(Redirected from Fantasy Auto Racing)
Jump to: navigation, search
Fantasy auto racing is a type fantasy sports game based on motor sports. Players, also known as fantasy team owners, select a roster of drivers to earn points according to actual race results. Player scores, as determined by their drivers’ actual racing results, are sorted within a league of players to determine weekly, periodic and championship winners. Games can be free or pay-to-play with cash or merchandise as prizes.
Inspired by the popularity of Fantasy football, American fantasy auto racing games began in the late 1980s but didn’t become popular until the advent of the internet. Games are usually based on activities and race results from the most popular, broadcast-live forms of motor sports like Formula One, NASCAR, Indy Racing League, Daytona Prototype and the American Le Mans Series racing. Fantasy auto racing games can be run season-long, from Winter Speed Weeks at Daytona through the last major race weekend of the season, or they are segmented to award quarterly prizes and attract new players throughout the year.
Fantasy racing rules, formats and point systems vary widely. Most American games follow NASCAR racing and award driver points based on the official NASCAR points system. To reduce the likelihood of ties, game rules can restrict driver starts according to criteria based on salary caps, driver rankings or frequency of selection. Games that follow one specific series combine driver or roster salary caps with a point system based on predictions for driver pit strategy, advancement or retreat from starting position, fastest lap or qualifying performance. Some games let players predict the finish positions of select drivers with points determined by the accuracy of the selection. Other games follow the results of all the top stock car racing, open wheel racing and sports car racing series and require players to pick at least one driver from each race per weekend in filling out a seven driver roster.

Ian Winterbottom, Baron Winterbottom (6 April 1913 – 4 July 1992), was a Labour Party politician in the United Kingdom.
He was elected at the 1950 general election as Member of Parliament for Nottingham Central, a marginal constituency which the sitting Labour MP Geoffrey de Freitas had abandoned for the promising Lincoln seat.
He held the seat at the 1951 general election with a majority of only 139 votes, but lost it at the 1955 election to the Conservative candidate John Cordeaux. He contested Nottingham Central again at the 1959 general election, but Cordeaux held the seat with an increased majority.
He did not contest the 1964 election, when Labour returned to government under Harold Wilson, but was made a life peer in 1965, as Baron Winterbottom of Clopton in the County of Northampton. After Labour’s victory at the 1966 general election, he joined the Labour Government, serving as Under-Secretary of State for the Navy until 1967, as Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Public Building and Works from 1967 to 1968 and finally as Under-Secretary of State for the Air Force from 1968 until the government’s defeat at the 1970 general election.
He died in 1992, aged 79.

Following shakedown and training off the Atlantic coast, LCI(L)-874 departed Key West, Florida on 25 November for the Pacific. She engaged in additional training after arriving San Diego, California on 13 December. Departing on 29 January 1945, she touched Pearl Harbor, Eniwetok, and Guam before arriving Peleliu on 12 April. She performed picket and patrol duty in the Palau Islands during the remaining months of World War II.
From September 1945 to February 1946, LCI(L)-874 operated between the Palau and Mariana Islands, providing mail and shuttle service among the Islands. Departing Eniwetok on 4 February she arrived at San Pedro, California, a month later. Sailing to Oregon in May LCI(L)-874 was decommissioned there on 10 July 1946 and joined the Pacific Reserve Fleet.
1952–1957
She was reclassified as a Coastal Minesweeper (Underwater Locator), and renamed USS Kestrel (AMCU-26) on 7 March 1952. Conversion to AMCU-26 began 24 August 1953 at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, Bremerton, Washington, and was completed on 1 March 1954.
Kestrel was recommissioned on 8 February 1954, Lt. Gurley P. Chatelain in command.

Siavash Ghomayshi (Persian: ????? ????? , born 1945 in Dezful, Khuzestan, Iran) is an Iranian singer and song writer.
Siavash studied music in London. He left Iran after 1979 and now lives in Los Angeles.
Biography
Ghomayshi was born in Dezful in 1943. His passion for music led him to leave Iran in the age of 11 and begin his musical education in at the Royal Society of Arts in Paris, France, where he majored in pop. He worked with some popular bands in England such as the Rebels and the Insects as a pianist and singer. When he returned to Iran at the age of 25, he started his career mainly as a composer. Ghomayshi has created numerous melodies and lyrics for famous Persian artists such as Shadmehr, Ebi, Dariush, Mansour, and more. Ghomayshi wrote his first song, called “Boatman,” for Zia when he was 14. Although initially considered a composer, in the latter years of the Pahlavi regime (before the 1979 Islamic Revolution) he released his first album, and has since continued his work as a singer, composer, arranger, and lyricist. In 2002 he released his first album, Farangis, in Iran. He lived in Iran until the age of 25, then, given the uncertain status of those involved in the music business following the Islamic revolution of Iran, decided to leave the country once again to pursue his career, this time his destination was United States. In recent years Ghomayshi has explored electronic music as well, and while such experimentation has introduced new elements into his music, the results retain elements of his unique sound. Among the 15 albums ghomayshi has recorded to date, 2005’s Roozhaye BeeKhatereh (Days of No Memory), 2004’s Bee Sarzamin Tar az Baad (More Landless than the Wind), 2005’s Ghesseye Gol va Khaar (The Story of Flower and the Blade), and 2003’s Taak (The Vine) have been among his most successful. His new album is Sunset to Sunrise (A Remix of album). Because of the popularity of the siavash voice among young generation, in recent years many singers inside Iran tried to sing in the same way as sia.
Although his albums may be considered largely nonpolitical, he expresses a longing for his home country. ghomayshi has also had significant involvement in albums released by various musical compatriots, especiallyLeila Forouhar`s The Story of Yours, The Story of Maine and Ebi’s Stars and Night of Morning Glory, which attracted considerable attention. His music can be considered as Persian-language pop/rock, in contrast to the vocal stylings most often associated with adult contemporary singers.

History
In 1955, Pascack Valley Regional High School District opened Pascack Valley High School with an enrollment of 650 students from the boroughs of Hillsdale, Montvale, River Vale, and Woodcliff Lake. Previously, students from those municipalities attended other local high schools, including Westwood and Park Ridge High Schools, but with increasing enrollment as the suburbs boomed, the towns, with State approval, formed a regional high school district.
During the next several years enrollment increased and so did the faculty and building capacity. Additional classrooms were added and the program of studies was expanded. Increased enrollment in 1963 resulted in double sessions. In September 1964, Pascack Hills High School opened up to students living in Montvale, Woodcliff Lake and a portion of Hillsdale. Pascack Valley High School had the balance of Hillsdale students and all of River Vale students. In the early 1990s, western (west of Pascack Road) Hillsdale transitioned from sending to Pascack Hills to Pascack Valley.
By 1970, the enrollment was again up to capacity and building construction was necessary to house 1,800 students. This expansion of Pascack Valley High School provided additional classrooms, expanded department areas, and other facilities such as gymnasium, a new cafeteria and library.
In March, 2008, the district announced plans to offer online courses, beginning in the 2008-09 school year, with that school year’s seniors being given priority.
Awards and recognition
In the 2000-01 school year, Pascack Valley Regional High School was recognized with the Best Practices Award by the New Jersey Department of Education for its “Senior Projects/Senior Alternate Assessment Program”.
Pascack Hills High School was the 12th-ranked public high school in New Jersey out of 316 schools statewide, in New Jersey Monthly magazine’s September 2008 cover story on the state’s Top Public High Schools. The school was ranked 8th in the magazine’s September 2006 issue. The school peaked at number 2 in the magazine’s 2001 rankings.

The Clifton Oyster Rocks are a series of islands located off the coast of the Clifton neighbourhood of Karachi, Pakistan. The islands were under the control of the Pakistani Navy until 2006, when the Karachi city government decided to include the island as part of its plans to renovate the city. As part of these plans, the Port Fountain was constructed at the base of the northern island. It shoots water up to 620 feet in the air, and is the second-tallest fountain in the world.
