannot be changed (non-modifiable), other factors can be changed (modifiable).
Risk factors that cannot be changed:
Risk factors that can be changed:
Other factors can also play a role in developing osteoporosis, such as certain chronic illnesses (such as, anorexia, celiac disease) or medicines (for example, glucocorticoids).
A Bone Mineral Density (BMD) test is the most effective way to find osteoporosis. Several types of BMD tests are available. The most widely available method is called dual DXA (PDF). This test measures BMD in the spine, hip, or forearm.
If a BMD test has to be repeated, it is important to use the same testing machine at the same facility. Plus, how you are positioned on follow-up scans should also be the same. This helps your health care provider accurately compare your latest test results with those of a previous test.
What does the BMD result mean? The results of your BMD test are usually reported as a "T score." The T score compares your bone density with that of healthy young adults. The World Health Organization (WHO) has defined T-scores and what they mean.
Screening recommendations for osteoporosis.
Several major organizations have made recommendations for screening based on careful review of the research available. To learn more, talk with your health care provider about what is right for you.
The best way to good bone health is through prevention. There are many things you can do in your daily life to maintain bone health and prevent osteoporosis.

Dr. Sahinler knows what he's doing! I highly recommend him.
His staff made a scheduling appointment which I caught before I left in June. Apparently they didn't correct it and when I got back from 30 days in Korea for the army, even though I had asked them to change it to Oct 2., the dr dropped me for missing the Sept 16th appointment. They wouldn't even discuss it with me. I wouldn't recommend him for my dog!
Dr. Sahinler's office staff was amazing when my PCP had not sent over the referral, got it taken care of so I could see the doctor. When I saw the doctor, he was very thorough in his exam & got me in immediately for my spinal injection. His bedside manner is patient & caring and at every turn, asked me if I had any questions about what he was doing or going to do. I would recommend him to anyone in my family.
Great job at talking to me about back pain. Gave me right treatment
We love Dr. Sahinler and trust him explicidely
I'd heard lots of good stuff about Dr Sahinler so I made an appointment and left a copy of my records with his receptionist so he could review my history prior to the appointment. A few days before my appointment his office called and said Dr Sahinler wouldnât see because there was nothing he could do for me but I was given a referral to a neuro-surgeon. After examining me the neuro-surgeon sent me to a different pain specialist who quickly identified and treated the problem. I guess the best thing I can say about Dr Sahinler is he knows his limitations.
takes care of you until you run out of money or ins, then drops you like a rock.
I will never go back. This doctor is very rude and has a HORRIBLE bed-side manner. I do not recommend him.
We were referred to this doctor through our back doctor in Dallas. We were here for a epidural steriod injection. Office is awesome and staff friendly and nice. Iverall i liked him. Although he dud get abrassive when I questioned his treatnent. We've been dealing with thus injury for over a year and only were teferred for onjection. I gad hoped the two doctors had discussed the case. we are past pills at this point. That's the only reason for my question and i dont think he was happy with me.
Dr. Sahinler has been my doctor for about 4 years. He has been kind, gentle, and a great listener. His staff has been just as caring and helpful. They have bent over backwards to help control the chronic pain. I appreciate his CNP also. They are both professionals with great bedside manners. The nurses and office staff are the same way.
I started at this office being told by my neurosurgeon I would need a nerve burn. For 7 months, I called on a weekly basis to this office trying to get answers. Not only would they never respond to my pain medication requests by my pharmacy AT ALL, but they kept telling me that my insurance would not pay for a nerve burn! Then, the office manager told me she would get the nerve burn covered. She talked to me a couple of times, and then avoided me like the plague after that. TO TOP IT ALL OFF, I went to a new pain management physician AFTER WASTING NEARLY A YEAR in extreme pain. Somehow, they had absolutely zero problem with the insurance covering the procedure! Same year, same insurance policy! That is not right! I have been suffering needlessly because Dr Sahindler's office staff is either lazy, incompetent, or both. Don't be a victim as well!
Plain and simple, he listens and talks to you while explaining in detail what he has found. He's quick but you don't feel rushed, I will probably be going to him for the rest of my life for my back issues.
I had been going to Dr. Sahinler for about 6 years now due to migraines. I thought he was very helpful in the beginning. We did many pain blocks, pills, even referrals to other doctors. I'm still having major pain to this day, and I'm no longer able to work or have any life at all. My mother and I have been doing research over migraines for a while and we decided we would go to Dallas and try for an implant. My only issue was that the Dallas doctor wouldn't prescribe any meds. So it was one of those doctors you see long enough for the procedure, then go back to your normal doctor to deal with the soreness after the procedure. The moment Dr. Sahinler found out we had an appointment with the other doctor, he would no longer see me. Now due to insurance issues, I haven't been able to get that other procedure, and I no longer have a doctor to help with my pain. I have to go to the Emergency Room on a regular basis. If you have an easy problem, Dr. Sahinler is an awesome guy... but once he can't figure it out, he'll drop you instantly with no help. Back at square one. He isn't worth your time. From what I've heard, I'm not the only one he's dropped recently in the time of need. Don't let him use you for your money.
Dr. Sahinler has been a graet doctor for me. I have had doctors (6) in the past 20 years and even in the (US Marines) tell me my pain was from bad headaches or migranes. Dr.Sahinler asked me about my pain and and worked to help me stop or manage the pain, before other doctors would not listen and the pain was always there and a problem. Thank you doctor for helping live a more comfortable life.
thank you and your staff are great. Should have gone to you 1st. my life is better than even NOW
very upbeat, and genuinely caring. You are more than a name on a chart to him & his staff.
Dr. Sahinler and his staff are awesome. He is the only Dr. that correctly diagnosed the cause of my lower back pain. His experienced staff are pleasant and friendly. I would recommend Dr. Sahinler to anybody in pain.
