Some things are fads and some things are merely nascent, and rare is the marketer who can tell the difference when it matters.

4.0 out of 5 stars Tons of great ideas for making the most of foursquare,
The Local Cook (Michigan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Power of foursquare: 7 Innovative Ways to Get Your Customers to Check In Wherever They Are (Hardcover)
What the book covers:
The "seven keys" follow the acronym CHECK IN (groan), and are as follows:
Connect your brand.
Harness new fans.
Engage your followers
Create rewards.
Knock out the competition.
Incentivize your customers.
Never stop entertaining.
Each key gets its own chapter, and provides a TON of ideas for harnessing the power of foursquare that are applicable to nonprofits, brands, brick and mortar stores, and more. Real life examples as well as "why it works" are included in every chapter. Every few pages I found myself wondering "hmm, I wonder how I could . . . " and going back to the foursquare website to figure out how to implement the ideas that were swirling in my head and apply them to my own business.
The book was well written and easy to follow, if a little light in the technical implementation side of things. That is probably better, because it's easy to get bogged down in the details of how the app works and forget the strategy behind it. You could spend hours (one business owner spent six months!) learning how to set up the technical side, but the key thing is to remember your goals. That way you can prioritize, because social media in general, while powerful, CAN become a big time suck if you don't have a plan of action mapped out. In fact, one of the last chapters includes a list of pitfalls to avoid. I think the last item on the list is the most important:
"Avoid 'Doing it just to do it.' Many businesses . . . create social media pages and promotions with no clear objective. They do it just to do it. They are joining out of fear instead of joining because they are passionate about engaging their customers. This apathy shows up in the form of lukewarm specials, poor execution, little or no training, and bad customer service."
If you are already using social media and social location marketing, this book will give you some creative ideas that you probably haven't thought of.
If you are brand new to the whole concept, it will give you an idea of what you are missing. If you have no time to spare, my best advice is to at least claim your business or brand now so that you can see what existing foursquare users are saying about your business, who's checking in, and to make sure that your business' name and contact information is correct. Then carve out some time to figure out how to put this practically free marketing tool to work for you. (I say practically because time is money, after all.)

5.0 out of 5 stars The future of local business - Social Business,
This review is from: The Power of foursquare: 7 Innovative Ways to Get Your Customers to Check In Wherever They Are (Hardcover)
The future of local business
I was hooked by the first chapter. Carmine is a superb writer, not simply creating a book but skilfully immersing the reader in the content and the solutions to your inevitable questions.
This book is not what I expected. I thought it would be an overview of one of the growing social media tools, Foursquare. In fact, this book is a marketers masterclass on how to use location based services for marketing, provision of proven campaigns, marketing tips, local engagement principles and how to get Foursquare to do it all for you!
What is Foursquare? Well Carmine describes it as:
-It's a social, local, and mobile networking tool.
-It's a location-based social network.
-It's a geolocation app.
-It's a game.
-It's a communication tool.
-It's a new social-media marketing platform.
Not only does he then prove each genre, the then provides case study after case study. The brilliant thing about it though is not that he provides case studies but the manner in which he shows you multiple ways to instantly utilise Foursquare for local engagement and business with pre-tested campaigns. Fantastic.
This book has helped our business significantly but even more significant is the immediate results it has had for our clients and their local business.
I thoroughly enjoyed the book and recommend it to the following:
-Business owners
-Social media managers
-Technical professionals
-Tourism providers
-Government agencies
-Risk Manager
-PR agents
-Travel Industry providers

5.0 out of 5 stars A Comprehensive How-To Guide to foursquare,
Steve Amoia (Washington, D.C.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Power of foursquare: 7 Innovative Ways to Get Your Customers to Check In Wherever They Are (Hardcover)
"As a proud Italian I was familiar with Hoboken as the home of one of my boyhood heroes, Frank Sinatra, as well as the legendary Feast of San Gennaro (the patron saint of Naples). But other than its Italian and musical legacy, my surroundings where unfamiliar to me... Before heading to the train station, I opened my foursquare account. With that simple act, my smartphone turned into a personalized tour guide." Page 46, Carmine Gallo.
The innovative nature of foursquare had such a strong impression on Mr. Gallo that he decided to write a book about them.
Organized, Detailed and Well-Researched Format
There are sixteen mostly concise chapters, detailed notes and index sections, along with a bonus interview with the foursquare co-founders, Naveen Selvadurai and Dennis Crowley. The author writes in an enthusiastic, positive and informative style. You continually sense his personal engagement with the topic which makes the book an entertaining read despite its detailed nature.
Innovative Features
Each chapter has "Checking In" blocks to provide actual user examples. Another useful feature, "Unlock The Power" summaries, assist the reader to highlight key concepts. I also liked something that was aesthetic in nature: Page numbers are encircled and appear in the middle of the page.
Enlightening Case Studies and Interviews
One facet of this book that I appreciated was the number of diverse company profiles, along with targeted interviews, compiled by the author. From a matchmaking service in New York City, Agape Match, to Mike's Bikes in Northern California, to the PYT burger joint in Philadelphia, you will see how individuals and companies make personal connections with foursquare. These case studies emphasized the practical advice provided by the author and were some of the most salient features of this book.
Notable Quotes
"Sixty percent of all mobile Internet usage is now spent on social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter." Page 11.
"We started the service in a playful way to make cities easier to explore. Everyone, young and old, can fall in love with it." Naveen Selvadurai on page 30.
"When you talk to these merchants you find out that they care about two things: retention and acquisition. They are asking themselves, how do I get customers to walk in and how do I get customers to return. Foursquare can help you with both." Page 58
"It costs seven times more to acquire a new customer than it does to retain an existing one. And studies have shown that 20 percent of your customers contribute 80 percent to sales." Tristan Walker of foursquare on Page 107.
"Foursquare is growing at a faster rate than Twitter did at similar stages." Page 111
"Competition, especially in the restaurant industry, is fierce. Your customers are easily wooed. Foursquare specials give your customers a reason, and incentive, to enter your establishment instead of another." Page 166
"Sixty-four percent of respondents said that in the past 12 months they had left a store because service was poor." Page 231
"I think merchants appreciate the fact that once you claim your venue and we verify it, you get access to all the stats on who's coming to your place and when." Dennis Crowley on page 244.
"Foursquare gets you off your couch or your computer and encourages you to explore your world. Many other social networks are about being behind your computer screen or TV." Naveen Selvadurai on page 249.
Check In and You Likely Won't Check Out
This is an integral and comprehensive book to understand the ins and outs of a growing mobile social media platform. As in the famous "Hotel California" lyrics by The Eagles, "You can checkout any time you like, But you can never leave!" As the author concisely states on page 111, "So when it comes to checking in, you'll be making a big mistake if you check out without giving it a chance."
Please Note
A McGraw-Hill representative provided me with a complimentary review copy of this book. I was not monetarily compensated for the review by any party that would benefit from a positive analysis.

This review is from: The Power of foursquare: 7 Innovative Ways to Get Your Customers to Check In Wherever They Are (Hardcover)
Some things are fads and some things are merely nascent, and rare is the marketer who can tell the difference when it matters. Who among us did not pitch facebook concepts to advertisers who'd never heard of it, didn't understand it when you explained it to them, and didn't want to be a part of it when they did understand it. And then Aaron Sorkin writes a movie and Mark Zuckerberg tours Wall Street, and suddenly every CMO is screaming that they wanna be liked.
That's why books like Carmine Gallo's "The Power of Foursquare" are appealing - because they provide the kind of down-to-earth explanations and examples that you can hand to your CMO or VP of marketing and say "Look, check out the case studies. Skim the possibilities. Review the month-over-month growth." I'm not saying this book will make him buy your ideas; I'm just saying it could help him stop looking at you like you're speaking a rare Klingon dialect when you pitch them.

4.0 out of 5 stars CHECKIN - an acronym that simplifies,
Jim Estill (New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Power of foursquare: 7 Innovative Ways to Get Your Customers to Check In Wherever They Are (Hardcover)
I liked Gallo's book on Steve Jobs Presentation secrets. I like this one even more. He is a good writer. He simplifies concepts which makes them easy to remember and absorb.
I often try new technologies. Some I stick with and others I drop as "not for me". Foursquare is one I dropped. Perhaps I am not the right demographic. I thought it would not go. So much for predicting the future.
The Power of foursquare explains the success of foursquare - 0 to 10,000,000 users in 2 years.
Gallo creates an acroymn - CHECKIN to explain how companies should connect with with people where they are:
Connect your brand
Harness new fans
Engage your followers
Create rewards
Knock out the competitors
Incentives your customers (seems a bit of repeat of create rewards)
Never stop entertaining
Gallo explains each step with interesting case studies. I particularly liked the case study about a nonprofit that raised $50,000 using a "check-in" campaign.
Good book. Worth the read.
3.0 out of 5 stars A semi official owners manual and marketing for four square,
Mark P. McDonald (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Power of foursquare: 7 Innovative Ways to Get Your Customers to Check In Wherever They Are (Hardcover)
Gallo's The Power of Foursquare is an unabashed and descriptive support for Foursquare. The book is loaded with positive explanations of Foursquare and how it might be used to generate revenue, satisfy customers, or help employees be more productive. The book contains helpful descriptions of how you should use Foursquare but it lacks balance as the descriptions and examples are decidedly positive and in favor of Foursquare. The one sided nature of Gallo's analysis and chapters limit the books value in terms of understanding the do's and don'ts of location based marketing.
Detailed discussion of Foursquare, how it works, how people use it.
Case examples of Foursquare applications that describe how people use the technology
Providing a repeatable framework CHECKIN which reflects the actions involved in using Foursquare.
The book is somewhat unbalanced discussing the positives with limited discussions of the challenges and pitfalls of location based marketing
There is limited discussion of implementation or operational issues. For example the terms security or privacy does not appear in the index
The book looks to market Foursquare more than anything else. That is a challenge if you are looking to learn more about mobile and location based marketing
Overall the reader should understand that this book's discussion begins and ends wih a single application to the exclusion of alternatives. There is nothing wrong with that but it's important to know in making your decision to invest your time in this book. It is very one sided but that will be just what you want if you are looking to use only Foursquare as your mobile marketing platform.

Thomas Duff "Duffbert" (Portland, OR United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Power of foursquare: 7 Innovative Ways to Get Your Customers to Check In Wherever They Are (Hardcover)
Most of the books and information I've read about the phenomenon that is foursquare centers on how and why people should use it. What I haven't seen much on is how and why a business should use foursquare as an integral part of their customer relationships. That gap is now eliminated with Carmine Gallo's new book The Power of foursquare: 7 Innovative Ways to Get Your Customers to Check In Wherever They Are. He makes a compelling argument as to why a business can't afford to ignore foursquare, complete with examples and case studies on companies that see a direct bottom-line result. Add in the fact that foursquare costs them nothing to use, and it's a no-brainer.
Introduction - What's All the Fuss About?; Connect Your Brand; Connection Superstars; Harness New Fans; Newbie Ringleaders; Engage Your Followers; Super Users; Create Rewards; Super Mayors; Knock Out the Competition; Swarm Masters; Incentivize Your Customers; Local heroes; Never Stop Entertaining; Crunked Kings; 10 Pitfalls to Avoid; Foursquare Founders in Their Own Words; Conclusion - Your Turn to Check In; Notes; Index
Using the CHECKIN acronym (Connect, Harness; Engage; Create; Knock; Incentivize; Never) as found in the chapter headings, Gallo builds the case for the value of foursquare to any business, both large and small. Using a large number of examples from an array of various sized businesses, he shows how reaching people based on their current location and choices, coupled with the possibility of receiving rewards or special recognition, turns a normal customer interaction into a "wow" experience that builds both loyalty and buzz. Even better, using foursquare is completely free! For instance, the Corcoran Group, a real estate firm in New York, uses foursquare to leave tips and inside information on foursquare that are pushed to people who follow their company on their mobile devices. These location-specific tips are pushed to the individual when they check in somewhere. No, it doesn't directly sell a house to a customer. What it does do is establish them as an expert in knowledge about the area, which *does* translate into interest and sales when someone goes to buy a house. This type of highly focused information works for them 24/7, and costs them nothing other than the time and effort to create the tips.
Probably one of my favorite examples is the AJ Bombers restaurant in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In 2008, the place was close to going under due to the economy and a lack of business. Joe Sorge, the owner, knew he had to do something drastic if he wanted to save the restaurant, but he had no budget for advertising. He decided to start using the social network tools of Twitter and Facebook to market to a tech-savvy crowd that caters to their online connectiveness. As AJ Bombers built up followers and catered to that group, things started to turn around. But when Sorge put foursquare into the mix, things exploded. Users started leaving tips for others, which lead to more people trying the restaurant. Sorge organized events around foursquare, such as Swarm parties so foursquare users could earn the Swarm badge. He had an "I'm On A Boat" party for people to unlock that badge (no, they're not on a river, and yes, it's possible). Add in special menus for the Mayor of AJ Bombers, winning a burger competition from another restaurant that had owned the title for 10 years, and wireless access points named "don't forget to check in on foursquare", and the place has been transformed into a must-visit location. They even have investors who want to take the place national. He owes most of his success to social media, and the vast majority of that is due to foursquare.
I had dropped my foursquare account a while back as I was wondering if it was really worth it. While this isn't a book targeted at the users of foursquare, it did cause me to start back up again if nothing more than to study how different companies are using the site to build their customer relationships. Either way, The Power of foursquare should be high on the reading list of anyone who is looking to connect with their current customer base and go beyond normal "advertising."

5.0 out of 5 stars The Power of Foursquare,
Sylvia Lafair, Ph.D. (White Haven, PA and San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Power of foursquare: 7 Innovative Ways to Get Your Customers to Check In Wherever They Are (Hardcover)
Foursquare as the name of a company is a conversation starter. What, does it mean? In this day of businesses named Squidoo or Google, Foursquare is a solid player. In fact, it really says what it is all about. It's a new kid on the block (at least for a month or so) of social, mobile networking and location based services. If you are in a new city for a meeting or just for fun and you want to know what's hot and what's not, press a button and you'll find out the skinny on where to go, what to do.
This well researched book by Carmine Gallo gives you good reason to join the Foursquare family. Major companies including ones that span the globe and are diverse brands from The American Red Cross to upscale shoe company Jimmy Choo,from NASA to Chili's Bar and Grill have all used Foursquare to their advantage.
Gallo, a former correspondent for CNN and CBS used his journalistic abilities to ask great questions and dig for answers . His case studies are clear and make you think about how this on line tool can benefit you and your company. If you are in business in the 21st Century, this book is one to read and underline.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Foursquare and seven `innovative ways' ago....",
Robert Morris (Dallas, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Power of foursquare: 7 Innovative Ways to Get Your Customers to Check In Wherever They Are (Hardcover)
Frankly, I did not know quite what to expect when I began to read this book, except that Carmine Gallo may perhaps develop some of the c once pts he discussed in an earlier book, The Innovation Secrets of Steve Jobs. Moreover, until then, I knew nothing about the foursquare organization. As Gallo explains, "Foursquare is a social media tool that businesses of any size can use to tell their stories and engage their customers in an innovative way...Users sign up for an account by visiting [...]." At this point, I need to point out that Gallo does not provide instructions for an easy process that takes about two minutes nor is his book an operations manual. Rather, presenting his material within a framework of seven innovative "ways" (strategies, actually), he can help any reader to take full advantage of the ever-expanding, ever-increasing opportunities that foursquare offers.
"For users, the free foursquare Smartphone app allows them to `check in' to a location and to share that location with friends. It's also a game. Users who check in earn points, badges, and rewards for exploring their cities. It makes their world a more interesting place." How so a game? "Because it's meant to be fun...People like collecting virtual badges that have no meaning except bragging rights. For example, a user will unlock the `superstar' badge for checking into 50 different venues or the `crunked' badge for checking in to four different venues in one night. It's silly, right? But millions of people around the world are having a blast paying the game. Foursquare is a game. It's meant to be fun. Play along."
Personally, I dislike audience participation and have no interest in playing online games to earn badges that have no meaning except bragging rights. However, I am among those who are eager to attract, retain, reward, and (yes) delight my customers. That's what makes foursquare appealing to me. Gall devised an acronym, CHECKIN, for the seven strategies and devotes a separate chapter to each:
1. How to Connect your brand with "Connection Superstars"
2. How to Harness new fans with "Newbie Ringleaders"
3. How to Engage your followers with "Superusers"
4. How to Create rewards with "Super Mayors"
5. How to Knock out the competition with "Swarm Masters"
6. How to Incentivize your customers with "Local Heroes"
7. Why you must Never stop entertaining with "Crunked Kings"
Sure, some of the nomenclature is goofy but so what? Under Gallo's expert supervision, each reader will learn how to make effective use foursquare capabilities. Keep in mind that the smartphone app is free, can activated in about two minutes, and offers substantial benefits to almost any user, whatever the size and nature of the given enterprise may be. Well-known brands that have active foursquare partnerships include American Express, Chili's Bar & Grill, McDonald's, NASA, 7-Eldeven, Starbucks, and Walmart but as Gallo demonstrates throughout the book with dozens of examples, family-owned businesses can also achieve great success with their foursquare association by attracting, retaining, rewarding, and (yes) delighting their own customers.
Gallo concludes this amazingly entertaining as well as in formative book with a rigorous review of "10 Pitfalls to Avoid" (Pages 231-239) followed by his interview of Dennis Crowley, foursquare's CEO and co-founder. I presume to conclude this brief commentary with an observation of my own: Ultimate success with foursquare will ultimately depend on effective innovation and effective presentation. In my opinion, the person best qualified to provide the best advice in both areas would be Steve Jobs but, in his absence, the next person best qualified would be the author of The Innovation Secrets of Steve Jobs and The Presentation Secrets of Steve Jobs: Carmine Gallo.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have signed defenceman Paul Ranger.
The 28-year-old spent last season with the AHL's Toronto Marlies, where he played 51 games and had eight goals and 17 assists.
Ranger is a veteran of five NHL seasons, all with the Tampa Bay Lightning. He was out of hockey between 2010-12 for personal reasons, and returned to the game after signing with the Marlies last August.

Prime Minister John Key has reacted to two new polls showing an increase in support for Labour, saying some recovery for the party is natural.
A One News-Colmar Brunton poll released last night and taken a week after Labour's leadership spat, saw the party's vote lift 3 percentage points to 35 per cent, with the Greens up one on 13 per cent.
That would give Labour and the Greens the numbers to govern alone.
National was down one on 44 per cent, and NZ First slipped below the 5 per cent threshold to 4 per cent.
Meanwhile, a 3News-Reid Research poll, also released yesterday, showed Labour on the rise at 34.6 per cent, up 1.6 percentage points. The Greens improved 1.3 to 12.9 per cent, while National was down 1.8 at 47 per cent.
With NZ First on just 2 per cent in the 3News poll, the Maori Party would probably hold the balance of power if it retained its three seats.
Key acknowledged National faced a "challenge" with potential coalition partners at the next election.
"It's worth remembering we're two years away," he told TVNZ's Breakfast programme.
"So, for a start off, NZ First would go with Labour, but the question is would NZ First get back, because a lot of Labour voters voted NZ First in 2011 because they knew their team wasn't going to get there."
He thought voters would choose National because "the Greens with Labour will stop economic growth. I think that's what New Zealanders will be confronted with."
Challenged about job losses under National's watch, Key said it had to be accepted times were tough and tough decisions needed to be made.
"We're on the right track to resolve those issues over time, but I accept that there's frustrations and things aren't going as fast as people would want," he told Breakfast.
Labour leader David Shearer's tough line on rival David Cunliffe, combined with a bold new housing policy, boosted his party's support, according to the polls.
It also appeared to have also helped his personal ratings too, and he was up 4 points to 15 per cent as preferred prime minister in the One News-Colmar Brunton poll.
John Key slid three to 39 per cent - the first time for four years the prime minister's rating has slipped below 40 per cent. NZ First leader Winston Peters was steady on 6 per cent.
In the 3News poll Key was at his lowest ebb in the preferred prime minister stakes, at 37.4 per cent against 12.6 per cent for Shearer.
The One News poll of 1000 had a margin of error of 3.1 per cent.
It was taken between November 24 and 28, the week after Labour's annual conference exposed divisions in the party but also after Shearer's widely praised keynote address.

Girl, 5, killed by man's suicidal jump from building, police say
Share via Email
SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA—South Korean police say a suicidal man jumping to his death killed a 5-year-old girl by falling on her as she walked with her parents outside the apartment building.
A police official said the 39-year-old man died immediately after he jumped Wednesday from the 11th floor of the building in the southeastern port city of Busan. The girl died later from brain damage and broken bones.
The official who spoke Friday declined to be named because the case is still under investigation.
The official says it's unclear why the man jumped. He says witnesses saw the man jumping but there was no suicide note.
South Korea has the developed world's highest suicide rate.

Oceania Paris Porte De Versailles
Location and cleanliness is good.
Small bed, no ventilation, and small shower cabin.
Internet did not work and no assistence was given. The key was left far from the apartment. The person at the location where the key was made available, did not give proper information on how to get to the apartment.
The appartement is nice - clean, quite comfortable, on a quiet street, the metro station is nearby, the shops too.
The only inconvenience was the internet - it didn't work.
Apppartment Montmartre is far from place for key, it's about 20 mins. you have to clime from key place to top of the Montmartre, then go down opposite direction. It will be disaster, if you have luggage cause long~ long stairs. Room is dirty. it has no oven, dishwasher, and washing machine only Micro and Electric cook top. Coffee maker was broken... The worst thing was, during the 3 nights, it didn't provides new towels.
Apartment is located at the north-east side of Montmartre, in a quiet street but very close to all touristic hotspots.
From the description of the apartment it was not apparent that it's quite far from the check-in and check-out location: be prepared to walk through Montmartre for 20 minutes with your bags. Apartment was not very well equipped (very little dishes, glasses, no iron) and not exceptionally clean: bathroom with black spots in corners, toilet with unremovable skidmarks and several insects spotted. When running the water from the bath, the drain seems to be blocked somewhere, causing water and a very foul smell to come from the sink. Apartment is quite far from a metro station: probably not an issue if you're on vacation, but less practical for a business traveller.
Excellent location. Good choice for independent travellers: come when you want, feel yourself private, make a meal if you want, use wi-fi to plan next travelling day and so on. Also good view from balcony to the streets of Monmartre. Sacre Couer is 5 min walking from apartaments. Supermarkets and cafes are in close proximity.
There is no curtain in the bathroom. Seemed a bit strange. Also there is a lack of dishes, so you can prepare only some basic things (via microwave and pan, no oven) Thus, there is kettle and little fridge that served well.
great view from the seventh floor of a building in montmartre - though the Basilica of the Sacré Cœur blocks this nice vista. i liked the surronding area. some lovely streets with nice shops to buy provisions and great bars and restaurants to splash the cash. the musee of montmartre nearby was excellent.
kitchen was poorly planned and equipped. the few plates and bowls provided were chipped and cracked. they should be binned and replaced. a trip back to ikea or one of the many flea markets of paris is needed. whilst you are there get some decent glasses for your guests to use. buy a decent sharp knife too for our appartment did not have a knife. it had no dish washing liquid or sponge/scourer to clean our dishes after use with.all this reflects very badly on the management of Appartement Montmartre. the little things make a big difference. the ceiling in the bathroom is peeling badly. it needs scraping off and repainting. your guests can see this why can you the management not? the shower drainwas severely blocked and needs unblocking.
The living space was good, very conveniently located to shops, restaurants, trains etc. Good value for money. Quiet, no major traffic noise at all. We had a great time there and would definitely recommend it to anyone.
We weren't given the free internet access codes. Having to drop the keys off at a different location especially when you have an early flight home in the morning. There's no shower curtain so the bathroom floor gets quite wet. Even though I mentioned these things, they never really bothered us at all and wouldn't stop me from going there again.
We could not fault the apartment, everything was clean and worked.
The directions given from the Hotel you pick the keys up where bad. No one tells you that the apartment halls do not have lights on, you need to find the light switches. The apartment was not serviced by the Hotel (dont know who would have serviced this if anything went wrong) Lack of english
It is cozy apartment and locate in relatively quiet area in Montmatre while maintaining good connection. Good price for the space.
too far from the Montmatre Pavilion where the key is to be picked up, not suitable for people with large luggage as dragging it up-slope would be exhausting. The apartment also need to refill some basic stuff such as tissue, washing liquid and sippers.

Prosecutors in Central California have obtained an arrest warrant for a tuberculosis patient who they say is contagious and has refused treatment.
San Joaquin County Deputy District Attorney Stephen Taylor said Thursday that police are looking for 25-year-old Eduardo Rosas Cruz, a transient who comes from a part of Mexico known for a drug-resistant strain of tuberculosis.
His immigration status was unclear Thursday.
Tuberculosis spreads through the air when infected people cough, sneeze, or otherwise expel air from their lungs. The disease can be deadly.
Prosecutors say Rosas Cruz was diagnosed in March when he went to the hospital for treatment of a severe cough. He was supposed to stay in a motel room, where a health worker would deliver his medication and watch him take it. But prosecutors say he took off.

Vltor A5 H1 Lightweight 4.56 oz Buffer AR-15 Carbine
Product #: 179173 Vltor #: A5H1
Product Information
This Vltor Lightweight H1 A5 Recoil System Buffer is a high quality component that can be used to tune the recoil impulse or cyclic rate of an AR-15 rifle equipped with the Vltor A5 Recoil System. The lighter weight of the H1 buffer could be beneficial for a rifle that is "undergassed" or that is experiencing short stroke cycling issues, as well as a method to increase the cyclic rate or lighten perceived recoil when used in tandem with an adjustable gas block and properly tuned. The Vltor A5 H1 Buffer weighs 4.56 oz.
NOTE: This buffer is designed specifically for use in the Vltor A5 Receiver Extension Buffer Tube, and will NOT fit in a regular AR-15 carbine or rifle tube. Attempting to use this buffer in a standard length AR-15 carbine or rifle buffer tube Could Result in Damage to the host firearm.

AIGA Design for Democracy
began to focus on election design in the wake of the 2000 presidential
election, seeking to apply information design principles of clarity and
simplicity in order to make voting easier and more accurate for all U.S.
Design for Democracy developed solutions for subsequent elections in
Illinois (Cook County and Chicago) and Oregon—detailed in Marcia
Lausen's 2007 book, Design for
Democracy: Ballot and Election Design (University of Chicago
Press/AIGA)—as well as election design guidelines for the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
In 2005, Design for Democracy began work with the U.S.
Election Assistance Commission (EAC), resulting in the establishment of national ballot and polling place design guidelines in 2007, which were distributed to 6,000 election officials across the country in 2008 and featured
in The New York Times online in the months leading up to the
November 2008 election.
Design for Democracy continues to support states and local election
jurisdictions, election officials, legislators, equipment providers,
printers and designers, as they apply the national guidelines to local
election materials. In addition to recent work with the states of
Florida, Kansas, New Jersey, New York and Ohio, AIGA Election Design
Fellows are on site in Oregon and Washington.

Subaru -- a brand more widely known for simple, dependable, and fuel efficient cars, sometimes with a sporty flair -- is going sexy and sleek with a new Legacy concept. The latest concept marks the 25th anniversary of the Legacy sedan and is a testament to how much vehicles such as the radically revamped Kia Optima, Hyundai Sonata and Ford Fusion have altered the balance in the mid-sized sedan market.

AHA: Christensen Cautions Hospital Leaders on Costs
The complexity of this plant is what drove the overhead costs so high, he explained.
"The plant wasn't inefficient, but the overhead exists because of complexity involved in promising that they would do anything for anyone," he said. "You have the same proposition. No matter what's wrong with you, bring it here."
As a consequence, the overhead costs are enormous.
One of Christenson's colleagues tried to figure out how many pathways patients could go through at UC Irvine. He found 110, "but it's infinite numbers, really."
He argued that most hospitals need to "fragment themselves. You can only address overhead through simplification."

Prominent environmentalist and author Bill McKibben penned the first book for the general public on climate change back in 1989 (The End of Nature).

Why is this march necessary now?

Police officer's kindness is an instant hit online
New York Police Officer Larry DePrimo remembered the night clearly, and that even with two pairs of socks on, his feet were freezing.
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A tourist's snapshot of a New York City police officer giving new boots to a barefoot homeless man in Times Square has created an online sensation.
Jennifer Foster, of Florence, Ariz., was visiting New York with her boyfriend Nov. 14, when she came across the shoeless man asking for change in Times Square.
As she was about to approach the homeless man, she said the officer — later identified as Larry DePrimo — came up to the man with a pair of all-weather boots and thermal socks on the cold night. She recorded his generosity on her cellphone.
DePrimo, 25, speaking Thursday, remembered the night clearly, that even with two pairs of socks on, his feet were freezing.
The homeless man "didn't even have a pair of socks on and I could only imagine how cold that pavement was," DePrimo said, clutching a box containing cufflinks given to him by Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly.
Foster's photo was posted Tuesday night to the New York Police Department's official Facebook page and became an instant hit. More than 420,000 users "liked" it as of Thursday evening, and more than 140,000 shared it.
Thousands of people commented, including one person who praised him as "An officer AND a Gentleman."
The photo shows the officer kneeling beside the man with the boots at his feet.
"I have these size 12 boots for you, they are all-weather. Let's put them on and take care of you," Foster quoted DePrimo as telling the man.
Foster, a dispatch manager at the Pinal County Sheriff's Office, wrote: "The officer squatted down on the ground and proceeded to put socks and the new boots on this man. The officer expected NOTHING in return and did not know I was watching."
DePrimo said buying the boots "was something I had to do." He tried to persuade the man to get something to eat, but he declined.
"When I brought out the shoes, it was just a smile from ear to ear," he said. "It was a great moment for both of us."
DePrimo said he was surprised when a friend told him the photo was posted on the Internet.
DePrimo said he has been with the department for 2 ½ years.
He is assigned to the Sixth Precinct, encompassing Greenwich Village and the West Village, and lives on Long Island with his parents.

PESA Awarded New GSA Contract, Continues Long-Term Support of U.S. Federal Agencies
Huntsville, Alabama â PESA, a leading designer and manufacturer of professional audio and video distribution solutions, today announced it has been awarded a new GSA Contract, effective Aug. 1. It is the companyâs second GSA Contract (the first remained active for 20 years), and the latest award will continue to enable PESA to service the U.S. Department of Defense, NASA and other federal agencies.
Awarded by the U.S. General Services Administration under its Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Program, GSA Schedule Contracts are long-term indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) agreements. They are designed to streamline acquisition procedures for federal agencies and expedite the delivery of goods using a list of prequalified vendors and contractors.
PESA (Contract Award GS-03F-062BA) is listed under Schedule 58: Professional Audio/Video, Telemetry/Tracking, Recording/Reproducing, and Signal Data Solutions. Through the program, its products are available on GSA Advantage, an online shopping site for government agencies, and are eligible for Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) and Contractor Team Arrangements (CTAs).
âWe believe the GSA MAS program is an important vehicle to make our products readily available to authorized GSA customers,â said Col. John T. Wright (Retired), PESA senior vice president, sales and business development. âPESAâs new GSA Contract is further validation of our long-term support to U.S. government agencies, and we look forward to providing more of the finest video distribution systems for command and control and a variety of other mission critical environments.â
Last month, PESA announced the DoD approved upgrades to its Video Distribution System (VDS) after initially receiving full certification in January 2013. PESA was the first company to achieve listing as a VDS on the Department of Defense Unified Capabilities (UC) Approved Products List (APL), which is the only listing of such equipment approved by the DoD to be fielded in DoD networks. The APL is managed by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), and the upgraded products received Interoperability Certification (IOC) and Information Assurance (IA) accreditation from DISAâs Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC).

Sea kayaking is one of the best ways to explore Thailand's magnificent beaches and islands. One can hire a kayak for an hour of leisurely paddling around the beaches of Krabi, take a day trip to explore the myriad of islands in Phang Nga Bay or Ang Thong Marine National Park, or have an overnight adventure that includes camping on a isolated beach. Sea Kayak and canoe trips typically feature two-man sit-on-top kayaks that allow visitors to alternate paddling and photographing while passing through sea caves or spotting exotic wildlife, including birds, moneys, and lizards!

Product description
Chinese textiles go back thousands of years. The Silk Road was named for the extensive trade in these fine materials. Due to China's size and history of successive wealthy dynasties, a vast amount of textile art is available for study today. Great tombs have yielded beautiful and dateable pieces worn and used by elite members of Chinese society. These and other fragile examples reside in museums and a few private collections. Other examples of antique Chinese textiles are found still to be in the marketplace. While it is impossible to look at these beautiful examples and not admire the skill of the weaver and embroiderer, until now there has been little information about their history or value. This comprehensive guide to collectible Chinese textiles with an extensive number of examples and with an understandable grading system that relates to what constitutes value. This book is beautifully illustrated with over 500 detailed photos of ceremonial court robes, badges, and decorative textiles dating from the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) through the Ching dynasty, (1644-1911). It is designed for historians, Asian studies sholars, and textile collectors, from beginning to advanced, as a real-world representation of available pieces and an indepth study. It is a must for appraisers and connoisseurs alike.
