Hockey is back, but will the fans return?
Cities and businesses that rely on NHL game revenue are breathing easier now that the lockout is over. But some analysts fear spectators may not care for the league anymore.
The National Hockey League hopes to pick up the pieces of this labor-dispute-shattered season on Saturday, when play resumes after a contentious 119-day player lockout.
NHL teams and sports broadcasters are hoping the public will be forgiving and return to root for their teams during this shortened season of 48 games plus playoffs -- to be played in less than 100 days.
And the NHL is indeed asking for forgiveness. The league took out full-page ads in about 40 newspapers across the U.S. and Canada Thursday apologizing for the lockout.
"We are committed to earning back your trust and support the same way it's earned on the ice: with hard work and unwavering dedication," the ad said. "Your cheers drive us forward and we're committed to making you proud to be a fan -- by delivering a game with the action, the skill and the intensity you deserve."
The Associated Press estimates the lockout may put about $1 billion in overall NHL-related revenue on ice this abbreviated season. Parts of those losses are coming out of the pockets of local businesses that rely on NHL games in their towns.
Last month, as the lockout approached its fourth month, the U.S. Small Business Administration announced its representatives would be reaching out to business owners in the 23 cities hosting NHL teams -- to provide counseling and "to coach small businesses until the crowds return."
Those hotels, bars, restaurants and other services that rely on NHL hockey this time of year are hoping their bottom lines can bounce back once the puck drops.
"We're super stoked the lockout is over and the Sharks will begin playing games soon," Liberty Miller, manager of Los Gatos Brewing Company in San Jose, Calif., told Fox Business. The tavern is near HP Pavilion, where the San Jose Sharks had been playing to sold-out crowds.
"When the Sharks play, it brings customers to our restaurant," Miller said. "Without the games, we saw a significant decline in business. We usually hire more people during the NHL season but the lockout this year didn't allow us to do that. Rather it forced us to cut some employees' hours."
And a lot of NHL cities are also looking forward to the renewal of pro hockey money in their coffers.
According to the St. Louis Business Journal, officials in that city say they lost more than $1.3 million in revenue due to the lockout. Each St. Louis Blues home game brings in $65,000 for the city.
But it remains to be seen if the NHL can kiss and make up with its jilted fan base. Marc Ganis, president of Sportscorp, a Chicago sports business consulting group, says he isn't convinced hockey enthusiasts still care about the NHL.
"They didn't hear a hue and cry from the fans, especially in the United States, when hockey wasn't played," he told AP. "That's very distressing. That indicates there's a level of apathy that is troubling. In contrast, in the NFL when there was a threat of canceling a preseason weekend, the nation was up in arms."
More on Money Now
The fans will be back like nothing happened - especially in the hockey towns. It might be different in Tampa Bay, Atlanta, or Nashville, but the Midwestern teams, Northeastern teams, California & Colorado teams, and Canadian teams will be just fine.
The only real impact of this outside the NHL is for all the businesses that lost half a season of revenue and the employees that had their hours cut or were laid off as a result.

I know Hannah Goodman in a few different capacities: Hannah as a reader, Hannah as a truly funny person I hope will continue to contribute to Inside the Writers' Studio episodes (catch Hannah awkwardly trying to explain her choice of reading materials in the IWS episode "Writing Advice from Real Writers"), and Hannah as an author of young adult fiction.
I recently read the first two of the three available books in her Maddie Hickman series (My Sister's Wedding, My Summer Vacation, and Fear of Falling) and was reminded of how much I loved reading YA when I was young enough to fill in the little check boxes on the order forms the teachers would hand out in school (Apple books, anyone?). I'd missed that excitement, but reading Goodman's stories brought it all back. Continue reading

WARREN - U.S. Rep Timothy J. Ryan, D-Niles, figures a turnabout is fair play when it comes to giving businesses incentives whether to locate work in the United States or overseas.
''Currently, we incentivize business to move to other countries. This is a 20 percent tax credit to move business from other countries to here. It's common sense,'' Ryan said after receiving an award from the United Steelworkers for co-sponsoring the Bring Jobs Home Act to lure employers back to the United States.
Ryan said the Senate appears ready to vote for its version of the legislation next week, adding President Obama supports the proposed law. He said the bill faces uncertainty in the House, where Republican leaders have been reluctant to bring it to the floor.
Darryl Parker, president of USW Local 1375 at the idled RG Steel Warren mill, said the economy will experience slow growth without the jobs bill. He added he'd like to see even more done for the industry.
''There needs to be an emphasis on funding for upgrades and improving the efficiency of plants,'' he said.
Ryan noted the U.S. has lost 5.5 million manufacturing jobs from January 2000 to January 2010, but said the sector has added more than 400,000 jobs in the past two years.
''We have the opportunity now to bring some high-end manufacturing back to the U.S,'' he said.

While the debate surrounding Pinterest's value as a marketing tool continues, we're finding the stats behind the social curation site increasingly interesting.
Last week we covered data from Experian that revealed the demographic profile of 'those who pin', and over the weekend, Monetate released a new infographic that follows on from this.
While the chart we included in our post from Ignite Social Media stopped at October 2011, we see that from that point until December, traffic increased more than fourfold. In fact, this grew to 7.51m unique visitors in December alone according to Compete.
The amount of traffic Pinterest sent elsewhere has risen accordingly, becoming a top five referrer for several 'specialist retailers', according to internal data from Monetate.
Of course, it all depends on who those retailers are, which is something we'll follow up on in the coming weeks, but this does suggest that Pinterest's ability to send people elsewhere is growing. Particularly when you see that Experian places the site as the fifth highest traffic referrer among social networks for the week ending 26/11/11.
When you put this in the context of search, it still overshadows social networks as a driver of traffic by a long way, as shown in the stats below.
But Pinterest is young, and though at the moment is underdeveloped in terms of how brands can even use it (brands are listed as 'people' – and the search function isn't the best), we're still keeping an eye on it.

Spacious Rooms in a Prime Boston Location? The Fairmont Copley Plaza Has Them
In general, when I think about hotels in prime city locations, especially historic hotels, I expect tiny rooms with limited amenities. So, when I stayed at the Fairmont Copley Plaza in Boston, MA this summer, I was surprised to find specious rooms mixed with old city charm and modern elegance.
The Fairmont Copley Plaza in Boston is located in Copley Square in the Back Bay section of Boston. This is a prime location – directly across from the Prudential Center/Copley Place Mall, and within walking distance to world famous Newbury Street, the Boston Common, and the Boston Public Garden.

Alright, long story short. Lost ipad that was jailbroken, unfortunately it's password locked and only wifi so the find my ipad app is useless.
Finally broke down and got a new one, specifically asked that it be one without ios6 from store, found one that had 5.1 on it.
From what I gather there is no jailbreak out for that yet right? You have to upgrade to 5.1.1, however to do that you need blobs saved and since Apple is not signing 5.1.1 anymore and you can't access any saved blobs I get all sorts of errors in itunes usually 3194 and have tried all the fixes from host file, etc. Hoping someone can clarify that there's indeed no way I can jailbreak so I'll quit wasting time and just patiently wait until one comes out.

Wise Boat Seats
by James - Saint John, New Brunswick
November 20, 2011
These seats are fine. I bought two. The only annoyance was that ALL the metal tubes were pre-wrapped in plastic before assembly. It took an hour to get the plastic back off before use. Otherwise fine.

CNET Editors' review
Comodo Internet Security is a free antivirus and PC security solution that combines a number of effective security tools into one easy-to-use package. It's one of the latest challengers to enter the expanding field of free security bundles, with which it shares some important characteristics, such as cloud-based virus scanning and behavior analysis to counter zero-day threats, a sturdy firewall, sandboxing, and anti-spyware -- all controlled from a single access point that takes the guesswork and program-swapping out of the security equation. Each strives to satisfy advanced users and absolute beginners alike. Comodo Internet Security passes all those checkpoints and adds some unique extras, such as the privacy-enhancing Comodo Dragon browser and SecureDNS service that lets you surf safely and maybe faster, too. We've been using Comodo's free firewall app for some time, and it's proved every bit as effective as the better-known free firewalls. It's a major component of Comodo Internet Security.
The program's System Tray icon accesses the configuration files for Internet Security, Firewall Security, and Proactive Security, and four optional Security Level settings: Antivirus, Firewall, Defense, and Sandbox. We'll skip to the chase and state that Comodo Internet Security cleared the bar for all-around security. And, like the standalone firewall, Comodo Internet Security plays well with other security tools, including some large packages. In functionality and performance, it's much like its competitors, all of which share similarities. It scanned our system, updated itself automatically, and sandboxed new apps for checking and approval. Dragon is an excellent Chromium-based browser that integrates with Comodo's SecureDNS service (other browsers do too) to offer enhanced privacy. SecureDNS changed our network settings; we noticed no difference in browsing, though.
When free antivirus programs started offering the same protection and security (and even databases and engines) as premium antivirus software, the big players responded by bundling other security tools, including firewalls, threat isolation, and anti-adware tools designed to protect your PC from a wide range of critical and potential threats. Now Comodo has stepped up its game and upped the level of competition with Comodo Internet Security. It belongs on any short list of free PC security solutions.
Publisher's Description
From Comodo:
Comodo Internet Security 2013 is the free, multi-layered, security application that offers complete protection from viruses, Trojans, worms, buffer overflows, zero-day attacks, spyware and hackers. Built from the ground upwards with your security in mind, Comodo Internet Security combines powerful Antivirus protection, an enterprise class packet filtering firewall, advanced host intrusion prevention, application control and anti-spyware in one supremely powerful application. The latest version sees a major leap forward in security and usability with the addition of cloud based virus-scanning and behavior analysis of unrecognized files - making CIS 2013 unbeatable at detecting zero-day attacks. Under default settings, unknown and untrusted files are automatically scanned by our cloud-based virus scanners then, while the file undergoes behavior analysis on our cloud server, it is run in a sandbox on your local machine so that it cannot modify or affect data on your 'real' system. Put simply, this ground-breaking method of protecting your PC means that only trusted applications are allowed to run on your computer. Malware and untrusted files get nowhere near anything important AND you get to use your computer without interruption from nagging alerts. CIS 2013 also features a friendly graphical user interface; granular configuration options; easily understood and informative alerts; wizard-based detection of trusted zones and much more. Comodo Internet Security delivers enterprise class protection and can be used out of the box - so even the most inexperienced users will not have to deal with complex configuration issues after installation. Comodo Internet Security is available in many different languages and is free for life.
What's new in this version: Version 6.3: While there are 200+ issues addressed, here are a selected few:
- Installer crashes during updates
- "Agree and Install" button is disabled when no options are selected during the update
- 0xc0000018 BSOD error randomly occurring during clean boot on Windows 8.1 x64
- FIXED: 'Restart Computer' window does not appear after changing CIS configuration and further upgrading Windows from 8.0 to 8.1
- FIXED: 'Hardware installation' error window appears ... See all new features

"Comodo Internet Security Is The Best"
Version: Comodo Internet Security 6.3.302093.2976
If you look up av tests you will find comodo is one of the best out there in 2014 for peace of mind and security. It comes with a damn good prevention and detection rate. And the firewall doesnt allow nothing through without your permission. Ive tested it extensively and it hasnt failed me yet. But it is impressive. It has a paid version but loses none of its features in the process over the paid version. It keeps you safe and thats all I can ask of it.
Full scan can take a bit depending on your PC and OS. And it is somewhat user friendly but geared more towards those who know what they are doing unlike most reviews on here. They dont know what they are doing. And I can understand that fustration.
A overall powerful internet security program in a world of dangerous landscapes of the internet. Provides highly powerful protection. But can be overwhelming for newer PC users. I have no doubt im protected as a user of comodo internet security and that is all I can ask of them.
"In a word - Dire."
Version: Comodo Internet Security 6.3.302093.2976
Non at all.
During install I decided what I didn't want installed. This garbage went and installed it anyway.
Slowed my computer right down and at one point even I was unable to log in. The blue screen. Maxed out cpu.
Annoying false positives and checks.
I did not install geek buddy, yet there it is and keep popping up.
Invasive program.
I could go on.
If I could give this a minus 5 star rating, I would.Summary
Do not use. There are far better AV programs out there.
This is on the whole a total scam. -
"Total piece of junk!"
Version: Comodo Internet Security 6.3.302093.2976
Looks nice.
SLOWED performance WAY down! Not just while scanning and not just my internet activities, my whole computer and I have a fast processor and lots of RAM. When I called for the "free" help, they told me I needed to upgrade to the paid version for any help.
I don't know how anyone at CNET could think this was a good product. That certainly hasn't been my experience. I wouldn't recommend this PoS to my worst enemy!
"It's a junk!"
Version: Comodo Internet Security 6.3.302093.2976
It seems very beautifull
In the first contact with the "technical services" you perceive that they are sellers. I wanted to try Comodo and they forced me to buy a three year license. As I had seen it was a very good fire wall I finished agreeing. Even there I found a lot of tricks that the vendor tryed to hide to me: automatic renewal, and more.
The software comes with a lot of strings attached. This tehnical service, is for only one year, even if you have bought a full licens for 3 years.
Comodo, as a virus, install a lot of subsoftware with out consulting, as the Home Page (Yahoo!) for your navigator, that continue to reinstall even when you have uninstalled the program. You need to find a remover on Internet to fully inistallSummary
A trash. A junk software!
"One of the best"
Version: Comodo Internet Security 6.3.302093.2976
-Strong protection against malwares.
-Won't slow your system downCons
-Annoying false positives
Overall, it offered a great protection. Just that sometimes it will shows false positives. I didn't really use it to scan my computer as I normally use Malwarebytes to scan for any Malware. I use Comodo IS just for protection against malwares, not for scanning.
The settings is not really user friendly, but you can check via YouTube. There are some examples of how to set Comodo IS to their best.
I read that lots of people complaint about scam.. well.. you can just reject the offer by Geek Buddy. I not sure whether are they really bunch of scammers as I didn't use Geek Buddy. I don't have any issue with that. -
"Worthy Free Product"
Version: Comodo Internet Security 6.3.302093.2976
Easy to install. Caught a bunch of stuff right away that Windows antivirus didn't
None so far
I can't afford these expensive paid antivirus. This looks like a big upgrade from whats built into Windows and limited free products.
"Good & Better Product"
Version: Comodo Internet Security 6.3.302093.2976
It is a full suite of personal security systems and it is free.
None, although I have a new machine. Not sure how it workd on an old box
I actually can't believe how good it is for free product. It is way better than McAfee and at least as good as Symantec paid products.
"Comodo Internet Security"
Version: Comodo Internet Security 6.3.302093.2976
It does the job, and protects you fully.
There are no cons.
A great security to have for your pc. Stops trojans, worms, buffer overflows, zero-day attacks, spyware and hackers.
"C'MON Comodo ,add a restore defaults button !!!"
Version: Comodo Internet Security 6.3.302093.2976
It is good AV if you do not mess around it
How can people learn to use Comodo if there is no 'restore default' option?? There was a big effort involved in making Comodo AV and it is put into shade because of simple 'default' button . Most AVs have that only Comodo doesn't ...I've stopped installing Comodo because of that. Goodbye.
"Bad stuff - It IS MALWARE"
Version: Comodo Internet Security 6.3.302093.2976
Was a good product.
read the summary - I'll paste in my reply to Comodo after their "Geek Buddy" replied to my tech support request for just the firewall component. DON'T PAY FOR OR EVEN THINK OF TRYING THIS PRODUCT, I MEAN MALWARE!!!
I received a reply from Comodo with a link for a horrendously huge and long download for the entire suite. I replied to Comodo that I only wanted an update to fix a problem (reports all showed something like "nothing to report") with the firewall - just the firewall. The Geek Buddy reply was another link that the sender said would only be for the firewall. That was a lie. I ran the "upgrade" and ended up spending hours undoing the damage.
I APOLOGIZE TO COMODO. I gave Comodo Firewall a terrible review, but I was mistaken. I installed the product late at night, thinking it was just an incremental update, but it was really a MAJOR update to the extent that it looked like a scam. Because Comodo has been such a good product for me for years, I decided to give it another try today when I had more time.
The download was still very large and laborious. The installation required TWO restarts. I had to decline a number of "extras" and yet Dragon and Geek Buddy were installed without my permission, some other bullshxt too. The GUI of the new firewall was completely and ridiculously unrecognizable. It reminded me of walking down a neon lit street in a red light district of a less fortunate part of the world, where all they want to do is drag you in the door, club you over the head and empty your pockets. No thanks. Been there - don't want to do it again. And the offer to have a Geek Buddy help me configure the installation??? - PURE bullshxt. The last time a Geek Buddy "helped" me, he screwed up my PC badly and it took hours for me to repair. Are you getting my point?
All I wanted to do was fix a small problem that would get my firewall to produce reports when I selected buttons that should yield that result. I spent hours doing two system restores, hunting out and removing elements of your absolutely malevolent "upgrade", re-downloading and installing my latest windows updates, and finally re-installing my Comodo firewall from the installation files I saved from two years ago. When I did that install, the automatic update (that I tried to do from withing the program before all this BS started) fixed the problem. I now have reports.
It's bad enough that the version from two years ago installed Dragon and Geek Buddy without giving me a choice, but to insult me further by "upgrading" me to a completely unfamiliar product and causing me hours of frustration is unforgivable.
I will use my firewall, the one I liked for the last several years, until it quits working, or until you stop supporting it, but I will never again recommend Comodo, and I will do everything I can to discredit Comodo at every opportunity I have. Your blatantly avaricious and malicious attempts to dig into my pockets and dazzle me with neon buttons and bright colors is pure bullshxt and I won't tolerate it ever again.
Sincerely, your worst enemy,
Updated on Jan 18, 2014
The latest version of Comodo Firewall contains all of the familiar, excellent protection, and much more. It is an improved, faster product, containing several additional features.
The bottom line is that Comodo has produced an extremely effective and complete line of protection modules, that because of the large number of capabilities, may be intimidating. I'm an experienced user, and I prefer to do all of my own work. Comodo offers free Geek Buddy setup assistance and if I were a casual computer or device user, as most are, I would take advantage of this offer because of the enormous capabilities of their product.

[JURIST] UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and former UN war crimes chief prosecutor Louise Arbour issued a statement Tuesday expressing "deep concern" over the situation of civilians in Fallujah and calling for an investigation into possible violations of international humanitarian law and human rights law:
There have been a number of reports during the current confrontation alleging violations of the rules of war designed to protect civilians and combatants. The High Commissioner is particularly worried over poor access by civilians still in the city to the delivery of humanitarian aid and about the lack of information regarding the number of civilians casualties. The High Commissioner considers that all violations of international humanitarian law and human rights law must be investigated and those responsible for breaches -- including deliberate targeting of civilians, indiscriminate and disproportionate attacks, the killing of injured persons and the use of human shields -- must be brought to justice, be they members of the Multinational Force or insurgents.
Unequivocal orders for the proper treatment of unarmed and wounded insurgents must be issued or reinforced to all US and Iraqi military and civilian personnel. US and Iraqi forces should be clear that under international law they have an obligation to protect and provide necessary medical attention to wounded insurgents who are no longer posing a threat, as well as to civilians.The deliberate shooting of unarmed and wounded fighters who pose no immediate threat is a war crime under international law and there is therefore an obligation on the US authorities to investigate all such reports and to hold perpetrators of such crimes accountable before the law. Such investigations should be open and transparent and the findings should be made public. Any potential witnesses should be protected.

Genre: Short Films
Directed by: Various
Starring: Various
NOTE: Since this was written there has been one change. The short documentaries are being run (in limited screenings). The Animated/Live Action films are at 11 a.m., 3 p.m, and 7p.m. daily, except Wed. when the 11 a.m. set goes to the docs.
As has become standard, The Carolina is bringing in the collected Oscar-nominated short films, so that Oscar completists can be as knowledgeable as possible come Oscar night (and not just mark time while awards are doled out to movies you've never seen or, in most cases, never had a chance to see or have even heard of). Thankfully, that hasn't been an issue for the past few years since audiences supported these bookings. (And before anyone asks, no, it appears that the short documentaries are not being included this year. The official reason is that their cumulative running time is too long, but let's be honest: these docs have little drawing power.) As is to be expected with a collection of 10 movies — five animated, five live action — the results are in the realm of the mixed bag. And this year, they're a little more mixed than usual, especially where the animation is concerned. In fact, the animated films strike me as a fairly weak lot.
Easily the best of the animated films is Paperman — which you may have seen since it was attached to Wreck-It Ralph (and was better than the feature). It comes from Disney and is the directorial debut of animator John Kahrs. It's a simple story — as befits a seven-minute running time — about an office worker trying to attract the attention of a lady who works in the building across the street by sending her paper airplanes that go astray in various amusing ways. If Paperman has a fault, it lies in the fact that the ending becomes obvious considerably before it arrives. This is a basic pitfall of short films that rely on some kind of big reveal or surprise ending (last year's Pixar entry La Luna is a prime example). It doesn't hobble the film or lessen its undeniable charm, but it does stand out.
The other four animated shorts were more troublesome for me. The Longest Daycare — a Simpsons short film featuring Maggie — is probably the best of the four (the idea of an Ayn Rand Daycare Center is amusing in itself), but I'm hard-pressed to think of it in terms of an Oscar. That's even more true of the admittedly clever Fresh Guacamole — a two-minute film involving the slicing and dicing (literally) of everyday objects that are then turned into guacamole. That's exactly all there is to the movie. The 11-minute British film Head Over Heels — about a couple who have grown so distant that one lives on the floor and the other on the ceiling — is certainly well-made and has a certain charm, but it suffers from heading to a foregone conclusion. The weakest of the lot is the exceedingly bland Adam and Dog, which purports to be the story of Adam and the first dog having a grand time in Eden until Eve comes along and spoils it all. It's done in pretty colors and has very fine animation, but at 15 minutes it really overstays the value of its slim story.
We're on much firmer footing with the live action shorts, two of which strike me as absolutely brilliant (and I'm having trouble picking a favorite). The most impressive and accomplished is the Belgian Death of a Shadow starring Matthias Schoenaerts (Bullhead) as a man who is taxed with the job of photographing (collecting) shadows at the moment of death so he can buy back his own life from the Collector of Shadows (Peter van den Eede). As a superbly crafted exercise in expressionist fantasy, this is hard to beat — and the absolute stunning production design gives it the look of an expensive feature. In fact, it terms of production, it can easily hold its own with a feature. That's the kind of delight you sometimes find in the world of short films.
Very nearly as good — and perhaps more emotionally resonant — is Shawn Christensen's Curfew. Christensen is best known, I guess, for having written Abduction — the movie that tried to break Taylor Lautner out of Twilight-dom — but don't hold that against him or this remarkable short film that Christensen wrote, directed and also starred in. This is a wry, dark comedy-drama about a young man (Christensen) whose suicide attempt is interrupted by a phone call from his estranged sister (Kim Allen) asking him to babysit his 9-year-old niece for a few hours. After a shaky, "OK," he gets out of the bath, washes off the blood, bandages his wrist and sets off on what turns out to be a memorable experience — and a memorable, stylish movie. Christensen is good as the suicidal Richie, but Fatima Ptacek as his precocious, self-possessed niece is even better. This is a wonderful little movie — with a charming surprise at the halfway mark. Unfortunately, I think it's a long shot to win because of the grandeur of Death of a Shadow — and the more Oscar-bait nature of the remaining three films.
Don't get me wrong, the other films — Asad, Buzkashi Boys and Henry — are good, especially Asad, but they have the feel, to me, of having been made less because the filmmakers had a story or a vision they wanted to share than because they wanted to win an award. The trick is that they're all good and any one of them might. In this year of Amour fever, my money's on Henry, which is the weakest of the lot. Oh, it's well-made, but, like other shorts this year, it suffers badly from heading toward a big reveal moment that's painfully evident long before it gets there. However, I know it will appeal to a lot of people who will also find it incredibly moving. I'd suggest seeing for yourself. Not Rated, but contains adult themes.
Starts Friday at Carolina Asheville Cinema 14

Updated 28 July 2008
L.J. (Louis Jacobus) VAN ZYL, South Africa (400m Hurdles)
Born 20 July 1985, Bloemfontein
1.86m / 75kg
Tuks University Athletics Club, Pretoria
Second of three children (elder sister, younger brother); parents, Japie and Martie, competed in athletics at school level, lives on a farm in Molteno District, northern Cape Province.
In a country where rugby claims most burly, strong and fast sportsmen at a young age, Louis van Zyl – who wants to be known as L.J. van Zyl - made what turned out to be the right decision to opt for athletics. He did so after playing rugby at South Africa's popular annual provincial primary schools tournament. His many track successes, and his No1 ranking by the IAAF in the 400m Hurdles before the 2007 World Championships in Osaka, have endorsed his decision.
However, van Zyl's failure to advance beyond the first round heats in Osaka was a major blow to him but also the best lesson he had ever learnt. It taught him to have more respect for all his opponents and now – on the eve of his first Olympics – he is much happier to be No.3 rather than the No.1 of a year ago.
Although his first names are Louis Jacobus, van Zyl has preferred to be called L.J. since he was a young schoolboy. To him it is almost as important as success on the track. A serious, quiet-natured and dedicated young man, he is determined to graduate in physical education in the foreseeable future and he loves to ride a horse when at home on the farm.
Van Zyl's name appeared for the first time in the RSA Athletics Annual with a time of 22.6 over 200m in October 1999. In March 2000, at 14, he improved to 22.09 in Pretoria and, in his first serious 300m Hurdles race, on the same day, he produced a South African junior record (36.83). It triggered the talent that has blossomed since.
Yet van Zyl's international career started on a low note. Selected to go to the 2001 IAAF World Youth Championships, in Debrecen, Hungary, and following times of 50.84 and 51.06 over the 84cm hurdles, and 51.14A (world fastest by a 15-year-old) over the senior (91.4cm) hurdles, he went to Hungary fancied for gold. But he was disqualified in his heat for dragging his leg. The lesson was learned - it has not happened since.
In 2002, at 16 (one day before his 17th birthday) van Zyl became World Junior champion in 48.89, a world best for 16 and 17-year-olds and the 6th fastest by any junior. In 2003, he won the national senior title in Port Elizabeth, defeating Llewellyn Herbert, but due to a switch of coaches, and with no global junior event to aim at, his progress stalled.
The 2004 World Junior Championships, in Grosseto, Italy, were a let-down after the dizzy heights of his 2002 triumph. Van Zyl failed to reproduce his previous form, finished 4th, and also failed to qualify for the Athens Olympics. This remains among his greatest disappointments to date.
Perhaps, though, it was a blessing in disguise. Van Zyl broke all ties with Bloemfontein and moved to Pretoria, where Hennie Kotze, a former 49.26 hurdler, became his new coach. The change was visible early in 2005 when van Zyl expressed a determination "to run in the low 48s towards the middle of the year and, most importantly, to be selected for the team to Helsinki (World Championships)."
As soon as the second week in February, van Zyl issued warning of what could be expected when he lowered his PB to 48.54 and booked his seat to Helsinki, where he finished 6th. Earlier, he had made his return noticeable with a win at the Athens Grand Prix and he ended the year with 3rd at the World Athletics Final, in Monaco.
With a brilliant win in 48.05 at the Commonwealth Games, in Melbourne, van Zyl started 2006 in sensational fashion and went from strength to strength with second places at the World Cup, in Athens, and World Athletics Final, in Stuttgart. Towards the end of the year, he underwent a minor leg operation but, come the 2007 summer season, he would be back in form.
Victory in the Golden League, in Rome in 2007, was most impressive and he also took the All Africa Games title in Algiers, a clear warning that he should be someone to be reckoned with at the World Championships in Osaka. His immediate targets were to medal in Osaka, at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, and to join the elite group of intermediate hurdlers below 48sec.
Now, a year later, the last two of those targets are unchanged. The first went by the wayside when, through an error of judgment, he was eliminated in the first round. Coasting to the finish in first place he relaxed, lost concentration, and four athletes slipped past him.
Towards the end of 2007 new headaches dawned. Firstly, with coach Kotze moving to Saudi Arabia, he had to find a new trainer. He also underwent a minor groin operation that had been troubling since Melbourne in 2006 and which delayed his 2008 competition schedule. He considers it a success because he has become stronger. His coaching problem was solved by joining forces with Herbert's former trainer, Nico van Heerden.
Van Zyl made a cautious start to the domestic season with various minor placings but, come the national championships in mid March, he did enough to win the gold medal. Three fellow South Africa runners had already qualified for Beijing and van Zyl managed to book his seat only when winning the African Championship title, in Addis Ababa, in May.
While he was consistent in most of the Golden League meetings, the highlight of van Zyl's campaign in Europe was at the Athens Grand Prix on 13 July, which he won in 48.22 to rank No.3 in the IAAF 2008 Top Lists. He refuses to speculate about Beijing, where he will consider every race from round one onwards a new challenge.

Google escaped penalties associated with the Federal Communications Commission's electronic eavesdropping law in the agency's investigation of private user data collection through Street View mapping. There simply isn't a precedent for applying the law to unsecured Wi-Fi networks.
However, the FCC did propose a $25,000 fine against Google. The search company "deliberately impeded and delayed" the investigation into the 2010 incident for several months, according to a Saturday FCC news release.
According to the FCC, Google was reluctant to cooperate with investigators. An engineer who developed the Street View code chose to use his Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination and refused to provide testimony.
In a statement to the Wall Street Journal, a Google spokesperson said, "We worked in good faith to answer the FCC's questions throughout the inquiry, and we are pleased that they have concluded that we complied with the law."
Google will have the opportunity to appeal the FCC's fine.
