man 5 crontab:
0 4 8-14 * * (user) run-parts script
Minute, Hour, Day of month, Month, Day of Week
Make the first line of the script check for day of the week and exit if 
it's not Sunday. This crontab will only run on the 8th through the 14 
which should be the only days a second day of the month could fall.
