Iran dissidents Sotoudeh and Panahi win Sakharov prize
26 October 2012 Last updated at 22:59 BST
The European Union's annual Sakharov prize has gone to two Iranians noted for their opposition to the government.
Lawyer Nasrin Sotoudeh, who represents opposition activists and is now in prison, and banned filmmaker Jafar Panahi who for two years has been living under house arrest were the joint winners.
The Sakharov Prize is awarded by the EU for dedication to the defence of human rights and freedom of thought.
The panel said the pair had refused "to be bowed by fear and intimidation".

Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2008 Jaguar X-Type
By KBB.com Editors
The X-Type has never quite lived up to Jaguar's expectations, at least not in the U.S. Designed to go head-to-head with the Audi A4 and BMW 3 Series, the X-Type has not had success bringing younger buyers into the Jaguar fold, at least partially due to its somewhat stoic styling, lofty price tag and middle-of-the-road performance. While both the Audi and BMW have undergone complete updates since the X-Type's introduction, the current model soldiers on for 2007 wearing the same exterior and interior, as well as the same V6 powerplant and all-wheel-drive layout. Available in sedan and wagon forms, the X-Type may not be the ultimate sport sedan, but it can provide a bit of Coventry style and flair at a price most social climbers will find agreeable.
If you're looking for a compact premium luxury sedan with all-wheel drive, a lavish interior and a price that's a relative bargain, the X-Type should make your shopping list.
If you are bigger than average, the X-Type's narrow seats may feel somewhat cozy, and some people might find the interior to be too old-fashioned for such an apparently youth-oriented vehicle.
New standard features include Dynamic Stability Control, a power moonroof and split-folding rear seats on sedan models. The 3.0 wagon receives Reverse Park Control and 17-inch Bermuda-style alloy wheels.
The X-Type's 3.0-liter V6 is both robust and efficient, but it lacks the refinement expected of such a high-end nameplate. With the loss of the manual transmission option, enthusiasts must...
... rely on the awkward but traditional Jaguar J-gated automatic to change gears. Left to its own devices, the automatic works fine, providing seamless shifts and smooth operation at all speeds.
On the road, the X-Type exhibits a stable and controlled ride. The suspension is tight, capable and every bit a contender in this all-star league. Cornering has very little body roll, the steering is responsive and direct and the overall behavior is competent, controlled, sure and refined.
Leaper Hood Ornament
No matter what car it's attached to, the classic Jaguar "leaper" hood ornament brings a smile to our faces.
Appreciable Standard Features
Standard all-wheel drive and a V6 engine for less than $35,000 are good deals in this field.
The X-Type's seats, door panels and headliner are all beautifully put together; the fine leathers and elegant stitch patterns on the seat faces are truly lovely. The dash, on the other hand, has the outline of a Jaguar's panel, but the gauges, climate controls and audio controls just don't look or feel like they belong in a car of this distinction. The rich wood applique only serves to highlight the flat black plastic faceplates. Rear-seat legroom is snug, as it is in the Audi A4 and BMW 3 Series, and the front seats are narrow.
The X-Type partially resembles the full-size XJ, especially when viewed from the front. Jaguar wanted to make this car look like it costs twice as much as it does and, with continued improvements, it's getting closer to a more refined Jaguar appearance. Still, the rear quarter looks more Ford than Jaguar (Ford, after all, owns Jaguar), although upgrades to the exterior trim and new wheels help minimize this effect.
The X-Type includes a 3.0-liter V6, all-wheel drive, J-gated five-speed automatic transmission, automatic air conditioning, four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes (ABS), Dynamic Stability Control, power moonroof, 120-watt AM/FM stereo with CD, front and rear head-curtain airbags, front side-impact airbags, a front-knee airbag, eight-way power driver's seat, leather seats, tilt/telescopic steering wheel and 16-inch cast alloy wheels. Wagon models include Reverse Park Control, 17-inch wheels, rain-sensing wipers, driver's seat memory and a Premium Sound system.
Options include heated front seats, rain-sensing wipers (sedan), ten-way power driver's and passenger's seats with power-adjustable lumbar support, SIRIUS Satellite Radio, Bluetooth wireless technology, 18-inch wheels and tires, Alpine premium audio, Luxury package, Reverse Park Control (sedan) and DVD-based navigation system.
The 3.0-liter V6 is Ford's Duratec, and it's a more-than-capable engine for a family sedan such as the new Fusion, but it roars loudly at full throttle and feels out of place in a Jaguar. The engine does deliver its power generously at all speeds, and its fuel economy is decent, particularly considering the extra burden the added weight of the all-wheel-drive system imposes.
3.0-liter V6
227 horsepower @ 6800 rpm
206 lb.-ft. of torque @ 3000 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 18/24 (Sedan), 18/24 (Wagon)

"I have owned my 2007 X-type since new, Oct 2006, and it now has 112000 miles and 8 years of relatively aggressive driving in the four seasons in Maine. The car still gets far more "looks" than my wife's '10 Audi A4 and the chassis and suspension are still very tight, no notable difference from the day I purchased it. It rides buttery smooth yet provides excellent feedback, good reflexes, excellent on center feel, no body roll or any floaty feel, great climate control and a radio with the best reception of any car I have owned with zero static on the AM band, taught, well-damped suspension even driving triple digit speeds. I have thoroughly enjoyed the car and it has been extremely reliable. Other than routine maintenance (2 sets of tires, brakes and rotors twice (could have just replaced pads but I chose to replace the rotors with Raybestos vented all around), changed out all driveline fluids once and filled with Mobile one at 75k as well as the transmission flush with Redline D4 Synthetic ATF. I had to replace a brake booster (480 at dealer), a water pump (325.00 at local shop), tie rod ends and a throttle position sensor thingy. I consider 1200.00 in repairs over 9 years of hard driving and setting outside darn good. The chassis is completely rust free, paint still looks great, exhaust is still shiny steel and it the engine is very strong. It feels stronger than its rated 230 hp, albeit rather noisy when pushed to the red line. The 5-speed auto tranny is eager to upshift when left in normal mode in an effort to achieve good fuel economy. Placed in sports mode it holds the gears longer, not overly, and seems to be the better overall choice for 2 lane and city driving so I always leave it in sport mode, which it retains when shut down. Therefore, when you re-start it, whether it is 5 minutes or a week, it will retain the mode it was in when you last parked it, nice. All the interior pieces show no wear, the heated Connolly leather seats are wonderfully comfortable for my 5'7" frame and show no aging, fading, ripples nor creasing and the fronts are 8 way power. Rear seat room is fair, fine when setting behind me but tight if the fronts are slid way back, they too are comfortable save for bit short for good thigh support but it works out because your feet rest on the floor just right. The rear center armrest is nice and wide with two sturdy cup holders. It has all the right safety features and then some; dual stage front airbags and a drivers knee airbag, side impact bags and overhead full length side impact bags that come out of the roof, passenger side weight sensing front airbag that also compensates for the seat position, anti-lock brakes, emergency brake assist, electronic brake force distribution, all-wheel drive system that is essentially unstoppable in snow and performs at least as well as my previous 2000 A4 Quattro, traction control and stability control (both can be disabled allowing for spinning in heavy snow without cutting power, I find it useful getting up the 30 degree hill in a foot of snow in my 2/10 mile driveway) though I don't believe the stability control is fully disabled it does allow for aggressive off-ramp fun without interference. If left on it can be a bit overcautious as I have had it cut power during hard acceleration with a tad of oversteer on an uphill reducing radius off ramp a few times right at the apex exit. Top speed in mine is 145 give or take, which was surprising as I was sure that the computer would intervene as others had said there's' would cut out at 125. It was very stable with no floating and little wind buffeting. The 120-watt stereo sounds decent enough and I like the auto volume adjustment as speed increases. Reception is exceptional on both AM and FM bands with no electronic interference on the AM side, which I use frequently when commuting. It also has the Bluetooth phone module, which works without a hitch. For winter driving, the car has heated outside driver and passenger mirrors that work extremely well as do the heated windshield washer jets. The trunk is surprisingly large and is well fitted but lacks any storage compartments. I installed a couple of bins at the rear outside edges fastened with some Velcro to store such things as my bottle of fuel stabilizer and Marvel Mystery oil for use when buying fuel for my yard equipment. I also installed a stretchable net a couple feet from the rear to prevent groceries from sliding forward if a hard stop is required. To sum it up, because of the issues that plaque the early models sales plummeted and never recovered even though 2006+ models are as reliable as expected from any newer car. It can also be found at very attractive prices in the used car market and you can get a very nice highline car for the price of a Corolla yet is far more enjoyable to own. The car was also dinged for being a ford Mondeo yet it shares a mere 15 percent of Mondeo parts. It is fast, comfortable, tight, elegant, attractive, and rare. It garners attention from onlookers and it has been very reliable. I would have no reservations jumping in tomorrow and driving it to Salt Lake to visit my brother, cruising in complete comfort and confidence at 85 mph. With its resale now at about 7500.00, I have no intention nor reason to "upgrade" to a newer sports sedan as the Jag has and is a pleasure. I wish they had not discontinued it, as I would not hesitate to purchase a newer model when and if I get the inkling."

"While ford is a great American Car company, they are notorious for using cheap parts... things break and die far more often than any other vehicle I've owned...I just won't buy a 'Ford' (with the exception of a Mustang...they got that nearly right.). Only one repair since I've owned it. Fixed it myself and cost me less than $100.00... so that makes me happy. CD player quit working year three... interior cloth became unglued (prob from riding with the windows down. Wood grain panel cracked from the heat?!? Steering wheel had to be tightened year five. Front windshield is expensive and cracks easily. Battery is about $150.00 to replace, 3 years there. Tires wear easy... tried all brands/types but I think the Good year GTX is doing better than most others. Paint faded 5 years faster than my (ungaraged) Pontiac Firebird - under the same Arizona sun... and it was garaged daily. Not a great investment...go with a Lexus."

It's a heavy car, so you feel safe. Doors are not so heavy. Trunk is large. Driven for 8 years. No resale value so I'm keeping it. Car does not look like every other car out there, so it is easy to find."

Patented Oct. 27, 1953 DRAINAGE LEAF ATTACHMENT MEANS FOR LEAF TYPE FILTERS Reimer P. De Vries, Melrose, Mass., assigner to Revere Sugar Refinery, Boston, Mass., a corporation of Massachusetts Application October 25, 1950, Serial No. 192,075
1 Claim.
This invention relates to improvements in drainage leaf structures for lters of the leaf type.
In iilters of the Sweetland type, it has heretofore been the practice to attach each drainage leaf to the stationary upper body section of the filter by means of an endwise open or tubular outlet nipple adapted to be threaded into an outlet spud which is welded to a sheet metal outlet stamping to which the sheet metal binding or frame of the drainage leaf screen is likewise welded. The side walls of the outlet nipple are provided with discharge openings, which communicate through suitable connections with the filtrate manifold of the filter. 'Ihe outer open end of the outlet nipple is closed by a cap nut which screws onto the exteriorly projecting upper end of said nipple, which cap nut also serves as the means for aiiixing the nipple to the upper body section of the filter so as to suspend the drainage leaf attached thereto within the interior of the filter body. Attachment nipples so constructed and secured to a drainage leaf and to the upper body section of the filter are difficult to detach from said body section without risk of damage to the drainage leaf when it is desired to remove the latter from the lter. 'Io detach a nipple so constructed and secured, the cap nut must be first removed from the exterior end of the nipple by turning oli the former from the latter by means of a suitable wrench. It has been found, however, since there is no adequate way by which to hold the nipple against turning with the cap nut, if turning of the nipple occurs, the drainage leaf will turn therewith with likelihood of abutting an adjacent drainage leaf with resultant risk of deformation of the drainage leaf structures. The hinged bottom section of the lter being open when drainage leaves are to be removed, attempts have been made to manually hold the leaf, re-
` moval of which is desired, against turning. This,
however, does not avoid risk of drainage leaf deformation, but rather increases such risk, since stresses and strains are transmitted by the turning nipple to the outlet stamping ofthe leaf frame which are likely to distort or rupture the frame,
and also likely to cause deformation of the drainage leaf from its true flat shape. Rupture of the leaf frame, if it occurs, may destroy the leaf, or, in any event, make necessary costly and laborious Furthermore, if the drainage its faces become bulged out of normal flat plane,
Ythen proper coverage of the face areas of the drainage leaf by sluicing fluid is not obtained when cleansing deposits therefrom, thus decreasing the efficiency of the drainage leaf in use.
Having the above in view, it is an object of this invention to provide an improved construction of attachment and outlet nipple for a filter drainage leaf which can be so manipulated, when demounting the leaf from the filter body, that risk of damage to the leaf is avoided. To this end, the invention provides an outlet nipple structure which is provided at its exterior end portion with means, unitary therewith, by which it can be firmly held against turning when an external fastening nut is being turned off and removed therefrom to free the nipple for withdrawal, with the associated drainage leaf, from the body of the filter.
An illustrative embodiment of this invention is shown in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. l is a transverse sectional view of body parts to a filter in open condition, with a iilter leaf attached to the stationary upper body section of the filter by means of an outlet nipple structure made according to this invention, said iilter leaf and nipple being shown in elevation.
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary longitudinal sectional view of the iilter leaf and outlet nip-ple as attached to the stationary upper body section of the filter by the novel outlet nipple structure of this invention, said view being drawn on an enlarged scale; Fig. 3 is a transverse longitudinal sectional view, taken on line 3-3 in Fig. 2; and Fig. 4 is a side elevational view of the outlet nipple per se.
Similar characters of reference are employed in the above described views, to indicate corresponding parts.
Referring to the drawings, the reference character I0 indicates the stationary upper body section of a filter, such as a lter of the leaf type, to which upper body section is pivotally connected, by hinge means II, the movable lower body section I2 of the filter. The body sections I and I2 are adapted to be secured in operative closed together relation by releasable swing bolt devices I3. Integral with the top of the upper body section ID is a longitudinally extending external boss or rib Ill which is provided with longitudinally spaced perpendicular bores` l5 through which outlet nipples of the drainage leaves within the filter extend, and to which the same can be secured, whereby to support said drainage leaves in operative assembled relation to the filter body. Each bore I5 communicates through a port I6 in the side of the boss or rib I4 with suitable conduit means I'I leading to a longitudinally extending ltrate discharge manifold I8 which is mounted on the exterior of the upper body section I of the filter. Mounted within the interior of the upper body section I0 is an internal manifold IS through which, when desired, a sluicing liquid may be 'delvefedjf dischar'gv agai'st'the surfaces of tliediaiage leaves, and for other' purposes.

Awesome Read
Canavan continues her series with new characters in the time period of her first trilogy, but with the additional development of her world provided in the prequel Magician's apprentice. As always, her character development pulls the reader into the story lines and leaves you waiting to hear from them as if from old friends. This book is an amazing read. The only shortcoming will be the wait for her next installment in the series as this chronicle leaves many of her story lines hanging and the reader wanting more!
Great Addition!
Great continuation of the characters for Trudi's Original trilogy! Can't wait to read the next book!
Amazing book!!!
Sadly whole parts are missing, chapters cut off mid sentence and other chapter's are only one paragraph long. Needs to be fixed and a completed copy of the book should be provided to me, I payed $12 for half a book :(

Russian billionaire Oleg Deripaska has recently been the subject of a number of unflattering news accounts. An oligarch close to Valdimir Putin, Deripaska is a former metals trader who "survived the gangster wars in the post-Soviet aluminum industry."
Deripaksa ranked number 9 on this year's Forbes list of the wealthiest people, with assets of $28 billion. But it appears that the chaos in global financial markets has hit Deripaska hard. "Deripaska, the nuclear physicist turned post-Soviet corporate raider, has ceded more than a billion dollars in assets to jittery creditors as his aluminum-to-automobile empire reels," the New York Times recently reported.
Deripaska has spread plenty of money around the United States, especially in Washington, D.C., to try to win himself friends and influence. Foremost on his mind, it seems, is reversing a current visa ban that keeps him from entering the United States over concerns that he has ties to organized crime.
So how has Deripaska tried to woo Washington and gain a patina of respectability? Well, as has been previously reported, he used Rick Davis, John McCain's campaign chairman, to set up a meeting with McCain back in 2006. The Wall Street Journal (which has done a series of excellent pieces on Deripaksa) has reported on his ties to GlobalOptions Management, a Washington consulting firm.
Here are a few more details of Deripaska's PR offensive.
Through his holding company, Basic Element, Deripaska is a major donor to the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). According to the Council's website, Basic Element is a member of the "President's Circle," the second-highest corporate donor level.
Basic Element is sponsoring a series at the CFR on, of all things, "corporate governance." The series "will focus on the burgeoning trend of best-in-class companies originating from emerging market countries, and by virtue of their global reach and often unconventional business models, reinventing the nature of global competition."
Basic Element has also offered "generous financial support" to the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. Back in December 2005, Deripaska gave a speech at Carnegie entitled "Restructuring Soviet Enterprises: Challenges and Solutions." His funding for the think tank soon followed.
The talk started about 90 minutes late because Deripaska's private plane was delayed in New York, someone who was on hand told me. When he did turn up, Deripaska gave a brief PowerPoint presentation about his truck factory. "People were stunned," this person said. "There was nothing detailed about finance, foreign business, tariffs, or other subjects you would have expected to hear about."
Deripaska's event was hosted by Carnegie's Anders Aslund, who later offered this comment to the Washington Post about the Russian oligarch: "He's not the nicest in terms of law abidance. But he is by no means among the worst."
Deripaska has also bought himself a Harvard pedigree. Thanks to a contribution to the university, he serves as an International Council Member at Harvard's Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs.
Note also that Anders Aslund, incidentally, is now at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, where he recently wrote an incredibly flattering profile of former Ukrainian President Leonid Kuchma. "Kuchma looks good, much healthier than when he was in office," Aslund reports. "I asked him to characterize himself. True to his personality, he answered with one word: 'pragmatist'." Than came this penetrating follow-up question from Aslund to Kuchma: "What was your greatest deed?"
Peterson's board of directors includes Victor Pinchuk–Kuchma's son-in-law. Pinchuk emerged as an oligarch in the Ukraine during the controversial rule of Kuchma.

How pro-oil Louisiana politicians have shaped American environmental policy
In Havana, the past year has been marked by a parade of bold-faced names from the north — John Kerry reopening the United States Embassy; Andrew Cuomo bringing a delegation of American business leaders; celebrities ranging from Joe Torre, traveling on behalf of Major League Baseball to oversee an exhibition game between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Cuban national team, to Jimmy Buffett, said to be considering opening one of his Margaritaville restaurants there. All this culminated with a three-day trip in March by Barack Obama, the first American president to visit Cuba since Calvin Coolidge in 1928. But to those who know the city well, perhaps nothing said as much about the transformation of political relations between the United States and Cuba that began in December 2014 as a concert in the Tribuna Antiimperialista.

Phoenix lung cancer event hits close to home for former NFL player Hank Baskett
PHOENIX — Former NFL player Hank Baskett III is partnering with a local foundation to host a lung cancer walk and 5K race Sunday.
Money raised at the Feb. 9 event will go towards the Bonnie J. Addario Lung Cancer Foundation, which is also helping to put on the event at Papago Park near the Phoenix Zoo. Race time is 9 a.m.
Baskett said raising money is great, but that's not his main goal.
"The biggest thing is that we create awareness," Baskett said. "By having those people come out, join my team and walk beside me, that allows them to go back and tell their friends. It's just a snowball effect. One turns into two, two turns into for and so forth."
Baskett's father is fighting lung cancer. He said that the foundation has played a major part in that fight.
"It's been a tremendous blessing. Without their help, I don't know if my dad would be here today," Baskett said. "Their team of doctors and team of oncologists is amazing at what they do and is amazing at getting people help."
Baskett, who appears with his wife Kendra Wilkinson on the reality show "Kendra on Top," has formed his own team for the race and joining Care Basketts is open to the public.
To show his appreciation for those who participate in the race, Baskett will meet with fans, sign autographs and make himself available for photos at Salut Kitchen Bar in Tempe on Saturday night.
He'll also do the same for a few hours after the race.
Baskett played four seasons in the NFL with the Indianapolis Colts, Minnesota Vikings and the Philadelphia Eagles.

3 reasons to go back to school
When I graduated from college, I thought I was done with education forever. I had written my last paper and taken my last test. It was time for bigger and better things.
Over the next few months I learned a valuable lesson: Education wasn't done with me, yet. In fact, it was just starting to shape my character.
As human beings, we have an innate desire to grow and progress. Education is a major part of that progression. Education doesn't limit itself to K-12 grades and the traditional, four-year college experience. Some of life's most important lessons come from parents, apprenticeships, teamwork, and nearly every other situation in life. But there's no doubt that diplomas and degrees are highly valued in our society.
As Oscar Wilde said, "You can never be overdressed or overeducated." If you are hesitant to go back to school, whether it be to finish high school or pursue a Ph.D., perhaps one of the following reasons will provide the trigger you need to just do it.
1. Career advancement. This is the main reason people choose to go back to school. Some do so to establish more credibility in their field. Others, as a way to break into a new career. According to a New York Times article, those with college degrees have a much easier time finding work, period, and can earn up to twice as much as those without degrees. In this economic climate, not having a degree is a gamble most of us can't afford.
2. Personal growth. Some go back to school because they need something new and meaningful to work toward. School can be an expensive hobby, but even if you have to forgo buying a new car or take out a student loan, the sacrifices are worth it. The skills and intellectual stimulation you get from school stays with you and greatly adds to the person you become. You can't put a price on that.
3. For your children. Study after study has shown that children are more likely to go to college if their parents are university educated. Every parent wants her kids to reach for the stars and be happy. A good education opens up so many doors. If you make school a priority, your kids will notice and education will likely become a high priority for them, as well.
There are dozens of other good reasons to go back to school, but it's usually one of these three that prompts people to just grit their teeth and do it. I have heard many people say they wished they would have done more school, but not once have I heard, "I wish I wouldn't have gotten a degree."
With flexible schooling opportunities like online classrooms becoming more prevalent across the country, it is becoming easier than ever to go back to school, regardless of your age or family situation. The key is to make the decision then make a commitment to do the work necessary to realize your goal. You will be glad you did.

On the first night of summer, Jeremy Bowman of Lebanon wanted to go outside with his daughter and tend to their garden, but he said he couldn't because the smell was so bad. He described it as sulfuric and that it was so potent it burned his eyes.

If a racing team's success is measured in column inches or TV time, then Rahal Letterman Racing led the Indy Racing League for the last two years -- mainly thanks to the presence of media darling Danica Patrick.
"I think the drivers can really motivate and lead a team. I think I always did it as a driver, and I think the drivers really play a role that goes way beyond just driving the car."
-- Bobby Rahal
But using the traditional yardstick of race wins, the three-car team co-owned by Bobby Rahal and David Letterman has struggled in that time period. In fact, RLR's last race win came in 2004, when Buddy Rice was victorious three times, including at the Indianapolis 500.
Rahal Letterman wasn't the only team that struggled in 2006 after Penske Racing and Ganassi Racing gained access to the Honda engines that helped RLR and Andretti Green Racing dominate the IndyCar Series in 2004 and '05. But the cold hard fact is that RLR failed to even make the podium in 2006, and to make matters worse, The Franchise (Patrick) jumped ship to Andretti Green for '07 and beyond.
So Rahal and his management team, led by Scott Roembke, are regrouping and downsizing to a two-car effort. Patrick and Rice are out, but Jeff Simmons returns in the Ethanol-sponsored entry. He'll be joined by Scott Sharp, late of Fernandez Racing, with a new sponsor -- Patron tequila.
"It's a little bit of a change for us going back to two cars, but we think it's the right move for us," said team boss Rahal. "We've made a lot of changes internally at Rahal Letterman to ensure our success for this coming year. Scott and Jeff are leading the charge for us, and while it's never easy, I think we're going to have a much more successful year in 2007 than we have the last several."
Sharp drove one of Rahal Letterman's Dallara/Hondas at the recent IRL test at Iowa Speedway and the team came away impressed with the 38-year-old's attitude and aggression.
"I think we've already seen the kind of leadership that Scott can bring to our team in the test that was done in Iowa, and we're very excited," Rahal said. "The buzz in the race shop was great after that.
"I think the drivers can really motivate and lead a team," added the three-time CART Champ Car series champion. "I think I always did it as a driver, and I think the drivers really play a role that goes way beyond just driving the car. With Scott and Jeff, we've got two guys now that can provide that leadership."
Sharp is the IndyCar Series' most experienced driver with 129 IRL starts and nine wins. He was also the co-champion of the oft-forgotten inaugural three-race IRL championship back in 1996.
After a successful road-racing career, the Connecticut native broke into open-wheelers with PacWest Racing in 1994 in the CART series.
He's been with the IRL from the very start, driving for A.J. Foyt Enterprises and Kelly Racing before spending the last two years with Fernandez Racing. Sharp's last race win came at Kentucky Speedway in 2005.
"I almost started my open-wheel career with Bobby's team about 10 years ago when he had the factory Honda deal, and we've kept up the good relationship over the years," Sharp said. "He's always been one of the guys that I aspired to [be like] growing up. Obviously his record speaks for itself what he did in the car, but you always knew that he was just a different kind of driver beyond that. He had a very successful team, and at the same time, simultaneously built a tremendous business."
The key to Sharp's move to RLR was the Patron Spirits sponsorship package he brought. It's a somewhat surprising combination, given that Sharp is known as one of the more straight-laced drivers in the paddock.
"I enjoy the product, so that's always good," Sharp said. "Don't worry, Bobby, that will be away from the racetrack!
"I think we're going to have a lot of fun both on and off the track together. This is a team that's used to running at the front. They've won races with six or seven different drivers, they've won it with different chassis, different engines and even different series."
Simmons had the unenviable task of replacing Paul Dana after the Ethanol sponsorship architect was killed practicing for the 2006 IRL season opener at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Simmons, 30, responded with a series of improving performances in the second half of the season.
"Jeff really came on very well towards the end of the year," Rahal said. "Obviously, he had a rough start with us, but he had some difficult shoes to fill -- and he came in and with each race just gained more and more confidence.
"Obviously he's young and doesn't have quite as much experience as Scott, but I think the two of them are really going to work well together as a team and really produce the kind of results that we're working hard to create."
Simmons not only had to deal with the usual on-track worries that come with being a rookie, but he became the public face of the Ethanol promotional campaign. He's hoping that the continuity of entering a new season with the same supporting cast will result in a move into the top five.
"Obviously, it's great to be back," Simmons said. "Everybody around has been extremely supportive, both on the team and sponsor side. Ethanol is something that I've become very passionate about and excited to learn about.
"It's great to have Scott on board -- it can only help," he added. "A guy with his experience and his ability to win races is going to be a great thing for me and for the whole team, and we're all very excited."
And ready to make headlines by winning races again.

Cambridge Place Investment Management has sued dozens of banks and brokerages, including some of Wall Street's biggest names, alleging they misled the hedge fund about its investments in subprime mortgage-linked securities.
Cambridge Place, which is in the process of liquidating a trio of funds that invested in the subprime market, accused Bank of America, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, among others, of selling it $2.4 billion in securities including mortgages from a "small group of now notorious subprime mortgage originators." The Concord, Mass.-based firm said it lost half of its investment, alleging that the banks employed faulty appraisals and bogus loan applications to assure investors, facilitating an "environment of improper lending practices."
"The Wall Street banks conducted inadequate due diligence and failed to satisfy their own responsibilities," the hedge fund said in its lawsuit, filed in Massachusetts state courts on July 9.
Among the other banks listed as defendants are Barclays, Credit Suisse Group, Deutsche Bank, HSBC, Merrill Lynch and UBS.

ALEX BRUMMER: Troubled Euroland stumbles again towards economic precipice
The eurozone's stumble towards an economic precipice is not surprising. The recovery across the region has largely been in the peripheral nations in the 18-country currency union and they alone are far too small to fuel an expansion.
Any sustainable upturn has to come from the three bedrock economies of Germany, France and Italy, all of which face considerable problems.
Germany, the powerhouse of the region, represents 27.2 per cent of total output and has tipped into negative territory with the geopolitical tensions between Russia and Ukraine.
ECB chief: Mario Draghi promised in 2012 to do what was necessary to save the euro, but he is largely unable to act, writes Alex Brummer
Business confidence has plummeted for eight months in a row amid fears of a tit-for-tat trade war between the West and Moscow.
In France the belief by Francois Hollande's government that it could tax its way out of budget deficit problems proved hopelessly wrong. Enterprise has been stifled and the heavy hand of the state reaches into every sector of the economy from car production to energy.
Despite a robust manufacturing sector, Italy has stagnated, showing no signs of recovery from the Great Recession or the euro crisis of 2010.
The difficulty is that Brussels – and, to a lesser extent, the European Central Bank – has never fully recognised the scale of the crisis that hit the global economy in 2008-10.
Mario Draghi at the ECB promised in 2012 to do what was necessary to save the euro, but he is largely unable to act because of the belligerence of the German Constitutional Court.
It still sits on proposals for long-term refinancing operations (LTRO), the equivalent of the quantitative easing, or printing of money, that has helped the United States and Britain expand and sharply reduce unemployment.
Equally damaging has been the failure of the eurozone to mend its banking system. The two sets of stress tests carried out by the European Banking Authority turned out to be farcical and the task of policing the significant banks has been passed over to the European Central Bank.
German policymakers, including senior members of the Bundesbank, argue that the ECB should have no role in banking regulation and focus on the fight against inflation. Meanwhile, a crisis at Portuguese bank Espirito Santo has sent shock waves across the Continent and caused serious damage to Credit Agricole in France.
One of the lessons of the financial crisis was how important it was to fix the banking system quickly since it provides the lubricant to a recovering economy.
America was off the blocks very quickly and the UK banks gradually have returned to business as usual, funding consumers and businesses. Repairing Europe's banking system, still loaded down with over-valued sovereign bonds of the ClubMed, has barely begun.
The sharp fluctuations in the pound since the crisis may look to be destabilising. Sterling first fell 25 per cent and has since recovered by 14 per cent over the past year.
The flexibility offered by having control over our own currency has served the UK well and helped us to avoid the severe internal adjustment – such as cutting real wages by up to 50 per cent – seen in some peripheral economies.
If Europe remains in the eurozone straitjacket it at the very least will need to give the ECB the same freedoms as the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England to take emergency measures in times of crisis without having to report bank to political masters.
Smart thinking
Of all Britain's big grocers Asda is the one which has dealt most smartly with the discounters.
It recognised early on the challenge from Aldi and Lidl as well as newcomers in the fast-moving consumer goods market Poundland and B&M and acted appropriately. Asda eschewed the gimmicks of the Hudl, the vouchers, coupons and other marketing devices and concentrated on price, recognising that UK food margins – typically more generous than in other markets – would have to be savaged.
The firm delivered £1billion in price cuts and is now ruthlessly engaged in a television advertising campaign that targets Tesco and mocks its milk-led discount.
As a result Asda has managed a 0.5 per cent rise in same store sales in the latest quarter.
What helps is having a rich godfather in the shape of Wal-Mart. But some local street smarts were also necessary.
Bad call
During a weekend stay with friends in Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains in 1985, one suggested I invest in a few shares in Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway, which were then trading at $2,070 each.
At the time, the idea of shelling out so much on a single share seemed like madness. In latest trading the same shares soared above $200,000 each for the first time.

Hurricane Norbert has weakened to a strong Category 1 hurricane, with sustained winds of 90 mph. Norbert was once a powerful Category 4 storm, but is moving into an environment less favorable for the storm to maintain itself. Further weakening is expected, but will still give the Baja a good lashing of wind and rain this weekend.
Norbert's remnants will move northeast and impact the central portion of the US, with a good bout of rain.
