August 17, 2011
Audience at the 2011 National HIV Prevention Conference.
This article was cross-posted from the AIDS.gov blog.
This is the third in our series of daily re-caps from the National HIV Prevention Conference underway now in Atlanta. This re-cap spotlights activities from Tuesday, August 16.
Tuesday's plenary session addressed the National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS) goal of improving access to care, focusing on three important approaches that can help us reach that goal: adopting universal HIV testing, measuring community viral load, and implementing test and treat programs. My colleague Dr. Deborah Parham Hopson, Associate Administrator, HIV/AIDS Bureau at the Health Resources and Services Administration, moderated the session, which was structured as a series of brief, spirited debates between physicians examining the pros and cons of each of these approaches.
The conference agenda was packed with dozens of informative sessions. Highlights of some of the sessions my team and I participated in include the following.
Bringing HIV Prevention Programs to College-Age Minority Students: The Minority-Serving Institutions HIV Prevention Sustainability Demonstration -- This session provided highlights from the first year of a three-year demonstration project, supported by the Secretary's Minority AIDS Initiative Fund, designed to build capacity for and sustain HIV prevention and sexual health programs on the campuses of minority-serving institutions of higher education. Representatives from three of the participating institutions -- Dine College (a Tribal College), Florida International University (a Hispanic-Serving Institution), and North Carolina Central University (a Historically Black University) -- shared insights about the lessons, opportunities and barriers they have encountered. Among the lessons were the importance of strategies to secure the buy-in and support of the institution's leadership and the importance of ensuring that the interventions selectedfrom use of peer educators to social marketing campaignsare culturally competent and that the messages are culturally relevant.
Testing Makes Us Stronger Campaign
African American Gay and Bisexual Men -- In another of yesterday's sessions, CDC's HIV prevention communications team discussed their efforts to develop an HIV testing campaign for Black gay and bisexual men. Later in the day, the campaign was launched at an event attended by many who advised during the campaign's development. The new campaign, "Testing Makes Us Stronger," is the result of extensive formative research that included a panel of community advisors and an in-depth concept and message development process that involved input from more than 400 Black men in five U.S. cities. Members of the target audience were consulted on their recommendations about the best placements for the resulting online and print materials. The campaign will roll out nationally and in selected cities beginning in September. Watch www.actagainstaids.org for details. The urgent need for this targeted campaign was brought into even sharper focus by the new estimates of annual HIV infections in the U.S. released by the CDC earlier this month.
Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders and the National HIV/AIDS Strategy -- This session highlighted the importance of improved data collection and HIV surveillance data within the Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (AA&NHPI) communities. Local jurisdictions use the race and ethnicity categories for AA&NHPI in different ways, which impacts the availability of HIV prevention resources for these communities. Presenters recommended that all jurisdictions use the new HHS draft standards for collecting and reporting data on race, ethnicity, sex, primary language and disability status. Panelists also expressed concern that the lack of data distinguishing foreign-born versus U.S.-born AA&NHPIs makes it difficult to appropriately tailor prevention and treatment interventions. Strengthening the quality of data about these populations will enable us to address existing disparities in HIV testing rates and linkage to care.
The Strategy and Hispanic/Latino Communities -- Another session explored "Why NHAS Matters for the Hispanic/Latino Communities." Panelists observed that HIV has a disproportionate impact on the fastest-growing ethnic minority group in the U.S.; a disparity that is exacerbated by factors including the lack of access to health care, language barriers, and immigration status. However, Mr. James Albino of the White House Office of National AIDS Policy (ONAP), Mr. Guillermo Chacón of the Latino Commission on AIDS, and other panelists noted that the Strategy holds significant promise for addressing these disparities and even more promise when coupled with the implementation of the Affordable Care Act which will expand insurance coverage for uninsured and underinsured populations in the country. The panelists noted that the community will need to work to leverage these opportunities and that this will include efforts to engage the business community and other allies to support the Strategy's goals.
HHS Listening Session About Implementation of the National HIV/AIDS Strategy -- Yesterday afternoon I participated in a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) listening session about the NHAS. During this session, senior HHS leadership heard from more than 30 conference participants who shared their ideas, suggestions, and requests for more information about progress in implementing the NHAS. Joining me at this listening session were: Mr. Jeffrey Crowley, Director of the White House Office of National AIDS Policy; Mr. Chris Collins of the Coalition for a National AIDS Strategy and Vice President for Public Policy at amfAR; Ms. Marlene McNeese, Chief of Houston's Bureau of HIV/STD Prevention; Mr. Christopher Bates, Deputy Director of the HHS Office of HIV/AIDS Policy (OHAP); Dr. Kevin Fenton, Director of CDC's National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention; Dr. Deborah Parham Hopson, Associate Administrator, HIV/AIDS Bureau, Health Resources and Services Administration; and Dr. Gretchen Stiers, HIV/AIDS Policy Lead at the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. Among the comments that we heard were:
We appreciated the important comments shared, as they demonstrate the passion and energy of the many partners who truly want to achieve the vision of the NHAS.
Elsewhere at the conference on Tuesday, the AIDS.gov team continued its collaboration with CDC to provide technical assistance in the conference's social media lab. In addition to providing one-on-one technical assistance, CDC and AIDS.gov team members offered special workshops on usability, accessibility, and developing a new media strategy. Based on their three days of technical assistance at the conference, the team compiled a list of many of the questions they received and their responses.
Dr. Andrew Forsyth, Senior Science Advisor and the newest member of the OHAP staff, presented on a panel where he previewed HHS' plans to develop a streamlined set of HIV/AIDS metrics that will be used across HHS HIV/AIDS programs.
Tune in tomorrow for our final daily conference wrap.
Ronald Valdiserri, M.D., M.P.H., is the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Health, Infectious Diseases, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. (Cross-posted from White House Office of National AIDS Policy Blog.)

text: A funny story about this guitar: I perfomed at the Healdsburg Guitar Festival the weekend of August 14, about two weeks after I bought the guitar, and ran into a friend, a luthier named Tom Ribbecke who builds wonderful archtops, and showed him the guitar. As we were talking, another luthier, Ralph Novak, walked up to take a look. Ralph is a collector of vintage "House Brand" instruments and quite an authority on the subject. He picked the guitar up and looked it over, telling me most of the information I have printed above concerning the instrument's origin. He turned to Tom and thinking to make a funny, cracked "Now you could learn something about tone from this guitar..." and strummed it. He looked surprised and said, "Wow! This sounds pretty good!" He continued to play it and told me I got a real bargain for the $200 I paid for it.

Steve Wynn reflected on his friendship with his Wharton roommate, shoe designer Stuart Weitzman, at the Footwear News Awards at MoMA on Wednesday night. "In college, Stuart told me he would spend his life making women happy — who knew he was talking about shoes?!" the hotelier said about Weitzman, who received a Lifetime Achievement Award at the gala. Weitzman was also celebrated by Beyoncé via a video message, in which the singer said she's danced 1,000 miles "in his beautiful shoes," over years of performing. Weitzman and Wynn capped off the night with dinner at Jean-Georges with a few other college buddies.

Press Release:
Until recently, managers and property owners in western democracies took it easy in matters of safety, security, and emergency management, economizing in the process. Following 9/11 and its aftermath, they can no longer afford this luxury. Business is "not" run as usual. A scramble to correct the situation leads many to adopt stop-gap measures, appointing only a limited number of managers and employees to provide some sort of safety measure, resulting in dangerous and misleading assumptions of effective organization and control. Incomplete planning and organization can cost many lives and lead to business loss.
Vancouver, B.C. December 26 2003--Managing emergencies and
providing safety and security to guests, customers, employees, owners,
and the property itself, requires informed and thorough planning
and organization across the board, with the active involvement of
all departments and employees. This responsibility cannot be relegated
to only a few people in the organization. And these subjects cannot
be considered as a "separate" field, but become an integral part
of all operational functions.

The aluminum versions are about half the price of the Feisol. Regarding center columns, it's my opinion that they're a useless feature that reduces stability and adds weight.

Sienna Miller may be the star of Factory Girl, but who isn't just as excited to see the spot-on recreations of Edie Sedgwick's signature style? Top shoe designer Taryn Rose took on the challenge of designing the film's shoes and purses — she tells PEOPLE that she "looked at old photos mainly [for inspiration]." And as for Sienna, "I made these ballerinas for a scene that she loved. They were plain black, because she was wearing black tights." Sadly the exact styles from the film aren't for sale, but Taryn's spring line is chockful of mod-inspired flats like the Bonus, $380, and the Baker, $445, which are for sale at piperlime.com. But be warned that the shoes are in high demand — Taryn also designed a film-inspired red carpet collection "but no one got to wear them. One hundred fifty pairs were stolen off the truck when they were being transported."

|I'd like to thank Al Borges
I'd like to thank Al Borges for his first year, when he took control of a team whose offensive scheme was radically different than anything he'd ever run before and yet the offense ended the year with higher red zone efficiency and other metrics than RR ever managed.
I'd like to thank Al Borges for his second year, when despite all those designed QB runs finally catching up with Denard, defenses finally figuring out his arm was nothing to fear, and who knows what in terms of injuries (the pinched nerve, possible knee issue, etc) all leading to the sudden transition of Devin from WR to QB, we came close to beating a 10 win SEC outfit in a bowl game.
I'd like to thank Al Borges for the fact that we're going to a bowl these year and as bad as the offense is, I've seen worse from other offensive transitions in recent memory. As bad as the line situation is this year, I've seen offensive geniuses shit the bed to much worse degrees than this year. No one we've lost to has more than two loses and they have 5 loses total. The moments of futility suck, but so did offensive line recruiting for awhile and one of our higher ranked gets is currently a nose tackle because defensive line recruiting also sucked.

|One of the things seems to be
One of the things seems to be he doesn't keep any kind of momentum after he beats that first block. He crushes right through the line and then he's just kind of standing there, trying to find the ball, and once he figures out that the ball carrier is headed for the edge he has to get his body back up to speed. Better vision will let him come crashing through at full speed instead of needing to pause and figure out what is going on. Lots of wasted steps there, which in some instances comes close to letting the offensive linemen pick him back up.

|The offending thing is
The offending thing is actually something I've been pondering for awhil and it does present a problem. Least we forget, Tuley-Tillman has very displeased when a blog called him raw and basically failed to declare him the next coming of Long and Lewan.
This blog has always excelled because when recruits are covered, attempts are made to break down their game film and critique their play. Things are said like "Likely won't start until their junior at the earliest, very raw.", "Likely to be passed from behind unless he works his ass off", and other such things. If the content is going to target kids who are 15 and not used to hitting the camps and being critiqued in a such manner, we're going to tie our hands in the future in terms of analysis. Last year it was unhappiness over being called raw, this year it was being young looking, and perhaps next year someone will mad when Ace says he doesn't have the world's greatest hands and is prone to dropping balls. You're always going to have to recruits who don't like the grading they get, but at least the older ones should in theory have gotten used to it after hitting those camps and talking to coaches on their officials.
We have an admittedly small sample size here, but so far the trend line has started out in an extremely poor direction to say the least. We're not the kind of blog prone to mindlessly hailing fluff pieces, because if we were we'd all be watching Sports Center rather than hanging out here.

A fair number of folks in college get some or all of their college paid for with scholarships and cash a paycheck beyond that. A fair number of engineering grad students are in the same boat, tuition waiver and some kind of grant or hook up with a company that results in a stipend. I see no reason that a football player shouldn't be able to do the same. Just because a small percentage of them will go on to become wealthly in the pros is no reason to deny them money. By that logic we should go stick it harder to the Business School types since they might end up with Stephen J Ross kinds of money.
In terms of wealth on hand, I had a significantly better deal in that I went to class and cashed a check for my work. A football player goes to class, has 20 hours of official practice with the coaching staff, more voluntary practice or film study with their teammates, which is supposed to average out to around 44.8 hours per week, and they don't even get a stipend for walking around money. Heck if they chose to stay in school rather than go pro early, their wallets take a hit because they have to buy injury insurance with their own money like Lewan did.
There are a lot of services FBS programs could offer their students beside just handing them the cash (and half a million per head doesn't seem defensible) such as a living stipdent, program provided insurance for career ending injuries, a free grad degree as well as 4 years of undergrad, a trust fund of some sort, etc. Right now though players do get screwed considering the revenue stream they bring in.

|As I said, ask the kid to
As I said, ask the kid to pass a request along to the parents in your first contact package. Alternatively if directly contacting the kids is seen as unacceptable, every school in America has a public phone number and someone who answers the phone during the school day. Leave the coach a voicemail and ask him to pass it on to the parents.
In a lot of cases you don't even need to go that far, as a fair amount of the higher star ranked prospects have a Twitter or Youtube account dedicated to recruiting, which one assumes an adult is at least aware of, if not checking. Hit up that account, speak briefly with a parent, and move forward.
Again the issue comes down to the fact that Brown's standard workflow does not included "Speak with a parent or gaurdian" as a step before interviewing a 16 year old.
Which forms of social media are used and how you use them is something that is still up in the air, as some new social network comes out every six months it seems, but changes in the mechanics of contact doesn't at all influence the issue that sooner or later a parent is not going to be happy and the fact Brown doesn't attempt to speak to them as a matter of course only increases the odds of it happening sooner and more frequently.

|I'm gonna go register
I'm gonna go register ChiTownMaize just to thwart him.
|09/25/2013 - 12:30am
|I do actually.
It's all right here. He clearly states he has not talked with a parent or coach for every interview, which in turn means that speaking with the parents is not part of the standard contact package. As for his contact method, @BBrown has a clear history of sending out Tweets in the form of "Hey X, follow back", which in turn is designed to allow for private direct messaging. No additional context is provided by Brown in the initial contact.
|09/25/2013 - 12:12am
|One area that the board is
One area that the board is clearly going to be divided on are the ethics of not talking to the parents in all this. I've made my view clear upthread, so clearly have a bias in favor of contacting the parents. That said, from a pragmatic viewpoint:
Let's say I'm a high schooler and I'm interview. Now I live with my mother in Michigan and my father lives in Hawaii since they divorced. I do an interview, my mother doesn't really mind, but my dad finds out and absolutely flips his lid. Maybe he does it purely out of a cynical ploy for usage in a custody battle or some other reason, at the end of the day it will still be MGoBlog didn't ask and at least one parent is pissed off and no parent approved since no one was asked. Ethics of interviewing minors aside, there is a certain cover your ass aspect of at least attempting to get approval from one parent. Better to beg forgiveness than ask permission is not always true.
|09/24/2013 - 11:56pm
|This is really what it boils
This is really what it boils down to. Print journalism ethics first begins with question why you must interview minors. Clearly in this case, because they are potential Michigan recruits. Secondly you determine if parental (or gaurdian) consent is needed. If you determine it is not, you should leave contact information with the minor so his parents can contact you if they later object to the interview being used. I'd say that is pretty standard.
So in this day and age, personally I strongly disagree with Brown's method of going from contact to publication. There is no reason why the initial contact could not also include "Also, I want to clear it with your parents, my email is [email protected]." Clearly of course the kid could set up a fake email and impersonate his parents, but at least there is more of an effort to be upfront and reach out to the parents there. Here of course we enter into a slippery slope in that how much due diligence Brown has to do. The core issue though is right now he is doing nothing.
At the end of the day, tweeting kids "Hello X, follow me back" seemingly out of the blue* and dropping interviews on 16 year olds strikes me as extremely low professional standards and I'll post negative comments about it. One of the first things you normally learn in the professional world is just because you are on social media, doesn't meant professional standards are thrown out.
Ultimately that is going to happen is Brown is going to run an article and some parent is going to be pissed the fuck off by it and when that happens, if Brian thought the AD was on his ass before, he's going to wake up and find the Athletic Department so far up his ass, Dominos is opening a branch in his colon.
*There also does seem to be an element of hypocrisy here, what did Kyle Kalis and Tuley-Tillman teach us? Don't tweet recruits. Yet now a business function of the blog is doing it via a personal twitter account and lacking any sort of formal letterhead...no thank you.

|The industry is undoubtably
The industry is undoubtably grimey, but just because MGoBlog does partake in elements of the industry doesn't mean people can't express concerns about the level at which the blog partakes in this industry. Scout, Rivals, etc do a lot of things that MGoBlog choses not to do and I don't see the issue with people on the blog expressing concern about how deep into that industry the blog staff dives.
After all, it was called the MGoCreeper Van because when TomVH started out, lots of people jokingly expressed concern about a dude driving around to various high school games for the express purpose of posting footage on the internet. Moving forward with hudl pages and all that the game has changed. That being said, it is still an ongoing discussion. Both posters and staff comment negatively on some of the offers made to 8 year olds by coaches, so it stands to reason different people would have different thresholds for where that age cut off is.

I can confirm this is correct, a large portion of the wing on the Dental School was marked as no access when I did my orientation for Marine ROTC. However the Marines showed that area and the massive cracks because "Marines aren't pussies like those squids." Also the University never really repaired it beyond taking it to a point it wasn't condemned. Circa 2007 or so the patchwork as still visible in a number of classrooms and a couple of new cracks were coming along quite nicely.
It's ashame because the building has a lot of history, but its time has clearly come.

|09/22/2013 - 12:52am
|Ultimately at the start of
Ultimately at the start of the season, most of the 'experts' were calling us an 8 or 9 win team this year due to our youth and right now the fanbase is being reminded of that. The play where Chesson failed to dominate the tiny little sub 6' corner covering him his a prime example of that youth. Senior Chesson will likely just reach over the guy, grab the ball and proceed to burn down the field for another 10 yards. Freshman Chesson doesn't jump properly and it results in an Int.
That said that throw made my happy, Chesson mistake aside, because it was one of many times that Gardner did throw to someone not named Gallon. Gardner was out of sync with a lot of those people but that can be fixed.
The second half went well and in the 4th we really did start to establish something. Fitz was running hard and the defense finally got pumped up thanks to the Morgan pick. Hopefully that will carry into the bye week and give the coaches a little something positive to work with before showing the 6 hour long clip of things that need to be corrected. I'm really hoping with 2 weeks off we can get the offensive line settled into at least mediocrity and Devin calmed down and out of the "I need to win it all by myself mode."
|09/20/2013 - 1:48pm
|This issue the higher ups who
This issue the higher ups who looked the other way on this did so in part to protect their cash cow of a football program from any taint of a scandal. PSU struggling to make ends meet is just in that is serves as a fair warning to every other administrator in the country (and the PSU community) that the coverup only makes it worse. The message needs to be sent that a better economic result will come from coming clean and taking the initial hit. True PSU never had some kind of secret meeting where the entire Board of Trustees said 'cover this shit up', but the culture was such that a group of school leaders thought they could do just that. Ultimately that is why they pay.
Also you can't just blame sanctions. Donations to the athletic program are also down, likely because alumni are disgusted by the actions of the department, not just in the coverup but all its continued denial.
Beside, they can always melt that statue down and sell the metal.

|One of my GSI's student
One of my GSI's student released coursework and grads I had performed on public forums and via mass email because they had an issue with me. Disclosure of grades of course falls under FERPA.
Lewis as Dean of Rackham was actually the ultimate say in punishing this grad student, but kept ducking meetings with me, I had four rescheduled and denying responsibility until a letter from an actual lawyer rolled in, coupled with an official compliant to the Department of Education. Suddenly Lewis had all the time in the world to meet with me after that and I no longer kept getting routed to other departments. For awhile they had this whole "Oh no, we don't handle that, someone else does." thing going on to ping pong me back and forth.

|Honestly I think State's
Honestly I think State's defense is slightly overrated. They needed to bring 5 or 6 just to get pressure against USF. The Bulls burned them a few times with draws. Against better teams Narduzzi may be made to pay for that aggression with those draws and screens. State's front 4 are not as disruptive as they were in past seasons.
|09/10/2013 - 2:14pm
|That stopping Denard defense
That stopping Denard defense comment is the key I think. Notre Dame early in the game was playing they thought Denard was still there and no one on our team could pass to save his life. They reopened with a rehash of their 2012 formations and were promptly murdered via a passing attack.
As the season goes on we'll see if coordinators we face make different choices, like not stacking 7 or 8 in the box and having the LBs play to stop the run on almost every down, and what kind of running game improvement we see at that point. So far Devin has not been a free turnover machine when pressured, so we'll see what happens next. If we seems playing to stop the pass more and we still struggle to run, my worries will increase at that point.
Funchess blocking mistakes that definitely hurt the run game. That's worrisome, but it is only his second year in the program and blocking takes time to learn (think back to Seth's work on how long it takes to prep offensive linemen to learn the blocking schemes, Funchess faces the same task to a degree).
|09/10/2013 - 2:50am
|Well this should hopefully
Well this should hopefully end the Sailboat Bill jokes (I have to admit, I've made a few myself). The oddly unified story I've heard is that Miles was exiled from AA by Bo for various sins beyond the whole screwing Mrs. Moeller thing, which might just be campfire gossip anyway. Which was why when coming into the 2006 season, when Carr wanted to retire and Bo was alive, no move was made to hire Miles. As the story goes, MSC felt that Bo was over reacting to some minor issues involving Miles, whereas Bo had full on excommunicated the guy. So long as Carr stayed on, MSC figured there was nothing to be gained by challenging Bo over this and let it ride coming into 2006 when Carr was making noises about retirement but people talked him into staying.
What happened in 2008 supposedly was Carr and Martin were against Miles, but MSC ordered contact to be made and since she is the ultimate boss she had to be obeyed. Martin, a multimillionaire who has conducted many business deals on tight timetables, became suddenly incompentent (strategically so one might say) with his cellphone and Carr laid the groundwork for RR (since RR had the Nehlen link and Bo liked RR's read-option, although I assume Bo must have flipped channels during defensive series). Martin 'made a mistake' and 'lost the deal', then Carr presented RR as a viable Plan B. However Carr actually had buyer's remorse due to further interactions with RR and things went to hell as we all saw.

Bakewell and Glossop's community transport schemes are two of seven in Derbyshire to share £1.5m in grants from the county council.
Both charities, based in Great Longstone Business Park and on Mill Street, Glossop, will each receive £186,347.
The grants are to enable the voluntary organisations to provide a range of journeys for people who are unable to use conventional public transport because services are limited or because of age or disability.
They run door-to-door, wheelchair-accessible minibuses, many with passenger assistants, and cars driven by volunteers for people to get to essential services such as the shops and healthcare appointments.
Cllr Andy Botham, deputy cabinet member for jobs, economy and transport, said: "Community transport plays a vital role in Derbyshire in helping people who would otherwise find it difficult to get out and about keep on the move and so retain their independence.
"I'm pleased that we can continue their funding next year at the same level it has been this year. These services also make an important contribution to supporting employment in Derbyshire.
"They provide jobs for drivers and passenger assistants, as well as providing volunteering opportunities and help for people with poor travel options who would otherwise find a lack of transport a barrier to work."
The council is also to continue its funding of £50,000 to the Wheels to Work project, based in Wirksworth, aimed at ensuring that young people in Derbyshire can get to work or training opportunities by loaning a moped or bike.

All News Releases By Date
EPA to begin Jordan River Improvement Project
Release Date: 10/27/2008
Contact Information: Jennifer Chergo, 303-312-6601, firstname.lastname@example.com Erna Waterman, 303-312-6762, email@example.com
- Jordan River Improvements mark a final milestone in the cleanup of the Midvale Slag Superfund Site
(Denver, Colo. -- October 27, 2008) The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Utah Department of Environmental Quality, in collaboration with the city of Midvale, today announced the start of a riparian improvement project along the Jordan River. This project is one of the final remedial requirements from the Midvale Slag Superfund Site Record of Decision for Operable Unit 2 (OU2).
EPA's goal for this project is to manage the Jordan River flows along the Midvale Slag Site in order to minimize bank erosion. Erosion of the riverbank along the site could lead to the deposition of heavy metals from the site into the river. The project involves the riparian corridor from 6400 South to 7800 South.
Work will begin in October and is expected to continue into 2009. The Jordan River Parkway Pedestrian Trail may be closed for a few days to allow for the improvements. However, EPA expects minimal disruption to trail users overall.
There are three main features to this project. The first feature is the stabilization of the existing, damaged sheet pile dam, a relic from Midvale's past mine waste smelting operations. EPA contracted with JE Hurley, Inc. to stabilize the sheet pile dam by shaping and incorporating it into a new structure. The new structure will be a boulder structure that will gradually reduce flows through the area to minimize bank erosion. The new structure will have a boat chute and a pull-out area to accommodate kayakers and canoeists.
The second feature of this project is the installation of spur dikes in the river. Spur dikes are flow-control structures designed to alter the flow of the river. Up to five dikes will be installed downstream from the new boulder structure to deflect flow away from the riverbank along the Midvale Slag Superfund Site to the center of the channel.
The third feature of this project is bank stabilization. EPA awarded a grant to the Salt Lake County Division of Water Resources to prevent the river channel from meandering and eroding the soil cover and underlying mine waste along the Midvale Slag Superfund Site. Rock armor will be placed on the outside bank, and an aesthetically pleasing vegetative soil cover will be installed to strengthen the riverbank.
EPA developed this river improvement design through a collaborative effort involving local agencies, federal agencies, community members, developers, and others. In 2007, EPA convened a stakeholder group comprised of representatives from these various groups to design and implement this project.
The 446-acre Midvale Slag Superfund Site is located 12 miles south of Salt Lake City in the city of Midvale, with a small portion extending into the adjacent Murray City. The site is a former smelting facility on the Jordan River. Five separate smelters treated ores from Bingham Canyon and other mines at various times from 1871 to 1958. An adjacent mill operated until 1971. Investigations at the site showed groundwater and soils are contaminated with heavy metals.
EPA listed the Midvale Slag Superfund Site on the National Priorities List, commonly known as the list of Superfund Sites, in 1991. After conducting investigations and developing cleanup alternatives, EPA issued two Records of Decision for the Midvale Slag Site. The riparian improvement project is one of the final elements to be completed, as required by the 2002 Record of Decision for Operable Unit 2, the southern portion of the site.

For most Americans, human and sex trafficking is a practice that evokes far-away lands of underdevelopment and need. But according to recent studies, it is a matter that is creeping in through the cracks of broken homes across the country and also through the porous Mexican border.
In an effort to curb the spread of this affliction, California Attorney General Kamala D. Harris and Mexico Attorney General Marisela Morales Ibáñez signed an accord last week to expand prosecutions of criminals –typically members of transnational gangs- who engage in the trafficking of human beings.
Most of the women trafficked into the U.S. are undocumented, recruited with false promises of marriage or a legitimate job. Data from the Polaris Project, a non-profit that runs the national human trafficking hotline, indicates that, especially if the woman has an initial smuggling debt or some other form of debt, they often face debt bondage and the revenues made from commercial sex acts are applied to pay off their debt.
Although it's hard to establish a solid number of victims, or even define them –child victims of sexual trafficking usually don't readily self-identify as victims, due to psychological abuses inflicted by their trafficker- the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children estimates that at least 100,000 children across the country are at risk of being sexually exploited each year. The average age of entry into the commercial sex industry is between 12 and 14 years old.
Polaris says that since December 2007 it received 58,911 calls to the hotline by self-identifying victims of human trafficking. The disturbing part is that they report a 61 percent increase of calls over 2010.
The hotline received calls from all 50 states, but the states where potential human trafficking was most frequently reported were California, Texas, Florida and New York.
The issue drew the attention of President Obama last week, when at an event Clinton Global Initiative he said that the estimated 20 million victims of human trafficking would become a major focus of his Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships.
"When a little girl is sold by her impoverished family, or girls my daughters' ages run away from home and are lured -- that's slavery," Obama said. "It's barbaric, it's evil, and it has no place in a civilized world."
Human trafficking is estimated to be a $32 billion global industry and the world's third most profitable criminal enterprise behind drugs and arms trafficking. The United States Department of State estimates that between 14,000 and 17,500 individuals are trafficked into the country each year. According to Polaris Project, in 2011 foreign nationals made up for 36 percent of the calls to its hotline.
Some of the signs teachers, social workers, counselors look in a possible victim are multiple unexplained absences from school, a repeated tendency to run away from home, older boyfriends or girlfriends and a sudden ability to have expensive items.

Blogger ProFile: 'Man Improbably Lands Dream Job, Spends Entire Salary on Ice Cream'
There's a new team of journalists at NPR. You'll see their work online at the Code Switch blog and hear their voices on air, exploring "the overlapping themes of race, ethnicity and culture, how they play out in our lives and communities, and how all of this is shifting." Today, the team launched its first multimedia project, which examines cultural ownership, visits U.S. cities in transition, and traces how familiar narratives about race and culture are in fact changing.
We're pleased to introduce you to Code Switch Blog Host Gene Demby. You're going to be reading and hearing a lot from him, so get know him a little.
My name... Gene Demby
NPR employee since... December 2012
Public radio listener since... around 2003. Shout-out to Brian Lehrer and Fresh Air.
My job at NPR is... the lead blogger at Code Switch, NPR's race, culture and ethnicity team.
The one word I worry about stumbling over on air is... "juxtaposition."
I'm not as... laid back ...as I sound.
The Newscast headline reporting the last year in my life would be... Area Man Improbably Lands Dream Job, Spends Entire Salary on Ice Cream.
I use social media to... banter with/and share big communal moments with strangers. (How did we watch the Super Bowl before Twitter?)
In my suitcase, you'll find... running headphones, chocolate wrappers, old New Yorkers.
If I could share a coffee with anyone, it would be... Sanaa Lathan.
I can't live without... ice cream. Seriously, it's a problem.
I wanted to be... a ninja ...when I grew up.
