Free iOS apps during App Store anniversary Video
Free iOS apps during App Store anniversary Video Transcript
It's time to grab apps of freebies from iTunes. I'm Bridget Carey, and this is your CNET update. It's been 5 years since Apple began selling apps for the iPhone, and to mark the anniversary this week, some popular pricey apps are free, including the games Infinity Blade 2, Where's My Water, and Tiny Wings. There are also professional apps for free like Traktor DJ, which typically costs 20 bucks. Also free is the journaling app called Day One, and the app Over puts words over your photos. You can also get the best-selling cookbook, How to Cook Everything, and you can find a list of free apps on the show blog at CNET.com/update. Garmin has announced a new in-car navigation device, the HUD. It projects turn-by-turn directions upward onto the windshield into the driver's line of sight. There's no screen. This projector just sits on the dashboard and automatically adjust the brightness of its projection so drivers can see it in direct sunlight and at night. HUD, which is short of heads-up display, will sell for $130 when it goes on sell some time in the summer, and you'll need a $30 app on your smartphone though to power it. The HUD is meant to reduce driver distraction in a time where many people are taking their eyes off the road by getting directions from their smartphone screens. Facebook is rolling out Graph Search to all users in the US. Some were able to get an early peek in January, but this new way of searching is rolling out to everyone now. It lets you narrow down results with phrases, such as searching for "My friends from Florida who like pancakes." If you're looking for a deal, two popular mini tablets are cheaper than ever. Amazon just cut the price of the Kindle Fire HD tablet to $170. And as for the competition at Barnes & Noble, well, the Nook HD+ is listed for $150, but don't be surprised if you see the Nook's price go even lower because Barnes & Noble has said it will no longer design and produce color tablets. It will instead partner with third-party manufacturers when it wants to make a color tablet in the future. And if you want the popular Samsung Galaxy S4 without a contract, MetroPCS is now selling it for $550 upfront, but it's only coming to a few big markets for the time being. Looking ahead this week, you can expect Nokia to announce a new Windows phone with a crazy good camera. Nokia is having an event in New York on Thursday to show off the Lumia 1020. It has a 41-megapixel camera. Yeah, 41 megapixels. The camera will be similar to the one in the Nokia 808 Pureview, which was never marketed before to North America because it ran on the unpopular Symbian operating system. That's your tech news update. From our studios in New York, I'm Bridget Carey.

Ophthalmic Medications Supplied by NECC Recalled; Confirms Previous Statement That Mission Health Never Purchased or Used The Product Linked To The Fungal Meningitis Outbreak
ASHEVILLE, N.C. (Oct. 19, 2012) Today, Mission Health officials released the information below regarding medications produced by the New England Compounding Center (NECC).
On Oct. 15, 2012, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released a statement expressing concern about the sterility of any injectable drugs, including ophthalmic drugs that are injectable or used in conjunction with eye surgery, produced by NECC and used after May 21, 2012. According to the FDA, the sterility of any injectable drugs produced by NECC are of significant concern, and out of an abundance of caution, patients who received these products should be alerted to the potential risk of infection.
Mission Health has confirmed its previous statement on Oct. 4, 2012, that it never purchased or used the specific steroid linked to the fungal meningitis outbreak associated with NECC. Since that time, the FDA issued additional recommendations that all health providers alert patients of potential risk of infection from any injectable drugs produced by NECC, including ophthalmic drugs that are injectable or used in conjunction with eye surgery.
Mission Health officials have confirmed that approximately 500 patients at Mission Hospital and Blue Ridge Regional Hospital were administered ophthalmic medications (used during eye surgery) supplied by NECC. As recommended by the FDA, Mission Health is currently contacting all such patients and advising them to contact their medical provider if they develop certain specified symptoms. Additionally, on Oct. 4, 2012, Mission Health immediately suspended all purchases from NECC.
It is important for our patients to understand this notification is a precaution and, at this time, no cases of eye infections have been reported in connection with any NECC-produced ophthalmic drugs administered through Mission Health, said William Maples, MD, Senior Vice President and Chief Quality Officer for Mission Health. However, Mission Health takes patient safety and transparency very seriously, and will continue monitoring this situation and take all appropriate steps to protect those we serve.

Big Bank Failures Need Punishment: Fed's Fisher
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Dallas Federal Reserve President Richard Fisher -- a longtime critic of "Too-Big-To-Fail banks" and ultra-loose monetary policy-- says banks that require taxpayer assistance in the future will have to face harsh, non-negotiable consequences.
In a presentation building his case for breaking up the big banks on Tuesday, Fisher said taxpayer aid will be provided to banks with strings attached, such as requiring the removal of the CEO and top executive team, replacement of the board of directors and making all employment/compensation and bonus contracts "null and void."
He also said the top management team should be made to return any bonus compensation paid out in the two years prior to the bailout.

When to Seek Medical CareIf your symptoms last a long time and are not relieved with recommended home care, you should see your doctor. Carpal tunnel syndrome is rarely an emergency. Most cases of carpal tunnel syndrome respond to nonsurgical treatment. The first line of treatment for mild carpal tunnel syndrome is to wear a wrist brace. This has been shown to relieve the symptoms from the carpal tunnel by placing the wrist in an optimal position (30 degrees of extension), reducing the nerve irritation. If carpal tunnel syndrome persists for a long time, permanent nerve injury is possible that will cause numbness as well as weakness and atrophy (shrinkage) of muscles in the hand. Treatment is directed at preservation of hand function. Next Page: Must Read Articles Related to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Hartford pulled back from a 13-point deficit in the first half to defeat Fairleigh Dickinson, 74-60, fighting both a visiting crowd and a former teammate in the process.
According to a Jon Rothstein tweet, Fairleigh Dickinson will fire coach Greg Vetrone at the end of the season. Ryan Peters breaks down the season for the Knights over at Big Apple Buckets and why Vetrone is now on his way out. I would say Vetrone is the first coach fired for performance reasons this season, because ODU's Blaine Taylor probably did something else to get himself canned, and South Alabama's Ronnie Arrow retired. He definitely won't be the last. Time to start building the list.
I sit down to talk with first-year Mount Saint Mary's head coach Jamion Christian about what it's like to coach his alma mater and where he sees his team going this coming season.
John Templon, who has been kind enough to contribute our top 10 lists on the Northeast Conference and the MAAC, has a deeper look at St. Francis (NY) over at his site, Big Apple Buckets. The Terriers are outside the top 20 countdown that we have been doing, so this might be your only shot to get a little deeper on the team prior to the season.
The Wagner Seahawks are among the contenders for the Northeast Conference title, but will they be able to recreate the 25-win success of last year? We go inside the numbers to give our reading of their prospects.

Short for Wired Equivalent Privacy, a security protocol for wireless local area networks (WLANs) defined in the 802.11b standard. WEP is designed to provide the same level of security as that of a wired LAN. LANs are inherently more secure than WLANs because LANs are somewhat protected by the physicalities of their structure, having some or all part of the network inside a building that can be protected from unauthorized access. WLANs, which are over radio waves, do not have the same physical structure and therefore are more vulnerable to tampering. WEP aims to provide security by encrypting data over radio waves so that it is protected as it is transmitted from one end point to another. However, it has been found that WEP is not as secure as once believed. WEP is used at the two lowest layers of the OSI model - the data link and physical layers; it therefore does not offer end-to-end security.

Blog Spot Beats: Teeth, Paniyolo, AsuraViral SoundsTeeth See Spaces 7" (Moshi Moshi Records, 2010) "See Spaces" • Listen The heavy-hitting synths are relentless! They pump throughout your body profusely for the entirety of the track. Veronica So's vocals are such a pleasant mixture of different styles, purring binaurally, caressing your eardrums. Electro club music is good with my coffee and cigarettes in the morning. Paniyolo is Muneki Takasaka, a musician from Yokyo, Japan with one album, I'm Home. His style of production utilizes left-field samples such as children speaking melodically. In this track there is a lot of finger-plucking of an acoustic guitar and classical strings. Japanese electro acoustic is one of the only styles of music I can enjoy in a lulled state of mind. Every note he plays sets my body into utmost bliss. His music confronts my soul and puts my being into perspective. This is a track that you cruise to on a Sunday morning, blasting on repeat with the sun roof open. Ryan York uses a wide variety of synth beats, fluctuating from atmospheric to heavy-paced IDM. All behind heavy tempo'd jungle-esque drums. He uses Mariah Carey vocals samples chopped in repeat, and augmented. Public Comments |

An Aurora survivor
Another deadly shooting rampage has stunned our nation, this time in the quiet suburbs of Connecticut. Twenty-seven families have lost loved ones. Parents are preparing to bury their children. And hundreds of elementary school students in Newtown have suddenly been robbed of their innocence after hearing their classmates shot and killed over the PA system....For me, this issue is deeply personal. I grew up in Southbury, just next door to Newtown, and in July, I almost died when a gunman opened fire on a crowded theater at the Century 16 in Aurora, Colo. Just a few minutes into the midnight showing of the new "Batman" movie, a tear-gas canister flew across the theater and shots rang out. I'll never forget the screams.Though I was hit with 25 shotgun pellets in my face, neck, chest and arms, I was able to escape to safety. Twelve of my fellow moviegoers that night were not so lucky.In the wake of Aurora, our country did what we so often do after suffering a national tragedy: We reflected, we mourned, we observed a moment of silence. Our elected officials in Washington offered their condolences, but little else. There was no action taken to ensure that something so horrific never happened again. Washington avoided starting a meaningful dialogue on gun violence, and the costs of that were tragic.Just weeks after we said "never again," worshippers at a Sikh Temple in Wisconsin were brutally murdered with guns. They were followed by several women in a beauty salon outside of suburban Milwaukee, shoppers in a mall near Portland, Ore., and most recently the young victims at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown....We need our nation's lawmakers to begin a conversation on this epidemic of violence, and we need them to do it now. Now is the time to demand a plan.They can begin with the issues we all agree upon. For all the passion and intensity of the debate over guns in America, there are commonsense reforms that people on all sides support, such as requiring background checks on all firearms purchases. After all, 82 percent of gun owners -- including 74 percent of National Rifle Association members -- are in favor of such checks. They believe that support for Second Amendment rights goes hand-in-hand with keeping guns out of the wrong hands.-- Stephen Barton, in The Hartford CourantAustralia's lessonOn April 28, 1996, a gunman opened fire on tourists in a seaside resort in Port Arthur, Tasmania. By the time he was finished, he had killed 35 people and wounded 23 more. It was the worst mass murder in Australia's history.Twelve days later, Australia's government did something remarkable. Led by newly elected conservative Prime Minister John Howard, it announced a bipartisan deal with state and local governments to enact sweeping gun-control measures. A decade and a half hence, the results of these policy changes are clear: They worked really, really well.At the heart of the push was a massive buyback of more than 600,000 semi-automatic shotguns and rifles, or about one-fifth of all firearms in circulation in Australia. The country's new gun laws prohibited private sales, required that all weapons be individually registered to their owners and required that gun buyers present a "genuine reason" for needing each weapon at the time of the purchase. (Self-defense did not count.)In the wake of the tragedy, polls showed public support for these measures at upwards of 90 percent.What happened next has been the subject of several academic studies. Violent crime and gun-related deaths did not come to an end in Australia, of course. But, as The Washington Post pointed out in August, homicides by firearm plunged 59 percent between 1995 and 2006, with no corresponding increase in non-firearm-related homicides.The drop in suicides by gun was even steeper: 65 percent. Studies found a close correlation between the sharp declines and the gun buybacks.Robberies involving a firearm also dropped significantly. Meanwhile, home invasions did not increase, contrary to fears that firearm ownership is needed to deter such crimes. But here's the most stunning statistic. In the decade before the Port Arthur massacre, there had been 11 mass shootings in the country. There hasn't been a single one in Australia since.-- Will Oremus, SlateLBJ's gun controlIf ever there were a moment for President Obama to learn from history, it is now, in the wake of Friday's shootings at the elementary school at Newtown, Conn. The timely lesson for Obama, drawn from the experience of Lyndon B. Johnson -- the last president to aggressively fight for comprehensive gun control -- is this: Demand action on comprehensive gun control immediately from this Congress or lose the opportunity during your presidency.In the aftermath of the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy (just weeks after the fatal shooting of Martin Luther King Jr. and only a few years after President John F. Kennedy was shot), President Johnson pressed Congress to enact gun control legislation he had sent to Capitol Hill years earlier. LBJ ordered all of us on his staff -- and urged allies in Congress -- to act swiftly. "We have only two weeks, maybe only 10 days," he said, "before the gun lobby gets organized." ...For three years Johnson's bill had been locked in the Senate Judiciary Committee by a powerful army of gun lobbyists. But LBJ was always poised to grasp any opportunity to achieve his legislative objectives, even in the most horrendous circumstances.He had used the tragedy of King's assassination in 1968 to "at least get something for our nation" out of it, finally persuading the House to pass the fair housing bill he had sent it in 1966. Johnson saw in the tragedy of the assassination of Robert Kennedy in June of 1968 a chance to get his gun bill enacted. ...Obama has a unique opportunity: a lame-duck session of Congress.If he learns from the lesson of LBJ -- two weeks to get action -- and takes advantage of the fact that many members can vote their conscience without fear of retribution by the gun lobby because they are not seeking re-election, this nation may "complete the task" of passing comprehensive gun controls.That's an opportunity that is worth grasping out of the unspeakable tragedy that occurred in Newtown, Conn.-- Joseph A. Califano Jr., in The Washington Post Like the excerpts? Read more at star-telegram.com/opinionsHave more to add? News tip? Tell us

Rokbed™ v3 is more than just a case; it's a system. The new v3 includes never before seen features such as an integrated lock mechanism, anti slip grip, detachable lanyard and an optional magnet insert. Made from tough polycarbonate that is reinforced in critical areas the Rokbed™ v3 is also one of the most protective iPhone 4/4s cases on the market today, protecting your phone from six directions. Compatible with all iPhone carriers.
Designed, engineered and made in the USA.
iPhone 4 4s Protective Case Kit Includes:
This case has been through the ringer! Almost 2 years of being dropped, kicked, tossed and handled by my 2 yr old and never once did my wife's phone blink. It's quite rough around the edges now and she's getting a new one. I can't say enough. The only thing I wish Rokform had was a waterproof case cause that is the one weakness. The only thing to slow down my wife's phone was a drop into a puddle. Rok on!

I've had the smoke-colored V3 for a year and a half now. As much as I baby my 4S to keep it safe even with a case on it, I have still accidentally dropped it a few times. The V3 has protected my phone from being dropped on concrete floors and asphalt - two surfaces that most people are around a lot and are likely to drop their phones on. While the case has some scuff marks from being dropped, my iPhone 4S has no external or internal damage. I also recommend getting the screen protectors - they've been great.
(Posted on 12/20/13)
Well, I ordered this case for my iPhone 4 in June of 2012. Used this case until upgrading to an iPhone 5s. I have no complaints about this case. It has worked exactly as expected and protected the phone from several drops. Customer service is one of those great areas with Rokform. I did break the bottom part of the case on one of the drops. I emailed Rokform and provided my order information and they promptly shipped out a replacement bottom with no questions or issues. This was after owning the case for over a year. I ordered my case with the magnet option. Every time I use the magnet to hold my phone somewhere, I get all kinds of questions/interest in the case. I love being able to stick the phone on my dash of my 71 Scout (as its metal) and use it as a GPS or accurate speedometer. Again, Thanks again for making an awesome case and having Blazing customer service. P.S. With this kind of an experience, of course I purchased another Rokform for my iPhone 5s!
(Posted on 12/18/13)
I've had this case for quite a while and have loved it for its slim silhouette and the way it allows the beauty of the iPhone to be see through the back of the case. I've dropped my phone numerous times, mostly from about waist level, and the case has always protected it. Yesterday, I leaned over a balcony with my phone in my chef coat pocket. The phone fell to the floor below onto a concrete surface. Neither the back nor the front screen was damaged at all! However, the impact was so great, the digitizer inside was damaged. Now, I'm back to look for another case for my new gold iPhone 5s. These cases are awesome!
(Posted on 9/28/13)
I have broken more iPhones than I would like to admit. I have tried every case that claims they are the best, from Incase to Otterbox. This is the first one to actually protect my phone. Without a hesitation, this is the best case I have ever had. So good in fact, I purchased a new one for my work phone. The only thing that was slightly flawed is that the skinny piece that goes across the bottom right under the 'home' button broke. I have not replaced it because it has not caused any problems for me, but I hear great things about the customer service (See Jeff's review). If you want to get a case for your phone, get this one. You will not regret it. Nice job Rokform!
(Posted on 8/22/13)
I bought a white case for my daughters iPhone 4S, after 6 mo the bottom piece got a crack in it and eventually broke. I called and a very friendly customer service lady answered the phone. I told her what happened and she didn't even question me! Just a friendly what is your name, address, and color and I will get a replacement out today! Now that's customer service! Something you don't see very often any more. Thanks Rokform!
(Posted on 8/5/13)
i have had 15+ cases/covers for my iphone 4s over the last couple of years. finally found "my" perfect case. i am seriously in love with this thing. no, really guys, i'd marry it if i could. oh yeah, and the fact that it is MADE IN THE USA is just icing on the cake. customer service is outstanding. keep up the great work ROKFORM.
(Posted on 6/8/13)
been using my v3 case for a week now. very impressive piece of work! have accidently dropped my phone twice. thank goodness for the v3. not a scratch.scuff or mark of any kind. love that its made in the U.S.A. got the magnet insert. going to order the sport clip next. great job rokform!
(Posted on 4/27/13)
Amazing case! I was surprisingly pleased when I got both of my cases. Extremely strong, well made, and beautiful. Car attachment fit perfectly and I didn't have to buy and extra attachment for navigation. After buying about 30 other cases, I'm a Rokform'er for life! Recommended!
(Posted on 4/22/13)
v3 case is awesome! Add the sport clip and magnet set and the functionality of this case goes through the roof. Great product!
Great case. Just wish they had rubber inserts for the side similar to the one on the back.
Just got the V3 case yesterday. Very impressed love it. I really like the magnet kit I can stick my phone just about any where when I'm working around the house or garage and I don't have to worry about it. Great product will be getting one of the clips next.
Just got my case, this thing is badass! Heard about you guys on Lex and Terry on XM165. Now I know why they talk so much about your product!
Thank you for the lanyard. Most of all I am loving my case! It allows me to show of my white iphone while giving it the highest level of protection!!! Ii have told all my friends and family to look into these when they are looking for new cases!!! TY
I was recently given an iPhone 4S for my job. I figured since they were spending the money on the phone,I should look for a case to protect it. After researching cases, bumpers and protectors, I found your site and reviews, and bought your Rokbed v3. All I can say is "Amazing!" This is a great case! The comments from co-workers are great and, after dropping the phone onto the concrete floor in our warehouse, my manager was happily suprised to see there was no damage to either the phone or the case. My manager commented to me that when he upgrades from his Blackberry to the iPhone, he's getting one of your iphone cases. Keep up the great work!

Because the area is experiencing freezing temperatures, Manatee County residents are being encouraged to protect their backflow devices.
The Manatee County Utilities Department said residents can protect the devices by covering them with a blanket or sheet and Duct tape it securely, insulating exposed pipes or purchasing specially-made covers.
If the assembly freezes or fails to work, owners should call a plumber or the tester who certified it last for repairs.
Property owners are responsible for the maintenance of the backflow devices, which are used to protect water supplies from contamination or pollution.

It's good news for the Housing market and the Economy.
According to credit reporting agency TransUnion, mortgage holders at least two months behind on payments is down by nearly 14% compared to 2011, the lowest level in four years.
That means folks are doing a better job keeping up with their payments.
North Dakota has the lowest delinquency rate with just over one and a half percent, followed by South Dakota with close to two percent.

At a desk.
Example Citation:
Since Lunch Money was launched amid muted fanfare in September, we have variously lunched in downtown Toronto, New York and Vancouver. This week, our luncheon companion having begged off at the last minute, it's back to the usual in deepest, darkest Don Mills, to the vagaries of the National Post cafeteria, to the sandwich at the desk accompanied by a large side order of markets and a melange of reflection.
The cafeteria does offer different fare, including entrees and a salad bar at a reasonable price. But dining "al desko" for Lunch Money most often involves grabbing a freshly made sandwich and some carrot and celery sticks for less than $4.
William Hanley: "Lunch Money: Dining 'al desko' in Don Mills," National Post, December 9, 2000
Earliest Citation:
Location is status for the secretaries: the West Wing is definitely the preferred spot, although one must dress a bit better and keep the language clean. Next comes the Old Executive Office, and bringing up the rear, the new Executive Office Building.
But there is grit with the glamor: Lunches usually consist of cold sandwiches consumed al desko.
Stephanie Mansfield, "The Last Memo; The White House Secretaries, After the Firing," The Washington Post, January 30, 1981
Al desko is a clever play on the adverb alfresco, which means "outdoors" or "in the open air."

In the US, most states are currently adopting an upgrade approach. While smart grid technology offers the possibility of revolutionizing the industry rapidly, it is more likely that the US will take an evolutionary path to smart. This is primarily due to the US's decentralized regulation environment. Each state has its own regulatory process, which can be challenging, particularly for multi-jurisdictional utilities. In addition, both regulators and utilities recognize that smart technology is still evolving and that it will take time to implement both the physical infrastructure and supporting business processes required to reap the full benefits of smart.
A criticism of smart grid stimulus efforts has been that deployments are happening before proper standards have been defined. In the US, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) received $10 million from ARRA to develop such standards, and identified five fundamental sets of standards for smart grid interoperability and cyber security that are now ready for consideration by federal and state regulators. In September 2010, it released "Guidelines for Smart Grid Cyber Security", part of the industry's efforts to establish clear security guidelines and a prerequisite for implementing other standards. This could further accelerate adoption of smart technologies by removing some of the uncertainty surrounding them.
How smart metering and the smart grid infrastructure will impact the US's power and utilities companies largely depends on where they sit in the value chain and in which geographical markets they participate. Regulators, if faced with consumer opposition, may fear allowing utilities to expose full time-based electricity costs to consumers, reducing the benefits sought by smart meter deployment. This in turn could delay the growth of built-in home area networks and other consumer-facing technology.
It would be difficult to overstate how much smart investment impacts functional processes and IT systems across the organization. Performance improvement, operational efficiency, effective value chain management as well as robust change and risk management are essential to secure the ongoing smart rollout in the US.
Longer term, as P&U companies leverage performance improvement and operational efficiencies, there will be opportunities to capitalize on market and customer data to offer other value-adding smart services. Many companies will need to go to market under partnership arrangements with other providers to provide unique offerings.
Public funding, matched by private capital investment, is expected to result in market penetration of advanced meters of 47% by 2020.
Significant funding has been allocated to smart projects to address North America's aging transmission grid, which has been described as "inadequate and congested". Public funding, matched by private capital investment, is expected to result in market penetration of advanced meters of 47% by 2020.
Some smart projects have suffered from a lack of consumer education and concerns over inaccurate billing and privacy. The type of meters also varies and no standards have been agreed. Utilities must work hard to overcome these technical and customer challenges to see the benefits of smart.
Reliability — The massive power outage of August 2003, which left 50 million US and Canadian citizens in the dark and accounted for billions in financial losses, highlighted the vulnerabilities of the aging North American transmission grid. Estimates for modernizing the grid were put at US$50 billion.
In fact, the 2003 publication of the US Department of Energy's Grid 2030: A National Vision for Electricity's Second 100 Years pre-dated the power outage by just one month. The report calls for grid modernization to support accessible, abundant, reliable and affordable electric power to support an increasingly digital economy.
Over the past decade, according to the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), transmission capacity has increased by 18% while consumption has risen by 35%. US utilities recognize that smart grid technologies are critical to maintaining reliability and managing load growth. Unless smart technologies are implemented, the power and utilities sector would have to add significantly more generation and transmission capacity – to meet the projected load growth – than it will with smart technologies.
Energy conservation and distributed renewable energy — There is widespread political and regulatory support for smart grid technologies as a means to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy sources.
US politicians and industry participants alike have long viewed energy efficiency as the cheapest source of capacity for the US electric industry. According to the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE), currently 33 states are engaged in some form of demand-response policy-making (where the timing of demand for power can be altered or reduced in response to signals from the utility, usually to reduce peak demand). EPRI estimates that nationwide smart meter installation could reduce electricity use by more than 4% annually by 2030, resulting in cost savings to consumers and businesses of over US$20 billion per year.
Several states have decoupled rates (revenues are not tied to increased electricity sales) for electric, gas or both, alleviating the financial pressure placed on utilities when they sell less electricity due to energy conservation programs. In addition, a number of utilities, such as Arizona Public Service, have introduced new rates structures that promote load reduction during peak periods.
Smart grids also enable utilities to integrate distributed renewable energy sources such as roof-top solar and wind into their systems. These intermittent distributed generation sources, along with the growth in electric vehicles, will require smarter grid controls for load balancing.
Climate change — While the US does not have a federal mandate for a carbon emissions reduction target, and the issue is unlikely to be resolved soon( particularly near the presidential election in 2012), many states are undertaking initiatives aimed at addressing climate change.
Examples of state-level activities include California's AB32 climate bill and the 10-state Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative.
Likewise, all but 13 US states have some form of renewable or alternative energy portfolio standard or target on the books. The integration of large amounts of intermittent renewables into the grid in coming years will require smart grid technology investment.
In the US, 38 states are undertaking deployment of smart meters, with close to 69 million meters expected to be installed by 2019. California is the most advanced state, with a complete rollout expected by 2013; all states except Alaska have planned or begun rollout of some form of smart meters or smart metering program.
Advanced metering installation rose from 1% of households in 2006 to 4.7% in 2009. Public funding, matched by private capital investment, is expected to result in market penetration of 47% by 2020. Currently, there are 16.5 million meters installed in the US, with another 34.2 million approved.
The US recognizes that smart grid technologies offer a number of benefits: the potential to deliver reliable, secure and acceptable electricity resources while promoting economic growth in an environmentally responsible manner. Public and private funds for smart are projected at US$7.3 billion for 2011. Over the next 20 years, the smart grid build-out is estimated to cost in the region of US$2 trillion.
The government has offered a mix of incentives to promote this investment.
The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 granted US$100 million annual investments between 2008 and 2012. The funding, by way of federal loans and contributions, allowed for five smart demonstration projects.
Meanwhile, the 2008 Emergency Economic Stabilization Act eased the cost burden by reducing tax depreciation on smart meter and smart grid investments from 20 years to 10 years.
Most significant, however, was the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), which called for US$4.5 billion in smart grid funding to jump-start the modernization of the US transmission and distribution grid. Five million meters have been installed with funding from that program so far.
The program included a US$3.4 billion Smart Grid Investment Grant (SGIG) program for 100 projects, matched by industry funding. Selected awardees include investor-owned municipal and cooperative utilities, transmission companies, manufacturers and other interested parties.
Eleven of the largest smart projectsunder way in the US
Unfortunately, in some states, negative consumer reactions and confusion have resulted in legal battles or political intervention. Early rollouts raised consumer concerns about inflated meter readings and therefore substantially high billing amounts. However, after numerous studies confirmed the accuracy of the meter readings, those protests died down.
Other protests have surfaced over privacy concerns. State commissioners believe that it will take a major effort to resolve this issue, including changing state laws to allow utilities to release energy consumption data to consumers.
A recent study by the non-profit Smart Grid Consumer Collaborative (2011 State of the Consumer Report) finds that few Americans are "energy literate". State regulators are calling for early collaboration between utilities and consumer advocates to promote smart technology adoption. There is also tougher action being taken when this is not done. For example, in June 2010, the smart meter rollout proposal of Baltimore Gas and Electric utility was turned down, citing inadequate levels of education programs for customers and the aspect of the entire cost burden being borne by the customers being unacceptable.
A criticism of smart grid stimulus efforts has been that deployments are happening before proper standards have been defined. In the US, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) received $10 million from ARRA to develop such standards, and identified five fundamental sets of standards for smart grid interoperability and cyber security that are now ready for consideration by federal and state regulators. In September 2010, it released "Guidelines for Smart Grid Cyber Security", part of the industry's efforts to establish clear security guidelines and a prerequisite for implementing other standards. This could further accelerate adoption of smart technologies by removing some of the uncertainty surrounding them.

Will my camera connection kit that I bought for my iPad 1 work with the iPad 3?
This is a discussion on Camera Connection Kit?? within the iPad 3 Forum forums, part of the Apple iPad Discussions category; Will my camera connection kit that I bought for my iPad 1 work with the iPad 3?...
Will my camera connection kit that I bought for my iPad 1 work with the iPad 3?
Yes, though I have not tried it - I am pretty sure that apple has not produced a different camera connection kit. I got one with the new iPad and it does not say anything about which generation it is for.
Apple sent me a free one in the mail the other day since my new iPad arrived damaged and I tried it a few minutes ago with an SD card full of photos and it recognized the kit but said there were no photos to import. I put some photos in the root directory as well as the DCIM directory but to no avail. I also shut down and restarted. The kit worked fine on the iPad 2 that I sold to a friend yesterday.
Mickeylittle, I would try it with a different SD card - or a different iPad3 to eliminate the possibility that your iPad is having a problem or the SD card has something wrong with it, or the connection kit is borked.
I had no problem connecting the one I got to the iPad3.
I just used mine to plug in a 16GB SD card from one of my cameras. It does pop up with a list of photos to import. So, I would say it works just fine!

Yep used mine several times (I use the iPad as a first pass delete of RAW files before importing into Lightroom), both sd card and my created in the dark ages belkin card reader for my cf cards.Originally Posted by AQ_OC
Thanks guys, it's obviously just me! I'll figure it out sometime on down the road. If it works on my wife's unit I'm sure not sending my new iPad in just because this doesn't work!
Like I said it worked on an iPad 2 yesterday so when she gets home I'll try it on hers and I really hope it doesn't work on hers.
It works perfectly fine, I have it for my iPad 3 and I use it to import videos recorded with my iPhone 4s and then I edit them on my iPad and it imports the videos and photos pretty quickOriginally Posted by Cathart

American Masters "Joffrey: Mavericks of American Dance"
(Rochester, NY) – Uncover the history and background of the Joffrey Ballet, the first quintessentially American dance company to move beyond traditional ballet classics. American Masters "Joffrey: Mavericks of American Dance" premieres Sunday, December 30, 2012 at 2 p.m. on WXXI-TV/HD (DT21.1/cable 1011 and 11). Learn about the founders of the Joffrey Ballet and their defiance of the status quo in search of creation and expression.
Founders Robert Joffrey and Gerald Arpino pioneered a new dance philosophy by daringly combining modern and traditional techniques and art with social statement, and integrating pop and rock music scores. At its peak of success in the 1960s and 1970s, the Joffrey Ballet was reviving classic dance features while simultaneously creating original works. Currently based in Chicago, the Joffrey Ballet features classically trained dancers and a unique vision for a dance company. Tracing the struggles and triumphs of the company from 1956 to the present, "Joffrey: Mavericks of American Dance" features interviews with former and current Joffrey dancers, the breakthroughs of choreographers Twyla Tharp, Laura Dean and Margo Sappington, and rare archival performance footage. Excerpts from signature works Astarte, Trinity and Billboards are featured. Award-winning American actor and tenor Mandy Patinkin narrates.

Japan's Toray to spend $555 million on production boost
TOKYO, March 9 (BSS/AFP) - Japan's Toray Industries said Friday it will invest more than half a billion dollars to boost synthetic materials production and meet soaring global demand for the stuff of next generation aircraft.
Toray, which supplies the carbon fibre for Boeing's 787
Dreamliner aircraft, said it was spending $555 million at plants
in Japan, the US, France and South Korea as part of a plan to
increase worldwide production by around 50 percent.
The company said the money would go toward ramping up annual
production to 27,100 tonnes by March 2015.
About 90 percent of the demand for carbon fibre comes from
outside Japan, but the company said half of the investment will
be domestic, using a government subsidy to promote job creation.
Three hundred jobs will be created worldwide, with half of
them in Japan, it said. The company said its bases in Japan were
"mother plants" that would concentrate on producing advanced
materials and act as the base for developing new technologies and
new products.
The investment in the United States will be aimed at meeting
the demand from the expanding market for environmental and
energy-related applications, including natural gas pressure
vessels used in the extraction of shale gas, it said.
"Toray Group also plans to further expand the business for
the Latin American market, mainly Brazil, where the market is
expected to grow rapidly in the future," it said.

Just as a side note....
, 5th October 2012 at 09:27 PM (696 Views)
A couple of people have asked me if people they've seen posting as "Archaic" on 4chan are me.
I haven't posted there (or even browsed there really) since B2W2 came out in Japan. I don't even remember my trip anymore, and would need to register another before I posted there again. Unless I actually post a new trip to this blog, you can safely assume that anyone claiming to me there isn't me.

With just two games left in the regular season, Executive Vice President of Football Operations John Elway joined Broncos TV's Chris Hall Tuesday for another edition of "Elway Live." The former Broncos quarterback talked about current quarterback Tim Tebow's progression this season, helping Broncos quarterbacks in the offseason, and the Broncos ability to put points on the board in the first quarter last week.
Just about the only thing Elway didn't talk about was the one thing most Broncos fans can't stop thinking about — the Broncos' playoff chances.
"We don't like to look that far ahead," Elway said. "I'm a little bit superstitious when it comes to those type of things. We can hopefully talk about the playoffs next week or the following week. But until we get there, I don't want to jinx us or any of those Broncos fans out there. We've got to get there first and then we'll be glad to talk about it."
One of the key players in the Broncos recent stretch that has jumped them into postseason discussions is Tebow. Elway said the second-year quarterback continued to make strides Sunday, despite the loss on the scoreboard.
One throw that Elway like in particular was a 39-yard pass to Demaryius Thomas on third-and-18 in the fourth quarter. New England was playing zone coverage and after a few second in the pocket, Tebow, showing his arm strength, hurled a pass to the right sideline which Thomas caught with ease
"He's got a strong arm, that's not a question whether Tim has enough arm or not," Elway said. "He can make some spectacular throws like that one to Demaryius which was 39 yards against two-deep coverage and you have to get it there in a hurry. He made that throw."
"When you look at the body of work when we talk about this year, when you look at each game that is played, we're very encouraged that he keeps improving week-in and week-out," Elway said.
Elway also discussed the possibility of providing tutelage to the Broncos quarterbacks in the offseason. With the unique nature of this past offseason, Elway wasn't able to spend time with the quarterbacks in his first year as a Broncos Front Office employee. However, he says that when this offseason rolls around, there will be plenty of time for him to get with the position group he mastered as a player.
"Heck, I want to help all of the quarterbacks here," Elway said. "That's what I played and have a lot of experience in that area. There's a lot of things I can help them with. Not only in the techniques of throwing the ball and footwork, but also understand the game, game management and looking at all those type things. I look forward to that…Once we get into the offseason I want to be able to help all the quarterbacks who are here."
One thing that the current coaches have helped the Broncos with over the past few weeks has been starting off fast in each game. The Broncos were able to succeed in that department Sunday, scoring on their first three possessions, something the Broncos haven't done all year.
"It was a mindset going in, everyone realized that we had to get started earlier," Elway said. "That was part of the concentration last week and focus coming out of the locker room and playing well from play one – on. Hopefully we can do that again this week."
