Amy Olsen, sophomore member of the Iona College women's water polo team, will chronicle this season on ICGaels.com as the Gaels look to repeat as MAAC Champions and return to the NCAA Championships. In 2011, Olsen was named MAAC Rookie of the Year and a Second Team All-MAAC Selection after scoring 95 points on 75 goals and 20 assists, and was recently named to the All-MAAC First Team. Outside the pool, Olsen is a double major in English and Mass Communication with a concentration in Television and Video and writer for the school newspaper, The Ionian.
NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP - PART 1Greetings from San Diego! We are officially the MAAC Water Polo Champions, and have reached our goal to compete at the 2012 NCAA Championship at San Diego State University. After trailing in the championship game against Wagner, down by four goals early in the game, and taking the game by one point in overtime, it is safe to say that we have earned our right to be here.
Another week and a half of practice was tough, while also finishing our finals early, but we managed and after a five and a half hour plane ride, we arrived here on Wednesday in sunny California. Thursday was a great day for us. In the morning, we went to the Aztec Aquaplex, the home for the Championship, where we got a chance to warm up and get accustomed to the pool. With the day ahead of us, we took a trip to the famous San Diego Zoo. Your fellow Gaels basically took as we took a bus tour, went on a "Skyfari" ride, and took an obnoxious amount of photographs, as you can tell by the attached gallery.
Our day was wrapped up at the official Championship banquet, held at the San Diego Hall of Champions. After our dinner, each team had one player go up and the team's season. Our representative, senior Caitlin McGregor, did a fantastic job. She incorporated our team's love for food, singing, use of the term "Gael", and how we respond to the people who ask us questions about water polo.
The keynote speaker of the event was Vicky Barker, who was not only a tremendous water polo player herself, but is now a lawyer specializing in cases regarding Title IV. This year happens to be the fortieth anniversary for Title IV, and Vicky discussed the history of Title IV and how women's college water polo all began. It was a great feeling to be in a room full of athletes that have had similar experiences as you, the same hunger for the sport you love, and to learn together how far women's water polo, and women's athletics in general, have come.
Iona's water polo is a perfect example of progress. Coach Brian Kelly started the program seventeen years ago and we have now reached the NCAA tournament for the second year in a row. Last year we were the eighth seed, and after the experience of last year's NCAA tournament along with a long year of hard work, this year we are the seventh seed. Experience is not everything, but it certainly is one of the most valuable aspects a team can have.
So far the time here has been memorable one for all of us, and the games have not even begun. We open up against UCLA, one of the nation's very best, and we plan on giving them a great game. We do not know what other teams will we place just yet, but I do know that I have complete confidence in my teammates and coaches. We are so thankful for all the support we have been given, and for the opportunity to be here. We know that after this tournament we will have gained another great experience and finished our season in the best way possible.
Until Next Time,

Flipkart as always delivered the product in good condition in 2 days.
Feedback for Flipkart to provide batteries and adaptor and charge for it.
I got this product for my father. The Product is very good and the sound quality is great. No crackling noise even at high levels. Very light weight and the looks are good too. Glowing knob is very nice to see and the inclusion of a led torch is a novel idea. Got 3 batteries along with the set, but inclusion of a AC power adapter might add great value to money. Overall a very good product by Philips. Packaging and delivery by Flipkart is a good experience. I recommend this product to users and definitely would buy again from Flipkart.
1. The sound quality is very good. the sound does not cracks at high volume level.
2. good looking 4-band (mw, sw, fm, tv) portable radio model.
3. the 3 nos. of battery is supplied with this model.
4. As I feel, the cover of the radio should also be a part of this supply..

My first thought on opening the box was that it does not look as good as depicted in the photograph and phillips could have done better in terms of build quality. Still a good looking radio.
Has some great features like integrated torch, lighted tuner dial.
The radio has a very long antenna , the reception is great. It's a 3 band radio SW,MW,FM . As expected SW is virtually unsable in city environment due to too much electromagnetic noise.

After I bought the radio I find that the battery gets over within 15 days. You should have some rechangeable battery which we can buy or adaptor for the radio which will be useful. The radio is good but the battery becomes costly. You may therefore advertse for free adaptor alongwith the radio. (View complete review)

NASCAR docks Jeff Gordon 25 points for wreck involving Clint Bowyer
Charlotte, NC, United States (4E Sports) – Four-time NASCAR Sprint Cup champion Jeff Gordon was slapped with a $100,000 fine, docked 25 points and placed on probation for the remainder of the season Monday for intentionally wrecking Clint Bowyer in Sunday's Sprint Cup race at Phoenix International Raceway.
"Clint has run into me numerous times, wrecked me, and he got into me on the back straightaway and pretty much ruined our day," Gordon said after the race. "I've had it, fed up with it, and I got him back."
NASCAR, however, did not hit Gordon with a suspension, unlike what happened to Kyle Busch for intentionally wrecking Ron Hornaday Jr. in the Truck Series under caution last year.
"It's pretty embarrassing for a four-time champion and what I consider one of the best this sport's ever seen … to act like that is just completely ridiculous," Bowyer said.
According to Bowyer and his spotter, Gordon waited on the track to wreck him after the two made contact earlier, cutting down one of Gordon's tires.
When Bowyer came back around, Gordon slammed his car into the side of the No. 15 Michael Waltrip Racing Toyota, collecting Joey Logano's car in the process.
Gordon explained that his response was an accumulation of frustration from incidents throughout the year, beginning when Bowyer wrecked him and teammate Jimmie Johnson at Martinsville.
The loss of points dropped Gordon to 11th in the standings. Only the top 10 in points are allowed to attend the champions' banquet on Dec. 30 in Las Vegas.
For his part, the incident left Bowyer with a 28th-place finish, eliminating him from contention for the championship with one race remaining.
NASCAR met with Gordon, Bowyer and others in the NASCAR hauler after the race to discuss what happened on the track and the ensuing fights that occurred between personnel from the two squads.
However, Bowyer didn't rule out retaliating against Gordon in the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
"We'll just have to see," he said.
NASCAR also docked Rick Hendrick 25 owner points and Alan Gustafson was placed on probation for the remainder of the year under the rule that stipulates the crew chief is responsible for his driver and team members during a race event.
Bowyer's crew chief, Brian Pattie, was fined $25,000 and placed on probation through Dec. 31.
"There's no doubt that a unique set of circumstances combined with a championship battle on the line resulted in raw emotions coming into play," NASCAR vice president for competition Robin Pemberton said in a statement.
"We consider the penalties appropriate and those involved understand our decision and we expect them to abide by them," he added.

The new flagship.
From legendary machines like the Z1 and GPZ900R to modern hyper-bikes like the ZZ-R1100, Kawasaki's flagship machines have set the performance standards that others have followed. This tradition continues with the incredible new ZZR1400, a machine which delivers as yet unheard of levels of performance and excitement.
The Aura of Power.
Powered by an all-new engine force-fed with Ram Air and fuel injection, the ZZR1400. churns out unheard of levels of thrust. Yet in spite of the incredible performance of Kawasaki's most powerful power plant ever, careful engine tuning allows almost anyone to enjoy the bike's softer, more rider-friendly side.
Next Generation Aluminium Monocoque Frame.
Impressive as the ZZR's engine performance is, it is the lightweight handling qualities. Never has a "big bike" offered such responsive handling. The secret? Kawasaki's next generation aluminium monocoque frame, that gives the bike both responsive handling qualities and incredible highway stability.
Unmistakable Presence.
As befits its flagship status, the ZZR offers an advanced aerodynamics package and an avant-garde design, including quadruple projector beam headlights . The central Ram Air duct like that of the Ninja supersport bikes gives the ZZR a consistent Kawasaki face.
Excellent Comfort.
Despite its long and low appearance, the ZZR offers a very relaxed sport riding position. Compact without being cramped, the bars are positioned so that riders do not have to stretch to reach them. Low-set footpegs give ample legroom.
Radial Clutch Master Cylinder
enlarge imageHydraulically operated clutch features a radial-mount clutch master cylinder for worry-free, silky smooth clutch operation.
enlarge imageInverted 43 mm cartridge fork and New Uni-Trak linkage rear suspension complement the highly rigid frame, offering both great controllability at high speeds and superb road holding ability when sport riding in the hills
Ergonomics & Aerodynamics

Compact without being cramped, the bars are positioned so that riders do not have to stretch to reach them. The low seat height and narrow seat front make it easy to reach the ground when stopped at lights.

Red Hat Directory Server 8 with Improved Security
Linux distributor Red Hat has released version 8 of the Red Hat Directory Server.
The codebase for the authentication server was taken from the free Fedora Directory Server project; the product is being marketed with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). The main objective of Version 8.0 was to achieve compatibility with Red Hat's own installer, RPM, as the developers stated in their product release announcement. This means that users can rely on the standard update process available on the Red Hat Network. One of the customer references that Red Hat cites is the University of Basle, Switzerland, where the Red Hat Directory Server controls access to the university computers by some 15,000 students.
The other new features in version 8.0 include improved IPv6 support, and above all advanced security functions. For example, the password syntax rules have been revised, and the software now comes with an SE Linux profile out of the box. A module certified by the NSS (National Security Service) has also been added for FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standards) compliance. The Red Hat Directory Server 8 now supports additional platforms, running on RHEL 4 and 5, on 32 or 64 bit platforms, the 64 bit Itanium platform HP-UX 11i, and 64 bit SPARC computers with the Solaris 9 operating system.
Red Hat bought the technology for Directory Server from AOL/Netscape, publishing the sources for Netscape Directory Server in the summer of 2005. In the meantime, Fedora Directory Server has become part of a newer, more generic project known as freeIPA, which deals with identitity management, policies and auditing for Unix and Linux operating systems.

Fed Notes Better Economy, Takes no Policy Action
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Federal Reserve offered a more positive view of the economy after a burst of hiring since its last meeting. It held off taking further steps to boost the recovery.
The Fed noted in a statement after its one-day meeting Wednesday that the unemployment rate has declined notably and should continue to fall. It also said strains in the global financial markets have eased, though it warned they continue to pose a threat.
Further hiring gains could put pressure on policymakers to rethink a plan to keep short-term interest rates near zero until at least late 2014.
Still, the Fed stuck with that timeframe in the statement. It said that while prices of crude oil and gasoline will push up inflation temporarily, longer-term inflation should remain stable.

Isn't human skill a more tangible currency than trust in the new economy?
In the Rachel Botsman's talk, she makes an observation about two things essentially: "the new economy" and "the currency" it operates on. Before going further I thought I will first understand the current status. In today's economy currency is the medium of exchange between production and consumption and is based on natural resources of energy and their trade among countries.
In order to understand "the new economy" I looked around on ted for some help and I found that in one of his talks Yochai Benkler observes that "Social production is a real fact, not a fad. Social relations and exchange become significantly more important than they ever were as an economic phenomenon" because " computation storage and communication capacity are in the hands of an ever growing number of users and these activities are the core basis of an information economy." I realized that internet is the driver of the new economy where production and consumption is driven socially.
In another talk Don Tapscott opines that sharing, collaboration, transparency and empowerment are the four principles of the open world.
After having learnt about an open economy in the open world I concluded that the new economy will have the similar dynamics. And I tried to scale the theory to the real world today as the context of interaction are about the real time environment.
In reality today production is less than consumption. And as the new economy is opined to be predominantly social. It will be safe to assume that social interactions will drive our interaction with our natural environment.
At a global scale this means skill set sharing will not be limited to services but will be extended to products. Since energy is the core basis of all and any product the future indicates multi-national energy sharing.
And in that case the only thing that will matter is being a user. Human resource will be globally sourced will A human skill set is thus I believe the currency of the new economy

Nov 17 2012: Humans are not born with skill like cheetahs or any other animals are not born with skill they are acquired by training or a study which takes time. Being human is not a skill set. Definition of "Skill": Proficiency, facility, or dexterity that is acquired or developed through training or experience. Instincts are something you are born with like walking or breathing or eating and many other things. I don't know if I will have a chance to respond to the next post but any ways nice conversation and thanks for having patience and explaining what the new economy has to hold. I don't know how the average US citizens would adapt to this economy.

text: According to Deadline.com, the reported upcoming biopic on Freddie Mercury, has just lost its star. After more than three years of working on the project, Sacha Baron Cohen has decided to drop the role from his production schedule. Cohen apparently wasn't in agreement with the remaining members of Queen on the project. The band was hoping to make the biopic a more family-friendly PG film while Cohen wanted a more real-life, R-rated film.

On-Stage Stands Expands Hang-It Series with New GS8200 ProGrip II Guitar StandsApril 06, 2011
On-Stage Stands, the leader in innovative instrument support products, introduces its new GS8200 ProGrip II Hang-It Guitar Stand. This pro-level stand joins other models in the Hang-It series like the GS8100 ProGrip Guitar Stand, GS7155 Single Guitar Stand, GS7255 Double Guitar Stand, and GS7355 Triple Guitar stand. Like all Hang-It models, the GS8200 is designed to allow guitars, basses, banjos, and similar instruments to hang securely from their headstocks rather than sitting in a cradle. The Hang-It design is exceptionally stable and especially well suited for long instruments with asymmetrical body styles.
Introduced earlier last year, the first generation GS8100 Pro-Grip Stand is equipped with our exclusive patent-pending ProGrip gate system. When placed into the GS8100's cam-activated yoke, the instrument's weight closes the padded gates, locking the headstock firmly in place. The instrument stays put even with the vigorous bumping that can occur on crowded stages or in rehearsal studios. The system releases simply by lifting the guitar up and out of the stand.
The new GS8200 ProGrip II also utilizes an auto-locking yoke system, but features a spring-loaded gate, allowing for even easier instrument removal. The weight of a guitar draws the spring-loaded yoke arms to pull the gates of the yoke shut, all in one single action. Picking up the guitar opens the gates instantly outward for unobstructed removal. The GS8200 also includes a purple designer cam locking mid-point clutch and reinforced leg housing.
Like the GS8100, the GS8200 is lined with soft velveteen rubber at all contact points, specially formulated to avoid marring and/or reacting with instrument finishes. The GS8200's wide reinforced tripod base supports up to 40lbs, and the yoke height is adjustable from 30" to 43". Suitable for any style of guitar, bass, or banjo, the GS8200 (List $59.99) provides peace of mind on stage and in the studio.
The GS8200 will be available in April. Visit www.onstagestands.com for more information on the GS8200, and all other On-Stage Stands products.

DD Audio subwoofers, woofers and mid-bass drivers are world renown for innovative technology and unparalleled build quality. We have been manufacturing speakers for over 25 years and unlike industry trends, we are still proudly made in the USA.
DD Audio amplifiers are application specific designs emphasizing high performance and reliability. All DD amps are built using industry leading part manufacturers like Burr-Brown, International Rectifier, Fairchild and Tocos. Our LV type power supply on high powered amplifiers increases output power where it is really needed, at 12 volts and below.
The DD monoblock amplifiers are available in CM and M Series. The CM Series are our highest power to cost ratio amplifiers and feature class AB output sections. The M.80, M1c and M2b amps are our newest generation class D monoblocks with compacted PCB layouts, small footprints with big power . The M3a and M4a round out the lineup with heavy hitting power - up to 20,000 Watts coming from a strapped pair. There is a DD monoblock for virtually every application.
DD Audio offers 3 series of full range amplifiers :
- The C Series amps are our Go-To amps for most daily driving applications. The C amps offer good sound quality, install friendly features and high-end cosmetics at price points normally associated with budget, entry level offerings.
- The S Series amps have more of everything, more power, higher slope xovers, high grade pots and components. This amp class is aimed at the more complex installations where higher channel power, finer control and more precision is needed.
- The SS Series are small chassis amps with our new, discrete full range, class D circuit making high power, high fidelity and high efficiency available in a compact chassis.
DD coaxial and component speakers utilize sound quality design features coupled with high energy motor systems to set the standard for aftermarket audio upgrades. All DD speakers incorporate Faraday rings, high temperature voice coil wire, state of the art cone technology, and countless hours of R&D time. All these features come together to give you the sound to truly enjoy the ride.
Component Sets
Audiophile Series
Voice Optimized
SuperCharged Motor Structures
Our Z motor research has developed techniques to take otherwise lost magnetic energy and redirect in the areas that increase the strength of the motor. The SuperCharged option focuses 20-25% more energy into the magnet gap, allowing smaller and lighter motors to equal the drive
Faraday Shorting Rings
When the voice coil of a speaker moves within the speaker motor, it will generate a "back EMF" - a voltage opposite of that which is driving it. So, at the same time an amplifier is trying to drive the speaker, the coil in the speaker is simultaneously trying to drive a counter-signal back into the amplifier. The EMF also distorts the flux in the magnetic gap. Faraday Rings are shorted coils which react to the back EMF generated in the VC as it moves, in order to stabilize the magnetic field, flux in the gap as the VC moves. Faraday rings lower distortion, lower rising inductance and extend frequency response.
Free Flow Cooling System
The VO Series use DD's exclusive Free Flow Cooling System which pumps cooling air around the through the voice coil. Machined air passages in the top plates, pole pieces and back plates direct air pressurized by the dustcaps and spiders directly to the voice coil. The harder the speakers plays, the more air is pumped though the motor.
DD loaded enclosures are all one needs to add great bass to a car while sacrificing minimal cargo area. The LE Series utilize the DDbox system combined with high efficiency drivers made for this application. Hearing your car on DD has never been so easy.

Mention the word 'homework' and any student will shudder dramatically.
Yet many slave for hours every night working towards better grades.
Homework, we seem to feel, is essential.
"That's an unfortunate perception because if you look at the research it hasn't always proven that," says UNC Charlotte Associate Professor for the Department of Counseling Henry Harris.
In fact Harris says more homework doesn't always equal a betters education.
"When you look at homework and academic achievement at the elementary level there's really no impact," says Harris.
"There is some gain in the middle school and then there was even a little bit more gain in high school."
That's not the end of the homework hurdles.
Another problem? The home itself.
"When kids are at school they are doing work they are in a controlled quieter environment whereas at home they are so many other distractions," says Harris.
The result of this is that many schools are changing their homework policies.
"Some may not be assigning any homework but what they are doing is telling kids you must read 20 to 30 minutes per night," says Harris.
Other schools go with a policy supported by Duke University giving students about 10 minutes of homework each night, per grade level starting in first grade.
Educators say moderation is critical and homework should be based upon grade level
Younger students only benefit from small assignments, if they're getting help at home.

FORT WAYNE – Valparaiso's name had barely popped up on the television screen as a No. 14 seed against No. 3 Michigan State in the Midwest Region when some of the CBS analysts were already removing the Crusaders from the tournament picture.
I think it will be interesting to see if Michigan State can withstand the pressure and athleticism of a Memphis team, studio analyst Doug Gottlieb said, looking ahead into the next round.
First must come the second round, when the Crusaders (26-7) and Horizon League regular-season and tournament champions face Michigan State (25-8) on Thursday at the Palace of Auburn Hills in Auburn Hills, Mich. The game time will be announced today.
It seems as though Valpo has a history over being overlooked.
See 1998, The Shot, Bryce Drew, No. 13 seed Valpo 70, No. 4 Mississippi 69.
In his second season as the Crusaders' head coach, Drew has taken over the reins from his father, Homer, and kept the beat going.
By entering the tournament on a six-game winning streak, having won 10 of its last 11 and 16 of its last 18, Valpo is one of the hotter teams in the NCAA tournament.
Its 26 victories are the most in the school's Division I history.
The Crusaders needed a buzzer-beating three-pointer from 6-foot-7 senior forward Ryan Broekhoff to defeat Green Bay 70-69 in the semifinals of the Horizon League tournament, then beat Wright State in the championship game, 62-54.
It marks the first time that Valparaiso, formerly of the Mid-Continent Conference (now Summit League), has reached the NCAA tournament under the Horizon League banner.
Valparaiso ranks fourth among Division I teams in field goal shooting at 56.1 percent.
Broekhoff leads the team in scoring (15.9 average) and rebounding (7.3), and Kevin Van Wijk, a 6-7 senior, adds 12.7 points per game.

Parents in Woonsocket were notified by the Education Department of a suspicious man roaming the area.
Woonsocket Police say a man tried to lure a girl into his maroon van. They describe the man as being heavyset with white hair and a mustache.
"Woonsocket Police is gonna be out there in full force, not just with marked cars, but with undercover cars looking for this individual," said Sgt. Matt Ryan.
Police aren't releasing what school the man was at because they want all in the community to be on alert.
Officials are also asking parents to tell their children the seriousness of this matter.
'It's scary; I grew up in the 70s. It wasn't like that, but it's today's age you know," said Tracy Mullett, parent.
Mullett says she talked to her kids right away about the situation.
"You know just be very, very aware. Don't talk to strangers, don't get in anyone's car, just keep walking, scream," said Mullett.

Coral Gables trolleys have been spotted at a controversial maintenance garage nearing completion in Coconut Grove.
But the city is not using the garage for maintenance. The trolleys were on site because the city has been performing inspections required by contract.
The city, however, still believes the garage violates zoning laws, said Coral Gables City Attorney Craig Leen.
"This is something by contract that we're required to do," he said. "Obviously, I understand the residents' concern and our position is the same as theirs, that it doesn't meet the zoning."
The city, which sided with residents in the historic black neighborhood who bitterly oppose the garage, finds itself in the awkward position of having to both comply with its contract with developer Henry Torres and zoning laws, Leen explained.
"We're trying to do two things," he said, "but I want to assure the residents we have not changed our position."
Torres and Coral Gables struck a land swap deal last year in which the city agreed to give the developer land where the garage now sits near the swank Village of Merrick Park shopping mall if Torres found a new spot. Torres wants to build a 10-story mixed use luxury condominium project.
The developer bought several lots in the 3300 block of Douglas Road and obtained a permit for the garage from the city of Miami. No public hearing was required.
But residents have repeatedly complained that their objections were ignored. With the help of pro bono attorneys, they sued in state court, arguing the garage violated Miami's zoning laws. A judge ruled they failed to follow Miami's appeal process.
After they sued, Coral Gables filed its own lawsuit, arguing that it, too, believed the 12-bay garage failed to comply with zoning laws. The city and the developer are expected to be in court in February.
In the meantime, the city must comply with obligations included in the contract, including the inspections, Leen explained.
The garage also caught the attention of federal transportation officials after a resident filed a complaint. Last month, the U.S. Department of Transportation found that both cities, along with the county, violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and ordered the governments to comply by conducting studies on the impact the garage will have on the surrounding neighborhood. They must also perform public outreach.
The three governments wrote federal transportation officials on Dec. 2 saying they would comply but object to the findings, Leen explained. The Federal Transit Administration, which conducted the investigation, is "preparing a response that will be transmitted in the near future," a spokeswoman said Tuesday.

17 U.S. Code § 603 - Importation prohibitions: Enforcement and disposition of excluded articles
prev | next
(a) The Secretary of the Treasury and the United States Postal Service shall separately or jointly make regulations for the enforcement of the provisions of this title prohibiting importation.
(b) These regulations may require, as a condition for the exclusion of articles under section 602—
(1) that the person seeking exclusion obtain a court order enjoining importation of the articles; or
(2) that the person seeking exclusion furnish proof, of a specified nature and in accordance with prescribed procedures, that the copyright in which such person claims an interest is valid and that the importation would violate the prohibition in section 602; the person seeking exclusion may also be required to post a surety bond for any injury that may result if the detention or exclusion of the articles proves to be unjustified.
(c) Articles imported in violation of the importation prohibitions of this title are subject to seizure and forfeiture in the same manner as property imported in violation of the customs revenue laws. Forfeited articles shall be destroyed as directed by the Secretary of the Treasury or the court, as the case may be.
Source(Pub. L. 94–553, title I, § 101,Oct. 19, 1976, 90 Stat. 2590; Pub. L. 104–153, § 8,July 2, 1996, 110 Stat. 1388.)
Historical and Revision Notes
house report no. 94–1476
The importation prohibitions of both sections 601 and 602 would be enforced under section 603, which is similar to section 109 of the statute now in effect [section 109 of former title 17]. Subsection (a) would authorize the Secretary of the Treasury and the United States Postal Service to make regulations for this purpose, and subsection (c) provides for the disposition of excluded articles.
Subsection (b) ofsection 603 deals only with the prohibition against importation of "piratical" copies or phonorecords, and is aimed at solving problems that have arisen under the present statute. Since the United States Customs Service is often in no position to make determinations as to whether particular articles are "piratical," section 603 (b) would permit the Customs regulations to require the person seeking exclusion either to obtain a court order enjoining importation, or to furnish proof of his claim and to post bond.
1996—Subsec. (c). Pub. L. 104–153substituted a period at end for "; however, the articles may be returned to the country of export whenever it is shown to the satisfaction of the Secretary of the Treasury that the importer had no reasonable grounds for believing that his or her acts constituted a violation of law."

College of Liberal Arts
Special Programs
Clarence E. Dammon Dean's Scholars Program
This program offers a select group of first-year students the opportunity to live in a learning community with other high achievers, to meet faculty and administrators at special events, to take a one-credit seminar on undergraduate research and success with the director of honors, and to pursue research with a member of the College of Liberal Arts (CLA) faculty. All incoming students who are awarded either a Trustees Scholarship or Presidential Scholarship or who qualify for the CLA Honors Program are invited to apply. To qualify for the honors program, first-year students need to have a combined SAT score of 1800 or higher, an ACT score of 26 or higher or be in the upper 10 percent of their graduating class. For more about this program, please see the CLA Honors Program website,www.cla.purdue.edu/academics/honors.
Honors Program
The College of Liberal Arts Honors Program is designed to provide excellent students with enriched, individualized, unusual educational opportunities. Students who qualify for the program have the opportunity to engage in advanced work with individual professors and to take special courses with limited enrollments available only to honors students. They also are permitted to make special arrangements in conjunction with regularly offered courses that will enhance the particular educational experience. The college works with honors students to discover the most imaginative, exciting and intellectually challenging education available for them within the liberal arts at Purdue.
Students must have a GPA of 3.3 or better to apply to the Honors Program; however, beginning students may still take honors courses. To register for honors courses, entering students need to have an SAT score of 1800 (combined) or higher, an ACT score of 26 or higher, or be in the upper 10 percent of their graduating class. To graduate with college honors in Liberal Arts, a member of the program must complete at least 24 honors credits during the undergraduate career.
The honors experience at Purdue involves numerous activities beyond the classroom. Honors students are given the opportunity to meet lleading professors at special events, to talk with visiting speakers and artists and to participate in the annual Honors Colloquium. The College of Liberal Arts wants honors students to develop strong, confident, inquiring minds. To do that, the program transcends the classroom. By introducing students to men and women shaping the future and aware of the limitations of current knowledge, the college helps students to move past the ordinary constraints of learning and gain a vision of that future.

Our emergency teams have been working through the night to shore up defences, monitor river levels, clear blockages from watercourses and pump out flood water from towns.
If you are going away for the Christmas holidays, give yourself extra time to make your journey, check your route before travelling and avoid driving through flood water."

MOTORISTS in west Somerset are being strongly advised to adhere to road closures following severe flooding in Dulverton.
The Environment Agency and all emergency services have been working over the weekend to ensure residents and motorists remain safe following the wet weather.
Across today, (December 23), many motorists have been failing to adhere to road closures and diversions and have been putting themselves and the emergency services in danger.
Ch Insp Kevan Rowlands said: "As a result of the weather there are many road closures and diversions across Dulverton, but many people are choosing to ignore them by either removing them or driving around them. They are then becoming trapped in water and in turn need to be rescued by the emergency services.
"Motorists doing this are not only risking their own lives but others. I would urge anyone who comes across a road closure to take another route and not attempt to use that road network."
The Environment agency are keeping residents up to date about the current situation and all current road closures can be views on its website.

LATEST updates from the Met Office as heavy rain is set to sweep across county tomorrow (December 22), Sunday and on Christmas Eve.
Saturday/Sunday: Further bands of heavy rain accompanied by strong winds are expected to move northeastwards across the southwest of England through Saturday and early Sunday.
Given that the ground is already saturated, the public should be prepared for the risk of localised flooding from both rivers and surface water. This could well lead to disruption to travel, with a low likelihood of severe disruption.
This warning has been updated to include more of Dorset, Somerset and the Bristol area.
Christmas Eve: A further spell of wet weather is expected to affect parts of England and Wales on Christmas Eve. Given already saturated ground from recent rainfall, the public should be prepared for an increased risk of both surface water and river flooding along with disruption to travel.
MORE heavy rain is expected to drench most of the county tomorrow (December 22).
Forecasters say the South-West will get some respite from the extreme weather coniditions today, but expect more rain the lash most of the region over the weekend.
The Met Office has issued an amber warning of rain for South-West England.
Motorists. Steer clear of flood water this morning. Just 2 foot of water can float your car. #floodaware— @EnvAgency 20 December 2012

DEVON and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service has issued a warning to motorists about the dangers of driving through flood water.
A spokesman said: "Conditions could be similar to those experienced across Devon and Somerset at the end of last month, with heavy rain falling on already saturated ground.
"During one 24-hour period in November alone, fire crews in Devon and Somerset attended 51 incidents involving vehicles stuck in floodwater.
"For days after the flooding, crews were still being called to vehicles stuck in floodwater after motorists had ignored or moved road closure signs.
"Fire officers are asking residents not to drive through flood water, as they could be putting themselves or others in danger.
"Attending incidents which could be prevented may also divert fire crews from other incidents where lives are at risk."
Area manager Alex Hanson said: "It is impossible for motorists to tell how deep water is or the condition of the ground beneath. There is a significant risk to life if motorists become stranded.
"We recommend that people do not make non-essential journeys if they live in areas prone to flooding.
"If they do see floodwater on the road, they should not attempt to drive through it but should try to find an alternative route.
"And if a road has been closed, it is for the safety of the public and closure signs should be respected."
I can officially quash the rumors and news reports that the A361 Burrowbridge to Taunton road is flooded, no problems whatsoever!— @BrianPhippsEA 20 December 2012
What are the roads like to Taunton today? Are they flooded?— @Live_LoveMusic_ 20 December 2012
