Parente earns himself the title!
By just making it onto the podium in the penultimate race of the season, Alvaro Parente (Tech 1 Racing) has earned himself the 2007 World Series Formula Renault 3.5 Championship title. The race win went to Miguel Molina (Pons Racing) ahead of Salvador Duran (Interwetten.com). The Catalonian may however still be stripped of victory due to incidents off the track. By finishing in fourth, Pavlovic pulls back a point on Hanley in the battle for second place overall.
After having been deemed responsible for an accident during race two at Estoril, Molina should have been put back ten places on the grid for this race. Given that Pons Racing has lodged a suspensive appeal with the Portuguese motorsport federation, he was able to drive his race normally at the risk of being disqualified from this meeting should his appeal be rejected.
Having lined up on the damper side of the track, Parente tucked in behind Duran, who got the best start from pole position. Molina managed to hold onto third ahead of Pavlovic, Van der Garde, Aleshin, Wickens, Barba, Baguette and Valsecchi.
Richard Philippe went off the course on lap two, but the stewards were able to clear his car from the track quickly. With three laps gone, Duran and Parente had managed to build a slight lead over Molina while Hanley had moved up into 12th ahead of Nuñez.
On lap four, Duran made an error which allowed Parente to try an attack. The Mexican held firm to defend his lead. The first drivers started to come in to refuel at the end of lap six. Barba managed to rejoin the race despite the fact that his car was spilling smoke from a loose gearbox oil radiator hose.
Parente and Albuquerque came in for their tyre changes on lap 7. Parente rejoined 33''690 adrift off Duran. Hanley then came into the pits on the following lap. Now well clear, Duran and Molina had a 9-second lead over Van der Garde.
At the end of lap 12, the race was still being led by Duran, followed by Molina, Van der Garde and Baguette. Aleshin then chose to come in for his stop. Parente was at this stage clocked at 37''2 behind the leader. Duran, Molina and Van der Garde made their stops on the following lap. With their home crowd right behind them, the Pons Racing mechanics pulled off a perfect stop to enable the young Catalonian to regain the lead over the Mexican!
Both men rejoined the race with a three-second lead over Alvaro Parente. After making his stop, Bertrand Baguette rejoined in 8th position behind Pavlovic, Van der Garde, Aleshin and Wickens. Valsecchi and Albuquerque rounded off the provisional top ten.
With ten laps to go, Hanley made it through into 10th. On the penultimate lap, Aleshin managed to pass Van der Garde to move up into fifth. On the last lap, Valsecchi dropped out of the top 10, meaning that Nuñez was able to earn himself a point and a start from pole tomorrow!
Miguel Molina: "I got off to a good start but I got held up behind Alvaro and was unable to attack as much as I'd have liked. When he came into the pits, I was able to push on a bit before making my pitstop. It's superb to take my second home win."
Salvador Duran: "This weekend we changed certain things on the car and we managed to put ourselves back at the forefront of things. We missed out on the win because I made a slight error during the tyre change."
Alvaro Parente: "We knew that we would be competitive here once again and we proved just that by qualifying on the front row. After making my stop I found myself in a bit of traffic which prevented me from being able to fight it out for the win. Obviously I'm really happy to have secured the title. I really can't wait to test the Renault F1 and I hope that it will provide me with an opportunity to develop my career still further.

Two SSHS seniors recognized for intelligence, writing skill
From Staff Reports
Oct 1, 2007 - Two Sulphur Springs High School seniors will be putting down some prestigious honors when filling out their scholarship applications this year.
Kaylon Page has qualified for the National Achievement Scholarship Program, and Allison Hefner was honored as an outstanding writer in the 2007 NCTE Achievement Awards in Writing by the Nation Council of Teachers of English.
Page is among 3,000 outstanding National Achievement Scholarship Program participants being referred to U.S. colleges and universities. He scored in the top 5 percent of 140,000 Black Americans who requested consideration in the 2008 National Achievement Program when he took the 2006 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. A roster of the students' names, high schools and tentative college major choices will be sent to about 1,500 colleges universities.
�Participants being referred to higher education institutions have shown academic promise but will not continue in the competition for Achievement Scholarship awards,� Robert T. Carter, NASP director of operations, wrote in a letter to the high school principal.
NASP also sent a certificate honoring Page's achievement. Page was presented the certificate by SSHS Principal John McCullough Friday.
NASP program was initiated in 1964 "to honor academically promising Black American high school students."
Students taking the PSAT/NMSQT later this month can denote whether they want to be considered for evaluation for the 2009 program.
SSHS senior Allison Hefner was one of 30 students in Texas to be recognized by the National Council of Teachers of English. Across the country, only 595 high school seniors were named outstanding writers through the NCTE Achievement Awards in Writing program.
To be considered, students had to be nominated in their junior year of high school located in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, the Virgin Islands, Canada or American schools abroad. Nominated were 1,937 students this year.
A team of English teachers from across Texas judged Hefner and other Texas students' writing samples which was to include "their own best prose or verse or on impromptu themes that are written under supervision." The teachers were instructed to look "for writing that demonstrates effective and imaginative use of language to inform and move an audience."
Students and schools get certificates, and both names are noted on the NCTE website. Students also receive cards to include with their college applications. Congress and chief state school officers also receive letters with the students' names and schools.
The program was established in 1957 to encourage high school students to write and to "recognize publicly some of the beset student writers in the nation," according to information provided by NCTE.

Our treatment team includes experienced professionals who provide a safe detox. - Pax Prentiss, CEO Passages Malibu
Malibu, CA (PRWEB) April 29, 2014
The American Academy of Pain and Medicine issued a new report on March 6th that analyzed more than 3 billion visits by American to their primary care providers between 2002 and 2009. A subsequent analysis of those visits revealed that 12.6% were related to prescriptions for sedatives and narcotic painkillers.
On average, the number of visits related to sedatives and painkillers rose by 12.5% each year.
The trend showed that dual prescriptions for both pain medication and sedatives rose by another 12% each year, and that patients who received prescriptions for opioid painkillers were four times as likely to receive sedatives prescriptions as well.
"Prescription medications have the potential for dependence, especially for individuals who have not yet resolved past trauma," said Pax Prentiss, CEO of Passages Addiction Treatment Centers. "Our treatment team includes experienced professionals who provide a safe detox."
More information in the study revealed that individuals taking both sedative and painkiller combinations comprised 30% of deaths related to prescription medication. The study called for stronger communication between primary care physicians and pain specialists, in order to more safely coordinate patient care.
The study authors also shared concerns over prescription medication and emergency room visits, falls among elderly patients, as well as physical and psychological dependence.
At Passages Malibu - Addiction Ends Here™
About Passages Malibu & Passages Ventura:
Father and son team Chris and Pax Prentiss founded Passages Malibu in 2001. Its second location, Passages Ventura, first opened its doors in 2009. The two drug, alcohol, and prescription abuse treatment centers offer an alternative to the 12 step/AA model of addiction treatment by utilizing a holistic program that focuses on the underlying issues of substance dependency, rather than attributing addiction to an incurable disease.
Both Passages Malibu and Passages Ventura accept insurance and each have earned the coveted Joint Commission (JCAHO) accreditation, which has only been given to 6% of the nation's behavioral health treatment programs.
Passages Malibu was named the #1 treatment center in the world by Healthcare Global, one of the "Most Luxurious Places to Dry Out" by Forbes magazine, and the Huffington Post recently acknowledged Passages as a center that "caters to a high-end crowd, with many CEOs, entrepreneurs and high-powered professionals among its clients."
The co-founders are also authors of an acclaimed series of addiction treatment books, including their groundbreaking, flagship title, The Alcoholism & Addiction Cure.

For the State of Palestine, as UNESCO recognizes it, the application for the church was a trial run.
"The two events are very similar," UNESCO Assistant Director-General for Culture, Francesco Bandarin, told The Daily Beast.
For these reasons we can expect a big fight in the coming months at UNESCO, and Palestine could have the upper hand.
Perhaps Israel should petition UNESCO to recognize Beitar as a world heritage site, fence or no fence.
UNESCO had previously decided to admit "Palestine" as a full voting member.
Most of his speech was an attack on the second ideology and those who he saw as spreading it like UNESCO and Bill Gates.
There are six UNESCO biosphere reserves and nine UNESCO World Heritage sites.
Six UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Syria have been destroyed in Syria since the fighting began.
In 1979 the Durbar Square of each city was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
In 2009, Mumtaz says Singh buttonholed him at a UNESCO conference in Dubai.

* Canadian dollar at C$1.1115 or 89.97 U.S. cents * Bond prices mostly higher across maturity curve By Leah Schnurr TORONTO, Feb 5 (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar weakened against the greenback on Wednesday as the market sought direction after a recent correction and as investors trained their focus on employment reports on both sides of the border at the end of the week. Disappointing economic data added to the softer tone as the value of Canadian building permits fell unexpectedly in December, with residential permits sinking for a second straight month. After hitting a 4-1/2 year low last week, the loonie has managed to regain some ground in recent days, rising for the past four sessions. "I still think the general tone is probably corrective for the Canadian dollar, we saw a pretty significant turnaround of the liquidation trade late last week," said Shaun Osborne, chief currency strategist at TD Securities in Toronto. Still, analysts say the factors that have pressured the loonie over the past few months - including a more dovish stance from the Bank of Canada - have not gone away and are likely to continue to weigh on the currency. "I think this is a pause in the trend. You've got to remember we've come from C$1.02 in September up to C$1.12 without any real correction at all," Osborne said. "So I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a bit of a shake-out just from a short-term point of view, but we still think that you've got to be looking to get long U.S. dollar-Canadian dollar." The Canadian dollar was at C$1.1115 to the greenback, or 89.97 U.S. cents, weaker than Tuesday's close of C$1.1081, or 90.24 U.S. cents. Investors were looking ahead to Friday's Canadian employment report, which is expected to show hiring picked up in January after the economy unexpectedly shed jobs at the end of last year. At the same time, data in the United States is expected to show the economy added 185,000 jobs last month after disappointing job growth in December. Data earlier on Wednesday showed U.S. private employers added 175,000 jobs last month, shy of economists' expectations for 180,000. Canadian government bond prices were mostly higher across the maturity curve, with the two-year up 0.7 Canadian cent to yield 0.958 percent and the benchmark 10-year up 9 Canadian cents to yield 2.339 percent.

It All Comes Together Beret
This pattern is available for free.
This beret uses a sprinkle stitch pattern at the bottom for texture, but through the decreases, the sprinkled purl stitches grow closer and closer together until you're left with a circle of reverse stockinette at the crown. This design was born out of a desire for a simple beret with a little something for interest.

|Review by: Lynda L. Hinkle
If you enter the search term internet chat room cancer into Google, you will get over 800,000 hits; a true testimony to the power of the internet to connect people in need of emotional support. Phyllis Jankowiak was one such in need person, who turned to her internet chat room to get support after a diagnosis of breast cancer added to her already complex series of physical problems including multiple sclerosis.
One day in the chat room, Jankowiak is convinced by her supportive friends to write a book of her experiences, and thus her Journey From Pain to Love is born. She attempts to present to us a series of voices, the clever aliases used in chat sliding off to reveal real human beings who spend an almost endless amount of time; it would seem, online, supporting each other through diagnosis, survival and sometimes death.
Unfortunately, beyond what I have constructed above, there is very little narrative flow to this book that jumps back and forth between seemingly unconnected stories, voices and opinions. For example, in the midst of her cancer survival tales she talks of opposing the war in Iraq without giving a convincing reason why these two ideas should be presented together. The theme of the book, the journey that the author herself periodically has to pull out and examine, but never quite gets a total grip upon, is the process of healing from terminal illness, both physically and emotionally. But in addition to being disorganized, the book frequently lapses into horrible grammar and typographical faux pas that detract significantly from its intention: to capture the spirit of survival and love for ones fellow humans evident in Jankowiaks chat room experiences. Instead, it reads like a first draft that should have been far more carefully edited and reworked before being published.
This is not to suggest that Jankowiak fails to offer anything of value. For someone currently struggling with a cancer diagnosis, this book may very well offer some real comfort. Jankowiak invites survivors to enter into her internet world and locate understanding. Oddly, though, she does not actually suggest a chat room to go to or provide a list of places one might visit or how to go about it, so this book is not for those without some internet savvy already.

LOVE these books! Weather is always a popular topic and this book is so broad in it's coverage (pun intended) that you could use it in a variety of ways - it really helps students organize a large variety of information. The historical aspect of the topics covered makes this a cross-curricular gem. You could literally use the book in 3 or 4 subjects on the same day and never discuss the same bit of information.

Wind, rain, snow, fog, frost, and sunshine are all signs of the constant shifting Earth's atmosphere. This continual change is what we call weather. The weather changes in four ways - its movement, which can bring winds; its temperature, which can cause anything from frost to heatwaves; its moisture content, which can bring rain; and its pressure, which can cause cloudless days or fierce storms -- taken from wall chart.… (more)

The fennec spends the heat of the day comfortably curled up in its burrow, with its nose tucked away under its big bushy tail.
And yet, correctly speaking, it was not a fox neither, but a fennec.
The above fennec was about ten inches long, the tail five inches and a quarter, near an inch of it on the tip, black.
The fennec is a creature of the desert, and lives in burrows which it scoops out in the sand.

|Here is the project I have to do :
Write a program that dynamically allocates an array large enough to hold a user-defined number of test scores (for one student). Do not accept negative numbers for test scores! Once all the scores are entered, the array should be passed to a function that drops the lowest score and calculates the average of the remaining scores. The result must be displayed in main. Your function must have the void return type (think about proper list of function parameters!).
Use pointer notations rather than subscripts whenever possible!
Here is code again:
I still trying work avg. but i need this code to work first:
if( n_scores > 1 ) n_scores = dropgrade( score, n_scores );
double average( const double* pointer_to_first_score, const double* pointer_to_last_score ) ;

Women with the Guard or Reserve find themselves with few coping resources after returning from battle Researcher calls situation dire, invites servicewomen to meetingA University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) researcher is arranging a gathering for women of the National Guard or Army Reserve back from the frontlines to discuss issues and share coping strategies.
Patricia J. Kelly, Ph.D., R.N., nurse faculty member with a track record for NIH-funded, community-based, women-focused research, was prompted to take action by one of her students who, as a major in the Army Reserve, was seeing first-hand the situation faced by military women upon returning home. Some of those situations include feeling distant from their kids, flashbacks and depression. Some women experienced sexual assault, leaving them with a sense of betrayal by those who are supposed to protect them.
"This is the first time that we have had women on the front lines in a battle zone," Kelly said. "As I began researching the issue, I learned that the situation was even more dire for women from the Reserves and National Guard because they are not returning to a military base where they at least may be with others with similar experiences."
By arranging a gathering, Kelly hopes to be able to collect enough information to plan an individual or community program that would help them transition back to family and friends. If successful, the program could serve as a model for reservists and guardswomen across the country.
"I am not connected with the military in any way, but have become concerned about the needs of women who have returned from overseas and have had minimal mechanisms for processing issues from their experience," said Kelly. "We know that these issues take a toll on both your health and the health of your family."
The one-time meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. May 22 at the Clarion Hotel, 9103 E. 39th St. All information discussed will be kept in absolute confidence. RSVPs are requested, but not required. Dinner and a personal gift will be provided.
For more information, contact Dr. Kelly at (816) 235-2617 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
The UMKC School of Nursing offers a wide range of clinical experiences, research and specialty opportunities. Affiliated clinical facilities include Truman Medical Center, Children's Mercy Hospital and nearly 100 community-wide facilities in the Kansas City metro area.

Union says it wants a deal, not a lockout
By Mark Maske
Players and union officials said Thursday they are not seeking a labor confrontation with the sport's franchise owners and want to do everything possible to reach a settlement and avoid a lockout in March.
"Every player wants to play," Indianapolis Colts center Jeff Saturday said in a conference call with reporters. "Anything we would do would be in reaction to what the owners do.... We are literally waiting on the owners."
The union conducted its conference call one day after the NFL's outside labor attorney, Bob Batterman, said the leadership of the NFL Players Association wants the players to be locked out so that it can put to use its labor strategy of litigation and lobbying on Capitol Hill.
Batterman's claim was strongly denied by the union Thursday.
"Any suggestion we want a lockout is coming from outer space," Richard Berthelsen, the union's general counsel, said during the conference call.
Said Kevin Mawae, the retired NFL center who is the union's president: "We want to be on the field. We don't want a lockout. We didn't ask for this. We didn't opt out" of the labor deal.
The current labor agreement between the owners and players expires in March. The owners voted in 2008 to exercise a reopener clause and end the deal two years early.
Berthelsen said Thursday the union continues to believe that the owners will lock out the players after the agreement expires.
Batterman said Wednesday the league proposed nine possible bargaining dates to the union in December and the union took advantage of only one. Berthelsen said Thursday he was not aware of the union rejecting any proposed negotiating sessions.
Mawae said the last formal bargaining session between the two sides occurred around Thanksgiving. Berthelsen said informal discussions have continued but declined to say if any progress had been made.
The players potentially could decertify the union, a move that could keep them from being locked out and give them the ability to file an antitrust lawsuit against the owners. George Atallah, the union's assistant executive director of external affairs, said Thursday the players have authorized the decertification of the union if necessary.
"We hope it doesn't get to that point," Atallah said. "Everything has been geared toward getting a deal done at the table."

Bring on the hurricane force winds, because the Patagonia Adze Jacket will cut through them like microwaved butter. This cozy piece of outerwear is the epitome of a perfect soft shell as it is a highly breathable, waterproof, toasty, wind-destroying machine. The most crucial component is the Polartec Windbloc polyester stretch-woven fabric, which works hard to deflect wind and keep ventilation at an all-time high. The durable water repellent finish denies moisture access on the surface to keep you dry when the rain starts coming down. Retaining heat when you need it, and releasing it when you don't, the microgrid fleece interior is also crazy comfortable, like getting a hug from a teddy bear. A pair of reverse-coil zippered pockets keeps your hands warm and the internal chest pocket protects your essentials. The drawcord hem can be activated to minimize heat loss and seal out the elements when the weather gets wicked. Versatility comes standard as it can be worn as a mid or outer layer depending on the intensity of conditions. For a lightweight, comfortable fleece that performs on any occasion, zip into the Patagonia Adze Jacket.

Great Anytime Jacket!
"This is one of those jackets that you can pretty much wear anytime.

Lightweight and comfortable that protects you from the wind and keeps you pretty warm and even shields in the rain. Good color options too. "

Warning: These wiki pages have not been edited in years and may well be out of date/inaccurate. We recommend that you use them as a starting point for further investigation, rather than gospel.
== With Apache::!SubRequest ==
Jonathan Swartz provides this "make the user download $file" boilerplate:
use Apache::SubRequest;
my $subr = $r->lookup_file($file);
return 404 unless -f $file and $subr->status == 200;
return 200 if $r->header_only;
== Without Apache::!SubRequest ==
Downloading files should be a simple matter, though you need to be careful in how you build your page in order to enable the transfer to work. We ran into a problem when using what we thought was a very simple process, when we used the Apache::Request method "header_out" through the $r object.
All we wanted to do was to "force" the browser to accept the page as a file download, and take the appropriate action (e.g. opening a browser file download dialog). The symptoms of our problem included creating beautiful (and seemingly garbage filled pages) as our binary file was being parsed by the browser. The CPU utilization peaked as the browser tried to figure out what we wanted.
So then, how does one force the browser to view the coming page as a file download, and not as a page to be handed to the rendering engine?
This is how we solved it (with much assistance from the mailing list denizens)
1st: remember, its the header ....
You want to control the header. Mason will happily generate a header for you if you don't alter the process early. One of the most helpful suggestions came when it was suggested to place the correct header modification in an <%init> block at the top of the file:
Now anything tossed down to the browser will be assumed to be part of the file. Of course the content_type should be set according to the type of file being downloaded. If you are unsure what this should be, use the [Live HTTP Headers http://livehttpheaders.mozdev.org/] Firefox Extension and download the file outside of Mason.
2nd: Keep It Simple ... (the KISS principle)
You want to send the file, and a short set of meta data that will give the browser some hints on naming the downloaded data. This example is specific to unix (in the path-splitting) but the idea could be trivially extended to a non-unix like OS quite trivially.
a) declare variables and parse file path.
my (@full,$xbase,$fh,$line,$disp);
@full = split(/\//,$file);
$xbase = pop @full;
@full will contain the fully qualified file path after the split, so
will be mapped into
@full = [ '','home','landman','files','big.data.zip'];
Which as you can see, happily places the base name of the file (big.data.zip) without the rest of the path, as the last element of the array. Quite convienent for popping off into a variable. Which we do (e.g. the filename without the path is saved in $xbase)
b) set the content disposition to give the browser file naming hints.
$r->header_out('Content-disposition' => ("attachment; filename=$xbase"));
This simply adds a line to the header of:
Content-disposition: attachment; filename=big.data.zip
This line tells the browser that the download is named big.data.zip, and to use that name as the default when it pops open its file download window. If you don't use this (and you do not have to), your download will be named (by default) the same name as your page. Ours happened to be "download.html", which presented problems as we were downloading zip files.
c) dump the data.
This doesnt need to be anything fancy. We recommend that you keep it simple.
open($fh,"<".$file) or $m->redirect('file_open_failed.html?name='.$file);
while(<$fh>) { $m->print($_); }
close $fh;
open( ) or $m->redirect(...)
gives you a fighting chance to recover from failed file downloads, and send error information back to the user and admins. You do not need to use the 'or $m->redirect(...' bit, though it would be quite helpful (to you) if your code did catch errors by some mechanism.
What this gets the end user is a nice dialog box asking them to ok a
download with the name as indicated. They get the control of whether or
not to do this, where to put it and what to name it.
What we didn't cover (though we do have this in our code) are file existence testing, path accessibility testing (can the apache process read the file, look at the directory, etc). You will likely encounter many odd permissions errors that would be wise to test the file and path for in advance of opening the file.

Mine Safety and Health Administration
Contact: (703) 235-1452
October 16, 1995
Underground coal mine operators need to evaluate their mine sites to determine the potential for water outbursts from abandoned workings, the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) has informed the mining community. The warning was prompted by such a "blowout" from an abandoned mine that claimed the life of a Buchanan County, Va., woman this May.
"We need to make sure that all necessary precautions are taken when mines are abandoned to prevent similar tragedies in the future," said Davitt McAteer, assistant secretary of labor for mine safety and health.
In a program information bulletin distributed to underground mine operators and other interested parties, MSHA noted that the mining industry has long recognized that abandoned mines must be sealed in such a way as to assure that any water buildup in the abandoned works will be safely contained. In some circumstances, the agency noted, even if enough coal is left in place along the outcrop, strata directly above the coal may be too weak to contain the water buildup.
According to MSHA's report of the May accident, some 60 feet of material separated the abandoned mine workings from the surface at the point of outburst; however, only 12 to 15 feet of this material was sedimentary formations, with the remaining material being soil and loose rock.
MSHA's program information bulletin reviews current standards for abandoned mine sealing. The agency also noted that the Interior Department's Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM), along with state agencies, is currently evaluating methods of determining the size of the outcrop barrier and recommended practices may change.
The water outburst at the Jewell Smokeless Coal Corporation No. 18 mine near Whitewood, Va., on May 13, 1995, occurred through a weak layer of weathered shale above the coal bed where the coal cropped out on a hillside. The outburst of hundreds of thousands of gallons of water struck a private residence, causing the death of Tammie Keene Givens, 26.
"While MSHA's enforcement jurisdiction over the mine had ended earlier, after the mine operator sealed it and notified MSHA that it had been abandoned, MSHA and the entire mining community share the concerns for the citizens of the mining region and we solicit assistance from everyone--miners, families, mine operators, and other state and federal officials--as to suggestions on how to prevent such accidents from happening in the future," McAteer said.
Copies of MSHA's Program Information Bulletin No. P95-24, "Blowouts of Impounded Water From Abandoned Underground Mines," may be obtained from the agency's Coal Mine Safety and Health office at (703) 235-1140.

The major sites were shut out of the FantasyFootballCrystalBall top five expert rankings in Week 9 as a group of smaller, highly respected sites ruled the day.
JunkYard Jake placed in the top five in four of six categories, including finishing atop the quarterback and tight end rankings, on its way to the Week 9 overall win. Razzball, RapidDraft, Fantasy Football Jungle and Fantasy Football Café completed the top five.
Running back was the most predictable position in Week 9, and Razzball won the category. The one miss was Arizona's Beanie Wells who was more a spectator than a player after missing practice during the week because of a knee problem. Aside from Wells, there were few big-time misses at running back.
The same cannot be said for wide receiver where some surprise performances skewed the final results and introduced some new names. If you used Fantasy Football Jungle or the aggregate rankings from FantasyFootballCrystalBall.com, you made the correct start/sit decision the majority of the time, but it was far from an easy week.
We also take a closer look at 10 of the most unexpected performances, good and bad, from Week 9. Click here to see which players we think are one-hit wonders, who should be banished to your bench and which Week 9 standouts are rising fantasy stars.

Fact Sheet for Required Training for First Time Elected and Appointed Officials
The new law applies to those officials elected for the first time to a municipal position for the first time after January 1, 2005. Beginning November 1, 2006 the law will apply to those officials appointed to a municipal position after July 1, 2006. If an elected official has previously been elected, he or she is exempt from the law.
- The new law requires training to include but not be limited to: Open Meetings Act, Open Records Act, municipal budget requirements, ethics, conflict of interest, and purchasing procedures.
- The new law requires that the training be held at a minimum of six regional locations with every effort to be made to accommodate long-distance learning.
- Failure to meet the training requirements for either appointed or elected officials a year after taking office will result in the person ceasing to hold office.
Who Does the Act Apply To?
Q: Who falls under the mandatory training requirements in SB 587, HB 2421 and HB 2557?
A: Each person elected for the first time as an officer of a municipality on or after January 1, 2005, or appointed for the first time on or after July 1, 2006 shall be required within one (1) year after taking the oath of office to attend an institute for municipal officials.
Q: So, if I was reelected after January 1, 2005 am I required to be trained?
A: No. It only applies to those elected for the first time.
Q: Does the Act only require training for governing body members elected after January 1, 2005?
A: No. The Act also applies to those elected or appointed for the first time as a municipal officer."
Q: Does this mean the Act applies to elected clerks and treasurers and any other municipal elected officials?
A: Yes, if they are elected for the first time after January 1, 2005.
Q: Is our appointed municipal attorney considered a "municipal officer?"
A: No. HB 2557 modifies the definition of those who are required to attend the institute for municipal officials to first time elected or appointed "officers" and not "positions." Adding "officer" to the statute, clarifies that those appointed to positions such as municipal attorneys, judges, accountants and others appointed to work for the municipality do not fall under the "appointed" position.
Q: What if a person was elected for the first time in a special election prior to January 1, 2005?
A: The Act would not apply since the election was not held after January 1, 2005.
Q: What if an individual was appointed after January 1, 2005 to fill a vacancy in an elected position?
A: HB 2421 was passed in 2006, which now applies to those "appointed for the first time" on or after July 1, 2006. If you are unsure, consult with your municipal attorney.
Q: Does the act apply to elections held under the Town Meeting Act?
A: Yes.
When Must the Training Occur?
Q: How soon must a person be trained who is elected for the first time after January 1, 2005?
A: Within one year after taking the oath of office.
Q: If there was a special election to fill a vacancy and the winner took the oath of office on July 10, 2008 when must the training occur?
A: Within one year after taking the oath of office - July 10, 2009.
What Kind of Training Does the Statute Require?
Q: Is specialized training required?
A: Yes.
Q: What are these specific areas of the law?
A: Municipal finance issues of budget and purchasing requirements, Open Meetings Act and conducting public meetings, Open Records Act, ethics and conflict of interest.
What are the Options for Training Dates and Places?
Q: Does OML qualify as a trainer?
A: Yes.
Q: Has OML scheduled training around the state?
A: Yes. Contact OML for the latest training dates and times or check OML's web site.
What About the OML June Institutes?
Q: Will the OML June Institutes held each year in Tulsa and Oklahoma City qualify?
A: Yes. OML June Institutes will qualify if the official attends those sessions that are required by the statute.
What are the Consequences if the Training is not Received?
Q: If a person elected for the first time after January 1, 2005 or appointed for the first time after July 1, 2006, does not complete training one year after taking the oath of office what happens?
A: The person shall cease to hold the position.

Selling with your heart, not your mind
The best salespeople appeal to the heart, not the mind.
There's a place for rational buying and its emphasis on functionality and benefits. But what about the emotional connection between a buyer and the product or service?
Think about McDonald's.
Does it actually taste better than its competitors? Maybe just the fries. But even then, think about the notion that McDonald's has good tasting fries: after all, the entire branding of the McDonald's logo is focused on its "golden arches." There's emotional value infused in how we conceive of french fries at McDonald's. Does McDonald's have bigger burgers or better milkshakes than anyone? Is McDonald's healthier?
The material differences between McDonald's and its competitors are marginal.
However, the emotional difference, with McDonald's marketing itself as family-friendly, and especially children friendly, is huge. The "Happy Meal" is an entire subset of the McDonald's Menu dedicated solely to children. The capacity of McDonald's to tap into that sense of family separates it from the Burger Kings and KFCs that are its competitors.
Now think about Coca Cola.
How different is Coca Cola from Pepsi Cola? Sure, while one is sweeter than the other, for the most part it can be agreed that the two products are very, very similar. So why does Coca Cola have more market share than its very similar counterpart?
Again, it comes down to a different degree of emotional attachment. There are just far more positive emotional associations with Coca Cola than Pepsi. It's rare to hear of a Pepsi fan, and even rarer an occasion to hear someone defend Pepsi in the way that Coke loyalists will. There's a reason for that: it's hard to define what Pepsi represents, whereas Coca Cola has positioned itself as a company with aspirations for happiness and kindness – something that anyone can relate to:
Of course, emotions aren't the only thing that ought to be considered when a sale is being conducted, but it's certainly an important factor.
Next time you're closing a sale, just remember that we make decisions as much – if not more – with our hearts as our brains.

Tehran (AFP) May 12, 2011
The level of industrial and oil pollution in the Caspian Sea has reached a "critical condition," an Iranian ecological expert warned, quoted by local media on Thursday.
"In terms of pollution, the Caspian Sea is in critical condition," Reza Pourgholam, head of the Caspian Sea Ecological Research Institute, told Fars news agency.
Exploitation of oil fields and traffic of large oil tankers dumps 122,350 tonnes of potentially cancerous oil pollutants into the world's largest inland sea annually, Pourgholam said.
The sea is also poisoned by large quantities of heavy metal just as dangerous as the hydrocarbons, he said, adding that "304 tonnes of cadmium and 34 tonnes of lead pollute the sea every year."
Pourgholam claimed 95 percent of the pollution originates from the sea's littoral states in the north and northwest -- Russia, Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan, home to a major offshore oil industry.
The Islamic republic is only responsible for five percent of the pollution, by dumping agricultural waste such as fertiliser and pesticides as well as detergents into the sea, Pourgholam said.
According to him, agricultural pollutants dumped into the sea in the Iranian province of Mazandaran, situated in the southeast of the Caspian Sea, fell from 10,000 tonnes to 4,000 annually over the past decade after Iran took measures to lower its pollution of the sea.
The treatment of the Caspian Sea's environmental problems is among the issues on which the bordering countries have yet to reach agreement.
Other issues still outstanding include the legal status of the sea and the delimitation of territorial waters after the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991.
The issue has been delaying the signing of an international convention on the Caspian Sea in preparation for years, to govern the cooperation of riparian states in all fields.

What you will need:
- 2 Tbsp loose organic hibiscus tea
- 1/2 gallon water
- 1/4 cup raw honey
- large glass pitcher
Step by Step:
- Boil ½ gallon of water.
- Place the loose hibiscus tea in the tea strainer in the glass bowl.
- Pour boiling water over the tea.
- Let it steep and cool down for about 20 minutes until it is warm *** This is key: You need the tea to be warm enough to dissolve the honey but not hot enough to kill the awesome probiotic qualities of the raw honey***
- Remove the tea strainer and pour the honey into the tea, stirring until dissolved.
- Pour into the pitcher and place in the fridge or add ice and enjoy!
- Optional: add a bit of rum for the adults 😉
I bet this tea would also work really well to make these gummies as well!

Date of Defense 2000-12-04 Availability unrestricted AbstractWater conservation and pollution concerns from nutrient runoff will very likely dictate precise irrigation regimes for nursery managers in Virginia. Maximum plant growth with minimum input of water and fertilizer is becoming increasingly important. Therefore, water use and growth of red and sugar maple (Acer rubrum L. 'Franksred' and Acer saccharum Marsh.) were studied during two years of pot-in-pot (P+P) production and during three years after transplanting to field soil. Three major experiments were completed. The first experiment studied the effect of frequent irrigation (three-times-a-day) versus standard once-a-day irrigation and found that frequent irrigation increased trunk diameter growth of sugar maples in the second production cycle and for red maples in both production cycles. Height growth of neither species was affected by frequent irrigation. A study of sap flow pattern indicated that late day water stress of red maples was partially alleviated by frequent irrigation. In the second experiment, red and sugar maples were transplanted to field soil after one (1-yr) or two (2-yr) years of P+P production. Irrigation frequency requirement decreased as the trees grew and depended on environmental conditions, size at planting, source of water (rainfall versus irrigation) and species. Height and trunk diameter of 1-yr red maple was equal to that of 2-yr trees after only one year. Height and trunk diameter differences between 1-yr and 2-yr sugar maple trees persisted three years after transplanting. In the third experiment water use of 1-yr and 2-yr red and sugar maple while in P+P production was investigated. Four models of daily water-use were developed. A simple model that is suitable for growers includes species, trunk cross-sectional area (BA) and air temperature (TA) observations. An environmental model was developed using the Penman-van Bavel estimate of evapotranspiration (ET). ET required modifications based on tree characteristics, air temperature, windspeed and relative humidity to be an effective predictor of water-use. A complex model was based on a sine-cosine function of day-of-the-year. This model fits water-use data well for each species and production cycle and includes BA, ET and TA. An alternate simpler model requires only day-of-the-year, TA and BA, offering growers a relatively simple and accurate model of water use. Files
