USC Shuts Out UCLA, 5-0, For Third Straight Victory
March 27, 2004
LOS ANGELES - Freshman Ian Kennedy threw 7 1/3 scoreless innings Saturday as the USC Trojans shut out the UCLA Bruins, 5-0, in nonconference action at Dedeaux Field. Kennedy struck out eight while scattering seven hits with one walk. Junior Michael Friedman earned his second save with 1 2/3 no-hit innings for the Trojans' third straight victory and fourth in five games.
USC (12-13) has now won 11 straight games at home against UCLA (13-10). It was the fourth shutout for the Trojans this season.
Kennedy (4-0) worked out of several jams in a pitchers' duel with UCLA's Bryan Beck through the first six innings. In the UCLA first and runners at first and second, Kennedy got designated hitter Wes Whisler to ground into a 3-6-1 double play to end the inning. With a full count and runners at first and second in the sixth with one out, Kennedy struck out right fielder Matt Thayer as catcher Jeff Clement completed the unconventional double play by throwing out Brett McMillan at third.
For the season, Kennedy has a 1.88 ERA. In 43 innings, he has allowed 33 hits, 11 runs (nine earned), 15 walks and 62 strikeouts with opponents hitting .210 against him.
Beck (2-2) allowed a run (unearned) on four hits in 5 1/3 innings for the Bruins with three walks and three strikeouts.
The Trojans scored in the sixth when Joey Metropoulos, who reached on an error by third baseman Preston Griffin and advanced to second on a Baron Frost sacrificed, recorded the first run on freshman Daniel Perales' RBI single to right. Perales went 2-for-3 and is now leading the Trojans with a .348 batting average.
Friedman entered with one out in the top of the seventh and needed only two pitches to retire McMillan and Ryan McCarthy. He has not allowed a run in 10 2/3 innings of relief this season, allowing just two hits with a walk, 10 strikeouts and .057 opponents' batting average.
Clement led off the eighth with his fourth home run of the season with a solo shot over the Dedeaux Field scoreboard in right center off UCLA reliever Adam Simon. USC scored three more runs in the inning (two unearned), including back-to-back sacrifice fly balls by designated hitter Jon Brewster and third baseman Billy Hart.
UCLA left fielder Anthony Norman went 2-for-3 on the afternoon with a walk.
The series will conclude with a 1 p.m. start tomorrow. The game will be broadcast live, along with Gametracker live stats, on usctrojans.com. It will also mark UCLA head coach Gary Adams' final game at Dedeaux Field. Adams, in his 30th season at UCLA, is retiring at the end of the season.

Survey Methodology The 2014 Georgia's State of the State Poll was a telephone survey of randomly selected adults in the state of Georgia. Five hundred (500) Georgia adults were interviewed by landline and cellular telephone between Feb. 5 and Feb. 18, 2014. The margin of sampling error for the survey is +/- 4.4%. This survey was conducted through the use of Random Digit Dialing (RDD). A sample of households in the area was selected via random digit dialing. The random sample used in the 2014 Georgia's State of the State Poll was provided by SSI. SSI screens each selected telephone number to eliminate non-working numbers, disconnected numbers, and business numbers to improve the efficiency of the sample, reducing the amount of time interviewers spend calling non-usable numbers. Each of these randomly generated telephone numbers is contacted by one of SSI interviewers. This selection process ensures that every adult (18 years of age or older) in the household has an equally likely chance of being included in the survey. Interviews were completed with 500 randomly selected adults in Georgia from a sample of 12,725 randomly selected telephone numbers. The data have been weighted to account for known biases of telephone surveys. The results presented here have been weighted to reflect current population demographics as reflected in the most recent available Census data. The data in the 2014 Georgia's State of the State Poll are weighted by the number of adults to equalize the chances that any one adult would be selected for inclusion. The data are also weighted by respondent sex, age and race. In addition to providing results for the state as a whole, some findings also are broken down by the four major regions of the state: North, Middle, South and Atlanta metropolitan area. The map illustrates the counties in each region.

Thank you for recommending "". Your recommendation has been successfully processed.
Friend 1
December 8, 2011
We all like to hang around and associate with people who have the same interests as us. It's human nature. And it's no different in the world of bodybuilding. Bodybuilders like to hang out with other bodybuilders, and figure competitors like to hang out with other figure competitors. And because much of this camaraderie occurs through social media these days, I thought I might provide some pointers on how to increase the number of bodybuilding friends you have on Facebook. You might have a hard time locating these elusive profiles, so pay close attention to the information I'm about to provide.
You'd think that you may have to type in a search term to find bodybuilder friends on Facebook, but you'd only be wasting your time. My first recommendation is quite simple and takes only seconds: Just find one profile picture that shows someone posing in the gym locker room with their underwear bunched and rolled up to imitate a thong, and you've accomplished the first and most important step in gaining thousands of new bodybuilding friends. From here, it only gets easier.
After locating your first bodybuilding profile, you'll need to "friend" him. After he accepts your friendship, click immediately on his friend list and you'll notice that it doesn't contain anyone who isn't a bodybuilder or who doesn't work out. Why? Because bodybuilders don't talk to people who don't at least work out. I'm sure you'd find this rule in the Facebook fine print if you looked hard enough. If a bodybuilder sends you a friend request, you have no choice: You must accept him as a friend. After you locate his friend list, simply mass message everyone on the list, and your own friend list will grow quickly.
You'll find that some of your friends will have blocked their lists so that you can't view their friends. This usually happens when the person in question is slightly embarrassed about being known as a bodybuilder and prefers to hide it from his normal friends. What are normal friends? They're the people who can pass by a mirror without looking in it three times, backing up to get another look and then turning, only to scoff at the chick who had the nerve to roll her eyes at you for admiring yourself in the mirror. You have to get slightly creative and do a bit more work when the list is blocked, but here are some tips you can use:
One major rule that I can't forget to mention is you absolutely cannot friend any spouses/boyfriends/girlfriends who are in any of the bodybuilder's picture albums. This is considered more of a criminal act than selling steroids to an eight-year-old. Keep in mind that bodybuilders watch out for their "bros," so you stand to lose a lot of Facebook friends when word gets out. This isn't the most secure bunch, so you can admire the pictures — but do not, under any circumstance, send a friend request. If you don't know what an insecure bodybuilder looks like, trust me: You don't want to.
The last pointer I can give you is to check out the groups that your bodybuilder friends have "liked." These will most often include gym pages, website pages, supplement pages, and what I like to call "vote for me" pages. Vote-for-me pages are pages that people have posted their pictures on, and they then shamelessly beg their friends to vote for them so that they can win an online contest and finally land that lucrative sponsorship deal that has eluded them for so long.
With the invaluable information I've given you today, you should feel confident that you are that much closer to maxing out your friends list despite having no idea who those friends really are. You won't care, though, because in this game it isn't about who your friends are — it's about how many friends you have. One of those friends could be the owner of a large supplement company that wants you as their spokesperson. It happens all the time, doesn't it? Yeah, it sure does. Hey, just sayin'.

Off-Road Jeep Machines - Jp NationPosted in Project Vehicles on January 1, 2008 Comment (0)
Have you ever been walking down a crowded sidewalk and bumped into a person who looks like a total freak show? Maybe they've got a Mohawk haircut with metal spikes stuck through their cheeks, or maybe they're just dressed completely in orange. Point is, you think to yourself, "What in the heck were they thinking when they woke up this morning?" Regardless of whether or not they fall into your category of moral or social values, you've still gotta share the air with them.
Sometimes it's a lot like that with the Jeep Shots submissions we get. We could tell you stories about some of the scary fabrication we've been witness to over the years, and some of the most gawd-awful, airbrushed paint jobs still give us nightmares. While we still can't bring ourselves to show you any of the latter, we are trying to open our minds to those who dare to be a little different. Hence the tiger-fur Jeep or the '80s acid flashback you'll spot in this story. And, of course, there will always be the tried-and-true vintage Jeeps, hard-core off-road machines, and dual-purpose weekend warriors and daily drivers that make you all warm and fuzzy.
Drew Burroughs first came to the pages of Jp by skying his silver '70 CJ for the Sept. '03 cover ("Coolest Jeep Ever"). Fast forward five years, and Drew is working at Poly Performance and skying the company's silver JK. Sure, he's in the industry now, but Drew is technically still a Jp reader, and this was one of the best action shots we had on hand to open this story up with.
Dave Gregg of Andrews, Texas, gave his '80 CJ-5 a full fur job in tiger-print fabric, including a tail. A 4-inch lift clears way for 33-inch Interco Trxsus STS tires on steel wheels. Dave didn't specify, but we're betting the dual exhaust signals the little CJ is running a V-8 to put some power down to the stock AMC 20 rear and Dana 30 front.
Even though Noah Bedell's YJ is only sporting a set of 30x9.50-15 Remington Mud Brutes under the stock suspension, there's just something about the way he's hitting the stream at full blast that makes for a killer photo. Maybe it's the six roof-mounted lights or the sheer violence of it all. We just know we like it.
OK, it's her dad's Jeep. Dennis Jansen is a member of the Eastern 4 Wheeler's Club and sent us a photo of his worked-over TJ taken at Paragon Park in Pennsylvania. While he didn't send any specs on the rig, the bead locks, Swamper tires, and other upgrades make it look like Dennis's daughter is going to learn to wheel in style.
From Trinity, North Carolina, Gary Roberts sent us these showoff shots of his mostly stock '47 CJ-2A. Still sporting the factory flathead, T-90, and Spicer 18 as well as Dana 25 front and Dana 41 rear, Gary lists the estimated value of his Willys as $1,500. Gary, the check is in the mail. The TSL Swampers are a skinny 28x8.50-15 size and fit with the stock suspension. We like the two-tone mud treatment, Gary. Don't wash it.
Before we even read Mike Carter's letter, we thought his '90 Cherokee looked a lot like an XJ version of the General Lee. Sure enough, Mike lists the paint as General Lee orange and purposefully lifted the turbine mags off an '86 Cherokee because of their similarity to the General's wheels. The little General sports a 6-inch lift and 33-inch Pro Comp Mud Terrains as well as a homebuilt winch bumper to house the 8,000-pound Ramsey. Mike hails from Spruce Grove in Alberta, Canada, so maybe he'll paint a maple leaf on the roof instead of a rebel flag.
Daniel Parsons of Ignacio, Colorado, sent us this photo to dispute the myth that the Rock Gods get angry. We agree, Daniel. We don't see any rocks in the photo. Daniel's '82 CJ-7 runs a built 400hp AMC 390 from an AMX and sports a Dynatrac Dana 60 rear and Dynatrac Dana 44 front with ARBs and 3.73s. The 37-inch Swamper SSRs are never going to wear out unless you keep the rubber side down, Daniel.
If you weren't alive in the '80s, feast your eyes on this time machine. Bill Berkebile spent the early '80s beating this '75 CJ-5 nearly to death in the mountains near Somerset, Pennsylvania, before turning it into this. The drivetrain is comprised of the original 304, T-15 tranny, Dana 20 T-case, and Dana 30 front and Dana 44 rear. The gearing has been changed to 5.38 to help turn the 44-inch Ground Hawgs, but we don't hold out hope the axleshafts or steering linkage will survive much more than a mole hill with that much weight to push around. Regardless, Bill is happy wowing crowds with the Jeep's exhaust flamethrowers, old-school graphics, and plethora of Daylighters.
If we were smart, we would've called the buildup of Jp's Project JR done when it resembled Graham Reese's '01 XJ. The 60th Anniversary Edition runs a 3-inch Rough Country lift to clear the 31-inch tires wrapped around the stock rims. A quartet of PIAA 510 series lights mount to the Daystar Four Real Steel front bumper and a Yakima roof rack holds extra gear.
There's just something about an intermediate '72-'75 CJ-5 that's inherently cool. Rick Standley of Yakima, Washington, must've thought so too because he nabbed one, then outfitted it with a 4-inch Skyjacker suspension, 11/42-inch Con-Ferr shackles, a CV rear driveshaft, and 33-inch BFG MT tires. The front bumper holds a Warn 8,000-pound winch, but otherwise, the AMC 304 V-8, three-speed tranny, Dana 20 T-case, and Dana 30 front and Dana 44 rear axles are factory issue.
Gary Edwards from Perth, Australia, just wanted to "send us a piccy" of his '76 CJ-7. He even wrote "g'day." And we thought that was just an act for Fosters commercials. Gary's CJ sports the factory drivetrain as well as a 4-inch spring lift and a 1.5-inch body lift to swing the 33-inch BFG MT tires on 15x8 American Racing rims. Most of Gary's wheeling consists of sand dunes and West Coast highways. Having experienced Australian corrugated roads firsthand, we'll stick with our rockcrawl trails. They're much easier on the vehicle.
Glenn Smith of Apopka, Florida, owns two similarly painted CJs. One is a '59 CJ-3B and the other is a '60 CJ-5. They both sport totally rebuilt F-head drivetrains and Lock-Rites front and rear as well as 211/42-inch spring lifts. The CJ-5 gets down with a Ramsey REP 8000 winch, 33x12.50-15 Mud King tires, and a factory hardtop on the original body. Glenn has owned it since 1980. The 3B runs 33x10.50-15 Swampers and was treated to a new replacement body because the original was shot when Glenn bought it in 2002.
Lloyd Adams of St. Joseph, Missouri, shared this photo of his collection of CJ-2A and CJ-3A Willys Jeeps. Aside from the slightly lifted '48 2A in the upper right, they all appear to be stock. We'll take a green one and a red one, please Lloyd. And throw in the big garage in the background while you're at it.
Oh man, would we ever love to have a restored GPW like Jim Diamond's '42. Split combat rims, a Browning .50-cal in the back, every pioneering tool known to World War II, and even a '44 BSA folding paratrooper bike in the bed. Jim actually managed to get five Flying Tigers of the American Volunteer Group who flew for the Chinese government under Claire Chennault to sign the hood. Way to keep history alive, Jim.
At least that's how Chris Orr opened his letter to us. Chris and his wife, Nora, hail from Cupertino, California, and are fairly proud of their '02 TJ Sport. Upgrades to the factory 4.0L automatic Jeep include a 4.5-inch Rubicon Super Flex suspension, front and rear ARBs with 4.10 gears, 33-inch BFG MTs, a Warn 9500 winch, and more bumper and armor parts than we can list. After all, we are morons.
This '94 YJ was built to "sit in the driveway and leak until I take it in the woods to punish it for sitting around during the week." Hey, we can't make this up. That's a direct quote from Christ Kurelja of Succasunna, New Jersey. With a 4-inch lift, skyjacker shocks, and 33x12.50-15 TrXus Mud Terrains, he's got a good start on tackling the soggy wheeling available in New Jersey. Add a 4.0L with a slew of upgrades, and you've got a good wheeling Jeep. We'd suggest a rear locker and a snorkel to keep that engine safe, but he chases quads around with no problems as it is.
From Jacksonville, Florida, Billy Powell sent us some pictures of his big '84 CJ-8. With front and rear Strong Axle high-pinion Dana 60s packing alloy shafts and 4.88 gears front and rear, you wouldn't think he'd have any problems in the axle department. Then you notice the set of 37x13.50R17 Toyo Open Country mud tires mounted on Centerline I.C.E. DOT-approved bead-lock rims and see all of that is motivated by an Edelbrock-injected, 383ci, Chevy V-8 pushing the power through a custom-built 700R4 automatic transmission with a 2,600-rpm stall converter and an Atlas II 3.8:1 transfer case, second thoughts arise.
No matter what you do, an '88 Wagoneer isn't going to be a sports car. Don't tell Larry Miller of Blissfield, Michigan, that, because stabbing an AMC 401 with Edelbrock aluminum heads, an Edelbrock cam, an Edelbrock intake, an Offroad Thunder 650 carburetor, Harlan Sharp Roller Rockers, and Thorley Headers into it sure is a step in that direction. The TF727 got a Trans-go shift kit, while the NP229 just screams uncle from all the abuse. Skyjacker 4-inch lift springs clear 325/60R15 BFG All-Terrains wrapped around 15x10 Turbines.
This '05 LJ in Rubicon Flavor sports a six-speed NVG246 tranny, a 6-inch Nth Degree lift, and Bilstein 5100 shocks to clear 315/75R16 Goodyear MT/Rs on the stock Rubicon rims. Don Nywening of Wind Gap, Pennsylvania, also mentions that he added a Warn 9.5ti winch, a Wilderness Expedition rack, a Tuffy Products rear security drawer, Source onboard air, a Hi-Lift Jack, and a Cobra CB. With all that weight, more power was needed, and it came in the form of a Jet Performance chip, an Airaid intake and throttle-body spacer, and a Banks Monster Exhaust. Protection comes in the form of a homebuilt steering-box skid, a Pro Comp front bumper, a Genuine Steel rear bumper, and a stainless steel front differential skid.
This '06 Rubicon Unlimited replaced Chef's '04 Wrangler X that he sank in a pond just before Christmas 2005. This Cincinnati resident tells us that after dunking the X, it smelled like dead frogs until he traded it in for this Unlimited. The Unlimited is enough to get there and get back. With a 2-inch BDS lift, stock air lockers front and rear, and stock Goodyear tires, there should be no problem in overdriving the drivetrain. Chef added a K&N intake to the engine and takes along a Tabor winch and Hi-Lift Jack wherever he goes.
Or at least that's what Terry Drury's wife thinks of his '67 Jeepster. In 14 months, it went from a rusted-out Jeep to this beauty you see here. A 4x5-foot piece of 18-gauge was used to make patch panels, while the hood was replaced with a fiberglass unit and the top was replaced with one from Bestop. The 225ci V-6 is still providing power to the stock axles, with a Detroit Truetrac added to the rear. Super Swamper 31x9.5R15 TrXus Radials wrap the American Racing rims, and a 2-inch lift for the rear fixed the dragging rearend look.
We think that Jacob Taden of Steamboat Springs, Colorado, must be a comedian. He tells us that he built this '88 MJ to be a good, reliable, off-road, trail Jeep. We've yet to see a good trail Jeep that was reliable, but with a Skyjacker 3-inch lift, Skyjacker front lower control arms, and Skyjacker Nitro 800 shocks controlling things, maybe Jacob has a chance. He also added JKS bar-pin eliminators, while the rear got a 3-inch add-a-leaf and Mickey Thompson Classic II rims were shod with TrXus Mud Terrains in a 31x10.50R15 size. The five-speed manual, inline-six, and NP231 were all left unmolested.
After only a billion hours and working through some snowstorms, Pam and Horace Sutton of Burlington, New Jersey, have done a nice frame-up restoration on their '83 CJ-8. The 258ci six-cylinder got a Weber carburetor and an HEI distributor while the transmission and transfer case were just rebuilt. The axles received 4.56 gears, lockers, one-piece axles (in the rear), and four-wheel disc brakes.
We just like the irony of using an '04 TJ Rubicon for something that has nothing to do with its namesake. Chris Miles of Ontario, Canada, sent us quite a few pictures of his stock Rubicon at the Sweet Peas Mud Bog. We have to say, it was dirty in all of the pictures, and we don't even know what its real color is. So here's a picture of a stock Rubicon swimming in the mud. And, presumably, having a grand old time doing it.
This '00 Wrangler belongs to Mike Mische of Long Beach, California, and from the looks of things, he knows how to have fun wheeling his Jeep. This picture was taken in Moab, Utah, as were all the others he sent in. All of them make us want to get out of the office. The 4-inch Rubicon Express short-arm lift provides clearance for the 33x12.50 Goodyear MTR tires wrapped around 15x8 Eagle Alloy rims. He stuffed ARBs in the front and swapped in rear Ford 8.8 axles, geared the Jeep to 4.56, and took it wheeling.
How do you get from a mundane grocery-getter to a flex monster? Start with a '97 Grand Cherokee, sell it to Chris Clayton of Morgan Hill, California, and let him loose. Chris left the stock 5.2L V-8 and automatic, but swapped in an NP231 for part-time action and longevity. He then added a 4-inch Rubicon Express lift with adjustable arms, a Trail Ready front bumper, front and rear TeraFlex spacers, a heavy-duty Rubicon Express track bar and track bar mount, a PSC steering box, and 32x11.50R15 Bridgestone Dueller AT and MT tires on 15x8 Rock Crawler rims.
We only wish that we'd get shots like this one from Scott Mason of Richmond, Virginia. However, most of our sunsets are seen from inside the office, not out on a trail with a '92 Cherokee sporting a 3-inch lift with Pro Comp shocks in the front and Dakota rear leaf springs with Napa Gold shocks out back. To make those scenic overlooks more attainable, Scott put an Aussie Locker in the front Dana 30 and stuffed 32x11.50R15 BFG Mud Terrains around some 15x8 Cragar Soft 8s.
This '88 Wagoneer comes to us from Richard Best of Four Oaks, North Carolina. Richard chose to leave well enough alone, and the Wag still sports the stock AMC 360, TF-727, and NP229. Power is then sent to the front and rear Dana 44s that are still held in place by the stock leaf springs, and it's spinning a set of 15x8 Cherokee rims wrapped in 29x10.50R15 tires. Richard took this Wagoneer on his honeymoon and lost the driveshaft. We can only imagine what his new bride thought about that fiasco.
This '06 Rubicon hails from an hour and a half north of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Since Jake Stahlnecker is in the Navy, he's on a limited budget, and so far, the Jeep has only received a 2-inch budget boost, but that doesn't stop him from wheeling in Charlottesville, Virginia, every chance he gets.
John McConnel from South Toms River, New Jersey, sent us his '77 CJ-7, which he calls Triple 7. The stock engine was tossed in favor of a Ford 302 V-8, but the stock T150 three-speed transmission and Dana 20 transfer case stayed, as did the Dana 30 front axle and AMC 20 rear. Moser one-piece shafts were added to the rear along with an Aussie Locker, and a 2-inch Pro Comp spring lift coupled with a 1-inch custom body lift provide clearance for the 33x12.50R15 Courser Radials. A 4WD Hardware fiberglass tub replaced the stock rust bucket, and a Matkins Extreme Duty Frame was tapped in favor of the spindly stock fare.

Morrissey mix tapes: Aching to relive your teenage angst?
For years you've been able to buy their clothing lines, perfume and even - if some of the dodgier eBay offerings are to be believed - their organs. Now you can buy a piece of the celebrity soul.
Celebrity CD compilations - mixed albums of favourite or inspiring tracks, compiled by the star themselves - are storming the music industry. Hundreds of artists, including the Rolling Stones, Sheryl Crow and Willie Nelson, have done one. The personal mixed tape for an In Style age, they provide the ultimate voyeuristic experience.
"They allow you to have a peek into a famous artist's record collection," says Stewart Hanna, distribution manager of DMC Records, Australia, the local distribution arm for the British label of the same name that is releasing its 26th celeb compilation on Monday.
"Each CD has its sleeve notes which explain why, in the artists words, they chose [each] track. [Some are like] short novels, detailing [the artist's] upbringing and childhood."
So many are on the market now - British label Azuli and American coffee chain Starbucks, for example, are also pumping them out with astonishing regularity.
Aching to relive your teenage angst in a music-induced fog of Catcher in the Rye type introspection? Choose Morrissey's collection (from DMC's Under the Influence series), and listen to the obscure track Arts and Crafts Spectacular - a quirky ditty about a quilter being pipped at the post by an upstart named Tracey - by American band Sparks, while reading the former Smiths frontman's accompanying liner notes. "At 14, I want to live with these people, to be - at last! - in the company of creatures of my own species."
Those considering therapy could lull themselves into a state of self-love with Nora Jones's collection, from the Starbucks Artist's Choice series. (The melancholy strains of Billie Holiday, Johnny Cash and Etta James will always convince you of your comparative sanity.)
For those nights when the I-wish-I-was-a-rock-star-instead-of-an-accountant feelings threaten to take over, DMC's Back To Mine series transports you, musically, to your favourite artist's house at the end of an all-night binge. "You've got to imagine that you've all staggered back to Everything But the Girl's house, and that's what [songwriter] Ben Watt will put on the stereo, while you have a drink and what have you," Hanna explains.
Just where did this trend come from? Dean Buchanan, program director of radio station Nova 96.9, says it's an offshoot of the existing compilation CDs - the dinner party mixes, the '80s mixes, the DJ mixes like the Ministry of Sound - that have been going strong since the early 1990s. The newest genre, he adds, is driven by record labels desperate to remain profitable in a market that's increasingly being squeezed by the iPod and internet downloading. "The record business is no different than any other business," Buchanan says. "It's no different than service stations adding grocery aisles rather than just selling petrol. If you're not developing new revenue streams for your business, you're in big trouble."
There's no doubt compilations are an easy buck for record labels. Unlike producing an original album by a new band, they save labels from recording fees, mixing fees and the often astronomically high advertising fees associated with promoting a new act.
But why are the musicians so keen to participate, when the venture is prone to criticism of cashing in and selling out?
Joni Mitchell, who signed up for the Starbucks series, explains on the shop's website: "By the end of the 20th century, it seemed to me that the muse had gone out of music and all that was left was the 'ic'. Nothing sounded genuine or original. Truth and beauty were passe . . . I quit the business. I volunteered to take part in [this project] in order to force myself to review the songs and compositions that, over the course of my life, really got to me."
Soon, Australians will have the opportunity to scrutinise the tunes that "got to" Joni - and many other big-name stars. Starbucks Australia is looking into bringing its celeb compilations to local stores this year. Plus there's the latest DMC release, compiled by the Libertines lead singer Carl Barat, on Monday.
Will we embrace the trend, as the US and UK have? Melbourne musician Kim Beissel certainly thinks so. In fact, he already has, having already produced two albums of songs that inspired Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds (unsanctioned by the band) in 1998 and 2004. Local label Rubber Records put out the albums, and Beissel is keen to do another one.
It isn't about the money, he says (he netted only "about $5000" on the first volume), but rather the fact that the trend provides a functional outlet for obsessive fans - and there are many - like himself.
"I'm like the guy in [the Nick Hornby book] High Fidelity, [who says] 'Have a listen to this obscure track, dude,' and the 17-year-old goes, 'That's awesome.' There's a satisfaction in that. What was it like the first time you ever had truffles, or whiskey? It's just passing on something that you like."

The Next Step
Setting up home together is a hugely exciting time – whether you're a young couple just starting out or you're older and this is your second (or third) time around.
But with advisers and divorce lawyers citing money problems as the chief culprit in relationship or marriage breakdowns, it's worth building good financial foundations. As family law specialist Marilyn Hauptmann of Swaab Attorneys says: "When there are money problems, the sex goes. And then the marriage [or relationship] goes."
Sit down and document how much you have in investments and cash, says financial planner Suzanne Haddan, as well as your debt (such as loans or credit card borrowings). "This is not a time for being secretive," adds Haddan, managing director of BFG Financial Services. "If you're not comfortable laying it out on the table, don't merge your relationship."
Hauptmann agrees. "People get together and they're scared to talk about money. But money is what drives people apart. It's a great idea to get that conversation well and truly into gear at the beginning. The more you know about the other's finances, the more harmony you will have."
Working out how you're going to pay for things will inevitably require working out a budget. This can be as hard for older couples as younger households. Use tools like the TrackMySpend app on government website money.smart.gov.au.
Collaborative family law specialist Jacqueline Jones says a vital step is deciding whether to create a joint account and contribute equally to pay set household expenses. Another is working out whether one or both of you will look after the finances and how to keep that person informed. Haddan says often in the early stages couples maintain separate accounts on top of the household joint account, but over time combine these.
Crucial in any budgeting, she says, is taking both of your needs into account. "It's expensive being a woman – we pay more for haircuts, skincare, cosmetics and clothes – so you need to come to an agreement."
It's no good one of you saving slavishly for a deposit on your first home when your partner is more intent on an overseas holiday. For older couples, says Haddan, a disparity can be one partner wanting private schools for children from a previous marriage, when for the other partner this was not part of the plan for their own children. Airing these differences early on in a marriage or live-in relationship will make it easier to compromise or find a solution.
If you plan to have children, Hauptmann advises thinking about the financial implications now. Will one of you be the main carer and can you afford for one of you to work part-time? Haddan advocates making advance payments on the mortgage before babies to ease potential financial stress, as well as working out in advance how you'll both survive on a lower income and still have your own discretionary spending. If you're taking out loans together (buying furniture or real estate), do it in both your names. That way you avoid "sexually transmitted" debt, says Haddan, if you split up.
If there is a great disparity in wealth between the two of you, Haddan suggests seeing a solicitor for a binding financial agreement. If you've been given family gifts or loans – for example, help from parents when buying a home – have it documented so it does not form part of your joint assets (just in case of a split later on).
If you're an older couple and you want certain assets to go to your children after you die, be careful about how you follow this through. If you'd always intended your superannuation to go to your offspring and you start an account-based pension with your new partner/spouse as a reversionary beneficiary, says Haddan, that money will be passed on to them and will not form part of your estate. If you're buying a house with your new partner and you want your half to go to your children in the event of your death, buy the property as tenants in common rather than joint tenants.
Ditto with term deposits – rather than having $100,000 pooled in a joint term deposit, start separate accounts so there's a cleaner divide if you want to leave this to children in your will. And if you're not married, organise a will so the remaining partner is taken care of in the event of the death of one of you. A marriage invalidates a will, points out Jones, but setting up home together doesn't.
If one of you moves to part-time work after children, even up super balances. Once a year, the main breadwinner can send up to 85 per cent of his or her annual contribution to the spouse's super account. Evening up super balances is a good idea anyway, says Haddan, because it will keep you under the radar of potential government changes that could penalise individual higher balances.

There was a recent CNN poll released that showed the Rand Paul/Conway race for Kentucky's Senate seat basically tied. This was quit surprising to me and many other. Then it was revealed that CNN oversampled Democrats to try and fudge the numbers to make the races appear closer than they actually are (maybe the entice Democrats to vote). That poll was done on September 2nd. Now as we begin October, a new Rasmussen poll about the Kentucky Senate race puts the difference between Paul and Conway at 11 points. Rand Paul gets 49% of the vote, while Conway gets 38%. A Pollster.com average of all polling shows Rand Paul with nearly an 8 point lead at 48.2% to 40.5% for Conway.
Here's the breakdown of the Rasmussen stats:
Eighty-two percent (82%) of Kentucky Republicans support Paul, as do nearly one-in-four Democrats (24%). Conway has the backing of just 67% of voters in his own party. Voters not affiliated with either of the major parties prefer Paul by nearly 20 points.
Yea, I guess that labeling of tea party candidates as "extremists" by the lame stream media and progressive liberal Democrats is really scaring off Independents isn't it?

Best practices to address real world challenges
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit has affirmed the district court's ruling in the case of United States v. Quality Stores, Inc., finding that certain severance payments should not be considered wages for FICA taxation purposes. These decisions have opened the door for employers who made covered severance payments, and paid the associated FICA taxes, to file a claim for refund. On October 18, 2012, the government filed a petition with the Sixth Circuit for rehearing of the Sixth Circuit's earlier decision. The government has argued that the case involves a question of "exceptional importance", contending that the Sixth Circuit's ruling conflicts with prior cases and noting that the total amount currently at issue exceeds $1 billion.
The decision in Quality Stores does not provide a wholesale exemption from FICA for all severance benefits; rather, it addresses "supplemental unemployment compensation benefits" ("SUB payments").
In general, to be considered SUB payments, benefits must at a minimum be:
Unless payments meet the above criteria, it is unlikely that an employer will prevail in a claim for refund.
Even though the case is not final and the appeals process may continue for some time, if you paid FICA tax on severance payments, you should consider whether filing a protective claim for refund to preserve your claim is worthwhile. Because of the statute of limitations, claims for refund of FICA taxes on severance benefits paid in 2009 must generally be filed on or before April 15, 2013. Claims for FICA tax refunds related to severance payments made before 2009 are generally closed under the statute of limitations.

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I had gone to sears to look at laptops. When looking into payment options I went with the " Why Not Lease It" option. I make my initial $30 payment and leave with the intentions of making bi-weekly payments. Mind you I purchased it on Monday the 27th and I expect my next payment to be 2 Mondays from then. But what they don't tell you is that they ask the day you get paid because they withdraw your first payment at 6am on the Friday(which is my payday) prior to the Monday I was actually supposed to pay. But whatever I dealt with it. What I can't deal with is when they call me to tell me that when they ran my payment it came back declined so I now owe them a 25 dollar processing fee. I tell them that's impossible because my account had more then enough money to cover the $30 dollar payment. The man then informed me that he will have a supervisor call me the following day so I can send a copy my bank statements stating that at 6 am on that day there was enough funds. Well after speaking to a supervisor then a manager I was told that regardless off how much money or proof that I have I am still responsible to pay the fee. Never in my life have I heard of this. I even called WNLI with my bank on three way where the bank even told them they have no record of a transaction even being processed nevermind declined.
Once I am done these payments I will never again do business with them.

Hey, geeks!
I've been using XP for a ling time and recently acquired a new laptop with Vista and I'm learning the ins-and-outs of using Vista, but something that I've wanted to do for a while is learn how to use Ubuntu and see the differences that it has compared to Windows in general.
Can you all point me to some good resources for complete noobies that would help me get up and running with Ubuntu? Is that even the Linux OS I should start out with? I'm looking for anything really: Blogs, PDFs, forums, etc., that will help me learn about it.
Thanks for the help!

The day after Purim, a Jewish holiday in which the celebrant is commanded by law to drink until he or she can no longer distinguish between the names "Mordekhai" and "Haman," I visited the west bank town of Jericho, which is the longest continually inhabited human settlement in the world (est. 9000 BC), and boasts a theme park called banana land. Without exception, despite whatever may have been brewing under the surface, all the Palestinians I met were quite friendly, open, and happy to chat. An intriguing thought occurred to me.
Since the Qu'ran forbids it, most Muslim Palestinians do not drink.
I probably would not want to be caught wandering around as an obvious outsider in any American city with a 30 percent unemployment rate and an ideological grudge against most of the stuff I'm associated with. As I strolled through Jericho, however, I was quite reassured to know that with all things considered, nobody was likely to be drunk.
What, I wonder, would things be like if Palestinians drank like Harvard students? The territories would certainly be much, much more dangerous for the likes of me.
What about the political situation? With booze conflicting with patience and planning, infighting might be more common, organization worse, and things might look good for the Israelis.
But on the other hand, a mix of drunken courage and impaired judgment can lead to problems, as most of you know. A young man who would normally stay home might have other plans after a few drinks.
Would the problem have burned itself out by now? Would sinful releases diffuse the focus of the Palestinian people? Would things be worse for Israel? Would things be worse for Palestine? Could things be better?
Who knows...who knows.

Where I stayed
We arrive in Jersey to an island that has an interesting history of invasion from the Vikings, French and English. Today street signs are in both French and English and many of the locals speak both languages.
Jersey is home to Mark's maternal ancestors for some 500 years. We do a bit of digging around and come across the AMY surname in an old menswear shop that is named Amy & Son established 1880. Whilst a rare surname in Australia, Amy is in fact very common throughout Jersey.
Most of our day is spent in the ancient shopping precinct and the marvelous Vegetable & Flower market. Many people come from London, Paris and beyond each weekend to shop in Jersey (due to low taxes and no GST), so there are shoppers everywhere
The colour of the market with its somewhat unusual flowers and fruits is a sight to behold. We had the feeling of being in a medieval European city with people trading their wears in the busy market atmosphere - a simple yet highlight if the Jersey trip.
Dinner was great. Obviously seafood was called for with even Mark partaking in some local fish. Of course the highlight was the dessert menu! What a great finish to our first day in the Channel Islands.
Day 2
Despite the weather turning for the worse, we head on down to the pier to capture the Elizabeth Fort in all it's glory. Built as a garrison, this huge fort is built on a massive rock slab out in the beachfront. Photos were at a premium The wind was so strong that it nearly blew us off the pier
A visit to the Jersey Museum was well worth the effort. The story of Nazi Occupation and the aforementioned historic battles for this island, is well documented. The highlight was the Jersey's proclamation to support Oliver Cromwell during the Reformation with the latter's signature. Further, proclamations with King Charles II and Queen Victoria's signatures is on display behind bullet-proof glass: Fascinating!
Our two day trip to Jersey comes to an end. Despite the strange weather a most enjoyable experience all round.

Anybody remember the Sterling? It was supposed to be British as all get out but was a Honda clone. How about Ford's try at importing it's German models labeled as Merkur? M-B announced not too long ago that its money losing Maybach is going to be allowed to slip back into the history books. Mazda was going to try for a upmarket with the "Amati" brand, but it died before it even launched - the last edition Mazda 929 being the only product ever developed for the brand. It was sold as a Mazda and only seemed to confuse people used to buying 323's. Fords Edsel missed its mark. Packard tried a revival in the 90's producing 1 hideous prototype. Who else has tried - and failed - to crack the luxury market?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sterling_(car)It must have cost Rover and Honda BILLIONS to market this few cars.
and say it correctly everyone: it's Mare-kur - the German word for Mercury.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkur
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edselgiven conventional styling and not released in a resession, it probably would have been a hit - 6 years in development - glopped in "committee-think" - it didn't have a prayer.
Ack! Just Ack!http://rumors.automobilemag.com/rights-and-designs-for-a-packard-revival-for-sale-134762.html#axzz2P3uHi7ak
Poor M-B! They thought they could slip a stretched "S" class with aircraft style rear seats as a revived luxury marque! At a million + a pop yet! A few people in Du'bai and a Rapper bought one - Everyone else laughed and bought 4 R-R Phantoms instead. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maybach
Honda owned just 20% of Rover at the time. Sometimes minority stakes don't work out. Ask GM how it fared with Suzuki, Isuzu, Fuji Heavy and Fiat equity stakes.
Once Virgil Exener decided he would revive the glorious Dusenberg name. He based his car off a Chrysler chassis with a 440 as the base engine. For $19,500 base you could select any options you wished. ( this was 1966 -$11,000 bought you a really nice house) 60% of the 1st orders called for "custom options" to the base level "Model C". Automobile Quarterly devoted almost an entire issue to it in 1965. One of the Dusenberg grandchildren signed on as an enthusiastic supporter. The whole thing fell apart when one of the prototypes was seized for "failure to pay taxes". Depending on who you use as a source - between 1 and 25 units were completed before everything exploded! I've never seen anything but the prototype, so I'd have to guess it was 1!
It looks as though Fisker will be joining the ranks very soon. It just takes billions to develop a new car. Even Tesla is not out of the woods.
Lest we forget Saab!
Volvo could head down the same road if they don't get this behavior under control.Reuters.com - Dealer cheating causes havoc at Volvo's China unit
..............................."I'm out of the midwest. It was a good place to come from. It gives you a good sense of right or wrong and fairness, which I think is lacking in our society." - Steve McQueenIn Michigan there are two types of people; Yoopers and Trolls. Yoopers live in the Upper Peninsula (aka: the UP = Yooper), while the Trolls live under the Mackinac Bridge in the Lower Peninsula. Guess which peninsula I live in.
Is Acura dead yet? A tier 2 luxury brand cant last that long, can it? lolGawd, I remember those Merkurs, those things were horrid. The car lot I worked at as a teen would get some here n there and we would laugh at every fool that bought one. "yup, we'll see that guy again in a month or so for another car".
Nah, I don't think it's that hard for Honda to swap the badges of JDM vehicles to make an Acura. I think their only "Acura developed," car is the MDX. Surprise, surprise, it's also their bestseller.IMO, Honda was on the right track with BL/Rover, except they weren't willing to pay up, and BMW took the whole company, as a result.
___________________________I'm the world's worst Ford fan. Sorry.
AA few facts are wrong here: The Sterling wasn't a rebadged Honda, the Acura Legend was designed to accommodate a Rover version (marketed as a Sterling) from the get-go. And while I know the Legend was a Honda everywhere else, it was still an Acura, not just a run of the mill Honda. Also, you're confusing the 929 for the Millenia. The Millenia was to have launched Amati. Maybachs started in the high 200k range, not $1mm. But yes, they were based on the older '92+ S-Class frame. As for Acura developed: the first and second gen Legends were always intended as high end cars. Even the TL was designed as a luxury car, though it was based on an Accord. The MDX is based on a Pilot, not much different than TL from Accord, however it's 'Acura-only' because we're the only market they sell a larger SUV into. Speaking of the Acura TL, since 2004, we're the only market that gets that either. In 2004, the JDM version of the Vigor/TL (Honda Inspire) was then replaced with USDM Accord.

Probably, but by no means certainly, there will be a recurrence of the influenza epidemic this year. Indications are. that should it occur, it will not be as severe as the pandemic cl the previous winter. City officials, state and city boards of health, should be prepared in the event of a recurrence. The fact that a previous attack brings immunity in a certain percentage of cases should allay fear on tht part of those afflicted in the previous epidemic. Influenza is spread by direct and indirect contact. It is not yet certain that the germ has been isolated. or discovered, and as a consequence there is yet no positive preventive, except the enforcement of rigid rules ot sanitation and the avoidance of personal contact. A close relation between the influenza pandemic and the constantly increasing pneumonia mortality rate prior to the fatl of 1918 is recognized. It is now believed that the disease was pretty widel> disseminated throughout the country before it was recognized in its epidemic state, due to the fact that every interest was then concentrated on the war.

Not Fresh Intimidation. Contrary to the opinion express«*d IreqUeotly during the early weeks of last year's pandemic by a nuiu-bet' of observers, the studies of the United ill at es public health service indicate thai the epidemic was not a fresh importation (fool abroad. Careful study of the mortality sta-listics of the United States shows that there were a number #oi extern j sive though mild forerunners ot the; pandemic during the previous three or lour years. In Chicago and New York in the winter of 1915-16. for example, these wer** sufficiently well inark**d to occasion considerable public comment at the time, leading ij| the latter city, to a well organized "Don't spit, don't sneeze'' campaign on the part of the health au-j tborities. The reports of the United; Sales public health service of January. 1916, show influenza to be epidemic in twenty-two states, including practically all sections ot the I lilted States. The epidemic was g literally of a mild type and has j Since been almost forgotten. It canioned, however, a noticeable crease in the recorded death from pneumonia.

The news of Joe Thompson's death was received in Ada with deep regret. He was well known and unity* rsally popular here. Almost every citizen of Ada knew him. and with a1! of these he was just "Joe Thompson." Many of our people knew him when he was a struggling country lawyer, and when he had risen to a high place in the nationals friends here *ttll thought of him as they had known him in the early days. The last time Congressman Thompson visited Ada was last November, when lie delivered an address here on his experiences while visiting the battlefields of Europe. At that time his friends noticed that be seemed ie be iu poor health, but hoped he would soon recover. Now that he has passed out of life there is genuine sorrow among all who knew him. Ada ca-ried the bond issues over the top yesterday thru a heavy gas barrage and registered overwhelming majorities in favor of all three propositions. The opposition to the bonds lost its threatening aspect after the free-for-all debate on Main street Wednesday night and went down like ninepins when it met the organized forces of the bond supporters at the polls. The hardest fight of all was made on the water extension bonds, which carried by the largest majority. No fight worth mentioning was made against the park bonds, yet the majority. against this proposition was least of all. Lack of Dpposition probably produced lack of interest in the park proposition and some citizens voted against the park on the theory that the amount of money called for was not sufficient for the purpose. The first ward was the stronghold of the bond supporters, casting a clear majority of 200 votes in favor of the water bonds out of a total vote of 294. The majority for the water bonds was greater in this ward alone than all the votes cast against the bonds in the entire city. The second ward cast an almost unanimous vote in favor of the water bonds. The stronghold of the antis was the third ward, all three propositions being voted down there by a vote of about two to one. The women of the city showed marked interest in the election and seemed to be voting as a unit in favor of th*^ bonds. The old question of what will the women do with the children on election day seemed to be effectively answered yesterday when many women came to the polls and voted with babes in their arms.
