NEW YORK — The Road Warriors' run is over. The Nets are suddenly the NBA's hottest team.
NEW YORK — The Road Warriors' run is over. The Nets are suddenly the NBA's hottest team.
Joe Johnson scored 27 points in the Nets' season-high fourth straight victory, a 102-98 win Wednesday night that snapped Golden State's 10-game winning streak and prevented the first 7-0 road trip in NBA history.
Kevin Garnett scored 11 of his 13 points, one of his best efforts in a Brooklyn uniform, in the final quarter and stole Stephen Curry's pass with the Warriors down three with 12 seconds left as the Nets overcame an early 16-point hole.
"They came out and gave us a big blow in the first quarter. I thought we kept our composure and then fought back," said Garnett, who was in double figures for just the sixth time this season.
"That's a very good team that we played tonight and a very good team that we beat tonight."
Shaun Livingston made the tiebreaking free throw with 1:12 left when he appeared to get away with hooking Curry, then Johnson made four in a row for just enough breathing room to allow the Nets to remain unbeaten in 2014 and climb into eighth place in the Eastern Conference.
Curry scored 34 points for the Warriors, who were bidding for a franchise-record 11th consecutive victory overall and the first unbeaten road trip of seven or more games in NBA history. But they didn't make a field goal after Klay Thompson's 3-pointer with 4:07 remaining that gave them a 93-89 lead until Curry's jumper with 5.8 seconds to go.
"Certainly a tough loss," Warriors coach Mark Jackson said. "Disappointed that we did not finish it the right way. Give them credit. It was a great job by them, but we will not lose sight of the fact that we were 6-1 on this road trip."
Brooklyn scored nine straight points after Thompson's basket as fans stood across the final minutes of one of the Nets' most spirited efforts of the season — some taunting director and Knicks fan Spike Lee, who sat courtside wearing a hat in the Nets' black-and-white colors but read "KNICKS."
"We got down, but we didn't give in," said Andray Blatche, who had 17 points off the bench. "We continued to fight and we closed it out."
Livingston finished with 13 points for the Nets, playing without point guard Deron Williams after he underwent treatment for both ankles this week. They will try to wrap up a perfect homestand Friday against Miami.
The Nets snapped a winning streak of 10 or more games for the third time in their NBA history, having ended Detroit's 11-game run on Jan. 31, 2006, and the SuperSonics' 12-game streak on Nov. 21, 1982, in Seattle.
David Lee scored 20 points for the Warriors, who ran out of gas just shy of the record books and had to settle for their second 6-1 road trip in the last two years.
Their trip started on Dec. 29 in Cleveland, and included an impressive victory at Miami, but perhaps left the Warriors with too little left after a 101-80 win at Milwaukee on Tuesday.
"It's a long road trip, but you can't let that be an excuse for how the game ended," Curry said. "We've got to find a way to win."
Golden State made its first four 3-pointers in racing to a 20-10 lead, and it was 32-16 after Harrison Barnes' 3-pointer made the Warriors 13 of 17 from the field and 5 of 6 behind the arc.
But Mirza Teletovic and Johnson hit 3s before the period ended and the Nets forced Golden State to miss six straight shots to generate some momentum. Brooklyn then surged ahead late in the second with a 14-4 run, and brought a 59-52 lead to the locker room on Teletovic's 3 that beat the buzzer.
"We just kept playing," Livingston said. "I think we locked in. I mean, we were playing good D. They hit some shots, they came out guns blazing."
Livingston's dunk gave Brooklyn a 67-56 lead with 6:46 left in the third, but the Nets managed just eight free throws the rest of the period. Barnes' 3-pointer with 32 seconds left gave the Warriors a 76-75 lead to take to the fourth.

NAACP President Ben Jealous to step down this year
NAACP President and CEO Benjamin Jealous, who is credited with boosting finances at the nation's largest civil rights organization and helping to stabilize it, said Sunday that he plans to step down at the end of the year.
The Baltimore-based National Association for the Advancement of Colored People said that its rosters of online activists and donors have grown tremendously during his five-year tenure. Jealous was the group's youngest-ever leader when he was hired as its president at age 35 in 2008.
In a written statement Sunday, Jealous, now 40, said he plans to pursue teaching at a university and wants to spend time with his young family.
"The NAACP has always been the largest civil rights organization in the streets, and today it is also the largest civil rights organization online, on mobile and at the ballot box too," Jealous said. "I am proud to leave the association financially sound, sustainable, focused, and more powerful than ever."
Jealous plans to step down on Dec. 31. His departure plans were first reported by USA Today, which said he was in the first year of a three-year contract.
Jealous told the newspaper he also plans to start a political action committee to raise money to elect diverse progressive candidates to public office, though not necessarily only Democrats. During President Barack Obama's first campaign, Jealous said he teamed with others to create a fundraising group that raised $10 million to help elect the first black president.
Jealous is credited with improving the NAACP's finances and donor base over the past five years. In the year before Jealous arrived, the NAACP cut its national staff by a third. Also that year, former NAACP president Bruce Gordon abruptly resigned because of differences with the group's 64-member board.
The group said its donors have increased from 16,000 people giving each year to more than 132,000 under his leadership.
During Jealous's tenure, the NAACP also has embraced gay rights in a historic vote to endorse same-sex marriage in May 2012. "Civil marriage is a civil right and a matter of civil law," the group said, citing the 14th Amendment's equal protection clause.
Jealous told The Associated Press recently that a broader coalition is needed to fight the civil rights battles of the 21st century.
"Last century we needed lawyers; this century we need big, broad coalitions," he said. "When extremists decide to attack all our communities, they must hope that there will be infighting. But we have stood all for one and one for all. That is how we will win."
An NAACP spokesman said Jealous was not available for an interview until a formal announcement on Monday.
The Rev. Joseph Lowery, a civil rights leader and former president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, said Jealous brought an intellectual quality and a level of integrity that won respect.
"I'm sorry to see him resign, although I understand he has other plans. But, I think he was just getting into his stride," Lowery said Sunday evening. "I think he brought a luster to the office that was quiet and dignified and effective, and I wish him well in his new work."
The Rev. Al Sharpton said he felt "mixed emotions" about Jealous' announcement, which included sadness because Jealous had led the organization so well.
"Not only was he able to revive the NAACP and raise its budget to higher heights, he joined us in the streets in real civil rights activity on the ground," Sharpton said in a written statement. "From the `suites to the streets,' he will be missed as head of the NAACP, but I am sure he will not leave us in his contribution to the struggle."
Jealous began his career as a community organizer in Harlem with the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. He was suspended from Columbia University in New York City after organizing student protests and went on to work as a reporter for the Jackson Advocate newspaper in Mississippi.
Jealous has led the NAACP to advocate against "stop-and-frisk" police tactics and stand-your-ground laws following the death of Florida teenager Trayvon Martin. He has also fought to abolish the death penalty at the state level, including in Maryland.
NAACP Chairman Roslyn Brock accepted Jealous' resignation in the past week. She said the group would continue its fight to restore part of the Voting Rights Act that was recently struck down by the Supreme Court, as well as work to boost its civic engagement efforts and ensure that black Americans are able to obtain health insurance under the nation's health care overhaul.
Brock thanked Jealous for his service.
"Under his leadership, the NAACP has built a highly competent staff that will carry our mission forward and meet the civil rights challenges of the 21st century," she said. "Our board, staff and volunteer leaders throughout the country deeply appreciate his sacrifice and will continue to implement our game-changing goals for the next half century."
Associated Press writer Phillip Lucas in Atlanta contributed to this report.

Ok, I?m an AT&T subscriber and I?ve got a grudge. AT&T never delivered on bandwidth, leaving most of those who bought in on the promise listless freaks unconnected to anything that resembles real time on the internet.
It came as little wonder that Consumer Reports' annual review of cellular carriers found AT&T dead last in the pack with their overall satisfaction score falling to 60 from 66 a year ago – the only carrier to see such a substantial drop.
AT&T stated that through the third quarter it "continued to maintain a strong balance sheet, deliver strong cash flows and reduce debt." The company noted that in its fiscal year ended September 30 its debt levels were reduced by nearly $4 billion.
Well that?s nice, but the excuse used for poor service reveals that they just haven?t been spending on infrastructure though the company claims that equipment shortages and zoning issues have held up work in San Francisco.
Personally, I just don?t believe anything this company says any longer and it seems others in the financial community have been doing their homework, too.
In fact Standard & Poor?s Ratings Services downgraded AT&T by a full grade after a warning that it might do so this summer. S&P lowered AT&T?s ratings to A- from A leaving the companies bonds four levels above junk status. This will make it more expensive for the company to raise additional capital to upgrade their deteriorating network.
Ok, Looks like I?ll be looking for a new plan after this piece. Any recommendations?

They're at the forefront of marketing, rarely show gameplay and have been hopelessly corrupted by "developer diaries", but that's not to say we hate trailers. We like trailers. There are even some that we love.
Whether indicative of a game or just the "feel" or "tone" of one still in development, the humble game trailer has become an artform unto itself in recent times. Here's some of 2009's best, which we've picked for their raw entertainment value, not for the job they do depicting the actual game in question.
Click to viewMass Effect 2
Click to viewLeft 4 Dead 2
Click to viewHalo 3: ODST
Click to viewStar Wars: The Old Republic
Click to viewForza 3
Click to viewThe Beatles: Rock Band
Click to viewKillzone 2
Click to viewThe Last Guardian
And that about does it! For what it's worth, my favourite was the ODST one. Really slick, expensive, powerful stuff. Who would have thought Hungarian would sound so futuristic?!
Did we miss anything? Let us know!


text: Just a crossed up route. But why didn't Tramon pick that off and run it back? He has been playing really poorly the last few weeks. That was a wide open simple interception and he could have just sealed the game there. The Packers are really questionable here at the moment. And injuries are no excuse.

Exclusive Cool Alarm will help you to wake up in the morning, remember the important meeting, meet the friend in airport.
Cool Alarm has an attractive and intuitive design that makes the interaction even more feasible. Turn On Cool Alarm and get a big helper!!!Features included:
I purchased your clock App which looks very impressive, the only problem I am experiencing is that after I have entered three different alarm times, and place my iPhone 4S on it's side, the App crashes and I am returned to my face page on the phone.
Any suggestions would be appreciated please.
Hi Steve,
Could you please describe that scenario in more details? Please try to reproduce it and send exact steps. We'll try to fix it.
Thanks in advance.
Thank you for getting back to me so promptly.
I entered three separate times for three separate days (10.30am for Mon, Tues, Wed, Sun) (6.45am for Thursday) and (6am for Saturday).
I then plug in my iPhone 4S to the 240v mains and the clock works perfect in the vertical position, but as soon as I turn the phone to the horizontal position, the clock clicks off and I am returned to my icon page. The same thing happens even if the phone is not connected to the 240v mains supply.
If I tap on the clock icon, it opens perfect in the vertical position, but repeats itself when I turn the phone to the horizontal position.
If I only have one alarm activated or no alarms at all programmed into the App, then the clock works in the horizontal as well as the vertical position.
I hope I have explained the problem. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.
Kind Regards
Hi Steve,
We found a problem. It will be fixed in coming update. Thank you very much for your support, we really appreciate it!

Is there any way to get the alarm to ring with the ringer is turned off? If the phone is on vibrate and locked, the alarm appears as just a message on the notifications screen.
Doesn't work.
We released a new version. Should be available next week. Please check that out.
Does not display weather info
Sorry forgot to turn on location services in settings'
Hi, just put the App up to replace native alarm clock
Any chance of getting triple digit temperature ( live in AZ)?
We typically run 100+ deg F over 100 days/yr
Keep up the good work
Thanks for feedback. It will be fixed in upcoming update.
This could be the reason of not dedicating your current location. Please check if Location Services are enabled for current application from General Settings.
Otherwise the reason could be with your internet connection. Please check that as well.
I have updated the App to the latest version (2.0.3) in my iPad and the alarm has sound today (Sunday), but the Alarm is configured to sound from Monday to Friday. ¿Is there a bug now?
We'll take a look. Thanks for noticing that!
Je n'arrive par régler les fonctions!!!
Ne correspond pas à la description !!

Merci Alexandre Boros
Hi Alexandre,
Could you please be more specific and tell what functions and instructions you meant?
We are a free app promotion company specializing in promoting free apps to the Brazilian market.
We only feature one app a day, and we have a steadily growing user-base.
It appears from the ranking your app has achieved so far in Brazil (currently 13 overall – between Temple Run and Angry Birds Rio), that users really liked your app too. Congratulations. So you know, your app will remain in the recent apps list for at least couple of weeks.
If you would like to see your app featured in our app, you can download our app from here: http://itunes.apple.com/br/app/apps-gratis-brasil/id498370893?mt=8
We also have a blog at: http://www.AppsGratisBrasil.com.br
One thing I'd like to point out is that your app description says "Free 3 DAY TRIAL" and it appears that one of the reviewers in Brazil thought your app is an always free app which will only work for 3 days. I do not believe this is the case and would suggest to you that you change the first line of the description to something like "Free 3 DAYS ONLY" or something like that so people don't get confused and think your app is some sort of subscription app or requires In App Purchase to keep using.
Best of luck with your promotion!
Apps Grátis Brasil
Thank you for message and suggestions!
Best wishes!
The weather doesn't work right!!!! The temperature is not the real one
The weather grabbed from Yahoo. So, if your location detected correctly, then should be ok.
This is an awesome app; very practical and very easy to use. One good feature would be to have the ability to use your own ringtones/ text tones as your alarm sound. Just a suggestion.
Thanks for feedback and suggestion. But for now we have ability to set your music library sound as a ringtone. Or you meant something else?
Not loud enough.
Ok. We'll take care
The APP is very good, but does not work properly when the iPhone is in Auto-Lock. The alarm sounds (Old-Old Phone)only twice (do not wake the person). Only after the iPhone is unlocked, the music selected in library starts playing.
Anyway, congratulations.
It repeats every minute if no actions taken.
Is it possible the alarm sounds using music of library, even when iPhone is in Auto-Lock?
For no we support it only when application in foreground.
BTW, Could you please rate the app, if you didn't yet
Hey.. This is a nicely polished app, but I had a few questions/issues which I hope you can help me with. According to iTunes, I am updated to the latest version. (1.0.1)
1) When I set an alarm, it goes off perfectly, and I deleted the alarm, but now I cannot get it to stop going off every day at that time even though the alarm was deleted from the interface. I had 4 or 5 set and now the alarm just goes off whenever those times are reached (even though they've been deleted and no longer show in the interface)
2) When I select to play a song from my playlist, the alarm just plays one of the built in tones (which are quite quiet). The alarm 'settings' show that a song is selected, but this seems to be ignored and 'old-old phone' plays instead. I've tried a few songs to no avail.
I'm not sure i'll remember coming back here to check, so if you have any questions, please email me.
Hi Damon,
Thanks for comments.
For the 1st we'll try to find what the problem is and fix it in upcoming update.
For the 2nd one. When the application in background there is no ability to play sounds from playlist (iOS limitations). We have to play the currently selected built-in sound.
If you have any other issues, please mail us or send comment through the blog.
It causes auto-lock not work even I do set auto-lock available on this APP, when it is front screen window. I mean I didn't put it to background.
another one issue, there's one bug I felt that by user experience, if I set a song from my music library of iPhone, it can not be correctly play the song if APP had been return into background. song only work when APP is front screen window.
Will fix them by next update?
anyway, I feel it not bad and can be batter by your effort.
Hi Javry,
Thanks for comments.
When auto-lock enabled it means that it will auto-lock the screen after specified time elapsed (set from the device settings). So, if you need to disable auto-lock you have to switch it off. But anyway we'll look into the issue. If it exists we'll fix it in upcoming update.
When the application in background there is no ability to play sounds from playlist (iOS limitations). We have to play the currently selected built-in sound.
If you have any other issues, don't hesitate to send us email or write through the blog.
If you make this app able to be my lock screen i will pay money for it! Great app but the only way i would use this is through my lock screen keep up the good work guys
Hi Skyler,
Can you provide an example?
Cool App.
One quick question.
Is there a way to add an alarm for any other day except today without going into repeat?
Hi Yasmin,
No, for now it is the only way. Do you think it is important feature to be included?
Yes. If its not too much trouble.
When my phone is locked and i press the home button or lock button to check time, its your app that i see such as the times and alarms and temp! Hope this clarifys what i meant! Thanks for your responce!
Hi there, great app! Just one question: how to snooze when iPad is locked?
Hi Tomjay,
For now in lock/background mode after playing up to 30 seconds (depends on ringtone) it snoozes automatically by 1 minute and then replays.
Hey Rob sorry to comment here, didn't see anetohr obvious way to contact you. I moved your q. to github, and I have to kill all the comments on the Imagemapster web site because I screwed something up with the disqus config. Or just email me directly if you prefer.
Why don't you reply to threads for other apps? I posted a question about Trip Pages around two weeks ago and there's still no answer…
If you change the brightness and turn the device, it will go back to full strength. That's a little BUG.
Hi Erik,
Thanks! Actually we saw that and didn't fix that on purpose, since we thought it is funny semi-feature. So, we thinking more positive about that.
Do you really think it should save the brightness on rotation?
Yes, I think you should save it. It looks like it is saved already, because after rotating and touching the screen and slide a bit, the old brightness comes back. So that's why it looks wrong.
Hi there,
This App is priced at .99 cents on ITunes store ?? Yet it states that it is "Free 2Day Only " in the description & is advertised on AppDeals for free also… Could someone pls let me know what the actual cost is ?
Sent from my iPad
Hi Natasha,
It was free for 2 days. Now it is back to price 0.99.
@Studeo4ios: So you are replying to comments. But why don't you answer mine?
Are there directions to put in messages or reminders? The screen doesn't look like the pictures, the pictures show forecast and messages. How do I get similar to the pictures
Hi Tim,
You should edit existing alarm with the button in the left and go to Alarm Message menu. Or do it during alarm creation.
after the update to the crash of the program is removed by turning the program works visually at least stable. But I have another problem. On my iPhone 4 I set four timers. But only one of them reminds me of the appointment. This timer is set every day 9.00 p.m. clock. Other timers are at 7.00 am and 9.00 am and end at 7.00 pm. 7:00 p.m. The dates will be held each day. 7:00 a.m. will be held in the working week. 9:00 a.m. will be held on the weekend. At least that's the plan. Remember doing only 9.00 p.m. What is not clear to me what does the "nap". Unfortunately, I have found no explanation. And what causes the "auto lock"?
best regards
Hi Andreas,
We'll into the issue. Thanks for bringing that.
The auto-lock feature prevent device from lock if you needed it for some reason. By default it is on and device will lock in N minutes defined in device Settings. Setting this Off preventing device from locking.
okay. I have the set. Now the alarms are displayed and also sound. But now comes an error message -43 on the display.
"The operation couldn´t be completed. (OSStatus error -43.)"
The program crashes but it does not.
And what does nap? Should be the snooze?
Just downloaded the ap. Noticed that the day, moth etc. is in German. The rest in English. How it come in 2 languages, and can I switch languages?
Hi Jack,
Please check the General Settings, International section. There are 2 things there: Language which is the current language and Region format, which is format for date, time, currency and etc.
So, probably they different on your side.
I just downloaded your app for iPad and I cannot get the reminders to work, what is the secret?
I figured it out
Could you please describe the exact problem?
You cannot add reminders or you add them and they don't work?
I have installed app and weather feature is not showing. My husband said when prompted to allow location… He did not allow. How do I get that prompt back.
Thank you ,
You can go to Setting>Privacy>Location Services. Choose that and it will open a list for you.

It's cool. Thanks. But the weather window is N/A. Would you please help?
Why does the alarm go off on Saturday and Sunday when I have it set to only alert on weekdays?
I was loving this app until it started to only work sporadicly. I have two alarms set. One set for 7 days a week and the other 5 days a week. But, it's unpredictable when each will work. The past two days, nothing.
Is there a vibrate feature for this alarm?
Thanks for any reply,
I've been using Cool Alarm for about a year and like it very much. Recently, however, the local weather information has disappeared. All that shows now is "N/A." How can this be fixed? Your assistance would be much appreciated.
Thanks for the recent weather fix. Unfortunately, it only lasted for about 24 hours. The display is back to "N/A." Would you please try, again? Thank you.
Weather is back! I had to reboot my iPod Touch. Maybe that fixed it. Sorry to have bothered you.
Why the new bug fix version doesn't support iOS 4.2.1 any more? If you add some new feature and remove the iPhone 3G support, it's fine. However, this is a BUG fix!!!! I want my Cool Alarm Work normal as it should be in iOS 4.2.1 with my iPhone3G!! Please release a new version with iPhone3G support!!!!!!
Dear Steve i have my cool alarm set for 6.20 am to ring monday & friday only. It continues to wake me up every day at that time. I tried removing program and installing again same problem. Hope you can help with this problem. Thanks ralph
After the 9/12/2014 update, the clock face changes to a screen of ads after about 10 mins. How can I prevent this? I use the app as a clock on my night stand. Doesn't do me much good as a clock, if I can't see the clock.

Latos doing well in recovery from knee surgery
Mark Sheldon is a reporter for MLB.com. Read his blog, Mark My Word, and follow him on Twitter @m_sheldon.
GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- Reds pitcher Mat Latos has continued to rehab and progress since having left knee surgery Friday. Latos had an operation after he tore meniscus cartilage while throwing early last week.
"He'll be fine," Reds general manager Walt Jocketty said. "I just talked to Doc [Dr. Tim Kremchek] and he said he was good."
Following the procedure, Latos was expected to resume a throwing program in 10 days. He's already been walking without crutches, nor a noticeable limp.

West View mother charged with arson, insurance fraud after fire tears through her home
Police believe Rachelle Lightsey started fire with cigarette on couch
A West View mother whose house caught fire and spread to a neighboring home last winter is now suspected of starting that blaze herself, and she's facing felony charges.
Rachelle Lightsey, 37, was being held in the Allegheny County Jail on $5,000 bond after her arrest overnight. A court docket lists her charges of arson, insurance fraud and causing or risking a catastrophe, as well as misdemeanor charges of reckless endangerment.
Lightsey's children were at a friend's house when the fire began early on the morning of Jan. 21 on Fairview Avenue. Investigators say the fire started on the couch, then quickly spread to the second floor and damaged the roof of a house next door. She escaped without injury.
Slideshow: Fire spreads to second home
Lightsey's husband was also not home at the time, having been arrested just a few hours earlier and accused of domestic violence against her.
The criminal complaint says that arson investigators believe Lightsey had been drinking and that her cigarette started the fire on a couch. She acknowledges that she smokes, but not inside the house, according to the complaint. Police charged Lightsey risked her neighbors lives as well as the police officers and firefighters who arrived to help.
A neighbor, who is also a volunteer firefighter, was upset to hear about the charges. Mike Franz said, "As a volunteer, if it's actually true that it was arson then yeah I feel pretty strongly about it, because they are my friends." Franz said, "Some of the guys I know were here. One actually got minor burns."
Firefighters said dropping temperatures were a major issue as they battled the flames on a cold winter morning.
"It's always an issue," West View Fire Marshal Chuck Kovack said at the time. "You can see the streets freezing up, especially on the hill and the hoses kind of freeze inside of that."
According to the criminal complaint, Lightsey told police that she did not start the fire. She told them she tried to put the fire out, but did not know how to use her fire extinguisher. Lightsey faces six counts of endangering persons, two counts of recklessly endangering another person, and one count each of endangering property, insurance fraud and causing or risking a catastrophe.

Alexander III. Collector and Patron
12 march—14 september 2020
February 26, 2020, marks the 175th anniversary of the birth of Emperor Alexander III, whose name was given to The State Russian Museum in April 1895. Special mention is made of Alexander III's merits in museum construction and art education, which was due to his undoubted passion for history and fine arts.
6 february—9 march 2020
Belsky brothers (Ivan (1719-1799), Alexey (1729-1796) and Efim (1730-1778)) were the greatest masters of the painting team of The Chancellery (later The Office) of buildings of Her Imperial Majesty. For more than half a century they performed the most responsible painting work commissioned by Empresses Elizabeth and Catherine the Great.
The collection of masterpieces, chosen by the Russian Museum will allow you to make a first impression of the collection of the Russian Museum.
Russian Museum - one of the world's largest museums and is perhaps the only country where such a full treasure of national culture are presented.

Use resource management features in any system that has a large, diverse user base, such as an educational institution. If you have a mix of workloads, the software can be configured to give priority to specific projects.
For example, in large brokerage firms, traders intermittently require fast access to execute a query or to perform a calculation. Other system users, however, have more consistent workloads. If you allocate a proportionately larger amount of processing power to the traders' projects, the traders have the responsiveness that they need.
Resource management is also ideal for supporting thin-client systems. These platforms provide stateless consoles with frame buffers and input devices, such as smart cards. The actual computation is done on a shared server, resulting in a timesharing type of environment. Use resource management features to isolate the users on the server. Then, a user who generates excess load does not monopolize hardware resources and significantly impact others who use the system.

The Web services support in CICS Transaction Server Version 3.1 enables your CICS programs to be Web service providers or requesters. CICS supports a number of specifications including SOAP Version 1.1 and Version 1.2, and Web services distributed transactions (WS-Atomic Transaction).
This IBM Redbooks publication will help you configure the CICS Web services support for both HTTP and WebSphere MQ based solutions. We show how Web services can be used to integrate J2EE applications running in WebSphere Application Server with COBOL programs running in CICS.
It begins with an overview of Web services standards and the Web services support provided by CICS TS V3.1. Complete details for configuring CICS Web services using both HTTP and WebSphere MQ are provided next, along with the steps for using Web services to connect to CICS from a service integration bus. The book then shows how CICS Web services can be secured using a combination of Web Services Security (WS-Security) and transport-level security mechanisms such as SSL/TLS. Finally, it demonstrates how atomic Web services transactions can be configured to allow WebSphere and CICS resource updates to be synchronized.
This book concentrates on implementation specifics such as security, transactions, and availability. The companion book Developing CICS Web Services (SG24-7126) presents detailed information about developing CICS Web services.

Mar 16, 2010 (The Voice of Russia) Around 1000 Latvian Waffen SS legion veterans held a march in Riga on March 16th to pay tribute to Latvian SS legionaries. Local antifascists held an alternative rally. The head of the Simon Wiesenthal Center Efraim Zuroff joined the anti-Nazi rally saying that he is surprised to see people who killed thousands of Jews to be honored. The police provided security to prevent clashes. Earlier, the Riga Duma banned the march but the decision was overruled in court. Russian senator Mikhail Margelov said the SS march defies all humanity in the year of the 65th VE-Day anniversary.

- Ordered Median Function (1) (remove)
In this paper we develop a network location model that combines the characteristics of ordered median and gradual cover models resulting in the Ordered Gradual Covering Location Problem (OGCLP). The Gradual Cover Location Problem (GCLP) was specifically designed to extend the basic cover objective to capture sensitivity with respect to absolute travel distance. Ordered Median Location problems are a generalization of most of the classical locations problems like p-median or p-center problems. They can be modeled by using so-called ordered median functions. These functions multiply a weight to the cost of fulfilling the demand of a customer which depends on the position of that cost relative to the costs of fulfilling the demand of the other customers. We derive Finite Dominating Sets (FDS) for the one facility case of the OGCLP. Moreover, we present efficient algorithms for determining the FDS and also discuss the conditional case where a certain number of facilities are already assumed to exist and one new facility is to be added. For the multi-facility case we are able to identify a finite set of potential facility locations a priori, which essentially converts the network location model into its discrete counterpart. For the multi-facility discrete OGCLP we discuss several Integer Programming formulations and give computational results.

First post, by Mortifere
I am running on Windows 7. I downloaded and installed MinGW and MSYS, which contains gcc 4.7.0, downloaded and compiled SDL-1.2.15 without errors, downloaded and compiled SDL_net-1.2.8 without errors, downloaded, extracted and compiled dosboxsvn.tgz. Everything seemed to work right. I copied the resulting dosbox.exe, SDL.dll and SDL_net.dll to a directory with a recent dosbox installation and ran dosbox. It seemed to run fine except issuing a mount command would either 1) not do anything for a while, then the prompt would come back without the command having done anything or 2) dosbox would exit with the following message: Exit to error Illegal GRP4 call 5. Then I noticed other commands would exit the same way.
I followed the wiki page titled "BuildingDOSBox" carefully. Since I am not getting any errors while compiling any of the libraries I'm not sure where the problem lies. The only deviation from the wiki page was statically linking the C libraries so I wouldn't have to copy them as well.
Has anybody been able to compile with gcc 4.7.0?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thank you.

I wanted my next post to be the juicy bikini comp vlog/bikini booty thong workout video but since it is taking eons to upload, I will share with you a new creation I made tonight!
Well, it's not toooo out of the ordinary. I took my regular Pre-Contest Protein Pancakes and added strawberries. Yup!!!! Because now I can have fruit again!!!!!!! BAM!!!! :)
Ohhhh lovely little red bits.
I got a new pan or griddle type thingy that can now accomodate more pancakes at a time. Efficiency in the kitchen. OHHHH yeah.
Look how fluffy they are! I think they turn out so well because of the protein powder I am using. Met RX is the brand and you can get the vanilla or chocolate flavor at Trader Joe's for about $23.99.
I gotta find a way to make health freak syrup. That would definitely complete this picture.
Here are the ingredients for 1 serving. And yesssss these ARE the calories for 1 serving or the whole batter! Yes IT IS that amazing and NOT too good to be true!!!!
– 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder (I used Met RX)
– 1 TBS psyllium husk
– 1 whole egg
– 3 strawberries chopped
– About 1/2 cup of water (or soy/almond milk if you like it creamy)
222 calories, 6g fat, 14g carbs, 30g protein
Enjoy POPsters!!! I cannot wait for your butt to literally DIEEEEEEE in my next video which is uploading RIGHT NOW onto BlogilatesTV. Are you subscribed yet? You better be! For you new ones, I have 2 channels. My old channel Blogilates is where I first started and still upload workouts with Top 40 pop music there. I had to start a clean 2nd channel that didn't have pop music because I kinda got in trouble for copyright stuff with the music. That's what BlogilatesTV is! If I were you, I'd sub both because I still upload to both!
Thew new video is like over 20 min long. It's really good and I talk all about the ins and outs of the bikini comp throughout the whole video. I didn't mean to make it so long but I guss I just had A LOT to discuss with you :)
Oh and one more thing before I go!!!
I am doing my first ever live twitter chat today at 10am PST/1PM EST about how to lose weight! Everyday Health is hosting it. Sarah Dussault from Diet.com and Sarahfit.com will be my co-expert!!! I'd love for you to come and ask questions! Should be fun. Here are the directions:

If you want to make trees in video games, you can grab a program called SpeedTree and get to growing, pruning and playing god. This is what game developers do, including apparently the makers of Batman: Arkham City, whose game had trees I forgot about.
This is the kind of tech they're showing at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco. SpeedTree isn't a new thing. It's a staple. But that doesn't make it any less exotic to those of us in the normal world who look at so much of video game creation as a kind of magic.

Rig Rundown - Dope's Virus
July 9, 2009
PG's Joe Coffey is On Location in Chicago, IL, where he catches up with Dope guitarist, Virus. In this video, they chat all things gear and run down Virus' rig. Virus plays DBZ Guitars-Bird of Prey and Cavallo models-through a Diamond Nitrox head that sits in a Phantom chasis... rockstars and their ways! For effects, Virus keeps it simple by only using a Digitech delay, phaser (that he only accidentally turns on) and whammy pedal.Read More

Wichita State Shoots Down Gonzaga, And The Inquisition Begins Anew
Kelly Olynyk leaves the court after yet another early-round disappointment for Gonzaga. (Harry How/Getty)
The skeptics' grumbling started at the end of the regular season, when Gonzaga ascended to No. 1 in the national polls for the first time in school history. It continued louder on Selection Sunday, when the Zags were given a No. 1 seed over options like ACC stalwarts Miami and Duke. It was amplified even more by the Bulldogs' way-closer-than-it-should-have-been 64-58 escape from 16-seed Southern in Thursday's first round. And now it will become deafening after the Zags were unceremoniously dumped from the NCAA tournament in the Round of 32, 76-70, by a Wichita State team that was blindingly hot from the arc.
The Bulldogs, somewhat unfairly considered annual March underachievers, knew what was at stake in this year's NCAA tournament. But this loss will continue to feed the choker narrative. Four times under Mark Few, the Zags have been granted a top-3 seed in the NCAAs. Just once in those seasons have they even made it to the Sweet 16. And that appearance (against UCLA in 2006) ended with a crazy last-minute collapse and star Adam Morrison sobbing on the court.
The Zags are victims of their own success, having paved the way for every other smaller program with their three-year run from 1999-2001 in which they made an Elite Eight and two more Sweet 16s. They have continued their league dominance while growing into tougher and tougher non-league schedules. They built a new arena. They have fully paid their dues to garner the respect they earned this year with a No. 1 seed. Yet no one will remember their 32 wins, their 5-0 mark against the Big 12, or their unbeaten romp through the West Coast Conference. They will remember that Gonzaga "choked."
Of course, the supposed gag completely understates the relatively small gap between them and the Shockers. It will brush over how Wichita State, a very suspect three-point shooting team (in part because of a lot of injuries during the season) made 14-of-28 in this game. It will go without mention the Shockers made their last five threes of the game, a couple of them after Gonzaga guard Kevin Pangos gave the Zags two different seven-point leads, when it looked like Gonzaga was in decent control of the game. It will bury the fact I (and others) picked the Zags to lose this game, not because they're overrated, but because they were going to be playing a very competent team.
But that's the nature of knockout tournaments and, in a grander scale, the American sporting culture. We like drama. We like playoffs. We like players to come up big in pressure spots. We like the spotlight hot and the action hotter. But with that comes some inherent unfairness, grand judgments made off of one night, and the Zags (along with Georgetown and New Mexico) now have to continue answering questions about high-profile failures come tournament time.

Sexy Brit Jodie Kidd is one part celeb racer and one part supermodel, making her the spokesperson for the Fiat 500 Eco Test Drive promotion currently being run in the UK.
Kidd is one of the fastest competitors of the Celebrity Lap on Top Gear and also appeared in Jeremy Clarkson's Thriller, racing Clarkson himself in a Fiat 500. For Fiat UK, there wasn't a better spokesmodel to promote the new Fiat 500 Eco Test Drive being run to "highlight the benefits of environmentally-friendly motoring."
The program offers any customer that visits a participating UK Fiat dealer the opportunity to take an eco test drive. Unlike most test drives, the key to this program is that this 'test drive' also measures the driver's fuel efficiency. Fiat is providing test drivers with a unique USB key that they plug into the Blue&Me entertainment and communications slot to record their performance throughout their drive.
Fiat will then run the performance statistics through a computer which will then analyze and award a number (out of 100) that judges the drivers 'eco:Index.' The system measures the drivers efficiency based on acceleration, deceleration, gear changes and average speed. If the Eco Test Drive program proves to be successful, Fiat UK will expand it to all models that feature the Blue&Me system.
"The Fiat 500 is a lovely car," said Jodie Kidd. "And eco:Drive technology is absolutely right for the moment. People should be thinking more about their driving and the environment - it's a great idea."
We don't care what the USB says, she's a perfect 100,
Fiat UK Press Release:
Supermodel Jodie Kidd became the first person in the UK to take a Fiat 'eco' test drive in a new initiative designed to highlight the benefits of environmentally-friendly motoring.
Six foot two inch tall Jodie used a new Fiat 500 city car to take her eco:test at the start of the new programme, which is being piloted through 10 Fiat dealerships in the Greater London area. If successful, it could be rolled out across the UK.
Under the initiative, every customer who visits a participating Fiat dealer will be offered the chance to take an eco test drive. It's similar to a standard test drive of a new car, but it also measures drivers' performance in terms of the environment.
The test uses eco:Drive, Fiat's unique technology employing the widely acclaimed Blue&Me entertainment and communications system. Plugging a USB key into the Blue& Me port allows eco:Drive to record information about your driving style. Inserting the USB into a computer then shows how you performed and how you can become a more efficient driver.
The system analyses driving techniques and awards marks out of 100, providing a score on an eco:Index.

"Test drives are, for some, questionable from an environmental perspective, yet everyone wants to test a car before they buy to make sure they like it," said Elena Bernardelli, marketing director Fiat Group Automobiles UK. "Our test drive allows them to test the car, ascertains how they drive in environmental terms and gives them tips on improving, regardless of whether they buy from us or not."
Meanwhile, the Fiat Bravo is now eco:Drive enabled, giving the stylish family hatchback the same capability as the 500 and Grande Punto. During 2009 the system will be extended to all Fiat models which feature Blue&Me.

Rumors of the Motorola Droid 4 came out very quickly after the Motorola Droid 3 was released. So much that all of us were wondering what was going on. It has only been about 6 months since the Motorola Droid 3 was released, and leaks of the Droid 4 started coming in months ago. After realizing that we would soon be seeing another successor to one of the most popular Android devices in existance, rumors pointed towards a December release for the latest member of the Droid family. Since then everything has settled down, and we haven't talked much about this smartphone in a while. A new set of details has been spreading around these past few days, though.
The Droid 4 looks promising, with all the specs that we would expect from a good device in late-2011, including support for Verizon 4G LTE. Not to mention the fact that the design is looking pretty sexy, assimilating the look of the Razr (but with a keyboard).
Possible release dates included December 8th and the 22nd, both of which have come and gone without a word from Big Red. A sudden appearance of the Droid 4 at the DroidDoes website (click on the image to the right for details) a couple of weeks ago had us all thinking that the day was coming. While the site was quickly pulled, we realized that Verizon is probably setting things up to include the Droid 4 in their website, which would mean that the device is probably not too far from being released. The 22nd definitely seemed like a great day for all the keyboard-lovers looking for a good Christmas present. [1]
The day has come, and is quickly leaving with no Droid 4 for us today it seems. And it is unlikely that it will be announced today/tomorrow, and released on a Friday (especially one so close to Christmas). We can assume that the device will not be here for in time to find itself under the Christmas tree.
What gives, right? We could wait a bit more. Or at least we thought it was "a bit," until yesterday's new rumors hit the internet. It seems like the Droid 4 might be pushed back for a February release.[2] Yes, the same February during which most of the CES super phones might be released. True, the Verizon 4G LTE market is a bit saturated right now, with the Motorola Droid Razr, HTC Rezound and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus all released in the last few months. February, though? Where is the love for the keyboard-lovers?
We know it is pretty hard to part from that physical keyboard. And with options becoming scarce, some might still want to wait for this bad boy. If you want to see more of this device, what appears to be official images of the device in multiple angles have recently leaked.[3] Take another look at it, and think of the idea of using that upgrade for another smartphone, because this one isn't coming in a while.
What do you guys say? Are you willing to wait until February for the Droid 4, or have you moved onto other devices?

For over 5000 years, the alpaca has been raised as a domesticated animal throughout South America. But here, in the United States, they're still novel in comparison. In 1980 the first 10 alpacas to reside outside of zoos were imported into North America. Both the cute, fluffy Huacaya, the more well known of the two types of alpacas, and the elegant-looking, sleek Suri alpaca began gracing our shores only a few short decades ago. Brought here not just for their "magical" quality, both types of alpacas have always been prized for their thick, soft fleeces. Known for centuries as "The Fiber of The Gods," quality, versatility, and rarity are some of the factors that have kept alpaca fiber growing in demand over the years. In the fashion world it is considered to be one of the most exclusive fibers, competing only with wool, cashmere, and mohair. Alpaca fiber can be used in a variety of ways, from as sheer as the finest silks, to as thick and chunky as tweeds and wool. It dyes easily, makes the warmest batting, the softest felt, spins like a dream, and can be mixed with other fibers to combine textures and beauty. (from the Alpaca Registry)
Alpacas are members of the Camelid family, which also includes llamas, vicuñas, guanacos and the "Old World" dromedary and Bactrian camels. Alpacas are ruminants with three stomach compartments which efficiently convert grass and hay into energy. Their padded feet with two toes each have little impact on the ground as they graze, making them friendly to the environment. Their communal dung piles make collection and composting into rich fertilizer easy. Alpacas communicate using body language and sounds. The most common sound is a soft hum, although they use others, including a clucking sound and an alarm call. Alpacas usually live to be 15 to 25 years old, are about 3 feet tall at the withers and usually weigh between 110 and 175 pounds. Baby alpacas are called crias, and usually weigh between 14 and 20 pounds at birth. The gestation period for a female alpaca is about 340 days (almost a year) and twins are rare. Two breeds of alpacas are recognized by their different fleece types: huacayas, which make up most of the North American herd, and suris. Huacayas have fluffy, crimpy fiber, while the more lustrous straight fiber of the suri hangs down in long tight locks.
What is baby alpaca yarn?
Baby alpaca fiber typically comes from the first shearing of an alpaca, giving you the softest, most beautiful fiber the animal may ever produce.
Where do Alpacas live?
Alpacas, llamas, vicuñas and guanacos come from South America, primarily Bolivia, Chile and Peru. It is thought that alpacas were originally domesticated from vicuñas in the Andean highlands of Peru more than 6,000 years ago. During the 11th and 12th centuries, alpacas were revered by the Incas, whose husbandry was very sophisticated. The animals were highly selected for abundant fine fiber, and evidence suggests that the quality of fiber then was superior to today's. These years of sophisticated breeding were interrupted by the Spanish conquest of the Incas in the 16th century, when alpacas that were not slaughtered were driven to the higher elevations of Peru and Bolivia, the "altiplano". In the 1800's, alpaca fiber was discovered by the English, and it has been an important worldwide commodity ever since. Peru produces about 90% of the world's alpaca fiber today.
Alpaca Fiber
Alpaca fiber is valuable because of its many positive attributes and relative scarcity. It is as soft as cashmere, more durable than merino wool, fine, lightweight and lustrous. Alpacas come in 22 recognized natural colors with many variations and blends, more than any other fiber producing animal. Each year, an adult alpaca produces an average of five to eight pounds of fiber. In North America, alpaca fiber used to be sold almost exclusively to hand-spinners because there were not enough alpacas to make commercial processing economically viable. This changed in 1998, however, when breeders from all over North America formed the Alpaca Fiber Cooperative of North America, Inc. (AFCNA) to pool and process fiber each year.
Alpacas in the U.S.
Alpacas are a growing part of the modern U.S. agricultural scene; breeding them is gaining popularity as a home business. Alpacas are also used as pets and 4H animals as well as for their luxury fiber. They are easy to train and care for, and are generally healthy and hardy, requiring only basic shelter, shearing, worming and annual vaccinations. Although most breeders enjoy daily contact with their animals, some people buy alpacas and board them with another breeder. Some people show their alpacas in showmanship, halter, obstacle and fleece classes. Alpacas are also used to demonstrate agility or the use of fiber at fairs and other exhibitions. They are excellent for PR and community service, such as visiting schools or nursing homes. They're shy, but generally well-mannered, and their charm and great looks bring smiles to everyone's faces.

Symantec Vision '08 Symantec has stealthily purchased the online storage firm SwapDrive, slipping a reported $123m into the startup's pocket to flesh-out the consumer side of Symantec's web services.
Both companies have been pretty quiet about the deal — but an insider source to TechCrunch cites the noteworthy figure Symantec was willing to pay for SwapDrive. A visit to the SwapDrive site or its sister location Backup.com makes the change of guard now rather obvious.
Symantec already runs web-hosted storage services, Online Backup and Online Storage, targeted only at small and medium businesses. The company opened the service doors in February, about a month after Symantec's storage management rival EMC officially took the reins of Mozy. (We should note, though, that neither company was very quick about entering the market.)
Symantec said in a statement that SwapDrive will be put to use in the Norton portfolio.
"With the completion of the SwapDrive acquisition, we are building a solid foundation upon which to offer our Norton customers a comprehensive solution to help secure and manage all of their digital information, across all of their devices."
A spokesman also confirmed today the deal is strictly for the consumer market. However, he wouldn't go into further details — deferring instead to another statement issued today that is somewhat dismissive of the buy.
The new statement calls it a "small, targeted acquisition" — which is certainly an odd description, if the $123m price tag is to be believed. To compare, EMC only paid an estimated $76m for Mozy. We'd say SwapDrive came out pretty well here.
SwapDrive says it controls more than 60 online backup services and brands. It provides wholesale storage pricing to partners, who then repackage the service and bump up the retail price.
The deal is expected to close by the end of its June 2008 quarter. ®

From the first breaths on the opening track "Price Of Man(ipulation)" to the shrill end of the closer and title track, "Wartime Citizens," The Effort's most recent offering is a visceral, desperate and personal attack on the American dream. It is clear that Effort front man and lyricist Tony Auger is filled with an anger that is so perfectly captured in the poignant and timely sonic assault that this Massachusetts quintet deliver. Swift driving melody laced with elusive sharp edges, a-la Dangers/Touche Amore, The Effort's "Wartime Citizens" can easily stand tall amongst both relevant contemporaries and revered predecessors.

Avery August, Ph. D
Cornell University, Professor and Chair of Microbiology and Immunology
Avery August received his undergraduate degree in Medical Technology at the California State University at Los Angeles, performing research in synthesis of phospholipids for membrane biophysical studies with Prof. Phoebe Dea in the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry. After receiving his degree, he spent a year in the Master's Program in Biochemistry at the same institution, then entered the graduate program in Immunology at the Weill Cornell Graduate School of Medical Sciences (Cornell University) in New York City. There he worked first with Prof. David Posnett on T cell receptors associated with disease, then with Prof. Bo Dupont, with whom he did his PhD thesis. With Prof. Dupont, located at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, he worked on signal transduction in T cells, examining the molecular basis for the two signal hypothesis, signaling by the costimulatory molecule CD28. Among other discoveries, we were among the first to show that the CD28 costimulatory receptor activated the PI3 kinase. We were also the first to show that the Tec kinase ITK is activated by both the T cell receptor, as well as CD28. This work formed the basis for his PhD thesis in 1994.
After receiving the PhD, he took a post-doctoral fellowship in the Laboratory of Molecular Oncology with Prof. Hidesaburo Hanafusa at The Rockefeller University in New York City. Among other discoveries at this time, he was among the first to show that Tec kinases are activated by both Src kinases and PI3 kinase, and that this required the PH domains of these kinases. In addition, he was among the first to show that the breast cancer susceptible gene, BRCA1, possesses transcriptional activity. In 1997, he took a position as Scientist in the Drug Discovery unit at the R.W. Johnson Pharmaceutical Research Institute.
In 1999, he left the R.W. Johnson Pharmaceutical Research Institute for a position as Assistant Professor in the Department of Veterinary & Biomedical Sciences at the Pennsylvania State University at University Park. Here he began examining the role of ITK in the function of T cells and in disease, particularly allergic and airway inflammatory disease. He also worked on other questions, such as the role of signaling pathways in B cells that modulate the actin cytoskeleton and activate the SRF transcription factor. He showed that ITK has kinase independent activity in regulating these pathways. He subsequently showed that this kinase independent function of ITK also regulates the development of invariant NKT cells. He showed for the first time that mice lacking ITK were resistant to developing allergic airway inflammation, and that this was due both to reduced Th2 responses in the mice, as well as for the first time, reduced chemokine receptor mediated migration. Following up on these findings, he found that ITK deficient mast cells have enhanced Fc epsilon Receptor responses, while those lacking both ITK and BTK, a related Tec kinase, are completely defective. He has also determined that eosinophils play a critical role in the development of airway inflammation, in part by regulating IL13 mediated recruitment of T cells to the lung. Along with others, he has discovered that the absence of ITK affects the development of two populations of gamma delta T cells. In the first case, the absence of ITK reduces the development of skin γδ T cells bearing the Vγ3 T cell receptor (sIEL). By contrast, the absence of ITK enhances the development of a population of peripheral γδ T cells that carry Vγ1.1 and Vδ6.2/3, and secrete large amounts of IL4, which can drive the production of IgE in these mice. These cells may also be responsible for another finding he hand others have reported, the presence of T cells with innate memory phenotype in mice lacking ITK. Along the way came promotions to Associate Professor in 2004, to Professor in 2008, and to Distinguished Professor in 2010. He has served as Director of the Center for Molecular Immunology & Infectious Disease and Co-Director of the Graduate Program in Molecular Medicine at Penn State. In 2010, he started his current position as Chair of the Department of Microbiology & Immunology in the College of Veterinary Medicine at Cornell University in Ithaca. At Cornell, he continues to work on these and other issues, including the target of the immunosuppressant BTP, an actin binding protein called drebrin.

Story highlights
Obama touts the virtues of his job growth plan during a stop in Denver
Obama focuses on the importance of new education investments
Obama raised as much as $7.5 million for campaign, DNC and others during his 3-day trip
Polls show Obama may be facing a tough re-election campaign in 2012
President Barack Obama wrapped up a three-day trip to the western part of the country Tuesday with a visit to the political swing state of Colorado, where he renewed the push for his $447 billion economic growth plan and ripped congressional Republicans for opposing higher taxes on the wealthy.
The president focused on the $25 billion education component of the plan, which administration officials say would allow for the reconstruction and modernization of 35,000 public schools.
"Every child deserves a great school – and we can give it to them," Obama told an enthusiastic crowd at a Denver high school. "My question to Congress is: What on Earth are we waiting for? … Let's pass this jobs bill and put teachers back in the classroom where they belong."
On taxes, Obama sought to turn the table on his GOP critics, who have accused the administration of engaging in destructive "class warfare" politics.
"You know what? If asking a millionaire to pay the same tax rate as a plumber makes me … a warrior for the working class, I'll accept that. I'll wear that charge as a badge of honor," Obama declared. "The only warfare I've seen is the battle that's been waged against middle class families for a decade now."
Obama's visit to Colorado – a state he carried in 2008 by 9 percentage points – followed fundraising and other campaign-style stops in California and Washington state.
Obama's trip help raise at least $7.5 million for his re-election campaign, the Democratic National Committee and related political causes, according to one Democratic campaign official.
While the president has revved his campaign machine, there are growing indications that he will face tough political headwinds in 2012 due largely to the weak economy.
A USA Today/Gallup poll released Wednesday found that 53% of Americans blame Obama a great deal or a moderate amount for the continued economic sluggishness. The survey of 1,004 adults had a sampling error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.
The previous week, a CNN/ORC International poll showed that Obama had a disapproval rating of 55%, the highest of his presidency, mirroring other national polling from Gallup and NBC/Wall Street Journal.
CNN's Lesa Jansen and Jessica Yellin contributed to this report.

Kristen's mother plays matchmaker
KRISTEN Stewart's mother Jules is desperate for the actress to make things work with Robert Pattinson and has been giving the couple relationship tips.
Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are taking relationship advice from her mother.
The 'Twilight' star's mum Jules Stewart was reportedly devastated to discover her daughter had cheated on the 26-year-old actor with 'Snow White and the Huntsman' director Rupert Sanders because she thinks of Robert as a son, and is desperate to help the couple move forward.
A source told RadarOnline: "Jules is the glue that's keeping Kristen and Rob together.
It ripped her heart in two when she saw those pictures of Kristen in a compromising situation with Rupert - and she couldn't believe what her daughter had done.
"As far as Jules was concerned, Kristen's relationship with Robert was a match made in heaven and she adored him like he was her own son. At first, she struggled to understand why Kristen wanted to cheat on him."
Robert is said to be having serious "trust issues" with the brunette beauty since their reconciliation and the pair are even visiting a $500 an hour therapist for couples' counselling.
But Jules is their biggest champion and has allegedly been giving the stars constant advice and support to help them rekindle their romance.
The insider added: "Kristen's young and Jules knows mistakes will happen - so she supported her daughter's efforts to win Robert back.
"She has been speaking with Robert, re-iterating Kristen's pleas for another chance and is trying to help build up trust between the pair. It is early days - but if this reconciliation can bring Robert and Kristen back together, they'll have Jules to thank."
Kristen and Robert were spotted enjoying a romantic dinner date in Los Angeles last Saturday and they appeared besotted with each other once more.

Two people were taken into custody after a teenager was shot and killed last night after a high school basketball game held at Chicago State University, 9501 South King Drive.
The Chicago public schools regularly use the facilities at Chicago State as a sort of neutral territory for sporting events.
But fights during games between Morgan Park and Simeon Academy are becoming commonplace. Back in September, a person was stabbed in the stands during a football game. And last night, a young man who attended that football game in September was shot and killed after a basketball game.
Tyrone Lawson, 17, was a big guy. His aunt called the Morgan Park High School senior a gentle giant.
Despite his size his parents say they always worried about him every time he would leave. But they thought he would be safe attending last night's basketball game between Morgan Park and Simeon — mainly because the game was at Chicago State with lots of security.
Shortly before 9:30 p.m. shots rang out in the parking lot of the gym after a fight broke out inside and everyone ran out. Tyrone was hit twice in the back. He died later at the hospital.
There is speculation the shooting was the result of a brief scuffle between players in the handshake line after the game.
A call went out to be on the lookout for a suspicious Jeep. Two people were arrested after police found a gun in that Jeep.
Chicago State police chief Randy Watson is being tight-lipped about the investigation.
"We are utilizing the assistance of the Chicago Police Department and all of their resources," Watson told reporters this morning. "To the best of my knowledge there have been no charges at this point in time."
Tyrone's mother, Pam Wright, says the shooting of young African American men in Chicago has to stop. She is not sure the gun control bills President Obama has just signed will spare another family the pain and loss she is feeling now.
Pam Wright really wants to know why there was not more security outside the basketball game, especially after the fight broke out on the inside. The police chief at Chicago State University would not discuss that, saying it is part of the ongoing investigation.
