Huff-Po - Radley Balko: Militarizing Santa Claus
A couple years ago, I wrote a story about efforts by citizens in the town of Keane, New Hampshire, to block their city council from purchasing a DHS-funded BearCat armored personnel carrier from the Lenco company. One of the residents I interviewed was Dorrie O'Meara, who owns a laundromat, an apartment complex, and a Mexican restaurant in the town. O'Meara's reason for opposing the acquisition was simple, striking, and I thought pretty profound: "It's just not who we are."

About Us > Newsroom > Purchase and Development of Gove Middle School Property
March 23, 2012
National Jewish Health has completed demolition of the former Gove Middle School. Work continues on construction of an employee parking lot on the site with expected completion scheduled for mid-June.
The lot will include 462 parking spaces and site landscaping. Employees will access the lot on 13th and 14th streets at driveways generally aligned with Albion Street. This should minimize traffic on Ash Street. There will be a low-water use grassy area surrounded by existing trees on the northwest quadrant of the lot. This portion of the property will remain landscaped but otherwise undeveloped to accommodate a future National Jewish Health facility.
The parking lot area east of Albion will have islands planted with a mixture of grasses and trees and will be screened from the streets with greenery. More trees will be planted and missing trees will be replaced with new, healthy trees.
Along Ash Street, a 30-foot planted buffer will consist of low shrubs, ornamental trees, evergreens, and deciduous trees, creating a seasonal buffer. The southeast corner of the lot will serve as a detention pond for the site, and more trees and shrubs placed there will create a natural appearance.
"We are excited to create a space that will add value to the entire neighborhood," said Ron Berge, Chief Operations Officer at National Jewish Health. "This vacated building and empty lot will soon become an attractive, functional space."
Fences have been erected around unfenced portions of the site. For safety reasons, the public does not have access to the site during the demolition and construction period.
In the longer term, National Jewish Health intends to build on the Gove property to support its clinical, research, and education mission.
December 21, 2011
National Jewish Health has begun the demolition process for the Gove Middle School property. National Jewish Health purchased the shuttered school from Denver Public Schools in 2011.
After demolition of the building, National Jewish Health initially plans to construct a parking lot with 300+ spaces for its employees and perform some landscaping on the site.
Removal of asbestos was completed in early December 2011.
Fences have been erected around unfenced portions of the site. For safety reasons, the public will not have access to the site during the demolition and construction period.
Actual demolition of the building will begin on or about January 3, 2012, with completion expected in mid-March 2012.
National Jewish Health has contracted with Alpine Demolition and recycling LLC to remove the building. Activity on the site will occur from 7:00-7:30 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Friday. During that time trucks will enter the property from 14th Avenue and exit west on 13th Avenue. The existing Ash Street entrance is expected to be used infrequently.
Landscaping and construction of the parking lot will begin immediately after demolition finishes and is expected to be ready for use in May or June 2012.

Move Clears Way for Completion of Purchase by National Jewish Health
The Denver City Council on Monday, November 14, unanimously approved a request by National Jewish Health to rezone the former Gove Middle School property and the National Jewish Health Harrison Street property to hospital campus zones CMPH and CMPH2. This clears the way for completion of the purchase by National Jewish Health of the former Gove Middle School.
February 18, 2011
Denver Public Schools and National Jewish Health have agreed to contract terms for the sale of the Gove Middle School property at the southeast corner of Colorado Blvd. and 14th Avenue. National Jewish Health will pay $9 million for the property. The final purchase is contingent upon rezoning the property to accommodate potential expansion of the hospital facilities.
Read Denver Post article.
Why did National Jewish Health purchase the Gove Middle School property?
The Gove property offers an important opportunity for the long-term viability of National Jewish Health in Denver. Our growth in recent years has strained our existing facilities--nearly 150 employees moved to offices off campus last spring. The Gove property is contiguous with our existing 112-year-old campus, and presents an opportunity to expand our campus in an otherwise fully developed section of Denver.
In addition to our main health campus, we operate a clinical care network with 18 locations around Colorado including Englewood, Highlands Ranch, Broomfield, Aspen Valley, Vail and Glenwood Springs. We also provide inpatient care or outpatient physician services at Rose Medical Center, Swedish Medical Center, the University of Colorado Hospital, The Children's Hospital, Denver Health and the Colorado Acute Long Term Hospital.
What will National Jewish Health do with the Gove Middle School property?
With more than half our buildings more than 50 years old, we need to build replacement facilities. We also need to accommodate increased demand for patient care, which has experienced double-digit growth in each of the past four years.
Initially, we will demolish the existing school building and expand surface parking spaces for National Jewish Health employees. In the longer term, NJH intends to expand on the Gove property to support its clinical, research and education mission.
As we always have, we look forward to working with neighborhood associations, city government, and other interested parties to further our development in a manner that meets the needs of our patients and our academic and hospital partners, and is sensitive to the character of the surrounding neighborhood and business corridor.

New Guidelines Link Lifestyle to Cancer Survival
April 26, 2012 -- Cancer survivors who eat right, exercise regularly, and maintain a healthy weight improve their chances of survival, the American Cancer Society says.
In guidelines released today, the group affirmed the importance of following a healthy lifestyle following a cancer diagnosis.
The Society has long recommended these measures to prevent certain cancers, and officials say the evidence now shows that healthy lifestyle has a direct impact on cancer recurrence and survival.
Healthy Lifestyle = Better Cancer Outcomes
Nearly 12 million Americans, or 1 in 25 people, are cancer survivors, meaning that they have been diagnosed with the disease at some point in their lives.
For some time, proper nutrition and physical activity have been thought to play a role in surviving cancer. But this is the first time the American Cancer Society has issued formal guidelines for survivors, says Society Director of Nutrition and Physical Activity Colleen Doyle, MS, RD.
"Since our last report was published in 2006, more than 100 studies examining weight control, diet, and physical activity have been published," she tells WebMD.
The studies overwhelmingly suggest that eating a mostly plant-based diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding obesity can lower cancer recurrence risk and improve survival, she says.
After Surgery, Patient Becomes a Believer
Breast cancer survivor Crystal King worked out some, but not every day, and she was no fan of vegetables before her cancer diagnosis nearly a decade ago when she was in her mid-20s.
After her cancer surgery, King joined a gym, started running, and learned to love the healthy foods she previously only tolerated.
"My doctors believed these things would help reduce the chances that my cancer would come back, but at that point they couldn't really prove it," King tells WebMD.
Although most of the lifestyle studies have been in survivors of breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer, Doyle says it is likely that healthy lifestyle choices benefit survivors of other cancers as well.
The new report summarizes the scientific evidence on the impact of diet, exercise, and weight control on cancer recurrence and cancer death.

The season of spring brings many things to high school students: graduation, the senior prom, and unfortunately in too many communities, the tragic death of teenagers as a result of the deadly combination of youth and alcohol. As part of an effort to make students aware of the risks of drinking and driving, Biggs High School was the site of the "Every 15 Minutes" program. The program is named after the former statistical average that every 15 minutes in the United States a life is claimed as the result of drinking and driving. Since the program has started, that average is now around every 40 minutes. The program brought together a coalition of volunteers from law enforcement agencies, the fire department, the hospital, the mortuary and many others with the goal of reducing alcohol-related incidents among youth. The two-day Every 15 Minutes program is very dramatic and emotional-and purposely so. Teenagers are constantly reminded about the choices they have to make involving alcohol and how many others are affected by their decisions. They know the intellectual statistics. However, many teens share the belief it will never happen to them. Throughout the day, students were taken from class to participate in the "living dead"—a group of students who were kept overnight away from everyone else. On Wednesday, an accident was staged with demolished vehicles placed on Second Street in front of the Biggs High School campus. Students were dressed and made up to look as if they had sustained injuries in the accident. Emergency personnel arrived at the scene, with lights and sirens, while deputies from the Butte County Sheriff's Department and officers from the Gridley-Biggs Police Department arrested the student portraying a drunk driver as the rest of the student body watched. Firemen and paramedics cared for the "victims", while the grim reaper looked to claim his next target—followed by a line of the "living dead" behind him. As the student body watched, they witnessed their own peers being arrested, laying on the ground covered in blood, taken in an ambulance, and even put in a body bag and taken to the mortuary. The students who "died" or were in the living dead were kept away from everyone overnight, where they would participate in a variety of activities—one of which included writing a letter to loved ones as if they had really died. These emotional letters, read the following day at an assembly, discussed what the students wish they would have told their loved ones if they had the chance to. The day of the accident, a police officer was sent to the house of the victim to give his or her parents a mock death notification—a staged, yet emotional event. On Thursday, there was an assembly at which the "living dead" and their parents came out to read their "good-bye" letters. The parents of the victims gave a eulogy at the mock funeral for their children, followed by the emotional letters by the students who were "killed" in the accident. After they heard their parents' eulogies, Biggs' students Johnny Jackson and Chance Felkins read emotional letters to their families. This was a time of emotion and reality as many students and family members caught a glimpse of how close and painful death can be. Jill and Steve Elliot, of Orland, also came to the assembly as guest speakers. Jill told the crowd about her daughter Rachel, who graduated from Orland High School in 2007 before moving to Southern California to attend UC Irvine. Jill talked about how her daughter had participated in the Every 15 Minutes program her senior year and got to play the "victim". She spoke about how emotional it was to see the police vehicle pull up and knock on their door to give them a mock death notification. Jill said that although she was expecting the visit, it was one of the most emotional things she ever had to do. Eight months later, another police officer came to the Eliott's door to make another death notification—this time it was real. In February 2008, at the age of 18, Rachel was killed by a drunk driver in a head-on collision in Southern California.

Communications, Culture & Society
Women make over 80 percent of purchasing decisions in the U.S. and are primary consumers of a wide spectrum of products and services, but they are significantly underrepresented in the advertising and marketing fields. The advertising sector is overwhelmingly male-dominated and managers and account executives continue to rely on sexualized and objectified images in their marketing. Such campaigns can be harmful to women and girls in reinforcing stereotypes about consumer preferences and gender roles. Marketing to "tweens" (ages 8-12) and teens has added new psychological and economic pressures on girls to conform to unrealistic standards and increase consumption.

Tide receives message loud and clear
Published: Tuesday, November 20, 2012 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, November 20, 2012 at 12:19 a.m.
TUSCALOOSA | The first time the University of Alabama football team gathered after its loss to Texas A&M on Nov. 10, it was Nico Johnson, Chance Warmack and AJ McCarron who spoke up. The first time it gathered after the stunning upsets that placed the Crimson Tide squarely back into the national title hunt, Damion Square decided it was his turn.
Players spoke Monday about the message Square delivered when they took their Sunday run.
"We learned a valuable lesson Texas A&M week and we can easily lose another game and learn another lesson, which we're trying to avoid," said senior safety Robert Lester. "We had a leader (Square) step up and talk ... and let the guys know, 'Hey, Oregon and Kansas State, they learned a lesson that we learned the week before.' There are a lot of lessons to be learned in college football."
Oregon and Kansas State's losses have left the national championship door ajar for the Crimson Tide. Meanwhile, a 3-8 Auburn team without a conference win still stands between Alabama and a lesser prize, the SEC West title.
The sentiments of Square, a senior leader at defensive end, were echoed in media interviews Monday in regard to focusing on only the Auburn game.
Meanwhile, coach Nick Saban remarked on topics such as distractions and player stress and how they might affect on-field performance.
"Don't get emotionally stressed out or start playing to keep from getting beat and be tentative about your approach to what you're doing," Saban said. "I think it did happen to us and it probably happened to some other people. That's what we try to guard against. You've got to stay focused on the process of what you're doing right now."
To that extent, Saban likes players to filter out certain outside influences. On the outside, Las Vegas sportsbooks have handicapped the Tide as a 31-point favorite against Auburn this weekend. On the inside, the focus is on task. And veteran players attest to an Auburn series that is among its most physical on the Alabama schedule, regardless of outcome.
"I think Square said it the other day when we got through running, yesterday, Sunday: 'We can't overlook our opponent. Never,' " linebacker Nico Johnson said.

December 20, 2005
In their final meeting of the year on Monday, the Augusta commissioners made Howard Willis the city's permanent fire chief. You might remember last week they voted to remove the college education requirements for the job. And on a six-three vote commissioners fired Engineering Director Theresa Smith. Now some say both personnel decisions may mean lawsuits for the city. News 12 has the story.
As Augusta firefighters celebrate the appointment of Howard Willis as Fire Chief, one of the city's top departments is left without a leader after Engineering Director Theresa Smith was fired during Tuesday's commission meeting.
"She's done a great job, she's not perfect by no means," Marion Williams said.
Commissioner Marion Williams says the six commissioners who voted to fire Smith were out of line.
"If there's nothing written up on her and her evaluation is good, then how can you justify firing somebody who has a good evaluation every year?" Williams said.
But other commissioners say Smith's poor management skills, a fifty percent employee turnover in her department, and delays on major road projects were grounds for termination.
"I had worked with Theresa in the past on the greenspace program but once again that was not my decision yesterday. I can't take any joy in seeing someone lose a job at Christmas," Deke Copenhaver said.
Williams is now calling for Smith's supervisor, City Administrator Fred Russell, to also be fired.
"If you are going to fire somebody for not doing their job, their supervisor ought to be held accountable," Williams said.
"At this level you work at the pleasure of the commission. If six commissioners decided yesterday that I no longer needed to be here, I would have packed up my office and gone home," Russell said.
Russell had no comment on Ms. Smith's work performance and says he can't say exactly why she was fired.
"I think you need to ask those people individually who made that decision because I can only speculate," Russell said.
Though the city attorney says no, Commissioner Williams says yes, Theresa Smith does have grounds for and will file a wrongful termination lawsuit against the city. In addition, Commissioner Beard says lawsuits may also come from qualified fire chief applicants upset about the appointment of Howard Willis.
"There is a statement that Augusta is an equal opportunity employer," Beard said.
"People are going to do what they are going to do, we just got the business of the city done yesterday and any potential lawsuits will be handled by Steve Shepard, the city attorney," Mayor Copenhaver said.

STANFORD -- From the hot seat to the Sweet 16, Johnny Dawkins suddenly looks like a man in control.
Facing an ultimatum -- make the NCAA basketball tournament or get fired -- the Stanford coach responded by not only making the field but also pulling off back-to-back upsets to make the Cardinal one of the Cinderella teams of March Madness.
Dawkins insisted this week he never looked at the sword hanging over his head. And the players say they ignored it, too. But it's clear as Stanford prepares for Thursday's showdown against the University of Dayton that the Cardinal is rallying around a coach they love.
And those who know Dawkins best, going back to his days as an All-America guard, say it's another typically clutch performance from the man coach Mike Krzyzewski still calls, "the best player to ever play at Duke."
"I've known him for 30 years, and from the day I met him, there's never been one second I've doubted Johnny Dawkins, not one," said ESPN analyst Jay Bilas, who played alongside Dawkins with the Blue Devils.
"What people are maybe discovering about him now, I've known all along. It doesn't surprise me this has happened. He's brought that program along. Some people wanted it faster, I understand that. But there has never been a time he hasn't shouldered all the responsibility. Not once have I ever heard him put it on the players."
With a victory over the equally surprising University of Dayton (11th seed), the Cardinal (10th seed) would advance to the Elite Eight for the first time since 2001.
With another victory beyond that, Stanford would advance to the Final Four, something they've done just one other time since 1942.
Dawkins, the man who traded a pink slip for glass slippers, is in no hurry to celebrate. After the upset over powerhouse Kansas last Saturday, the coach urged his players to stay cool: "We're going to enjoy this," he told them. "But we're going to enjoy this at the end of the run."
Translation: You're not done yet.
In the least, Dawkins cleared the bar that was set a year ago when new athletic director Bernard Muir declared he would not tolerate another March disappointment. Dawkins' teams had been solid (94-74 record over his first five years) but developed a reputation for underachieving, for struggling at crunch time.
Before Dawkins' arrival, Stanford had reached the NCAAs 13 times in 14 years. It didn't happen once in Dawkins' first five years at the helm.
So on March 15, 2013, a day after Stanford was ousted in the first round of the Pac-12 tournament, Muir laid down the law: "The goal has always been and will not change: We want to play well into March on the grand stage of March Madness. Next year is a critical year for us. We've now had ample time for (Dawkins) to really get us to take that next step."
Dawkins, with an air of bemusement Monday, said that he was only vaguely aware of that proclamation, at least as it was reported. Whatever he gleaned, Dawkins said, he did so not by reading the papers but by reading his players' faces.
"You could just tell," the coach said. "They'll look a little worried about things. I'm like, 'Guys, don't pay any attention to any of that stuff. I don't.'
"I came here with full support. The people who have given me this opportunity have never wavered. ... Bernard's been great to me. I've never felt uncomfortable. I've never felt like I've ever had anything other than full support from the administration."
Josh Huestis, a forward and the team's leading rebounder and all-time shot blocker, said players never discussed their coach's fate. Then again, they didn't have to.
"Everybody knew the pressure facing him," Huestis said. "And therefore then it was on us. We were able to keep it all in check and not let it affect us."
So what changed? How did a coach in danger become one still standing in a tournament that has already ousted Krzyzewski, Jim Boeheim and Bill Self?
Dawkins said Monday that as part of his evolution as coach, he has learned how to maximize his roster. He has recognized that the key isn't making players fit into the system; it's fitting a system to the players.
"A lot of times you might want to do things as a coach, but your team is not built for that," Dawkins said.
That new flexibility is why Dawkins abandoned his beloved man-to-man defense Sunday for a rare dose of zone against Kansas. The goal was to neutralize Andrew Wiggins, a 6-foot-8 forward expected to be a top pick in the next NBA draft, and it turned out to be the key to the upset.
With Huestis and Powell sharing the task of guarding Wiggins on the wings, the Jayhawks offense often looked befuddled. Wiggins scored only four points. He managed only six shots.
Dawkins credited assistant coach Tim O'Toole for the defensive scheme. O'Toole learned nuances of the two-three zone while under Boeheim at Syracuse, so there were times in practice when Dawkins ceded the floor.
"I'm not a big believer in teaching things you don't know very well," Dawkins said. "We had a guy on staff who knew that type of zone inside and out. ... We were able to go out there and articulate that to our kids with confidence."
Dawkins and his staff had already overhauled his Xs and Os on offense, concluding after last season that Stanford operated best with a big lineup on the floor. Chasson Randle, at 6-foot-2 scorer, directs the offense but he's not a typical point guard -- so Stanford doesn't ask him to act like one.
Asked where Dawkins has influenced him most, Randle said, "My aggressiveness .... the sense of urgency you need to have." That response might come as a surprise to anyone fooled by Dawkins' otherwise laid-back demeanor. He is not a screamer on the sidelines. And he's practically guarded in public settings. If Dawkins seeks the spotlight, it's only on nights when things go badly, a ploy for taking the heat off his players. "He has a lot of belief in us," Powell said.
Tactically, Dawkins made some major changes this season. The Cardinal transitioned from a three-guard lineup to an alignment with three frontcourt players. Junior center Stefan Nastic was in, senior point guard Aaron Bright moved to the bench.
The goal was to be more physical, better defensively and more versatile on offense. It worked. The Cardinal averaged 73.5 points heading into the tournament (the highest mark of the Dawkins era). And with four starters 6-6 or taller, the defense allowed opponents to shoot just 42.3 percent.
Krzyzewski marveled Sunday as he watched Stanford break down Kansas' defense with minimal dribbling. The Cardinal simply passed the ball with purpose until it could create a point of attack. Krzyzewski thought it looked seamless and told Dawkins so himself when the two Duke icons chatted on his "Basketball and Beyond with Coach K" radio show Wednesday on Sirius XM.
"The thing that I see in your development ... is that it's yours. You're comfortable being you," Krzyzewski told Dawkins on the air. "I think your players see that."
Dawkins, part of a landmark recruiting class for Krzyzewski, was Duke's all-time leading scorer when he left in 1986 and that mark stood for 20 years until J.J. Redick surpassed him.
But Bilas said in a phone interview that one of his lasting memories of Dawkins came long before they reached campus.
"Before I went to college I took a trip to visit him in Washington D.C. He took me to play at a local playground. He was Superman. We won every game. This was back when if you lost, you sat," Bilas recalled.
"Finally, we lost. But at game point Johnny started arguing that something was wrong with the last possession and we needed to play it over again. It got pretty heated.
"I was from L.A. and I stayed out of it. He argued his way into a do-over and we won and kept the court. He wasn't going to let us lose. It was incredible."
All these years later, Dawkins is getting another do-over. Far from fired, he's still on the court, refusing to let his team lose.

Notable was the lack of "obligatory crowd cheer" during the silent break in Ghost, the (almost) silent segue between Frankie Sez and Ghost, and many more.
Roggae was the stand-out performance here, with the vocals and instrumentation both brilliantly executed. Taste is also worth noting as the finale is one of the best. Also, a closeup and personal view of the mechanics of Guyute is great for those of us usually in the cheap seats.
Best point: no Meat. Worst point(s): no Limb By Limb or Moma Dance

NATAL, Brazil -- Thirty seconds.
That is how long it took for U.S. captain Clint Dempsey and his plucky World Cup teammates to let the world know that they weren't afraid of this Group of Death, that they were going to attack their nemesis, Ghana, from the get-go and never give up.
Two thrilling surprise goals -- one just as the game began, one when it seemed the game was over -- gave the Americans a 2-1 win they desperately craved. They were not going to let Ghana beat them three World Cups in a row. Not a chance.
The piercing final stanza of the "Star Spangled Banner" -- " ... land of the freeeee and the home of the brave" -- still echoed through Arena Das Dunas on a balmy Monday night when Dempsey got the ball from Jermaine Jones, dribbled past a weak defensive challenge and slipped in a perfect finish past Ghana goalkeeper Adam Kwarasey in the 30th second of the match.
It was the fifth-fastest goal in World Cup history, and Ghana coach Akwasi Appiah referred to it as "a disaster for us."
Dempsey roared. U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann jumped up and down, arms to the sky, and the bench erupted into celebration, as did the estimated 20,000 Americans (including Vice President Joe Biden) in the stands. "We Believe We Can Win!" they chanted, over and over again.
And that they did, with an 86th-minute header from the unlikeliest of heroes -- substitute defender John Brooks, a 6-4 German-American who was on the roster bubble as of a few weeks ago. Brooks, it turns out, had a dream Saturday night that he scored a game-winning header off a corner in the 80th minute. He was six minutes off, but otherwise, his dream was eerily prescient.
"It was a great moment for me," Brooks said. "It's unbelievable. I had a dream that this happened, and I told my teammates... . After I scored, I fell to the ground and thanked God for this great moment. It couldn't be better. I've never had a dream like that before, but, hopefully, it won't be the last."
The United States can breathe a little easier now with a game against Portugal in Manaus on the horizon. Portugal, down a man for much of the match, lost 4-0 to Germany earlier Monday in their Group G opener.
Klinsmann was giddy afterward, running around on the field hugging players, including Alejandro Bedoya, who started in midfield, the culmination of a four-year-long quest after being the last cut of the 2010 team.
The coach said: "I said it to the bench a few minutes before (the Brooks' goal), 'We're going to get some chances still, we just have to grind it out, push and push.' We have a great spirit. The U.S. always fights to the last minute."
He said Dempsey's goal, while it got the game off to a firecracker of a start, in a way made the remainder of the game more challenging.
"You score after a minute, you think there can't be anything better than that, but in a way, it's not so good, because then we suddenly sat back a little instead of staying in control," Klinsmann said. "You think, 'Oh, we're up, we can stop attacking a little,' but I was yelling at them, 'Keep the line high! Keep the ball! We had problems getting passes connected and possessing the ball."
U.S. goalkeeper Tim Howard agreed: "It's human nature after you fight for a goal and get one that you drop off a little. There was so much of the game left, we wondered, can we keep the tempo going for so long?"
The Americans spent much of the rest of the game hanging back a bit and giving Ghana far more chances than they would have liked. Ghana outshot the United States 21-8. Andre Ayew scored in the 82nd minute, and it appeared the United States would have to settle for a tie.
That's when Brooks had his magical moment.
The victory came with a price.
Forward Jozy Altidore was carried off the game on a stretcher after crumpling to the ground while in full stride with a strained left hamstring in the 21st minute. He will have it scanned early Tuesday, and his return is questionable.
"I was sprinting and I felt something. We'll see what happens," Altidore said. "I was crushed."
Matt Besler, whom Brooks replaced, also tweaked a hamstring, but he is expected to be back for Portugal.
Dempsey also was injured, almost surely breaking his nose when he took a shin to the face. His nose bled heavily, and he went to the sideline, where they stuffed cotton into his nostrils. He returned a few minutes later but said he had trouble breathing the rest of the match and coughed up blood.
The captain said the win showed the team's character and never-say-die spirit.
"We didn't play our best game, but it's a huge three points," he said. "We ground out the result, showed a lot of character. We played our hearts out."
It was a rematch of the 2006 and 2010 World Cup games between these two teams, both of which Ghana won 2-1, sending the Americans packing from Germany and South Africa.
Odds now favor advancement; 39 of 46 teams that won openers in the last four World Cups reached the knockout rounds.

This application has not been the same since the rebranding. Very disappointed in Real Mac Software.
i downloaded this and running it with twitter and facebook for about 3 hours now, no crashing yet... im using the hud mostly and have it as an icon - i paid for it so no ads.
I bought the eventbox when it was pre 1.0. it was great and had tons of potential. unfortunately since becoming socialite it has not exploited that potential and has become very unstable.
I currently have a meantime between failure of about an hour, I get it crashing in the double figures every day and despite having sent plenty of crash reports there has not been a single stability update that i've seen; just authentication change updates.
I've given it a good long chance but am finally having to say goodbye. Hope I can give it another go sometime in the future once they sort out the persistent crashing.
It's a nice app, but too buggy and resource intensive. I've switched my feeds to Fever and my social networks to TweetDeck.
I love Socialite, but I have found it it seems to be fairly resource heavy when updating, locking up my computer. I've had to switch back to Tweetie but hopefully there will be some improvements in the future.
For me this has become my daily dashboard for social media: google reader, facebook and twitter. The app is stable, clean and easy to navigate.
My wishlist for the future: an in app browser and free addition of other social networks.
DEMO version connects to the social apps listed in the description. (Digg, Flikr, Faceboook, Twitter, and Google Reader RSS).
This app has a clean interface, and is easy to navigate. Runs without ads, and does not display adds that typically appear on Facebook (which I find GREAT, because those ads annoy me).
While it is convenient for all of the apps to be in one window, I have tried apps that also do this (freeware). Out of respect for the work of the developers of this app, you have to research and find those apps on your own).
Sad to say but since Realmac released the Beta Version it's not working at all. Tried to make it work since the release but keeps on crashing and loosing my Settings, it's ok since it's a beta but for now I had to switch to NetNewsWire for Feeds and take another look when it's out of beta (can't download Eventbox anymore :( ).
I got my EventBox as a giveaway from MacHeist and have used it to replace Twitterific. I think it's best in HUD mode, the standard window interface looks a little bland in comparison.
I read that EventBox has been purchased by Realmac Software. I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with it! Their other apps are very slick (LittleSnapper for example).
Since I have friends on various ones from Plurk to Twitter, I have to use either Ping.fm or hellotxt. Until an app comes out that directly supports either(preferably Ping.fm), I will just use Adium.

STOCKTON - A blind woman was waiting for a bus in the 200 block of East Iris Avenue about 1 p.m. Saturday when someone knocked her to the ground and stole her purse, police said.
The robber took the woman's leopard-print purse, a red wallet, a California ID, cash and a cellphone, police said. The 33-year-old victim is completely blind and was unable to provide a description of the robber, officers said. She believed the thief approached from the west and fled to the east.
RIPON - The Stanislaus Drug Enforcement Agency was called in to help process evidence Thursday, nearly a week after the Ripon Police Department seized more than $15,000 worth of marijuana from a home in the 800 block of Zumstein Drive, authorities said.
Kilo, the Police Department's new drug detection dog, helped officers locate over 50 pounds of marijuana, authorities said. Officers also found a THC extraction lab in a vehicle. Donald Smith, 25, was arrested on suspicion of manufacturing a controlled substance and possession of marijuana for sale, police said.
LATHROP - San Joaquin County sheriff's deputies were dispatched to a carwash in the 15000 block of Harlan Road about 12:10 a.m. Thursday on a report of a robbery.
The victim told authorities he was approached by a man who asked for a lighter. The robber then pulled a handgun out of his jacket and demanded the victim's money

Through two months of fierce digital democracy the Capita corps carried momentum from one head-to-head bout to the next leaving formidable foes like Nike, Smokin' and Thirtytwo in their wake. The week long finals against the enviro crusaders of Arbor was a media melee for the ages with 7878 votes cast to decide which team from Superpark 16 will be enjoying the spoils of Squid Roe while partaking in the first place prize of a trip for 5 to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

How can I setup PMS to hide the TRANSCODE folder, but still list files that need to be transcoded and just use the default (first listed) transcoder? Using the "Force transcoding" setting is not really acceptable because there is file extension overlap for what does/does not need transcoded. I have a Sony TV that's using BraviaHX.conf. I want my wife to be able to use PMS, but I can't expect her to know that some movies are hidden in the TRANSCODE folder.
I feel like I may be missing something because I've always had the "Hide TRANSCODE Folder" setting set for my PS3 and I don't ever remember movies being missing from folders.

I had who I thought was a friend over the other day. I hadn't seen him in a couple years. We hung out and was good. Invited him over again and this time he had his laptop and smartphone with him. He was trying to access my server to share files but the normal ways were not working. This was because I conveniently forgot the wireless password and my home server date was set back a year. His windows7 would not connect because of this (same prob with machine i have win7 on but fixed). I had ps3mediaserver running on my home server and he had ps3mediaserver on his laptop and he was able to access my files through it. So as you see he was really persistent. I did keep an eye on the screen and did not see him access any sensitive areas. My real concern now is my Windows Home Server Security Log shows him accessing the server as ANON/Anonymous or something like that for most of the evening. I saw his name as the Workstation being reported and assigned all these privileges. Did the ps3mediaserver put these in the logs or was he able to hack into my server during all this without my knowledge and possibly get all my saved tax returns and god knows what else? I found out he is closely associated with someone who has multiple arrests and the last 3 of them for identity fraud.
Thanks for any help.

SAN JOSE -- Two years after 15-year-old Sierra LaMar disappeared on her way to her school bus stop, District Attorney Jeff Rosen announced Monday he is seeking the death penalty against the man charged with kidnapping and killing her.
Despite ongoing volunteer searches through the creeks and fields of Morgan Hill, her body has never been found -- a fact that experts say could make a death penalty verdict difficult to obtain. At the same time, some are hoping that the specter of execution could persuade the 22-year-old suspect -- handyman and one-time grocery store clerk Antolin Garcia-Torres -- to finally lead investigators to her body.
This will be the first death-penalty case since Rosen took office in 2011.
"Given the facts of this case and after a comprehensive review by a committee of senior prosecutors, I have concluded that this defendant should face the ultimate penalty," Rosen said in a brief statement Monday.
Garcia-Torres' alleged history of attacking other women contributed to Rosen's decision, he said. After Garcia-Torres was charged in Sierra's disappearance, he was charged with attempting to kidnap and carjack three other women in separate instances four years earlier, when he worked at the Morgan Hill Safeway and allegedly preyed on the women in the parking lot.
After being indicted by a grand jury in February, Garcia-Torres pleaded not guilty to all the charges, including kidnapping and murdering Sierra. The Alternate Defender's Office, which is representing him, expressed disappointment in Rosen's decision, saying it is a missing person case, not a homicide. The case "does not appear to meet any objective criteria for seeking death nor do they appear to match in any manner the facts and circumstances of other cases in this county where the district attorney has sought death," the office said in a statement.
The LaMar family, however, supports Rosen's decision, Sierra's father, Steve LaMar, and cousin, Keith LaMar, said Monday.
"We're glad the DA has chosen to do the right thing," Keith LaMar said. "I don't personally feel society would be safe with someone like that back in it. "
Several members of the LaMar family either met with one of Rosen's deputies or joined a conference call about two or three weeks ago to discuss the death penalty possibility. All but one cousin, who was torn, supported the decision, he said.
Keith LaMar also said Rosen made it clear that pursuing the death penalty is not intended to be a bargaining chip to persuade Garcia-Torres to lead authorities to her body.
"Someone in the family asked, 'Would the DA use that -- is that one of the factors?' " Keith LaMar said. "Rosen responded, 'Absolutely not.'"
But Marc Klaas, founder of the KlaasKids Foundation, who has helped extensively with the ongoing search effort for Sierra, said Rosen's decision could put needed pressure on Garcia-Torres.
"It's obviously going to be a long, hard slog trying to get a jury to recommend execution when you don't have a body,'' said Klaas, whose own daughter, Polly, was kidnapped and killed in Petaluma in 1993. "But perhaps this individual understands now how serious the DA is and would be willing to make a deal to bring Sierra home."
Obtaining the death penalty without a victim's body is rare but not without precedent in Santa Clara County: Mark Christopher Crew is on death row for killing wife Nancy Jo Crew in 1982, where Crew and an accomplice chopped off his wife's head and stuffed her body into a 55-gallon drum filled with cement, but the remains were never found.
Sierra vanished March 16, 2012, as she was walking to the bus stop near her home in an unincorporated and rural farming area just north of Morgan Hill. Garcia-Torres' DNA was found on articles of Sierra's clothing found two days after she disappeared, folded in her Juicy-brand bag and tossed into a field near her home. Sierra's DNA was also found in the suspect's red Volkswagen Jetta.
Rosen's decision to pursue the death penalty against Garcia-Torres comes after declining to do so in six previous eligible cases.
But the lack of a body will present significant challenges, said Steven Clark, a criminal-defense attorney and former Santa Clara County prosecutor.
"There's a certain level of depravity that goes with a successful death-penalty case, where you can detail what the victim went through," Clark said. "The jurors are appalled by and decide that person should no longer be in society."
Even now, between 20 and 30 volunteer searchers continue to scour creeks, woods and fields throughout the South County every Saturday, looking for Sierra.
"As a family member who's lost someone, it's hard to describe," Steve LaMar said. "Holding out that hope is just something that you do."

Apple's Newest Hires: Dre and Jimmy
Apple's $3 billion deal for Beats Electronics gives it a music-streaming service and a maker of high-end headphones. It's also something of an acqui-hire: rap star Dr. Dre and music mogul Jimmy Iovine are joining the company.
Their titles: "Jimmy" and "Dre."
It's a full-time gig for Mr. Iovine, who is leaving his post as chairman of Vivendi's Interscope Records. Dre, whose real name is Andre Young, will continue to produce music but do "as much as it takes" for Apple. (No word on whether that includes creating and posting any Instagram videos.)
Mr. Iovine, an old friend of Apple founder Steve Jobs, has a long career as music producer, working with Bruce Springsteen, U2, Patti Smith and others. (Apple also had a relationship with U2 a decade ago, launching a red-and-black U2 branded iPod.)
Mr. Iovine's career as an executive has been distinguished largely by a savvy and inventive approach to marketing. In the years after online piracy began decimating music sales, Mr. Iovine began encouraging executives who worked for him at Interscope records to approach their roles more broadly. Instead of talent scouts, they were brand managers to a wide array of products: not just recordings but also clothing, electronics, and even beverages.
The "Beats By Dr. Dre" headphones is a successful version of that strategy, one that could make Mr. Iovine a valuable addition to Apple's executive roster.

Cash injection for Wilex
27.08.2012 - The German antibody specialist Wilex AG has completed a capital increase to strengthen its capital base. The biotech sold 6.5 million new shares at a price of €3.70.
However not all the shares were sold for cash. As contribution in kind, the company's largest shareholder Dievini Hopp BioTech Holding GmbH, the investment vehicle of the billionaire and SAP founder Dietmar Hopp, converted an existing loan granted to Wilex amounting to approximately €7.8m to 2.1 million new shares. This represents 32.5% of the total volume of the capital increase.This reduces Wilex' financial liabilities without adversely affecting cash reserves. Finally, Wilex receives gross proceeds of around €16.1m from the cash portion of the transaction. The company now owns about €24m in cash. Wilex runs a number of early and mid-stage clinical trials. However, the most important one is the phase III with the kidney cancer antibody Rencarex. Results for the test with the anti-EpCAM-mAb are anticipated for the end of this year. Rencarex is partnered with Prometheus Labs in the US.http://www.european-biotechnology-news.com/news/news/2012-03/cash-injection-for-wilex.html

Okay. If you're reading this that means you must have already received our new '96-'97 catalog. If you haven't, please contact our office. The response to it has been overwhelming. We want to thank all of you who have placed orders recently. Extra special thanks goes out to those of you had trouble getting through on the phone, yet persisted and placed orders anyway. The situation prompted us to install a new phone system with additional lines, as well as additional computers for order taking. It shouldn't be that hard to get through to us now.
Andy Duran leads a big mambo/Latin jazz band in Venezuela. Their latest release is Latin Jazz Club Latin Jazz Club. It has a nice swing and relaxed feel with Alfredo Naranjo on vibes. I like it as well as their first, A Jazzy Latin Beat.
Brazil: A Century of Song is the name of an immense compilation (4 CDs) on the Blue Jackel label. It is well thought out and broken into four parts: Folk & Traditional, Carnaval, Bossa Nova Era, and Música Popular Brasileira. As you know, Descarga doesn't carry many non-Caribbean titles. However, we were so impressed with this collection we couldn't turn it down.
Clave Tres, a band from Puerto Rico led by percussionist Raúl Berrios, has a nice new dance oriented Latin jazz release with folkloric elements. It's called From Africa To The Caribbean, Vol. 1 and is very well done.
One of Rafael Cortijo's best works is now on CD. Ahí Na Má! Put It There], from 1968, features Panamanian vocalist Camilo Azuquita.
The Essence All Stars, featuring Gato Barbieri, Steve Berrios, Andy Gonzalez, Bob James, Mike Mainieri, and Lenny White, have a new Latin jazz release entitled Afro Cubano Chant. This group of veterans has produced some gems here. Listen to the very beautiful "Tania" and see if you agree.
Afficionados of charanga are always looking for material by Gonzalo Fernandez. Bailarín is now on CD and features a 12-1/2 minute version of "Para Cochero" (here called "Yo No Camino Y Cochero").
Habana Secreta is one of the new releases on the Milan label. It features music composed by José María Vitier. Percussion by Tatá Güines and Miguel Angá. Vocalists include Silvio Rodriguez and Miriam Ramos.
One of my favorite Joe Bataan records is also now on CD. Riot! has several numbers now considered classic like the title cut as well as "Muñeca," "What Good Is A Castle," "My Cloud," and "Mambo de Bataan." Johnny Pacheco was the recording director on this release.
Those of you who have interest in the piano music of maestro Ernesto Lecuona must get The Complete Piano Music, Vol. 1 with Thomas Tirino on piano and the Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Michael Bartos. This is the first CD in what will eventually be a series of five. This comes with a nice liner booklet with notations.
A nice salsa debut is Louis George and The Salsa Gang. Louis George Jr. plays tres. Isidro Infante and Papo Pepín contribute their respective talents on this release.
John Santos and the Coro Folklórico Kindembo have a new folkloric Yoruban release entitled Hacia El Amor]. Special guests include Francisco Aguabella, Israel Cachao López, Orestes Vilato, Rebeca Mauleon and many others.
The Cuban percussionist Manteca had a release out in, I think, the early sixties entitled Ritmo Y Sabor. This was a rhythm section only release that had similar structure to the descargas of the 50s. In fact, the bassist on this recording may be Cachao, but we're not sure. (If anybody out there knows the lineup on this release please call.) We enjoyed listening to this reissue. It has some great grooves although it was obviously taken from an LP (like the classic Patato Y Totico reissue).
The outstanding contemporary Puerto Rican based plena dance band Plena Libre has a new release entitled Cógelo, Que Ahí te Vá!. Another plena band, New York based Pleneros de la 21, has what I think is one of the best releases of the year. Somos Boricuas is authentic, musically rich, and danceable. This one is a must get.
In the 50s and 60s Yma Sumac popularized Incan ceremonial and spiritual songs. Her vocalizations created somewhat of a sensation which appealed to those intrigued by the "exotica." We recently received five reissues from the height of her popularity. Pictured here is the Legend of the Jivaro.
You want some heat, you say? Check out trumpeter Jesus Alemañy's Cubanismo! featuring Alfredo Rodríguez on piano, Carlos Del Puerto on bass, Miguel Anga Diaz and Tatá Güines on percussion, as well as a host of other superlative musicians on this smoker. I highly recommend this release.
We listed The Montuno Sessions in the last issue of the newsletter but it arrived too late to be pictured. These were jam sessions recorded live on the air from Al Angeloro's radio show in the eighties. Featured guests are Charlie Palmieri, Henry Fiol, the Wayne Gorbea All Stars, Charanson and others.
One gorgeous debut release is from New York percussionist Johnny Almendra y Los Jovenes del Barrio. Entitled Evolucionando, this CD encompasses a range of Afro-Cuban styles: comparsa to guaracha to R&B son to cha cha cha and descarga. All are done with finesse. Some special guests include Ronnie Baro, Giovanni Hidalgo, and Dave Chamberlain.
We recently received a shipment of new Cuban material from the Magic Music label. Two of them are Lucrecia's Prohibido, and David Calzado y La Charanga Habanera's 'Pa Que Se Entere la Habana. These seem to go fast, so get your orders in while they last.
Two last minute CDs of note. Mauricio Smith, the highly regarded flautist who can be heard on many, many recordings, has a solo project out entitled Madera. It is a Latin jazz release with a sweet sound revolving, of course, around Smith's flute playing. In addition, we have a terrific reissue of the '72 Willie Rosario release entitled Más Ritmo with Chamaco Rivera on vocals and coro by Yayo El Indio and Adalberto Santiago. This is a great salsa release beginning with "En Bayamon" and ending with "Pan Con Mantequilla." Everything in between is just as good.
In closing, I'll tell you of some important new video releases. Somos Un Solo Pueblo is a remarkable video documenting a major concert held in Puerto Rico last year. It was funded by Banco Popular and brought out some major attractions like Ruben Blades, Gloria Estefan, Celia Cruz, La India, Cachao,Gilberto Santa Rosa, and Giovanni Hidalgo. There's also a CD release of this concert for audiophiles.
DCI Video is at it again with quality instructional material. New York percussionist Bobby Sanabria (leader of Acensión) has released Getting Started On Congas: Conga Basics. This is an entry-level video for future conga virtuosos. Bobby is one of the most articulate musicians playing today and this video proves it. Look for two additional volumes entitled Conga Fundamental Parts 1 & 2 with special guests like Candido. DCI has also produced a video corresponding to their best selling Funkifying The Clave: Afro Cuban Grooves for Bass and Drums book/CD package. This bi-lingual 90 minute video features Lincoln Goines and Robby Ameen demonstrating the following: Clave and Tumbao, Songo, Guaguancó, Afro-Cuban 6/8, Cha-Cha-Cha, and Mozambique.
Finally, Dancing Hands Music has released Conga Drumming: A Beginner's Video Guide featuring Jorge Bermudez with special appearances by Raul Rekow of Santana and Rosie Lopez Moré from the legendary Tropicana nightclub in Havana.

MARIETTA - A handful of area proms are slated for this weekend and area businesses are already feeling the effects.
The steady stream of tuxedo fittings at the Workingman's Store in Marietta has kept owner David Schramm and his employees constantly busy, he said.
"Prom is, for us, at least half of our formal wear rentals for the entire year, so it's a big deal," said Schramm.
The prom tuxedo season stretches from early March until late May, but Wednesday was probably the store's busiest tuxedo rental day of the year.
"It's made it a little hectic this year," he said.
To handle the crunch, Schramm has a select group of well-trained employees that handle the tuxedo fittings.
Generally the cut-off date for renting a tuxedo is the Tuesday before prom, but Schramm noted that the store has a few extra tuxedos on hand for the last minute renters.
Though area restaurants will not feel the full impact of prom until Saturday, those at Da Vinci's Italian Restaurant in Williamstown can already tell it is going to be a doozy, said Manager Chris Bender.
"We've already had proms for the past two weekends and last weekend we were absolutely crushed. I mean it was great, but it was busy," said Bender.
The restaurant tackles the events like other big holidays, such as Mother's Day and New Year's Eve; however, they do try to make sure they have plenty of non-alcoholic drink options available to prom-goers.
"It's a big night and they like to maybe have something special so we have sparkling juice or non-alcoholic drinks with the little umbrella," she said.
Prom also generates business in a less direct way, noted Bender.
"Just our regular everyday customers like to come out on prom night to see the kids all dressed up in their fancy attire," she said.
The restaurant takes reservations for parties of eight or more and already has several for this weekend. In addition, they will be catering a prom dinner for a group of high school students that wanted to eat at home, she said.
Marietta business owner Cheryl Lang plans on burning the midnight oil Friday night in preparation for the big day as she and the staff at Front Street's A Unique Flower & Gift Shop finish whipping up a frenzy of corsages and boutineers for Saturday.
"I would say this year's prom season, we're probably doing double what we've normally done," said Lang.
In addition, students are mixing it up more this year, choosing decorative bracelets for their corsages and decking them out with bling and other accents, said Lang.
Though prom is not the shop's busiest time of year, it is definitely a nice addition, she added.
"I greatly appreciate people coming to us and entrusting us with this special night," she said.
Since opening in August, this will be the first prom season for Beverly restaurant The Cornerstone Inn.
Though those at the restaurant have not made big plans for this year's proms, they hope to spread the word for next year's event, said Carolyn Plummer, who co-owns the business with brother Daniel Schaad.
"I would love to cater to it. I think prom students would really like our atmosphere. We've got a really lovely room with a piano and a way to lower the lighting," said Plummer.
The business has already hosted several wedding rehearsal dinners, so prom seems like a natural evolution, she said.
"Definitely next year I want to reach out to the schools and do something," she said.

5 Makeup and Hair Tips From the Runway
Taking a fashion risk, the edgy yet stunning look Miley rocked consisted of a plunging black Emilio Pucci floor-length gown, Edie Parker clutch, and Lorraine Schwartz jewels.
The "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" singer wowed us when she showed up in a pantsuit rather than a sparkly getup. She looked sophisticated-chic in the sleek white J. Mendel pantsuit she wore, and paired it perfectly with eye-catching Ofira earrings, and a Lorraine Schwartz ring. Oh, and let's not forget the most important accessory: classic red lips.
