2014 has been an exciting year at WBGO, launching a new program, and, of course, continuing to present our music to listeners on air, online and on the WBGO mobile app.
Perhaps you have tuned in on Wednesday or Sunday evenings to hear our newest show. The program, Jazz Night in America, is hosted by internationally renowned New Jersey resident Christian McBride. What makes this show even more special is that it was born from a collaboration between WBGO, NPR Music and Jazz at Lincoln Center. And public radio audiences- some of them new to our music- are embracing it. It shows that our music is relevant. The stories behind our music are compelling. And the music is wonderful.
Maybe you are a regular listener to The Checkout. Our new host is Simon Rentner who has been contributing to the show since its inception. The show features iconic artists, jazz stars from half a world away and artists who are on the rise, but always current. Speaking of current, log on to www.WBGO.org/Radar to hear hand selected jazz releases before they are available to the public. We recently celebrated the 100th recording available through this unique service to our listeners.
If you are a member of our Jazz Leadership Society, you may have joined us for our annual get together. The divine Barbara Carroll was our headliner and we surprised her with fellow JLS member Tony Bennett who joined her onstage for a song. This was a moment that many of us will never forget. Speaking of Tony, if you missed Michael Bourne's interview with him and Lady Gaga, you can find it on our website, or the cover of the November issue of Downbeat! The very same week Michael's interview aired on WBGO, we had Hugh Masekela and Quincy Jones on the air! If you missed any of them on the radio, you can find these and other exclusive interviews and specials on the WBGO blog.
Did you travel with us this year? We took trips to Montreal, and Brazil, The Newport Jazz Festival and the Mohonk Mountain House. We produced special events such as Our Point of View in partnership with Blue Note Records, and special nights of music at Yamaha, and in our very own studios.
Maybe you attended one of our Kids Jazz Concerts and watched a child hear our music for the very first time.
And Rhythm Revue. And Gary and Doug in the morning. And Rhonda and Michael, Awilda, Brian, Rob, Bill, Sheila, Bob, Monifa, Daniel, Eulis.
Thank you for being a part of this great public radio station. As long as we can count on your support, we can continue to share these experiences with you.

Gear Review
The best all-around
The Conti 4000S is the best combo racing/training road tires around. Ultra light and great grip, with unbelievable flat-protection and super long life. The only detriment is you'll get a flat spot if you ride a trainer extensively; just be less lazy than I and change out your rear tire when you have to ride the trainer.

Report reveals many billing complaints for NH provider
The report found that several of the company's practices have upset patients
By Ted Siefer
The Union Leader
MANCHESTER, N.H. — A long-awaited report on the city's emergency ambulance provider, American Medical Response, finds little evidence of overbilling but confirms many of the complaints lodged against the company over the past year.
The report, presented to the Committee on Accounts, Enrollment and Revenue Administration Monday by Auditor Kevin Buckley, describes several practices that have upset patients and aldermen, but that are not violations of its contract with the city Fire Department.

Delicia Restaurant Review: Latin cuisine inflected with flavors from the Americas, Spain and the Caribbean keeps the crowds steady at Delicia, a neighborhood restaurant that has become a destination for diners around the city. Hues of browns, tans and white lend a hip brightness to the walls and sleek furniture, including the comfortable upholstered booths. An amuse-bouche of sancocho, a mildly spiced Spanish soup, starts the festive mood while you peruse the menu. Those looking for a familiar Mexican selection will be more than happy with the plentiful fish taco dish, accompanied by herbed rice and stewed black beans, or the ample, tasty empanadas with a creamy habanero sauce. Alternatively, savor tuna with sun-dried tomato chimichurri, mofongo and roasted vegetables, or the aji de Gallina, shredded chicken with aji amarillo sauce, steamed rice, toasted walnuts and a hard-cooked egg. Grilled triggerfish with olives, capers, tomato, onion, jalapeño, cinnamon and roasted seasonal vegetables keeps guests returning time and again --- especially when followed by traditional tres leches cake, topped with guava compote, tomato preserves or chocolate sauce. Cocktails include pisco sours and mojitos, along with margaritas and sangría. Most wines and beers are Spanish, so be adventurous or ask the knowledgeable servers for suggestions.

Crime shows have fallen in love with forensics in recent years. Not just standby crime shows like Law & Order and CSI, but all types of crime drama make liberal use of DNA testing and substance analysis to catch their bad guys. It appears that Hollywood's forensic science colleges teach their graduates a custom curriculum that is only applicable for a three-walled lab littered with a forest of light trees and multiple cameras surrounding its scientists. While there are some truths to its dramatic depiction, there are significant forensic science investigation differences that are simply not applicable to real life. Here is a list of major differences.
1. Time Lapse: Hollywood science has to finish the job in a couple hours, max. In reality, DNA testing and similar lab projects take weeks to produce any results. One reason is the enormous backlog lab technicians have to fight through. Tests wait by the hundreds for completion.
2. Packing Heat: Cop shows love the action, so analysts and forensic experts often hit the beat with gun and badge in tow, pound on both doors and pavement. In real life, except for the crime scene analysts tend to stay in the lab. They are rarely sworn officers carrying guns, and do not interrogate suspects.
3. Paperwork: Forensic science requires a long, long trail of paperwork confirming and double-checking all evidence so it will hold up in court. Because this paperwork is time-consuming, complex, and very, very monotonous, crime shows typically pretend it just doesn't happen.
4. Fingerprint Probability: Fingerprint databases on crime shows pop up with perfect matches all the time. In real life, collecting fingerprints is tricky business, and even the best techniques result in a probability of confirmation, often with dozens of possible matches and the potential for human error. Often prints are not in databases at all, making them dead-ends in real life cases.
5. Showy Corpses: Autopsy scenes are a gruesome favorite of Hollywood, but true morgue masters note several key differences. A real corpse often has (depending on death) a face swollen beyond recognizability, gray skin, wide purple blotches called livor mortis, and other marked disfigurements. In other words, Hollywood likes its corpses too pretty.
6. Team Labor: In most cop shows, a team of at least four or five teams up to tackle one case. In real life, teams have to work several different cases at once, with different people serving in several positions at the same time, juggling multiple cases. They don't have time to run off and build experiments or test gunfire. Instead, entirely separate departments are in charge of ballistics testing, poison investigation, and biological examination.

Transportation Department Issues Emergency Rail Order To Ensure Safety
An emergency order requiring rail companies to inform emergency management officials about shipments of crude oil through their states has been issued. Safety and proper emergency response is the purpose for it.
Rail companies have already begun phasing out older tank cars in response to safety concerns with transporting crude oil. Now the department of transportation has issued an emergency rail safety order for the companies transporting a million gallons or more.
Aroostook Emergency Management Agency Director Darren Woods says, "The order is very specific to Bakken crude oil, it comes from a specific part of the country. They believe that to be a little bit more flammable than other types of crude oil."
This rail safety order really comes after recent train derailments and accidents containing crude oil. And what the order does really, is require the rail companies now, to notify emergency service agencies what their rail cars contain as they pass through.
Woods says in Aroostook county there currently is no crude oil that transports on the rails. But he says there are rail roads in southern maine and about 10 miles across the border in canada, that do have tank cars transporting the oil, which keeps his agency alert.
Woods, "It's our job to plan for emergencies, for all emergencies. And in order for us to understand what we need to plan, prepare, and train our responders to react to, we need to know what's out there."
The emergency rail safety order was issued May 7th, and technically goes into effect 30 days from that date. So now, when a rail company does report it's transportation of crude oil, the information works it's way down to local responders.
Woods, "All that information would go into the state emergency response commission. It gets relayed down to the local emergency planning committees which are counties, and the county emergency managements work with them."
As emergency officials are notified, woods says they then look at where the oil shipment is going through, ensure the responders have the proper equipment, and safety measures are in place.
Follow the link below for full details on the emergency safety order from the transportation department.

By Sgt. Aimee Millham, USASpecial to American Forces Press Service
HEIDELBERG, Germany, Sept. 19, 2006 Set in a banquet hall, Guardian Shield '06 was a far cry from the typical frenzy of emergency response exercises -- but that was exactly the point.
"You don't want to be exchanging business cards in the middle of a mock crisis," said Ronnie Faircloth, acting director of the Combat Support Directorate of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, Fort Belvoir, Va.
Guardian Shield, held Sept. 13-15, was a DTRA-sponsored and U.S. Army Europe-led exercise that provided a forum to evaluate the consequence-management resources of U.S. military units in Europe, said Bill Liles, joint planning group exercise planner with USAREUR plans and operations.
The table-top exercise involved an "anthrax attack" in the Benelux, a union of the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg. The mock attack gave USAREUR leaders a better understanding of the Benelux's host-nation capabilities and where support would be needed if a terrorist attack or major catastrophe were to occur.
"There are 92 countries in the (European Command area of operations), and USAREUR has to be prepared to support all of them," said Faircloth, whose organization created and developed Guardian Shield.
The exercise included a day of academics in which 110 attendees heard from various host-nation leaders from the Benelux and officials from U.S. embassies to the Netherlands and Belgium on how they use host-nation assets to deal with crises.
Other blocks of instruction included experts discussing weapons of mass destruction, and nuclear, biological and chemical warfare.
"Thinking of WMDs is sobering," said Col. Dean A. Nowowiejski, U.S. Army Garrison Benelux commander. "But we must be prepared for these things because they can get very complex, very quickly, with all of the agencies involved."
Such complexity was evident to participants when, on the exercise's second day, they were handed their scenario, divided into three cells and told to figure out how to quell the aftermath of an attack while properly employing all the key players.
"Elements of the Department of State, the host nation, the military -- they all do things differently," Faircloth said. "Exercises like these allow us to discuss those differences and get in sync."
While it was simply the Benelux's rotational turn at the exercise -- last year's Guardian Shield involved Germany -- the implications of its participation were significant.
The Benelux area has almost 11,000 troops and their family members, most of whom fall under the Benelux command, which has garrisons scattered across six countries -- a feeding ground for poor communication, Nowowiejski said.
"They have three AFN radio frequencies, and everyone there lives off post," Liles noted. "If you travel from one installation to the next, you have to switch to a different AFN channel."
Given this setup, exercise attendees identified dissemination of information to the public as a trouble spot, Liles said. "How would we inform all these families of where to go and what to do, while still minimizing panic?" he said.
As director of the exercise's second day, Army Brig. Gen. Yves Fontaine witnessed firsthand the discussions that brought these points to light. "They were sharing and discussing," said Fontaine, commander of USAREUR's logistics division, adding that it was interoperability at its best.
Among other things, being able to put faces to names made it a successful exercise for Nowowiejski -- who quoted Maj. Gen. Mark P. Hertling, USAREUR operations director, as saying, "If you now know the face of the person on the other end of the phone line, you're successful."
Liles said a goal of Guardian Shield was being able to see how other countries operate. "While we expect U.S. assets to be strong enough to take care of everything, there are resources out there from host nations that are willing to help and get the job done," he said.
The exercise ended with an after-action review in which issues, such as the need for more secure communications in the Benelux, were addressed. Liles said these results are used by USAREUR's anti-terrorism division to make recommendations to USAREUR plans and operations on resources the command needs.
It's what happens after these exercises that gauges their success, Nowowiejski said.

- What are the other commonly espoused answers to "Yali's question," and how does Jared Diamond address and refute each of them?
1 Answer | Add Yours
Other commonly accepted answers to "Yali's question" are either "assumed biological differences"(Diamond 18), "changes in geographical climate" (Diamond 22), or "European guns, infectious diseases, steel tools and manufactured products"(Diamond 23). Diamond writes off the explanation of assumed biological differences as an underlying feeling of genetic superiority by European peoples. Diamond says that explanation of changes in geographical climate, too, fails to survive scrutiny because "…complex irrigation systems did not accompany the rise of centralized bureaucracies but followed after a considerable lag." (Diamond 23). Diamond says that the explanation about guns germs and steel is on the right track but incomplete because it only offers a proximate explanation.

Inventor Robb Hendrickson '99 follows his own tune
Song of the Jellifish
By Gregg Mitchell '89
Roots-rocker Ben Harper has one. So do guitar gods like Joe Satriani and Adrian Belew. Is it the latest bling-bling ice? Personal spiritual instructor? No, it's the Jellifish, a little piece of state-of-the-art technology meets old-fashioned ingenuity that's turning the music industry on its ear.
Designed with custom-wound 32-gauge guitar strings cut at an angle like a kitchen broom, then laser-cut and fused to a piece of gleaming Lexan, the Jellifish is a deceptively low-tech tool that, when brushed across a guitar's coated strings, echoes sounds similar to other string instruments, as varied as the cello or 12-string guitar.
Although at first glance it looks a bit like a typical guitar pick, that's where the similarities end. The Jellifish's unique design allows musicians to create new sonic textures using three basic techniques—the "chorus" (producing an effect similar to a 12-string guitar or chorus pedal), the "pluck" (creating a tone similar to a harpsichord or dulcimer) and the "bow" (imitating the sound of bowed instruments like the cello or violin).
"To be honest, I don't even refer to the Jellifish as a guitar pick—I think of it as a hand-held mechanical effect," says inventor Robb Hendrickson '99. Or, as one customer's testimonial posted on his Web site (
) raves, "It's a ten-dollar stomp box!" – all with no batteries or cables required.
Struck by how his early prototype resembled a jellyfish, Hendrickson christened his patented pick, as well as its parent guitar-accessories company, with a re-tooled version of its namesake: the Jellifish.
It was a fitting name choice for someone who has spent plenty of time working underwater, just one of many unusual twists in his career.
A Chicago native who later moved to Los Angeles, he graduated from Pomona with a concentration in mathematical economics at the nontraditional age of 32. He has tried his hand at everything from offshore oil diving to investment banking to a stint as a music studio engineer. "I've always done what has interested me," he says.
Fascinated by oil field diving in his younger years, he was soon earning a living doing "ultra-thermic burning" (essentially, "cutting things apart underwater"), later graduating to underwater welding and a slew of underwater construction jobs both in Chicago and on the West Coast.
Then Hendrickson made the unlikely leap from offshore to office space. He attempted to take over the commercial diving firm he'd been running as operating officer and, during the somewhat labyrinthian process of rounding up financing, he stumbled onto "a whole new world about buying and selling companies I knew nothing about." With his interest piqued by the potential applications of mathematics to finance, Hendrickson landed a plum internship at investment firm John Nuveen, working at their private equity group in Irvine before transferring back to corporate headquarters in Chicago, making the transition to mergers and acquisitions. After the company was sold, Hendrickson received an alluring offer from New York-based firm Gerard/Klauer, and soon he was launching Klauer's Chicago office. Then the dotcom bubble burst in 2000 and Hendrickson came to a professional crossroads. "There just weren't a lot of deals getting done, so I decided, why not start my own company?," he says.
An avid guitarist since the age of 7, Hendrickson also had experimented with digital audio recording back in the late '80s, performed in a slew of indie rock bands (with names like the Hooligans and Swollen Heads) and eventually established his own boutique recording company called Big Think Studios. As an in-demand studio engineer, he began to explore cutting-edge guitar sounds for local indie bands. Inspired by guitar heroes like Jimi Hendrix, Eddie Van Halen, Jimmy Page and Steve Vai, Hendrickson sought to free other musicians to tap into their own unique "sonic fingerprint," pushing the boundaries of recorded guitar sounds through mechanics.
Coming up with the concept for the Jellifish in 1998, he did some "bread-board model" prototyping before realizing he just might be onto something that merited a U.S. patent. At first, Hendrickson thought he'd simply seek a licensing deal to get a steady stream of revenue that might have some resume value, or at least "enough royalties to pay for a new car every three years." The Jellifish started off as a "coffee-table tool for prospective clients to break the ice," but Hendrickson began getting a rush of positive feedback from music product companies. So he decided to make the leap out on his own rather than sign his prized product away. Now all he had to do was find the money.
To fund his start-up, Hendrickson had no choice but pull himself up by his Doc Martens, mortgaging his own condo, emptying his savings account, maxing out credit cards and recruiting two high school buddies as co-investors and founding partners: Ron Kovar, Jellifish's vice president of information systems, and Paul Bazan, the company's vice president of finance. As equal investors and full-time employees, this brotherly trio routinely clocks in 60- to 80-hour workweeks. They outsource the manufacturing to a Chicago-area company that uses state-of-the-art laser technology.
The venture requires Hendrickson to constantly learn new skills. For instance, Hendrickson, who had no previous experience with print advertising, now finds himself routinely placing full-page ads in such magazines
Guitar World
Guitar Player
. "Coming up with the very first ad was difficult, a definite challenge," he recalls. "I really agonized over those first ones." A lot was at stake: when Jellifish first launched, the firm was chiefly direct-response, using print ads to drive consumers to their Web site (www.jellifish.com) to purchase products. As a result, "Right out of the gate, we are able to track the effectiveness of each ad, each campaign, finding out what works, what doesn't. I was really able to hone my skills," he says, adding "I like learning new things all the time, and I enjoy the pressure and risks, as well as the satisfaction, of having my skills tested by the marketplace. If I do something wrong, we see an economic disadvantage, but if I do something right, then we immediately see our revenues spike."
Hendrickson gets satisfaction from seeing the real-world results of his efforts. "I really like seeing things play out on the ruthless battlefield of the market. I come up with new ideas all the time that might sound good in theory, but when you put them in practice, they don't always work out," admits Hendrickson, who gets a charge out of "putting the product out there and then seeing tens of thousands of customers using our product and enjoying it." He's able to monitor customer feedback firsthand when his posse regularly attends the network of consumer and trade shows around the nation to build buzz about his Jellifish brand. "I have celebrity guitarists who come up to me all the time and say, 'Hey, I used the Jellifish on my last acoustic album, and it sounded really cool,'" says Hendrickson, joking, "God knows I haven't cured cancer, but it's still cool to have all these people come up and share how our product has made them happier or inspired them. I also encounter more down-to-earth people who come up and say, 'Hey, I'm in a cover band, and when we play 'Hotel California,' now I don't have to bring my twelve-string to the gigs. I just use my Jellifish on my six-string guitar, and the audience doesn't know the difference!'"
Taking a cue from lessons learned during his undergrad days in Claremont, Hendrickson believes that "Pomona really teaches you how to think – it's such a challenging place that, if you can make it through Pomona, I think you've got the kind of tenacity it takes to be successful in your own start-up business." And while it may have taken four design generations, and as many months of R&D sessions, before Hendrickson's team was able to transform his original mechanical concept from raw prototype to mass-market product, when the first orders came rolling in, they weren't so much surprised by their instant success as "relieved that someone out there was willing to buy our products."
He needn't have worried, as Jellifish's potent sales figures spell exponential growth: his firm's first-year revenues totaled just $3,000 in 2002, exploding to $195,000 in 2003, and are on-track to generate nearly half a million in profit by end of this year. Not bad for a business that's still housed in Hendrickson's basement until he can secure multi-zoned office digs down the block.
His invention has attracted some big-name fans. A-list players counted among Jellifish users include electronica pioneer BT and a host of in-demand session musicians who've played on records from everyone including The Who, Pink Floyd, Iggy Pop, Seal, Siouxee and the Banshees, Psychedelic Furs and Nine Inch Nails.
Launching new product lines in 2005, Hendrickson hopes to tap deeper into the burgeoning music products market, estimated at $7 billion, with the guitar-accessories market at approximately $400 million annually. While Jellifish products were initially only available online, Hendrickson is reaching out to major retail chains to boost sales, including music-store powerhouses such as Sam Ash, The Guitar Store and Daddy's. Jellifish products are already distributed in 250 retailers across North America, and are branching out into international distributors in Australia, Indonesia and Ireland, with products being sold in 42 countries worldwide. The goal is to eventually phase out e-commerce altogether to concentrate on retail stores.
Building on the niche market he helped create, Hendrickson is slated to roll out additional Jellifish product lines next quarter, including his brand-spankin' new "Hot Rods," the first all-aluminum guitar bridge pins, as well as another as-yet-undisclosed music product his firm is currently in negotiations with a major guitar manufacturer to include in a "starter" acoustic guitar kit, inspiring a whole new crop of young Jeff Becks or Grant Greens in training.
For all his success, Hendrickson concedes that running his own business cuts into his personal life. "I've been told over the last three years that I'm not very good relationship material, but I think I had the same problem when I was an investment banker or a commercial diver," he says. "When you do things you're passionate about, and when you want to work as many hours as you can – " his voice trails off. "When I used to dive, I'd be out of town for weeks at a time, and when you're an investment banker, doing 100-hour weeks isn't uncommon. I don't think of myself as a workaholic, but other people might."
And as much as he enjoys Jellifish's swift rise, he calls his current gig the most stressful career he's ever had, simply because there is so much on the line. "I live or die by the cumulative decisions I make every day, and I have two other people's fate in my hands," he says.
To deal with the pressures of his daily grind, Hendrickson regularly blows off steam at the local gym and, more recently, he's gotten into – of all things – domesticating feral cats in his neighborhood. "I had one given to me by a friend, and it's now become another project," he says, laughing. "In my personal life, I guess I enjoy a challenge just as much in my professional life."

More food companies moving to gluten-free products
PHOENIX -- Frito-Lay is poised to launch a new set of gluten-free labels and snacks.
While the move is a big one for the company, it's not the first of its kind. Both Kraft Foods and General Mills have made similar moves. It's all part of a decade-long trend of consumers eating gluten-free.
Americans spent $2.64 billion on food products without gluten last year. That's up from $210 million in 2001.
"Large companies are starting to realize there is a large segment of the population that has to eat a gluten-free diet, or chooses to eat gluten-free," said Diana Lake, a member of the Celiac Disease Foundation's Greater Phoenix chapter.
People who have Celiac can't digest gluten properly, making gluten-free food a necessity. According to Lake, it is those people who have helped drive this recent gluten-free push.
"Often times, there is a family member that has to have a gluten-free diet. Sometimes people in that family say 'wow, we aren't really finding as many tasty products we'd like to find. Maybe we can make a better cookie, or cake mix, or pretzel, or whatever,' " said Lake.
According to Lake, a recent gluten-free expo saw 2,000 people attend with 50-55 vendors, most of them independent businesses. Four years ago, 350 people attended and there were only 25 vendors.
A big reason for that increase could also be attributed to the number of people going gluten-free by choice.
"It's a huge commitment to be gluten-free for the rest of your life, but those people [who go gluten-free by choice] are likely to stay on it," said Lake.

The Mt. Hood Community College (MHCC) District Board of Education and members of the Part-Time Faculty & Tutor Association (PFTA) have approved a new four-year agreement.
"We are pleased the bargaining sessions have been productive, with both groups working collaboratively and collegially toward an agreement," says Diane Noriega, Board chair. "I appreciate the hard work and attention put forth by Marilyn Pitts, PFTA president, and her bargaining team, and Ursula Irwin, associate vice president of Instruction, and her team."
Noriega adds, "Part-time faculty and tutors play an important role at MHCC. We value the many contributions they make each and every day to teach, tutor, mentor and guide students."
The agreement builds on the practices established in the prior contract to ensure that the college is able to attract and retain the best part-time faculty and tutors.
Pitts says the agreement "will improve the working life of MHCC's part-time faculty and tutors. I'm really pleased with the results of our negotiations. Both the college and PFTA's teams worked hard to get a reasonable contract."
The contract is retroactive to July 1, 2013. The previous contract covered the four years ending June 30, 2013.
Bargaining teams for the PFTA and the college held pre-negotiation discussions in November 2012 to find common ground and build relationships of trust and respect. This process helped establish a professional and friendly tone and course of action that permeated and defined the negotiations.

Looks like the bilderbergers gave paul a new assignment.
All this talk of secession is treason. I guess you people are cool with that. Are you also into owning slaves? Are you sure you won't end up getting owned this time?
WHy do you hate America? Is it because you listen to anything Charlie and David Koch have to say? Ron Paul clearly does.
Doug Diggler, you full of crap. Wanting to be free from the NWO means we want to own slaves? Is that what they train you govbots to say? You are the traitor.
Pretty obvious Doug Diggler didn't really listen or maybe the term should be hear RP's message! And he obviously doesn't know anything about Ron Paul the absolute Constitutional follower and believer in freedom and our countries sovereignty. You hit it on the head Anonymous post @ 12:55!
Please,please,please stop the succession and impeachment movement, it makes Republicans look ridiculous and does not contribute to the good of the country. Stop being Republicans, and start being statesmen sent to Washington to do the will of the people NOT the will of the party! If the ideals separating the parties cause problems for a majority of the population, it is going to be a problem for those who are fighting what the majority have voted for.

Feb. 5, 2004
UPDATE: University of New Mexico junior Matt Gonzales will travel to Indianapolis this Saturday, Feb. 7, to compete at the USA Cross Country Championships, where he will compete in a 4,000-meter race. The top six finishers in the 4K will be automatically selected for the USA national team, which will compete at the IAAF World Cross Country Championships in Brussels, Belgium in late March.
This will be the second national team trials competition for Gonzales. The Santa Fe native finished 11th in the 10,000 meters at the 2003 USA Track and Field Championships, just one week after earning All-America honors with his third place finish at the NCAA Outdoor Championships.
Gonzales also earned cross country All-America honors for New Mexico as a sophomore when he finished 30th at the 2001 NCAA Championships. He redshirted the 2003 cross country season and will return in 2004 as a senior.
America's finest cross country runners, including six-time returning women's long course champion Deena Kastor (formerly Drossin) and 1992 men's champion and American record holder at 3,000 and 5,000 meters, Bob Kennedy, will compete at the USA Cross Country Championships. The USA Championships follows the same format as the upcoming World Championships, with six races over a two-day span.
More than 400 athletes will compete in six championship races that will be conducted in Indianapolis. The top six finishers in the Senior (open/no age limit) and Junior (age 19 and under) competitions qualify for the U.S. team that will travel to Brussels for the World Championships. The circuit, located just northwest of downtown Indianapolis, features a spectator-friendly, international-style 2000-meter loop grass course.
Many of America's top distance runners are expected to compete, including defending men's 4 km champion Robert Gary and 2000 Olympians Abdi Abdirahman and Adam Goucher. On the women's side, Colleen De Reuck will challenge Kastor once again in the long course race, as will three-time NCAA 5000m champion Lauren Fleshman. 2002 World Cross Country Championships team member Mary Jayne Harrelson and 2003 U.S. runner-up and Word Cross Country Championships competitor Collette Liss are favorites in the women's 4 km race.
Past champions of the men's event include all-time greats such as seven-time champ Don Lash (1934-'40), four-time winner and 1972 Olympic marathon gold medalist Frank Shorter (1970-'73), three-time New York Marathon winner Alberto Salazar, eight-time U.S. cross country champ Pat Porter (1982-'89), two-time Olympian Bob Kennedy and 1996 Olympic Marathon Trials winner Bob Kempainen. At the 2000 Championships in Greensboro, N.C., Adam Goucher became the first and only man in history to win both the long and short course races at the same Championships. The 4 km competitions for senior men and women were added in 1998.

I made this for dinner tonight. Oh, my gosh! The lamb just fell off the bone. My husband said this is definitely company food. Even if someone didn't care for lamb, they would like this dish. I did use half of the vinegar & it was just the right amount. I served sauteed asparagus, red potato mashed potatoes & spinach salad with the shanks. The sauce from the meat was really good on the potatoes also. Next time, we decided, we will try this recipe with beef shanks.Edit 6/05: Made this recipe again.I realized that I left something out of my previous review. There was a lot of sauce left over so I put it on some pasta a couple of days later. It was absolutely delicious!
I thought the sauce was too sour with all the basalmic vinegar, lemons and red wine. I'd cut way back on the vinegar, and probably leave out the lemons the next time. Meat was great however.

This is a great recipe! A little brown sugar will also cut down the sourness. I found that this worked really well in a crock pot as well as the oven. I've also used diced leeks and zucchini on the bottom layer.
Thank you for posting this recipe! We made it for Christmas dinner this year with a few changes. We only used 2 shanks so we used the calculator to adjust the recipe and cut the vinegar down to 1/4 cup based on everyone's reviews here. We put everything in the dutch oven and put that in the oven at 350 for two hours, flipping the shanks after hour 1 just to make sure they didn't burn since we didn't have a lot of onion protecting the shanks from the bottom of the dutch oven. Served the shanks with Greek lemon garlic roasted potatoes that we found a recipe for at About.com's Greek food section, putting the potatoes in the bottom oven tray at the end of hour one and then taking both the shanks and the potatoes out at the end of hour two, ready to serve.
The sauce for the lamb shanks was amazing. We used a good wine and were not disappointed at all. I saved the leftover sauce for pasta (conchiglie) the next day and it was phenomenal. Will definitely make this recipe again. My dad, who was visiting, insisted on having a copy to take home so he could do it again too. We both felt that if this had been served to us at a restaurant we would have been happy to have paid top dollar for it. Even better to be able to say that we made it ourselves! Thank you.
This is so fantastic!! I loved not having to brown the shanks. I used about half the balsamic vinegar but would not change a thing otherwise!
This was absolutely amazing! I made it for dinner last night, followed everyone's advice and cut the vinegar by half. My husband was very impressed, and he loves lamb. I can not wait to make this recipe for company- it is simple to prepare and the end result is just superb. This one is definitely a keeper, and one that I will make over and over!
Made a wonderful valentines dinner! Based on other reviews I cut back on the balsamic vinegar. Served it with soft polenta - perfect match! I have set this recipe aside to use with company.
This was really good, and really easy! I didn't have tomatoes so I used tomatoe sauce and it still came out really good.

I used to play this game heavily back then. When my kid werent born. That must be 2 years ago or so. Ive gotten to lvl 117 then ive made a maniac(chainsaw) and got bored leveling all over again. Maniac is like lvl 100 and merc 70 LOL. This game got me addicted like no other game did. I didnt bought anything,werent top either. I think that nowadays you need to know that its impossible for you to be first. Because people will alwais buy gold with their money. No matter the game. Gold seller site that run farm bot are everywhere,on everygame. So knowing that,you need to find a game that you like to play with. Not to get high end stuff and boost your ego. But a game you enjoy playing. A game with a grind that doesnt feel like a grind at all. Sure you might get excite about reaching some level or getting some merc. But consider those as a goal. Something you'll reach someday. Fuck i miss this game. I think imma check if my character still exist and give this game another fair try.
I was on the Delphi server. If anyone want to friend or something feel free to PM me here and tell me your name or email. A game is alwais better with people around.
On a side note,i dont spend my paycheck on the game but like 15$ a month,for the blessing license. (dunn if those still exist tough). And never had problem at all. Sure other were stronger.Sure other was having an easier time. But ive never liked eays mode so,guess its part of the game. Left because i got bored lvling another toon + all the cash shop drama made half my guild quit so...thats it. I miss this game badly i guess. The gameplay is amazing.

Way to focused on the cash shop to be the right game for me. It's to bad because I really like the turn base combat.

well i don't know if anyone still replies on this forum but if you do. I need help really quick so hopefully someone replies sometime soon.
I've never played AO but I want to, I downloaded the game and made my account but when I press play it gives me a nexon thing and says instillation failed. I've tried probably over 9000times, and it's starting to really make me mad.
So if someone sees this please let me know what's going on. Thanks :D
My boyfriend and I have played this game since maybe a few months after launch. We've been at it so long we've been in 3 guilds as we both survived longer at daily playing than the guilds themselves we were members of existed.
We're both Staff Mains. He's lvl 130. I'm 129. Neither one of us are heavy PvPers although we do engage in PvP daily simply because you get extra TBS points for doing so. Neither of us is uber-geared. I'm definitely not as even my BF definitely out-classes me when it comes to gear. I'm in Division 5 (I think that's the lowest Division level someone my level - 129 - is permitted to go ) and my mercs are still wearing things like Divine and Freezing gear. Which compared to the cash shoppers is pretty pathetic. Despite that I actually manage to win about half the PvP battles I enter into.
A few of my miscellaneous observations.
For PvP there are 2 options.
Free League - which is what the game started with. It's still there truckin along same as always. Good gear definitely helps but even so - much to my surprise - I with my sucky equipped mercs have managed to win a fairly decent amount of the time. And I don't even like PvP (only reason I do it daily is to get those extra TBS points you earn by engaging in it - did I mention I LOVE AO's optional TBS boards? )
Coliseum League - a newer, separate PvP arena where gear and accessories, etc are zero effect on the battles. CL imo seems to rely on building a good merc team and a bit more strategic use of their inate attacks, skills, etc than what gear might be equipped. Imagine everyone set to level 100 with the exact same gear. It's sort of like that.
As far as cash shop yes...the game is completely reliant upon cash shop revenue to survive. There is NO subscription option available. Honestly I wish they'd have both options available as I've seen more and more games move toward. Example: for X amount per month you get X amount of points which can be used on anything in the cash shop.
Or one can just avoid Cash Shop altogether. It IS possible to play the game to a high level without ever using the cash shop.
If you do not use the cash shop for any help then I'd say do your best to PvE in a party in the later stages of the game. The enemy mobs are very powerful (imo) vis-a-vis even me and my BF. Be sure you become a member of an active guild. One that gives guild feasts regularly. Guild feasts are HUGE help in buffing up yourself and your mercs vis-a-vis the mobs. My BF and I have NEVER bought nor used the blessing licenses that are so popular with cash shoppers. Guild Feasts go a long way to negating the need for any kind of blessing license. Also...playing the game with at least one other person goes a long way to negating the need for a blessing license.
Also...once you finally get to it's level you can run Momotaro and reset it as needed. One of the quest rewards is a set of blessing potions which basically are blessing licenses in potion form. Combined with guild feasts and title buffs even a solo player has a shot at even the highest level mobs. Albeit what we do is find one mob (if they are our level or higher) who seems to be kind of far off from the rest of the group and fight that ONE rank. That also is a good strategy for a solo player.
One nice thing is that from what I can tell just about everything that's in the cash shop can be bought from other players in game as well. Albeit you'll have to put in grind time to get the in-game money to do so but it IS possible. Every mount my BF and I have (he has a Huge book full of 'em), every costume we own (ditto), even cash shop mercs - we got in-game with in-game money from other players. Unlike some other MMOs I've played costumes, accessories don't bind upon equipping so they can be freely auctioned off, set up your own sales stall or just set up for sale in the games general market. So that's three ways to sell your old stuff and make money.
The only thing I regularly buy from the cash shop is the 90 day auto-battle license. But even that has been lowered as a necessity as a patch (last year?) let you put all your mercs on auto-batle (or just some of them - you can pick and choose which ones you want to automate and which you still want manual control over). Or with the click of a button you can tell the game to automate all your mercs. So the auto-battle license now is mainly just to put yourself on auto-battle too. Sometimes it's a nice convenience I like but it's not necessary.
The health check license is useful for people who don't hire the canoneer merc. If you have a canoneer merc in your party (which I do) he has a skill which duplicates the health check license plus debuffs the mob you're facing to boot (something the health check license doesn't do). But even if you don't have either the mobs themselves visually show when they're close to death. They start to 'wilt' and droop right in front of you.
I know a lot of people hate cash shop games and sometimes I do understand where they're coming from. But on the other hand I remember these games are not charities. They must find some way to survive. No one likes to give their daily labor for free. We have a word for that - slavery.
In the end I do not really consider Atlantica Online a *bad* cash shop game. That is - the kind of MMO that gives advantages solely to the cash shop gamers and Never ever ever lets non-cash shoppers have the chance to aquire game advantage items as well. AO is mostly a proposition. If you don't want or simply can't spend money in the cash shop for things like the auto-battle license then you can grind for the in-game money to get them from other players instead (or learn to craft some of them). But to my knowledge I haven't found anything in the cash shop that's not also available at some point to non-cash shoppers.
The one thing I do not know is about the cash shop mercs. I think you can also get those in-game but at a very high price. Not sure about that though as I don't do cash shop mercs.
I do wish they would come out with new monsters. And the North American continent is ridiculously un-inhabited compared to most other places.
To the guy who was having problems installing the game I am sorry to hear that. Hope you found a solution.

Nice post i play now 5 months. and sofar i like it. Also play other online games like eve-online which i pay a yearley fee for.
But also 150 other games. Did play Legends of Mir II, but that game stopped.
I just became lvl 100 with one character and i must admit the prices for equipment are high. So lots of training centers now and lots of pve and I am not a pvp'er.
I was in a good guild till a character know as "Luna06" threw me out of the nation. Some people are just not King worthy material.
I am a new guild now and a like there too.
I play every day now.

Created: 01/28/2013 1:09 PM KSTP.com By: Jennie Olson
A Stearns County deputy won't faces criminal charges for using deadly force against a man last October. The Stearns County Attorney's Office found that Deputy Chad Meemken's use of deadly force against 28-year-old Marcus Michael Barshaw was justified.
Barshaw is accused of killing a man and leading police on a manhunt. He has been indicted for first degree premeditated murder and second degree intentional murder, and the grand jury also indicted him on both first and second degree assault.
According to the Stearns County Sheriff's Office, deputies responded to reports of a man with a gun on the 300 block of Broadway Street East in Rockville around 4:01 a.m. Sunday, Oct. 21, 2012.
While deputies were headed to the scene, authorities learned the suspect had shot a man and left the area. The shooting victim, identified as Jeffrey Schutz, 30, died just behind his home after his wife tried to give him CPR, authorities said.
Deputies later found the suspect, Barshaw, near an apartment building.
"Officers made verbal commands for him to drop the weapon," Stearns County Sheriff John Sanner told reporters shortly after noon. "He did not. He starts to point the weapon in the direction of the officers and at that time at least one officer shoots and strikes him."
Deputy Meemken was the one who shot and injured Barshaw. The attorney's office says Meemken's use of deadly force was justified to protect himself and other officers and to keep Barshaw from escaping.
If convicted of the Murder in the First Degree charge, Barshaw would serve a life sentence in prison without the possibility of parole.
