SALADO, Texas (AP) — Emergency crews are responding to a reported bridge collapse along an interstate in Central Texas.
If you just have to have it now, as in one hour, you can, at least in the Dallas area, as Amazon.com Inc. announced Thursday it will offer Prime Now.
The future of a redevelopment plan for the 50-year-old Westchester Plaza on Fort Worth's Near Southside is unclear.
Texas unemployment fell to 4.3 percent during February for the sixth straight month of declines, the Texas Workforce Commission reported Friday.
Monty Bennett's name will not appear on the ballot for the Tarrant Regional Water District board of directors yet he remains a powerful backstage player whose influence could shape the direction of the district's business for years to come.
Entrada rendering.
A. Lee Graham
The road to Westlake's next major neighborhood passes through Europe in raising the bar for the town's already upscale pedigree.
The mixed-use development, Entrada, is a $350 million, mixed-use development promising more than 300 homes, 500,000 square feet of retail stores, offices surrounding a man-made lake, restaurants, medical offices and an amphitheater, all with a European aesthetic.
"Westlake is very well suited for this," said Mike Beaty,
president and chief operating officer of Blackard Global Inc., a McKinney-based real estate development firm.
Beaty joined forces with company CEO Jeffory Blackard in planning the project.
Entrada will displaying its European aesthetic through matching red shingle roofs topping its many buildings, the development will occupy 85 acres on the northeast corner of Solana and Davis boulevards just south of Texas 114 as it veers east to Southlake.
But serving Southlake – or any other nearby community – is not the idea.
"We're not Southlake Town Square," Beaty said, referring to that town's open-air mixed-use development. "Entrada just serves the needs of people in a one-mile radius."
In designing the development, Blackard, Beaty and Carrollton developer Mehrdad Moayedi selected not only architectural characteristics, but also a location that would best serve the immediate area.
Entrada will stand between Fort Worth Alliance and Dallas/Fort Worth International airports and next to the Solana Business Park, whose primary tenants are Wells Fargo, Supply Logix, Solera Holdings and Maguire Partners, which manages the business park.
Maguire Partners-Solana Land LP owns the Entrada property.
The project aims to bring Westlake more housing stock and offer nearby restaurant and retail options for the estimated 4,800 employees working in the business park.
"It's a good place for taking this village concept," said Beaty.
Land within a one-mile radius of Westlake is only expected to have 833 homes by 2015, with only 13.6 percent vacancy, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. That means more houses are needed in a town not known for rapid residential growth.
With Westlake's average household income of $168,506 and the average appraised home value at just over $1 million, according to 2010 Census data and town information, the developers consider Westlake ideal for Entrada's mix of planned townhomes, condominiums, villas and single-family homes priced between $500,000 and $2 million.
Westlake Mayor Laura Wheat was impressed with Blackard's role in developing the Adriatica Village mixed-use development in McKinney, a similarly European-inspired project. She contacted Blackard in 2012 for a potentially similar concept for her town, Beaty said.
Several Westlake Town Council and other public meetings followed, and now both sides are satisfied with a project they consider fair for taxpayers and exciting for potential homebuyers.
Before approving a development plan and preliminary plat in November 2013, the council approved an economic development agreement in which the developers agreed to pay the town $10,000 per residential unit when they reach the final plat stage.
Apartments in the original development plan were scrapped after public opposition from some residents. That dropped the original price tag from $500 million to $350 million
Not only is home construction funding taken care of, but so is money to pay for infrastructure improvements. A public improvement district approved in February allows the town to assess taxes from property owners within the district to fund trails, parks, landscaping, water, wastewater and drainage system improvements, among other infrastructure needs.
Developers plan to break ground in July, with some buildings planned to be under construction by November. The first homeowners should be able to move in by the end of 2015.
Serving as land planners on the project were Beaty and Blackard. Callison Architecture Inc. of Dallas was among architectural firms involved. The developers have hired no landscape architect yet, Beaty said.
At least one Westlake official called Entrada great news for the town.
"Entrada will bring a lot of uses not currently found in Westlake, allowing Westlake residents the opportunity to live, dine, shop, work and take leisure walks around a lake all within a common development," said Eddie Edwards, the town's planning and zoning director.
Asked whether Westlake eventually could consider apartments, Edwards said, "No, not in the near future."

Check out GIRLTalk's revised rules & regulations now! http://www.femalenetwork.com/girltalk/index.php/board,181.0.html
tanong ko lang po... paano or saan nyo binibigay yung tithes nyo?actually, kaya ko tinatanong din kung pano kayo nagbibigay ng tithe is because ang ginawa ko kasi nag-charge lang ako sa credit card... para nga monthly sure na may 500 akong tithe. then babayaran ko na lang pag me writing work akong makuha.ok lang kaya yung ginawa ko or dapat sa simbahan ko idinaan?
with us naman, we don't do obligatory tithes. These are some guidelines we practice:1. Give with a happy and willing heart2. Give what you can only give in such a way that it won't be a burden to you. You know for yourself how much you can give3. Do not let others see or know how much you give. 4. You set aside what you'll give and treat it as something sacred. If you have already set it aside, don't use it for anything else anymore5. Contributions are sacred, it should not come from gambling winnings, stolen money, etc.6. We don't accept church contributions from non believers of our faith (we would like to make sure that once you give, you practice all of the above as well) because if you don't then the contribution you (even we) give will be worthless.Just sharing
correction lang po that In Matthews record of what is commonly called the Sermon on the Mount, these words of Jesus are recorded: Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished (Matthew 5:17-18).Please be careful po kasi sabi din sa Deuteronomy 4:2 New International Version (©1984)Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the LORD your God that I give you.

If the National Weather Service is correct, we're just hours away from the first snowfall of the season.
The National Weather Service is forecasting snow showers to begin Monday and continue through tomorrow morning. Meteorologist Bill Simpson says an Arctic front is moving into southern New England.
"With that Arctic front there could be some snow showers. It won't be accumulating but any time you have some snow showers with an Arctic front it could snow pretty hard for a short period of time – just enough to make the roads slippery," said Simpson.
RI was largely spared the latest snow storm, but that was not the case for our neighbors in MA and CT. The state's economy is improving. These stories and more on the Morning News Podcast. Plus this week's guest on Political Roundtable is Woonsocket City Council President John Ward.Do you have insight or expertise on this topic? Please email us, we'd like to hear from you. email@example.com
The National Weather Service predicts Rhode Island will get another one to two inches of snow Friday. This is much less than the eight to ten inches which had been initially projected for Thursday and Friday.
Public schools in Rhode Island planned to operate under normal schedules today in spite of the winter weather.
Another snow storm is on its way. The new state Board of Education has all its members in place now. These stories and more on the RIPR Morning News Podcast.Plus in this week's This I Believe—Rhode Island essay, writer and actress Janine Weisman talks about the importance of community.Do you have insight or expertise on this topic?

The snow will get heavier, the winds stronger, and National Grid is working to avoid power outages.
The latest information on cancelations and closures can be found here.
Some towns have parking bans but no public schools are delaying the start of school this morning as snow falls across the state.
A snow storm is on its way. Yes, again. The ACLU says the state's Attorneys General are falling down on the job of enforcing the Open Meetings Law. These stories and more on the RIPR Morning News Podcast, along with this week's Political Roundtable with guest Pablo Rodriguez.

Several Rhode Island school districts are still delaying the start of school, several days after a major snowstorm hit the state.
Most of the delays are in the South County, with Jamestown, North Kingstown, Narragansett, Westerly and South Kingstown all reporting a one-hour delay in the start of the school day.
Chariho and Tiverton also started school later than usual this morning. Some districts have also canceled Kindergarten and early childhood programs.
In Cranston, city officials are reminding residents they are required to shovel their sidewalks. Residents have 24 hours from when the snow stops to clear the sidewalks outside their homes.Mayor Allan Fung says the city has not cited anyone for violating the citywide ordinance. "But we will cite if we have to and have the authority under the ordinance for those willful type violations. You know, completely ignoring the warnings from the officers or anything, you know, ridiculous."

Hi. I spend a lot of time on the Kitchen Forum. This is my first time here. Along with the kitchen remodel, we're redoing the main living spaces in our house, including the fireplace wall. Currently we have two wood burning fireplaces back to back on the same wall, but the fireboxes are offset from each other and different heights so they are not double-sided. They are not in the right spot on the floor plan and take up too much space. We plan to take this wall and the fireplaces out and install a double-sided see-through gas fireplace in a slightly different spot. Our GC steered us to a local fireplace shop where the Heat & Glo brand was recommended, specifically the ST550. Does anybody have this double sided fireplace? Are you happy with it?
Any other brands you would recommend? Thanks in advance, and I apologize if I sound like I don't know what I'm talking about....because I don't!

Queens Village, New York, 1971
Reader Harvey P. Berliner doesn't think we've had enough snowy carspotting scenes in our series, which is why he sent along today's photo of 221st Street near 94th Road in Queens Village, New York, dated 1971, showing a good layer of the white stuff on everything. That white stuff should add a little challenge to identifying the cars parked along 221st. What do you see here?
Second owner, first car, zero regrets: J-code Mach 1 comes out of retirement
All photos by Jess Brin.
Hemmings reader Jess Brin, aka WhipMeister, of Dallas, Texas, recently shared the remarkable story of how he found his first car—a 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1 with the J-code 375hp 429 Super Cobra Jet—his adventures with it, and his recent decision to resurrect it after a years-long slumber. For more of the story, visit Jess's page on My Hemmings, and for more photos of the restoration, visit Jess's Flickrstream. Oh, and if you have a story or photos to share, upload it to My Hemmings today.
In late 1973, freshly equipped with a new Texas driver's license and some money saved for a car, I embarked on a quest to find my first ride. I was keen on Trans Ams or Camaros and, coming from a GM family, didn't really have an interest in Mustangs, at all. Especially 71-73s. But some friends of mine kept teling about this 'Bad 429 Mach 1′ that they knew the owner—a kid in another neighborhood—was selling and kept egging me on to at least take a look. One of these friends had a 70 Boss 302 homologation edition (guess they're known as 'Parnelli Jones' that I was impressed with—that car is a whole 'nother fascinating story by itself), so I finally agreed to take a look at the Mach, to shut them up more than anything.
Well, I never believed in love at first sight until I walked into this guy's garage and he flipped on the light. It was simply eye-popping gorgeous. A spotless Grabber Yellow 1971 J-code 429CJ Ram Air 4-speed greeted me. Only 15,000 miles. Gorgeous black deluxe interior, blacked out NACA hood with the tattle-tale '429 RAM AIR' emblazoned on each scoop. Hockey stick stripes. I'd never seen a 429 Mach 1. Never really knew they existed until then, And was it ever scary, scary fast.
Umm, I had to have it. Luckily it was in the budget (heck of a lot cheaper than a Trans Am) and, after some careful copy editing of the pitch to my mom, it was mine.
Turns out the car had quite the reputation down on Dallas' legendary Forest Lane which was why my buddies were hyping it to me. Details slowly emerged that Mark (the guy I bought it from) had pretty much been in the habit of dispatching all challengers. While it had been returned to almost completely stock trim when he sold it, it had at one time been outfitted with all the go fast goodies (many of which I wound up buying off of him). He still had a big Crane cam, 4.71 gears, slicks, big Holley, intake, ported D0VE-C heads, etc. Most of which I relieved him of. Turns out his dad was making him sell the car after a couple of 'issues'.
His loss, my gain.
Needless to say I did my very best to uphold the yellow Mach's legacy on many a night down on Forest. Pretty successfully. I've owned a lot of fast cars in the intervening decades, but that Mach with its 385 series big block is still one of the most violently powerful cars I've ever piloted. An L-88 Vette is the closest thing I can compare it to. We would comfortably dial it in at 11.80 at Green Valley on pump gas even though we could never get it to hook up hard. Flipped the rear end out of its spring perches and snapped a big shaft Toploader main shaft right in half before we learned to 'pedal' it out of the hole in the interest of preventing further damage. Solid 11-second performer, even so.
Because I was a kid with few income prospects and hot rodding is expensive, the Mach frequently sat with one thing or another broken waiting on funding to fix. Over the years eventually life overtook me. College, career, family displaced everything else. The Mach, with its 24,000 miles on the odometer, sat in my mother's driveway under a cover. Year after year. She, was always prodding me: "When are you going to get rid of that 'junk' car? People ask about it all the time." My reply, "Never."
I had done my homework. J-code 1971 Machs are one of the rarest Mustangs ever produced. A little over 1,200 copies. One year only. So I was certain that one day, I'd have the means and time to get her back out. As a future investment, it was a no-brainer.
That time finally came in 2013. 40 years after I had first walked into Mark's garage and fallen hard for the big Mustang and after years of collecting OEM odds and ends.
My nephew, son of my late brother, complained one day that his dad had never really shown him how to 'work on cars.' I said, 'Well. You've come to the right place.'
I faced a dilemma in tackling the 'restoration.' It really needed a rotisserie, as time and water had taken a toll on the cowl (common Mustang problem area), a small section of the passenger floor and the entire trunk floor (downside of a rear-mounted battery BITD). But a friend of mine in the hobby that I trust (and who runs a body shop) came over and took a look and said, "The original paint from the doors forward is pretty solid, the glass is original, the interior only needs carpet and a headliner to look fresh. You already know the drivetrain is good … we'd already cleaned everything up fired it … You know, if I were you, I'd just freshen it up a bit, deal with some of the rust issues and roll it back out as your own personal 'barn find'." Me: "But it has dents here and here and there." Him: "This is the way you ran this car 40 years ago. Not many people still have the same car. I'd run it again just like it is with just the essential updating. Everybody likes seeing a time machine and this is definitely one."
So that's what we decided to do. I figure I can always do the rotisserie later. As he had said, the original paint was pretty good from the doors forward, but the quarters and trunk surfaces were badly spiderwebbed and chalky. Evidence of prior repairs and respray from a couple of minor fender benders—one mine, one the previous owner's. The black section of the hood was faded and thin.
The drivetrain was exactly as we had parked it (running) in the late '70s. It was short work to install a new battery, fresh plugs, fresh oil and filter, new dizzy (the old mallory grenaded on the first firing), carb rebuild, new fuel tank, pump and flushed lines, new headers and assorted electrical fixes. It fired right up from its multi-decade hibernation. Boy, you know that brought back some memories!
Over the next few months, we tackled a DIY respray from the doors back with new stripes, overhauled the brake system, new suspension components, fresh carpet, fresh passenger seat bottom, new package tray, etc. We replumbed the exhaust to be (a little) quieter. We retained the Fenton R/T aluminum wheels that I thought were so cool in 1975, kept the coil over shocks in the rear, and the Lakewood slapper bars. We replaced the 4.71 Detroit locker with a 3.89 Detroit locker center section (we kept the center section in case we wanted to go to the track) for better street manners.
The Mach is now back on the road as a fair weather cruiser and we regularly make the local cruise events. It's amazing to think that it is still running the same 429 I engineered and built as a teenager. And it's still scary fast.
It's a real blast to have people walk up to us out on Forest Lane during a cruise and say, "I remember a car just like that our here in the '70s. Man was it fast." Can you say 'conversation starter'?
Antwerp, Belgium, 1972
Don Antilla, who Hemmings Muscle Machines readers will recall as the owner of a 1966 Ford Fairlane 427 and a 1965 Griffith Series 200 that appeared in the magazine, has been supplying us with a steady stream of photos from his time overseas during the Seventies, including these two shots—above, from Antwerp in September 1972 and, below, from a hotel mini-balcony in Diyarbakir, Turkey, that same month. If you can pinpoint the locations of the two—especially the latter—while looking over the cars in both photos, Don said he'd be most impressed. What do you see here?
Brooklyn, New York, 1976
While both of our recent trips through Anthony Catalano's archives yielded some neat carspotting photos from either right on his street or right around the corner, today's batch shows Anthony branching out a little, both in terms of location and style. We'll start with the above photo, showing a bustling 13th Avenue looking north from 53rd Street. Below, Anthony's house on 57th, a photo distorted by his use of a Quaker Oats can as a pinhole camera. And at the bottom, at 58th and 13th, St. Frances de Chantal parochial school. What do you see here?
Remember when Oldsmobile embraced the diesel engine?
The 1979 Oldsmobile diesel range. Photos courtesy ProductionCars.com.
As the 1970s came to a close, automakers were faced with ever-stricter emission regulations on gasoline engines. Thinking outside the box, GM tasked its Oldsmobile division with creating a range of diesel engines that would be immune from gasoline emission standards, while delivering the performance and fuel economy that consumers wanted. On paper, it seemed brilliant; in execution, however, it was anything but.
The first Oldsmobile diesels arrived for the 1978 model year, and they carried a modified version of the brand's 5.7-liter (350-cu.in.) V-8. By 1979, the year of this magazine ad, the division had increased its oil-burning options to include the 4.3-liter (261-cu.in.) V-8 as well, offering diesel engines in a whopping 19 Oldsmobile models. With the promise of up to 32 MPG from diesel Cutlass models and up to 28 MPG from the diesel-powered Cutlass Cruiser station wagon, Oldsmobile seemed as if it had the answer to consumers' needs, but trouble was brewing.
While Oldsmobile reinforced the 350 V-8 block for diesel duty and created new heads, it retained the same head bolt pattern as used in its gasoline engines. Since diesel engines require higher compression, head bolt stretching (or outright failure) became a problem with the 5.7-liter diesel engine. This led to coolant leakage in the cylinders, frequently ending with a hydrolocked engine and catastrophic internal damage.
The diesel fuel system design used by Oldsmobile also failed to include a water separator, reportedly for cost-cutting measures. Diesel fuel of the day frequently contained water, which led to fuel system corrosion and injection pump failures on the Oldsmobile models, further worsening their already bad reputation. In 1982, the division introduced a 4.3-liter diesel V-6 that was greatly improved, but the fix proved to be too little, too late.
Had GM and Oldsmobile put more time into the development of diesel engine offerings, there's still no guarantee the experiment would have been a success. Even by the relaxed expectations of the day, the cars were almost terrifyingly slow, and their soot-belching and frame-shaking manner weren't what consumers expected from a near-luxury domestic car. In late 1984, Oldsmobile pulled the plug on its diesel experiment, but not before launching class action lawsuits, establishing lemon laws from coast to coast and tarnishing the reputation of diesel engines, perhaps forever, in the eyes of U.S. car buyers.
From the Archives – Stutz Blackhawk
There was no shortage of decadence in the pages of Hemmings Motor News during the 1970s. We've previously shown a few examples of customs, one-offs and retro-reanimations, from the Kanzler Coupe to the Cooper Markette. The Stutz Blackhawk, though, had a decent following during those days of disco and polyester, as evidenced by the fact that over 500 examples were produced from 1971-1987. This one was advertised in the December 1977 issue of Hemmings and was listed in our press photo as a Blackhawk VI.
The Blackhawks were designed by the retired Virgil Exner and used the Pontiac Grand Prix's chassis and drivetrain. The hand-crafted body work was done in Italy, and the Blackhawk came in at around 19 feet long. The interior featured gold-plated trim, Connolly Leather seats and dash, wool or mink carpeting and headliner, and the all-important liquor cabinet in back. Eventually, the Grand Prix was downsized and the later Blackhawks would be built upon the Bonneville. The Blackhawk VI had a base price of $69,500 back in the late 1970s, which would equate to over $225,000 today. Factor in that amazing 8 miles per gallon and your pockets would have to be quite deep to own one of these.
Speaking of which, the list of back-in-the-day Blackhawk owners was quite impressive. A partial accounting is on the Internet Guide to Stutz Cars website, and it reads like a "who's who" of 1970s entertainers, industrialists and millionaires. It also looks like a casting call for Cannonball Run 3.
Each Stutz had a plate of authenticity inscribed with the original purchaser's name. Elvis Presley, who loved luxury automobiles, owned four of them, including the promotional dealer car that was to be used for the auto circuit. We also featured one as a Find of the Day 2-1/2 years ago, listed for sale at $47,000.
Hemmings Sunday Cinema – across Europe in a 911, Quasar Unipower, Rita Hayworth's Cadillac, Duel
* Chris Rusby often questions his reasons for traveling to Greece to buy a 1969 Porsche 911 sight unseen and then driving it back to his home in England throughout this half-hour video he made of the journey, but we'd say it was worth it for those Alpine views alone. (via)
* Michael Banovsky, who shared with us the story of the Lutteral Comahue earlier this week, also sent over the link to this British Pathe video on the Quasar Unipower, figuring we'd get a kick out of it.
* We've mentioned the Rita Hayworth Ghia-bodied Cadillac a few times, but have never taken as long and lingering a look over it as Petrolicious did this past week, catching up with Leslie Kendall, curator of the Petersen Automotive Museum, where the Cadillac currently resides.
* Finally, last week's feature film, Maximum Overdrive, got plenty of you talking about Duel, and while we linked to the full movie in the past, it appears that old link is down, so let's post a new link to the full movie and hope this one stays up.
Hemmings Find of the Day – Yenko-Weslake 32-valve Chevrolet small-block V-8
While we most commonly associate Weslake with Ford V-8 engines, Chevrolet and Yenko did work with the British tuner to build a number of aluminum pushrod-activated 32-valve cylinder heads for the small-block Chevrolet V-8—reportedly 100 were planned, but only 10 sets were built, and only three assembled into full engines. This Yenko-Weslake 32-valve Chevrolet small-block V-8 for sale on Hemmings.com is one of those three assembled engines, originally built by Alan Smith Racing Engines in England, and the only one not in Speedy Bill Smith's museum, according to the seller. From his description:
This incredible 32 Valve Weslake Chevrolet is the Holy Grail of period Small Block Chevrolet performance engines. Commissioned by Chevrolet, this was a collaborative effort between Chevrolet and Weslake Engineering. Only three complete engines were originally built and only ten pairs of heads cast. This 355 ci Weslake Chevrolet engine was one of the three complete engines and was originally built by Alan Smith for Weslake Engineering in the U.K. It has recently been show finished and rebuilt for street use.
The engine also comes with an extra pair of original Weslake head castings, a spare Weslake valley pan and valve cover as well as original race parts – dry sump oil pan, 90-degree drive Ronco Vertex magneto and Lucas slide injection.
Price: $75,000

Hemmings Sunday Cinema – NASA's Stirling-powered vehicles, Bulletproof Beauty, postwar Willys Jeeps, Maximum Overdrive
* Unfortunately, this circa 1992 NASA video focusing on the Stirling external-combustion engines that the agency put in a handful of vehicles doesn't mention the AMC Spirit that received the engine swap, but it does make Stirlings seem like a perfectly reasonable alternative to internal-combusion engines.
* Bernhard Bredehorn grew up with fond memories of his grandparents' Mercedes-Benz 280, so it was only natural that he wanted one of his own, but it took more than just finding one to fulfill his dream. Petrolicious sits down with him to get the story on his 1972 280 S/8.
* What were Jeeps good for once they made the switch from military vehicle to Universal Jeep? As we see from this Willys-Overland promotional video from 1950, a whole lot: trench digging, cemetery work, spraying DDT all over the place. Good times. Part 2 of the video is here.
* Finally, the only movie Stephen King directed, the 1986 horror-thriller "Maximum Overdrive," based on his short story, "Trucks."
Hemmings Find of the Day – 1971 Fiat 850 Berlina
So there's a little rust on this 1971 Fiat 850 Berlina for sale on Hemmings.com, it has a smashed windshield, and its engine has been all torn down. That just means it's a good starting point for a project car, especially for folks who aren't intimidated by parts searches and offbeat vehicles, and for folks who might not have that much room to work on a car. If the seller comes through with a new windshield for the next owner, even better. From the seller's description:
This car was imported and sold by Fiat in the United States and spent its entire life in Georgia. I bought it from the original owner and have the original Georgia title from 1971 showing it was purchased "new". This body style – the 850 Berlina sedan – is extremely rare and you will probably never see another one.
If you are looking for an unusual eye catching car that will be adored by all, this is it. With the resurgence of Fiat in the United States, now is a great time to bring this classic Fiat back to the streets. This car is nearly complete and will have you chasing only a couple parts to complete the restoration. Considering the rust issues with Fiats and most cars of the era, this one is remarkably good condition.
All original complete car. The engine is disassembled but and neatly packed in boxes. All the parts are there. It was taken apart to be rebuilt but that is far as the owner got. I don't know what was wrong with it but no visible problems with the block, head, or pistons. The windshield is smashed and I'm sourcing a new one. All the rest of the glass, trim, chrome, lights, etc are in good condition except the front right turn signal and the front emblem has a small piece missing. The interior is in fair/good condition. One rip on the driver seat along the seam but it could be mended. The wheel wells where the rocker panel meets the wheel well have small half dollar size holes. The floor pans have some rust through especially in the middle of each pan, a tennis ball size hole at worst. Also the front splash shield is rusted through down low. The rest of it looks very good. No rust issues on the exterior body or elsewhere.

Jorie Graham
by Weston Cutter
Jorie Graham's From The New World has been hanging around me for the last while, hitting me up for the readerly equivalent of a thousand or so bucks of attention: you don't dip into Graham as you do other poets, or I don't, anyway (you can, obviously—it's just text, black on white—but for me the return on investment re her work increases dramatically with quiet attention. That's a long way of saying: there are few punchy, pitchy bits you leave one of her poems with; mostly you feel held against or under a beautiful water, and—unlike water—the longer you're under/against, the bigger the oh on release). Plus also: I've read all her stuff, and part of my reluctance to dance into the book had to do with what the TOC hipped me to: my favorite of her books, 2002's Never, is radically underrepresented (six of the poems in From The New World are from Never; Materialism's got six as well, so, I guess, someone else can write the mournful lament about that book's shortchanging), a problem I didn't even want to much contend with.
I've written elsewhere about the glories of Never, and my anxiety about its lack, or anyway thin showing in this new Selected (her first, Dream of the Unified Field, hit in '95), is that it's one of the most glorious and somehow beautifully desperate books I've ever read. It hit at a specific moment for me: I had doubts about if contemporary poetry was even bothering to attempt to Really Connect in intellectual/emotional/moral ways, as, say, Stevens or Eliot or Frost or Bishop or Dickinson had, and Never offered the till-then (and still-now) biggest yes re that question. It's terribly, achingly, shatteringly about connection (there's a sidebar here available, re Graham's biography, and how Swarm [itself represented by seven poems in New World] and Never, released in 2000 and 2002, repectively, were [presumably] composed at the time of the dissolution of Graham's marriage to James Galvin and her marraige to Peter Sacks, and the fact that Swarm is among the murkiest documents in American literature [one could/should open it at random and count the number of words that are not bracketed, broken-off, typographically whispered, it feels] while Never is so hungrily revving for Connect, Touch, Share…anyway, that aspect exists, however one wants to slot it). Never is also, I think, among the least fussy of Graham's books: one needs know nothing, not myths or artists or theorists, nobody: it's a natural book. It's messed-with, in lineation, but one needs no extra context to apprehend the poems.
What's interesting, though, about Graham—as with any Great writer—is that she's offering multitudes to each of us, all the time. What I read Graham for was this linguistic and self-based experiment—what Dan Chiasson in his unbelievably great review of The New World called her "brilliantly dissected subjectivity"—which I thought culminated in Never: that book read as if she were reaching clearly, deliberately out, to rattle the reader's conception of how poetry could connect reader+writer, what it could ask of both of us in that shared moment of/momentous context. But of course she was doing other stuff, in Never and before—was talking about myths and paintings, about religion and literature, about America and nature, and nature, and nature—and for all the folks who like me read her to get some connective charge in certain terms, plenty others I'm sure were getting other stuff. And there was, always, plenty: Graham's maybe intimidating for how much she puts in, her willingness to idea-check anyone, her ongoing comfort with writing from and in and toward what she called a Big Hunger: she's never written poetry that functioned like New Yorker cartoons, sweet things that dissolved the minute the page flipped, and her stuff, at its gnarliest, is never ever (I don't think anyway) opaque or idea-checking for points or some such: she wants to hit big, to be as specific as she can, to touch on Big Ideas, and (I believe) she does, and, in doing so, she goes anywhere: read the Notes of any of her books for a lesson in audacity.
And so now there's From The New World, a book spanning almost forty years of writing, and what's clear is that Graham's had any number of Projects/Agendas/Obsessions in her work (if you dislike thinking like that, fuck off: any artist will, through her work, make clear—if the work's looked at in a swath—what she's centrally focused on, preoccupied by, and to pretend otherwise is so dumb I here apologize for even bringing it up, but I've got a kneejerk thing re: using any of those terms since it seems my age-bracket is intimidated by acknowledging such obviousness). The Project/Agenda/Obsession of hers I like and first fell for, the one I think best articulated in Never? The one about subjectivity? That's simply one of many threads through her work, and it's not at all the central thread in her work—at least the central thread as it's articulated in *this* selection of poems from all the books (which selection, automatically, radically cleaves the scope of the books themselves [meaning there are several possible Selecteds to create from Graham's oevre, each of which would paint a revised scene re: what she's been Doing]). This is not at all a criticism, at all: it's an attempt to note that the poems on offer here work together—beautifully, one quickens to add—to paint a picture of a poet who's been for four decades fixated on questions about the world itself and living in it, about drawing some connective thread through the astonishing balances of existence. And, as Sea Change and Overlord and Never and to some degree PLACE make clear—along with the four new poems included in From The New World (poems I, unlike Chiasson, don't find to be some of her best: the one he quotes, to end his article, is incredible, but those prior read, to me, scratchy, missing)—Graham's emphatically a nature writer.
Which, of course, she's always been: you see it now, here, echoing back to even Hybrids of Plants and Ghosts, her first collection: where the earlier Selected begins with that early greatness "The Way Things Work"—a poem I cannot read as anything other than a poem about connecting, thinking-into-feeling-into-living—From the New World begins with "Tennessee June," a poem with similarities to "Work" but, instead of being accretive and trying to connect, "Tennessee" ends on "the spirit breaks from you and you remain," which is compelling and gorgeous, but is decidedly different from the feeling offered by "The way things work / is that eventually / something catches." Those are radically different dramas, with I'd argue wholly different stakes: the emphasis in "Tennessee" seems on where the act of existing remains once the spirit's broken "from you," and the emphasis in "Work" is on the catching, on the moment in which existence grinds gears with some other to breathe or enact living.
Of course, the selections from *all* Graham's books are different, Selected to Selected. Not for nothing, the more recent books—Sea Change and Overland and PLACE—are exceptionally well-represented in From the New World, and there's a way this reads that almost feels as if the glory of the now-early-middle-career books (Materialism, The Errancy, Swarm and Never) was a blip, some detour. In other words: if you fell hard for Graham based on the poems you read in The Dream of the Unified Field, you might find a different poet on these pages. I, anyway, have.
Again: this is not a problem. But the central drama of Graham's poetry has now, with From the New World, been firmly grounded as a consideration of humans' place in the world, how we interact with the world, and what we do to the world—and, ultimately, the peril we've put the world in, through our actions and ideas. Something about responsibility. This is a radically, radically different drama than the one you'd be forgiven for believing was the central one operating in Graham's work up till now: if you know Graham's work, you know that her Overlord and Sea Change—and certainly to a degree Never, though not as overtly—are engaged fairly directly with climate change, with the havoc humans have wrought on the planet. Sea Change and Overlord, for me, were the first misses in her long career: neither book finally ever cohered for me, not deeply, and I could never find or feel the pressure I'd once come for. What From The New World does, however, is recast all the poetry (or, actually, not really recast, but more re-jigger so that the stuff that's already there is specifically highlighted) so that the questions of cost and humanity-in-relationship-to-the-environment is paramount. This is not a bad thing, but it is a *different* thing than what you may have understood to be happening in Graham's poetry if your entrance was—like mine—through her work up until the early '00s.
So: this is, for me, a weird book. It's endlessly beautiful: I dare you to read any early or late or in-between stuff—"Reading Plato" or "Lapse" or "Dusk Shore Prayer"—without succumbing to the whallop there on offer. Dig it: nobody writes such Hugeness as Graham. Nobody. I've read for hours and days and months and years. Nobody has, in any way, tried to include/engage-with/tackle this much. Not even close. And so if you're just finding your way to Graham, please, by all means: get From the New World, and allow the enrapturing to do it's thing. If you're however interested in a longer strand of American poetry—one that's trying to wrestle with the most deeply gnarly questions of being and thinking and feeling—again, that subjectivity Chiasson notes so well—go ahead and get New World, but also, please, get The Dream of the Unified Field, and then read all the rest of her work. Maybe this is just a too-long way of saying: the selected poems of ANY poet this good is bound to be complicated, because in doing the so-muchness they're engaged in, any fractioned presentation of their work precludes the oomph available through the totality of the work.
The point of this review—consideration, really—is simply to note that the Jorie Graham poetry you're reading in From The New World is a rearranged approximation of one of contemporary poetry's Greatest Writers, and please just know that the environmental focus one can't help but notice in this collection is, I'd argue, simply one thread of the larger amazement she's been now braiding for forty years (and, clearly, I believe another thread—the thing about connecting, self, and subjectivity—is more something, I can't say what), and while it's great, I can't help, as a huge admirer of other facets of her work, but note that the other threads are equally monumental and transcendant. Anyway. If Graham doesn't win a Nobel eventually, we should all be sad: she's gunning for a glory so rare it's not even aimed for by most practicing writers. Finally, the point of all of this is just this: Read Jorie Graham. Everything past that immutable fact is so distant as to be dismissable.

Six IRS Tax Tips about Reporting Foreign Income
Are you a U.S. citizen or resident who worked abroad last year? Did you receive income from a foreign source in 2014? If you answered 'yes' to either of those questions here are six tax tips you should know about foreign income:
Additional IRS Resources:
1. Report Worldwide Income. By law, U.S. citizens and residents must report their worldwide income. This includes income from foreign trusts, and foreign bank and securities accounts.
2. File Required Tax Forms. You may need to fileSchedule B, Interest and Ordinary Dividends, with your U.S. tax return. You may also need to file Form 8938, Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets. In some cases, you may need to file FinCEN Form 114, Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts. See IRS.gov for more information.
3. Review the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion. If you live and work abroad, you may be able to claim the foreign earned income exclusion. If you qualify, you won't pay tax on up to $99,200 of your wages and other foreign earned income in 2014. See Form 2555, Foreign Earned Income, or Form 2555-EZ, Foreign Earned Income Exclusion, for more details. On top of that amount you may also be eligible for the foreign housing exclusion or deduction if you earn in excess of the foreign earned income exclusion.
4. Don't Overlook Credits and Deductions. You may be able to take a tax credit or a deduction for income taxes you paid to a foreign country. These benefits can reduce your taxes if both countries tax the same income.
5. Tax Filing Extension is Available. If you live outside the U.S. and can't file your tax return by April 15, you may qualify for an automatic two-month extension of time to file. That will give you until June 16, 2015, to file your U.S. tax return. This extension also applies to those serving in the military outside the U.S. You will need to attach a statement to your return explaining why you qualify for the extension.
6. Get Tax Help. Check the international services Web page for the types of help the IRS provides.
For more on this topic refer to Publication 54, Tax Guide for U.S. Citizens and Resident Aliens Abroad.
If you are preparing your own return and have questions, we can provide you with the answers in a mini consultation. Or if you want your return reviewed prior to filing with the IRS, we can do that too. And of course, we also prepare expatriate, nonresident and international tax returns. We have over 30 years experience preparing expatriate and nonresident tax returns. We are the experts you need.

Only 11% of Americas Living Abroad Are Filing the FBAR form 114 to Report their Foreign Financial Accounts
The U.S. State Department estimates that 7.2 million U.S. citizens live abroad, many of whom surely have reportable bank accounts, yet only a total of 825,000 FBAR reports were filed for 2012. We can help you catch up by entering special programs such as the IRS Streamlined Program or Offshore Disclosure program which will reduce or eliminate your penalties for failing to file FBAR forms (114) or forms 5471, or 8865, etc.
Once the foreign banks and insurance companies start sending in data to IRS reporting their US account holders, you may be subject to penalties of $10,000 per year or more for your failure to file. Take action now before it is too late. They will not reduce penalties if they catch you first. There are also criminal penalties up to five years in jail in addition to the failure to file penalties.

IRS Required Withholding on Payments to Foreign Companies and Individuals
U.S. Tax Withholding on Payments to Foreign Persons U.S. source income paid to foreign individuals amounts to $140 billion each year. Most types of U.S. source income paid to a foreign person are subject to a withholding tax of 30%, although a reduced rate or exemption may apply if stipulated in the applicable tax treaty.
General Rule
In general, a person that makes a payment of U.S. source income to a foreign person must withhold the proper amount of tax, report the payment on Form 1042-S and file a Form 1042 by March 15 of the year following the payment(s).
Withholding Agent
The person making the payment is considered to be the withholding agent. You are a withholding agent if you are a U.S.or foreign person that has control of any item of income of a foreign person that is subject to withholding.
A withholding agent may be an:
- Individual
- Corporation
- Partnership
- Trust
- Association
- Nominee (under section 1446 of the Code) or
- Any other entity, including any foreign intermediary, foreign partnership, or U.S. branch of certain foreign banks and insurance companies.
As a withholding agent, the payer is personally liable for any tax required to be withheld and which the payer fails to withhold.
A payment to a foreign person is subject to withholding if it is from sources within the United States, and it is either:
- Fixed or determinable annual or periodical ( FDAP) income, or
- Certain gains from the disposition of timber, coal, and iron ore or from the sale or exchange ofintangible property (such as patents or copyrights)
Examples of FDAP income subject to withholding include (but are not limited to):
- Interest
- Pensions and Annuities
- Alimony
- Real property income (such as rents).
- Royalties
- Taxable scholarships and fellowship grants
Withholding Agent Obligations
When you make a payment of U.S. source income to a foreign person or entity you are normally required to withhold U.S. income tax at a rate of 30% and report it on Forms 1042-S and 1042 by March 15 of the year following the payment(s).
The penalty for not filing Forms 1042-S and1042 when due (including extensions) is usually 5% of the unpaid tax for each month or part of a month the return is late, but not more than 25% of the unpaid tax. Additional penalties apply for failure to provide complete and correct information or if you fail to provide a complete and correct statement to each recipient. The maximum penalty is $100,000 per year.

The IRS has prepared several documents that help explain those requirements, including FS-2011-13 and the U.S. Citizens and Resident Aliens Abroad page on IRS.gov. Situations of taxpayers with offshore compliance issues vary widely given the complexity of this area of tax law. Taxpayers that recently learned of these tax requirements have many options are available outside of the normal filing process to help them get current with their tax obligations. A number of the common situations and potential solutions are outlined below.
The IRS recommends taxpayers to consult with their professional tax advisor in determining which option is the most appropriate given their facts and circumstance. We at www.TaxMeLess.com have helped over a hundred clients catch up with the IRS. If you need to talk about this email us at firstname.lastname@example.com . We are both attorneys and CPAs. As attorneys we can offer you complete attorney client privilege (and all of its confidentiality and privacy) on all information we discuss. Regular accountants cannot provide you with that privilege and the IRS can force them to reveal information.
|Compliance Option
Taxpayers who have properly reported all taxable income but recently learned that he/she should have been filing FBARs in prior years to report a personal foreign bank account or to report signature authority over bank accounts owned by an employer.
|Taxpayers who reported, and paid tax on, all their taxable income for prior years but did not file FBARs, should file the delinquent FBAR reports according to the instructions (send to Department of Treasury, Post Office Box 32621, Detroit, MI 48232-0621) and attach a statement explaining why the reports are filed late.
The IRS will not impose a penalty for the failure to file the delinquent FBARs if there are no underreported tax liabilities and you have not previously been contacted regarding an income tax examination or a request for delinquent returns.
|Taxpayers who only have certain delinquent information returns, but no tax due.
A taxpayer who has failed to file tax information returns, such as Form 5471 for controlled foreign corporations (CFCs) or Form 3520 for foreign trusts but who has reported, and paid tax on, all their taxable income with respect to all transactions related to the CFCs or foreign trusts, should file delinquent information returns with the appropriate service center according to the instructions for the form and attach a statement explaining why the information returns are filed late. (The Form 5471 should be submitted with an amended return showing no change to income or tax liability.)
The IRS will not impose a penalty for the failure to file the delinquent Forms 5471 and 3250 if there are no underreported tax liabilities and you have not previously been contacted regarding an income tax examination or a request for delinquent returns.
|Non-resident U.S. taxpayers with delinquent returns with low risk factors (including tax owed less than $1,500/year).
|Filing Compliance Procedures for Non-Resident U.S. TaxpayersNon-resident U.S. taxpayers should file delinquent tax returns, including delinquent information returns, for the past three years; delinquent FBARs for the past six years; and additional required information regarding compliance risk. Payment of any federal tax and interest due must accompany the submission.
|Taxpayers with undisclosed foreign accounts and unreported income. Taxpayers seeking protection from criminal prosecution.
Offshore Voluntary Disclosure ProgramThe Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program (OVDP) offers a civil settlement structure in which taxpayers pay an offshore penalty in lieu of a number of other penalties that may be assessed in cases of offshore noncompliance. The OVDP also offers protection from criminal prosecution. In order to participate in the OVDP, taxpayers must first request acceptance into the program. Once they have been preliminarily accepted, taxpayers must submit certain information including eight years of amended tax returns, FBARs, and information returns as well as information about their offshore accounts. In addition, taxpayers must submit full payment of the tax and interest due, and certain penalty amounts.
Taxpayers who have entered OVDP who disagree with the application of the offshore penalty given the facts and circumstances of their case may elect to opt out of the civil settlement structure of the program. In such situations, the IRS will determine if penalty mitigation is appropriate.

US Tax Reporting of Foreign Pension Plans by Expats
Foreign pension plans in almost every situation are not treated the same as US pension plans. Often the employers contribution and earnings in the account are immediately taxable on your US tax return even though tax deferred in the foreign country of origin. There are some beneficial exceptions to these rules in the US tax treaties with Canada and the UK.. In most situations you may also have to report the amounts in your foreign pension plan on Form 114 (foreign financial account report) which is filed separately from your US tax return and is due on 6/30 following the end of each calendar year.

I'm also into Tetris as well. Keep at with those 8bit songs.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
A little question
What are you using to make 8bit song
Rated 5 / 5 stars
it really tells me you like tetris and how much skill you have
Why thank you!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
the intro sounded just like the game,... brings back good memories of playing this on my game boy...
and the sounds from the game made it soooo good, and 1:50 was my favourite part
That part at 1:50 was jacked from McVaffe's Tetris QuasiUltimix over at OCRemix. I'm sure he doesn't mind as long as I'm saying that it's his and not viciously stating that it's mine and mine alone. After all, all music is just borrowing from and building upon the past.
