Team Ireland is celebrating its first gold medal at London 2012, thanks to boxer Katie Taylor,
but the Irish also had an unlikely part to play in another, very special Olympic victory on Thursday. Kenyan middle-distance runner
David Rudisha joins
notable alumni from
Saint Patrick's High School, a 500-student boy's school started by Irish missionaries in 1963, in
Iten, a town in Kenya.
Brother Colm O'Connell, though no longer teaching at the school, is still a highly regarded coach in one of the world’s great running capitals. The school
plants a tree in honor of record-making alumni, though some of the more recent alumni are getting shrubs, to save space.

It's New Years Eve (or already the first day of the new year,
depending on where you are), and you may be looking for something other than the radio to play for a countdown. Head backwards, then, to
cruise into the 80s with the Grateful Dead for the
closing of Winterland. Or join
the Janglers to
say goodby to 1993 and hello to 1994 at
Peabody's Downunder. You can check out
twelve hours of Essential Mixing and relive the transition from 2000 to 2001. Get closer to the present day with
some big band and swing into 2010 in style.
Say hello to 2011 with
B.A.G.S. (Bullman, Ashworth, Guggino, Sipe), spend
an hour and a half with
Blu Mar Ten or
six and a half hours with
Mr Scruff. And if you're looking for something new for tonight, try some mixes from
Redondo,
Montreal Funk Monkeys, and
a countdown minimix from DJ Raymix.
