Open Source ECM Vendor Nuxeo Gains Record Number of New Customers and Partners
BOSTON, March 16, 2010 -- Nuxeo, the Open Source Enterprise Content Management (ECM) company, today announced that it has seen significant growth in the ECM marketplace – particularly in North America. In 2009, Nuxeo more than doubled its revenue, launched several new products and features developed in conjunction with the open source community and won several industry accolades. The open source document management company also now has expanded to 50+ employees in Paris and Boston and more than 50 partners worldwide.
"Our experience over the past 12 + months in North America is that there is a large segment of the market that want the breadth and depth of larger content management systems from first generation ECM vendors such as EMC, IBM, Open Text and Oracle – but today they require more modern, extensible architectures and lower overall costs," said Eric Barroca, CEO of Nuxeo. "Our appeal is a feature rich ECM platform and packaged applications that address the architectural and functional needs of large enterprises, but are also easily deployable in a wide range of environments and extended and developed by customers themselves."
2009 highlights include:
- Major Growth of Subscriber Base – Nuxeo has tripled their customer base in 2009, boosted by a move to the North American market and the improvement of its Nuxeo Connect, the company's flagship subscription offering delivering software maintenance & support to its customers. New global customers in 2009 include Orange, one of the world's leading telecommunications and network services companies; Jeppesen, a division of Boeing; EllisDon, one of the largest building contractors in Canada; Serimax, an international full service welding company; Cengage Learning, which makes customized learning solutions for universities, instructors, students, libraries, government agencies, corporations, and professionals; Frequentis, which supports state and local governments with emergency response/command and control applications; and Vilogia, a France-based privately held property management company.
- Revenue Growth: In line with its growing subscriber base, Nuxeo has seen a 285% growth in 2009 revenue compared to close of 2008. This validates the company's strategy to deliver an open source ECM platform as a foundation for content applications. This growth also demonstrates a successful expansion into the North American market and ability to compete with and beat proprietary and open source ECM vendors alike. With demand for Nuxeo Connect subscriptions on the rise, the Nuxeo revenue mix has shifted to more packaged support and maintenance deals. At close of 2009, Nuxeo's revenue is largely driven by its subscription offering.
- Galaxy Partner Program launched – 50 partners -- integrators and application providers -- have signed up for the Nuxeo Galaxy Partner program since its launch in July 2009. The Nuxeo Galaxy Program gives business and field experts the ability to package their knowledge and offer both horizontal and vertical applications, designed to meet specific content management challenges. Galaxy partners deliver their domain expertise and solutions to their customers as well as to the broader, ever growing Nuxeo community.
- Significant community contributions – Nuxeo was able to expand its product in a number of meaningful ways including through contributions from its open source community. For example, Nuxeo added support for OpenSocial through the contributions of one of its larger customers Leroy Merlin with the Nuxeo DM 5.3 release in October 2009.
- Gained industry accolades – Nuxeo continues to be recognized by leading publications and win awards. It recently won TechWeb's Intelligent Enterprise Editors' Choice award that recognizes the most influential technology companies impacting enterprises today. It was also listed as one of "10 open source projects worth checking out" by TechRepublic.
- Now has more than 50 employees, up from 38 in 2008 – Nuxeo continued to grow the number of employees both in Paris, as well as the new office in Boston. Among the high-profile hires was appointing David Cloyd, General Manager of the Americas and Cheryl McKinnon as its first Chief Marketing Officer. McKinnon brought more than fifteen years experience in the ECM space, most recently with Open Text.
- Leadership role with Apache Chemistry incubator project & CMIS - Nuxeo spearheaded the creation of the vendor-neutral Apache Chemistry incubator project, which is developing a generic, open source Java reference implementation of the Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) standard. Nuxeo also participates on the OASIS CMIS technical committee, which is working on creating a standard web services infrastructure to allow enterprises to more easily share information with multiple ECM systems as well as between ERP and CRM systems.
2010 is also off to a record start with the releases of Nuxeo DAM and Nuxeo Studio. The Nuxeo Digital Asset Management offering, Nuxeo DAM, helps organizations catalogue, process, store, retrieve, and distribute rich media content, including images, audio, and video. Nuxeo Studio is the configuration and customization environment for Nuxeo EP, Nuxeo DM and Nuxeo DAM. Nuxeo Studio is available to subscription customers to help them accelerate application building with a simple web-hosted design tool. Nuxeo DAM is driving new deals early in 2010, with the first closed contract achieved within 30 days of product launch.

Hiking and hacking on Crete
Wireless Sirtaki, synchronized penguin swimming, bottle cap diving in the pool – only a few disciplines that were part of the annual Linux Beer Hike, aka "Linux Bier Wanderung."
From the 2nd to 9th of September, about 40 geeks from all over the world met up in Hersonissos, Crete, Greece. The area is a very popular tourist destination and at first it seemed a bit difficult to find other attendees in the crowded little town, but after the "pub of the day" was announced on the mailing list everyone spent a good first evening together. The temperatures made it a little challenging to muster up the energy to go on hikes, and so it was no surprise that the "Welcome Hike" ended with several geeks splashing and paddling in the Mediterranean Sea. During the week though, people got used to the weather so that several excursions to Knossos, the Skinakas observatory, and the Samaria Gorge could take place.

Dr. David Hilbert, Chief Scientific Officer at Zyngenia, commented, "Our study defines a novel class of therapeutics that simultaneously disrupts multiple intracellular signaling pathways and, importantly, more effectively inhibits tumor cell proliferation. As compared with the parent antibodies, they showed superior efficacy in preclinical models of tumor growth."
"These promising findings follow another recent publication from our scientific team, which demonstrated that a bi-specific antibody created with our technology displays enhanced efficacy in an in vivo model of arthritis by concomitantly targeting TNF and Ang2," said Peter Kiener, D. Phil., President and Chief Executive Officer of Zyngenia. "Together these publications provide further validation for targeting complex diseases with a single 'Zybody' therapeutic. The ability to assemble multi-specific antibodies with robust stability, using conventional production methods, will enable the design of novel therapeutics that better address the complexity of human disease."
About Zyngenia, Inc.
Zyngenia is focused on developing a new class of biotherapeutics that address the complexity of diseases by simultaneously targeting multiple biological pathways. These single-molecule drugs synergistically address multifactorial diseases such as cancer, inflammation and autoimmune disorders. The company is creating its own pipeline of multi-specific proteins to treat cancer and forming partnerships to leverage the power of its technology throughout industry. www.zyngenia.com

The 3 Tenors of Soul
The 3 Tenors of Soul
A one-group revival of the famed Philadelphia soul sound of the 1970s, the 3 Tenors of Soul feature the lead singers of three vocal groups from that golden era, Russell Thompkins, Jr. of the Stylistics, Ted "Wizard" Mills of Blue Magic, and William "Poogie" Hart of the Delfonics, any of whom are capable of soaring into a beautiful falsetto at the drop of a note. The three began doing shows together in the Philadelphia region as the Majestics, changing their name just before they began work on the group's debut album, which was released in 2007 by Shanachie Records as All the Way from Philadelphia. The album, which allows all three singers to take center stage on a selection of classic songs from the 1970s and 1980s, was produced by guitarist Bobby Eli at Studio E and featured some of Philadelphia's best soul players along with guest spots from Bilal, Hall & Oates, and the Average White Band. ~ Steve Leggett, Rovi

Third in a series
GOP presidential hopeful Jon Huntsman says he's the most qualified Republican in the White House race, thanks to his background as governor of Utah, a corporate executive, and as U.S. Ambassador to China. But if Huntsman had lived out his youthful ambition, he would have been none of those things.
"My initial passion in life was to be a rock-and-roll musician," Huntsman told graduates at the University of South Carolina in May.

In the late 1970s, recently out of Harvard Business School, Mitt Romney went to work for the Boston consulting firm Bain & Co. He was successful, but he says his dream was always to run his own business.
In 1984, he got the chance.
The firm's founder asked Romney to start an investment fund called Bain Capital. The company would put money into small or struggling businesses, help them grow, and then Bain would cash out.

Meditations (Penguin Classics)by Marcus Aurelius
Staff Pick Consigned to notebooks by one of Rome's last great emperors, Meditations contains the blood and fire of Stoic philosophy. It has been a favorite for many ages and graced the bedside of kings and laity alike. Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:A series of spiritual exercises filled with wisdom, practical guidance, and profound understanding of human behavior, Marcus Aurelius's "Meditations remains one of the greatest works of spiritual and ethical reflection ever written. Marcus's insights and advice--on everything from living in the world to coping with adversity and interacting with others--have made the "Meditations required reading for statesmen and philosophers alike, while generations of ordinary readers have responded to the straightforward intimacy of his style. <BR>In Gregory Hays's new translation--the first in a generation--Marcus's thoughts speak with a new immediacy: never before have they been so directly and powerfully presented. <P>"From the Trade Paperback edition.
Synopsis:A new translation of the philosophical journey that has inspired luminaries from Matthew Arnold to Bill Clinton Written by an intellectual Roman emperor, the Meditations offer a wide range of spiritual reflections developed as the leader struggled to understand himself and the universe. Marcus Aurelius covers topics as diverse as the question of virtue, human rationality, the nature of the gods, and his own emotions, spanning from doubt and despair to conviction and exaltation. * Includes an introduction, chronology, explanatory notes, general index, index of quotations, and index of names About the AuthorMarcus Aelius Aurelius Antoninus (121-180) became joint emperor in 161 with adoptive brother Lucius Verus, and ruled alone from 169.

In just over a year in the NBA, Derrick Williams has gone from being the No. 2 overall pick to trade bait.
But the Minnesota Timberwolves forward says he is taking the rumors in stride. Williams practiced in Minneapolis on Friday in preparation to play with the Wolves' summer league team in Las Vegas next week.
His name was mentioned in possible deals while the Wolves were pursuing Lakers forward Pau Gasol. Now that the Wolves have turned their attention to Portland's Nicolas Batum, Williams has been taken off the table.
He has shed 15 pounds this summer in hopes of becoming quick enough to play small forward. He says ''if I had played a little bit better, I wouldn't be in those talks.''
Meanwhile, the Wolves have traded center Brad Miller and two second-round picks to New Orleans and waived swingman Martell Webster as they prepare to file a formal offer to Portland restricted free agent Nicolas Batum.
The Wolves made the moves on Friday, one day after using the amnesty clause on center Darko Milicic. The Wolves received a conditional second-round pick from the Hornets for Miller, who has said he will retire.
Timberwolves president David Kahn said the Wolves will submit the offer sheet, which is for four years and more than $45 million, to the league on Sunday night when Webster clears waivers. The Blazers will have three days to match and Portland GM Neil Olshey has been adamant that they will do just that

Glowing wall sconces bring out the light mint hue of the dining room's walls––a nod to the restaurant's name, Midori, which means green in Japanese. While skilled chefs wrap spicy tuna and tobiko in fresh seaweed and rice, decorative boat platters of salmon and yellowtail sashimi sail across the sprawling sushi bar to waiting patrons. Though the Japanese restaurant specializes in seafood and handcrafted rolls, it's only a part of the kitchen's wheelhouse, which produces stir-fried yakisoba noodles and chicken drenched in rich teriyaki. Diners may also honor Midori's name with a few scoops of green-tea ice cream, which gives an extra kick to the evening more easily than a third leg.
Taking traditional culinary techniques and squeezing them through a filter of modern influences, Nagoya Steak and Sushi refines its menu of familiar Japanese cuisine. Manning tabletop hibachi grills, chefs entertain their hungry audiences by juggling utensils and causing the grills' surfaces to spout flames while they sear orders of chicken, steak, and lobster. Back in the kitchen, another team of chefs sets about topping crispy fillets of red snapper with lime-chili sauce and glazing tuna steaks with teriyaki-balsamic blends.
Striving to create more delicate–yet equally enticing–dishes, sushi chefs fill plates with meticulously sliced sashimi and carefully folded rolls. While the maki selection features a number of traditional sushi-house staples, it also includes the restaurant's own custom-designed creations. Featuring such premium ingredients as lobster tempura, filet mignon, and individually steamed rice grains, these signature rolls offer a fancy dining experience akin to picnicking atop a blimp.
Kenobi provides a diverse menu of authentic Japanese cuisine in a beautiful dining environment. Myriad "tasting" portions of succulent dishes such as lobster gyoza dumplings ($8), made with lobster, shrimp, goat cheese, and unagi sauce, deliciously preface the entree chapters. Offerings such as the miso Chilean sea bass ($23) keep the edible pages turning. Artful creations such as the rib eye ($22) topped with grilled yakitori sauce, and served with wasabi mashed potatoes and spicy broccilini increase the anticipatory hunger thrill. Sushi dishes include combinations ($11–$17) or house specialty rolls such as the brandy ($9), made with shrimp tempura, smoked salmon, avocado, cream cheese, tempura crisp, unagi sauce, and toasted sesame. The Kobe beef ($13) is self-seared on a tableside hibachi, harkening back to the days when all food was prepared next to the dinner table and pillows were stuffed and sewn each night at the bedside.
Diners watch, transfixed, as a chef deftly chops, flips, and sears their meal in front of them while flames leap from the grill. This is Shogun Grill, where customers are often just a seat away from the culinary action.
The griddle-cooked teppenyaki dishes aren't just for show, either. Packed with fresh chicken, steak, and vegetables, the entrees sate taste buds whose idea of a Japanese meal is more than just tipping a few soy-sauce packets into your mouth. The chefs also whip up fresh sushi starring salmon, eel, soft-shell crab, and smelt eggs.

A bevy of genes known to be active during human fetal and infant development first appeared at the same time that the prefrontal cortex—the area of the brain associated with human intelligence and personality—took shape in primates.
The largest virus to be sequenced prompts researchers to consider whether giant viruses were once full-fledged living organisms.

The General, a new restaurant on the Lower East Side Manhattan serving small-plate cuisine inspired by the foods of modern Asia. Zagat editor Kelly Dobkin filed the following report.
Located in the former Crash Mansion space on Bowery and Spring, The General is the newest eatery from EMM Group attached to nightclubs Finale and Bow.
"We're situated between the Lower East Side and Chinatown, which is almost the perfect location for an Asian-style restaurant," says Huynh.
Huynh, who is also the executive chef at Catch in both New York and Miami, designed The General's small plates-driven menu, which is modern Asian.
"The menu is modern Asian influence. I took a little bit of inspiration from Japan, China, Thailand, Vietnam and kind of made it into my interpretation as what I'd like to see each dish as," Huynh says. "My favorite dishes are definitely the crispy beef, the miso-bourbon sea bass and the Cinderella rice. Baked sea bass, I love it because the fish is flaky and tender. It's made with bourbon and real maple and miso, all roasted up until it's lightly caramelized. I love it."
The sprawling space features wrought-iron red chairs, black lacquered table tops and exposed subway tile columns and is broken up into three sections.
"Up front we have the cafe area, in which we'll take walk-ins, and then there's a pastry bar there also. Then in the middle part, there's a huge bar where you can get a drink and a bite, and then there's a main dining room which is huge," Huynh says. "At EMM group we're known for these stands in the middle of the table which is kind of like a small lazy susan. Our style is mostly shared plates. We created these little stands so we can save room and have multiple plates at the table and not have it so crowded. So it's a great way to share food."

Connecticut cities to get federal help with curbing gun violence
NEW HAVEN — The nation's top prosecutor and other officials announced a new effort Tuesday to reduce gun violence in Connecticut's major cities by directly engaging violent groups with warnings and offers of assistance to change.
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and David Fein, the top federal prosecutor in Connecticut, said Project Longevity has begun in New Haven and will be expanded to Bridgeport and Hartford. Eventually it may be implemented statewide, a first for the program, officials said.

Many people say that Floyd is better today than he was years ago but honestly I must say that the younger, faster Floyd got hit far less than he does today and I know that makes for a more action-packed/competitive bout because he's taking more risks standing in the pocket and trading but he never got hit as much when he was using his legs more.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kK9en6g9JTQ <<<His Defensive abilities http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kK9en6g9JTQ <<<His Offensive abilities Though the uneducated casual observer (those who do not know the difference between Boxing and Brawling) would say he was a Runner, I still favored his earlier style using his legs to box and not get hit than I do the more Crowd Pleasing Style today. So, is he better today or then? Or did he lose a step or two?? Your thoughts??? |

The reason he might have looked feather fisted in the baldomir fight was because he was complete focused on moving not punching but I think the broken hand might have played a factor in it too lol

BeaValdes for CoutureLab Gray Gio Evening Bag, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
The BeaValdes for CoutureLab Gray Gio Evening Bag is another stunning and unusual design from BeaValdes, whose futuristic, spaceship-reminiscent shapes have us enthralled.
This bag is a much more slender shape than the precious BeaValdes pieces we've seen, but it packs a stunning art deco punch into its tiny form. We love the overlapping circles of cut beads, the enormous crystal studs, the sparkling bead trim and the grabbable shape. This satin-lined clutch closes with an asymmetrical fold and magnetic closure, and comes with a chain for those of you who prefer to wear your handbags.
The grey and beige tones of the beautiful beadwork make it an easy accessory for a good percentage of any wardrobe. "Neutral, yet dazzling" has never been so quintessentially achieved.
The BeaValdes for CoutureLab Gray Gio Evening Bag is available from CoutureLab for approximately $2,534.00.

Much loved Superior tavern owner dies at 99
Molly Spaun, founder of Molly's Tavern, suffered a series of three heart attacks about a month after what was always a popular event: her birthday party, which falls on Valentine's Day.By: Christa Lawler, Duluth News Tribune
A longtime Superior business owner whose bar was known for its eclectic mix of clientele has died of health complications that started this winter.
Molly Spaun, the former owner of the Tower Avenue mainstay Molly's Tavern, died Wednesday. She was 99.
Spaun suffered a series of three heart attacks about a month after what was always a popular event: her birthday party, which falls on Valentine's Day.
She had been under home hospice care for the past month, according to her son Oscar Muench. Spaun had just transferred to the Solvay Hospice House in Duluth when she died.
"It was just a matter of hours," Muench said. "I promised her she could die at home, but that last day it just got to the point where everybody was exhausted."
Funeral arrangements are pending.
Spaun, one of 11 children, came from a hospitality background. Family lore has her wearing overalls and climbing through tunnels to secure a barrel of whiskey during the Prohibition era, but escaping a year-plus jail sentence after a raid because she was just 16 years old, according to family friend Andrea Blesener.
It's one of many stories about the colorful character.
Spaun's parents Nicholas and Pearl O'Kash owned the Blue Moon Tavern in Superior's North End. She helped with food, waitressing and dishwashing. In 1938 she opened the original Molly's Tavern with her first husband, Oscar Muench.
The bar had a couple more addresses until 1952, when her husband died after a heart attack soon after the birth of their son Oscar. Spaun then moved the tavern to its longtime location at 405 Tower Ave., according to a 1998 article in the Superior Daily Telegram.
Spaun was briefly married to Andy Spaun.
Molly's Tavern
Molly's Tavern had a mix of clientele over the 60-plus years it was open.
It was a gay bar and a biker bar and a place for music fans to listen to Motown hits.
"In the 1950s it was a sailor bar, then in the 1960s kind of became a place where call girls would meet the fellas," Muench said. "In the 1970s I kind of renovated the bar into a nostalgic type setting with old juke boxes and old advertising."
Jerry Frederickson, a local antiques dealer, described the bar as "a step back in time to the '30s."
"It was really eclectic," he said. "Maybe to some it was old and dingy, but for people who collect antiques and things from yesteryear, it was interesting."
It was filled with things like old metal signs, juke boxes with art deco lighting and a crank cash register.
"Everything was old," Frederickson sad. "Including Molly."
Molly's Tavern was, according to longtime close friend Bev Robinson: "The best bar in town. Every walk of life was there. It was the favorite, favorite place to go.
"Teachers, artists, at one point the news channel people, the sailors would be there."
Simply put, Spaun was "pretty famous," her nephew Nick O'Kash said.
"A lot of important people knew her," he said. "Mayors used to go down there and the chief of police. There were a lot of people from the other end of town, too. The prostitutes and the pimps used to go there a lot. That was kind of their hangout.
"Superior, back in the day, that was a rough end of the town. She corralled it though. There was never too much trouble there."
As recently as 2001, Spaun was behind the bar with her son at closing time when two men got in a fight near the door "and then a series of shots were heard, and witnesses sought cover and fled from the bar," according to a News Tribune story quoting then-Capt. Charles LaGesse of the Superior Police Department. Both men were injured and bullets punched holes in the floor, wall and ceiling.
Spaun, then 87, was unharmed despite being pulled to the floor by her son.
O'Kash said customers were drawn by Spaun's outgoing personality.
"She could talk to anybody," he said. "She seemed to really remember everybody. All the seamen would go to Molly's bar. They were from all over the United States and they all loved her. They would tell her their problems and she was a good listener and gave them advice."
The bar went through some rough periods, Muench said.
There was a time when they couldn't afford to replace a light bulb.
"We just barely made it through every month," said Muench.
The bar eventually closed in 2005.
Sayings of Molly Spaun
Robinson worked at Molly's Tavern for a decade before opening Bev's Jook Joint. She remembered Spaun as a sweet person, a good storyteller and a singer who stayed up late every night.
"I loved her very, very, very much," she said.
Blesener, who worked at the tavern, said that if someone offered to buy her a drink, Spaun said she had to accept it.
"She taught me that. Never turn down a drink," Blesener said. "(She'd say) 'Don't take the shingles off the roof.'"
Then there was:
"Put something on the bar besides your elbows," Robinson recalled.
And if Spaun saw a member of the wait staff talking too much to a customer, she would say:
"Get a ring on the finger," Robinson said. "You don't engage with someone unless you get a ring on the finger."
If the tavern was light on activity, she would throw pennies at the door — a way to lure customers.
Even her longevity had superstitious roots.
Spaun managed her longtime struggle with arthritis by keeping a potato in her bra, Robinson said.
"She would soak raisins in gin or rum and have one of those raisins to start her day," Robinson said. "She wore copper bracelets."
Molly's big day
Spaun's birthday was always a big deal. It fell on Valentine's Day, was widely attended and demanded a big cake.
"It was always the queen's day," Blesener said. "It was pretty spectacular."
A fire at Molly's Tavern in 1994 caused a hiccup in Spaun's annual birthday plans.
Spaun's German Shepherd I-Zeke woke her in time to get out of the apartment above the bar.
But it brought an end to a tradition: For 56 years she had been hosting the party at her own establishment.
Spaun was doing pretty well at this year's event. She was struggling with her vision and her hearing, Blesener said, but she was very alert.
"She almost made it (to 100)," she said. "It would have been a big one."

Mitt Romney has just about sewn up the GOP nomination. He doesn't have the delegates yet, but he's leading Rick Santorum in Pennsylvania, a fact sobering enough to inspire even Kool-aid drunk Santorum to "take some time off" from campaigning. What do Republican insiders think of Romney's chances in the fall?
Not much, according to Joe Scarborough:
JOE SCARBOROUGH: Nobody thinks Romney's going to win. Let's just be honest. Can we just say this for everybody at home? Let me just say this for everybody at home. The Republican establishment--I've yet to meet a single person in the Republican establishment that thinks Mitt Romney is going to win the general election this year. They won't say it on TV because they've got to go on TV and they don't want people writing them nasty emails. I obviously don't care. But I have yet to meet anybody in the Republican establishment that worked for George W. Bush, that works in the Republican congress, that worked for Ronald Reagan that thinks Mitt Romney is going to win the general election.

No Proven Treatment For Childhood Traumatic Stress
February 11, 2013
© iStockphoto
What is the best way to address a child's traumatic stress?
The question is no idle academic chin-stroking: two-thirds of all children will experience some kind of traumatic event before their eighteenth birthday, according to some esitmates. Whether it comes as a natural or man-made disaster – accident, war, or school shooting – some traumatizing event will have an impact on more than half of our kids.
While that is in itself surprising news, a new study suggests there is no best course of treatment for our youngest survivors of trauma.
Plus: After Newtown: How Does A Child Cope With Tragedy
The study, sponsored by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, examined existing research on traumatic stress disorders in children – as well as psychological and pharmacological therapies. The authors conclude that only a few psychological treatments were shown to help children -- and even then, only in the short term. No medications were shown to have benefit.
"The body of evidence provides little insight into how interventions to treat children exposed to trauma might influence healthy long-term development," researchers write. The study, "Comparative Effectiveness of Interventions for Children Exposed to Nonrelational Traumatic Events," was published online Monday.
These findings, researchers conclude, serve as a "call to action," demanding "far more research on the comparative effectiveness of interventions" for child survivors of trauma. Sadly, it's research that could clearly come in quite handy.

To our U.S. Soccer fans,
After receiving several complaints about unacceptable behavior towards U.S. fans at the 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup final at the Rose Bowl, we felt it was necessary to address this issue directly with our supporters. While this was not an event run by U.S. Soccer, and therefore U.S. Soccer did not control the logistics of the match, the safety and security of our fans at any match is our top priority. Since we received the initial complaints, we have been in contact with the tournament organizers to discuss the necessary steps that should be taken to improve the experience at future events. We also know the Rose Bowl has reached out to several of the affected fans to discuss the matter.
U.S. Soccer is committed to providing a positive, safe and enjoyable atmosphere at all U.S. national team events that we host. We can assure you that we will continue to take all the necessary steps to address any potential security issues.
This year, U.S. Soccer launched the Respect Campaign, which includes a number of initiatives to enhance the fan experience, particularly in the area of customer service. Through our in-game texting service, fans can anonymously report any concerns or issues and receive immediate feedback and action from dedicated U.S. Soccer and stadium personnel. We invite all of you to learn more about the Respect Campaign at ussoccer.com.
It is important to remember that the overwhelming majority of supporters who attend matches in the United States showcase their love and appreciation for the game in the right way. Having said that, let us be clear: we will not tolerate dangerous or inappropriate behavior from anyone, regardless of the team they support. We must not allow the issues from the Gold Cup to influence future conduct at our events. Our supporters have helped us earn a reputation of being one of the most fan-friendly nations in soccer, and we are committed to maintaining that standard.
Please continue to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have. Thanks again for all of your support. We look forward to hosting you at a U.S. Soccer event soon.
Sunil Gulati
President, United States Soccer Federation
