We have already seen the leaked pics of T-Mobile's upcoming smartphones. Today, the wireless carrier finally announced two new smartphones, the myTouch and myTouch Q. The 2011 variant of these handsets were manufactured by LG. However, the new 2012 variant is made by none other than popular Chinese smartphone manufacturer Huawei. These specs of both the handsets are almost similar, except slide-out QWERTY keyboard attached to the myTouch Q smartphone. Google has already unveiled the latest Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) OS. Sadly, myTouch and myTouch Q will be shipped with the out-dated version of Android OS. Yes, we are talking about the Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) Operating System.
Brad Duea, senior vice president of product management, T-Mobile USA, said:
"T-Mobile is committed to delivering a strong and diverse portfolio of 4G handsets that runs on our fast and dependable 4G network, including smartphones that enable people to get amazing 4G experiences at a great value. The value and ease of use that the myTouch devices deliver, paired with our worry-free rate plans, means it is easier than ever for customers to get everything they want in a smartphone without the expense for features they won't use."
T-Mobile myTouch features a 4 inch WVGA touchscreen display with Swype virtual keyboard, 800 x 480 pixels resolution, 1.4 GHz single-core processor, Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) OS, 5 megapixel camera with auto-focus and LED flash, Wi-Fi 801.11 b/g/n, 4G Connectivity, 3.5 mm headset jack and much more. This handset will be available in black and dark red colors.
T-Mobile myTouch Q comes with a 4 inch touchscreen display, sporting a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels, Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) OS, slide-out QWERTY keyboard, 1.4 GHz single-core processor, 5 megapixel auto-focus camera, VGA front-facing camera for video chat, Google Play Store, 4G Connectivity and so on. This device will be available in black and white colors.
The T-Mobile mYTouch and myTouch Q comes with the new Genius button 4.0, which allows the users to access the new Genius web search, featuring new voice-command capabilities such as direct search among multiple sources, direct app launch and the ability to make dinner reservations. These handsets will go on sale from August 8 in the US. T-Mobile my Touch and myTouch Q can be purchased for just $49.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate and a two-year service agreement.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — "The Young and the Restless" took a break from love, deception and backstabbing to celebrate the soap's 41st anniversary on Tuesday.
Led by longtime stars Eric Braeden, Melody Thomas Scott and Peter Bergman, the cast and crew gathered to celebrate a day early. The CBS show has been daytime's top-rated soap since December 1988 and was recently renewed through 2017.
"We've been very fortunate that we're still number one and our ratings are even higher than they have been," Scott said.
A chocolate cake in the shape of the number 1 and covered in white icing with a red "YR" logo was cut on the set at Television City in Hollywood.
"It's a giant chunk of television history," said Bergman, who plays scheming Jack Abbott. "There aren't many 41-year-old shows out there."
No one from the show's debut on March 26, 1973 — when it was just 30 minutes long — remains with the show. Jeanne Cooper, who arrived six months later to play grand dame Katherine Chancellor, died in May at age 84. But she is remembered fondly by her former co-stars.
"She's up there orchestrating things for sure," Scott said.
Braeden is in his 34th year playing ruthless tycoon Victor Newman, who is re-married yet again to Scott's character, Nikki Newman.
"Crazy as it is, we love each other," Scott said of their on-screen coupling. "We're not anywhere near the end of the road on that."
Joining the celebration was Lee Phillip Bell, who co-created the show with her late husband, Bill. Their daughter, Lauralee Bell, plays Christine, a role she has returned to at various times over the years.
At 84, Bell still comes to the studio a few hours daily to answer fan mail and take phone calls, but other than her daughter, no one from the Bell family works on the show anymore.
"She usually only points out the things that she's not happy with and says, 'Maybe your father wouldn't have done that,' " Lauralee Bell said of her mother. "It's kind of fun every once in a while when she says, 'Oh, they're in bed again.' "
"Y & R" airs its 10,376th episode on Wednesday. Lauralee Bell attributes the show's enduring success to its familiar characters who viewers have embraced over the years.
"There's still so many people they can count on every day when their lives are crazy," she said of the audience. "'It's like their other family. They don't abandon you."

The SFJazz Center is generating plenty of buzz: The $64 million venue, filled with bells and whistles, is a new type of hybrid setting for jazz that merges club and concert hall. That's the intention. We'll see how it all works out when the hall opens: Monday is a day of free public tours. On Wednesday, Bill Cosby hosts a sold-out, star-studded opening concert.
San Francisco-based Mark Cavagnero, the hall's architect, admits to some nervousness as the opening events approach. How will the public respond? I spoke with Cavagnero, a jazz fan, about the hall, its history and his hopes for it.
Q When you enter a project like this, what's your basic goal?
A You hope to create a space that really flatters and enhances the organization, that gives it a newfound identity. The building becomes the icon for the organization. Think about a museum or a gallery and how that reflects an organization's spirit. That's what we're hoping for.
Q I suppose you're hoping it pulls in a new audience — grows the jazz audience?
A Yes, the leadership is worried that the current audience, in its 20s and 30s, isn't going out to hear live music as much and is not as enamored by the art form — they're so into Facebook and social media. So there's the need for SFJazz to reach out to a younger audience. And this project is part of that: enhancing and pushing the art form forward at a time when it is challenged by the new media — not unlike when jazz was challenged in the '60s by rock.
Q How did Randall Kline, SFJazz's founder, push you to take on that challenge?
A Randall challenged me in a lot of ways. He loves these tight little music clubs in Manhattan and Brooklyn, so we went back there to tour them. And we also went to the Allen Room at Jazz at Lincoln Center, and we went to Zankel Hall at Carnegie Hall — all these upscale performance halls with great acoustics and production values. And then we went to look at these really scratchy clubs, where Randall loved the energy and the vibe: Barbes, the Village Vanguard. And he said, "I want both. I want the intimacy and the energy of a club, and I want the production values and the comfort and the lobby of a hall."
Q How does the design carry that out?
A We were trying to get the performers out into the audience and everyone engaged. So the seating is about as steeply raked as you can comfortably make it, and you have these much shorter sight lines than usual. You really are looking across the stage — a modified thrust stage — and seeing people who are swaying and moving to the music on the other side. It's like sitting in a little amphitheater. It's not like anything I've ever worked on. We built our own model from the ground up. And as Randall would talk about it, I would get really excited: How can we give form to what this guy wants?
Q He's very taken with the fact that you have glass walls on three sides of the building. People on the street can look inside, watch rehearsals, even see the stage.
A The idea was that if you make it sexy, open, transparent — if you get rid of that threshold — then a 25-year-old walking down the street has absolutely no hesitation to come in, walk through, have a cup of coffee in the cafe and maybe even see a jazz concert for the first time.
Randall and I would have coffee and breakfast regularly to talk about these things. And I've told Randall that's something I'm going to miss — having our coffee and theorizing about what the next level of development … is going to be.
Q Now that the opening is finally about to happen, how nervous are you feeling?
A I'm very nervous. I'm like this at the end of all my projects. This thing has been in my head now for at least five years, and in my head it's all making sense. That said, at this point I have no objectivity about whether anyone else will like it or find it appealing or love it or hate it. I have no idea! It's nerve-wracking.
Q Are you a jazz fan? If so, who are your favorites?
A Yes. I still go back to John Coltrane. He was the person who got me into it. Just this morning I was listening to "A Love Supreme" for the thousandth time. I'm also into Miles, Mingus, Monk. Freddie Hubbard. Lee Morgan. I like the new players, too, but those are my guys.

Fort Campbell, KY – An early morning flight into Campbell Army airfield on Fort Campbell, Kentucky brought 186 soldiers home to the families in time for the Christmas holidays. The flight included 151 Strike Advisory Team soldiers, and 35 soldiers from the 716th Military Police Battalion.
The soldiers were returning from a nine-month deployment to Regional Command East in Afghanistan, where they continued the process of readying the Afghan National Security Forces for the 2014 withdrawal of American troops from Afghanistan.
The flight arrived 24 hours after it was originally expected as a result of inclement weather in Shannon in County Clare, Ireland.

I'm trying to make a maze...wait let me rephrase that, I am making a maze game. You start off not knowing not any of the map, but as you move farther into the maze you see more of the map (all discovered squares never go away). Right now my game could be finished after a few hours of work (just a matter of typing in some code), but it would contain a rather poor interface for this type of game. Instead of being able to use the arrow keys when moving through the maze you have to enter U/u (up), D/d (down), L/l (left), and R/r (right). I would rather make it so the player could just use the arrow keys to move through the maze...this would make the game a lot more fun. Could anyone tell me how I could do this? I'm not sure how the program can detect the key movement, then load the graphics (a console app so they are only * o X ) for the squares that should be made visible. Here is an example of what I currently have:
if(d_maze[2][0] == '*' && var_1 == 1)
cout << "Would you like to move up, down, or right?\n";
cin >> move;
if(move == 'U' || move == 'u')
d_maze[2][0] = 'o';
d_maze[1][0] = '*';
d_maze[0][0] = 'o';
d_maze[2][1] = 'o';
var_1 = 0;
if(move == 'D' || move == 'd')
d_maze[2][0] = 'o';
d_maze[3][0] = '*';
d_maze[4][0] = 'o';
d_maze[4][1] = 'X';
d_maze[2][1] = 'o';
d_maze[3][1] = 'X';
var_1 = 0;
if(move == 'R' || move == 'r')
d_maze[2][0] = 'o';
d_maze[2][1] = '*';
d_maze[1][0] = 'o';
d_maze[3][0] = 'o';
d_maze[3][1] = 'X';
d_maze[3][2] = 'X';
d_maze[1][1] = 'X';
d_maze[1][2] = 'X';
d_maze[2][2] = 'o';
var_1 = 0;
}while(var_1 == 1);
Here is a basic breakdown of how the program works:
show maze
ask for user move
input user move (graphics)
...repeat process until game end
Also, another thing I would like to do with the program is have a timer. This would a certain challenge to the game by discouraging slow decisions by the user. I want the timer to continue to run in until either time = 0 or until game end. I'm sure there is a way to do this, but I just don't know the basic syntax of it all.
Hopefully somebody can help me on this, because I would like to be able to improve the gameplay/interface of my maze game. If not I guess I'll have to do without for the time being.

Rosen hopes to be remembered for resilience
Former Indian is subject of documentary about his success as player, executive
CLEVELAND -- Tough and resilient. That's how Al Rosen would like to be remembered.
Before his unanimous Most Valuable Player Award in 1953 or Executive of the Year Award in '87, "Flip" Rosen was a youngster from Spartanburg, S.C., who withstood his parents' divorce and severe asthma. He won Golden Gloves as a high school boxer and manned an assault boat in the Battle of Okinawa during World War II.
In the Minor Leagues, a manager told him he'd never make a career out of baseball. And as a big leaguer, Rosen ran into anti-Semitism as well. In one game, he walked over to the opposing team's dugout to find out which player had been shouting at him. That player never revealed himself.
It was Rosen's resolve to play through pain and injuries that almost certainly shortened his career, and though it lasted just seven full seasons -- all in Cleveland -- Rosen accomplished so much that the Indians inducted him into the franchise's Hall of Fame. And now, 60 years after his marvelous '53 season, Rosen is the subject of a documentary entitled "Beating the Odds - Making Elmer Yoter Eat His Words: The Al Rosen Story."
The film, supported by the Indians and written and produced by Bill Levy, went on sale in Indians Team Shops on Friday. Its title acknowledges the manager who misjudged Rosen and told the former third baseman, "Son, go home and get a lunch pail, because you're never going to be a ballplayer." But Rosen was just that in 1,044 Major League contests, posting a .285 batting average, 717 RBIs and 192 home runs, while appearing in four All-Star Games.
In '50, Rosen set a rookie record with 37 home runs, which led the American League. Three years later, he paced the AL with 43 homers and 145 RBIs and came within .001 batting average points of the Triple Crown.
"The feeling, of course, at the end of it, there was remorse," said Rosen, who would have been the batting champ with a hit in his last at-bat. "At the beginning, going into the final day, I was elated and excited about the fact that I might have a chance to do that, win the Triple Crown. Unfortunately, it didn't work out that way.
"As I look back on it, I had a great year, and I really have no regrets at all."
In the 1954 All-Star Game, held at Cleveland Stadium, Rosen earned MVP honors by going 3-for-4 with two home runs and five RBIs. Rosen also reached the 100-RBI mark in five straight seasons, from '50-54.
Rosen participated in two World Series with the Indians, who beat the Boston Braves in '48 and lost to the New York Giants in '54. Though the latter Fall Classic is discussed more in the documentary, Rosen is quick to point out that the '48 Series had a better ending, although he played a minor role in the victory.
"I was just an add-on for the '48 game. I had nothing to do with their winning," said Rosen, who went 0-for-1 in Game 5. "My only claim to fame in that game is that [former manager Lou] Boudreau used three pinch-hitters, and I was the only one who didn't strike out. I say, 'That was my great accomplishment in that Series.'"
Rosen remembers how special that championship was for Cleveland, a city that's continued to carry great meaning for him through the years. It's where he watched his sons come into the world and where he himself became an adult. It's a place where he might very well have preferred to live all of his life. For Rosen, to see the ever-supportive fans get the opportunity to celebrate a championship was rewarding.
"I remember getting off the train early in the morning and [seeing] the lines of people all up and down Euclid Avenue," Rosen said. "It was just amazing. I rode in a convertible with the top down, sitting on the back. All those people along [the street], I'd never seen anything like that. I was a small-town boy, grew up in a small-town way. I didn't realize there were that many people in the world, and they were all out there. It was cold, but they were cheering their heroes. I was so thrilled to be a part of it. It's always been a part of my fondest memories."
After playing his last game in '56, Rosen spent time as a stockbroker before returning to baseball about two decades later. He served as president or general manager for three Major League clubs: the Yankees ('78-79), Astros ('80-85) and Giants ('85-92). It was in San Francisco where Rosen became the first and only person to ever win Executive of the Year honors after being named MVP. Under Rosen, the Giants, who finished in last place in 1985, made it to the National League Championship Series in '87 and the World Series in '89.
Rosen served as an inspiration to many people, one of whom is Indians president Mark Shapiro, "because [Rosen] achieved elite levels of success as a player and then as a front-office executive."
"And, of course," Shapiro said in the documentary, "I was raised in a Jewish household, so for this guy to have achieved those things, and also with his Jewish heritage, [it was] something that was unique and probably special to me as well."
Today, the 89-year-old Rosen still keeps up with baseball, pondering how he might try to fix this team or that. Living in Rancho Mirage, Calif., Rosen plays bridge nearly every afternoon with his wife, Rita. Arthritis in his hands makes golfing difficult, although he's confident that he has plenty of rounds ahead of him. And he continues to work out three times per week.
"We do what old folks do," Rosen said. "We go out to dinner. I'm not quite into the early-bird special yet, but I'm close."
So many years later, Rosen never forgot about Yoter. If their paths had ever crossed again, Rosen wouldn't have greeted him with anger. More than anything, he is grateful.
"I'd walk up and say, 'Thank you. Thank you for putting a little steel in my back,'" Rosen said. "If somebody tells you you can't do something, the best thing you can do is go out and prove him wrong."
