When Pete Gerosa started out in the auto business working for Oldsmobile in 1964, the General Motors division (now defunct) sold 510,931 vehicles, dealers for Plymouth (R.I.P., too) began selling the sporty new Barracuda and new-car prices started at $1,806.
Those were the days.
"It was a lot different back then," says Gerosa, who this year retires from GM. "The entire focus was selling the car, not the deal. Back then, customers had emotional attachments to cars."
That feeling is not entirely gone today, but there are plenty of other elements to modern automotive retailing – many of them spearheaded by GM, such as hefty incentives, deep discounting and 0% financing to move the metal.
"The advent of 0% financing was a big development," increasing sales and GMAC financing, says Gerosa. "We were called crazy, even by some of our own people."
But it had negative consequences in the showroom, acknowledges Gerosa, who until February was GM's vice president-field sales, service and parts. He now is assigned to sales and service programs and distribution strategies as a prelude to retirement.
"The impact of 0% financing is that we forgot how to sell the vehicle," he says. "The focus became the deal. We need to get back to the vehicle."
GM's new pricing strategy is to set the manufacturer's suggested retail price closer to the actual transaction price. Some dealers like it, some don't. "We have 7,450 customers – our dealers – and it's hard to get everyone to agree," says Gerosa.
So-called value pricing is a big change from MSRPs set absurdly higher than actual transaction prices.
"We priced up so we could price down with rebates," says Gerosa, recalling the recent past. "It's stupid when you think about it." Incentives are here to stay, but "absolutely not will the big rebates return," he vows.
He assesses another one of GM's creative pricing schemes – last year's employee discounts for consumers.
"We sold 1 million cars in two months," he says. "Did we pay for it in some subsequent months with pulled ahead sales? Yeah. But I'd do it again in a flash. We reduced a high inventory. We ran out of cars."
What he calls inventory clear-outs, critics call fire sales and acts of desperation. Whatever such pricing ploys are called, they should not drive sales in today's changing market, Gerosa says. "We need to get sales people focused again on selling the value of the product."
Doing that means auto makers must build vehicles that people want to buy, "not buy because they're great deals," Gerosa tells an F&I Management and Technology conference.
But an attendee, whose dealership job involves financing deals, poses a pointed question.
David Latshaw, finance director at Shaver Pontiac in Thousand Oaks, CA, asks why GM, after coming up with the hit Pontiac Solstice, fails to build enough of the 2-seat roadsters to meet customer demand.
GM plans to make about 20,000 Solstices a year, touting it as a low-volume "halo" car that will cast a glow on the entire brand. But such lofty reasoning isn't cutting it on the sales floor.
"Why is it so hard to get the Solstice?" Latshaw asks Gerosa. "Our dealership had 600 initial orders and only got 13 cars."
Gerosa responds: "What is the right number? Too many, and you discount. Too few, and there are waits. But 13 is too low."
Latshaw later tells me what happens at his dealership when vehicle demand is red-hot, but supply ice-cold.
"It's crazy," he says. "Pontiac finally has a hot product, and they are not making enough of them. We put a sold Solstice in the showroom just to display it, and people were saying, `I want to buy that car!' They got mad when we told them they couldn't. They were freaking out. We had to hide the car in back."
Nostalgia kicks in now and then for Gerosa. When he joined GM 42 years ago, the auto maker's U.S. market share was 49.6% vs. today's 24.6%, which is less than Chevrolet's 27.8% slice alone back in 1964 B.C. (Before Camry).
"When I started, it was easy," he says. "Recently, I was telling a field rep in L.A. that there was a time when we sold cars without incentives. She said, `How'd you do that?"

The control lever on our 1999 Hot Springs Soveriegn hot tub broke off and now when the jets are running water squirts out where the lever once was. Can this lever be replaced? If so, where can I purchase one?

Viewers: in countries Watching now:
Digital video is a medium that is now available to almost everyone. It can be captured on anything from a mobile phone to a high-definition camera, and published anywhere from YouTube to Blu-ray discs. In Premiere Elements 4 Essential Training, Adobe Certified Instructor Chad Perkins explores all the video editing capabilities of Premiere Elements 4. Chad starts with a real-world sample project, then covers techniques for importing and editing video; and adding effects, transitions, and animation. He concludes with a final project incorporating all the steps, including exporting and posting. Exercise files accompany the course.
Folks, I can almost guarantee you that if you're using Premiere Elements to create personal video projects, let's say for wedding, birthday parties that type of thing, this feature that we're going to be covering in this short little chapter on Movie Themes, will quite possibly be your favorite in this entire training series. This is a blast. What Movie Themes are, it's a little hard to describe. Basically what it does is that it creates an entire presentation out of a few simple clips. What it does, as an intro movie, it maybe a tile movie, transitions, effects, overlays, outro movies, all kinds of stuff, to your simple videos.
Say for example My Project here, you don't need to follow along, this project is in your chapter 10 folder. It is the Movie Themes Intro project, if you want to just go through this yourself. But I basically start here with two simple clips. All I do is drag them down to my scene line and then I applied a Movie Theme and that's it. I customized it and tweaked it a little bit and I want to go through and show you where I did that, but first, I want you to see what a difference the Movie Theme makes to the entire project here. Basically again, I have done nothing on my own, I have not added any transitions, any effects, nothing, I just drag and drop these clips that you have already seen in this boring bird clips into a Timeline and then added a Movie Theme and that's it.
Let's watch what we have, it's very cool. OK, very cool stuff, just get at the Home key to get back to the beginning, as you saw that I had my two little bird clips but all the cool stuff that Premiere Elements added was the focus, it made my video presentation look so much cooler and more professional and engaging because of what Premiere Elements added.
I love that. So let's go through and talk about this, first thing Premiere Elements does, adds this really cool motion graphics intro. Basically this is the memory box Movie Theme and so there is all kinds of memories going in this memory box, and I go to the next little clip here, let's keep dragging in the Timeline. It kind of scrub here, and then we go into the title movie. And basically this starts out saying, Movie Theme or something about movie, some generic anyways, and I change it to Chad's Bird movie and then I also took my clip, because basically what this does, is it creates kind of like the still image overly on top of your footage and your first clip plays in this window, but it's full size.
So you're only seeing, maybe like the foot of my bird right. So I scale back the bird movie, so the bird movie fit entirely in this little picture frame right here. Isn't that adorable? Go around a little bit, we start to see some little cute balloon animals falling over our footage which is very cool, and then as I move forward, you start to see this bird footage, just start to blur out and move along. That's because transitions are automatically built into this Movie Theme. It's just a part of Movie Themes, which is very cool and then eventually the footage stops and this is the last clip, so then there are these credits, and as you can see here, this movie has been brought to you by Chad Perkins.
These are movie credits that I customized; I made these my own. So that's another cool thing about Movie Themes, we'll talk about later on in this chapter, is that not only can you apply this stuff, but you could select the apply which pieces you want. So maybe you just want the intro and the outro, or maybe you just want the credits, or maybe you just want this or that or whatever, you can pick what you want from the Movie Theme, and then having applied it, you can usually do a little bit of customization like these credits here as well. And then scrubbing my time indicator little bit further in time, there is another cool little transition that warps it, gets it out of there, and there is another little final intro and the piece is done.
All the audio everything provided by Premiere Elements. So that's what we're going to talk about in this great chapter. We are going to be talking about Movie Themes. In the next movie we're going to talk about applying movie themes and I'm also going to show you how to browse them, just to see little clips of them without actually having to apply them to your project, and in the movie after that, the last movie in this chapter, we're going to be talking about personalizing those Movie Themes, to get just what you want out of those Movie Themes. So without any further ado, let's hop to it and check out Movie Themes.

Last week I started introducing you to the new Argo bloggers. We have two more to announce now, completing the first wave of sites.
Minnesota Public Radio has brought on board Alex Friedrich to be the dean of its higher education site. Alex spent the past year getting his masters at the London School of Economics. He is a former St. Paul Pioneer Press reporter who covered education for the Monterey County Herald (Calif.). Alex has covered a wide range of stories from the Russian elections in Moscow to the I-35 bridge collapse in the Twin Cities. He may be best remembered around the MPR newsroom though as the guy who once appeared on-air for eating nothing but food-on-a-stick for 12 days straight at the Minnesota State Fair in 2006… and lived to talk about it. To be fair, it was a reporting assignment for the Pioneer Press, not simply a craving for corn dogs!
Cassandra Profita is the new Argo blogger at Oregon Public Broadcasting. We like that Cassandra began one of her stories with, 'Spotted this month: Six men heaving hundreds of dead bodies into Clatsop County's Lewis and Clark River.' She goes on to explain that they were, in fact, 'dead fish bodies — or what remained of them after six months of storage.' Sounds like the right tone for her blog on the collision between development and environmental policy in the Northwest. Cassandra is an award-winning reporter for The Daily Astorian (Or.) and reports weekly for the local NPR member station KMUN. She has degrees in journalism and environmental studies from the University of Missouri.
It's a great group. Can't wait to see the talent that the next six stations bring on board.

Ford's Vail Retreat Listed at $14.9 Million
The Vail, Colo., ski retreat that President Gerald Ford owned for about a quarter century is on the market for the second time in less than two years, asking $14.9 million.
The ski-in, ski-out house of about 10,000 square feet has seven bedrooms and is within walking distance of Beaver Creek village. The seller, real-estate investor Kevin Hayes, bought the home in early 2007 -- a few months after Mr. Ford died -- for $6.65 million. Mr. Hayes says he spent over $4 million on renovations, including redoing the wiring and plumbing and putting in a new kitchen and floors, as well as relandscaping.
During his presidency, Mr. Ford frequently took ski vacations in Vail. He got his choice of lots when the Beaver Creek resort was developed in the 1970s, according to the resort. In 1982, he spearheaded the AEI World Forum, an annual gathering of politicians and executives in Beaver Creek. He primarily lived in Rancho Mirage, Calif., where his widow, Betty, age 90, still resides.
Matt Fitzgerald and Anna Menz, of Slifer Smith & Frampton Real Estate, have the listing.
NFL's Strahan Buys New York Condo
Just-retired NFL star Michael Strahan, who played a key role in the New York Giants' unlikely run to last season's Super Bowl championship, last week paid between $1.5 and $2 million for a loft in Manhattan's Tribeca neighborhood, says his broker, Frances Katzen, of Prudential Douglas Elliman.
The defensive end agreed to purchase the 2,000-square-foot, high-floor unit in 2006, but building-permit and other issues delayed the closing, Ms. Katzen says. The condominium, sold in an unfinished state, has 15-foot ceilings and sandblasted brick walls, and the building has full-time doormen.
In June, the 36-year-old Mr. Strahan retired from pro football and announced he was joining Fox Sports' pre-game show "NFL Sunday," based in Los Angeles. Mr. Strahan will use the loft as a pied-à-terre, Ms. Katzen says. He also owns homes in New Jersey, Texas and California.
Developer Peebles Asks $8.3 Million in D.C.
Real-estate developer and frequent home buyer-and-seller R. Donahue Peebles has listed his Washington, D.C., stone Tudor house for $8.3 million.
Mr. Peebles and his wife, Katrina, have bought, renovated and sold several homes and own houses in Coral Gables, Fla., and Bridgehampton, N.Y. The couple bought the 0.35-acre property in September for $5.9 million, records show. Mr. Peebles was raised in Washington.
The seven-bedroom house, erected in 1929, is on Thompson Circle, in the Massachusetts Avenue Heights neighborhood near St. Albans School. Christian Heurich, a brewmaster, built the home as a wedding gift to his daughter. The Peebleses landscaped and put in new wiring, a laundry room, a wine cellar and finished the basement, says agent Greg Gaddy, of Tutt, Taylor & Rankin Sotheby's International Realty, who shares the listing with colleague Caroll Dey.
Mr. Peebles is chief executive of Peebles Corp., whose projects include a hotel-and-condominium development in Las Vegas.

Psychologist sentenced to four years for fraud
Millions billed to Medicare and Medicaid
A 54-year-old Corpus Christi man convicted of defrauding Medicare and Medicaid of millions was sentenced Monday to four years in federal prison without parole.
Joe Luis Lerma, a licensed psychologist with a professional office in Corpus Christi, was accused of billing Medicare and Medicaid for services he did not perform or supervise and for double billing for services during a 21/2-year period beginning September 2002, according to a news release by the U.S. Attorneys' Office.
A jury in August found Lerma, who since has lost his license, guilty of nine counts of health care fraud.
According to evidence presented in the five-day trial, federal investigators found Lerma hired people with master's degrees in the psychological field to do psychological testing on a contract basis.
Some were licensed by the Texas State Board of Psychologists and some were trainees, the news release said.
Under Medicaid regulations, psychologists cannot bill for services performed by others.
U.S. District Judge Hayden Head on Monday also ordered that Lerma must follow a three-year term of supervised release after completing his sentence and pay $530,000 in restitution.
Attempts to reach Lerma's attorney were unsuccessful.
Lerma is free on bond pending the issuance of an order to surrender to a prison facility, the release added.

The learning program of this internship is largely supported by the sponsoring organization with some faculty involvement. Since academic credit is granted, it is required for the student to coordinate with the Faculty Advisor who facilitates the learning process throughout the internship. The student must discuss with the Faculty Advisor, regarding the academic paper (minimum 4-5 pages of a special internship topic) and the progress of the work during the internship (at least one session during the trimester).
In recent years, the business world has become increasingly sensitized to the presence of institutional governance and defining the culture of a corporation and its core values. Stated explicitly or not, these issues not only impact the reputation of the venture or corporation, but also its sustainability and financial bottom line.
As we take the first steps in a networked economy, the transformation of our ways of doing business has become profound. The World Wide Web, MP3 compression, digital interactive television, wireless communication, video streaming, podcasting, video sharing, thin computing, and social networks are redefining the ways we interact with customers and manage market(ing) relationships.

Taco Bell is the latest fast food company to go on a health kick. Taco Bell's CEO Greg Creed announced that the company is looking to add healthier choices to their menus, along with a bit more transparency on their existing foods.

A$AP Rocky Review

MP3: Roach Gigz - "Got 'Em Like (Styrofoam Cup Session)" (Prod. By Zodiac)
Courtesy: Audible Treats.
Producer For The Weeknd Partners With Roach, Southern Hospitality For New RemixCritical Praise for Roach Gigz:"Here's to the new age of rap. And Roach Gigz. Who is awesome." - The FADERThe Video:Roach Gigz has kept fans plenty busy over the past few weeks. First came the "Stupid (Remix)," featuring Husalah and Lil B. Next, the release of Roach's debut EP, Bitch, I'm A Player, followed last week with the release of his video for "F A Chorus," shot and directed by Kreayshawn. Now, with more BIAP videos forthcoming, Roach has teamed up with the good folks over at Southern Hospitality, to take fans back a little, with a remix from Roachy Balboa 2 fan favorite "Got 'Em Like."The remix, officially titled "Got 'Em Like (Styrofoam Cup Session)," comes courtesy of Canadian producer Zodiac, best known for his work producing for The Weeknd, including House Of Balloons favorites "What You Need," "The Party & The After Party," and "Loft Music." And his work remixing Roach proves just as enjoyable. Or as Southern Hospitality co-founder Davey Boy Smith puts it, "We didn't expect [Zodiac] to tap so deeply into [Roach Gigz'] very real love for under-the-counter cough mixture. But that's exactly what he did, in this gritty, overflowing, potent reinvention."Download Roach Gigz' latest remix here: http://media.audibletreats.com/Roach_Gigz-Got_Em_Like_Zodiac_RMX.mp3 .

MP3: Kyle Rapps - "Streets Move On" (Air Redux)
Second Single From On Air Offers Stoned, Stoic Take On Street LifeThe Song:Kyle Rapps is back, this time with the second single from his forthcoming mixtape On Air. For the Harlem-based rapper's latest project, Kyle enlisted producer and long-time collaborator Nate G, who flips samples from legendary French electronic band Air, while Kyle also called on a few friends for guest appearances, including Talib Kweli, for the previously released single "Universe Traveler," along with C-Rayz Walz and recent collaborators KRS-One and Homeboy Sandman.For this new single, however, Kyle goes for dolo with "Streets Move On," a track that carries the soul of the streets, while not shying away from its harsh realities in a way that allows it to transcend what has become so typical of rappers discussing street life. "I was daydreaming and got stoned off my imagination," explains Kyle. "I imagined a painting showing various cliches, each dealing with the harsh realities of city life. Then I thought to myself, Wouldn't it be dope if you could put this painting in reverse?" Nate G's production on the track - a straight ahead drum beat, serving as a bed for industrial and synth loops from Air's song "Mike Mills" - allows Kyle's vivid imagery to play the forefront as he raps, "A jungle's a jungle by any other name/ We pray, and stumble and struggle another day," and pulls everything together with a chorus, more catchy than most given the deep subject matter, built around the repeating line, "the streets move on with out you, money."Download "Streets Move On" here: http://media.audibletreats.com/Kyle_Rapps-Streets_Move_On.mp3 .The Background:By age 20, Princeton, New Jersey native Kyle Rapps started winning poetry slams in NYC with a concept-strong, socially sharp raw hip-hop delivery. Once he graduated from Rutgers University, he had already opened for big name acts like Wyclef Jean, Fat Joe, Talib Kweli and Dead Prez with his group, Thought Breakers. And once he decided to change his name to Kyle Rapps, he was getting ready to release the single "Love, Love" with KRS-One and Homeboy Sandman, which eventually went on to reach #1 on the college radio charts for hip-hop. Now, fresh off his critically acclaimed EP, RE-Edutainment, which features Joell Ortiz and KRS-One, and production from Kev Brown, Kyle has put together a new concept project called On Air, which samples from one of his favorite artists, the French-electro DJ duo, Air. The album features Talib Kweli and C-Rayz Walz, along with previous artists like KRS-One and Homeboy Sandman, and will be released this summer.

Hassaan Mackey & Apollo Brown are sharing the final single from the Daily Bread album, the introspective "Something." The chemistry between Apollo Brown and Hassaan Mackey are undeniable, fans and critics alike have spoken loud and clear, singing praises for the recently released album. In an album that is characterized by it's gritty sound and raw raps, "Something" is a reflective song about love, memories, loss, and pain. The heartfelt chorus echos through a filter with surprising emotional power drawn from the truth of the lyrical content being delivered by Hassaan: "Lose my mind to the memory of you / makes me think of all the sh*t we been through / Lose my mind to the thought of you / of you." Apollo combines the solid 1-2 hard snare with a crackling record, light chimes, and swirling strings.

MP3: Metermaids To Release Rooftop Shake Via Strange Famous Records On September 6
From Audible Treats.
New Album Features 9th Wonder, Sage Francis, DJ Rob Swift; "Graveyard Shift" Released As First Single(August 3, 2011 - Brooklyn, NY) Metermaids, the tag-team duo of rappers Sentence and Swell, are excited to announce their new LP, Rooftop Shake. The two Brooklynites have picked an A-team to work with for the album, enlisting 9th Wonder, DJ Rob Swift of the X-Ecutioners, and Sage Francis. Sage Francis is also responsible for the release of Rooftop Shake, through his label, Strange Famous Records, on September 6th.After releasing a slew of EP's over the past couple years, Metermaids perked the ears of a variety of big-name players, including Grammy Award-winning producer 9th Wonder, who produced half of the new LP. "It was obviously a dream come true," says Metermaids of working with 9th. "We hung out in North Carolina with him for six days, and made five songs together while we were there. It was a blast."Subsequently, Metermaids also caught the attention of Sage Francis after touring together. Impressed by the duo, Sage not only lent his assistance for the new project, but signed Metermaids to his Strange Famous Records this past year. "When we were putting together the album, Sage helped us pick out beats, he helped us with direction," explains Swell. "And he sent back two tracks with incredible verses on them," adds Sentence, alluding to "Bad Things" and "Kill The Crow," the latter of which also features Buck 65."Graveyard Shift," the lead single from Rooftop Shake, is a tribute to those who hustle hard, way past bedtime, with Rob Swift cutting up 9th Wonder's wailing, electric guitar-driven beat. "Neither of us sleep - ever - and when we heard 9th's beat, it gave us that vibe of being up all night," says Metermaids. "So that's exactly what we wrote about. 'Same shit, different night' sums up the song perfectly."As the album's lead single, "Graveyard Shift," is a good taste of what fans can expect from much of Rooftop Shake: a pairing of 9th Wonder's classic production with Metermaids' punk attitude and sharp delivery. Matt Stine held up the other half of production with tracks like the aforementioned "Bad Things," which Swell says is "in my top five favorite beats ever," while 9th Wonder also appears with a few guest verses of his own on tracks including "Gone" and the albums' title track "Rooftop Shake."Download "Graveyard Shift" here: http://media.audibletreats.com/Metermaids-Graveyard_Shift_Prod_9th_Wonder.mp3 .

Say what you will about Zach Randolph's defense, but the man knows how to steal headlines, if nothing else (hyuk, hyuk, hyuk). Just hours after it was reported that some fun evidence was discovered linking Randolph to large amounts of marijuana, TMZ (I know, I know) reported that Zach has also been implicated in a beating that took place early Wednesday morning at a strip club in Los Angeles.
According to the Gardena Police Department, officers responded to Starz strip club around 2 AM Wednesday morning — after someone called 911 claiming a man named Gary Ferguson had been badly beaten by someone in Zach Randolph's crew.
Ferguson told police Zach was present at the club — but did not strike him during the alleged attack.
But according to Ferguson, it's not the first time he's had a violent encounter with the Memphis Grizzlies player.
As TMZ previously reported, Ferguson sued Randolph last year — claiming the NBA star attacked him in a pizza joint back in 2008. That case is set to go to trial in September.
It's always a strip club, isn't it?
No charges have been filed of yet, but things could advance pretty quickly. This latest report only further ensures that Randolph's summer should be pretty miserable; it's obviously far too soon to determine his innocence or guilt, but the proceedings alone should put his name in the papers for all the wrong reasons over the coming months.
- Sports Fan With Attitude - May 27, 2010 at 7:16 PM
Right on the heels of the drug dealer story dude…go Zach! Of course what kind of major drug dealer would he be if there were no strip club beat downs in the mix? Dealin' and beatin' on folks go together like chips and salsa bro. I'm waiting for the story about Zach doing a drive-by as payback for invading his territory or just cuz he felt like it!
- OLD GUNSLINGER FAN - May 27, 2010 at 8:18 PM
Modern atheletes at a strip club with their crew. Boy that sure is unusual. Why do these jack-offs continue this behavior? Pacman, Ray Lewis, Ben Raplesberger, Tank Johnson, The Washington BULLETS, ETC. ETC. ETC. "Great" citizens continually getting away with murder, rape, dogfighting, assaults ETC.ETC.ETC. I think I'll stick to Golf where infidelity seems tame in comparison. Stop watching the NFL AND NBA until they clean their s#it up. Makes Bonds and Clemens look like angels by comparison.

As a community college student, you are eligible to receive education tax credits that can reduce the expense of your education. There are two education tax credits available, the Hope Credit and the Lifetime Learning Credit. The credits are based on education expenses paid for you, your spouse, or your dependents. The credits are allowed for qualified education expenses paid in 2008 for an academic period that begins in 2008 or during the first three months of 2009.
The Hope Credit
For the 2008 tax year, a family or student can claim up to $1,800, for each eligible student for up to two tax years (100% of the first $1,200 and 50% of the second $1,200 paid for qualified expenses). The Hope credit is only available until each student's first two years of postsecondary education are complete.
The exact amount of the Hope credit also depends on a family's income, the amount of qualified tuition and fees paid, and the amount of certain scholarships and allowances subtracted from tuition. The total credit is also based on how many eligible students are in a family. This differs from the Lifetime Learning Credit which sets a maximum dollar amount for a family.
Qualified expenses do not include room and board, insurance, transportation, or other similar personal, living, or family expenses. Qualified expenses may include fees for books, supplies, and equipment only if the fees must be paid to the school for the student's enrollment or attendance. In addition, qualified expenses may include student activity fees if the fee must be paid to the school for the student's enrollment or attendance.
Who Qualifies?
The Taxpayer: An eligible taxpayer must file a federal tax return and owe taxes to claim the Hope credit. The taxpayer must also claim an eligible student as a dependent on the tax return, unless the credit is for the taxpayer or the taxpayer's spouse. (This means the eligible taxpayer may also be the eligible student.) In 2008, taxpayers cannot claim a Hope credit if their modified adjusted gross income (AGI) is $58,000 or more for a single taxpayer ($116,000 or more for those filing a joint return). The Hope credit amount is reduced gradually for families with incomes between $48,000 and $58,000 ($96,000 and $116,000 for joint returns).
The Student: An eligible student must be enrolled at least half-time for at least one academic period beginning in 2008 at an eligible program leading to a degree or certificate at an eligible school AND can not have completed the first two years of undergraduate study. You may claim the credit yourself if you are not claimed as a dependent by another taxpayer. (Once again, this means that the eligible student may also be the eligible taxpayer.) Students convicted of a federal or state drug felony before the end of 2008 are not eligible for the Hope credit.
A family may claim a Lifetime Learning credit, a Hope credit, and an exclusion from gross income for certain distributions from qualified state tuition programs or education IRAs as long as the same student isn't used as the basis for each credit or exclusion AND the family doesn't exceed the Lifetime Learning maximum per family.
The Lifetime Learning Credit
What Is It?
The Lifetime Learning Credit is a nonrefundable tax credit available to individuals who file a tax return and owe taxes. The amount of the credit is subtracted from the taxes owed, rather than reducing taxable income as with a tax deduction. Individuals who do not pay taxes are not eligible for a Lifetime Learning credit. If a taxpayer owes less in taxes than the amount of Lifetime Learning tax credit they are eligible for, they are only eligible for a credit equal to the amount of taxes they owe.
A family may claim a tax credit of up to $2,000 per tax year for the taxpayer, taxpayer's spouse, or any eligible dependents for an unlimited number of tax years. The amount of the Lifetime Learning credit is 20% of the first $10,000 of qualified educational expenses paid for all eligible students. Therefore, the maximum amount of a Lifetime Learning tax credit is $2,000. The Lifetime Learning credit is available for all years of postsecondary education and for courses taken to acquire or improve job skills, unlike the Hope credit which is only available for two years.
The actual amount of the credit depends on a family's income, the amount of qualified tuition and fees paid, and the amount of certain scholarships and allowances subtracted from tuition. This credit is family-based (up to $2,000 per tax return), unlike the Hope credit which is based on the number of eligible dependents in a family.
Who Qualifies?
The Taxpayer: An eligible taxpayer must file a tax return and owe taxes to claim the credit. The taxpayer must also claim the eligible student as a dependent unless the credit is for the taxpayer or the taxpayer's spouse. (This means the eligible taxpayer may also be the eligible student.) In 2008, those with a modified Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) of $58,000 or more (if single), or $116,000 or more (for married taxpayers filing a joint return) cannot claim a Lifetime Learning Credit. AGI limits were increased by $1,000 for single taxpayers and $2,000 married taxpayers for the 2008 tax year. The Lifetime Learning Tax Credit amount is reduced gradually for families with incomes between $48,000 and $58,000 if single, or $96,000 and $116,000 if married and filing jointly. Taxpayers that claim the Hope credit or tuition and fees deduction for a student are not eligible to claim the Lifetime Learning credit for the same student.
The Student: An eligible student may be enrolled in an eligible program leading to an undergraduate or graduate degree at an eligible school during the calendar year OR may be enrolled in any course of instruction at an eligible school to acquire/improve the student's job skills during the calendar year. Students may claim the credit themselves if they are not claimed as a dependent by another taxpayer. (Once again, this means that the eligible student may also be the eligible taxpayer.)
How Do You Get The Credits?
To apply for the credit, the taxpayer must report the amount of qualified tuition and fees paid as well as the amount of certain scholarships, grants, and untaxed income used to pay the tuition and fees. Schools must send this information to taxpayers and to the IRS by January 31, 2009, in the form of a 1098-T statement. Taxpayers will use this information and their own records about tuition and fees paid when they fill out the IRS Form 8863 to claim the tax credit. The statement sent by the school will also include contact information for someone at the school who can answer questions about the information on the form. A taxpayer may wish to talk to a tax advisor for help in calculating the amount of its credit.
When Is It Available?
Generally, the deduction is allowed for qualified tuition and expenses paid in 2008 in connection with enrollment at an institution of higher education during 2008 or for an academic period beginning in 2008 or in the first three months of 2009. For instance, if you paid $1,500 in December 2008 for qualified tuition for a spring 2008 semester that begins in January 2009, that $1,500 can be used to figure the 2008 deduction.
For answers to some frequently asked questions, refer to http://www.irs.gov/faqs/faq-kw52.html and for additional information on education credits, refer to Publication 970, Tax Benefits for Education.

Inverted nipples fold inward instead of pointing out. Women with
inverted nipples may have a hard time getting started with
breast-feeding. A breast-feeding baby latches on more
easily to a nipple when it is erect.
To find out whether you have flat or inverted nipples:
Special techniques and breast shells sometimes are recommended to
prepare inverted nipples for breast-feeding. But how well they work is
questionable. Inverted nipples may naturally become more erect after the birth
of your baby. Your health professional or a lactation consultant is usually
able to help you and your baby start breast-feeding if your nipples stay
Regardless of whether you plan to breast-feed, call your health
professional if you notice that your nipples have changed from looking erect to
being inverted.

Walkie-Talkies in Italy?
We are 3 travelling to Italy in May 2013. We need devices to stay in contact among us while on vacation - would our "family band" walkie-talkies work for us in Italy?
We are 3 travelling to Italy in May 2013. We need devices to stay in contact among us while on vacation - would our "family band" walkie-talkies work for us in Italy?
The short answer is no.
I have no personal experience but you may want to look at a thread from last week: https://www.ricksteves.com/graffiti/helpline/index.cfm/rurl/topic/98058/2-way-radios.html
Teresa, Bringing two-way Radios from the U.S. is NOT a real good idea, as the frequency bands are different than those of similar European products. In some cases, U.S. radios operate on the same bands as emergency services in Europe. If you're caught interfering with their communications, you could face severe penalties. That WON'T be a "pleasant holiday memory". Cell phones and text messages are a relatively inexpensive way to keep in touch. Happy travels!
Ditto Ken. Cellphones and texting work great! Bring your own (after you get an EU plan thru your provider) or buy some cheap $20 Italian phones and a re-fillable SIM card. When my Cousin went with us two years ago, she got a free loaner phone from Verizon,and a lo cost EU talk and text plan. I got a lo cost plan thru AT&T, We texted each other all of the time. It worked great.
I thought my wife and I needed cell phones to stay in contact while on vacation since we can't seem to go to the grocery store together without texting each other. Turns out they were a bigger expense and harder to use than we anticipated and we ended up not actually needing them. Traveling makes you get out of your comfort zone for a little while and change the way you see things. I realized that it wasn't long ago that we didn't have cell phones or radios and could manage to stay in contact just fine. It is also nice to sit together at a restaurant and talk to each other instead of staring at our phones.

No problems with performance runs good no lack of power.No pressure when oil filler cap taken off to indicate broken ring etc.Any info would be helpful..Thanks - Visitor
Answer 1
Its high mileage it could be "blow bye", a cylinder leakage check may show the true health of the engine. Many automotive repair shops have a machine that generates an inert non flammable low pressure smoke that looks similar to cigar smoke. The intake manifold is sealed off, and smoke is put into the engines intake manifold. The smoke then fills the engines crankcase and if there are any vacuum or oil leaks from gaskets, hoses, or housing smoke emits from the source of the leak. - patrick mannion

"I'm not looking for a big splash immediately;
Polston developed the nail polish about 20 years ago when he was commissioned to create a peel-off polish for a Klutz project. Because children would be handling it, the polish needed to essentially be safe even if ingested, so he found a formula that was non-toxic and safe for children. After completing that project, Polston decided to create a standard nail polish that was non-toxic and reasonably chip resistance. He began gathering distributors in 2000 and the polish is now sold in thousands of retail stores under a number of different labels.
"For little girls and their mothers that are looking for nail polish, it's the cat's meow," Polston said.
However, the safety kids nail polish market is getting crowded, and Polston said the product doesn't need to be pushed much further in that area. With Strategic eMarketing, the new marketing push will be to reach out to salons and beauty parlors. Since the Go Natural polish (http://gonatural.biz/

See Me After Class is a funny, honest, practical guide with hundreds of tales and tips from veterans from across the country. It's been called, "the book you need to read after the books they make you read."
The book is meant to keep the great teachers of the future in the classroom long enough to become great, and it deals head-on with the challenges not covered in training. Read it when a lesson goes horribly wrong, your whole class "forgets" a major project, or a parent curses at you in front of the kids. Pull it out at lunch on a bad day, or Sunday night as you battle those six-more-hours-till-Monday stomach cramps. This is meant to get you to school tomorrow.
While other books cover the eyes of readers to keep from scaring them, See Me After Class asks teachers to be brutally honest about how tough teaching is and whether the rewards are still worth it.
You can uncover your eyes now, teachers. The answer is yes.

Just a small note here, as Lyndon Poskitt confirmed in a RalyRaidio call-in, KTM have already started on their next generation Rallye bike, and it is confirmed to have EFI, as EU laws state that all plated motorcycles must have EFi after 2015 (or '17, don't remember). But fuel restrictions in an endurance off road race? Not sure, as pilots always carry extra fuel to make up for navigation mistakes. I think restricting fuel on a race like the Dakar will never happen, it's just that to pass scrutineering you will probably need a "green" sticker or some sort of documentation that the original bike/engine conforms to road - legal emissions / specs etc
Yes, certainly, the KTM Will have to go to EFI - if only to dovetail into their production bikes. Not a good look, if you don't have faith in your tech, and use carbs, methinks.
EFI being compulsory - not surprised. Though, if it really reads that way, it's complete and utter BS. I'd have to say it will come down to use of only EU certified induction. And, EFI / DFI, may be the only way to achieve that, or, it may be the way to totally "lock" the induction, if you get my drift.
Heck, we are not that far off from ABS becoming mandatory for road use in the EU. Though, I've heard / read there may be exemptions / loop holes for some types of bikes. Anyone remember the Husky / BMW ABS that a few journos tested last year? Husky / BM, getting a jump on things, I'd say.
As Stupid as fuel restrictions sound to Us, don't ever, say never. It's the sort of crap Honda would push for, and it may also be the sort of thing that may be put in place, to placate the Enviro Nazis. Yep, restrict the vehicles in competition, but not the support / event vehicles, and not the **Zillions** of spectators getting out in the Boonies to watch proceedings. Ah, the mindset of 'those that care", can be a strange, and frightening thing.
Make it so you've got a maximum fuel load, with a controlled reserve, that you get big penalties for tapping into. Quite the "control nightmare".
I absolutely don't approve of that sort of thing, but, as I get older, and as I've seen so much change to our sport, nothing, and I mean Nothing, would surprise me, be it Hondas Influence and Shenanigans, ASOs rulings, and the "Fun Police's" ever growing power.
The **Zillions** Of Spectators :
Is this not the most Awesome thing?
To say South America has embraced the Dakar, is one of the greatest understatements of all time.
I'd say that the bidding to have the event pass through a country, is full on, if not downright nasty. Really, the drongos that go on about ASO being in the laps of BMW / Mini, or say, KTM, have no idea.
ASO, I would assume, are getting serious money, from various countries' Governments. It would be relatively cheap advertising for the countries involved.
South America, is a economic giant, in the making. Although, I believe for many countries there, they already are there. Just the potential bike / car sales in South America, would justify the money manufacturers would be spending. Look to the amount of high end SUVs, out in the never never, watching stages. Burro's, and old dungers, are rapidly being replaced by the sort of toys we 'westerners' have had for so long.
