Their funerals are scheduled to take place on Friday.Itzik Colangi and Amir Menashe were good friends from Petah Tikva. Colangi's wife GIlat gave birth to their first child, Noya, four months ago, and his birthday was two weeks ago. The couple decided to celebrate in Burgas with their friends Natalie and Amir Menashe, who have a ten-month-old son, Rom. Gilat was severely injured and Natalie was lightly injured from the terrorist attack, while Itzik and Amir were killed while packing their luggage onto the bus.Colangi's funeral will be on Friday at 10:30 at the Segula Cemetery in Petah Tikva. Menashe's will be one hour later, in the same place.Elior Price, a student, and Maor Harosh, an electrician, grew up together in Acre and went on vacation to Bulgaria with another close friend, Daniel Fahima. Harosh and Price were killed, while Fahima was severely injured.Kochava Shriki of Rishon Lezion, was pregnant for the first time after years of fertility treatments. She gave her family the good news shortly before leaving for vacation in Bulgaria with her husband Yitzhak. After the attack, Yitzhak, who was injured, searched for Kochava in the rubble and in the hospital in Bulgaria, and learned of her death a day later.Thirty-three people wounded in the bus bombing a landed in Israel at 2:30 on Thursday afternoon
at Ben-Gurion airport and were immediately transferred by ambulance to
area hospitals. The majority of the victims that returned on Thursday
were lightly injured though four were injured seriously or critically.The terror attack targeting Israeli tourists killed at least seven people in the city of Burgas, soon after a
charter plane, Air Bulgaria flight 392 arrived from Ben-Gurion Airport.
The seven included five Israelis, the bus driver and the suicide bomber,
according to the Foreign Ministry. A second Israel Air Force
plane carrying three people seriously wounded in the attack landed at Ben Gurion Airport on Thursday night.An IDF doctor said that the three, who were seriously injured in the attack, underwent surgery in Bulgaria before being returned home.They were being transferred to Sheba Medical Center at Tel Hashomer, Rabin Medical Center - Beilinson Campus in Petah Tikva and Sourasky Medical Center in Tel Aviv.
Brigadier-General (Brig.-Gen.) Dr. Itzik Kreiss commended the Bulgarian
medical services for fully cooperating with Israeli doctors. He also
credited the hospitals with saving the lives of some of the victims."It's
not always nice to be Israeli, but this is a country that knows, within
24 hours, how to bring back all of her wounded and injured from every
place in the world, it makes it a little easier," said Kreiss.Kreiss,
who accompanied the first flight from Bulgaria, said the injuries were
consistent with other bus bombings, including broken limbs, cuts, burns,
and multiple injuries. Kreiss added that he did not see any children
under the age of 18 but could not confirm there were no children
injured. Kreiss said that some of the people were in a good mental state
and some were less good. "Unfortunately, it's the same mental state as
we have seen in many instances that this has happened here," he said.

High school boys basketball: Mountain View maintains composure to down Timpanogos
Matt Gade, Deseret News
OREM — Closing out games has been a problem for Mountain View's boys basketball team this season, but that certainly wasn't the case Tuesday night in the Bruins' 61-58 win over crosstown rival Timpanogos.
In the game's final minutes, the Bruins showed poise, hit their free throws and ultimately walked away with a big region win at home.
Doing as much hasn't always been easy for Mountain View this season.
"Closing out games — that's kind of been our Achilles' heel," said Mountain View coach Nate Carling. "We've been ahead with four minutes to play in every game this year, and we've won most of them, but we've lost three of them with that lead and it came down to free throws in those games we lost."
Mountain View made its free throws down the stretch Tuesday night to stave off a hard-charging and determined Timberwolves team.
It didn't start all that pretty from the line in the game's final minute, however. With just less than a minute remaining, and the Bruins clinging to a 56-53 lead, Mountain View missed the front end of a one-and-one.
Timpanogos responded to the miss with a driving layup from Zach Facemyer to cut Mountain View's lead to 56-55. A foreboding sense of deja vu began to creep over the Bruins' sideline.
"Yeah, that first miss wasn't a good way to start, but we made our shots after that," Carling said.
Mountain View's Spencer Conrad calmly sank both his free throws on the next possession, and after another Facemyer bucket cut the lead to 58-57 with 17 seconds left, Conrad sank two more.
"I'm grateful we got over that hump and knocked them in," Carling said. "I've challenged the kids to be mentally tough and knock those in when they need to. I'm proud they responded and got it done tonight."
Despite Mountain View's clutch foul shooting, Timpanogos wouldn't go away and found itself down 61-58 in possession of the ball with 6.8 seconds remaining. A last-second 3-point attempt from Jake Severe just glanced off the rim, however, as Mountain View won in regulation.
The Bruins were led by Manual Ortiz and his game-high 24 points. The senior forward started slow, but did his best work at the start of the fourth quarter to build a lead that his team ultimately held on to.
"You could kind of see it in his eye that he wanted to make a difference and an impact on the game," Carling said about Ortiz. "He kind of forced one early, but he kept it together, wanted to make an impact. I'm just proud of his leadership."
Wyatt Allred and Ryan Warner added 17 and 11 points, respectively, for the Bruins.
Timpanogos was led by Facemyer and his team-high 22 points.
With the win Mountain View improves to 14-3 on the year and 5-2 in Region 7 play. Next up for the Bruins is a home game versus Murray on Friday.
Timpanogos falls to 6-12 and 1-6 with the loss. The Timberwolves host Orem Friday.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WZZM) -- A donation to the City of Grand Rapids will allow children to use city pools for free next summer.
Businessman Bob Sullivan is donating $50,000. Some of the money will be used to build a basketball court at Fourth Street Woods Park in Grand Rapids. The rest is for the city's swimming program, which should make admission free for children in 2015.
Four years ago, Sullivan donated money to have the Richmond Park pool open.
EAST GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WZZM) - Many roads in West Michigan are still snow covered or icy because of the relentless snow over the past couple of days.
But there's also concern about sidewalks not being shoveled.
We looked into the issue and learned that policies vary from community to community. In Grand Rapids and Alpine Township property owners are required to clean their sidewalks.
In East Grand Rapids the city will do it but they can't plow down to the pavement.
"With a snow plow plowing the sidewalks we have to keep it one or two inches above the sidewalk or we'll be chipping the sidewalk and actually wrecking the vehicles in doing that," says Brian Donovan the City Manager for East Grand Rapids.
The United Way says they have been flooded with calls from people who need help shoveling.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WZZM) -- Anyone fed up with shoveling their driveway is probably out of luck.
The winter storm has led to a run on snow blowers.
At Alpine Rent-All, the entire stock of snow blowers quickly disappeared off the showroom floor by Tuesday.
"We spoke with a person just five minutes ago -- we said, Come on down, we have three' -- and by the time he got here, we had one left," said manager Bob Cegelis. "To be sold out by November 30 or sooner is unprecedented for us."
Alpine Rent-All still has some snowblowers to rent and hopes to have more blowers to sell in the weeks to come.
(WZZM) - The morning commute around West Michigan was treacherous to say the least.
Dozens of slide-offs and accidents were reported around the area. Most area highways were running well below posted speeds.
Trash pickup has been canceled in the city of Grand Rapids today. It is delayed one day.
US-131 has been closed southbound at Howard City. SB I-196 is also closed after Blue Star Highway in Allegan County. I-94 in Calhoun County has a lane closure due to a hazmat spill. Other highways have had lane blockages or short closures.

GRAND RAPIDS (WZZM) -- A Grand Rapids brewery is celebrating a milestone on Saturday.

Fifteen special brews were on tap: the most they've ever had available to customers.
Since its first anniversary The Mitten's taproom has doubled in size, including the addition of a second floor and a patio.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WZZM) -- West Catholic collected its fifth straight Division 5 regional title Friday, Nov. 14, after defeating Reed City 56-28.
The Falcons (12-0) scored 28 points in the second quarter and led 42-14 at halftime.
Senior quarterback Travis Russell threw for six touchdowns and rushed for two scores in the victory.
West Catholic will play the winner of Saturday's game between Menominee and Freeland in next Saturday's semifinals.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WZZM) - More-Self-Less, a West Michigan non-profit organization devoted to encouraging community involvement, is hoping to give Christmas to those who otherwise couldn't afford it.

Politics: Has corruption tainted even the battle over free trade? If not, why has the White House buried its own study of a jobs "retraining" program that it insists Congress must vote for as a condition for signing three trade deals?
A Labor Department study on the effectiveness of Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA), a $1.3 billion program for workers who claim their jobs were lost to foreign competition, has not only missed its deadline by four years, but is also being withheld until the end of the year, the Wall Street Journal reports.
Based on how this White House operates, it's virtually certain they're hiding the results. Other studies show the TAA program to be a big failure. But President Obama wants Congress to pass it as a condition for his submitting the U.S. free trade treaty with South Korea to Congress for a vote. As ex-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said: "You have to pass the bill to find out what's in it."
That's worth thinking about, because right now principled Republicans, such as Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch and Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell, are taking flak from even business groups for not going along with this pork.
Their reasons are understandable. The three stalled free trade deals — with Colombia, Panama and South Korea — will bring in $10 billion to $13 billion in sales for American producers, creating 250,000 new jobs.
The Obama administration, not so much. President Obama wants TAA to pacify unions, which vehemently oppose free trade. It doesn't hurt that 50% of TAA beneficiaries are union members, even though they make up just 6% of the private workforce.
But the $1.5 billion price tag of TAA amounts to a pretty hefty sales tax, even if the program were effective.
Problem is, it's not. That's why the Obama administration doesn't want the results to be known. It's a bad deal for workers and taxpayers, and has no place in the free trade debate. Congress will begin marking up the bill Thursday, but will use other studies to do so.
Those studies have clear conclusions.
For starters, TAA is wasteful. Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., released a report earlier this year showing that the $18 billion the government already spends on job training programs are full of waste, fraud and abuse.
A 2008 American University study by Kara Reynolds and John Palatucci concluded the same, declaring TAA "of dubious value in terms of helping displaced workers find new, well-paying employment opportunities."
Meanwhile, a 2003 study from the Office of Management and Budget called TAA downright "ineffective."
Also, it duplicates other programs. Trade-blogger David Almasi cites a GAO report earlier this year that shows, as of 2009, there were already 47 different federal jobs programs administered by nine different federal agencies. And 44 of those duplicated other efforts.
Finally, it cheats workers. The GAO study found that workers in the TAA program made less money in their new jobs than workers who hadn't benefited from the 156-week program.
A Heritage Foundation study of academic papers also found that TAA training tends not to boost wages.
Aside from waste, tacking TAA onto the Korea treaty presents legal problems — trade attorney Scott Lincicome believes it may violate World Trade Organization rules by raising tariffs to "pay for" TAA in a supposed free trade treaty.
Even if that's not the case, it shows how contradictory the premise of forcing TAA onto treaties is. It's based on the idea that free trade leads to job losses, which doesn't stand up to facts.
"Very few people become unemployed because of import competition," notes Cato trade economist Sallie James. "A study by labor economist James Sherk found that only about 1% of unemployment can be attributed to competition from international trade."
But because workers who can claim their job losses are due to imports get special benefits, a perverse incentive is created to blame all job losses on trade.
"Unions and other anti-trade zealots gleefully use TAA data to make the case that trade causes outsourcing and job loss," Hatch noted last week. "In the end TAA really is just a government subsidy for anti-trade propaganda."
That seems to be the picture now, especially after the Obama Labor Department refuses to release its TAA study. What is it hiding?

Kigali: Rwanda Monday began a week of activities to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Rwandan genocide that saw the massacre of some 800,000 Tutsi victims.
Preparations in Rwanda Sunday for the commemorations for the 20th anniversary of the genocide were overshadowed by a major spat with France amid renewed allegations that Paris was complicit in the killings.
Paris court delivered France`s first-ever conviction for genocide, sentencing a Rwandan former intelligence chief to 25 years in prison over the 1994 killings of at least 500,000 people in the African country.
The beleaguered refugees from Syria are fleeing the conflict-stricken country at an alarming rate, worse since Rwanda genocide of 1994, UN refugee chief Antonio Guterres said.
Bernard Munyagishari was wanted on charges of genocide and other crimes. At least 500,000 ethnic Tutsis and moderate Hutus were killed during Rwanda`s genocide.
A former journalist was sentenced to life in prison for her role in inciting genocide in Rwanda, local groups said on Monday, in the latest of a series of trials for the 1994 slaughter.
Survivor groups from Rwanda`s genocide say they may stop sending witnesses to UN tribunal in Tanzania, in protest at recent acquittals of 2 suspects.

The latest features the squad (Ben Gore, Yonnie Cruz, Abdias Rivera) getting some in Seattle to the sounds of old school horn-sampled hip hop.

NPR visits This Spartan Life
I've you've never seen This Spartan Life before, it's a machinima talk show that takes place entirely in Halo 2. The show's host, Damian Lacedaemion (producer, writer and director Chris Burke), is a Spartan soldier who interviews guests and covers topics from politics to publishing and filmmaking all while inside the game, and usually on the Headlong map, their standing "set."
On this weekend's episode of Studio 360, host Kurt Andersen suited up and interviewed Damian in the game for National Public Radio, and This Spartan Life has in turn published video of the segment on their site. What's pretty impressive to learn is that all of the hours of Halo 2 played online cumulatively add up to more then 10,000 years worth of Spartan living, all without any apparent evolution. We can only imagine the smell in Master Chief's armor by now.
Listen to Studio 360's show here, and check out the video after the jump. If only the regular news was covered like this, more people might tune in.

Price: 500 Wii Points
Time management games are a popular part of casual gaming. They are quick, easy, and addictive, and we have Diner Dash to blame for the endless incarnations that are out based on this genre alone. Airport Mania is an interesting take on the time management variety; there's no cafes or food or babies in this one. You're in charge of landing and managing planes, loading them up with passengers and sending the flights on their merry way. As you progress into each stage, the airports become busier especially with added elements such as repairs, fuel stations, repainting, and even in-flight movies.
If this concept sounds familiar, that's because it is based off a PC game that was also released on the iPhone as well. However, instead of some lazy, uninspired ports that we've seen on Wiiware, this one is actually worth its Wii Points. The controls are simple, just point and click at what you want to operate. The colourful, cute graphics are appealing to the eye. More importantly, the game involves more depth than you'd expect for casual gaming.
After each stage, you are given the chance to buy upgrades for your airport, including more gates, more room, and upgraded gates. You can earn bonuses for more efficiency such as chaining your take-offs and landings, early arrivals and departures, and treating special planes with the care they deserve which leads to a higher score – which means you get to purchase more upgrades in the long run. With these aspects, there's an appropriate amount of depth for different skill levels.
Airport Mania is definitely one of the better games out there for the Wiiware platform. It's not often that we see Wiiware titles that work well in both concept and gameplay, and while Airport Mania is based on a simple concept, it's executed well. While it may be a little too easy for seasoned gamers, it's still an enjoyable ride, especially at its low price point.

Kahui to make the move to Japan
Wed, 13 Feb 2013 08:38
I have had my fair share injuries
Chiefs and All Black midfielder Richard Kahui has announced that he will leave New Zealand at the end of the Super Rugby season to play in Japan.
The injury-prone backline ace has confirmed he will play for the Japanese Toshiba club for two seasons after seeing out the 2013 season with the Chiefs.
"I love being a Chief, but it is no secret that I have had my fair share injuries which have forced me to make some very hard decisions about my future and make the most of the opportunities while I can," Kahui told the Waikato Times.
Chiefs' coach Dave Rennie said: "Richard has been an outstanding member of the Chiefs family, having played over 50 games for us.
"I have been really impressed with him as a man, as a player and as a leader within our group.
"He has an opportunity to set himself up for his future and we are fully supportive of what he is doing and hope to get him back for 2015."
Kahui has played 17 Tests for the All Blacks since his debut in 2008, scoring 10 tries.

Presbyterian mistake
Church Illustrative.
(photo credit:Wikimedia Commons)
The General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church (USA) voted last week to divest from three American companies that do business with Israel. The reason given by the assembly's Stated Clerk Rev. Gradyne Parsons was, "We as a church cannot profit from the destruction of [Palestinian] homes and lives."The church will divest from Caterpillar, because its bulldozers have been used to demolish Palestinian homes (even though the same bulldozers are used to take down illegal Jewish outposts). It will drop Hewlett-Packard, because the Israel Navy has used its products to coordinate the blockade of the Gaza Strip (ruled by a terrorist organization that uses violence to enforce Islamic law that discriminates against women and religious minorities such as Christians) and because its biometric scanners are in place at checkpoints (where they help make it easier for the IDF to check for terrorists).It will divest from Motorola Solutions, because the IDF buys the company's communication technologies (which are used to defend Israel from its many enemies).Although Methodists and Presbyterians tend to be the most aggressively anti-Israel among liberal protestant denominations, all five of the mainline denominations – which include the Episcopalian, Evangelical Lutheran, and United Church of Christ – have debated and in some cases adopted policies intended to bring direct or indirect economic pressure on Israel to make concessions to the Palestinians.Why are liberal protestant denominations so prone to singling out Israel for castigation? Catholics tend to be more even-handed regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.Evangelical Christians are often outright pro-Zionist in their outlook.Part of the answer has to do with theology. Though for most of their history Catholics adhered to a rabidly anti-Semitic narrative that held Jews responsible for deicide and doomed them to wander the world powerless and victimized, the Church underwent a major reform called Vatican II in the mid-1960s that radically improved its approach to Jews and Judaism.Evangelical Christians' philo-Semitism is more deeply rooted.With their fundamentalist reading of the Bible, they take seriously the promise made by God to Abraham and his offspring that the Land of Israel was given to them. There is the additional motivation based on belief in the verse in Genesis 12:3 where God tells Abraham, "I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curse thee." Also a factor is the messianic and macabre belief that the Land of Israel is the future stage for a heavenly apocalypse: Before Christ can return to Earth, the Jews must return to Israel and the Temple must be restored, ushering in first a time of tribulation during which Jews must accept Christ or face destruction.In contrast, liberal Protestant sects tend to have a less literal reading of the Gospel. They are, as a result, more likely to contemporize the fight to establish the kingdom of God as a call to support progressive political causes. Lacking a moral code grounded in scripture or tradition or common sense, theology turns into moral relativism. Their sincere desire to pursue justice might be motivated by a vague concept of faith. But implementation often puts them under the sway of organizations with rabidly anti-Zionist or even anti-American agendas.Unsurprisingly, mainline American churches have been more critical of their own country and Israel than they have of such human rights abusers as China, North Korea, and Saudi Arabia, not to mention Hamas in Gaza and the Palestinian Authority on the West Bank.Another factor is the prominence of liberation theology, a continual mindset of victimhood to solicit political sympathy and action on behalf of the "oppressed" against the "oppressors" and replacement theology, which holds that the church – in particular Palestinian Christians – has replaced Israel as the Jesus-like oppressed underdog.It is dangerous to allow irrational theologies of any kind to inform one's politics, whether these politics are pro-Zionist or anti-Zionist. Christians of all stripes should, instead, inform themselves about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and reach their own conclusions based on reason, not theology. Intellectual honesty will lead any inquirer to admit at the very least that the issues are complicated.By taking a stand in favor of divestment the Presbyterians of America are saying that they have figured out who is right and who is wrong in the conflict. And they have done this based either on the influence of irrational theology or a biased, radical left-wing agenda. As a result, some of the worst human rights offenders go unpunished by the mainline churches, while Israel is singled out for special censure.

I have added a key listener to a tree in SWT and when i press Alt+Enter the state of the key event is keyCode = 65536 and statemask = 0, when it should have been keyCode='\r' and statemask=65536.
Below is the code snippet i have written-
mViewer.getTree().addListener(SWT.KeyDown, new Listener() {
public void handleEvent(Event e) {
if(e.keyCode == SWT.CR && e.stateMask == SWT.ALT) {
e.doit = false;
Eclipse workbench filters some of the events before delegating the events to the listeners in the components. Is there a way i can disable the alt+enter to not execute the show properties in eclipse on one of the treeviewers?

Top-ranked Djokovic tops Federer to win ATP finalsTHe Associated Press | November 13,2012LONDON Even when Roger Federer had the lead, Novak Djokovic had the answers.
The top-ranked Serb recovered from early breaks in both sets and beat Federer 7-6 (6), 7-5 Monday in the championship match at the ATP finals.
Federer broke Djokovics serve to take a quick 2-0 lead in the first set, and then again to open to the second set, but the worlds No. 1 player rebounded each time.
The crowd at the O2 Arena was decidedly in Federers favor, but they cheered loudly throughout the match as both made spectacular shots.
The highlight for Federer came in the tiebreaker with Djokovic holding his second set point.
Djokovic hit a forehand drop shot with Federer up at the net. The ball drifted past the second-ranked Swiss star, but he chased it down and whacked a forehand winner to even the score at 6-6.
Two points later, Djokovic was the one celebrating, ending the set with a forehand winner on his third set point.
Federer broke Djokovic for the third time at the start of the second set and then held all the way to 5-3. A game later and serving for the set, Federer had two set points but he put a forehand wide and then a forehand into the net. Two more Federer mistakes put Djokovic back on serve and back on track for the title.
The Serb closed it out with a backhand passing winner to improve his head-to-head record against Federer to 3-2 this year, and 13-16 overall.
It was Djokovics second victory at the year-end tournament for the top eight players in the world. He also won in 2008, when the tournament was in Shanghai.
Federer, who is now 15-3 in Britain this year after winning his seventh Wimbledon title and the Olympic silver medal, had been looking for his record seventh title.MORE IN Wire SportsPASADENA, Calif.

Jessie Vetter's goalie mask includes actual gold
Jan 6, 2014, 3:53 PM EST
When I saw this tweet, I had to ask some questions:
Yes, it is true. U.S. goalie Jessie Vetter will have gold on her helmet in Sochi.
Vetter, 28, is a candidate to start for the U.S. She started the 2010 Olympic gold-medal game and the 2013 World Championships gold-medal game.
"Around the edge of the 'USA' gold I used 23 karat gold leafing," designer Ron Slater of Slater Lettering and Graphics said in an email. "Similar to what you would see on old school firetrucks as the lettering."
Slater has been painting for Vetter since she was a freshman at Wisconsin in 2005-06. They tossed ideas back and forth over the summer. Slater drew a sketch and got the thumbs-up in September.
Until now, Vetter has been wearing a mask that Slater designed for her two years ago. The new mask was shipping to Vetter on Monday.
You have to wonder what rival Canada, the three-time reigning Olympic champ, will make of this, given nobody on the U.S. team owns Olympic gold.
Here are more photos of the new mask design via Slater:
