Brief Summary | HIV-infected children from sub-Saharan Africa often present with severe malnutrition as their AIDS defining illness. Severe malnutrition that is not responding to nutritional rehabilitation is an indication to initiate highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). In severe malnutrition metabolic and or gut structural derangement may lead to inadequate antiretroviral (ARV) absorption and or erratic drug levels. The greater surface area to weight ratio in severely malnourished children could also place them at higher risk of under dosing compared to children with mild to moderate malnutrition. The paucity of ARV pharmacokinetic (PK) data in these vulnerable severely malnourished children speaks to the need to determine the PKs of ARVs and the most appropriate time to initiate HAART in this group of children. This study will utilize the recommended weight band dosing which simplifies dosing in resource limited settings and is the approach used in the WHO pediatric ARV dosing guidelines. It will also use pediatric formulations which have not been studied before in severely malnourished children. The findings of this study will determine the PK of HAART in this population with the overall goal of determining whether the current recommended doses are optimum doses for severely malnourished children and the most appropriate time to initiate HAART in the severely malnourished child. |

But, argues Anthony Iles, in seeking to universally include the excluded, they fail to allow for the negation of representational politics that such outsiders provoke.

GOO GONE: a People and Buildings talk, July 7
CUP's office is now located in a potential SUPERFUND SITE. Superfund is a federal program that investigates and cleans up the most complex uncontrolled or abandoned hazardous waste sites in the country. There are over 1,331 final and proposed sites on the National Priorities List (NPL), and thousands more wait for approval. Earlier this year, the Environmental Protection Agency proposed adding the Gowanus Canal to this list.
Please join the Center for Urban Pedagogy (CUP), and Urban Omnibus for a different kind of Superfund discussion. Artist Brooke Singer, advocate Anne Rabe, and historian Sarah Vogel will discuss the history of the Superfund program, the politics of designation, and the changing legal definitions of toxins, risk, and responsibility. Local experts will also give updates on the status of the Gowanus' designation.
Anne Rabe is the BE SAFE campaign coordinator for the Center for Health, Environment, and Justice. Anne has 25 years of organizing experience on environmental and social justice issues. From 1990 to 2003, she was director and co-founder of Citizens' Environmental Coalition, a statewide grassroots organization in New York State helping communities harmed by toxic pollution and organizing campaigns on State Superfund, radioactive waste disposal, Kodak's dioxin pollution, and other issues. She has received eight state and national awards for her work.
Brooke Singer is a media artist who lives in New York City. Her work blurs the borders between science, technology, politics, and arts practices. She works across media to provide entry into important social issues that are often characterized as specialized or opaque to the general public. She is currently Assistant Professor of New Media at Purchase College, State University of New York, and co-founder of the art, technology, and activist group Preemptive Media. She recently created Superfund365, an online data visualization and communication tool that highlights 365 of the worst toxic sites across the U.S.:
Sarah Vogel is currently the Program Officer for the Environmental Health program at the Johnson Family Foundation. She received her PhD from Columbia University's Department of Sociomedical Sciences. Her dissertation, The Politics of Plastics: The Molecular Biography of Bisphenol A, tells the history of the science and politics of this chemical, used in plastics production since the 1950s, known to have estrogen-like properties, and now found in the vast majority of American bodies. Her research and writing considers the question of how we all became a little plastic and the changing meaning of chemical risks and safety over time.

Public Phenomena
It has been a while since we last wrote you and we have some exciting things to report.
Temporary Services has started our own publishing house and online store: Half Letter Press. With that, we have just released our first self-published book. It is titled Public Phenomena and let us tell ya, it looks beautiful! 152 glossy full color pages. We can't wait for you to see it.
This book is the result of over ten years of photographic documentation and research on the variety of modifications and inventions people make in public. From roadside memorials to makeshift barriers, people consistently alter shared common spaces to suit their needs, or let both man-made and natural aberrations run wild. The result is a new kind of public space - with creative and inspiring moments that push past the original planned design of cities.

You can purchase the book directly from us for $15.000 using Paypal:
Half Letter Press takes its name from the half of a "Letter"-size sheet of paper printing format that we have used for nearly ten years and 80 publications. In addition to publishing books, which will include books by other authors in the future, Half Letter Press was created to better distribute our own work and the work of other creative people whose work we admire. We have created a online store toward this end:
This endeavor is just getting started. We hope you'll check back regularly. The store is the first step in building long-term independent infrastructure for supporting the work of others. You can read more of our ideas about this here:
Half Letter Press offers volume discounts for multiple copies of Public Phenomena. We also offer a variety of alternative payment methods including trading. Please consider telling your book and booklet-loving friends about us! If you make something you feel we should sell, or if you would like to help us distribute our new book Public Phenomena, please get in touch.

Street Level Youth Media Burns Down
Fire displaces youth media makers and residents
West Town's Street Level planning next moves
By MICAH MAIDENBERG
Web Extra!
At least four West Town residents and a prominent youth media organization based in the neighborhood have been displaced following a major fire at 1856 W. Chicago early Sunday morning.
No one was hurt in the blaze, which drew at least 100 firefighters and multiple trucks to the block. Firefighters saved one woman from the third floor of the building, said department spokesman Richard Ricardo. He did not immediately know its cause.
The fire has left Street Level Youth Media, based in the building since 1997, with an unexpected challenge. Manwah Lee, executive director of the organization, said the space is unusable. Staffers are currently sifting through the wreckage.
"It's not only a resource for young people, but a resource for the community," Lee said. "It's a great loss for all of us."
She estimated a minimum loss of $150,000 in production equipment, computers, office supplies and furniture.
The group's programming has been affected. An after-school initiative called Neutral Ground-which offered a computer lab, free Internet access and drew an average of 35 students a day to the building's storefront-is shuttered. A lab used for math tutoring and community events is ruined.
Other programs are continuing elsewhere. An audio and radio production course have relocated to a nearby music studio. Programs run at various Chicago Public Schools locations haven't been affected either, Lee said.
Lee said the organization is trying to determine if they'll be able to reopen on in their longtime location on Chicago Avenue or whether the organization will move elsewhere.
"We're optimistic about moving forward and rebuilding," Lee said.
Street Level Youth Media was founded in West Town in 1993 and provides media and technology education for young people from across the city. A fall course schedule posted online shows radio, audio and television production classes, and even a DJ workshop. The group has a bevy of partnerships with various non-profits, public schools, city agencies and arts organizations.
Paul Tereul, a director at Columbia College's Center for Community Arts Partnerships and a co-founder of Street Level, said the group has an important place in the youth media scene in Chicago. The group opened one of Chicago's first free internet cafes back in the 1990s, he said, and teachers from the organization have spun off new groups like Co-op Image and Free Spirit Media.
"It's going to take help and effort of a lot of people out there," he said. "It's more than just material things burned. The youth in hood do not have a center to go."
Lee said after clean-up and salvage, Street Level will approach funders and supporters about grants and next steps. Those wishing to contribute to the organization can mail donations to 1856 W. Chicago or call Lee at 773-862-5331. Their Web site, www.street-level.org, has an online donation option.
"It's definitely one of the biggest challenges," the group has faced, Lee said. "It's hard to compare this to anything else."

Turner Field, Atlanta, Georgia
ATLANTA -- Joe Girardi said Hiroki Kuroda is finally becoming comfortable in his first season with the New York Yankees.
The Yankees seem to always feel comfortable in Atlanta.Curtis Granderson hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the sixth inning and the streaking Yankees beat the Braves 3-2 on Wednesday night to complete their second straight three-game sweep.The Yankees, now 9-2 at Turner Field, have won all four regular-season series in Atlanta. Including the 1996 and 1999 World Series championships over the Braves, New York has won 14 of its past 16 games in Atlanta.Kuroda (6-6) gave up two runs in six innings. He stranded runners in scoring position in the second, third and fourth innings before giving up Brian McCann's two-run shot in the fifth. Granderson answered an inning later with his 19th homer.Kuroda has won three straight decisions, giving up a combined four runs in four starts in that span after he won only three of his first nine decisions.Girardi said the 37-year-old Kuroda, who signed a one-year deal with New York after four seasons with the Dodgers, needed time to adjust to his new baseball home."I think getting comfortable in New York sometimes can take a while," Girardi said. "I've seen it happen to some great pitchers. It can take a while."More On The Yankees

Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)Rivers of oil flow in Arkansas town after pipeline rupture
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
March 31st, 2013 Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) Thousands of barrels of oil flowed throughout the Arkansas town of Mayflower this week after an Exxon Mobil crude oil pipeline ruptured. Exxon shut the 50-centimeter Pegasus pipeline, which carries crude oil from Pakota, Illinois, to the Gulf Coast, after the leak was discovered late last week. LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Already hit with a $1.7 million fine by regulators this week over a 2011 spill in the Yellowstone River, Exxon said that a few thousand barrels of oil had been observed.The spill occurred in a subdivision, according to local media reports, and Mayflower police said the oil had not reached the nearby Lake Conway. A spill of more than 10,000 barrels was deemed "to be conservative" estimate by federal, state and local officials. "The air quality does not likely present a human health risk, with the exception of the high pooling areas, where clean-up crews are working with safety equipment," Exxon said in a statement. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency had categorised the rupture as a "major spill," Exxon said. Twenty-two homes were evacuated following the incident. Clean-up crews had recovered approximately 4,500 barrels of oil and water. The spill occurred at an inopportune time, as the U.S. state department is considering the fate of the Keystone XL pipeline, which could carry 800,000 barrels of crude per day from Canada's oil sands to the Gulf Coast. Environmentalists have sought to block its approval over concern about the impact of developing the oil sands. Supporters say Keystone will help bring down the cost of fuel in the United States. The Arkansas spill was the second incident last week where Canadian crude has spilled in the U.S. A train carrying Canadian crude derailed in Minnesota, spilling 15,000 gallons of oil on Wednesday.

Bamboo Wall 2.0
A hyzer bomb or thumber were common shots around Hole 7's bamboo wall in recent years at the USDGC. This year, however, those same shots could likely lead to a missed mando.
Once known to be one of Winthrop Gold's easier birdies, the Bamboo Hole now sports a triple mandatory entrance that strongly encourages a more direct route.
Instead of a ceiling-less gap from two contoured bamboo walls, the new structure is essentially one piece with a garage door shaped opening that's 15.5 feet wide and 10.5 feet tall. The gap is the only way to gain entry to the green.
"It will take a line drive to get it there," said Course Superintendent Michael Shugart, who built the new wall.
At the wall's ends, mando string runs the width of the hole, so if players miss the wall completely, they'll be making a visit to one of two drop zones, placed 45 feet from either side of the gap's opening. From there it's no picnic to the green either. Players may be forced to employ some inventive shots to wind up with an easy putt.
USDGC Course designers Harold Duvall and Dave Dunipace thought the hole's previous set-up did not have enough scoring variety, and emotionally there was little upside.
"A birdie was not a cause for celebration – it was simply what was expected. Par or worse was failure," said Duvall.
Now, just getting the disc inside the gap will be a cause for celebration. That, followed by a successful birdie putt will give players "two scoops of joy," said Duvall.
The tradeoff is fewer ace runs, but the ace run is still there.
Making up the wall, about 100 Bamboo poles are supported by six, 16-foot 4 by 4 wooden posts. Construction took a total of 5 days including some adjustment to make the gap taller. At its tallest point the wall now stands at about 14 feet tall, which is about three feet taller than before.
Once Duvall gave the order to make something with a triple mando, Shugart started figuring out how to hold it together.
"A well braced backbone to the wall is what it needed," said Shugart.
Building this wall was a greater challenge then the last time it was built in 2010, said Shugart. With the triple mando, there were more variables to keep on top of while still making it a solid structure, said Shugart.
Shugart and USDGC staffer Justin Alderman, who assisted on the job, felt like the end result will amount to a stronger structure then years before.
"It's (Hurricane) Hugo proof … At least it feels Hugo proof," said Alderman.

Coconut Creek Man Sentenced to Prison for Misuse of National Science Foundation Seal
Wifredo A. Ferrer, United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, and Allison C. Lerner, Inspector General, National Science Foundation (NSF), announced that Edward F. Elliot, 67, of Coconut Creek, Florida, was sentenced today to a year and a day in federal prison, followed by two years of supervised release, and a fine of $25,000 as a result of his guilty plea to charges of falsely making and forging the seal of the National Science Foundation, an agency of the United States, and knowingly using and affixing such fraudulently made and forged seals and facsimiles upon instruments, documents, and papers, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 506(a)(1) and (2).
U.S. District Judge Daniel T. K. Hurley, who previously accepted Elliot's guilty plea, imposed the prison sentence after a lengthy hearing.
U.S. Attorney Wifredo A. Ferrer stated, "Defendant Elliot's misuse of the National Science Foundation's seal gave his pet dietary business an air of legitimacy that it had not earned and misled customers into using products made in laboratories that had not, in fact, been monitored or inspected by the NSF. Elliot's use of the NSF seal was a fraud, intended to help him make more money by defrauding his customers."
Allison Lerner, National Science Foundation Inspector General said, "This sentence sends a strong signal to anyone who would seek to mislead the public by making fraudulent representations regarding National Science Foundation support for an organization or enterprise. I commend the U.S. Attorney's office for its strong support in this case."
According to court records and statements made in court, from as early as December 2010, the Deerfield Beach-based company, Pet Corner International, LLC (PCI), at which the defendant served as Operations Manager under a series of false names, including Ted Godfrey and Ted Lambert, marketed distributorships to individuals interested in selling a line of pet dietary supplements for dogs offered by PCI. PCI's website and various promotional materials and training manuals asserted that the products were produced in a laboratory audited and inspected by the National Science Foundation. This fraudulent claim was buttressed by the use of the seal or logo of the Foundation on the site and in promotional paperwork sent to potential and actual distributors. In court, the government indicated that at least 62 contracts were signed by distributors between December 2010 and June 2011, and that the false statements continued to be made to potential customers as late as September 2011, well after specific notice had been given to PCI and Elliot by attorneys in the General Counsel's Office of the Foundation that the claims were untrue and unlawful. Elliot was described in court by one of the distributors as having used false names, and as the individual principally responsible for communication with potential buyers and the distributors already signed-on by PCI.
The National Science Foundation, an independent federal agency established by Congress in 1950, is variously mandated to promote the progress of science, and to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare. The agency meets this mission by funding approximately 20% of all federally supported basic research conducted by America's colleges and universities with an annual budget of approximately $6.9 billion. The National Science Foundation neither tests consumer products, nor audits and inspects private laboratories.
Mr. Ferrer commended the investigative efforts of the Special Agents of the National Science Foundation whose investigative efforts resulted in the charges in this case. The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Thomas Watts-FitzGerald.

UCLA will host several junior football prospects on campus tonight, and part of the expected group is El Cajon Valhall's Peter Thomas, one of the top-ranked quarterbacks in the 2010 class.
Monthly Archives: January 2009
Commit wavering?
Getting to know…
Te'o timetable
When I spoke to Brian Te'o, the father of Punahou High of Honolulu standout linebacker Manti Te'o, he laid down the timetable for Manti's decision, and how it would be done.
He said a he thought Manti would make his decision "by Monday evening," but ESPN has asked he not say anything until Wednesday, which is signing day. He will gather with other recruits from the state at the Neal Blaisdell Center in Honolulu and make his announcement then.
Today's stuff
Here is a story I wrote about UCLA and its inability to score late in games recently.
Also, I will host a chat during tonight's game with Cal. The chat will begin at 7:25 p.m.
Another visitor
Te'o update
I spoke with Brian Te'o, the father of elite linebacker Manti Te'o out of Punahou High of Honolulu, and he had several things to say.
He said UCLA coach Rick Neuheisel, offensive coordinator Norm Chow and defensive coordinator Chuck Bullough visited with the family Monday and it went well.
Brian Te'o added that USC coach Pete Carroll was in the family's home Tuesday and members of Notre Dame's staff was going to visit tonight.
"This will be the last visit of this recruiting time," he said.
Te'o will take an official visit to USC this weekend before a family discussion takes place and Te'o decides.
"Back on track"
UCLA point guard Darren Collison explained why the Bruins are having such difficulty scoring at times, and it is because opposing defenses are defending UCLA's ability to drive to the basket.
"Their packing the inside really, really tight, even if they're in a man(-to-man) defense," Collison said. "It's like every time you drive, the weakside guy is constantly helping. It's up to us driving that once we do get into the paint, to look for the kickout.
"It's not the end of the world right now. I think nobody's used to the adversity UCLA is going through, but we're going to get back on track. Mark my words: We are going to get back on track."
Cable and the Raiders
It is being reported by ESPN former UCLA offensive coordinator Tom Cable will be the next head coach of the Oakland Raiders, but the Oakland Tribune is reporting the deal is not yet done.
Cable was the offensive coordinator when UCLA went 10-2 in 2005, and was instrumental in getting former defensive coordinator DeWayne Walker hired at UCLA.
Q&A time
Ask the questions by 8 a.m. Friday and I will provide the answers throughout the day.
Also, if you are having trouble registering, you can email me the question.
Remember, keep the questions to 50 WORDS OR LESS or they will be deleted. Thanks.

This article has been great in helping me teach the kids at my school a bit about the history of Scrabble. I teach ESL and one of my classes favorite things to do is play Scrabble when we have a few free minutes.
I think that Alfred Butts really stumbled onto a great way to teach kids vocabulary without them even knowing they were learning anything. What I do with my ESL kids is let them have access to a dictionary while they play. They can use a word from the dictionary but they have to use that new word in a sentence correctly. This is as a bit of a penalty for not being able to place down tiles on their own.

The IC Explorer Program is a competitive Illinois College sponsored internship program for currently enrolled students who will be returning to IC the following year. Students are paid by a combination of grant funding from the state of Illinois, the employers, and Illinois College. Summer interns who live outside the area and need housing may be provided housing on campus or at New Salem at no fee. All summer IC Explorer interns will earn three hours of summer internship credit at no additional fee.
Due to funding regulations from the State of Illinois, only students who are official residents of Illinois are eligible for this program. We encourage our international and out-of-state students to talk with the Office of Career Services about other internship opportunities.

Most summer interns work full-time for ten weeks, and the academic year intern works about 10 hours per week. The exact number of internships is finalized after the state grant is awarded in February each year. Please see the list below for the typical offerings. Students need to submit a resumé and cover letter for every opportunity they wish to apply for. There is no limit on the number of internships a student may apply for. Students may only be awarded an IC Explorer internship two times.

I miss this stuff. I've run out of my large bottle and the smaller 2oz bottles. I wish they'd continue making it. Best 2in1 body scrub 'n' cleanser i've ever bought.
LEMON PLEDGE!!! Thats it! I've been wracking my brain, sniffin' thru my shower trying to figure out what the heck that smell was. Thank God someone figured it out. :)
What a wonderful scrub. Not harsh but very effective. I epilate the hair on my legs (similar to waxing) and I need a good exfoliator to aid in the prevention of ingrown hairs. This was not scratchy and it even foams up like a cleanser. I really like it. I did read one review that said it smelled like lemon pledge and I thought "Nah, that couldn't be true." Well, guess what? It's true. UPDATE: It works okay, but I'm wore out on the funky lemon scent. I won't be buying this again.
The consistency of the product is nice & fun- But, I CANNOT take the scent of this. The one I got smelled just like Lemon Pledge:( It was returned.
This is a great combination of foaming shower gel and a gentle scrub for the body. The smell is light and citrusy and it leaves your skin soft, clean and exfoliated but not red like some scrubs can.
This is a great gentle daily scrub. This smells heavenly- has soft citrus tones. The scrubbing particles aren't nearly as jagged as their Gingerbread Scrub or their Amazing Grace Scrub. I consider this almost an exfoliating shower gel. So great to use everyday. I love, love, love this!
To me this smell heavenly. I didn't expect to like the scent but suprisingly this to me is a scent that just lifting/lighten up your spirit that is just wonderful to have in the shower. It scrubs well and not at all harsh.
This is 16oz(about 475ml) for $60AUD in sydney. All the philosophy products are really expensive here :(
It's cream colored, with a hint of pale green/blue. Granules within a smooth paste.
I don't like the bottle, but it seems the best way to store it anyhow, just that the bottom bit is hard to get out.
The full size lasted me almost 6 months, using it 3~4 times a week, if it was purchased in US, i'm sure it's quite economical.
It scrubs just as nicely as exfotonic and isn't as harsh, and leaves the skin supply and moisturised still, while it helped to get rid of my acne on the back!
you get used to the smell after a few washes, it's not intolerable, in fact i grew to like it, a bit of a fresh crisp lemongrassy scent minus the citrus tone (if u understand what i mean...). continued >>
Yummy yummy yummy yummy! It smells like pretty clouds on a sunny day...heaven is right. The scent is nice, the scrubbing action is nice, rinses clean. My complaint is that I was lured to it because it is described as a foaming exfoliant--I found that idea wonderful. It doesn't really foam though. Too bad. Still love the scent. A friend, who hates most scent imaginable, used it @ my place and loved it too.

Arizona Cardinals
Cardinals ask permission to interview Denver's Mike McCoy
Just a few hours after the firing of Ken Whisenhunt as the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals, the organization has begun the search for a replacement, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
The Cardinals, along with the Chicago Bears, have asked for permission to interview Denver Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy for the vacant position.
McCoy, 40, has spent 13 seasons as an NFL assistant, including the last four as the architect of the Denver Broncos' offense. This season, with Peyton Manning at the controls, the Broncos ranked fourth in the NFL in total offense (397.9 yards per game) and second in points per game (30.1). Denver is riding an 11-game winning streak heading into the postseason as the AFC's top seed.
But maybe more impressively, McCoy helped Denver to the playoffs last season with Tim Tebow at quarterback. McCoy helped devise a system to take advantage of Tebow's skill set and the team rebounded from a 2-5 start to go 8-8, win the AFC West, and defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Wild Card round of the playoffs.
According to Schefter's report, McCoy will interview with the Cardinals this weekend, as Denver has a bye week for the first round of the postseason.

Christian Media Jobs
There are literally thousands of Christian television and radio stations, as well as hundreds of Christian newspapers and magazines, not to mention the rapidly growing number of Christian Web sites on the Internet.
All of these communication mediums require content, programs, and funding, either in the form of donations or advertising, or both. This means that these companies or organizations (some of them are non-profit) hire writers, editors, graphic designers, on air talent, directors, producers, videographers, sales people, managers, office personnel, and other professionals such as accountants, lawyers, tax professionals, and others. The number of personnel a company needs depends on its size and format. Some smaller Christian television stations earn their income by selling air time and producing programs for the Christian ministries that purchase it. They employ a handful of people to shoot, edit, and broadcast these programs.
Larger stations function much like secular television stations, filling their broadcast day with their own programs, as well as purchased programs, and selling air time that is difficult to fill with programs paid for by advertising, such as the early morning spots.
Check out the latest Christian Broadcasting Network job openings posted in the JobMonkey Job Center!
Christian radio stations are similar, filling their air time with their own programming, whether that is talk radio, music, or a combination of the two, and earning their income primarily from advertising. Christian newspapers and magazines also usually depend on advertising income for the majority of their revenue. Exceptions to this business model are publications that are produced by a specific denomination for the benefit of their parishioners. These publications are funded by the church, through contributions from their individual churches. Christian Web sites typically stem from a particular church, organization, or ministry, or other media outlet. For example, a Christian television station will have its own Web site to promote its programming. There are Christian e-zines which only exist on the Internet, and they also depend on advertising for revenue. If you are creative, energetic, and enjoy working with people, working at a Christian media outlet may be a very good career choice for you.
People who work for Christian media usually fall into three main categories: sales people or managers, production employees, or administrative employees.

Contact Sports Desk: Call: 603-516-2949 / E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com Gagne, Rochester roll to district title over Dover
Wednesday, July 10, 2013
ROCHESTER — The Rochester Babe Ruth All-Stars were happy to have Josh Gagne back in the fold. After Gagne's abbreviated 10-0 shutout of Dover in the District IV 15-year-old baseball championship they were positively jumping for joy.
There was no dramatic repeat in the nightcap. After a scoreless first inning, Rochester plated five runs in the top of the second on just one hit. Dover's tired pitching allowed the first six runners to reach on a single by Christian Dow, a walk, two hits batsmen, and two more walks. Ricky Creteau and Drew Healey added RBI ground outs and Gagne was spotted a 5-0 lead. "We ran out of gas," said Dover coach Brian Allen. "We played a good game against Portsmouth to finish that one up. Josh, obviously, pitched well today and Rochester's got a good club. ... You could see the energy coming out of the guys and we were trying to keep them focused to stay in it." It was 10-0 after three innings as Rochester added five more runs in the third. Logan Larochelle had an RBI single, Chris Parker chipped in with a run-scoring grounder and Creteau dropped a two-run single just off the left-field line.
Ryan Connolly, Griffin Guerra and Steven Constas each had a hit for Dover. Gagne walked two and whiffed three. "They weren't catching up much, so we just threw fastballs," said Dow, the Rochester catcher. "I only called a couple curveballs." Dover used four pitchers, including Tim Verrill, Nick Martinen, Connolly and Matt Wooster. "Our pitching was not where we would have liked it to have been," coach Allen added. "Coming out of the lower bracket we had some hurting arms. It was good to be playing in this final game and we hoped we could have played better and had another game (today) to extend the season one more day." The last four batters in the Rochester lineup scored two runs: Ben Gravel, Larochelle, Kyle Carignan and Parker. Dow went 2 for 2 with a run scored, and Creteau had two hits and two RBIs. "We focused on coming in strong defensively and having our arms well rested," coach Slattery said. "We've got a lot of pitching. But these kids wanted to get to the states. They deserve to get to the states. It's defense and pitching that wins and that's been the motto all along. Give Dover credit, they put the bat on the ball. But I think we made a lot of plays."
Rochester, 10-0 (5 inns.) |
