The continued expansion apparently also is fostered by booming sales in most markets where Apple opened retail stores last year. During the second quarter, sales of Apple products jumped by about a third year over year in cities with a store, the sources said.

I went to a store earlier this year and was blown away. I think that anybody who goes to one of these stores will be very impressed.

I guess on further reflection, the missed call on the Germans wasn’t so bad.

We created enough chances, we should have put one in, said captain Claudio Reyna , who played the most spirited game of his long international career. You can’t blame the officials. They didn’t see it. We’re not going to cry like Mexico did.

The US loses to Germany with a controversial goal disallowed.

###Germany was Lucky

Former Germany captain and coach Franz Beckenbauer said that the three-times winners were lucky to beat the United States 1-0 in their World Cup quarterfinal on Friday.

America were clearly the better team for 90 minutes, said Beckenbauer, an analyst for Germany’s pay-television network. We’ll have to raise our game considerably after this.

You got that right. The US clearly outplayed and outshot Germany.
