PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti Doctors, troops and rescue teams from around the world hit the ground after the Haiti earthquake on Thursday, but complaints emerged about bottlenecks and delays in getting supplies and aid to the people who needed it.
"People have been almost fighting for water," aid worker Fevil Dubien said as he distributed water from a truck in a northern Port-au-Prince neighborhood.
From Los Angeles, Fairfax, Va., and other places, a handful of rescue teams were able to get down to work, scouring the rubble for survivors, two days after the quake left what theInternational Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies estimated to be 40,000 to 50,000 people dead. In one "small miracle," searchers pulled a security guard alive from beneath the collapsed concrete floors of the U.N. peacekeeping headquarters, where many others were entombed.

TRAVEL: Industry reacts to crisis
The first group of U.S. soldiers — a little more than 100 — from the 82nd Airborne Division landed Thursday in Haiti, the White House said. The troops will find locations to set up tents and other essentials in preparation for the arrival of roughly 800 personnel from the division on Friday. They are to join about 2,200 Marines.
The aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson is slated to arrive Friday with 19 helicopters.
The largest airport in the tiny Caribbean nation was so jammed with relief aircraft that officials temporarily closed it to incoming flights, according to an FAA advisory citing "excessive holding and airport saturation." Later, aid flights from the United States resumed.
On the streets of this capital city, the scene was chaos.
A few blocks from the destroyed Presidential Palace, doctors from the ruined De L Hopital Universite D'etat D' Haiti performed amputations and set broken bones on the streets, tending to the injured with no water or electricity, and few medications, except for over-the-counter pain killers.
Hundreds gathered around the hospital compound. There was no register of patients.
"All of the patients come here," said Guy LaRoche, hospital manager.
At least 2,000 bodies lay in the street, LaRoche said. Most of them were in a makeshift outdoor graveyard, where bodies were stacked on top of one other. An additional 1,000 bodies lay stacked inside the hospital's morgue. Some of the bodies had been brought there by relatives, and others had died at the hospital.
Violaine Bernardin went to the hospital hoping she could find and identify her four children, who had died in the quake. But she was so overwhelmed by the macabre site of so many bodies, many swollen and disfigured, that she turned away.
"I know they are gone," said Bernardin, 39, whose children ages 16 to 20 were in a house that collapsed.
For now, Bernardin wanders the streets because she has no home or money.
"I don't need anything," she said. "I lost my children ... The government will do nothing. In Haiti, they never do anything."
Juilie Exile came to the hospital carrying a 7-month-old baby named Billy who was covered in dust. The baby barely moved or opened his red swollen eyes.
Exile said she and other members of her family were searching the rubble for relatives when they found the boy, whose father died in the quake. Neighbors dug the baby out, she said, adding there is no official help in the neighborhoods.
"It's only neighbors helping neighbors," she said.
A representative for one relief organization expressed frustration that supplies and help seem to be taking some time getting to the people who need them.
On Thursday evening, a flight from Denver carrying supplies was delayed because of congestion at the airport. The flight was carrying 18 metric tons of supplies from World Vision that included tarps, blankets, hygiene kits, cooking equipment and water containers.
"We know we need tents, water and food," Dave Roycen, president and CEO of World Vision Canada, said.
At the White House, President Obama said the U.S. government is making an initial investment of $100 million for the earthquake relief effort in Haiti. He said the amount would grow over the year.
He also said it will take hours, "maybe days," to get the full U.S. relief contingent on the ground because of the damaged roads, airport, port and communications. Obama acknowledged that "none of this will seem quick enough" to the many suffering.
To the Haitians, Obama promised: "You will not be forsaken." He told them that the USA — and the world — "stands with you."
Aid worker Bernice Robertson had one word for what Haiti needs now — "everything."

AMERICANS IN HAITI: Country draws 'special type of person'
Rescue teams struggled Thursday to save the trapped and injured, using pickups as ambulances and doors as stretchers.
Thirty-six U.N. personnel were confirmed dead and nearly 200 remained missing, the head of the world body said. Secretary-General Ban Ki Moon said the U.N.'s mission chief, Hedi Annabi, and his chief deputy, Luis Carlos da Costa, are among roughly 100 people still buried in the rubble of the five-story building.
The United Nations chief said early Thursday morning that rescue teams at the collapsed headquarters building heard "scratching sounds" and located Tarmo Joveer, an Estonian close protection officer, under about 13 feet of rubble. He was given water through a rubber pipe, pulled out and taken to the U.N. mission hospital run by Argentine staff.
As the scope of the devastation became clearer, survivors spoke in terms of all that has disappeared. Most hospitals, houses, schools, roads and grocery stores — virtually every necessity of basic life — were transformed into piles of rubble.
Robertson, an aid worker for the International Crisis Group just outside the ravaged Haitian capital, said people in her neighborhood were digging through wreckage with their bare hands to try to find survivors.
Aid organizations were beginning what they said may be one of the biggest, most complex relief efforts in recent history. The absence of clean water, electricity and medical supplies could result in more deaths in the days ahead unless dramatic action is taken, they said.
"We've never seen anything like this before," said Curt Welling, president and CEO of AmeriCares, an aid organization. "Pretty much all the vital infrastructure in Port-au-Prince seems to have been destroyed. This could all take years to repair."
INTERACTIVE: Map of Haiti and the earthquake zone
Earlier Thursday, planes carrying teams from China, France and Spain landed at Port-au-Prince's airport with searchers and tons of food, medicine and other supplies — with more promised from around the globe. It took six hours to unload a Chinese plane because the airport lacked the needed equipment.
Government convoys carrying water, medical supplies and equipment for moving large debris had reached the Dominican Republic-Haitian border early Thursday.
"It's incredible," Haitian President Rene Preval told CNN. "A lot of people in the street dead. ... I'm still looking to understand the magnitude of the event and how to manage" it.
The earthquake Tuesday evening hit an impoverished, often dysfunctional country that has dealt with more than its fair share of tragedy. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, appearing on television network news shows Thursday after cutting short an overseas trip, said it is still too early to make a firm estimate of the number of deaths. Of the damage in Haiti, Clinton said "the depth and scope is unimaginable."
Since just 2004, Haiti has faced floods, food riots, mudslides, at least five hurricanes and a rebellion that left it briefly without a functioning government, forcing United Nations peacekeeper to take charge. The succession of calamities — made worse by decades of dictatorship and political mismanagement — has led to a country where most people survive on $2 or less a day. Even before the earthquake, Haiti relied on foreign aid for most of its food.
"It's almost as if the country is cursed," said Rep. Eliot Engel, D-N.Y., a member of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
'They can't do anything'
The vacant lot next to the Red Cross Office in Port-au-Prince became a makeshift camp and triage area.
Matthew Marek and his staff began to triage the people, gathering all the medical supplies from their destroyed office and their vehicles. Sometime after midnight, the gauze, bandages and alcohol swabs ran out.
"There were lots of broken bones and things we couldn't treat," Marek said.
The destruction: "It's immense. Neighborhood after neighborhood."
Marek and his staff drove some victims to hospitals and clinics but found such facilities to be overwhelmed. "They can't do anything," he said.
Amy Wilentz, a journalism professor and author of The Rainy Season: Haiti Since Duvalier, said the government has allowed millions of Haitians to build precarious homes on mountains and ravines recently, which also would result in a higher death toll.
"The pictures you're looking at show a terrible wreck, but before the earthquake things were already pretty much a disaster," she said.
The first U.S. ship on the scene, the Coast Guard cutter Forward, was confronted with a "catastrophic" scene, said Cmdr. Diane Durham. "Churches, mansions or corrugated shanties, it doesn't matter. Everybody in this city seems to have been hit."
In the harbor, piers and shipping containers have collapsed into water slickened by an oil spill. Half of the 80 members stationed at the Haitian Coast Guard base are dead, Durham said.
The cutter's helicopter ferried four critically injured people from the American Embassy in Port-au-Prince to a medical facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Hurdles to recovery
Recovery will be hampered by Haiti's poor roads, which makes reaching people in remote areas extremely difficult, said Anna Versluis, a geography professor at Gustavus Adolphus College who studies Haiti.
"Haiti's poverty is a factor. If the goal is to restore what was there before, we're not doing very well because most people didn't have much to begin with," she said.
Welling, the AmeriCares CEO, said Haitians "are a very resilient people" and would get by with sufficient international help.
"You may eventually look back at this and say, 'Haiti is better than it was,' " he said. "But I think in the next few days, we're going to hear an awful lot of horror stories."

Muslimovic missed the clash as he did not have a Swedish passport at the time and although he was told by the match referee it was not essential, he was forced to withdraw from the squad as Swedish authorities insisted anyone who plays for their country must have one.
"I got very angry when they insisted I had to have one so I returned home to Udine. Now I am waiting for a call from someone at the Swedish Federation," he said.
Muslimovic has also been linked with a loan move to Serie B leaders Verona, but despite their strong interest, he insists he will not be leaving Udinese.
"I have heard about their interest. Agents have called Udinese to enquire about me. But there is not a chance I will play Serie B football," he commented.

As many as 285 Indian nationals – many of them average people who never in their life may have harboured animosity towards the Islamic State (IS), despite disproving the group's horrific killings – are among those to find place in the 4,000-odd 'kill list' drawn by a pro-IS group from across the globe. The civilian target list, drawn by pro-IS United Cyber Caliphate and released on Wednesday on its private Telegram channel, gives personal details of the picks, and exhorts lone wolves to find and attack them.
The data in the excel sheet format contains names and addresses of 4,681 random civilians from around 18 countries including US, Britain, Canada, France and India. Jihadi intelligence agencies SITE and Flashpoint undermined the threat from the kill list as the personal details of people were taken from open sources on the web which is freely accessible. The hacking group, UCC, is believed to have 'repackaged' information available in public and collated the details from various platforms into one list, making it to appear like a targeted kill list.
It is thus unlikely that pro-IS supporters hacked a large set of database or is handpicking individual accounts. "While its methods and tactics continue to convey a relatively low and unsophisticated skill set, the group's association with IS creates the potential for real world effects, and high propaganda value,'' Flashpoint analysts reported.
This is the second such kill list, published by the same group this month, to inspire lone wolves to take revenge for Muslims. The list appears to be in line with the IS propaganda which asks followers who can't make the 'hijrah' (migration) to Syria and Iraq for jihad, to act in their countries and kill 'kufars' (non-Muslims) wherever they can find them. Shortly after the Orlando shooting, where a neurotic gunman Omar Mateen opened fire in a nightclub popular among the LGBT community killing 49 and called 911 to pledge his allegiance to IS, the group's supporters started disseminating propaganda calling for individuals to attack people from western countries. Last week, UCC released the first list with 8318 names of nationals from US, Canada, UK and Australia.
The purpose of releasing such a list publicly on web is reflective of the group's tactics to spread fear psychosis amongst general public. Interviews of individuals, whose names appeared in Canada and US, showed they had no idea how their details reached the hands of IS men but are now feeling insecure knowing that the group has information on them. Although not considered of any imminent threat, authorities in US and Canada contacted people in the list to warn them to keep a watch.
Although only a handful of Indians are known to have joined IS and died in fighting, the group has not staged any attack in India. The National Investigating Agency had arrested more than 50 people suspected of subscribing to IS ideology and Caliphate. "We are not aware of the kill list. But the possibility of lone wolves acting cannot be refuted. Agencies are keeping a close watch on such suspects to avert any attack,'' said one senior officer.

PBSO Deputy Donates Kidney To Dispatcher
For Protecting the Palm Beaches, we honor Palm Beach County Sheriff's Deputy Michele Shaffer, who donated a kidney to a department employee.
Heidi Grob is the Sheriff's 911 dispatch supervisor, whose kidneys were damaged at the age of eleven when she underwent cancer treatment. Her condition worsened in the past year and she was heading toward the need for dialysis.
The woman's family members were ruled out as donors, so she turned to her co-workers. 35 people came forward and after lots of testing, it was determined that the best match was airport K-9 handler, Deputy Shaffer.
A couple of weeks later and both women are doing fine.

Battered by the slump in the auto market in recent years, car manufacturers at this year's exhibition are emphasizing safer, practical and more environmentally friendly vehicles. (Photos: Geneva auto show)
But while people are putting aside self-indulgence for the moment, designers say consumers still want quality.
"It's not what you spend anymore, it's getting the most for your money," said Ehab Kaoud, one of Ford's (F) chief designers. "People are no longer willing to accept bad quality.
"The cars look expensive even though they're small and economic. Every car needs to look as perfect as possible in today's environment whether you're spending $10,000 or $20,000. A lot of our cars are B-cars but you feel like you're getting much more than that."
In the spotlight, and taking up much of the show's 826,675 square feet of floor space, were the small cars typically favored in Europe.
Ford showcased its line of tiny Ka models — including the Street Ka, which looks like a toy convertible — and the minuscule 4x4 Fusion van. At Smart's display, the peppy and modern Fortwo and Forfour models had center stage. Citroen featured the colorful C3 and C3 Pluriel.
There was also the Eco Car, which runs on natural gas, and Fiat's 4x4 Panda, named European Car of the Year in a poll of auto journalists, tirelessly proving its solidity on a bucking bronco type apparatus.
"This is our response to the economic crisis," Fiat Marketing Director Claudio Zampini said. "You get a lot for your money. With Fiat, it's a safe, practical car with a good design."
Mini Cooper and Chrysler, which was debuting the performance version of its Crossfire model, also had displays. Volkswagen aimed for affordable quality with its VW Concept C car.
Peugeot, with its tropical setting, waterfalls, fountains, hardwood flooring and turquoise underlit walkways, offered a rare touch of flamboyance on the main floor.
Opel had one of the largest displays for its world premiere unveiling of the Tigra Twintwo — complete with propellor fans, glittering disco lights and screens with giant bubbles.
The back of the hall was home to Rolls-Royce. And BMW's Concept M5, mounted on a fiery, Pompeii orange stage, was hidden in a corner.
Upstairs, the exhibits were more exotic, as were the cars — Pininfarina, Cadillac, Pagani, Bugati, Ferrari and Lamborghini.
The Swiss show, which opens to the public Thursday and runs until March 14, is unique among the world's major car shows, staged in a country with no major auto industry of its own.
Despite its comparatively small size, Geneva's car show will host 262 exhibitors from more than 30 countries, displaying 924 makes and more than 70 world or European premieres in the passenger car sector alone.
The annual exhibition anticipates 700,000 visitors — 300,000 of them from foreign countries.

The orientation of churches is the architectural feature of facing ("orienting") churches towards the east (Latin: oriens).
The Jewish custom of fixing the direction of prayer and orienting synagogues (Mizrah) influenced Christianity during its formative years. In early Christianity, it was customary to pray facing toward the Holy Land. The orientation of churches toward the east has persevered until the present day in a number of Christian denominations.
The orientation of churches towards the east confused some people into seeing Christianity as being sun worshiping.[1]

Breakfast Battles
Reatailers restaurants target morning meals on the move.
You know a product is successful when a mere six weeks after its rollout, a sidekick on "The Howard Stern Show" throws a plate of them at a nude woman.
This new star of morning drive-time is McDonald's McGriddle. The latest salvo in the battle for the on-the-go breakfast customer, the hot breakfast sandwich has been credited by the company for helping boost comparable-store sales by 7 percent in June, the month it was introduced, and nearly 10 percent in July.
"Products like McGriddles and Krispy Kreme donuts are definitely an encroachment into a daypart that is vital to many c-stores, in an industry whose primary dayparts are breakfast and lunch — with breakfast probably the most important," noted David Bishop, of Bishop Consulting Inc., of Barrington, Ill.
If the a.m. customer continues to be diverted, c-store operators will soon be moanin' in the morning. Hot dispensed beverages represent approximately one-third of all c-store foodservice, he noted. What's more, 75 percent of all coffee unit volume is consumed in the morning hours, generally 5 a.m. to 8 a.m.
"Breaking that down, 27 percent of all c-store foodservice business is being driven in three hours in the morning," he said.
Who's after that mobile breakfast customer? Who isn't? The hot fast-casual segment, for instance, has a growing line of breakfast offerings, many new to the on-the-go breakfast customer. Breakfast panini sandwiches anyone? (For more on the fast-casual segment, see "A New World at Breakfast," Page 70.) On the other end of the spectrum, Home Depot is selling Dunkin' Donuts in some locations and testing small McDonald's units in others.
"Our competition is everyone from a mid-scale diner to 7-Eleven to Starbucks or a grocery store — anywhere people are fitting into their morning to stop and eat something," said Lisa Frick, director of concept development, menu management, for McDonald's, based in Oak Brook, Ill. "The difference, in many cases, is convenience. Convenience is inherent in anything on our menu and you can find a McDonald's pretty quickly."
The McGriddle's real strength, however, is its "value offer in serving up a hot breakfast, the best substitute for people who would stay home and make a pancake breakfast themselves," Frick told CSNews. "There is a personal touch to it."
Also driving sales, she said, is taste. "We have a lot of combination meat-and-egg sandwiches, but we were missing the sweet component in the breakfast lineup," she noted. "Donuts or cinnamon rolls are not a key business for us. Our biggest concern is to making sure we give our customers good tasting food."
McDonald's executives had high expectations for the new breakfast entry; so far, all of their sales goals have been "met or exceeded," Frick said, declining to be more specific. "But the bigger measure is we've had nothing but positive feedback from our customers. People are coming to McDonald's specifically for the McGriddle — that is truer for this product than other products we have. It's having a positive impact on our overall breakfast business."
All in the A.M.
Alongside McDonald's, whose restaurants now do 25 to 33 percent of their business from the breakfast menu, other fast feeders are coming on strong in the morning. Last January, Burger King Corp. promoted its Croissan'wich for 99 cents for a limited time, down from the suggested price of $1.59. (Don't be surprised to see a new breakfast item from Burger King, too.)
Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Inc. bought a coffee roasting company, built a state-of-the-art roasting factory in Winston-Salem, N.C., where the company is based, and upgraded its proprietary program with four new drip blends a year ago. Coffee beans are sent to the stores each week, using the same infrastructure used to deliver the chain's dough mix.
"We consider ourselves competing against anyone in the breakfast business, whether it be biscuits, bagel or Danish," said Stan Parker, Krispy Kreme's senior vice president, marketing, noting coffee sales are up since the new coffee rollout.
"We wanted everything to be as good as the original glazed donut, and our beverage offering wasn't. The new line has been positive in terms of quality and what it means for the brand long-term."
What's more, espresso drinks will be introduced after Krispy Kreme's introduction of frozen coffee drinks, now in 40 stores, early next Spring. Today, beverages account for 15 to 20 percent of Krispy Kreme's sales.
The company also plans to add new doughnut varieties to its line — making a few of its best-selling limited-time varieties, such as pumpkin spice, permanent additions. But don't expect the chain to add bagels, hot sandwiches or other breakfast items to the menu.
"We are constantly looking at new products, but our core strength is donuts and coffee and that will be our platform," Parker explained. "We tried [other breakfast items] in the '80s and they didn't do well.
"We've been able to grow our comparable store sales by double-digits every quarter since we went public in April 2000 and are focusing on elevating the customer experience with donuts and coffee."
Krispy Kreme is not alone. Competitor Dunkin' Donuts Inc., part of Allied Domecq Quick Service Restaurants, expanded its beverage line with espresso beverages last month. ("See You Latte: Espresso Beverages the Dunkin' Donuts Way," Page 62.) Dunkin' Donuts, which posts 55 percent of its sales between 5 a.m. and 11 a.m., captures 10 percent of the morning QSR daypart, according to Catherine Zuffante, a spokesperson for the Randolph, Mass.-based chain. It's morning business is bigger than greater than Starbucks, Burger King's and Hardees' share.
With more than 3,700 U.S. locations, the chain sells more doughnuts, bagels, muffins and cups of coffee than any other retailer in the country, she said. Friday and Saturday are the chain's biggest breakfast sales day of the week.
Once again, convenience is key to the chain's success. "More than 1,700 locations are equipped with a drive-through," Zuffante said. "Dunkin' Donuts is the most conveniently located quick service restaurant in New England, with a shop density in the region greater than any other QSR anywhere in America." Indeed, in the Providence, R.I., market, there is one Dunkin' Donuts shop per 6,750 people.
Destination: Breakfast
Offering a "destination driver" — such as Dunkin Donut's coffee — is key when serving up breakfast, Bishop noted. For one study, Bishop Consulting looked at purchase intent of c-store shoppers. The results: the percentage of coffee buyers who knew they were going to buy coffee when entering the c-store — 94 percent — was nearly as high as the percentage of cigarette buyers who planned their tobacco purchase.
"Putting up signage to trigger a coffee purchase isn't going to make as big an impact as, say, candy signage," Bishop pointed out. "But about one-third of the coffee buyers knew they were buying coffee, but didn't know ahead which size — so there are opportunities for merchandising when it comes to size."
The number-one item purchased with coffee in a c-store: a packaged sweet snack. A bit more than one-third of c-store customers bought them, Bishop noted. Second to the sweets: cigarettes. (Of course, since cigarettes are the predominant purchase in the channel, they are often bought with many other c-store items too.) The third-most purchased item with coffee was mints.
"This is a very routine, habitual [morning purchase] pattern developed by the consumer," he said. "A large majority of these customers are male, and working class. They need breakfast on the go and the caffeine to get them started."
Still, few c-store operators are emphasizing the cross-merchandising opportunities presented by the packaged sweets and mints. "There aren't that many stores merchandising them adjacent to the coffee or going with a shelf or countertop rack of nutritional or breakfast bars," Bishop said.
A number of operators, especially foodservice powerhouses like Sheetz Inc. and Wawa Inc., are battling quick-serve and quick-casual breakfast specialists head on. Sheetz Inc. Dotz Bakery items include cinnamon twists, Danishes, muffins, turnovers and more. Its Coffeez program includes four varieties of brewed coffee, plus a featured flavor, and Cupo'cinno, including a fat-free French vanilla and almond amaretto, among others.
Wawa Inc. sells more than 125 million cups of coffee each year at it 500-plus stores. Brewed fresh every 20 minutes, the coffee is available in 12- and 20-ounces sizes, in a variety of flavors, including a dark roast, Irish cream, chocolate macadamia nut, vanilla cream, caramel and others. The chain also sells a variety of cappuccinos, caramel steamers and, new to the menu, Cafe Latte steamers.
Wawa's hot breakfast program features Sizzli hot sandwiches, served on English muffins, bagels or biscuits, and hash browns. An extensive bakery line, made fresh and delivered daily to more than 540 Wawa Food Markets in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and Virginia, includes nine types of bagels, nearly a dozen different donuts, filled croissants, muffins, cookies and more.
"People are seeking convenience and speed in every aspect of their lives and the channels are blurring in terms of competition," said Lori Bruce, a spokesperson for the Wawa, Pa.-based chain. "Everyone wants to provide convenience. Our customers come to Wawa because they're seeking solutions and we fulfill that need in a unique way. Customers can get their morning paper, coffee, breakfast item, and fill up their tank or use the surcharge-free ATM."
Morning customers at BP Connect stores can visit the Wild Bean Café, which offers affordable, fresh foods like hot breakfast sandwiches, pastries and other baked goods, made in the store. A Wild Bean Café baker arrives every morning at 2:30 a.m. and early-shift café staff arrives at 5 a.m. to prepare the morning's fresh menu items. Baked goods are made twice daily at a minimum and replaced every four to six hours.
Beverages include a gourmet blend of Wild Bean Coffee, made fresh every hour, and cappuccino. Approximately 80 percent of the food offerings typically found at a dedicated quick-service bakery-style restaurant are offered at a Wild Bean Café, the company said. In fact, Au Bon Pain employees are consultants for Wild Bean Café's menu development, product sourcing, equipment design and on-going support.
At smaller operations, retailers with less ambitious programs are leveraging their locations and product variety to nab the breakfast customer. For example, at Prairie Mobil, in Prairie du Sac, Wis., approximately half of the breakfast customers are gasoline customers "who come for coffee and a donut, which they can get here for less than $1," said manager Sue Jaedike.
Jaedike estimates 40 percent of the stores' sales are made during the morning hours. A number of regulars come in for coffee and buy lunch to take with them, she noted.
Prairie Mobil's coffee program includes a few flavors of cappuccino, and syrups such as chocolate, Irish crème, vanilla, cinnamon and hazelnut. Along with 12-, 16- and 20-ounce cups, the store offers Mobil mugs for $1.99 and $2.99. "Most of our morning customers have a mug, because refills are only 25 cents," Jaedike said.
Doughnuts, which employees frost and display after thawing and serving, sell for 45 cents and 65 cents. The store also carries packaged banana and carrot cake, banana bread and other baked goods, selling at $1.10 each
"The muffins we cooked all looked the same, and you couldn't tell the blueberry from the cherry cheesecake," she said. "Now, the muffins have a good color and they're big — they catch the eye. We date them and they are always fresh."
Microwavable breakfast sandwiches also sell well, the store manager said. Employees preheat a few for the morning crowd.
"We constantly strive for the extra customer by trying new things. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't."

U.S. President Barack Obama estimated on Thursday that perhaps 1 million civilians were still in Mosul, creating a challenge for Iraq and its Western backers trying to expel the group through force.
Binali Yildirim also said on Tuesday that local fighters trained by Turkish troops in the contentious northern Iraqi camp of Bashiqa were at the forefront of the Mosul operation, fighting alongside the Kurdish peshmerga forces. They sustained heavy losses in lives and hardware.
Turkey's prime minister says the country's air force was involved in airstrikes alongside the U.S. -backed coalition as part of the operation underway to free Mosul from the Islamic State group. It has united, organized and is coordinating the joint attack by Iraq's army, hard-fighting Kurds, the latter who still distrust the Baghdad government and the allies' air forces and special forces.
Tuesday night, both Iraqi and Kurdish commanders announced a pause in their advance and said they would meet Wednesday to decide how to proceed.
Three residents who spoke with The Associated Press by telephone described a ghost town where people only venture out to buy basic goods that are increasingly running low.
The first bricks of the military Tower of Babel predicted by debkafile in the background report below were set in place sooner than expected. He suggested that if Isis forces are not defeated by the Iraqis themselves in Mosul then the Iraqis – presumably the Iraqi Shia militia which are one of the spearheads of the government army – 'will be obliged to move to eastern Syria in order to fight the terrorist group'.
The first forces to enter those cities were by and large pro-Iranian Iraqi Shiite militias, especially the Bader Brigades and the Popular Mobilization Units, under Iran's supreme Middle East commander Gen. Qassem Soleimani.
From Washington, this is VOA News.
Iraq's government on Monday launched an operation to recapture the city from the radical Islamic State group.
"A lot of people are going to flee", said Berkis Wille, the senior Iraq researcher for Human Rights Watch, which also is in contact with people inside the city.
Neither is another uninvited party, Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan. Baghdad denies it granted permission and has ordered the Turks to withdraw – a call Ankara has ignored. Hopefully, it won't happen in Mosul.
A Pentagon spokesman said more than 100 U.S. troops are embedded with Iraqi forces, including the peshmerga, as they advance toward Mosul.
On the eerily quiet streets of Mosul, fighters from the Islamic State group are killing suspected spies, blocking roads and planting bombs ahead of a showdown with Iraqi forces.
But ISIS leaders decided against waiting for the combined offensive.
When IS fighters moved into the territory around Mosul more than two years ago, the group attacked with convoys that traversed the open desert and held parades in the city center.
Those inside the city said they found out about the offensive from the radio and that airstrikes had hit closer targets in recent days.
The spat has raised concerns that the defeat of IS could lead to renewed conflict among the various fighting units currently allied against it.

Many expatriates working in Saudi Arabia ask me this question, if their employer has the right to deduct iqama renewal fee and insurance cost of the remaining months of iqama period from the salary. Well, the answer is no simple "Yes" or "No". If you have completed your contract, employer cannot deduct iqama renewal fee or insurance cost from your salary. However, if you have resigned before completion of contract, employer can ask you much more than that. If you are looking for the specific references from Saudi Labor Law, continue reading the article.
Let's establish who has the responsibility to pay the insurance cost and iqama renewal or issuance fee. As per Article 40 (1) of the Saudi Labor Law, it is the responsibility of the employer to pay for the iqama renewal of iqama issuance fee. As per Article 144 of the Saudi Labor Law, it is the responsibility of the employer to provide health care and insurance to each and every employee. According to latest rules of Iqama renewal, it cannot be renewed if employee is not insured. So, now it has been established that the primary responsibility of payment of iqama issuance, iqama renewal or insurance cost is of employer.
Now there can be two scenarios, your contract can be a fixed term contract or an indefinite contract. If you don't know about the type of your contract, I would suggest you to have a look at this article "Fixed Term and Indefinite Contract under Saudi Labor Law".
If you resign within the validity of the fixed term contract, your employer has a right to take you to the "Commission for the Settlement of the Labor Disputes". Average dispute resolution time of cases is around 4 months. Since it is your mistake to resign within the validity of the fixed term contract, you will have to pay damages to the employer. Damages in such cases generally include the visa cost initially incurred, ticket cost, iqama charges, insurance cost and may also include some other charges. Moreover, Labor Office may also decide to process your final exit and impose a ban of 5 years. In this scenario, it is better if you just settle the dispute with the employer. Going to court is not in your interest. Source: Article 77 of Saudi Labor Law
However, if you have an indefinite contract with the employer, you can terminate it at any point of time with one month's notice period. At the time of resignation, send it either by Email and keep a print of it for record or take receiving of your boss on it. You might need it at the time you go to the court against your employer. Since resignation is your legitimate right under Article 75 of the Saudi Labor Law in case of indefinite contract, your employer cannot ask for the iqama renewal fee or insurance cost of the remainder period of the contract. If he asks so, you can go to the court against him. Again, settling anything with the court takes not less than 3 to 4 months. Time is money for you so it is better if you settle the dispute in office. Ask him to provide you reference of the Law where he is allowed to deduct this amount from your salary. He would not be able to provide it.

Relationship Expert: Jennifer Love Hewitt Could Make a Good Match For Adam Levine (EXCLUSIVE)
The musician just announced he's single less than a week ago, and the women are already lining up to date the Maroon 5 rocker, 33. Following his breakup from Victoria's Secret model Anne Vyalitsyna, even Jennifer Love Hewitt, 33, admitted that she'd like to be considered for a date with The Voice team leader. But is this a good match?
Psychologist and relationship expert Dr. Michelle Golland exclusively gave Celebuzz her professional opinion about this possible celebrity couple, and what sort of woman would be good for Adam.
"Jennifer's success in its own right does make [her and Adam] a good match," Dr. Golland admitted. However, she adds, "But given her somewhat tumultuous relationship track record, she might be too unstable emotionally for him."
The relationship expert advises that Adam needs a "confident and creative woman who is able to have a successful and independent career." Though she sees JLove as a suitable choice for the rock star, Dr. Golland has another celebrity in mind for the eligible bachelor.
"Amanda Seyfried could be a good love match," she advises. "Given his past, he likes beautiful blondes. Amanda, 26, is smart, savvy and successful in her career, and her strong personality coupled with her outgoing nature would be a good match to his more introverted personality."
Who do you think would be a good match for Adam when he's ready to date again? Let us know, below.

Ten, 7.30pm
Well into its third season, Modern Family still sustains a delicate tonal balance, being sweet but not saccharine, subversive but not gratuitously offensive. It's hard to imagine another American sitcom tackling the subject of menstruation without being oafishly coarse or insufferably coy.
When the menstrual cycles of the three Dunphy women align, Phil's fear and inept attempts at empathy are a delight to behold. Elsewhere, Mitchell feels the brunt of Cam's misery about turning 40 while Jay feels pressure from Gloria to be more masculine.
This is a study in taut, smart comedy writing.

Allan Brewer, IndyCar correspondent
Venezuelan EJ Viso and KV Racing Technology announced an agreement on Monday that will put the 26 year-old back on the grid for his third season of IndyCar racing at KVRT and his fifth season overall.
"I am really happy to be back," Viso said. "Last year was very successful even if the results don't necessarily reflect what we wanted. We worked very hard and we proved we were competitive. The progress we made over the last two years will be a key to our success in 2012."
Each session we ran we went faster and faster.
Viso will partner veteran Tony Kanaan at KVR, and in all likelihood will be joined by former Formula 1 driver Rubens Barrichello in the team's third seat. An announcement of Barrichello's deal is expected on Thursday afternoon.
Viso has started 66 IndyCar events without a win, racking up two top 5 finishes over his career. His best finish was a third place result in Iowa during the 2010 season. He finished 18th in the championship points standings in the 2011 campaign.
Viso has already put in laps behind the wheel of the No. 5 Dallara DW12/Chevrolet he will pilot this year, racking up 143 tours of Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, California over the past weekend.
"We developed a lot of new things," he said. "Each session we ran we went faster and faster. By the end of the second day we put on a race setup and simulated a race and the result was impressive."
The team plans to test again, at Sebring International Raceway, next week.
The 2012 IndyCar season opens with the Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg on March 25th.

Pawn Shop Circuit: High Prices and New Territory
Neil still had his .455 Hand Ejector at $329, along with his KelTec P-40 and Astra Constable. He was not interested on negotiations either, and with a gun show a week away, neither was I. Neil had moved a couple of deer rifles and shotguns out of hock, but that was it.
Amber had sold both the stainless Ruger MKII and the Raven 25. She did not have anything new on her shelves either. I had an out of town patient to see, and afterwards, had the opportunity to pop into an unknown pawn shop. This shop had several lawn mowers outside, and was crowded with rusty tools and window unit air conditioners. Inside the gun case among the H&R revolvers and crap guns sat a postwar M&P. I asked to see it as the tag did not show the price. It was a four inch model with later grips. The finish was pretty good. I asked how much. The proprietor squnted his eyes, smacked his lips and said $450. Now I might look like I was born on a turnip truck, but it wasn't at night. The owner had given a starter price that was so far out of range I could not counter it. I handed the gun back to the owner, thanked him, and turned to leave. As my hand pushed open the door, he shouted "How much will you give?" I said $200, and he shook his head. I left his dusty shop for the bright Louisiana springtime with a gunshow a week away.

Stephania Bell (3:04 PM)
Happy Tuesday everyone. I am still sleepy from not only the late hour of last night's games but the adrenaline! Won one league, had a couple losses, including one by 1.5 points. Fantasy heartbreak. How did you all fare?
dave (boston)
any word on amendola missing thursdays game or are people just assuming hes out because he aggravated his groin?
Stephania Bell (3:05 PM)
Dave: Don't think it's an assumption. Think it's a legitimate possibility. Consider the short interval since clearly aggravating the injury. If he doesn't play, he has two weeks off. I would be making backup plans, as a precaution, then wait for final .
John (didn't start Roddy)
Ms. Bell, How long does it take for a normal athlete to recover from a high ankle sprain?
Stephania Bell (3:09 PM)
John: It all depends on the severity. A low-grade high ankle sprain can heal faster than a severe lateral ankle sprain. But a high ankle sprain that doesn't fully heal can be very problematic. With that in mind, you hope that White is going to get fully better. Based on his in-game chest bump with his teammate who just scored a TD, his ankle can't be feeling that bad. But certain hard cuts/twisting is harder with a high ankle. He's approaching the 4 week mark since the injury and he should be coming into form soon.
Clark (Toronto)
While I don't wish injury upon anyone, I'm more comfortable playing Ridley this week with Vereen needing wrist surgery. How long will Vereen be out of the lineup?
Stephania Bell (3:10 PM)
Clark: All we're hearing is he's expected to miss at least a month. Don't know which bone was broken or how extensive the surgery was. If fairly straightforward, may not be much beyond a month. Key is ability to grip for ball control, receptions. We'll know more when we start to see him working back with the ball - but expect a month.
Kyle (NY)
Are you at all concerned about Reggie Bush moving forward?
Stephania Bell (3:13 PM)
Kyle: Sure. He's had his share of injuries. Detroit has not been kind to RBs when it comes to injuries either and Schwartz made it clear he's not going to lighten the load. They're liable to run him into the ground. The thumb not so much but the groin, easy to flare up. I will say that the fact he played like he did after the injuries suggests that it wasn't that severe. Expect him to play.
Craig (NJ)
Any concerns for Dez this week or beyond?
Stephania Bell (3:15 PM)
Craig: Foot injuries (a sprain in his case) always a worry for WRs and RBs. He did come back in the game but the game was almost over so didn't see a ton of post-injury action. Not clear where in the foot the injury is, which can make a difference. He and the team say he'll play this week but naturally, a little concerned about whether this has the potential to worsen.
Josh (IA)
Hi Stephania! If you already owned Vernon Davis and Jordan Cameron, but Jared Cook was still available in your league, would you still try to grab him? Thanks!
Stephania Bell (3:16 PM)
Josh: I'd pick up Cook and release Cameron. Like Cameron's talent but more worried about his QB. Think Cook has shown a sign of things to come.
Lee (Columbus)
Hey Stephania, What's the word on Percy Harvin? Do you think there is chance he returns, and produces, before week 10? His surgeon was "amazed" and he has tweeted about it recently.
Stephania Bell (3:19 PM)
Lee: It's possible but I wouldn't be penciling him in just yet. Based on what he had done, it takes about 12 weeks for biological healing. Meaning, it's HIGHLY unlikely you see him before the 12 week post-surgery mark. Surgery was 8/1, 12 weeks puts him around Week 8, I believe. Then you have to look at the conditioning, etc. Is he in FOOTBALL shape beyond the surgical repair. I will tell you this. When it gets close, pushing for an early return date doesn't mean as much as making sure you are fully healthy and at very low risk for harming the repair, especially with that price tag he cost the team. And they want him down the stretch. So let's see how he looks when he returns to practice BUT if you have space on an IR and can pick him up, it doesn't hurt.
Matt (PHL)
In addition to Amendola being unlikely to play Thursday night, I've also heard his status is in doubt beyond week 2...is it time to panic?! Any further updates?
Stephania Bell (3:20 PM)
Matt: I hate to tell you this but my panic on Amendola was evident long before the season started, for exactly these reasons. You will probably always be nervous about his status. The update right now is one day at a time but obviously this could go on much longer.
Dave (Dallas)
Given the injury risks of Amendola (groin) and R. Bush (groin, hip, thumb), which would be a higher priority waiver-wire pick? Edelman or J.Bell?
Stephania Bell (3:21 PM)
Dave: Bell. More clearly in line to get the workload.
Zac Attack (Mass.)
Own Zudfeld an already hurt! Status and at this point rather have Myers,Eifert or winslow instead? Thanks
Stephania Bell (3:23 PM)
Well, Sudfeld had a pretty big college injury history so this isn't a huge surprise. I like Eifert, then probably Winslow to catch more regularly than Myers, although who knows with the Jets
Mike (Fl )
Any concerns with Jamal Charles Quad injury ?
Stephania Bell (3:25 PM)
Mike: Just the fact he has an injury is concerning. Andy Reid said Charles has his range of motion back, a good sign after this type of injury. Really depends how it evolves over the next few days - can he get to the point of full strength before the weekend.
STEVIE (Chicago,IL)
Stephania: Quick baseball question!! Do you think Wright has a chance to come back within a week or two? Even if he does, will his playing time be only to get time in and fantasy relevant?
Stephania Bell (3:26 PM)
Stevie: Wright insists he's coming back but we have no idea when. Could be in a week to ten days, could be just for a couple games in September. I would certainly not be counting on him for your playoffs.
Mayank (Sunny SoCal)
Hi Stephania. Is Jonathan Dwyer worth using until La'Veon Bell (your sur-namesake!) returns? Meaning will Bell be out long enough to pick up Dwyer? Thanks as always for the insight.
Stephania Bell (3:29 PM)
Mayank: Not really even clear yet how they'll be using Dwyer. Tomlin made it sound like he might do very little this first week. Remember they released him. So it's not like they have big plans for him. Bell may be out for a bit longer but I'd look elsewhere than Pittsburgh for a replacement.
Elvis (Tupelo, Mississippi)
I know you felt very good about MJD's health prior to game 1. Did you see anything healthwise against the Chiefs that would be of concern? Or is this just a very bad Jax offense having a very bad day?
Stephania Bell (3:29 PM)
Elvis: The latter. Not concerned about his health.
Robert (California )
What are your thoughts on RG3 and how he looked?
Stephania Bell (3:31 PM)
Robert: He looked like a guy who hadn't played a real snap since January combined with a guy who was a little apprehensive, not just about getting hit but also about integrating some new plans on offense and not even really knowing how his body would react in live action. Definitely got better as the game went on.
Matt (D.C.)
During the game last night, Garcon took a long time to get up after a catch and was holding his thigh. He later came back in. Is he ok or did he injure his quad?
Stephania Bell (3:31 PM)
Matt: Took a bit of a beating but no report of an injury...yet.
Keith (Alberta, Canada)
Thoughts on Vick and his injury risk after game 1? Trying to decide whether to enjoy the ride or sell high while I can. Thanks!
Stephania Bell (3:33 PM)
Keith: Why not enjoy the ride? Just know that based on what we saw last night there is legitimate concern about him taking some shots that could hurt him. But there's always a QB available to pick up or trade for if someone has two.
Steve (NY)
Do you think Julius Thomas is the real deal? Would you drop Cameron for him?
Stephania Bell (3:33 PM)
Steve: Yes. And, yes.
Shaun (Charlotte)
Any ideas when Mets will shutdown Wheeler due to innings cap?
Stephania Bell (3:34 PM)
Shaun: He has probably no more than 25 innings left.
Pat (Il)
Should I still have faith in Maurice Jones-Drew? The whole Jags offense worries me.
Stephania Bell (3:36 PM)
Pat: I would. Remember he led the league in rushing with not much different talent around him. It's only been a week. Chad Henne starting this week. Wait and see.
James (Phoenix)
Are CJ Spiller and Fred Jackson going to be splitting carries the rest of the season? Was that a one game abberation, or is CJ Spiller overrated fantasy wise?
Stephania Bell (3:39 PM)
James: First, my bias. I never thought Jackson was as done as everyone else seems to think. Seemed to me that a drastic increase in workload would put Spiller at risk. A balance between the two seems like it would serve the team best. So, I don't really know why that game ended up with that division of work, unless the Patriots were specifically focused on taking Spiller out of the game plan. I think the shift will be towards leaning on Spiller and I expect him to be way more productive going forward but I am perhaps alone on an island worried about how long he can keep that type of workload up.
Ryan (Philly)
Tony Romo going to be good to go this week?
Stephania Bell (3:40 PM)
Ryan: Expected to be. The fact he put in an entire second half post-injury, not to mention his ability to play through rib injuries in the past, makes it likely.
Tom (Dearborn Hts, MI)
If Amendola is out, do you think K.Thompkins will get more balls his way?
Stephania Bell (3:42 PM)
Tom: Seems like they may have to lean on him more. Potentially no Sudfeld, no Amendola and definitely no Vereen. Edelman should definitely get a bump too.
Jen (San Jose)
Is Hartline a good pick up? Or was week one a one hit wonder?
Stephania Bell (3:42 PM)
Jen: Good pickup, yes. He's a favorite target for Tannehill.
Jeff (NY)
Do you think Justin Blackmon will be ok in that terrible Jags offense? I play in a PPR and also have Amendola (ugh), Austin & Garcon...all injury risk receivers...
Stephania Bell (3:44 PM)
Jeff: Henne may help. will be interesting to see what he does this week to get a clue. Blackmon obviously still out for a few weeks.
Steve (NJ)
Who would be a higher priority pick up for you right now if both TE and WR were positions of need? Julius Thomas or Edelman?
Stephania Bell (3:45 PM)
Steve: Thomas. More upside at his position.
TJ (Chicago)
BASEBALL PLAYOFFS! Hey Stephania, do you think there is ANY reason to continue holding onto Carlos Gonzalez? Seems like he's completely done but the Rockies haven't put a fork in him yet so I'm reluctant to...help please.
Stephania Bell (3:46 PM)
TJ: No. It's looking less and less likely that he'll be able to return. And if he does, you will wonder every day if he can stay in the lineup. Still no BP because of the finger, so I'd seek help elsewhere.
John (SD)
Will D. Richardson keep getting the majority of carries when Pead is back?
Stephania Bell (3:48 PM)
John: It was a legitimate question before the season started. Pead has talent, didn't perform spectacularly in preseason. Not clear whether he's even playing this weekend. Richardson has it well in hand right now.
Jeff (Portland, ME)
JASON CASTRO!? Grab Ramos, Gattis, Y.Gomes to replace? M.Wieters was also just dropped.
Stephania Bell (3:51 PM)
Jeff: Castro could be a liability in that the knee is not going to be 100 percent until the season ends. May get days off intermittently, esp if knee acts up. Ramos has been hitting well lately.
Chris (Houston)
So with the current injuries who would you rather have: White/Douglas or Eldman/Amendola?
Stephania Bell (3:52 PM)
Chris: White/Douglas and it's not close.
Ryan F. (Tulsa, OK) [via mobile]
Heard anything new on Ryan Broyles? I don't want to drop him but don't know if I can hold him for weeks if he's not gonna play.
Stephania Bell (3:53 PM)
Ryan: No. But this is to be expected given that he's coming off ACL surgery. He should be on bench for the upside he'll bring once he warms up. But you may not get much for the first few weeks.
Grant (Seattle)
Chances Gronk plays in Week 3?
Stephania Bell (3:56 PM)
Grant: Hard to read right now. ALl depends what he does between now and then. He's close. I've always thought he'd be ready around Week 4 IF they carried him on the active roster with the possibility that could go +/- 1 week depending on how he progressed in practice. So week 3 definitely possible but it's all predicated on how he does every day with an increased workload...which is why it's hard to answer right this minute.
Jeremy (Sacramento)
I have the broncos defense, but should i be concerned about champ bailey's injury?
Stephania Bell (3:59 PM)
Jeremy: If by concerned you mean will this be an ongoing problem, then yes, the likelihood that this will completely disappear is small. But can he come out and be effective? Yes. And the team hopes to have him in Week 2. He's definitely not the same player he was in the early days of his career but he's a veteran leader who can still make plays so they definitely want him on the field.
Perry (Baltimore)
Do you think Ahmad Bradshaw is still ailing from his injury or not playing more due to his lack of experience with the Indy playbook/ loss of Preseason reps. Your thoughts on him going forward?
Stephania Bell (4:00 PM)
Perry: It's a matter of working him up to the workload of a starting back. I like him a lot on this team once he gets going, hopefully within the next couple of weeks.
Stephania Bell (4:01 PM)
Sorry everyone, it's that time. I need to run. Thanks so much for coming to the chat! I'll be back on Friday. During football season, will be adding Fridays at 11:45 a.m. Hope to see you then!!

What is a Standard?
A standard is a document that prescribes or recommends performance, product characteristics, designs or management objectives. If you want more details you may want to read Standards Systems: A Guide for Regulators from the Standards Council of Canada.
Examples of Standards at Work
Standards are the reason that:
- A lightbulb made in China for GE fits in a socket made in Thailand for Phillips and works using North American power.
- A steam boiler won't blow up when operated at specified temperature & pressures and will vent if it does exceed those specifications.
- It's possible to assemble a computer from components manufactured by many companies and to use software written by other companies and have it work.
- A test carried out by a lab in Vancouver is comparable to one done in Montreal.
- The cable pulling your elevator box up to the 10th floor doesn't snap under a half load.
Standard Synonyms
Standards might also be called Recommended Practices, Guidelines, or Military Specifications (aka Mil Specs).
Standards for buildings & construction are often called codes. However, other standards might be called codes, such as the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel code.
About Standard Numbers
Most standards follow a similar number format. They will look something like this:
where the
ABC is the organization that developed the standard
D is a broad subject category (not always present)
123.56 is a document/standard number
07 indicates the standard was approved in 2007
For example
- CSA B44.2-10 refers to the CSA standard B44.2 (covering maintenance of elevators and similar devices) the edition issued in 2010.
- ABC D123.56-95 R07 refers to 1995 standard was reviewed in 2007 and determined that no changes were needed.

Refreshingly — given that the TV networks collectively paying the NFL billions annually often seem more intent on promoting the league — network analysts this weekend weren't afraid to question on-field calls.
By halftime of CBS' coverage of the Pittsburgh-Indianapolis game Sunday, even reserved studio host Greg Gumbel said, "You're not talking about a great officiating week so far." But on-air criticism peaked when an apparent fourth-quarter interception by Pittsburgh's Troy Polamalu that might have clinched the game was overturned on a replay review.
The Steelers won anyway. But CBS' Boomer Esiason said it would have been "highway robbery" if the Steelers had lost.
"I don't care what the NFL says, that was an interception!" he added. (Esiason had said officials were "wrong" in a key pass interference call against New England in the Patriots' loss at Denver. And on Sunday, Fox's Howie Long called the officiating in that game "very disappointing.") CBS' Shannon Sharpe agreed about the officials in the Steelers' win, saying they "missed so many calls in this game."
But the TV coverage wasn't flawless either. In Denver's win, CBS' Phil Simms shied from saying Broncos cornerback Champ Bailey, in a 100-yard interception return, seemed to have been tackled on New England's 1-yard line because he'd slowed to showboat. Worse, CBS' studio crew didn't ask Bailey about it during an interview with him Sunday.
Also on Sunday, CBS' Dan Dierdorf said Indianapolis quarterback Peyton Manning had waved off the punting unit to go for it on a fourth down, overruling coach Tony Dungy; Dungy said on CBS later he hadn't wanted to punt.
And what's with Sharpe openly rooting for his old team — Denver — as if he was in its front office?
At least his hair looked OK. By contrast, Fox's Jimmy Johnson sported a fluffy new hairdo. Fox claims a majority of voters approved of it in an online poll, but majorities can be wrong.
NHL debut: Saturday, in its first NHL regular-season telecast since 1975, NBC took advantage of its access to bench areas by having its reporters note what players and coaches were saying. But NBC couldn't debut what would have been the first live shots, outside of exhibition games, from a camera placed on a goalie.
The New York Rangers' Henrik Lundqvist was slated to wear a lipstick-sized camera on his mask, but NBC's Mike Emrick noted he was "not really comfortable with it" in practice and "we defer to that." NBC hopes to use it in this Saturday's Philadelphia-Pittsburgh game.
Spice rack: With the Winter Olympics less than a month away, it's again time for some media types to make fun of winter sports. The carping is usually based on the idea that if few Americans understand certain sports, then how can they be legitimate? Comedian Jon Stewart, on HBO's Costas Now, called the Winter Games "useless" and "based on drunken dares." Luge, he says, is "not a sport. It's a bet." Clever. ...
Coaches often say bland and obvious stuff on TV. But sometimes, TV interviewers aren't too insightful either. San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich told TNT's Craig Sager the Spurs are only playing like one of the "top six or seven" NBA teams. After Sager told him the team would need to improve "to be the best," Popovich was concise: "Well, duh."
