Zola punishes 10-man Bantams
Calvin Zola snatched a late 1-0 victory for Burton to break the hearts of 10-man Bradford.
The big striker ended stubborn resistance in the 80th minute after City had to battle against the odds following the dismissal of Ricky Ravenhill and the loss of centre-halves Luke Oliver and Andrew Davies to injury.
Visiting skipper Ravenhill was given his marching orders by referee Andy D'Urso in the 32nd minute of an otherwise tepid first half for violent conduct after a clash in the centre circle with Burton midfielder Lee Bell.
The first real chance of the game fell to the visitors in the 40th minute when a James Hanson header was deflected narrowly wide.
Billy Kee should have put Burton in front in added time at the end of the first half but poked a Damien McCrory cross wide.
The Brewers almost made their extra man count in the 55th minute when Jacques Maghoma's shot came back off the crossbar.
Kee then missed an even better chance to break the stalemate when he headed wide from close range in the 78th minute.
But Zola made no mistake when he met McCrory's cross with a dividing header inside the far post.

A fall can change your life. If you're elderly, it can lead to disability and a loss of independence. If your bones are fragile from osteoporosis, you could break a bone, often a hip. But aging alone doesn't make people fall. Diabetes and heart disease affect balance. So do problems with circulation, thyroid or nervous systems. Some medicines make people dizzy. Eye problems or alcohol can be factors. Any of these things can make a fall more likely. Babies and young children are also at risk of falling - off of furniture and down stairs, for example.
Falls and accidents seldom "just happen." Taking care of your health by exercising and getting regular eye exams and physicals may help reduce your chance of falling. Getting rid of tripping hazards in your home and wearing nonskid shoes may also help. To reduce the chances of breaking a bone if you do fall, make sure that you get enough calcium and vitamin D.

The emerald ash borer (EAB) is an introduced pest that is devastating our native ash trees. First discovered in Michigan less than a decade ago, it has killed tens of millions of trees so far in sixteen states. Many more trees are at risk if this invader is not contained.
While it is thought that the borer arrived in wooden packing materials brought in by ship or air, its spread within this country is usually the result of human activity. One important way the borer can be introduced to new areas is when people unwittingly move infested firewood to their property or to campgrounds, fishing spots, and parks as they enjoy these natural areas.
Educating the public about how to prevent the spread of this beetle is vital to protecting ash trees from destruction. Educating youth about this problem has a double benefit. Kids learn what they can do and can then take those lessons home to spread the word to their families, friends, and neighbors.
To help, the USDA has prepared educational materials specifically for summer camps and programs, scouting organizations, schools, and environmental education organizations working with youth from ages 8-12. The materials are ready to use, fun, engaging, and free!
At the Kid's Corner of the USDA's Stop the Beetle website, you can order a free Leader's Kit (or print it as a PDF) that includes a four page leader's folio and creative activities, including an origami-style trivia game to make and a group-oriented outdoor activity. Also available on the site are an animated video describing the EAB life cycle, an on-line memory game, and more printable activities. Other sections of the site include lots more adult-oriented information.

I'm 'Greedy' for Some Answers to My Questions
Lesson 15 of 15
Objective: SWBAT ask questions from the beginning, middle and end of a story and provide answers using text evidence.
- A Greedy Python by Eric Carle
- Brown Bear, Brown Bear by Eric Carle (to show demonstrating the style of writing that Eric Carle uses)
- Lesson vocabulary words from the Reading/Writing word wall: questioning, beginning, middle, end, literal, inferential, evaluative, words, illustrations
- 'I'm Greedy' worksheet
- 'Evaluative Questions' starters chart
- 'Literal & Inferential Question' starters chart
- 9x11 construction paper to glue on snake
- whiteboard set up
In this lesson, I'll have my students ask some deeper questions that really 'get to the heart' of the story. The Common Core Standards represent a shift in thinking toward reading. They require students to ask and answer questions to deepen their comprehension of the text as well as providing evidence for their answers with support from the text. (RL.2.1). Second graders are able to ask questions, but typically these are surface level questions that don't improve their understanding, and they usually are not able to provide concrete support for their answers. This lesson will help them use questions to deepen understanding and find evidence to support that understanding.
This is also a great opportunity for students to work on their fluency, rate and expression. These poems that are cyclical help kids read with feeling and develop a good rhythm, adding to their comprehension. (RF.2.4b)

Let's Get Excited!
Underlined words below are lesson vocabulary words that are emphasized and written on sentence strips for my Reading & Writing word wall. I pull off the words off the wall for each lesson, helping students understand this key 'reading and writing' vocabulary can be generalized across texts and topics. The focus on acquiring and using these words is part of a shift in the Common Core Standards towards building students' academic vocabulary. My words are color coded 'pink' for literature/'blue' for reading strategies/'orange' for informational text/'yellow' for writing/'green' for all other words)
- "Today I brought a book that many of you have read. Maybe you can tell me a quick summary about it."
- Show the Brown Bear book and let kids tell a quick summary
- "Eric Carle is a great writer because he uses wonderful illustrations to add meaning to his text. We can use both words and pictures to understand his stories."
- We'll be using our questioning strategy with another of his famous stories called The Greedy Python. I'll show you the story and you can make some predictions before we read.
This is the last lesson that I'm teaching as part of a questioning unit. My students are comfortable asking and answering the 3 kinds of questions (inferential, literal and evaluative). If you have not taught lessons about question writing, I encourage you to look at some of the earlier lessons so your students get some practice with writing and answering questions. These lessons include The Whys and Whens of Questioning about Literature, So What Do You Think, Using Evaluative Questions with Literature, Evaluative Questions-Pick Your Side and Argue, Questions Help Us See How Characters Develop, That Striking Language, Ask Questions About Those Illustrations and The 'What's' and 'Where's' of Literature.

Teacher's Turn
Explain the task
- "Questioning helps us to comprehend. Can you tell me how?" Prompt for ideas such as: we think about what is happening, we are active readers, we are close readers, we look at the words and pictures more closely, etc.
- "We've talked about the 3 kinds of questions." Refer to the words on the board. "Literal questions have answers in the text or pictures. Inferential questions have answers that you have to 'figure out' – use your best guess and background knowledge. With evaluative questions, you have to add your own opinion and tell what you think."
- "Today we'll use an Eric Carle story to ask some questions so we can understand it better. The worksheet I'll pass out has a snake. You'll cut out the snake and cut on the dotted lines. Each section needs a question. You can color it to show how you found the evidence to support your answer (red for illustration, orange for text, or yellow for both).
- "Let's read the first part of the book and then ask some questions in the beginning, middle and end of the story."
- Read through the page that says, "He quickly gobbled in one bite."
- "I want to use lots of different question words and kinds of questions, so let me look at my 'Evaluative Questions' starters chart and the 'Literal & Inferential Question' starters chart. Remember we are asking questions to help us understand better so make sure they are harder questions that make us 'think', not just easy questions that everyone knows!!" This is what it sounded like when we talked about identifying questions that aid comprehension.
- "'Why do you think the the snake is colored?' – That's an evaluative question because it's my opinion, but the text says 'hidden in the jungle'. I'll write the question on my snake piece and color it orange for 'text'. Here's the whiteboard looked like as we practiced.
- "Here's one more question…. 'Where is the snake?' The illustration shows him in a tree so I'll write the questions and color it red. This is the modeling discussion about questions and colors.
Guided practice
- "We'll try one together…". This is a demonstration of the guided practice.
- "What else did the frog eat? There are words and pictures so I'll write that and color it yellow." Here's the completed whiteboard.
Resources (7)
Students Take a Turn
Assign the task
- "Now its your turn… we'll read the middle of the story."
- Read through the page that says "And when they all…
- "Take a few moments to write 3 more questions. Make sure they use different question starters. Refer to the chart. "Your questions should help you understand the story better. Color them to show how you find the answers based on the colors we talked about."
- Remind students to use different questioning words and keep the pieces in order.
- Read to the end of the book and have them write 3 more questions, like this student who was working.
Formative Assessment
- Students will finish all the questions and color. Here's a completed worksheet.
- Walk around and check with students as they work. Here's how I use formative assessment and asked students what they're doing.
- Prompt students to use questions to help them understand better. This is one of our discussions about separating out questions that help.
Resources (4)
Share What You've Learned
Reflect and Share:
- "Now you've created a summary of the story. Let's cut apart the snake pieces and glue the questions pieces on the big paper to make the snake." This is a completed project.
- "Let's talk for a minute about your questions. ..
- "Who had the most 'yellow questions'? "Who had the most…. (orange and red) questions? Did the illustrations or text provide more support for your questions? Why do you think that's true?"
- "Who can share how the questions helped them understand?"
- "Would anyone like to share their snake?"
Scaffolding and Special Education: This lesson could be scaffolded up or down, depending on student ability.
Students may need prompting on a whiteboard or to work with the teacher to write the questions. It can be very difficult for students with language challenges to write questions, so the teacher should monitor their progress carefully. Individualize for students - ask them why they chose answers and where they found the answers. Here's how I individualized instruction with a student who has speech challenges.
Students with more language abilities should be challenged to use some of the higher level vocabulary in the book, including 'gobbled', 'creature' and 'monstrous'.

To make your cat's day, set up a birdfeeder outdoors and then provide your feline with a comfortable, sunny window seat to watch the avian action.read more
With the turn of every year, countless people resolve to improve their health by losing weight, exercising and more. The vast majority breaks those promises and ends up disappointed. So rather than subject yourself to another year of self-defeat, why not resolve to improve the health of your cat instead? Below are a handful of both timely and timeless ideas to choose from.
1. Assess your choice of cat food. As your cat ages, its nutritional needs will change. "Aging brings with it physiological changes. Some are obvious, others are not," says Dr. Amy Dicke, a technical services veterinarian for Iams. "Skin and hair coat changes may be obvious, while lean muscle mass loss and digestive or immune system failure may be less evident or hidden." The science behind today's cat food has gotten specific enough that there are different blends for almost any situation. Talk to your vet about whether your cat is due for a change.
2. Upgrade your cat's ID tag. The classic heart-shaped metal collar charm may help your cat get returned if it wanders away, but technology allows for so much more. Dr. Patricia Joyce of New York City Veterinary Specialists says, if possible, to use a GPS tracker that allows you to find your cat wherever it is. Another option is a QR code tag, like those offered by PetQRTag. The tags are the same size as a regular ID tag but are not as constrained by space. They point a person to a Web page that can hold as much information as you'd like to give, from contact info to special medical issues your cat has. As your cat ages and your contact information changes, the tag never needs to be replaced.
3. Hop on the social media bandwagon. Social media sites like Facebook and Twitter can help you diagnose and work through potential health problems. A standout is PetPop.com, where pet owners create profiles and link up. In the PetPop Healthy section, a panel of veterinary experts fields questions from site members and provides advice.
4. Enrich your cat's environment. Scientific evidence continues to show that when a cat is stressed, it can get sick. The good news is that the same scientific data has now shown that an enriched environment can help prevent illness. "Happy cats are healthy cats, and their environment plays a role in that," says Dr. Tony Buffington, a professor of veterinary clinical sciences at Ohio State University. "There's now good evidence for this."
5. Don't ignore dental health. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, periodontal disease is the most diagnosed problem in cats. But it doesn't have to be that way. "Dental disease is one of the most preventable conditions in veterinary medicine," says Dr. Katy Johnson Nelson, a veterinarian in Arlington, Va., who is a member of the Iams Pet Wellness Council. Schedule an appointment with your cat's doctor for a teeth cleaning, and start doing brushing on your own as well.
6. Get pet health insurance. Sometimes even the best prevention can't stop disease or an accident, and veterinary bills can add up quickly. It can put pet owners in the most difficult of positions: You either set yourself up for extreme financial hardship, or consent to putting your cat down. Health insurance allows an alternative. Thanks to more modest monthly premium payments, decisions to undergo costly procedures are easier to make.
So this New Year's, let yourself off the hook and make a resolution for your cat. Whether you opt for the tried-and-true or the timely and trendy, following through with just a few of these tips can make a world of difference.

text: Kidney Cancer Kidney cancer is the third most common cancer of the urinary tract. When detected early it is curable --with treatment it has an 81 percent five year survival rate. At the Legacy Cancer Institute we offer the comprehensive services needed to treat kidney cancer - interventional radiology, surgery, chemotherapy, rehabilitation and patient support. Award-winning care Legacy ranks among the nation's top cancer programs and has received multiple quality awards including the 2010 Outstanding Achievement Award from the American College of Surgeons' Commission (ACS) on Cancer. The ACS ranks Legacy's cancer program as one of the best in the nation. Treatment There are several ways to treat kidney cancer depending on its progression. Treatment options may include surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation. Patients often receive a combination of treatments. Surgery Partial nephrectomy is the removal of the diseased part of the kidney only and preserves kidney function. This surgery can be performed laparoscopically using our robotic surgery method or by traditional methods. Nephrectomy is surgery to remove the entire kidney with or without removal of the lymph nodes. Interventional radiology Thermal Ablation: Renal cryoablation is a minimally invasive procedure that uses cold energy to destroy the cancerous tissue in the kidney. Ablation is usually an outpatient procedure although some patients may stay overnight. This treatment may be an option for solid tumors or people who are not good candidates for surgery Active surveillance Instead of receiving immediate treatment, patients are followed closely to see if the cancer grows or gets worse. At that point, treatment options can be discussed. Chemotherapy Radiation therapy Most often radiation is used to ease the symptoms of advanced or metastatic kidney cancer to treat problems caused by the cancer's spread to the brain or bone. Physician case review Our multidisciplinary cancer care conferences review complex cases to provide an expert "second opinion" on diagnosis, pre-treatment evaluation, staging, treatment strategy and rehabilitation. The team includes medical oncologists, pathologists, radiation oncologists, radiologists, surgeons, nurses, research coordinators and other cancer care staff. You're not alone At the Legacy Cancer Institute we offer services to support every aspect of your treatment including your physical, emotional, social and spiritual well-being. We offer a wide range of support services to help you and your family. If you need help just ask us, and we'll help you find the support you need. Nurse navigators Our personalized support services begin with our nurse navigators. They will help you throughout your treatment, from knowing what to expect to finding the right support services and helping you manage symptoms and treatment side effects. Contact a nurse navigator In addition, the following support services are also available: Integrative care through our Cancer Healing Center Cancer rehabilitation Our Providers Surgeons (urologists) Sajal Dutta, M.D. Michael Kaempf, M.D. Bruce Lowe, M.D. Greg McCoy, M.D.

Probably the greatest significance of Norm Macdonald's
nike roshe run melbourne
Hitler's Dog comes with the sparklingly succinct way Macdonald answers nike free 50 2014 black and white
, at least from a comedian's perspective, by situating some of the most repugnant and inflammatory remarks possible in the mouth of a made-up character, the titular dictator's canine. Of course onstage it's just Macdonald, in a suit humbly paired with dad sneakers, speaking the corrosive words. So, silly though they sound, with the wrong edit you might mistake them for Macdonald's own views. "This is why we ask that you don't use recording devices," Macdonald says as a bumper to the bit.
Macdonald seems to be suggesting comedy comes from the same pocket of theatrical what-if as fiction or song, a hypothetical place, and shouldn't be confused for advocacy—or anything to be argued with. You can find a song or a movie's content objectionable, no doubt, but don't treat it like it's really real ; that Macdonald manages to communicate this without either polemic or defiance is an achievement of restraint.
Macdonald has worked in similar material before, like on Dennis Miller's radio show when he toyed with the idea of a Holocaust-denying ventriloquist's dummy, but here Macdonald folds the routine in with further explorations into the nature of reality, honesty, or the difference between immediate experience and imagination—so that the playing with masks gains in this case an added dimension in quite philosophical terrain.
For example, early in the special Macdonald muses on the existential horror of compulsive honesty, prompted by George Washington's boyhood myth of the cherry tree. Later he revisits the struggle to tell the truth with a novel approach: "I thought of a way of not lying and I'll share it with you if you like," Macdonald says. "You can tell the truth, word for word absolutely true, but when you do it you use a sarcastic accent." It becomes a gag about identity theft and heinous crimes all concealed by such a facetious "confession"—but again and again, between bits about autoerotic asphyxiation or the Six Million Dollar Man's hearing aid, Macdonald returns to the subject of how arrangements of language and this interplay between literal and deceptive truths shape our minds' interpretation of the world.
SPANK rebuilds the wheel and releases new saddles and grips
By Amos Horn
In recent years wheels have gotten stiffer and bikes have gotten plusher. Riders are running wider tires at lower pressures and riding more aggressively on rougher trails. Taking all of this into account, SPANK decided it was time to change the wheel. Meet the SPANK SPIKE 350 Vibrocore for DH and freeride and the SPANK OOZY 350 for trail, all mountain and enduro.
The OOZY 350 will be available as rims in both 27.5-inch and 29-inch sizes for $100, or as a complete wheelset for $650.
With the widening trend found in rim widths, the profile has also gotten deeper. SPANK turns this on its head with both of its new wheels, featuring a much reduced profile while keeping the rims wide. Both rims feature a 17-millimeter sectional profile height, down from the more conventional 22-millimeter height found on many alloy rims. Both new rims will have a 35-millimeter outer width and a 30.5-millimeter inner. According to SPANK's tests, this lower and wider profile is showing around 30 percent more radial compliancy compared to a more conventional alloy rim - radial compliancy being the wheels inward and outward (up and down) deformation radially from the center.
A shallower profile in a wider rim promises a better ride.
Now that we've got that out of the way, how does it translate to what we are all here for - the riding? Outside of the machine-built, bermed-out highways that are popping up everywhere, most trails I have ridden have square rocks, off-camber roots or some sort of obstacle just waiting to knock my front wheel off course and send me over the bars when I least expect it. According to SPANK, with their new profile this would happen less often. Instead of jumping off the intended line, the extra radial flex in SPANK's lower and wider rims move with the rider's momentum and the bike's forward direction. In other words, the wheels will track better laterally due to an increase in radial (vertical) compliance.
All this talk of flex might have you thinking these new hoops are a step backward from the stiff carbon rims everybody raves about. But these rims only have claimed extra flex inward and outward from the center - the good kind of flex. Lateral stiffness and torsional strength are reportedly increased with the new profile, keeping the wheel true and reducing chances of the dreaded taco.

How to start an automatic watch?
It's very important to wind an automatic watch properly, prior to its use. The initial wind provided may only last a short while, making the watch appear defective once it stops ticking. To ensure your watch functions to the fullest of its capabilities, wait for it to stop and then wind the watch counter-clockwise 15-20 times. Next, push the crown back, screwing it down to preserve the water-resistance. *Be mindful that excessively winding the watch may cause damages to the movement, so don't overdo it. Unlike self-winding watches, the crown doesn't need to be wound on quartz models. If it still isn't ticking, simply bring it by for a battery replacement.
Why the watch is running slow?
A watch can lose time for various reasons including, but not limited to a dying battery, which will cause the second-hand to begin jumping across several seconds at once instead of passing each individually, magnetization, causing tension between small parts within the movement and natural friction from the watch being worn. If the watch is a mechanical model (Automatic or Manual-wind) this can also be a sign that the watch needs to be overhauled.
How to use a chronograph?
Operating a Chronograph requires using the pushers on the side of the case. The top pusher is used to start and stop the chronograph hand while the one at the bottom is used to reset it. Once the top pusher is pressed, the hand will run continuously, which you can track using the accompanying sub-dial. In order to reset the chronograph, it has to be stopped first. Otherwise the button will do nothing when pressed.
How to set the date & time?
Whether you have a screw or push-down crown, setting the date and time is simple. If its a screw-down, unscrew it by turning it downward, counterclockwise prior to following these steps. Pull out the crown to the first integer to operate the date alone, allowing the time to continue ticking. Pulling the crown out farther, you're then allowed to adjust the time, which also shifts the date after each 24-hour cycle. Once you have your watch set, simply push the crown back in all the way and screw it fully closed to preserve its water-resistance. *Do not change the date when the watch is between 10PM-2AM because the movement can be damaged.
How to ensure the watch is waterproof?
For a watch, water is the worst enemy. To make sure you protect your watch properly check these factors before wearing it. First, see what kind of crown you have. If it is a push-down crown the watch is definitely not waterproof, but water-resistant. If the watch has a screw-down crown, then it may be waterproof, but you should check your model's specifications to be sure. *Most importantly, no matter what kind of crown you have, you should check the watch for damages to the case, which will allow water to reach the movement regardless of whether the crown is closed or not. However, if you have any doubts, its best to have the watch water-tested, which will give you a conclusive result.

Additionally, if the prize is behind one of the doors you did not choose, the opened door will always be the 3rd door.
No, this isn't part of the problem and it isn't necessary for the end result. The only part that's important is that the host always pick a door with a goat behind it.
The wikipedia page attempts to provide some explanations.
I think that is what I tried to (poorly, apparently) convey, that the host would never open the prize door.


text: Farmland Dairies Closing New Jersey Plant December 19, 2013 02:53 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Associated Press Email Source: Associated Press Some 323 employees at a milk-processing plant in northern New Jersey have gotten pink slips just before Christmas. Farmland Dairies will close the plant in Wallington and produce its products at other plants. The announcement comes two months after nearby Consolidated Dairies went out of business in a legal dispute with Farmland, costing 138 jobs. Union official Joe Fontano tells The Record newspaper they're good-paying union jobs with job benefits that are going to be lost. Bruce Krupke of the Northeast Dairy Foods Association says consumers are drinking less milk and the industry is feeling the pressure. Back to news

The gates have been lifted and CES2012 is finally underway in Las Vegas. Tens of thousands of press and tech enthusiasts have taken to the show floor to see what companies have to show off this year.
Those who've stopped by Intel's booth were treated to a new smartphone reference design that was much improved over their previous design, which looked remarkably similar to an iPhone. The device at Intel's booth is running on their Atom Z2460 processor, a single-core chipset clocked at 1.6GHz. Intel's reference design is running a stock version of Android 2.3 Gingerbread and also features an Intel Graphics Media Accelerator, 4-inch display, NFC capability, an 8 megapixel rear camera and a 1.3 megapixel front-facing camera.
The reference design is not marketed directly to consumers; rather, it serves as a reference model for handset makers such as Motorola, HTC and Samsung to use to develop their own smartphones based on Intel's processors instead of the usual ARM suspects. Intel is attempting to make its way into the smartphone market and aims to convince a few of the big players to develop devices with Intel's innards.
We'll stop by the booth a bit later and ask if they'll let us run a few benchmarks to see how their concept phone compares to the current crop of devices. Previous tests indicate that Intel could give even Tegra 3 a run for its money. Meanwhile, let us know what you think about the reference design phone and/or about Intel's move into Android.

SUNSET BEACH, Oahu/Hawaii (Friday, December 2, 2011) — Hawaii's John John Florence has stood on the sand here at Sunset Beach watching the crowning of surfing champions since he was 6-years-old. Today, at 19, he stood on the podium, having realized his childhood dream of winning the Vans World Cup at Sunset Beach, and taking the lead on the coveted Vans Triple Crown presented by Rockstar Energy Drink series ratings. It was an overwhelming victory for Florence, who surfed in his first Vans Triple Crown event at the tender age of 12.
Today was also a dream come true for the Vans family, who brought John and the Florences into the fold when he was eight years old. At that time they recognized a child with prodigious talent, a gentle nature, and a genuine appreciation for the ocean and the fortunate opportunities it represented.
"Vans has a long tradition of family, from the Van Dorens to the Florences, and John has been part of our family since he first learned to surf," said Doug Palladini, Vans' VP of Marketing. "We are so proud of what John accomplished today, what he has done to live up to his potential this year, and we marvel at the possible impact he will ultimately have on surfing beyond his 19th year."
In the final, Florence led a spectacular tube-riding battle in perfect 10-foot surf against Michel Bourez (Tahiti, 2nd), Adam Melling (Australia, 3rd), and Hank Gaskell (Maui, 4th) to win $40,000. His two-wave heat total of 17 points (9.5, 7.5) eclipsed the field, leaving the other three in need of a two-wave combination of scores to overtake the lead.
Florence began his Vans Triple Crown campaign two weeks ago at Haleiwa, where he placed fifth. The third and final leg of the Vans Triple Crown now awaits him on his home doorstep at Pipeline. The Billabong Pipe Masters will get underway on December 8. Florence began his 2011 campaign at the Banzai Pipeline in February, winning the 5-star Pipeline Pro. From there, he leapt off onto the global ASP tour with hopes of securing a berth among the elite Top 32. He has achieved that, now ranked 19th in the world.
"I'm having fun, I surf for a living and that's a dream in itself," said Florence.
"This is my first 6 star Prime win, it's at home, it's one of my home breaks and all my family and friends are here, so it's one of the best moments of my life, for sure. It means everything. I've watched these guys since I was so little growing up here and coming to events when I was six years old, getting their autographs."
On the upcoming Pipe Masters: "I live right there at Pipe and I surf there almost every day in all conditions. Its going to be fun, for sure."
There was as much adrenaline on the beach as there was on the waves for the final. Sunset turned on like a giant wave machine, pumping out a succession of rides that saw every finalist get barreled. But Florence's performance was astounding; he covered an expansive lineup seemingly picking off waves at will with every one of them offering an impossible amount of tube time. Bourez and Melling fought hard to catch him in the 30-minute final. At one point, Melling found himself inside a game-changer of a tube ride, traveling for more than 100 yards and disappearing for six seconds, but he failed to emerge through the curtain of whitewater. After his runner-up finish at Haleiwa, and his third here today, Melling is ranked second on the Vans Triple Crown ratings and will follow John John to Pipe.
"It would have been good to go one better than the last contest, but I guess that's how it is," said Melling, from Australia's Lennox Head. "But if there's barrels and John John's around I'm sure he's in them somewhere."
On his tube ride that was the longest of the final: "It wasn't that great! I didn't make it! But it would have been good. I was coming through it, I raced, and I got through one hard bit and then just into the next and it dropped out on me. I thought I had it there for a little bit. It would have been nice to come out of it.
"The Triple Crown means everything. Since I was young coming over here I've always wanted to win it, which would be amazing. Last year I did alright out at Pipe but I'm guessing this year's going to be a little bit different. I think it's going to be big Pipe. I'll have to get out there this week and get a bit of practice in."
Bourez is the most successful Tahitian surfer in the 29-year history of the Vans Triple Crown of Surfing. A former champion of the Reef Hawaiian Pro at Haleiwa, his powerful surfing style is a natural fit for the North Shore's famous winter waves. Now rated third on the Vans Triple Crown rankings, and headed to Pipe, 2011 has seen him reach a new high.
"It's such a good feeling just to be on the stage right now, to have made the final with all the boys," said Bourez. "I'm just glad to be on tour and be in the final with them today.
"My first wave, oh my god, that was a bomb. Just right at the end I didn't make it and I thought if I made that one, it was close to a 10 maybe. To start the heat with a 10 would have put so much pressure on the others, but it didn't happen."
Fourth-placed Hank Gaskell is an underdog fairytale. A quiet achiever who doesn't travel on the tour, Hank lives for waves like those he rode at Sunset today. From the neighboring island of Maui, Gaskell found his way into the Triple Crown by virtue of winning the local Hawaii series this year. He made good on the opportunity and now gets his second wildcard to Pipeline.
"This is really special to me," Gaskell said. "I'm going to remember this for the rest of my life. I've never done this well in the Triple Crown before so I'm so happy to do this good and make a final. Now Pipe. I've got to get psyched for that. I think I'm ready. I've surfed in Pipe twice before, not in a few years tho so I'm really happy to be back in that event. I've had a little luck and put in a lot of hard work, so it's paying off. I'm proud of myself."
Brazil's Raoni Monteiro, the defending champion of this event, lost out in the semi-finals to Florence and Gaskell, placing equal 7th overall.
Florida's Evan Geiselman, 18, was eliminated in the round of 32 today but emerged as the JN Automotive Rookie of the Vans Triple Crown – a prestigious title that signals a stellar surfing future.
The Vans Triple Crown of Surfing presented by Rockstar Energy Drink is a three-event series staged on Oahu's North Shore. It is famous for its three equally challenging venues of Haleiwa, Sunset Beach and Pipeline that represent the ultimate test of a surfer's ability. To win the Vans Triple Crown is second only to winning the ASP World Title.

Oakland City Hall

Oakland, CA
Get directions »
The City and Oakland and the Financial Planning Association of the East Bay invite you to volunteer at the Oakland Financial Planning Day. The concept is simple – local CFP® professionals will volunteer to provide one-on-one counseling and to present financial planning workshops to area residents. The benefits are plentiful – providing needed financial information to your community and raising awareness of the importance of financial planning.
At the event, volunteers will be seated at tables and will meet one-on-one with one individual or one couple at a time to address their financial questions and concerns. Selected volunteers will also conduct classroom-style workshops which will run concurrent with one-on-one sessions.
The Financial Planning Day is intended to be a free benefit for the public, and volunteers are not allowed to solicit business, distribute business cards or marketing materials, or follow up with attendees. In other words – there are no strings attached for the attendees. Instead, attendees who wish to seek professional financial planning services after the event may follow up with volunteers they met with using the volunteer directory that will be provided in the event handout.
To register to volunteer as a financial planner at the event, please complete the online registration form located on this page. Participation is open only to CFP® professionals in good standing with CFP Board and seats will be assigned on a first come first served basis. After your registration has been received, a local representative will contact you with additional information and instructions.
For additional information about the event, please refer to the FAQ tab above.
Please complete the registration form to register as a financial planner volunteer. After your registration has been received, we will contact you with more information.
Please note the following important information:
All financial planner volunteers must be CFP® professionals in good standing with CFP Board and must commit to volunteering during the entire time the event is open.
All volunteers are required to review the Pro Bono Boot Camp, consisting of an online presentation designed to train and prepare volunteers for their participation.
Online registration is closed. Members of the public can still attend by simply walking in and registering onsite.
We hope the following information helps answer your questions about the Financial Planning Day. If you have a question not answered here, please feel free to contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
- What should I bring to the Financial Planning Day?
- What is the dress code?
- Why am I not allowed to distribute business cards or marketing materials?
- What financial planning topics will I be discussing with attendees?
- How much time will I spend speaking with each attendee?
- How many attendees will I speak with at one time?
- Will my expenses for volunteering be covered?
What should I bring to the Financial Planning Day?
You are welcome to bring a battery-powered calculator or laptop, but please note that wireless internet connection may not be provided. A notepad and a pen will be provided.
What is the dress code?
Business casual attire is recommended.
Why am I not allowed to distribute business cards or marketing materials?
The Financial Planning Day is organized to increase public awareness of the importance of financial planning and to offer pro-bono access to competent and ethical financial planning to those who may not otherwise seek it. We hope to educate consumers that financial planning is more than investment sales or an insurance policy, and to provide a starting point for those consumers who are intimidated at the thought of committing to an ongoing financial planning engagement. Attempting to form a planner-client relationship or attempting to sell any products or services during the event would defeat the very purpose of the Financial Planning Day.
Although volunteers are not allowed to distribute business cards or marketing materials, volunteers' names and contact information will be included in the event handout provided to attendees. So, it is possible that someone you spoke with may contact you after the event.
What financial planning topics will I be discussing with attendees?
Attendees will be informed that all volunteers hold the CFP® certification and are well-qualified to discuss a wide variety of financial topics. You are welcome to discuss any financial planning topics that you are comfortable discussing.
How much time will I spend speaking with each attendee?
To make the Financial Planning Day experience available to as many attendees as possible, conversations will be limited to approximately 15 minutes, whenever necessary. You are welcome to extend the conversation beyond 15 minutes if there aren't any attendees waiting for a volunteer.
How many attendees will I speak with at one time?
During one-on-one counseling, you will assist one individual or one couple at a time. If you are presenting an educational workshop, you will be speaking to groups of individuals.
Will my expenses for volunteering be covered?
While breakfast, lunch and refreshments may be provided for volunteers, other expenses, such as travel and lodging will not be covered.
Unless otherwise noted, the content, program names and related elements are owned collectively by the Financial Planning Days Consortium.
CFP® professionals volunteering as financial planners at Financial Planning Days are required to review the Pro Bono Boot Camp.
The Boot Camp consists of a 50-minute online presentation and an accompanying handout.
Information in the Boot Camp will help prepare you for the Financial Planning Day and help you get the most out of your experience as a volunteer. After you review the presentation and the handout, you will have satisfied the volunteer Boot Camp requirement.
If you would like to be a volunteer but have not yet registered, you can begin by finding an event near you.
Important Note
CFP® professionals who complete the Boot Camp may qualify to receive one Continuing Education (CE) credit from CFP Board at no cost. The CE credit is available only to CFP® professionals who have not already received CE credit for this course in their current certification cycle.
In order to receive the CE credit, you must pass an online exam testing your understanding of the content in the Boot Camp. The exam is available here. Before you can take the exam, you will need your CFP Board ID Number and the code from the Boot Camp online presentation.
Upon passing the exam, The Foundation for Financial Planning will process the CE on your behalf with CFP Board and you will receive your credit as of the date you passed the exam. Reports are sent to CFP Board twice a month. If your certification expires at the end of the current month, we encourage you to self-report the credit using CFP Board's website to avoid any penalties CFP Board may apply for not renewing your certification on time.
The Foundation will also notify you if you did not pass the exam. You are allowed to take the exam a maximum of two times. If you do not pass the exam on your second try, no CE will be awarded for this program.
If you have any questions regarding the Boot Camp, please contact Amira Tart at the Foundation for Financial Planning at email@example.com.

The Waynesville golf team continues to take big steps forward as a team as they finished second in a triangular meet at Fort Leonard Wood
FORT LEONARD WOOD — In match originally scheduled for March 27, the Waynesville Tigers golf team played a triangular match against Jefferson City and Belle at Piney Valley golf course on Fort Leonard Wood.
The Tigers finished in second place with a score of 214 while the Jefferson City Jays took the top spot with a 173. Belle wound up in third with a score of 233.
Waynesville was led by junior Wade Howser who shot a 42 on his way to his second consecutive team medalist honor.
The low score of the match was Gabe Trowbridge of Jefferson City who had a 37.
Waynesville coach Rube Dowell said he was pleased with the progress his varsity squad is showing.
"The varsity cut 21 strokes off of its last match," Dowell said.
Of course, part of that is due to getting junior Jacob Morriss back from an illness, Dowell said. Morriss had a strong day with 50 strokes.
Other scores were freshman Fred Boone 61, Austin Adams 68 and James Richardson 61.
The junior varsity match was just between Jefferson City and Waynesville as Belle does not have a JV team.
The Jays won that matchup as well with a score of 221 to 254.
"They have also made very positive progress as they cut 12 strokes off of their last match score," Dowell said.
Evan McWilliams led the JV Tigers with a personal best score of 62.
Isaac Brooks had a 63, Dylan Reynolds shot a 64, John Pack 65 and Kevin Barrett 69.

Big Bang "We Might Have Disbanded If Not for Daesung and G-Dragon's Incidents"
As we reported earlier, G-Dragon and Daesung will appear on the February 20 episode of "Healing Camp" and talk about their respective "incidents" for the first time on a talk show.
More details were released about the episode. The Big Bang members gathered together at a "pig skin" restaurant. Big Bang stated, "When we were trainees we didn't have money to buy meat so we would eat pig skin instead."
Big Bang stated, "It had been 5 years since we debuted and we were beginning to lose our focus. We were under the 5th year jinx that all idol groups go through. After 2011 we had a lot of things to look back on and learn. The ties between the members have become stronger. If it wasn't for the 'incidents' we might have broken up."
In the official preview that was released G-Dragon briefly said "Axis of Evil." He is probably describing what people thought about him. Daesung was shown saying, "I shouldn't have thought that way but I had bad thoughts. I thought that this was the end."
During the preview it was shown that the other members talked about "Daesung Likes Being Naked." (Indecent Exposure) Also the other subject talked about was "G-Dragon's Secret Global Friends."

Singer-songwriter Bret Michaels has listed his place in a gated Calabasas community for $3.649 million.
Although the 6,797 square feet of light and bright interiors come across as a family home rather than a hangout for a rock star, the accents include guitars, a grand piano and religious iconography. Built in 2006, the Mediterranean-inspired two-story features vaulted ceilings, formal living and dining rooms, a media room, an office and a family room.
The master suite contains a sitting area, dual walk-in closets, a balcony, dual bathrooms and a gym for a total of five bedrooms and seven bathrooms.
Michaels, 52, made his mark fronting for the big-hair...

Students enrolled in the MD Program at Wake Forest School of Medicine (WFSM) are led by Interim Dean, Julie Freischlag, MD, and taught by nearly 1,100 full-time faculty members and 550 part-time teachers. The goals of WFSM remain the same as they were in 1902, the year the School of Medicine was founded: teaching excellence in clinical medicine, promoting strong clinical and basic research, rendering exemplary patient care and stressing service to the community. Each July, 120 students are enrolled in the first year class.
The MD Program's spirit of excellence is shared by the WFSM Physician Assistant (PA) Program and programs offered at the Wake Forest University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.
The PA Program at Wake Forest School of Medicine is a graduate level program with a unique history of curricular innovation. Graduates of the PA Program complete a 24-month course of study and are awarded the Master of Medical Science (MMS) degree. One class of 64 students is enrolled in early June each year.
Programs at the Wake Forest University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences offer a number of opportunities for innovation, collaboration and discovery. The Graduate School's small size (approximately 800 students in total) ensures that students will have individual attention, tailored advising and research opportunities well-matched to their interests.
The Triad Area Medical Orchestra brings dedicated medical professionals together to use their musical talents. Co-founder Lucy Lan is a third-year medical student at Wake Forest School of Medicine.

UNHCR Spokesperson Press Briefing (14 October 2008)
This is a summary of what was said by the UNHCR spokesperson at today's Palais des Nations press briefing in Geneva. In particular, see the last question "What is UNHCR's response to the BBC report yesterday (Monday, 13 Oct.) on your work in South Africa?"
Response Letter from António Guterres, UN High Commissioner for Refugees (14 October 2008)
This response formally announces the iniation of an inquiry into the South African UNHCR office and its role in the xenophobia crisis.
This section is a selection of pictures and links to civil society volunteer web-based photo albums, which show different aspects of the xenophobia crisis.
Weekend Storms
Bluewaters 2 (31 August 2008) - from Tracey Saunders
Marches, Protests, and Rallies
March in Nyanga - courtesy of Eudes
Today is an important day for displaced people and a victory for Hirsi and TAC.
At the end of July 2008, the Treatment Action Campaign, the AIDS Law Project and Mahammud Hirsi took all tiers of government -with the Western Cape Provincial Government being the first respondent- to court after waiting for about 9 weeks to ensure that minimum norms and standards on sanitation, food and shelter amongst others would be implemented in places of shelter in accordance with our Constitution and the obligations we have under international law.
For many weeks, TAC stepped in to provide humanitarian relief because our government – the province and the city- failed to fulfil their Constitutional obligations. After it became clear that government was not executing its duties, despite requesting many times for it to develop norms and standards and to implement it, we approached the Cape High Court for relief. The case was due to be argued on 1 September 2008.
After we lodged our court papers, and while waiting for their response, today, we can announce that there is no longer a need to continue with the case as the provincial cabinet has approved a set of emergency guidelines – or norms and standards.
This section details TAC's attempts to overcome the information vaccuum that existed in the camps and community sites. This is our effort to relay information to displaced people about the political, legal and other developments relating to the xenophobic crisis. The newsletters were each designed with content input from civil society stakeholders as well as refugee leadership about what information is needed and wanted within their sites.

TAC has launched a court action on behalf of people who have displaced by xenophobic violence. Papers for Hirsi and TAC v Provincial Government, City of Cape Town and Government of RSA were filed on Tuesday, 29 July 2008 in the High Court of South Africa, Cape of Good Hope Provincial Division. The court case seeks to address conditions in camps and safety sites housing displaced people in the Western Cape.
Govenment has stated that humanitarian aid will end on the 3rd September 2008. 5000 people remain displaced in consistently poor conditions.

A growing number of tribal libraries are becoming an integral part of tribal operations and the fundamental role they play in tribal programs is becoming evident. While many of them face continuing problems of limited resources, staff training and adequate facilities, they continue to expand.
The basic elements of a tribal library are very much the same as any public library. They both contain a collection of materials, organized for use by all members of the community, in a space or facility set aside for that purpose and managed by personnel with specialized skills.
The purpose of most public and/or tribal libraries is to provide the following:
- Recreational Reading - Providing materials of popular interest to community members of all ages.
- Community Information Center - Providing accurate and useful information for individuals and organizations.
- Community Activities Center - Providing activities and services in cooperation with other community agencies and organizations and serving as a meeting place for groups.
- Independent Learning Center - Providing materials and services to individuals to support their formal and informal educational and self-improvement interests.
- Research Center - Providing specific information on selected subject areas.
- Community Computer Access Center - Providing free Internet access and computer usage to library patrons of all ages
Tribal libraries may also function as a cultural center, an archives or in the role of the records management program for the tribal government.
Added activities may include those designed to preserve the history and culture of the tribe. Special attention may be given to storage and retrieval of tribal documents needed by tribal legal representatives.
Each library is unique, however, and collections, services and programs should be designed to fit the needs of the tribe it serves.
Since many tribes do not have professional librarians on their staff, this manual has been designed to provide guidance in managing library procedures. The information provided here has been simplified and library staff using it are urged to consult additional resources given in the suggested readings section of this manual.

In its second year of operation, the Delta Conservation Demonstration Center is succeeding in its mission to showcase best management practices and other environmentally-friendly production methods on a working, commercial-sized Delta farm.
But demonstrating real-life conservation practices isn't all the center is doing to promote farmers as environmentally responsible neighbors.
Part of the center's work includes using soy diesel in some of its farm equipment. So far, two tractors and four diesel irrigation wells operate on the 2-percent soy diesel fuel that the center trucks in from Florida.
The non-profit corporation hopes to convert to a 20-percent soy diesel fuel in 2003, and then eventually 100-percent soy diesel as it becomes more readily available. Currently, it costs the conservation center about 14 cents more per gallon for the soy fuel than it would for regular diesel, due to shipping and handling costs.
"Soy diesel reduces our reliance on foreign oil, has better lubricating properties and supports home-grown products. Eventually, we hope to run ethanol in our gas engines, but we're faced with a roadblock now because of a lack of availability in this area," says Sam Newsom, chairman of the Washington County Soil and Water Conservation District.
The Washington County Soil and Water Conservation District is leasing the model working farm, which consists of 624 acres of cultivatable land plus adjacent wooded areas, from the city of Greenville under a 25-year agreement. The district's five commissioners operate the Delta Conservation Demonstration Center with Hiram Boone serving as executive director of the farm project.
"We needed a place to demonstrate those conservation practices that are economically rewarding for Delta farmers, and environmentally positive for the Delta," Newsom says. "By design, the center is as close as can be to a completely no-till farm. It's a fact that no-till culture reduces or eliminates silting into the surface water. Hopefully, we will be able to show that we can control sediment and nutrient runoff through normal conservation practices."
Billed as a long-range project showcasing the Delta as a leader in environmentally-sound agriculture, the Delta Conservation Demonstration Center aims to show farmers, landowners and others the benefits of buffer strips, field borders and vegetative waterways. "We also want to demonstrate some non-traditional conservation methods that may be more economical than the conventional practices farmers are using," says Boone.
Another of the center's goals is to establish a farmers' market in the Greenville area for locally grown crops, not, Boone says, those imported from Mexico.
The demonstration farm also serves as a teaching center for grade schools and other students.
"We know if we don't teach children about conservation, then they won't know about the conservation practices needed to produce a cleaner environment," Newsom says.
"Most non-ag people don't understand the cost of money or the cost of equipment necessary to operate a farming business. They see 50 bushels of soybeans per acre at $5 per bushel, multiply it out, and think they understand what farmers earn.
"Our concept was for this not just to be a Washington County conservation project, but a true multi-state effort to demonstrate the conservation-oriented practices that can be used on farms in the Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas and Missouri Delta," he says. "We want this to be bigger than us."
The idea, Boone says, is to bring people to the Delta to see a working model farm utilizing a myriad of conservation practices.
"We want to show that farmers are doing a better job than is often publicized by some environmental groups. Farmers are already doing a good job as conservationists. What we're doing is providing the unbiased scientific information, which reinforces the benefits of the conservation measures farmers are putting into practice."
