Here's my cocktail dress based on the Malissa pattern for the contest at BurdaStyle.
My inspiration came from the raglan cut and the fabrics I had in my stash.
I eliminated the sleeves and collar and really kept it simple. I cut out the front and back panels, raised both and sewed them together at the shoulders. I used the all in one facing how to (very helpful!). I chose a fabric that drapes well and added a weaved ribbon at the neckline and under the bust. It can be worn with the weaved ribbon like a belt at the waist line or without it.
Materials: sheer black veil with velvet flowers surrounded by silver glitter lined with smooth white lycra (hemmed with lace) and a weave for the belt.
I still have to take a marco photo of the finish at the neckline. I have hand sewn the weaved ribbon at the neckline to hide the white lining from showing. The armholes are finished with a topstitch that keeps the lining in place.
I really like the lace hem on the lining, it shows through the sheer overlay fabric while sitting down.
I have used the lace or blindstitch attachment foot with a flatlock stitch on the server to overcast the lycra lining and attach the lace in one step.
The lace is placed rights sides facing over the lycra. The blade cuts the edge off lycra, the raw edge is overcast and the needle stitches just barely through the edge of the lace.
Then turn the lace and pull slightly, the vertical bars from the flatlock will show on the eright side, a nice flat stitch is on the backside.
Thank you for the Malissa pattern. I will sew it again and now my head is filled with many alteration ideas for it: as a top, as a beach dress, with a crochet neckline like Alison's dresses, with a gather instead of pleats, with really short sleeves, oh the possibilities!
Can't wait to see what everyone else creates!
Good luck!
Did I mention these awesome videos on sewing machine feet?
On the left side in the Main Menu there is alike Free sewing videos, it takes you to a list of videos on so many sewing machine feet, I didn't even know they exist.
How many feet do you have? 😛

Want a challenge? Want some fun? Want to learn something new? Calling all community crafters who would love to spend a fun filled day laughing, working for a great cause and meeting new friends and learning new skills.
The Snyder Pioneers 4-H group will host a county-wide 4-H community project, "Judy's Hats", from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, October 26, at the Morgan County Event Center.
Judy Barnhart, loyal friend of 4-H, recently passed away from cancer. A need she identified is the shortage of hats that are comfortable for patients to wear who have lost hair.
"Our goal is to provide a hat to every patient one who needs and wants one in honor of Judy," explained Cyndi Hofmeister, leader of the Snyder Pioneers.
At the "Judy's Hats" workshop, participants will be knitting, crocheting, or sewing a variety of hats that will be donated to various local agencies to distribute to area residents who need them.
Bring a sack lunch, water bottle for you, and whatever supplies you may have around the house – skeins of yarn, knitting and/or crochet hooks, polar fleece, a spool of thread, scissors, portable sewing machine and bobbins if you have them.
Whether or not you have crocheted, knitted, or sewed a simple seam, everyone is invited to the event where you will gain great experience, while having fun. According to Hofmeister, you do not have to be a member of 4-H to participate.
Snyder Pioneers challenges every other Morgan County 4H Club to send at least three members and adults with their supplies. All ages of volunteer crafters are welcome, if you belong to 4H or not.
Hand-made hats already created and commercially made hats are welcome. A donation box will be in place to collect any commercially made hats such as baseball caps, fedoras, or scarves brought to the Event Center that day. Each hat will be packaged and an inspirational verse especially selected by Judy will be enclosed.
Awards will be given for the most hats created by each club, most hats created by an individual, and most hats donated.
For those who can not participate but wish to donate, Hofmeister explained that snacks such as fruit, cookies, granola bars or bottled water are appreciated.
Please register as a teacher, group leader, crafter, as a supplies donor for this event by contacting Hofmeister at (970)768-5669.
"We are asking people to wear pink if possible, which was one of Judy's favorite colors," said Hofmeister.
Additional information can be accessed through the Morgan County Extension Office at (970)542-3540 and ask to speak to Jamie.
Currently we are looking for supplies and people willing to bring portable sewing machines and assist constructing the hats.
Help us meet the goal of supplying comfortable hats for all county residents who need them!!
Snyder 4-H group takes on "Judy's Hats" project
Want a challenge? Want some fun? Want to learn something new? Calling all community crafters who would love to spend a fun filled day laughing, working for a great cause and meeting new friends and learning new skills.

Find a place to live
Before beginning your search, it is important to decide on the type of housing your looking for. Your financial resources, the length of your stay, and the nature of your program will shape that decision. University housing through the CROUS, private student residences, renting/sharing on the private housing market, online platforms for housing exchange: there are various options available.
The cost of housing varies widely, but international students (staying for more than 6 months in France), like French students, are eligible for housing assistance.
It is reassuring to make housing arrangements before leaving for France. This is possible if you are able to secure a room in a university residence managed by CROUS, the regional student-service agency (although spaces in CROUS buildings are largely reserved for recipients of French government scholarships and students participating in exchange programs) or if you plan to attend an institution that maintains its own student residences.
Otherwise searching for housing from outside the country can be difficult. You won't be able to visit properties and make fully informed decisions. It may also be difficult, from a distance, to persuade a property owner to let you sign a rental contract or convince him that you have someone who will guarantee payment of your rent.
For these reasons, many international students choose to find temporary housing for their first few weeks in France. They use that time to look for a more permanent arrangement.
Below you will find a set of useful (if diverse) links, organized by city. Use them to learn more about the housing market in the area in which you plan to study.
Read our "Adresses Logement (Housing addresses)" directory (downloadable below) to find housing offers sorted depending of your stay location and duration, price and other criteria.There are also accommodation search engines for international students - which are very helful, such as: https://housinganywhere.com

Barclays CEO job may be tough sellAugust 6, 2012: 10:59 AM ET
Bob Diamond's downfall was swift, but Barclays' board of directors will be forced to take its time choosing his replacement.
The first problem, of course, is that of the missing chairman. Before the board of Barclays (BCS) can choose a new chief executive, the bank's interim chairman, Marcus Agius, said the first priority will be to find his replacement. Agius resigned his post just before CEO Diamond issued his resignation. Following Diamond's exodus, Agius was forced to stick around for awhile.
A spokesperson for Barclays declined to comment further on the CEO search.
Securing a chairman is expected to take at least another month, which could push back an announcement of a new CEO until late October at the earliest, according to several analysts who follow Barclays. A source close to the search process confirmed that the hunt for a CEO replacement is indeed in the very early stages.
"I'm quite sure we won't have two new people in position before Christmas," said Ian Gordon, a banking analyst at Investec.
Related: The death of Bob Diamond's dream for Barclays
Once a chairman is found, Barclays' board will have to land an executive with the right mix of experience to appeal to both shareholders and U.K. regulators. The board of directors must then convince that person to take the job.
"Who on earth would want this job?" asked Chris Wheeler, a banking analyst with Mediabanca. "It's unlikely that a new CEO would get assurances from the board that he could do what he wanted with the company."
Former JPMorgan (JPM) executive Bill Winters is considered to be at the top of Barclays' wish list. Few expect the bank to chose an internal candidate, because any individual would be tainted at the outset by the Libor scandal.
British regulators are said to like Winters because he served on the commission to help draft laws that would unwind U.K. banks in the event of another financial crisis. Winters currently runs the asset management fund Renshaw Bay, which invests money for Jacob Rothschild and South African billionaire Johann Rupert. Winters did not return calls for comment.
Still, there's a question of whether Barclays' shareholders and regulators will push to have a British native lead the bank. That could rule out Winters, who has dual U.S.-U.K. citizenship. Diamond was often lambasted by the British press for being a brash American.
Don't expect much clarity on the future of Barclays before a chief executive is chosen, analysts said. It's highly unlikely that the bank would undertake any major strategic changes without a CEO at the helm.
A Barclays breakup is seen as increasingly unlikely as well. One senior financial industry investment banker said he and his team have been wrestling with what pieces Barclays could sell, but he said it's hard to find a way for Barclays to hold sufficient capital without a retail banking arm. Should Barclays consider selling smaller divisions, both the bank's operations in Africa and its credit card division would be the assets most coveted by rival banks, the banker said.
Related: 'For you ... anything.' Barclays Libor emails paint ugly picture
"It's more likely that Barclays could endure death by 1000 cuts. They will have more and more constraints on what they do from U.K. regulators," said Investec's Gordon.
For now, even after the $453 million payout to regulators for its role in Libor manipulation, Barclays managed to show investors robust profits for the first half of the year. Barclays' stock is down 10% in 2012 but investors are taking some solace from these profits.
"As an investment proposition [the absence of a CEO] doesn't unduly concern me," said Gordon. "All divisions have the same management as beforehand, and unless you believe a radical shift at Barclays is required, this shouldn't be of paramount concern to investors."

I looked in my refrigerator yesterday and freaked out over all the container-filled left over foods. Usually that's a good thing right? Most people probably wouldn't get stressed out over left overs. In fact, most people probably think it's a good thing to have left overs. But I have a fear of left over foods. It all started when I moved away for Pharmacy school. My parents would come visit me in San Francisco and would stock my refrigerator with good ol' Mom's home cooking. It was truly a great and generous thing that they did. I think they thought I was starving and/or didn't have enough time to cook for my own. Little did they know that I gained a lot of weight partying, and eating. Anyhow, after they went back home, I would freak out about all the foods that I would have to eat before it spoiled. I grew tired of left overs after 3-4 days of straight left overs. It wasn't even an enjoyment. It was just a process of shoveling food down my mouth for lunch and dinner. And trust me, I LOOOOOOOOVE my parents' cooking! I also hate wasting food period. Wow. I just went off on a tangent.
I had a lot of cilantro from over the weekend that I didn't know what to do with. I also had a lot of limes, tomatoes, and avocados hanging out on my kitchen counter waiting to be hacked up for my weekly sandwich wraps for work. But the avocados and tomatoes were getting just a little ripe, and I knew I wouldn't eat the tomatoes because I hate mushy tomatoes. It's true. The texture is just gross. Luckily, I found half of a red onion in a tupperware container in the refrigerator, and decided to make guacamole… the perfect way to NOT waste these ingredients!
Just a side note, do you remember how expensive avocados were about a decade ago or more? I was just reminiscing recently how expensive some fruit and vegetable items were and how difficult they were to find at times. I used to beg my parents to spend some money to buy me two or three avocados for $4 per avocado just so that I could make guacamole. I'd maybe get to taste half an avocado once or twice a year. But now that the prices have come down significantly, I can make guacamole any time and any day of the year. There's always an abundance of avocados no matter what grocery store you shop at now. It's absolutely wonderful and convenient.
So getting back to my original post, I love my guacamole extra lime-y. And spicy, and chunky, and cilantro-y. It's the only way to eat guacamole. No garlic, no cumin. Just love.
Spicy, lime-y, cilantro-y, and chunky guacamole
4 avocados
2 roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
1/2 red onion, minced or finely diced (about 1/2 cup)
1/3 cup cilantro, chopped
3 limes, juiced
2 jalapenos, minced (remove the seeds and pith if you don't like it spicy)
1 teaspoon salt
Cut avocados in half, and remove seed. Scoop out avacado from the peel, put in a mixing bowl.
Using a fork or potato masher, mash the avocado, while leaving it chunky. Add the chopped red onion, cilantro, tomato, and salt. Mix together. Next add half of the lime juice, mix well, and adjust to your likings. I like a really lime-y guacamole, so three limes is perfect.
Chili peppers vary individually in their hotness, even with the seeds and pith removed. So, start with a half of one chili pepper and add to the guacamole to your desired degree of hotness.
Enjoy immediately with your favorite tortilla chips. I cut and baked my organic corn tortillas at 400 degrees in a small toaster oven for a few minutes, and they turned out perfectly.
Makes 4 to 6 servings.

Texas wildlife officials have closed one of the state's five fish hatcheries because of lack of water from the ongoing drought.
Texas Parks and Wildlife Department fish hatcheries director Todd Engeling said Thursday in a news release that two lakes that feed Dundee State Fish Hatchery southwest of Wichita Falls have not gotten the good rains enjoyed recently in other parts of the state.
The release says Lake Kemp is 1 foot above the level at which the hatchery loses authorization to use water from the lake.
The latest news from around North Texas.
The 97 ponds at Dundee, where striped bass and hybrid striped bass are primarily produced, represent 34 percent of Texas' available capacity for freshwater fish production.
Production of the fish will shift to other facilities.
Wichita Falls is about 140 northwest of Dallas.

It is surprising how the recent announcement of the Obama administration to arm Syrian rebels (and potentially provide air support) has met with little or no comment from the press, although most Americans want to stay out of Syrian civil war. When George Bush was president, according to the press, finding that Saddam Hussein had used chemical weapons was not sufficient to justify involvement in removing him from office (since nobody ever found "weapons of mass destruction." Now, the Obama administration is claiming there is evidence that the chemical weapon sarin had been used on Syrian rebels, although no specifics have been given by the White House.
The problem with supporting Arab rebels is that regimes that replace more "moderate" bad dictators tend to consist of more radical Islamic governments. I see this tendency as potentially resulting in the eventual fulfillment of end times prophecy of Revelation 20:9, when the enemies of Jerusalem surround the city in preparation to attempt to destroy it. To find out the result of the conflict, please read Revelation chapter 20.

Devils visit Kings in matchup of last-place teams
Six years after meeting in the Stanley Cup Finals, the last-place teams in both conferences will get together Thursday night when the Los Angeles Kings host the New Jersey Devils at Staples Center.
The Kings (10-17-1) have already fired John Stevens as head coach and replaced him with Willie Desjardins, but he hasn't turned things around either. Stevens was let go on Nov. 4 after the Kings went 4-8-1 to start the season. They've gone 6-9-0 under Desjardins and have yet to win three in a row under either coach.
The Devils (9-12-5) are 0-3-3 over the past six games to fall to the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings.
New Jersey coach John Hynes resorted to benching leading scorer Taylor Hall for nearly eight minutes late in the second period of a 5-1 loss to the visiting Tampa Bay Lightning on Monday night after Hall's turnover in his own zone led to the fourth goal by the Lightning.
"Sometimes, you've got to take your lumps and try and come back and play better," Hall told reporters afterward.
Hynes wouldn't commit to a starting goalie against the Kings.
Keith Kinkaid allowed four goals on 20 shots against Tampa Bay before he was replaced by Cory Schneider to start the third period.
Kincaid is still second in the NHL with three shutouts, but has allowed four goals in each of his past five outings for an .872 save percentage. He posted his only shutout last season against the Kings at Staples Center on March 17.
Schneider, who the Kings got to know well when he played for the Vancouver Canucks from 2008-13, is 0-5-0 in five starts this season with a 4.19 goals-against average and .862 save percentage.
The Devils are expected to have winger Jesper Bratt back in the lineup after he missed the Tampa Bay game with an illness. Bratt, who missed the first 13 games with a broken jaw, has nine points (two goals, seven assists) in 12 games.
New Jersey entered Wednesday ninth in the NHL with an 82 percent penalty-kill rate, and the Devils will be up against a Los Angeles team that's 4-for-37 on the power play over its past 14 games.
The Kings have struggled on the penalty kill during that stretch as well, owning a 65.1 percent success rate. They didn't allow any goals during 5-on-5 play against the visiting Arizona Coyotes on Tuesday, but gave up a power-play goal and a short-handed one in the 2-1 loss.
"That's not the area that's hurting us," Desjardins said of 5-on-5 play. "It's the special teams that are hurting us."
The Kings showed some life in the final minutes against the Coyotes, getting a goal from defenseman Alec Martinez to spoil the shutout, but it was too little too late as they dropped to 0-13-0 this season when trailing at the start of the second period.
"We just got to play a lot more minutes like we did the last five to seven minutes (against Arizona)," Kings leading scorer Anze Kopitar said. "You can tell there was desperation there. You know you've just got to play like that for 60 minutes."

An undated publicity photo of actor Efrem Zimbalist Jr.
Handsome, debonair and blessed with a distinguished voice that reflected his real-life prep school upbringing, Efrem Zimbalist Jr. was a prolific actor whose greatest fame came as a brilliant G-man in the classic series, "The F.B.I."
The actor died on Friday, May 2, 2014, at the age of 95.
By CBSNews.com senior producer David Morgan; The Associated Press contributed to this report
Credit: CBS News
Born in New York City on Nov. 30, 1918, Efrem Zimbalist Jr.'s father was a violin virtuoso, his mother an acclaimed opera singer. He studied violin himself before turning his interest to the theater.
After serving in World War II, he made his stage debut in "The Rugged Path," starring Spencer Tracy, and appeared in other plays and a soap opera before being cast in minor film roles, including "House of Strangers" (1949), with Edward G. Robinson and Richard Conte (left).

When "77 Sunset Strip" ended in 1964, Zimbalist became an even bigger star playing the empathetic, methodical G-Man Lewis Erskine in "The F.B.I."
At the end of each episode, after Zimbalist and his fellow G-men had captured that week's mobsters, subversives, bank robbers or spies, the series would post real photos from the FBI's most-wanted list. Some of them led to arrests, which helped give the show the complete seal of approval of the agency's real-life director, J. Edgar Hoover.
"The F.B.I." aired until 1974.

million cubic meters
of fresh water per day are produced by desalination plants all over the world. According to the International Desalination Association (IDA) more than 300 million people rely on this water.
Seawater desalination, water reuse and other modern processes use membrane filtration water treatment technologies. They have proven to be highly reliable and are more frequently being implemented commercially. Economically speaking, the task is to find the right balance in order to obtain longer filtration system cleaning cycles all while avoiding irreversible membrane blockages or damages.
Product safety and reliability are the two main goals in membrane filtration water treatment operations. Mechanical protection is monitored mainly by pressure and differential pressure. Flow is used as the basic process parameter. Scaling and fouling processes can be reduced by accurate quality monitoring at the inlet.
Precise pressure measurement
Quality monitoring at the inlet
Pressure measurement in the inlet area is important to confirm that the filtration is running well and to promptly detect pressure peaks to avoid filter damage. Pressure devices in this application must deliver long-term, reliable measurement with low drifts. Due to probable pressure peaks, a high pressure overload resistance is required. A reduced spare part requirement within the installed base is also beneficial because of the high number of pressure measurement points in the process.
Several parameters are used to control inlet quality: pH, turbidity, chlorine, SAC, conductivity and ORP measurement. The typical requirements for quality inlet measurements are long-term reliability, low maintenance, easy calibration and documentation of the sensors. Our individually customizable analysis panels support easy commissioning and operation, and are preferably installed in a bypass. And our digital Memosens sensor technology allows a convenient calibration and documentation.
Endress+Hauser simplifies even complicated applications with various measuring parameters thanks to our broad portfolio and our innovative technologies like Memosense that enables you to take the first step towards a digital future. This way we can not only help you ensure the availability and quality of your membrane filtration water treatment but also help you to reduce maintenance and calibration costs.

The mothers of two Berkeley hikers held in Iran on espionage charges say they're starting a hunger strike.
Last week, Iranian authorities delayed the trial of Shane Bauer and Josh Fattal without explanation.
Bauer's mother, Cindy Hickey of Pine City, Minn., tells The Associated Press that she and Fattal's mother believe their sons are fasting. So the mothers plan to start fasting in solidarity Thursday.
Hickey says they'll fast as long as they can. Others, including Bauer's fiancèe, Sarah Shourd, will join the hunger strike Saturday.
Shourd, Bauer and Fattal were arrested along the Iraq-Iran border in July 2009. Shourd was allowed to return to the U.S. last year on bail.
The three say they were hiking in Iraq's northern Kurdish region and that any crossing into Iran was inadvertent.

Detailed Tryout Roster and Schedule (PDF)
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (updated Feb. 22, 2013) – USA Volleyball has a projected record 247 athletes signed up to participate in open tryouts for the U.S. Women's National Team, U.S. Women's National A2 Program and U.S. Women's Junior National Team. The tryouts will take place Feb. 22-24, 2013, in Sports Center II at the U.S. Olympic Training Center (USOTC) in Colorado Springs, Colo.
Among the 247 tryout participants representing 90 different colleges are 60 outside hitters, 57 middle blockers, 56 liberos, 49 setters and 25 opposites. The 2012 U.S. Women's National Team Open Tryouts attracted a then-record 207 participants.
Although seating is very limited in Sports Center II, the tryouts are open and free to the public.
The tryout begins on Feb. 22 with waves going from 2-3:50 p.m. MT, 4-5:50 p.m. MT and 6:10-8 p.m. MT. Each athlete has been assigned to participate in one wave on Friday. On Feb. 23, athletes will participate in a morning session and an afternoon wave starting at 8 a.m. MT and ending at 8 p.m. MT. Athlete groups for Feb. 23 will be assigned at the end of the previous night. The tryout concludes on Feb. 24 with tournament play broken up into two sessions from 7:30-9:10 a.m. and 9:20-11 a.m. Each participant will compete in one tournament wave to be determined the night of Feb. 23.
Throughout the tryout process, USA Volleyball will be identifying prospective athletes for the following three different programs: first and foremost the U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team Program; those not selected to the National Team may also be considered for an invitation to the U.S. Women's National Volleyball Senior A2 Team; and/or U.S. Women's Junior National Volleyball Team program and its various programs.
The U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team Program is available to athletes who have concluded their college eligibility and who wish to be invited to be a member of the U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team on a full-time basis. This program could begin as early as the spring of 2013, or when an athlete's scholastic or professional club season has concluded. Also considered for training with this group will be athletes who have remaining collegiate eligibility and their participation beginning in mid-May or when their scholastic calendar ends for 2013.
The U.S. Women's National Volleyball Senior A2 program is available to athletes with collegiate eligibility remaining for the 2013 season. This program is scheduled to take place in Dallas from June 25 to July 4. A projected 48 athletes will be invited to participate in the program, which will include training and competing at the USA Volleyball Girls' Junior National Championships (GJNC) from July 1-4. These athletes may also be invited to participate with the U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team.
The U.S. Women's Junior Program is available for athletes born in either 1994 or 1995. The U.S. Women's Junior National Volleyball Team will compete in the FIVB Volleyball Women's Junior World Championship June 21-30 at Brno, Czech Republic. In addition the U.S. Women's Junior A1 National Training Team will compete I the USA Volleyball High Performance Championships and the U.S. Women's Junior A1 International Training Team will compete in the European Global Challenge in Pula, Croatia. High school age athletes eligible for the U.S. Women's Junior Program can also attend USA Volleyball High Performance tryouts around the country. For the complete tryout schedule, click here.

|Oracle® Database Application Developer's Guide - Fundamentals
10g Release 1 (10.1)
Part Number B10795-01
|View PDF
Dynamic SQL is a programming technique that enables you to build SQL statements dynamically at runtime. You can create more general purpose, flexible applications by using dynamic SQL because the full text of a SQL statement may be unknown at compilation. For example, dynamic SQL lets you create a procedure that operates on a table whose name is not known until runtime.
Oracle Database includes two ways to implement dynamic SQL in a PL/SQL application:
DBMS_SQL package.
This chapter covers the following topics:
You can find details about the
DBMS_SQL package in the PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference.
Dynamic SQL enables you to write programs that reference SQL statements whose full text is not known until runtime. Before discussing dynamic SQL in detail, a clear definition of static SQL may provide a good starting point for understanding dynamic SQL. Static SQL statements do not change from execution to execution. The full text of static SQL statements are known at compilation, which provides the following benefits:
Because of these advantages, you should use dynamic SQL only if you cannot use static SQL to accomplish your goals, or if using static SQL is cumbersome compared to dynamic SQL. However, static SQL has limitations that can be overcome with dynamic SQL. You may not always know the full text of the SQL statements that must be executed in a PL/SQL procedure. Your program may accept user input that defines the SQL statements to execute, or your program may need to complete some processing work to determine the correct course of action. In such cases, you should use dynamic SQL.
For example, a reporting application in a data warehouse environment might not know the exact table name until runtime. These tables might be named according to the starting month and year of the quarter, for example
INV_01_1998, and so on. You can use dynamic SQL in your reporting application to specify the table name at runtime.
You might also want to run a complex query with a user-selectable sort order. Instead of coding the query twice, with different
ORDER BY clauses, you can construct the query dynamically to include a specified
ORDER BY clause.
Dynamic SQL programs can handle changes in data definitions, without the need to recompile. This makes dynamic SQL much more flexible than static SQL. Dynamic SQL lets you write reusable code because the SQL can be easily adapted for different environments.
Dynamic SQL also lets you execute data definition language (DDL) statements and other SQL statements that are not supported in purely static SQL programs.
You should use dynamic SQL in cases where static SQL does not support the operation you want to perform, or in cases where you do not know the exact SQL statements that must be executed by a PL/SQL procedure. These SQL statements may depend on user input, or they may depend on processing work done by the program. The following sections describe typical situations where you should use dynamic SQL and typical problems that can be solved by using dynamic SQL
In PL/SQL, you can only execute the following types of statements using dynamic SQL, rather than static SQL:
GRANT, and
SESSION and
|See Also:
Oracle Database SQL Reference for information about DDL and SCL statements
Also, you can only use the
TABLE clause in the
SELECT statement through dynamic SQL. For example, the following PL/SQL block contains a
SELECT statement that uses the
TABLE clause and native dynamic SQL:
CREATE TYPE t_emp AS OBJECT (id NUMBER, name VARCHAR2(20)) / CREATE TYPE t_emplist AS TABLE OF t_emp / CREATE TABLE dept_new (id NUMBER, emps t_emplist) NESTED TABLE emps STORE AS emp_table; INSERT INTO dept_new VALUES ( 10, t_emplist( t_emp(1, 'SCOTT'), t_emp(2, 'BRUCE'))); DECLARE deptid NUMBER; ename VARCHAR2(20); BEGIN EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT d.id, e.name FROM dept_new d, TABLE(d.emps) e -- not allowed in static SQL -- in PL/SQL WHERE e.id = 1' INTO deptid, ename; END; /
You can use dynamic SQL to create applications that execute dynamic queries, whose full text is not known until runtime. Many types of applications need to use dynamic queries, including:
For examples, see "Querying Using Dynamic SQL: Example", and see the query examples in "A Dynamic SQL Scenario Using Native Dynamic SQL".
Many types of applications must interact with data that is generated periodically. For example, you might know the tables definitions at compile time, but not the names of the tables.
Dynamic SQL can solve this problem, because it lets you wait until runtime to specify the table names. For example, in the sample data warehouse application discussed in "What Is Dynamic SQL?", new tables are generated every quarter, and these tables always have the same definition. You might let a user specify the name of the table at runtime with a dynamic SQL query similar to the following:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE query_invoice( month VARCHAR2, year VARCHAR2) IS TYPE cur_typ IS REF CURSOR; c cur_typ; query_str VARCHAR2(200); inv_num NUMBER; inv_cust VARCHAR2(20); inv_amt NUMBER; BEGIN query_str := 'SELECT num, cust, amt FROM inv_' || month ||'_'|| year || ' WHERE invnum = :id'; OPEN c FOR query_str USING inv_num; LOOP FETCH c INTO inv_num, inv_cust, inv_amt; EXIT WHEN c%NOTFOUND; -- process row here END LOOP; CLOSE c; END; /
You can use dynamic SQL to build a SQL statement in a way that optimizes the execution by concatenating the hints into a SQL statement dynamically. This lets you change the hints based on your current database statistics, without requiring recompilation.
For example, the following procedure uses a variable called
a_hint to allow users to pass a hint option to the
SELECT statement:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE query_emp (a_hint VARCHAR2) AS TYPE cur_typ IS REF CURSOR; c cur_typ; BEGIN OPEN c FOR 'SELECT ' || a_hint || ' empno, ename, sal, job FROM emp WHERE empno = 7566'; -- process END; /
In this example, the user can pass any of the following values for
a_hint = '/*+ ALL_ROWS */'
a_hint = '/*+ FIRST_ROWS */'
a_hint = '/*+ CHOOSE */'
|See Also:
Oracle Database Performance Tuning Guide for more information about using hints
You can use the
IMMEDIATE statement to execute anonymous PL/SQL blocks. You can add flexibility by constructing the block contents at runtime.
For example, suppose you want to write an application that takes an event number and dispatches to a handler for the event. The name of the handler is in the form
EVENT_HANDLER_event_num, where event_num is the number of the event. One approach is to implement the dispatcher as a switch statement, where the code handles each event by making a static call to its appropriate handler. This code is not very extensible because the dispatcher code must be updated whenever a handler for a new event is added.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE event_handler_1(param number) AS BEGIN -- process event RETURN; END; / CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE event_handler_2(param number) AS BEGIN -- process event RETURN; END; / CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE event_handler_3(param number) AS BEGIN -- process event RETURN; END; / CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE event_dispatcher (event number, param number) IS BEGIN IF (event = 1) THEN EVENT_HANDLER_1(param); ELSIF (event = 2) THEN EVENT_HANDLER_2(param); ELSIF (event = 3) THEN EVENT_HANDLER_3(param); END IF; END; /
Using native dynamic SQL, you can write a smaller, more flexible event dispatcher similar to the following:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE event_dispatcher (event NUMBER, param NUMBER) IS BEGIN EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'BEGIN EVENT_HANDLER_' || to_char(event) || '(:1); END;' USING param; END; /
By using the invoker's rights feature with dynamic SQL, you can build applications that issue dynamic SQL statements under the privileges and schema of the invoker. These two features--invoker's rights and dynamic SQL--enable you to build reusable application subcomponents that can operate on and access the invoker's data and modules.

PL/SQL User's Guide and Reference for information about using invoker's rights and native dynamic SQL
This scenario shows you how to perform the following operations using native dynamic SQL:
The database in this scenario is a company's human resources database (named
hr) with the following data model:
A master table named
offices contains the list of all company locations. The
offices table has the following definition:
Column Name Null? Type LOCATION NOT_NULL VARCHAR2(200)
emp_location tables contain the employee information, where location is the name of city where the office is located. For example, a table named
emp_houston contains employee information for the company's Houston office, while a table named
emp_boston contains employee information for the company's Boston office.
emp_location table has the following definition:
Column Name Null? Type EMPNO NOT_NULL NUMBER(4) ENAME NOT_NULL VARCHAR2(10) JOB NOT_NULL VARCHAR2(9) SAL NOT_NULL NUMBER(7,2) DEPTNO NOT_NULL NUMBER(2)
The following sections describe various native dynamic SQL operations that can be performed on the data in the
hr database.
The following native dynamic SQL procedure gives a raise to all employees with a particular job title:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE salary_raise (raise_percent NUMBER, job VARCHAR2) IS TYPE loc_array_type IS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(40) INDEX BY binary_integer; dml_str VARCHAR2 (200); loc_array loc_array_type; BEGIN -- bulk fetch the list of office locations SELECT location BULK COLLECT INTO loc_array FROM offices; -- for each location, give a raise to employees with the given 'job' FOR i IN loc_array.first..loc_array.last LOOP dml_str := 'UPDATE emp_' || loc_array(i) || ' SET sal = sal * (1+(:raise_percent/100))' || ' WHERE job = :job_title'; EXECUTE IMMEDIATE dml_str USING raise_percent, job; END LOOP; END; / SHOW ERRORS;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE statement can perform DDL operations. For example, the following procedure adds an office location:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE add_location (loc VARCHAR2) IS BEGIN -- insert new location in master table INSERT INTO offices VALUES (loc); -- create an employee information table EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE TABLE ' || 'emp_' || loc || '( empno NUMBER(4) NOT NULL, ename VARCHAR2(10), job VARCHAR2(9), sal NUMBER(7,2), deptno NUMBER(2) )'; END; / SHOW ERRORS;
The following procedure deletes an office location:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE drop_location (loc VARCHAR2) IS BEGIN -- delete the employee table for location 'loc' EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'DROP TABLE ' || 'emp_' || loc; -- remove location from master table DELETE FROM offices WHERE location = loc; END; / SHOW ERRORS;
IMMEDIATE statement can perform dynamic single-row queries. You can specify bind variables in the
USING clause and fetch the resulting row into the target specified in the
INTO clause of the statement.
The following function retrieves the number of employees at a particular location performing a specified job:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION get_num_of_employees (loc VARCHAR2, job VARCHAR2) RETURN NUMBER IS query_str VARCHAR2(1000); num_of_employees NUMBER; BEGIN query_str := 'SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ' || ' emp_' || loc || ' WHERE job = :job_title'; EXECUTE IMMEDIATE query_str INTO num_of_employees USING job; RETURN num_of_employees; END; / SHOW ERRORS;
FETCH, and
CLOSE statements can perform dynamic multiple-row queries. For example, the following procedure lists all of the employees with a particular job at a specified location:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE list_employees(loc VARCHAR2, job VARCHAR2) IS TYPE cur_typ IS REF CURSOR; c cur_typ; query_str VARCHAR2(1000); emp_name VARCHAR2(20); emp_num NUMBER; BEGIN query_str := 'SELECT ename, empno FROM emp_' || loc || ' WHERE job = :job_title'; -- find employees who perform the specified job OPEN c FOR query_str USING job; LOOP FETCH c INTO emp_name, emp_num; EXIT WHEN c%NOTFOUND; -- process row here END LOOP; CLOSE c; END; / SHOW ERRORS;
Oracle Database provides two methods for using dynamic SQL within PL/SQL: native dynamic SQL and the
DBMS_SQL package. Native dynamic SQL lets you place dynamic SQL statements directly into PL/SQL code. These dynamic statements include DML statements (including queries), PL/SQL anonymous blocks, DDL statements, transaction control statements, and session control statements.
To process most native dynamic SQL statements, you use the
IMMEDIATE statement. To process a multi-row query (
SELECT statement), you use
FETCH, and
CLOSE statements.
To use native dynamic SQL, the
DBMS_SQL package is a PL/SQL library that offers an API to execute SQL statements dynamically. The
DBMS_SQL package has procedures to open a cursor, parse a cursor, supply binds, and so on. Programs that use the
DBMS_SQL package make calls to this package to perform dynamic SQL operations.
The following sections provide detailed information about the advantages of both methods.
|See Also:
Native dynamic SQL provides the following advantages over the
DBMS_SQL package:
Because native dynamic SQL is integrated with SQL, you can use it in the same way that you use static SQL within PL/SQL code. Native dynamic SQL code is typically more compact and readable than equivalent code that uses the
DBMS_SQL package.
With the
DBMS_SQL package you must call many procedures and functions in a strict sequence, making even simple operations require a lot of code. You can avoid this complexity by using native dynamic SQL instead.
Table 6-1 illustrates the difference in the amount of code required to perform the same operation using the
DBMS_SQL package and native dynamic SQL.
|DBMS_SQL Package
|Native Dynamic SQL
CREATE PROCEDURE insert_into_table ( table_name VARCHAR2, deptnumber NUMBER, deptname VARCHAR2, location VARCHAR2) IS cur_hdl INTEGER; stmt_str VARCHAR2(200); rows_processed BINARY_INTEGER; BEGIN stmt_str := 'INSERT INTO ' || table_name || ' VALUES (:deptno, :dname, :loc)'; -- open cursor cur_hdl := dbms_sql.open_cursor; -- parse cursor dbms_sql.parse(cur_hdl, stmt_str, dbms_sql.native); -- supply binds dbms_sql.bind_variable (cur_hdl, ':deptno', deptnumber); dbms_sql.bind_variable (cur_hdl, ':dname', deptname); dbms_sql.bind_variable (cur_hdl, ':loc', location); -- execute cursor rows_processed := dbms_sql.execute(cur_hdl); -- close cursor dbms_sql.close_cursor(cur_hdl); END; / SHOW ERRORS;
CREATE PROCEDURE insert_into_table ( table_name VARCHAR2, deptnumber NUMBER, deptname VARCHAR2, location VARCHAR2) IS stmt_str VARCHAR2(200); BEGIN stmt_str := 'INSERT INTO ' || table_name || ' values (:deptno, :dname, :loc)'; EXECUTE IMMEDIATE stmt_str USING deptnumber, deptname, location; END; / SHOW ERRORS;
Native dynamic SQL in PL/SQL performs comparably to the performance of static SQL, because the PL/SQL interpreter has built-in support for it. Programs that use native dynamic SQL are much faster than programs that use the
DBMS_SQL package. Typically, native dynamic SQL statements perform 1.5 to 3 times better than equivalent
DBMS_SQL calls. (Your performance gains may vary depending on your application.)
Native dynamic SQL bundles the statement preparation, binding, and execution steps into a single operation, which minimizes the data copying and procedure call overhead and improves performance.
DBMS_SQL package is based on a procedural API and incurs high procedure call and data copy overhead. Each time you bind a variable, the
DBMS_SQL package copies the PL/SQL bind variable into its space for use during execution. Each time you execute a fetch, the data is copied into the space managed by the
DBMS_SQL package and then the fetched data is copied, one column at a time, into the appropriate PL/SQL variables, resulting in substantial overhead.
When using either native dynamic SQL or the
DBMS_SQL package, you can improve performance by using bind variables, because bind variables allow Oracle Database to share a single cursor for multiple SQL statements.
For example, the following native dynamic SQL code does not use bind variables:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE del_dept ( my_deptno dept.deptno%TYPE) IS BEGIN EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'DELETE FROM dept WHERE deptno = ' || to_char (my_deptno); END; / SHOW ERRORS;
For each distinct
my_deptno variable, a new cursor is created, causing resource contention and poor performance. Instead, bind
my_deptno as a bind variable:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE del_dept ( my_deptno dept.deptno%TYPE) IS BEGIN EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'DELETE FROM dept WHERE deptno = :1' USING my_deptno; END; / SHOW ERRORS;
Here, the same cursor is reused for different values of the bind
my_deptno, improving performance and scalabilty.
Native dynamic SQL supports all of the types supported by static SQL in PL/SQL, including user-defined types such as user-defined objects, collections, and
REFs. The
DBMS_SQL package does not support these user-defined types.
Native dynamic SQL and static SQL both support fetching into records, but the
DBMS_SQL package does not. With native dynamic SQL, the rows resulting from a query can be directly fetched into PL/SQL records.
In the following example, the rows from a query are fetched into the
emp_rec record:
DECLARE TYPE EmpCurTyp IS REF CURSOR; c EmpCurTyp; emp_rec emp%ROWTYPE; stmt_str VARCHAR2(200); e_job emp.job%TYPE; BEGIN stmt_str := 'SELECT * FROM emp WHERE job = :1'; -- in a multi-row query OPEN c FOR stmt_str USING 'MANAGER'; LOOP FETCH c INTO emp_rec; EXIT WHEN c%NOTFOUND; END LOOP; CLOSE c; -- in a single-row query EXECUTE IMMEDIATE stmt_str INTO emp_rec USING 'PRESIDENT'; END; /
DBMS_SQL package provides the following advantages over native dynamic SQL:
DBMS_SQL package is supported in client-side programs, but native dynamic SQL is not. Every call to the
DBMS_SQL package from the client-side program translates to a PL/SQL remote procedure call (RPC); these calls occur when you need to bind a variable, define a variable, or execute a statement.
DESCRIBE_COLUMNS procedure in the
DBMS_SQL package can be used to describe the columns for a cursor opened and parsed through
DBMS_SQL. This feature is similar to the
DESCRIBE command in SQL*Plus. Native dynamic SQL does not have a
DESCRIBE facility.
|See Also:
DBMS_SQL package supports SQL statements larger than 32KB; native dynamic SQL does not.
PARSE procedure in the
DBMS_SQL package parses a SQL statement once. After the initial parsing, you can use the statement multiple times with different sets of bind arguments.
Native dynamic SQL prepares a SQL statement each time the statement is used, which typically involves parsing, optimization, and plan generation. Although the extra prepare operations incur a small performance penalty, the slowdown is typically outweighed by the performance benefits of native dynamic SQL.
The following examples illustrate the differences in the code necessary to complete operations with the
DBMS_SQL package and native dynamic SQL. Specifically, the following types of examples are presented:
In general, the native dynamic SQL code is more readable and compact, which can improve developer productivity.
The following example includes a dynamic query statement with one bind variable (
:jobname) and two select columns (
ename and
stmt_str := 'SELECT ename, sal FROM emp WHERE job = :jobname';
This example queries for employees with the job description
SALESMAN in the
job column of the
emp table. Table 6-2 shows sample code that accomplishes this query using the
DBMS_SQL package and native dynamic SQL.

The following example includes a dynamic
INSERT statement for a table with three columns:
stmt_str := 'INSERT INTO dept_new VALUES (:deptno, :dname, :loc)';
This example inserts a new row for which the column values are in the PL/SQL variables
deptname, and
location. Table 6-3 shows sample code that accomplishes this DML operation using the
DBMS_SQL package and native dynamic SQL.

The following example uses a dynamic
UPDATE statement to update the location of a department, then returns the name of the department:
stmt_str := 'UPDATE dept_new SET loc = :newloc WHERE deptno = :deptno RETURNING dname INTO :dname';
Table 6-4 shows sample code that accomplishes this operation using both the

Although this chapter discusses PL/SQL support for dynamic SQL, you can call dynamic SQL from other languages:
If you have an application that uses OCI, Pro*C/C++, or Pro*COBOL to execute dynamic SQL, you should consider switching to native dynamic SQL inside PL/SQL stored procedures and functions. The network round-trips required to perform dynamic SQL operations from client-side applications might hurt performance. Stored procedures can reside on the server, eliminating the network overhead. You can call the PL/SQL stored procedures and stored functions from the OCI, Pro*C/C++, or Pro*COBOL application.

Penguins say Sidney Crosby out indefinitely with broken jaw
Pittsburgh captain had surgery after Saturday's game vs. Islanders
Sidney Crosby was released from the hospital on Monday and has returned home.
Head coach Dan Bylsma gave the update on his injured captain on Tuesday, just hours before the Penguins go for their 16th consecutive win against the Buffalo Sabres at Consol Energy Center.
Crosby, the NHL scoring leader, is out indefinitely after undergoing surgery for a broken jaw.
Winners of 15 consecutive games, two shy of the NHL record for longest winning streak, the Penguins insist they can keep rolling without the face of their franchise.
"Obviously, it's a huge loss and the way Sid's been playing has been unbelievable," winger James Neal said. "Losing him stinks, but at the same time we've got some good depth on this team and that gives a chance for some guys to step up, and definitely for some new guys we just acquired to step up.
"I'm sure we'll be OK."
It was during Crosby's first shift against the New York Islanders on Saturday that he was struck in the mouth by a puck from Brooks Orpik's slap shot that was deflected into an unsuspecting Crosby.
Crosby had dental work performed, in addition to facial surgery and the repairing of his jaw. The team also said there would be additional procedures performed this week.
"You talk about family and our team, we learn about a string of players going over to visit Sidney, people over yesterday at the hospital seeing him," Bylsma said. "I don't sense there's any type of heads down in the room or that type of situation."
In the week before Crosby was knocked out, the Penguins added former Flames captain Jarome Iginla and former Stars captain Brenden Morrow, as well as eight-year veteran defenseman Douglas Murray via trade. Pittsburgh also welcomed back reigning league MVP Evgeni Malkin after he missed 13 of 16 games due to an upper body injury.
Even before Crosby went down, the Penguins learned they would be without their top two defensemen. Kris Letang is day-to-day with a lower body injury and Paul Martin is out four to six weeks after breaking an unspecified bone in his upper body. Martin had surgery Sunday.
"We've lost some players... who aren't with us on the ice right now, but there are capable guys in that room who are ready to go," Bylsma said. "You saw that last game. ... Guys ready to go who know how to play and are ready to play in their absence. We saw that last game, and we'll see it going forward."
Crosby holds a 10-point lead in the NHL scoring race with 56 points. While he has not yet missed a game this season, the 25-year-old was limited to 22 regular-season games over the previous two calendar years because of concussion and neck issues associated with hits he sustained during consecutive games in January 2011.
As painful as this jaw and mouth injury might be, there appears to be no long-term danger to Crosby or any suspicion he will be out for an extended period -- meaning multiple months. Bylsma reiterated Monday there was no indication of any concussion symptoms for Crosby at this time.
The playoffs begin April 30.
"It's a contact sport, that little black thing, that puck, it's a really hard piece of rubber, and it caught him right in the right spot and it's unfortunate," linemate Pascal Dupuis said. "But if you look at it ... if you look at Sid, he came back (from the long absence) and played well.
"And now, it's not a setback. It's an injury we know he will come back 100 percent from it."
During practice, Tyler Kennedy was slotted into Crosby's spot as the Penguins' No. 1 center between Dupuis and Chris Kunitz. Iginla remained on a line with Malkin and Neal, and Morrow was still with Brandon Sutter and Matt Cooke.
"We're just trying to keep doing what we're doing and keep playing the same way," Sutter said.
"Obviously, Sid's a pretty special player here, but it's an opportunity for someone -- or a couple guys -- to step up.
"And we've still got Evgeni Malkin, the MVP. I think we'll be all right. No one needs to change their game.

This isn't a review so much as a gleeful and giddy note of excitement about putting Debian on my Thinkpad after I ran aground with some wireless issues in Arch. Remembering the lightning fast (comparatively, of course) performance of Debian on the K6-2, I was rather pleased with myself when I remembered I wanted to try it on the 550Mhz Celeron.
Technically, or at least from my perspective, there's not a lot of difference between the Celeron and the K6-2. After all, a Celeron runs a little slower (according to most geeks) than a Pentium III, and it does have less memory than the K6-2 had. But start times are around 1:08, which is faster than the Sotec's time, and system responsiveness is better than what I remember from the Sotec.
I suppose that's only to be expected too: The system is working at 800×600 and has more video memory. The hard drive is a 40Gb 5400rpm model, where the Sotec was suffering with 1024×768, 2Mb VRAM and a 4200rpm hard drive, if I remember right. So even if the processor has a little more speed and a little less memory, the system demands are lesser.
I did a net installation in about two hours. I immediately had one kernel update, and I've added ntp to solve some small clock issues. I plan on keeping this one close to stock, for as long as it lasts. Clean and simple, and nothing else.
And to be honest, there's not much else to say — everything works just fine, which is what I expect from a Debian installation. And it moves quite fast, which is what I have learned to expect from Sarge. And after my disappointment with Debian testing, I have no plans to try the newest version — I'll stay with the quicker, cleaner Debian, thanks. Sometimes an earlier edition is an improvement.
But it still amazes me that a machine this slow can work under a Gnome desktop. Even if it is a few versions behind current. I wouldn't dare try this with Ubuntu, can't find the repos for it for Crux … so I suppose I could attempt it in Arch. But … nah. I'll leave it to Debian to handle Gnome for me. I kind of like it that way. 😉

Basic cost accounting for process manufacturing
As business aspects of running a process plant become more important to operators, it helps to understand some simple accounting concepts.
The article last month on how process engineers and operators are getting more involved in the business elements of running a plant suggested that operators need to learn some basic concepts of accounting. While the fine points of "bean counting" may not be the most appealing to people more used to working with PID, the underlying concepts are really fairly simple. Given that people in the plant are most concerned with costs, we'll stick to that side of the business rather than looking at more traditional financial accounting methods.
Accountants like to match costs with the activities that create products and value. This matching concept is fundamental and important to keep in mind. The income a plant generates is easy enough to understand because the output is sold at a specific price per ton. To figure out if you're profitable, you have to compare income against cost.
Costs are a bit more complicated, and there are two main components. The first part is the direct cost (aka variable cost), which includes tangible things directly connected to production of your output. If your plant typically produces 100,000 tons of product per month, that requires a corresponding amount of feedstock, gas to fire boilers, operators to watch the process, electricity to run pumps, scrubbers, etc. What are the costs incurred to create that amount of product, or, reversed, what costs would not be there if we had not run production at all? Direct costs should vary directly with the level of output. Let's say for the sake of argument, at normal production levels, direct costs for your plant add up to $600/ton, so total direct cost for a month is $60 million. (These numbers are all made up, so don't read too much into them.)
Direct costs are the most obvious, and sometimes casual observers believe their plant is far more profitable than it is because they assume that is the only cost element. The other side of the accounting coin is indirect costs, and that's where things get more complicated.
Every plant has costs that aren't directly related to production, and there are lots of different kinds:
- Rent or property costs for the facility
- Maintenance (equipment and people)
- Infrastructure (keeping the lights and air conditioning on)
- Security services
- Loading dock
- Plant office building, equipment, and staff
- Non-production utilities, and
- Assorted ancillary things.
Since indirect costs do not change with production levels, they tend to be relatively stable and so are sometimes called fixed costs. (Capital equipment is usually handled differently, so buying a new reactor comes from a capital account.)
Accountants like to take all those indirect costs and add them up into one massive number for the month. Then they split it up into the number of units for the typical output of the month. So, continuing our model, let's say indirect costs are $2,000,000 per month. We divide that according to our output of 100,000 tons, so the indirect cost per ton is $20.
That means the total cost per ton is $620. Anything beyond that will be handled farther up the food chain. Others will deal with the gross margin, etc. Ultimately, you can make things better or worse by making your cost lower or higher. So, how can you improve things?
Raw materials—You might not have any influence on what you pay for feedstock, but you should be able to help improve efficiency and reduce the amount lost in production.
Energy—Again, maybe you can't control pricing, but you can help control consumption.
Output—Even though you probably don't control indirect costs directly, any time you can increase production, the indirect cost gets divided by more units of output, so the indirect cost per ton goes down.
Your accountants establish standard costs for your products based on experience. When the actual cost deviates from the standard, it's called a variance. Variances can be favorable or unfavorable. Unfavorable is when production goes down because of an outage, and now you have fewer units of output and the indirect cost goes up per ton. Or, your energy efficiency goes down because a heat exchanger is fouling and it drives up your direct cost. That's a bad thing.
Favorable is when you can increase output, improve efficiency, or do something else to come in under the standard cost. Start looking for opportunities. That gets you the kind of attention you want.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service acting Director Rowan Gould announced that $12.8 million will be awarded to 31 states under the Clean Vessel Act grant program in 2010. The grants will be used to fund the construction and installation of sewage pumpout facilities and floating restrooms, to purchase pumpout boats and to provide educational programs for recreational boaters.
"Clean Vessel Act funding supports the construction of facilities in communities that depend largely on recreational boating for their economy – and depend on clean water for their health and the health of their environment," said Gould.
Funding for the program comes from the Sport Fishing and Boating Trust Fund, formerly known as the Aquatic Resources Trust Fund, which is supported by excise taxes levied on certain fishing and boating equipment and boat fuels.
Some of the major awards include:
