Following the last-minute cancelation of the 2014 Ironman Lake Tahoe event, race organizers took 36 hours to assemble a list of "options" for the 2,000+ athletes impacted. This could have been an opportunity for the World Triathlon Corporation (WTC) and Ironman to really go above and beyond in terms of customer service. Instead, they barely fulfilled basic social expectation. Let's break down the options that they provided.

CANCELED: 2014 Ironman Lake Tahoe
(I wrote the first part of this email in a good-natured and understanding mood, but then I got the lackluster "options" email from Ironman and now I'm legitimately angry and felt the need to add a big rant at the end.)
The 2014 IRONMAN Lake Tahoe event was canceled due to poor air quality stemming from the nearby King Fire. As of last night, the King Fire has consumed more than 80,000 acres and destroyed more than ten homes. My heart goes out to all of those who have been and continue to be impacted by this disaster.
To all of the athletes and first-timers who trained all year for this event: You're still champions! You're still in the best shape of your life. It's the months of that make you an Ironman, not the race itself.
As for the race organizers...

IRONMAN Boulder 2014 (Race Report)
Another month, another Ironman challenge! After tackling Ironman Texas in May and Ironman Coeur d'Alene five weeks later, I entered July with an enormous base of fitness. I hadn't been running much, but the knee issue that had kept me sidelined was on the mend. As August approached, so did the date of my next big race: the inaugural Ironman Boulder in Boulder, Colorado.

Key Presses
Hello! I am writing a program where i am trying to control a rectangle and determine where it moves, everything is working fine it is moving but i am trying to figure out how to change direction using the "WASD" keys. This is what I have and I am not sure why its not working. Any tips ?
Java Code:
addKeyListener( new KeyAdapter() { public void keyReleased(KeyEvent event) { for (MoveableShape creature : creatures) { if (((Creature)creature).isPlayer()) { if (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_W) //up { ((Creature)creature).setDirection(0, -1); } else if (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_A) //left { ((Creature)creature).setDirection(-1, 0); } else if (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_S) //down { ((Creature)creature).setDirection(0, 1); } else if (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_D) //right { ((Creature)creature).setDirection(1, 0); } } } } });
Re: Key Presses
You're setting both your horizontal and vertical speed when any key is pressed. That doesn't seem right. You probably only want to set the horizontal speed when A or D are pressed (and released), and you probably only want to set the vertical speed when the W or S are pressed (and released).How to Ask Questions the Smart Way

Re: Key Presses
Although it may not seem right, it is working as expected. I have used the same code for mouse listener, and it is working with mouse clicks. My issue here is not whether the speed or not is set correctly, my issue is that it is unresponsive to my key presses.

text: 4.5 retro style shooter at a crazy price ikaridude | 08/04/2008 | See all ikaridude's reviews (1) Blimey, £7.99 at time of writing!Dont be put off by the wonky box art - This is a top down shooter thats kinda similar to cannon fodder/ikari warriors. You wander through a 3D jungle with your buddies who each have different strengths. One has a fast machine gun, another is a sniper (can spot mines), the bazooka guy is great fun (explode enemies) and the medic fella is best at healing. You also get grenades and airstrike attacks (like smart bombs).Controls take a little getting used to, the guns have an autoaim rather than direction lock, so you have to tackle enemies with some tactical care rather than racing in all guns blazing.I thought the 1st level was a but dull (trains you on controls I guess), but things pick up from there on. Level 2 sees you getting all your squad together for a big fight at the end, and level 3 packs features lots of airstrikes/a big river/villages/mortar attacks and the 1st end of level boss!!! (no this is not a realistic historical game). I think there are 10 main levels and 11 extras to unlock.The enemies start off pretty dumb, but gear up as the game progresses. Later you encounter enemy tanks, flame turrets, spawn bunkers and pigs! yes you can explode pigs and cows and chickens (herd chickens into fires for a surprise ;) - AWESOMEThe dialogue between teammates although cheesey at times often riffs off jungley movies like PREDATOR and APOCALYPSE NOW, and doesnt take itself too seriously.The touch screen controls are just for squad commands (like stop and follow), and are easily handled using big thumbs - although you dont need to order them that much, this is an arcade shooter not an rts.Bonus levels get unlocked if you get a good rating on a normal mission. These bonus ones are quite puzzley and different to the campaign, some are super insane hard challenges and some are just silly fun (the pacman level for example). With all the bonus levels i think its 21 in total.Here are some pro points:Varied levels (get very big later too).Classic arcade shooting fun, lots to blow up.Big end of level bosses!Nice animal details like snakes and parrots in the jungle.Puzzley bonus levels.Good jungly themed tunes (reminds me of predator)Here are some minor cons that stop this getting 5 stars:The first level is a bit uneventful.No multiplayer is a shame.Menus seem a bit basic.Some of the later levels are quite hardcore and dont have mid level save points, so you need to pace yourself.All in all a good fun old skool shooter!

The Sunday Ticker: Kathie Lee's Musical, Claman's Triathlon, Murdoch's Bid
- Kathie Lee Gifford revealed this week that she has written a musical about the "Today" show. The 18-minute musical, titled "Not Today and Tomorrow's Not Looking Good Either," features all the show's anchors and crew. "It's going to be live and it's going to be so much fun," Gifford said on "Today" Friday.
- Fox Business anchor Liz Claman does a pair of interviews — with the Star-Ledger and Well + Good — about competing in her sixth New York City triathlon today. Claman is raising money for Building Homes For Heroes, a charity for wounded war veterans. "They embraced me and I embraced them and, to date, I've brought in $350,000 since I started raising money for them four years ago," Claman said.
- Variety reports on how far Rupert Murdoch will go to acquire Time Warner, which a managing director at RBC Capital Markets calls "the $64,000 question." "It's not purely what Time Warner's worth, it's what Fox can pay," he says.

HollywoodLife.com spoke with Carson Underwood, a former friend of Farrah's, who says that Farrah begged him to star on VH1's 'Couples Therapy' and pretend to be her boyfriend. But when he refused, she freaked out and blocked him on Facebook and Twitter!
Farrah Abraham is absolutely desperate for 15 more minutes of reality TV fame, according to Carson Underwood. HollywoodLife.com spoke with Carson, who told us that he met Farrah at an American Music Awards after party on Nov. 18, 2012 in LA and that was the only time that they ever hung out in person! You'll never believe what happened next.
Farrah Abraham's Relationship With Carson Underwood
Carson went on to tell HollywoodLife.com that he and Farrah spoke for a few months via text and things definitely got flirty. But she never came out to LA again, and he even offered to fly her out.
"It took me a good two months before I googled who she was," Carson tells us. "[Being on Teen Mom] didn't bother me. She's a nice person, I had no issues with her. The possibility of going on a date always came up. I told her I'd fly her out, but she thought she was getting a spin-off and she didn't come out."
Carson says things took a turn when she started becoming really possessive in February and started asking him if he would ever date her.
"She had almost borderline psychotic episodes," he says. " She said 'Are you single? Would you be interested in dating me?' and I told her, 'you know when you came out here, we would do dinner, drinks.' But she didn't like that."
Farrah Told Producers Carson Was Her Boyfriend
Carson claims that Farrah was telling producers at VH1 that he was her boyfriend so that she could star on Couples Therapy.
"She was using me more as her boyfriend and representing me to VH1 as her boyfriend," he told us. "I notified them and I said I don't know where she came up with this."
Carson Told Farrah He Wouldn't Star On 'Couples Therapy' With Her
Carson says that he called Farrah to tell her the news that he wouldn't be on the show on March 17: "It was on the phone, she said, 'I can't discuss this right now but whatever!' I said I wanted to cease contact and Monday she received the news from VH1 that they would be passing on her."
Carson says that when he woke up on the following day on March 18, the same morning of Farrah's DUI arrest, that she had de-friended him on Facebook and blocked him on Twitter. We told you that Farrah was arrested for an alleged DUI that day because police say her blood alcohol registered at a .174, twice the legal limit in her home state of Nebraska.
"She took the relationship and exploited it," he tells us. "It was an attack on my credibility as a human being."
But Carson says he has no hard feelings: "In the end I wish her all the best and I hope she places priorities on her daughter. We never dated, I met her once for a few hours, I found her to be interesting. It just erupted into this whole other nightmare."
Interestingly enough, TMZ is reporting that MTV's Catelynn Lowell and her fiance, Tyler Baltierra, have just joined the cast of Couples Therapy.
HollywoodLife.com has reached out to both Farrah and VH1 for comment.

I remember Daniel who couldn't even stand her for a paycheck. He quit the show and said he couldn't take it anymore. She actually asked his stepmother why she didn't haven't kids yet and said shed be a lonely old crow or something cruel. This woman was probably about 50, or nearly. I can't believe they didn't kick her out on the spot. Who would say that to a childless woman? She either didn't want kids or couldn't. Its no ones business, its too late now, and it could be a painful issue. Way to make a first impression.

Wow I never liked Farrah from day one she was a rude disrespectful brat to her parents and a neglectful mother to her child..Her song sucked balls,that was the most terrible music I have ever heard.I agree with her friend she really does need to focus on her child & lay off the plastic surgery it didn't help any…,and do the world a favor plz stay off tv….

Some Have Enough to Retire, Some Don't
Q: My question is very simple. I am 55 years old. I have a government job from which I can retire and have about a $4,000-a-month annuity. I also have a house payment of $1,600 (still owe 25-plus years), but no other major debt. And I have saved $450,000 in a 401(k) account. Can I retire based on this scenario? -- T.H.,... continue

Do you know what an NEB is? How about Svenborgia? Then by all means check out this handy dandy guide to Tom Miller's Tomfoolery. Included in this guide: what to expect, some vocab, and a few influences and inspirations.
Beating Is Cheating? Seriously?
What hell hath David Duchovny's sex addiction wrought? Per reports, Duchovny's sin of choice was self abuse (before he was cured). This has led to a lively discussing about what entails infidelity. And is masturbating on the list? If so, seriously? What if that's the only way someone can orgasm? This and many more questions deserve answers. Also, Bree Sharp's "David Duchovny Why Won't You Love Me?" is a totally appropriate song.
I Work For A Ladies' Magazine (I'm A Man)
The author goes to work of a ladies magazine and learns a lot about living and a little about love. He finds out that it's not all red carpet invites, sex advice, and kinky pillow fights. But he does get some pretty good relationship advice and learns a thing or 2 about computer networking.
Worst Best Man Ever?
The Simpsons started us down this road in which everything is the best, worst, most, or least. Sure, it could be the Best Week Ever, but it probably isn't. In that regard, what makes a Best Man the best man? And what makes him the worst Best Man? There are probably degrees of ruining a wedding and this video has to be right up there.
Bromance To Be Exploited By Callous TV Executives
You may know Brody Jenner as the slacker heartthrob from MTV's The Hills. It probably seems like this dude has it made. But it looks like he's missing a best bro. So, MTV is doing the only thing it can; trying to help Brody Jenner a new man crush. They're hooking him up with a reality show that will help him make a new best bud. The show uses challenges involving male bonding to eliminate unworthy contestants. This should not stand. These television jokers are making a mockery of bromance. This could set the man crush back decades.
Texas Weatherman Proposes On Air
A weatherman in Lubbock, Texas used another stations news set to propose to his girlfriend. It turns out that she's an anchor for ABC and he's the rain-and-shine guy for CBS. But that did not stop Matt Laubhan from asking Emily Leonard to be his wife on Lubbock's KMAC evening news.
Now There's PG Porn
Writer / Director James Gunn has something new for you. Do you enjoy porn except for the nasty sex part? Do flimsy plots and bad acting really push your buttons? Then check out PG Porn. First up, Nailing Your Wife. Real porn star Aria Giovanni and actor Nathan Fillion almost get it on in this first family friendly porn.
MTV Ruins Bromance
MTV is scheduled to come out with a show entitled Bromance this fall essentially ushering in an era in which hereto life-partnerships are now for sale. The show features one Brody Jenner as a dude in need of a new best bro. You may know Brody Jenner as the son of legendary decathlete of 1970s (and Kardashian fuddy duddy) Bruce Jenner. Or you may know him from his exploits on any number of Southern California lifestyle, silver spoon exploitation shows like The Hills or The Princes of Malibu. Evidently (and we're not making this up), the younger Jenner needs a new close, personal buddy since he refused to side with Spencer Pratt in a feud against The Hills' star Lauren Conrad (LC!). Sure, it's not like the winner of the 6-episode arc is contractually required to be Brody's bro, but he will probably get some The Hills airtime as part of Jenner's posse. And I think this sounds like a terrible idea.
Introducing Tomfoolery
Hey Gang,Thanks for checking in on my new new column. It's called Tomfoolery. Is the name a little cheap? Sure. But Miller Time was going to get me sued and SportGoofin' didn't make any sense. This new column will carry a lot of themes from the old Daily Dish but cover a little more ground and dive slightly deeper. Do I love writing about "Strange Love and Celebrity Hijinks"? Yes, yes I do. But we cover it all in Love Buzz and Celeb Love, respectively. So, what do you expect this time around? A guy's take.
I Work For A Ladies Magazine
I once worked for a ladies magazine called Tango. And I only call it a ladies magazine because it was founded by a lady. And it was about love and relationships (not something most dudes read voluntarily, I suppose). And it was mostly staffed by ladies. I learned a lot about changing water cooler bottles, moving furniture, computer networking, you know, guy sh*t. It's not to say that women can't be really, really good at lifting stuff or making computers talk to each other, but I have a feeling that it was a kindness to me. Working for a ladies magazine, in their estimation, had to be emasculating enough for a young rascal from the dirty dirty living in New York.

tientien_n The hostel is very nice. The location is near to some tourist spot like Imperial Palace, Wat Poh, Wat Arun. I can find daily needs easily at the location. The hostel is clean and they have secure security. Every guest is given a chop to access enterance door and room. There are 5 PCs and wifi access, so we can get through the internet and send news to our family and friends easily. The staffs assist us with warming smile. They also maintain the cleanliness every day. I like to stay at NapPark at Khao San and hopefully back again in the future. It's suggestion from me, it would be better if the hostel improve their service by serving coffee or tea in the morning with some bread then, the guest who will walk to get their next destination or visit some places not be hungry in the early morning even there's 7 eleven store around there.

paul.c84 I'd stayed at Lub*d a few months previously when first arriving in Bangkok. So I decided to book another stay there for my last night before flying home again back in December. Across all areas the hostel seemed to me to be very professionally run. The staff are helpful and most speak very good English, they were very busy but were always helpful and polite. The design and layout of the building very open and welcoming, its feels fresh and it kept very clean. I noticed a few small fixtures that needed fixing/replacing but these were minor. The dorms are large and have good security, only complaint was that the one i was in was quite dark as the main light was dim and at one end of the dorm. Though i guess this is good if you're the one asleep and someone gets in late and turns the light on. Each bunk had its own light and power point which was useful. Some travellers may think the hostel is poorly located as its in the Silom area. While it is far from Khao San Rd and the main sight in that area of town, it is actually a very good location in my opinion. Its not far from Chinatown and the main train station which is just in walking distance. Best of all its an easy short walk to the closest skytrain station which then links you to a lot of Bangkok areas. I needed to get to the airport early one morning and this was very simple to achieve via the train network. Theres loads of good shopping and eating around the area the hostel is in. My tip is to walk south out of Decho Rd on to Silom then turn right, walk along until you see the quite unique looking temple across on the left side of the road, turn right there down a street which has a lot of food stalls selling freshly cooked seafood. The food there was amazing and very well priced. About 50-80 baht for a really good pad thai, curry etc.

NCAA basketball March Madness: Even top seeds lose money
Fill out your brackets, find an excuse to stay home from work - March Madness is officially under way.
While college players are running layup drills in their sleep, the National Collegiate Athletic Association has already made its game-winning shot: a $6.1 billion, 11-year deal with network CBS to air the men's basketball tournament, signed in 1999. This year alone, the NCAA expects to rake in $638.9 million from media rights, virtually all of it from men's basketball.
So, with all that cash rolling in, basketball must be a moneymaker for colleges and universities, right?
Nope. Most college basketball teams lose money.
How about championship-caliber teams?
Not really. "If you look at basketball teams as a stand-alone company, virtually none of the teams come out ahead," says Andrew Zimbalist, a sports economist at Smith College in Northampton, Mass.
So where does all that CBS money go?
First, there's the cost of running the tournaments themselves - the facilities, travel, referees, etc. That's about 10 percent of the NCAA's $600 million, says Victor Matheson, an economist at Holy Cross College in Worcester, Mass.
The rest is redistributed back to the NCAA schools.
A large chunk gets divided equally among members, regardless of their performance.
"Holy Cross gets the same amount of money as a big school like Ohio State," says Professor Matheson.
That money will help subsidize the school's other sports but even then won't cover the cost of running a college's entire athletic program. The school will have to pick up the remaining tab.
Other sports, like men's lacrosse and hockey bring in a little money, says Matheson, mostly in the form of ticket sales. But most do not.
The cost of staging the Division III swimming championship? That money comes from the big sports like basketball.
There is some financial advantage to winning. Another chunk of the NCAA's media money - estimated at $167 million this year - is redistributed back to the individual conferences based on how well they have done in previous years' men's basketball tournaments.
Each conference gets one NCAA share - worth $222,000 this year - for each game their member teams appear in during March Madness. The further a team advances, the more shares (and money) its conference receives.
For example, the Big East Conference, of which mighty University of Connecticut is a member, had its 16 teams appear in 104 tournament games over the last six seasons. That means it's entitled to $23.1 million from the NCAA this year. The conference will then distribute that money as its sees fit.
So very successful basketball teams can reap more money.
But the expenses of being successful are also high: coaching salaries, recruiting costs, tutoring and player scholarships - not to mention facilities, which aren't included in most teams' accounting. The coach of last year's NCAA tournament winner — Roy Williams of North Carolina — earns more than $1.5 million a year.
Only about 2 percent of the Division I teams come out ahead, says Professor Zimbalist. "It's not a very good investment to say, 'I'm going to put money into a basketball team to go to Final Four.' "

Bears experienced similar situation in '11, bounced back
BY MARK POTASH firstname.lastname@example.com September 14, 2012 9:48PM
Jay Cutler also was roughed up in Week 2 last season, but he recovered to win six of the next eight games. | AP
Updated: October 16, 2012 6:13AM
Brian Urlacher told it like it was after the Bears were outsmarted and outplayed in a 23-10 loss Thursday night against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field.
''Maybe we're not as good as we thought we were,'' Urlacher said. ''We've got a long ways to go, and that's obvious. Maybe Green Bay is just that good — I don't know. But we didn't play well, and they played good enough to do what they did to us.''
The Bears and Jay Cutler were skewered by fans, media and critics from coast to coast after the nationally televised debacle. But while there was no defending the discouraging performance, they could take legitimate solace in one factor: They've been here before.
Last year, in fact — when the Bears arguably laid an even bigger egg in a 30-13 loss to the New Orleans Saints at the Superdome in Week 2 after an impressive 30-12 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in their opener. Cutler was sacked six times in that one and could barely speak after being kicked in the throat in one late-game onslaught.
The Bears recovered to win six of their next eight games, including five in a row to give them a 7-3 record with six games to go. Their season was doomed only after Cutler suffered a broken thumb.
''Disappointing effort,'' coach Lovie Smith said. ''I thought we would play better in a lot of different areas. We know it's always tough coming up [to Lambeau Field]. We are better than we showed. All three phases ... didn't play well enough.
''As disappointed as we are, we are 1-1. This counts as one loss.''
It might have been more costly than that. Running back Matt Forte suffered what could be a high ankle sprain early in the third quarter and could miss two to six weeks. But after losing to the Saints last year, the Bears lost right tackle Gabe Carimi for the season with a partially dislocated kneecap and wide receiver Earl Bennett for five games with what they said was a chest bruise.
Carimi had a costly personal-foul penalty against Green Bay that stunted a promising early drive. But he was still standing at the end. He acknowledged his culpability for the ''stupid'' play.
''That hurt the team a lot, and that is all on me,'' Carimi said. ''It was a stupid penalty, and I need to learn from my mistakes.''
He has a lot of company in that regard. The Bears committed eight penalties, threw four interceptions and gave up seven sacks. They were burned by a fake field goal that tight end Tom Crabtree turned into a 27-yard touchdown on a fourth-and-26 play that gave the Packers a 10-0 lead.
But after playing poorly with three days between games, the Bears have 10 days before facing the St. Louis Rams on Sept. 23 at Soldier Field. The loss to the Packers wasn't pretty, but the Bears have time to prove Urlacher's assessment wrong.
''We're definitely as good as we think we are, but offensively we have to do a better job,'' said wide receiver Brandon Marshall, who didn't even have a ball thrown his way in the first half and finished with two receptions for 24 yards. ''They're a great team. They won the Super Bowl two years ago. So it's going to take more than just walking on the field to dethrone them.''

U of M student hatched plot to rob Bradford, enlisted 3 others, police say
Memphis police charged four men Monday, including a University of Memphis student, in the killing of football player Taylor Bradford in a robbery gone awry.
Police announced the arrests of three non-students during an afternoon press conference before homicide detectives charged the U of M student late in the day.
Bradford and the student suspect knew each other, and there had been bad blood between them, police said.
The popular football player was accosted by robbers outside his apartment at Carpenter Complex on Tiger Paw East about 9:30 p.m. Sept. 30.
He was shot during the robbery attempt, but drove his vehicle a short distance to Zach Curlin and Central, where he crashed it.
Bradford was inside his vehicle when he was shot, according to the charges. He was killed by a bullet wound on the right side of his torso.
Bradford had won several thousand dollars at Horseshoe Casino the night before his death, and had $7,400 in his pocket when he was found.
Monday evening, prosecutors approved murder charges against U of M student Devin Jefferson, 21, accused of hatching the robbery plot that led to Bradford's death.
Earlier Monday during a press conference, Police Director Larry Godwin confirmed charges against three men who set out to rob Bradford, and shot him during the botched holdup.
Godwin said he had talked to Bradford's parents. "It was very upsetting for them," he said. The parents' "love for their son is like no other."
Daeshawn Tate, 21, Courtney Washington, 22, and Victor Trezevant, 21, were charged with first-degree murder in perpetration of an attempted aggravated robbery.
The arrests came after an around-the-clock investigation, numerous witness interviews, and "countless man hours" reviewing video surveillance footage.
Various Memphis Police units and the Shelby County Sheriff's Department's Street Crimes Unit helped track the suspects down on Sunday.
"He was targeted because of the information that was out there," Godwin said. "They believed he had some cash, or something else they wanted," he said.
Jefferson hatched a plot to rob Bradford and enlisted the other three, police said.
Jefferson and Bradford had a fistfight in June, police said, and were locked in a personal feud. Police did not say what started the fistfight.
Jefferson was arrested at a student dorm on campus last November on trespassing charges. It was not clear how the charges were resolved.
Jefferson was also questioned in a second-degree murder last year, but released without charge, according to court records.
U of M president Shirley Raines said the arrests confirm the university's original contention that the murder was not a random act, but rather a targeted attack.
"We want to thank those of our students and members of the community who came forward to help with this investigation," she said.
"Although this has been a tragic and trying week for the University of Memphis and the entire community, we are pleased that these arrests have been made swiftly."
Memphis homicide detectives questioned more than 200 people during their weeklong investigation, Lt. Joseph Scott said.
"We got a tip after pounding the pavement," Scott said.
The detectives had developed the four men as suspects, but continued to piece together minute bits of information.
Then, last week, detectives got a tip that a 1990s Mercury Grand Marquis was seen on a public parking lot near the Carpenter Complex just before the shooting.
The car contained three men, the tipster said. Two of them were seen walking toward the Carpenter Complex just before Bradford was killed.
Police were able to identify the vehicle, Scott said. It traced back to Washington.
Washington last year pleaded guilty to facilitating a robbery and was sentenced to two years in prison.
"That confirmed a lot of things," Scott said.
When questioned Sunday, Tate, Washington and Trezevant all admitted to taking part in the attempted robbery that ended in Bradford's death, according to the charges.
The three men are not U of M students, police said. Police did not say how they were connected to Jefferson.
All four suspects are eligible for the death penalty, Dist. Atty. Gen. Bill Gibbons said. However, no decision has been made on whether to pursue the death penalty.
"It excites me that there are some people in custody," U of M football coach Tommy West said. "We've had our fingers crossed and have been saying our prayers that they'll find the people who did this."
Police said no further charges are expected.

text: Opening new horizonsIEC style miniature circuit breakers (MCB) according to ENNEC 60 898 are not always permitted in North America. For this reason, MCBs were developed that were based on the miniature circuit breakers of the 5SY series and met the special requirements of UL 489.Within the sphere of influence of NEMA (National Electrical Manufacturers Association) and ANSI (American National Standards Institute) MCBs are certified as a solution for protective applications and can be used for branch circuit protection in the branches of control panels and systems.The connection terminals are designed for the class: "Field wiring". This means that, as well as being installed in a factory, the MCBs can be installed locally at customer sites. In addition to the permissible tripping ranges according to UL 489, device tipping characteristics C and D to ENNEC 60 898 have also been adapted. Therefore, the MCBs comply with both standards.

.- Archbishop Hector Aguer of La Plata warned this week that the fall of the birthrate is "an urgent and very serious problem," and that "it is not only a cultural, social and political issue, but also an ethical and religious one as well."
In his television program, "Keys to a Better World," the archbishop commented on a study published in Italy entitled, "Why We Should Have More Kids. The Consequences of the Drop in Births."
After recalling the 40th anniversary of the publication of Humanae Vitae, the archbishop said Paul VI's letter dealt with "a problem that was already resolved in the moral tradition of the Church."
"In that encyclical the Pope warned about the consequences that would follow from the alteration of married life and the family order. One of them is what the countries that have entered a sort demographic winter are experiencing," the archbishop added.
He lamented that the Pope's famous letter was not heeded like it should have been. "Even within the Church herself it was disputed and many tried to discredit the Pope's message in it."
Archbishop Aguer suggested the encyclical be re-read, because the problem of the fall of the birthrate requires a "reformulation of the Christian conscience" and renewed adherence to "this norm of the natural order."
"Marriage was made not only for the union of the two persons involved but also for the transmission of life. The unitive and the procreative meanings of the conjugal act cannot be dissociated from each other with impunity," the archbishop stated.

A Double Dose of Braid Inspiration from the Grammy Red Carpet
We've seen our fair share of pretty braids here at Lucky. And just when you think you've seen every braid possible, this year's Grammys brought two interesting ways to incorporate them into your hairstyle.
Colbie Caillat not only had a braid that she coiled into a super high bun, she had a cool Dutch braid that started just to the side of the nape of her neck and ran up the back of her head into the rest of her hair.
During Sara Bareilles' red carept interview, she told Giuliana Rancic on E! News that her intricate half-up hairstyle was inspired by Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games. Hairstylist Roland Beauchamp created the look by first spraying Garnier Fructis Style Deconstructed Beach Chic Texturizing Spray ($3.49, target.com) on her damp hair. Then he did loose cornrow braids and curled the ends of her hair to achieve a "roughed up" look to contrast with her feminine Blumarine gown.
And check out a 360 degree look of the braid style on Sara, above!

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) – The fight over a proposed pipeline to transport crude oil from Canada to Gulf Coast refineries is picking up again as groups urge President Barack Obama to either approve or reject the pipeline.
The American Petroleum Institute held a conference call with reporters Thursday to emphasize the virtues of the Keystone XL pipeline that TransCanada wants to build.
API is the oil and gas industry's main lobbying group, and spokesman Marty Durbin says Obama should approve the pipeline as soon as possible to boost the economy.
But environmental groups plan a protest outside the White House on Sunday. They want Obama to reject the pipeline because they worry that it could contaminate water supplies, increase air pollution around refineries and harm wildlife.

Listen to our latest Fantasy Football Podcast!
Oh Week 17, you little devil! On one hand, you provide us with our last full slate of NFL games for seven months, and for that we're grateful. On the other, you create even more problems for Fantasy owners than the other 16 weeks of the season, and for that we're frustrated.
This year is better than most final Sundays, thanks to a number of upsets and playoff implications forced by Week 16. Not many teams will go into their games planning on benching their starters. But many teams might start games with their first-team units and then pull them once they know their playoff fates. In other words, a player who might start a Week 17 game is not promised to finish based on circumstances that won't be known until hours after lineups lock on Sunday afternoon.
If you're in a league that plays its championship in Week 17, don't bemoan it. You knew it was coming all along and now you have to play it. I'm still decidedly against league trophies being handed out solely on the results from the final week of the regular season, but I understand why commissioners do it. Because it's football, and why waste a good week of football?
You can remind yourself of that when you see Brian Hoyer jog on the field on Sunday in place of Tom Brady.
The Patriots
New England has clinched home-field advantage throughout the playoffs, rendering their home matchup against the Dolphins Sunday completely and utterly useless. They had the exact same situation last year when they played at Houston. They ran their starters out on the field and took a death blow to their playoff hopes when Wes Welker suffered major knee ligament damage when he tried to cut on the Reliant Stadium turf. He barely made it back on time for the 2010 season.
Have they learned their lesson? As far as solely playing starters in a meaningless game, probably not. All indications out of New England are that the prominent Patriots will play at least a half with some banged-up veterans taking a seat. That might mean a week off for Deion Branch, who has been on the injury report for two weeks with a knee injury but has played on Sundays, or a week off for Aaron Hernandez, who was inactive last week with a hip issue. But it's not a week off for Brady, Welker, BenJarvus Green-Ellis, Rob Gronkowski and Danny Woodhead. Expect them to play a decent amount, though Pats coach Bill Belichick has been known to appease some veterans in his final regular-season contests. In the 2005 season, Doug Flutie drop kicked an extra point, a year later Vinny Testaverde became the first player to throw a touchdown in 20 NFL seasons. In the 2008 campaign LaMont Jordan scored his last NFL touchdown, and who could forget how the Patriots' 2007 regular season ended?
With vets like Sammy Morris, Alge Crumpler and Fred Taylor on the roster, who knows if Belichick has something in store for them. Moreover, what Fantasy owner would start any of those three? What Fantasy owner would risk his season on any other Patriots player knowing that a major personnel overhaul could happen at any point in the game? Be careful with any Patriots in Week 17.
The Steelers and the Ravens
The Steelers will lock up the No. 2 seed with a win at Cleveland. A loss jeopardizes that, so rest assured, Ben Roethlisberger, Rashard Mendenhall, Mike Wallace & Co. will play to win. At the same time, the Ravens will play at home vs. the Bengals, and if they win and the Steelers lose, they'll win the AFC North and get the No. 2 seed.
Here's the issue: If the Ravens look up at the scoreboard and see the Steelers winning 28-0 in Cleveland in the fourth quarter, will they continue to play their starters? A rational hunch suggests they won't since a loss won't change their current seeding at No. 5 in the AFC.
The Jets
The Jets are locked into a wild-card berth and will be on the road next week no matter what they do. For them to move into the No. 5 seed (and a potential playoff rematch at Indy), they'd have to beat the Bills at home and have the Steelers lose and Ravens win. Rex Ryan might consider a matchup at Kansas City to be more favorable and tell Mark Sanchez to put his feet up on Sunday. Ryan has already waffled on how much time he'll give his quarterback, and by extension could do the same with several of his veterans. It wouldn't be a surprise to see the Jets call off the dogs in this game (and thus get a powerful performance out of the Bills' key skill-position players).
The Chiefs
Kansas City has clinched a home playoff game (but no chance of a bye), and head coach Todd Haley already said this week that he's playing his starters in the home finale vs. Oakland. Here's their predicament: If they win, they lock up the No. 3 seed and likely will get a Jets visit to Arrowhead as a prize. If they lose and the Colts win, they fall to the No. 4 seed and welcome the Ravens instead. Big difference. It seems sensible that the Chiefs' starters will play until (and if) they build an insurmountable lead. There is a chance they could freeze Jamaal Charles after maybe 14 or 15 carries since he's their most potent offensive weapon.
The Colts and the Jaguars
Both teams are expected to play their hearts out because a win means a lot to both. With a win vs. the Titans, the Colts clinch the AFC South and at worst the No. 4 seed (at best the No. 3 seed if the Chiefs lose). Suffice to say, Peyton Manning won't get pulled for Curtis Painter like he did after 18 pass attempts in Week 17 last year.
Get the latest news and analysis from the most informed Fantasy staff in the industry by following us on Twitter and Facebook.
The Jaguars need a win at the Texans and a Colts loss to the Titans to land the division title and no better than the No. 4 seed. Good luck with that. Jaguars head coach Jack Del Rio said it best on Sunday: "We can't count on Tennessee for anything next week in Indianapolis." A loss by the Jaguars would put their season at 8-8 and potentially Del Rio's career in Jacksonville on the chopping block, so expect the first-team offense to play the whole game.
The Falcons, the Saints and the Buccaneers
The only thing standing in the way of the Falcons earning the No. 1 seed in the NFC is the 2-13 Carolina Panthers. If (snicker) the Falcons can find a way (hee haw) to get past the Panthers (chortle), they'll lock up the division. Can't say I like the Panthers' chances. That should mean a good amount of playing time for the Falcons' starters.
That leaves the Saints with a home showdown against the playoff-minded Buccaneers. New Orleans would win the division and get a bye (potentially the No. 1 seed) with a win and a Falcons loss. But something tells me that's not going to happen. In fact, it wouldn't be a surprise if the Saints were in a situation much like the Ravens could be in and pull their starters once the scoreboard shows the division rival they need to lose as winners. Face it: If the Falcons are up big on the Panthers in the second half, the Saints will have no reason to keep their starters out there.
That would benefit the Buccaneers greatly. Tampa Bay's playoff hopes are slim; if they beat the Saints and the Giants and Packers both lose, they're on their way to the playoffs. Both the Giants and Packers play after 4 p.m. ET while the Bucs roll at 1 p.m. ET., so it all starts with a win at New Orleans, a place they won last season when their team was awful. The Bucs will go full-bore.
The Bears
Chicago has won the NFC North and has a first-round bye clinched thanks to the Eagles loss on Tuesday. The only way the Bears can go from the No. 2 seed to the No. 1 seed is if the Falcons and Saints both lose. Atlanta and New Orleans both play at 1 p.m. ET, Chicago plays at 4:15 p.m. ET, so the Bears will know their standing just before they take the field.
That makes their situation interesting. Obviously if the Saints and Falcons both lose, the Bears will play for the No. 1 seed. If either NFC South team wins, then the Bears technically have nothing to play for. In the past under Lovie Smith, starters have rested when there's nothing on the line in Week 17, and it's worked for the Bears and hurt the Bears: In 2005 the starters rested, the Bears had a bye and then the Panthers beat them in the Divisional round. In the '06 season the Bears rested their starters, enjoyed a bye and then narrowly beat the Seahawks in overtime en route to Super Bowl XLI.
"I think by resting a few guys, I don't think you all of a sudden -- if guys get 20 less plays or something like that in a game -- that all of a sudden they stop playing good football," Smith said earlier this week. "I just don't see it that way. [If] we were in a position where we didn't play our guys the entire game, I don't think that has a whole lot to do with what would happen that next week."
That should tell you everything you need to know about Smith's mindset. We could (and likely will) see several key Bears take a rest.The only way Smith will play his starters the entire game is if they persuade him to, or if Smith thinks he could do his team and the rest of the NFC a favor by knocking off the Packers. That's something Bears fans would love, but is it best for the team?
The Packers and the Giants
The Packers clinch a playoff spot with a win vs. the Bears. Pretty straight-forward, and it could be a cakewalk for them given that Chicago's starters might check out. The starters will play on.
That's bad news for the Giants, who need a win at Washington and a Packers loss to clinch a wild-card berth, which means they won't rest anybody either.
The Eagles
Thanks to their Week 16 loss to Minnesota, the Eagles are locked into the No. 3 seed and their game against the Cowboys on Sunday is meaningless. The Eagles have had no problem resting their starters in the past and it seems very likely that we'll see a lot of Kevin Kolb, Jerome Harrison, Riley Cooper and Jason Avant, not Michael Vick, LeSean McCoy, DeSean Jackson and Jeremy Maclin, come Week 17.
The NFC West
The Rams will play at the Seahawks on Sunday night to determine the NFC West champions and the No. 4 seed in the NFC. No one's getting benched in the game, but aside from Steven Jackson no one should be considered a desirable Fantasy starter.
The rest of the league
Every team will try and find some motivation, but be warned starting players on road teams with nothing to play for and no one to upset in Week 17. We could very easily see mail-in jobs (particularly defensively) from the Bengals, Cardinals, Chargers, Dolphins, Titans and Vikings. Not surprisingly, all but the Cardinals and Chargers could have new coaching staffs in place come 2011.
Fantasy & Reality
Quick observations about the misconceptions (Fantasy) and truths (Reality) during the week's action.
Fantasy: Rashad Jennings and Kevin Boss will help owners clinch Fantasy titles. No incorrect picks I made all year have me as upset as these two. Jennings, who I started in one of my own league finals, got no help from his offensive line and was seemingly running in place all game long. Even Jack Del Rio said as much after the game -- it makes me think that had Maurice Jones-Drew played he would have also done poorly. As for Boss, three targets and no catches against a defense that had been porous against opposing tight ends. I'm pretty sure the Packers' game plan heading into the game wasn't to shut Boss down at all costs, but the stats sure look like it was.
Reality: Reggie Wayne caught a case of the Asomugha. I know it would have been hard for Wayne's owners to sit him in Week 16, but if there's one thing we know about how Peyton Manning operates (and how most quarterbacks operate), it's that he plays the matchups. With stud cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha on Wayne for most of the game, Peyton threw his way six times vs. nine for Jacob Tamme, eight for Pierre Garcon and five for Blair White. The same that happened to Wayne happened to Anquan Boldin, too.
Fantasy: The Jets-Bears game will be low scoring. I had a feeling Jay Cutler would have a pretty good game, but with four total touchdowns he overachieved past any thoughts anyone had. The difference in the game? Mike Martz opted to change strategies in the second half and send his receivers deep when the Jets played man coverage. Cutler's three touchdowns all came from 25 or more yards out. With seven total touchdowns in his last two games, he's peaking at just the right time.
Reality: I won a Fantasy league with Tim Tebow as my quarterback and Adrian Peterson on my bench. In a long-running 14-team PPR league where I drafted well and then made tons of mistakes (traded Joe Flacco for Austin Collie, cut Jay Cutler for Matthew Stafford when Stafford came back, traded Thomas Jones and Steve Johnson for Dwayne Bowe), I made these two huge decisions and at least one (Tebow) paid off. Really, Tebow's game was awful against the Texans as his mid- and deep-ball accuracy is really bad. But he threw a ton of short screens and rumbled for his second rushing touchdown in as many weeks and wound up with over 300 yards passing and two total scores (his other touchdown was a screen pass that Correll Buckhalter weaved into a touchdown). Starting him over Shaun Hill and Jon Kitna, my other lowly options, was the biggest move I made. Want to know why it paid off? Because I played the matchups.
At some point this offseason, I won't tell you when, I promise to recap my team in this league and in it you'll see all the things I did to pull off the championship. I should probably save my deepest, darkest trade secrets for a book (whaddya think, Simon & Schuster?) but I might spill the beans when I write about this team. The only way to know when I do it is to keep checking with CBSSports.com during the offseason -- something you should do anyway if you care about Fantasy Football.
Pre-Parting shot
• It's almost the end of the year, which means you're a week away from reading what is now my annual "Letter From The Future." I'm in the business of projecting and predicting, but even last year's letter was pretty amazing. And I don't mean amazing in a bad way, haters, I mean amazing in a "I-can't-believe-I-wrote-that-and-it-kinda-sorta-came-true" way.
Wait and see what's in store in next week's column -- not just predictions from the future but playoff predictions and guesses on who will coach where next year (those were amazing in a bad way last year). It's a good read and I would hate for you to miss it.
Parting shots
• I'd like to congratulate the Chargers secondary on a fantastic season, assuming season means first 15 games. Not sure what happened in Week 16, but the Chargers looked like the Chuggies (I dunno, sounds funny) against the Bengals on Sunday. I've never been a Jerome Simpson fan, but holy moly did he look like a superstar. Also, last week's game is all the proof you need that Carson Palmer's arm is FINE.
• Did Peyton Manning's 27-yard run-turned-slide hurt your Fantasy teams? If you lost by six or less and Manning was your starting quarterback it did. Manning pulled a Maurice Jones-Drew/Brian Westbrook and effectively took a knee at the Raiders 1 late in the game Sunday, costing the Colts another six points and costing Fantasy owners the same.
A lot of people think that the points should count since the player clearly would have scored in every instance of taking a knee to kill the clock and end the game. Maybe such a setting should exist for commissioners to consider in CBSSports.com leagues?
• It would only be icing on the Panthers' 2010 cake if Andrew Luck decided to stay in school.
• Peyton Hillis, meet The Wall. The Wall, meet Peyton Hillis. Well, you two sure have lots to discuss, so I'm going to move on to another point now ...
• Rex Grossman is who I thought he was. Can't believe he was that good against Dallas, can't believe he was that bad against the Jaguars.
• No one is more guilty of having a preseason man-crush on Dexter McCluster than I am, but just imagine how ludicrous the Chiefs offense would be if he had a bigger role?
• LOL Chad Henne.
• Can't believe the Vikings knocked off the Eagles. Can believe that Joe Webb has a future in this league and certainly in Fantasy Football.
• The Rams are winning the NFC West. Book it.
• I know Bill Cowher is happy as a clam working for CBS and he's not interested in talking about coaching jobs. But let's just say that if I were 49ers President Jed York, I'd call him up Monday morning and ask him how many zeroes he likes after a one on his checks. That team is a quarterback, an offseason of rehab and a coaching staff away from being very, very good. Cowher would be a perfect fit there as a culture-changer, a ticket-and-suite seller and as a full-authority coach.
• Where has this been all year, Jacoby Jones and Owen Daniels? You seriously couldn't pull out some big games before this late point in the season? I bet Coach Kubiak is wondering the same thing.
• I don't have to announce a Super Bowl XLVI prediction for another 200 days or so, but Tampa Bay's in the mix.

Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL)
From iPods to iPhones to MacBooks, Apple uses its "think different" approach to reframe computing, communication, and more.
This stock should bounce back up for the following reasons.1) Historical company- It has lasted over the decades and survived conflict with various competitors (esp. Microsoft).2) Low price. The low price of Apple means that there is a greater chance of the price going up rather than down.3) History of thinking creatively. It tends to find ways to get back in the game.

Article: Touchscreen technologies in phones
Touchscreen phones are becoming a part of our lives more and more each day. This is due to the fact that the touchscreen control method allows a device to be navigated much more easily, quickly and intuitively, since you can activate given applications by touch, rather than having to press a button multiple times (e.g. the D-pad). There are a few different types of technology that can be used to achieve this control method, each of them having its pros and cons.
A little pre-history of the different types of technical methods, used in touchscreens:
Images courtesy of elotouch.com
The beginning:
Dr. Samuel Hurst. In 1971, while he was working as an instructor at the University of Kentucky Research Foundation, he had to read a great volume of information during the graduation exams and it took whole two months so that two students could graduate. In an effort to save some time he invented the first touch sensor that he called "Еlograph" (electronic graphics), which allowed him to enter data faster. Alongside with this invention the company "Elographics" was born (known today as Elo TouchSystems). This device was not transparent as today's sensors are, but this achievement was a big move towards the modern touchscreen. Three years later, in 1974, Dr. Hurst designed the first transparent touchscreen, and in 1977 Elographics invented and patented the 5-wire resistive technical method, which is still the most widely used one today.

I'm sure i read this at the resistive touchscreen: "Unfortunately, this method cannot report more than one touch at a time" Am I right? If yes, than the writer is too uninformed. Resistive touchscreen can report more than one touch at a time. I you don't beleive, visithttp://www.simasystems.com/ind

The Neonode zForce Technology which is opitacal/infrared touch screen based can do Multitouch, has no issues in working direct sunlight, which would be the brightest of ambient lights, and also when comparing to Capacitive and Resistive touch-screens on a same production volume, the zForce Technology is actually the CHEAPEST!!!

Along with two restaurants--Japanese and French--it offers a terrace with a spectacular view over the city as well as the lively Whiskey Blue night club. Chief Concierge Sandra Riveros offers her tips for making the most out of a trip to Santiago.
What restaurant would you recommend for a professional lunch or dinner?
Our First recommendation, of course, is the hotel's own restaurants but, other than that, we mostly recommend restaurants on Avenida Nueva Costanera and, particularly, Tierra Noble. If guests want to be able to talk quietly, we call the manager there and they provide a very good service in that respect. Others we recommend on Nueva Costanera are Ox for meat and Puerto Fuy. I know there are a lot of restaurants on our street, Isidora Goyenechea, but they get very busy, especially at lunchtime, and we explain that to guests.
I have 24 hours in Santiago. What itinerary would you recommend?
We offer guests a city tour with a private driver, but quite often they want to explore on their own. In that case, we suggest they use the subway--which is very safe--and get off at the Pedro de Valdivia Pedro de Valdivia (c. 1500 - January 1, 1554) was a conquistador and first royal governor of Chile. He was the founder of various cities within the territory, including Santiago, Concepción, and Valdivia. station to visit the Providencia district Providencia is a district of the province of Luya. Providence is located in a warm zone in a part that lowers from the heights up to the river cashew. Providence offers several attractive places for tourists like beautiful cataracts and several ruins of the culture chachapoya. and then get back on and go to the Baquedano station to visit the Bellavista area and walk through the park by the river into the downtown area and La Moneda presidential palace and, perhaps, the Central Market.
Can you suggest one or two places to shop?
If guests want to buy Chilean craftwork craft·work
Work made or done by craftspeople.
craftworker n. , we suggest the Pueblito de los Dominicos which isn't far from here and has shops selling a wide range of typical products. The other option is Avenida Alonso de Cordova Cordova, Spain: see Córdoba. which is where the main international brands have their shops.
What are the must-buys?
Chilean wine--many guests come with the idea of getting to know Chilean wine and buying some--and, perhaps, lapis lazuli.
What safety measures safety measures,
n.pl actions (e.g., use of glasses, face masks) taken to protect patients and office personnel from such known hazards as particles and aerosols from high-speed rotary instruments, mercury vapor, radiation exposure, anesthetic and do you recommend?
We suggest that women don't wear too much jewelry. It's not that we tell them that Santiago is a place where they're going to get mugged but just to be careful with jewelry and not be too conspicuous. It's embarrassing as a Chilean but I have to say we also warn guests about the risk of being overcharged by taxis they flag down in the street.
I have many meetings in the city. What is the best way to get around?
Use a hotel car and driver; that's what the vast majority of our guests do.
What is the appropriate amount to tip a taxi or other driver and in restaurants?
It's not usual to tip taxis you take in the street but, for a driver who's taken you on an excursion, around 10 percent is normal and the same in a restaurant.
