Catastrophe in Haiti (13)
underneath Port-au-Prince caused the earthquake--and that Haiti's poverty and the incapacity of the PrĂ©val government made the disaster so much worse. But they didn't delve below the surface. "The media coverage of the earthquake is marked by an almost complete divorce of the disaster from the social and political history of Haiti," Canadian Haiti Solidarity Activist Yves Engler said in an interview. "They repeatedly state that the government was completely unprepared to deal with the crisis. This is true. But they left out why." Why were 60 percent of the buildings in Port-au-Prince shoddily constructed and unsafe in normal circumstances, according to the city's mayor? Why ar... 		Rating the top 20 prospects for 2010 (13)
Amobi Okugo, M, UCLA: Okujo showed his maturity and composure at the combine. He's a smooth player with big upside but is not as ready to control a midfield as Tchani. To a team that can afford to wait a season or so, Okugo is an enticing talent. 10. Michael Stephens, M, UCLA: Stephens dominated inside at UCLA and proved this year that he can play outside. He also showed at the combine that he's one of the best midfielders in the pool and solidified his status as a first-round talent in my book. 11. Blair Gavin, M, Akron: An unsung player who attracts little attention, Gavin is a deep-lying midfielder capable of starting the play and creating. He's behind Sta... 		Ecological woes hinder expansion of airport near Boracay (12)
Every summer, 22-year old Markus Sevilla goes to Boracay with his friends. But he often complains about the long and inconvenient route from the Kalibo Airport to the Caticlan pier, the gateway to the world-famous island which is known for its powdery beaches. This month, the much-awaited expansion of the Caticlan airport will finally start, upgrading it to international standards, said Aklan Gov. Carlito Marquez. “It will help us achieve our goal of having one million tourists each year," Marquez said in an interview with GMANews.TV. The airstrip, which can only service small turbo-propeller aircraft, will be widened to cater to jet airliners, h...

Democrats Want Green Energy Mandate Increased (2010-01-13) (10)

Under current state law, public utilities must generate 20% of their power from renewable energy, such as wind and solar, by the year 2020. But the state's largest utility provider, Xcel Energy, is on par to meet that mandate early. State senator Gail Schwartz (D-Snowmass) says it only makes sense then to up the ante. "I think it will again, demonstrate Colorado's leadership in attracting industry in and around our new energy economy," Schwartz says. Schwartz says her bill would boost demand for renewable energy and spur more development and jobs in the sector. Critics, including some utility companies, have expressed doubts as to whether such an increase is feasible withou...
'American Idol' Atlanta Auditions Turn Up The Talent (10)

Bridge-jumping Vonore, Tennessee, girl Vanessa Wolfe, 19, hoped that a twangy turn through Old Crow Medicine Show's "Wagon Wheel" on "Idol" would help her get out of a going-nowhere life in her small town. Kara DioGuardi appreciated her country wholesomeness, and even though Simon thought she was "ill-prepared" for the pressure of Hollywood, he loved her authenticity and gave her a golden ticket. Other standouts included South Dakota waitress Mallorie Haley, whose farm-bred good looks and Jewel-like countrified take on Janis Joplin's "Piece of My Heart" got an instant yes from Blige and raves from the rest of the crew for her confidence. But the night's unexpected treat was Ten...

Wyclef Jean Haiti Relief Efforts (10)

MYFOXNY.COM - Singer Wyclef Jean has invested countless hours raising money and awareness for his Haitian relief organization Yele. Jean is in Haiti, his homeland, helping family and friends recover from the massive earthquake that rocked the nation on Tuesday. Jean's sister, Melky, spoke with Good Day. (AP) - Wyclef Jean is one of Haiti's most famous sons, and his tweeting about the earthquake there has been a galvanizing force on the Web. Jean is most famously a member of the now-defunct Fugees. Publicist Leslie Chasky says he arrived Wednesday in Haiti and is focusing on his family, his Haitian charity and responding to the disaster. Several of the most popular t...
Cutcliffe, Calhoun on Vols' list (10)

The two names that appear to be at the top of the Vols' list, in no order, are Air Force's Troy Calhoun and Duke's David Cutcliffe. Both coaches have had discussions with Tennessee officials, and Tennessee athletic director Mike Hamilton has a history with both coaches. Cutcliffe was the offensive coordinator at Tennessee on two different occasions before getting the Duke job. Calhoun was a finalist for the Vols' head job when Lane Kiffin was hired, and at least one of the members of the Vols' search party at the time had Calhoun No. 1 on his list. Calhoun also has NFL coaching experience, which works in his favor with Tennessee. Calhoun has a team meet...
Forward rankings for the 2010 SuperDraft (10)

David Estrada, UCLA -- Many people seem to have forgotten how good Estrada was when he burst onto the scene in his walk-on freshman campaign. Estrada led UCLA with a school freshman-record 12 goals and was named almost everyone's national Freshman of the Year that season. A marked man since, Estrada has been given little room to work and not a lot of help up top the last few seasons. Surgery for a fractured metatarsal cost him the first half of the 2007 season. Fully healthy in 2009, Estrada picked up his fourth career Pac-10 nod with a first-team honor on the strength of his three goals and seven assists. A former U.S. U-18 with terrific feet, vision and ball skill, Estrada has always...
