The Social Security Death Index (SSDI) was one of Ancestry.com's very first databases. We've been adding names to this collection since 1996, and in that time we have listed more than 86 million names in the collection. In fact, we were the first to provide family historians online access to the SSDI, so we realize the importance of this collection. This is why we will now be updating the SSDI every week to add the names of those whose deaths were recently reported to the Social Security Administration.
The SSDI contains only deaths that were reported to the Social Security Administration or the Railroad Retirement Board. So it is possible that Granny is not included. But before concluding that Granny was not, make sure to search the SSDI in several ways. Here are some tips for your search:
- Search with the surname by which she was known at the time of her death.
- If that does not bring up the record, try other surnames that she may have used at various times.
- If you know the year in which she died, try searching by given name, year of death, and year of birth, without including a surname.
- Try searching with initials (many SSDI records do not include the full given name).
- Try using a middle name instead of the first given name.
- Try variant forms of names – for Sarah also try Sally; for Mary also try Molly and Polly.
- Try switching the month and day (for 5 February also check 2 May).
If you have a record that lists the Social Security Number, that can be searched on without needing to enter information in any of the other search boxes. We recently increased the ability to use truncation in searches so try entering just the first few letters of the name and then using an asterisk.
Exactly what each SSDI record contains depends on what information the Social Security Administration provides. Some SSDI records provide the exact date of death while others list only the month and year. In no case do SSDI records list where death occurred because the Social Security Administration does not provide that information. What is commonly thought to be the place of death is instead the last place of residence that was known to the Social Security Administration. This locality might be where the death occurred, but you will need to find other records, such as the person's state-issued death certificate, to know for sure.
So, if you haven't already tried searching our SSDI collection – try it today. And keep in mind that this collection will be updated weekly, so it's worth checking back regularly to see if Granny was included.

Thank you! Great suggestions for alternate ways to identify the death record. Please keep up these great suggestions and create similiar blog entries for other indexes and records. In many searches I have identified wonderful and exciting new information, but I have a few key individuals that I have had challenges finding additional and desired facts/specifics.
The SSDI is a great resource, and it's one of several of the ancestry.com resources that I use the most (except for the census, of course). However, despite my ongoing efforts to use New Search as much as possible, the SSDI is one of the databases where I usually find myself forced into using Old Search.
The basic problem with New Search and the SSDI is the search template, and in particular the way the date is specified in the New Search template for the SSDI. That is, the New Search template for the SSDI only support a year, and does not support a month or day. Or if the New Search template for the SSDI supports a month and day, I can't figure out how to make it work.
I note the following suggestion for dealing with difficult SSDI searches in Chad Milliner's blog posting: "Try switching the month and day (for 5 February also check 2 May)." How do you do that when you can't specify anything but the year? I also note the following suggestion in the Search Tips for the SSDI search page itself: "Change dates around (e.g. instead of searching for 5 Oct 1954 [10/5/54], search for 10 May 1954 [5/10/54])" How do you do that when you can't specify anything but the year?
There are other problems with the New Search template for the SSDI as well – the lack of separate fields for the city, county, and zip; and the lack of a field for state issued. On the city/county thing, there are cities in multiple counties, and counties with multiple cities, and it's much cleaner in Old Search to specify a county without a city or a city without a county than with New Search. I don't know how to search for a zip code in New Search at all. But the real biggie is the problem with the New Search template date fields.
When it comes to the SSDI I've found it easiest to not mess with old search or NewSearch. I go to the SSDI itself and use the Advanced search where you can specity
the month, day, and year of both birth and death.

I usually enter as much as I know or can guess and then back out certain things if nothing found. It works pretty well.
I can not find my sister in the SS Deaths. I finally found her SS# (from her death certificate) and tried searching that way also, but it does not show her at all. Is there a reason for this? Why wouldn't it put a name with the SS# when I looked it up?? Thank you for your help.

I have a similar problem as Sue #4, so I was glad to read the answer from Chad #5. Thanks.
THANK YOU CHAD!!! Please continue to provide such great tips as well as let us know if there is a reference sources with similiar insights/tips.
Based upon your above entry, I ordered copies of two Social Security applications — I had the SS #s but wanted to validate I accurately identified the parents of my 2nd great grandfather and another to identify the parents of my husband's great grandfather… so exciting … two lines of the family tree that I had challenges researching and two key peices of information that will ideally be uncovered by the Social Security application form.
The SS # of the deceased person I'm researching is 573-20-8850. It came from a California death index. I don't have a copy of the death certificate. Her name was Harriet Mangs in that record. I think her maiden name was Kisto. I'm trying to prove her parents were William Kisto and Agnes –?–.
Harriet/Elizabeth Kisto or Elizabeth/Harriet Kisto was born 16 Jan 1919 in Pennsylvania, and died 14 Mar 1970 in San Francisco ( ? city or county), California. She married Albert Edwin Mangs. I'm doing some research for another person, free of charge.
I'm aware of the change in record keeping for the Social Security Administration. They had the wrong name attached to my SS# in their records. I had a terrible time talking on the phone trying to get them to help me get it changed to my correct name before I went on SS. I won't forget that incident. Garbage in, garbage out, on computers!
Regarding the SS-5. Social Security charges $27 for a copy of the orignal application for SSN (with SSN provided) and $16 for a computer extract of this application. ($2 more each if SSN is not provided.) What is the difference, if any, between the computer extract and the copy of the original application?
#11 Richard
A computer extract would likely not contain all information that is on the original document ( i.e. you may gain additional insights from a copy of the original.) Additionally, there could be errors in the extract due to transcription errors.
Re: Andy #3. I don't understand your comment about "going to the SSDI itself". I think that's was what I am doing. I don't really search the SSDI from the main ancestry.com home page or from the main ancestry.com search page. I go straight to the SSDI page.
But even on the SSDI page, there is a New Search template and there is an Old Search template. The templates are very different. The template you are describing sounds like the Old Search template for the SSDI. (I dearly wish sometimes that we as users could post screen shots to the blog. It would make things so much easier to understand.)
So I wonder if you could clarify. Are you actually using the Old Search template for the SSDI, or is there a way to specify month/day/year for the New Search template for the SSDI that I don't understand?
I search the SSDI from the Rootsweb side.
On the Rootsweb Home Page there is a link to the SSDI-click that.
When the search screen comes up click the advance search box close to the submit button.
Use the screen that comes up that includes m/d/y/, zip, last benefit, etc.
For what it is worth, here is the site addy from RootsWeb with the advanced search. This one offers you all kinds of options in your search:
I think this is the one Andy uses.
Andy #14 and Carol #15: thanks for the update. I do use the SSDI from the rootsweb side occasionally, but usually I'm already in ancestry.com and just use Old Search from there (even though I try to use New Search as much as I can for other things). It's just crazy that the New Search support for the SSDI is so deficient as compared to Old Search and as compared to the rootsweb side. And it's even crazier that the ancestry.com suggestions for searching the SSDI don't even work from New Search.
#12 Lynn. I do understand that a computer extract would 'likely' not contain all the information in the original SS-5 record. I was hoping someone could share what those differences, if any, actually are.

Americans as a whole view themselves as reasonably prudent and sober people when it comes to matters of money, reflecting the puritan roots of the earliest European settlers. Yet as a community, we also seem to believe that we are entitled to a lifestyle that is well-beyond our current income, a tendency that goes back to the earliest days of the United States and particularly to get-rich-quick experiences ranging from the Gold Rush of the 1840s to the real estate bubble of the early 21st Century.
Inflated examines this apparent conflict and makes the argument that such a worldview is so ingrained in us that to expect the United States to live in a "deflated" world is simply unrealistic. It skillfully seeks to tell the story of money, inflation, and public debt as enduring (and perhaps endearing) features of American life, rather than something we can one day overcome as our policy makers constantly promise.

Egypt fires hundreds of police as protests grow
CAIRO Egypt's security chief fired nearly 700 police officers Wednesday in a step to cleanse the much-hated force, the latest concession military rulers have made under pressure from protesters holding a sit-in in Cairo's Tahrir Square for the past six days.
Widespread abuses by the police under the former regime were a key reason behind the protests that toppled President Hosni Mubarak in February. But the ruling military council that took over from him has been slow to hold ex-regime officials and police accountable for killing nearly 900 protesters during the uprising and other crimes.
With public frustration rising sharply, protesters resumed a sit-in in Tahrir Square, the epicenter of the revolution that was occupied day and night for most of the 18-day uprising. Protesters say the dismissal of 669 police officers was not extensive enough.
"These are just sedatives. We won't be fooled," said Walid Saoud, a 34-year old protester at Tahrir. He said the sit-in will go on because the protesters want to see a total restructuring of the police force, the main tool of political control under the previous regime.
Some are even accusing the ruling military council of trying to protect Mubarak and his former regime loyalists.
In another nod to demands by activists, the military is delaying parliamentary elections that had been expected in September, the state news agency said. The vote is now expected in October or November, the report said.
Many of the political parties that arose from the uprising want the delay so they can compete more effectively against better prepared and financed Islamist groups, such as the Muslim Brotherhood.
Despite the latest string of concessions, protesters appear more determined than ever to press of their demands. Many are calling for the dismissal of the current Cabinet.
"Tahrir Square is the popular and legitimate monitor of the performance of any institution in Egypt," Saoud said. "As we see it, there has been no change in the police ways."
Interior Minister Mansour El-Issawi announced the dismissal of 669 high-ranking police officers including 505 major-generals - 10 of them top assistants to the minister. State TV said 37 of the dismissed officers face charges of killing protesters.
"This is the biggest administrative move ... to bring new blood," to the police force, el-Issawi said. He promised that "any police officer will be held accountable for any violation."
How to deal with Egypt's delegitimized police force, with nearly half a million members, has been a major testing ground for the interim government.
During the early days of the uprising, there were intensely violent clashes when police used force to try to hold back peaceful marches. A few days into the uprising, the police melted away from the streets mysteriously, leaving the streets to waves of looting and theft.
The force never redeployed in full force since, and some blame police for the rising wave of crime in Egypt in the past months.
Activists say lack of security is the biggest challenge to meeting their demands to overhaul the system, including holding fair and free elections.
Magda Boutros, an activist and part of a team that launched a new initiative to reform the police force, said the measures introduced by el-Issawi fall short of expectations.
She said her group estimates that at least 200 officers responsible for the killing of protesters and facing trials should have been dismissed.
"We can't take one of Mubarak's biggest problems and deal with it piecemeal. We need a comprehensive plan," she said.
Mohammed Abdel-Aziz, a lawyer specializing in torture cases, said torture continued after the revolution. He is currently representing three who were abused by a police officer. Abdel-Aziz said the minister's plan didn't send a "deterrent" message to middle level officers.

Hard Candy (1989)
by Andrew Vachss
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Amazed this hasn't been reviewed in LibraryThing. I was spellbound, found it very difficult to put down. One hopes the mean streets of NY are (were) not quite so bad as painted here but the writing is superb. Read it.

Wikipedia in English
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0679761691, Paperback)In this mercilessly compelling thriller, Burke—the private eye, sting artist, and occasional hit man who metes out a cruelly ingenious vengeance on those who victimize children—is up against a soft-spoken messiah, who may be rescuing runaways or recruiting them for his own hideous purposes. But in doing so Burke becomes a target for an entire Mafia family, a whore with a heart of cyanide, and a contract killer as implacable as a heat-seeking missile. Written with Vachss's signature narrative overdrive—and his unnerving familiarity with the sub-basement of American crime—Hard Candy is vintage Burke.

P. I. Burke gets unwillingly advertised as a gun-for-hire and pressure from the police and the Mafia, but decides to rescue a young girl from the dangers of a "safe house" for teenagers.

An Ohio University spokesperson has confirmed that author Daniel Keyes has died at age 86.
The OU English professor emeritus is best known for his books "Flowers of Algernon" and "The Minds of Billy Milligan."
His story "Flowers of Algernon" started as a short story and was then expanded to a novel.
It was made into a movie, Charly, in 1968. Cliff Robertson won an Academy Award for his lead performance.
"The Minds Of Billy Milligan" was based on a series of interviews Keyes had with Milligan, who used multiple personality disorder as an insanity plea.
WOUB reported that Keyes died of pneumonia at his home in South Florida.

Reviews Summary
Please Note: Reader Reviews are submitted by the readers of The BigScreen Cinema Guide and represent their own personal opinions regarding this movie, and do not represent the views of The BigScreen Cinema Guide, or any of its associated entities.
Comedian Mike Birbiglia co-wrote and directed this comedy about a struggling comic who has a sleep disorder and keeps putting his disorder aside in order to get more gigs at comedy clubs. He also has issues with his longtime girlfriend played by Lauren Ambrose in a sweet performance. Ambrose is one of my favorite underrated actresses. It's nice to see her on the big screen again. "Sleepwalk with Me" is in limited releae and if you can find this movie playing at an arthouse movie, it'll be wroth it.

State law already bans oil drilling in Florida waters, as millions of gallons of oil meander across the gulf, politicians from both parties are calling for a near permanent constitutional ban on oil drilling.
Once a drilling supporter, Governor Charlie Crist has concluded it can't be done safe enough or far enough from Florida's coast.
"I think what's important is that we all stay focuse," Crist said. "That we put forth a ban on drilling off the coast of Florida. There's consensus there that people should have the right to vote on it."
The Session would also attempt to enact a state energy policy.
The likely timetable for a special session, the last week of May.
The Governor is expected to set the dates for the session by the end of the week, with the agenda including much more than a permanent ban on drilling.
"But I want to talk about wind, nuclear, solar, gas, natural gas," Crist said.
CFO Alex Sink first called for the ban last week. Attorney General Bill McCollum says it isn't needed…but will go along with it.
"If you have a special session and the legislature decides to put it on the ballot, so be it," McCollum said. "I'm against off shore drilling."
The only opposition is from Associated Industries, which pushed drilling last year.
"This is not the time to do this," Barney Bishop, with Associated Industries, said. "This is a knee jerk reaction. This is a waste of money to bring the legislators back up."
But even the powerful lobby organization believes sending the ban to voters is all but a done deal.
If voters do get a say, at least 60 percent would have to approve for it to become effective.

From Hurricane Irene's victims, to the twisters that ripped through Eastern Carolina earlier this year, the impact of severe weather in our area is being felt this Christmas season.
Friday marked eight months since tornadoes ripped across our state, killing 12 in Eastern Carolina alone.
Like many places, people in Greene County are still recovering from the tornadoes.
The Hill family, whose house was totaled by a twister, rebuilt and moved back in late last month. And while there's still unpacking and landscaping work to do, they say they're grateful to be able to spend Christmas at home. Jason Hill says, "It's gonna be special because we got through the tornado together and we're back where we're from and we're going to be all together - so it should be really special."
Greene County superintendent Dr. Patrick Miller says progress is also being made on the middle school. He says the demolition phase is almost complete, and expects reconstruction to start in the spring.

Pedro Martinez had the bases loaded with one out and struck out the next two hitters to get out of the inning.
In a game the Mets needed to win, Martinez pitched like an ace.There was no more important development for the Mets last night.
Hi John – You were right in the column this morning and you are right here. There is no more important player on this team right now. Every time the ship starts to lean, Pedro gets them back on an even keel somehow.

text: I have been looking at bikes for the past few weeks and am having troubles finding a halfway decent bike within my price range. I want a cyclocross bike because I will need to ride on gravel often because I live out in the boonies where the roads aren't paved but will want to stick to paved road when possible. The problem is is that the bikes I have looked at are a bit too expensive for a struggling college student. I liked the Trek XO 1 alot but it was still a bit too expensive. If anyone can direct me towards a similar bike that would be great. I am also looking used. Can anyone direct me towards a good used bike similar to the Trek XO 1. Thanks for the help before hand.

Hero Doctor
A doctor in Italy bravely completed a brain surgery eventhough he suffered a heart attack halfway through. Even with the pain in his chest, he continued on as he knows if he stopped, the patient could never recover.
An Italian doctor completed a brain operation despite having a heart attack after realizing his patient would never recover if he stopped the surgery.
Surgeon Claudio Vitale started feeling pains in his chest half way through the operation but refused to stop despite his team's urging and the pain worsening.
After finishing the surgery, the doctor had an angioplasty operation to treat his attack.
Vitale insists he's not a hero, but that he couldn't leave the patient "at such a delicate moment."
Both doctor and patient are recovering.
Not sure if he did the angioplasty operation on himself after finishing off with the brain surgery hehe.

[IMAGE]Michigan-Airbus-full.jpg[/IMAGE]In order to fill the need for transportation between Ann Arbor's University of Michigan (U-M) and the Detroit-Wayne County Metropolitan Airport, the Michigan Student Assembly (MSA) partnered with private charter carriers to create MSA airbus. The service is available before and after U-M breaks, which amounts to about 20 service days per year.Although a commuter rail option is being studied, no other low-cost transit options currently exist for students needing to travel the 25 miles between the airport and campus. "We set up MSA airBus as a sort of stop-gap transit option," says Neil Greenberg, who directs service development.Schedules are posted online a month before each break. Students purchase tickets for rides to the airport, but can board the return trip for free. Tickets purchased in advance cost $7. Greenberg points out that a taxi ride or van service for the same trip would cost $50 to $70 each way. "Since MSA airBus began in 2002, we've saved our customers an estimated $2.8 million in cab fares," he says. With the cooperation of U-M Student Financial Operations, MSA airBus is able to charge walk-on fares directly to student accounts. Passengers simply swipe their student ID cards and the $11 fare appears on the regular card statement.MSA airBus is staffed entirely by students, who handle marketing, finance, scheduling, operations and human resources, and pick up on-the-job skills at the same time.Until last year, fares covered 100 percent of the service's costs. Because MSA airBus is part of student government, MSA was able to cover the difference in the 2008-09 school year. Additional marketing efforts — including a Twitter feed — are lined up to help increase ridership and thus cover costs for this coming year, Greenberg says.MSA airBus is working with the university's International Student Affairs Commission to add a new service for international students at the beginning of the school year. In addition, airBus will partner with a local restaurant that recently purchased two cutaway buses for late-night rides. "The small buses will run a feeder route in neighborhoods not directly served by MSA airBus, then drop customers off at a regular MSA airBus stop," Greenberg says.
Officials say walking to classes and other events on campus, or to downtown bars and restaurants, cuts the traffic on city and campus streets, eases parking headaches and reduces the cost of road maintenance.
The pod utilizes a passive magnetic levitation system that incorporates two arrays of 20 neodymium magnets, according to MIT Hyperloop's website.
Campus Transit has been recruiting aggressively all semester — handing out applications and cookies — to offset this large decline in its workforce.
Auro Shuttles are equipped with lasers, camera, radar and GPS providing it a complete 360-degree vision under all environmental situations.
The pass will provide unlimited Muni use and a 25% BART discount for trips starting or ending at the Daly City stop, which is south of San Francisco.

As an immigrant from Peru who spoke only Spanish when she started high school in the United States, Talia Shaull understands the importance of a good public education, and she has dedicated her career to making sure that students in Tulsa, Oklahoma's public schools have access to top-notch teachers.
When Shaull, 39, joined the Tulsa Public Schools in 2010, the district was struggling with a low-performing teaching staff and chronic instructor shortages at its 86 schools, where 87 percent of students qualify for federal free or reduced-price lunches. A system for assessing teacher performance was greatly needed, but the concept of performance management was new to both teachers and administrators.
With degrees in business and organizational development and a background in sales, Shaull had the know-how and skills to develop a talent management plan. Shaull began working with outside educators and national experts to develop and implement a new evidence-based teacher evaluation system called the Tulsa Model. In 2011 it was rolled out across the district and was eventually adopted by the Oklahoma State Department of Education to be used throughout the state.
"It's been a journey in helping teachers and administrators understand what performance management is and how to help teachers improve and become better in the classroom," Shaull said. "It's given us the ability to look at talent as the huge lever in addressing student needs in public schools. We have an opportunity to place the most talented people in front of students who need it the most."
The district is 30 percent Latino so the demand for bilingual teachers is great. In her quest to find top teachers who speak Spanish, Shaull has traveled to Spain to interview candidates using grant monies from organizations like the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

This weekend I volunteered at an event for my personal favorite organization: the Humane Society. It's not that I don't love people, people are the best! (Except for when they're the worst.) But I love animals. I always have. Since I can remember, I have always wanted to have lots of pets. I plastered my closet (aka secret fort) when I was a kid in bunny, kitty and puppy photos that I'd haphazardly torn from old calendars. I had guinea pigs, hamsters, cats, and even a bunny or two when I was still a young resident of my parents house and forbidden to get a dog until I "had my own place". So in college, my roommates and I adopted a cat who we named Holden Catfield (I'm a huge Catcher in the Rye fan, obviously) and loved him dearly as our little furry son. Then when Brandon and I bought a house, before we even moved in, we rescued a dog. Hendrix. Needless to say he was an amazing dog and we loved him more than words, but he was only here to brighten our lives for a short while and now he's running around doggy heaven, probably humping angels. And then, two months later, we rescued Mac, who has quickly filled the empty space that was left. And I'm steadily working on Brandon to adopt another one, but he's taking his sweet old time with that one. All this to say, I am a huge supporter of animal shelters and rescuing animals, and there are so many that need loving homes. And if I can give a few hours of my life to help that cause, you can bet I will. Which brings me to this year's annual Fur Ball Gala.
I mean, look at these faces…
Zeppelin, Stefan and Womp Womp. Gahhh. I love them all. Stefan was *this close* to coming home with me that night. I'm telling you, one more cocktail and he was mine.
Speaking of cocktails, how cute are these??
These pretty little numbers were in the VIP reception (which our job was to guard and make sure everyone who entered was legit and had a VIP pass). Each one was named something adorable (sorry I don't remember, something about Clifford the Big Red Dog and Blues Clues?), ether way, they were not only pretty, but tasted delightful. What? I had to make sure they were good enough for the guests…
Many thanks to my sweet friend Megan who came along to help out this year, I couldn't have turned away the riff-raff without you <3
It was a wonderful event and I'm sure they raised some much-needed funds to support their amazing organization. So many awesome items were donated for the silent auction and the staff really did a tremendous job.
I would encourage all of you to check out your local Humane Societies (or other animal rescues) and see what you can do to help! Even just a few rolls of paper towels or peanut butter jars for treats are GREATLY appreciated if you don't have the time to volunteer, and these small contributions do more than you know.
And just because, here's a cute picture of Mac.
And in case you're wondering, I am one of those dorks that has a magnet on my car with something about how I rescued my best friend. You can stop rolling your eyes now.

Hi - In a thread some time back jamawani mentioned the following route which I'd dearly like to do:
"There's a very nice route across central Idaho from Payette to Lowman to Stanley to Challis to Rexburg. Hot springs along route between Banks and Lowman - Sawtooth Rec Area is really beautiful - east of Stanley the road follows the Salmon River for miles, simply gorgeous - then US 93 cuts between two mountain ranges."
I've got late June / early July in mind for this route so my questions are
1) still possibly under snow during this window? Good friend of mine says these roads are melt-out only (no plowing / snowthrowing)
2) have also heard that these road may or may not be in decent shape for cycling. Rumor is that Idaho's DOT is not flush with $$ for regular repairs & maintenance.
Still - I'm smitten with the aesthetics of this route & really hope it'll go! Any advice on this route / 1st hand experience?
Thanks -

Rachel Zoe Is Pregnant With Second Child (UPDATE)
UPDATE (9/3/2013): Rachel Zoe confirmed her second pregnancy on her website, writing, "Before we head into the chaos of fashion season, we wanted to take a moment to officially confirm that we are expecting another child. We are beyond excited for Skyler to have a sibling and for us to fall in love all over again. We feel incredibly blessed. Thank you all for your constant love and support of our family."
Original story (6/20/2013):
Totally bananas!
Fashion designer/stylist Rachel Zoe and husband Rodger Berman are expecting their second child, Us Weekly reports.
They have a 2-year-old son, Skyler.
The Rachel Zoe Project star previously told Wonderwall she sometimes dresses Skyler like her husband, and other times like "a little French boy." But her own high fashion style has changed in the last two years as well.
"I think as a working mom, I have to dress myself differently now," Rachel told the MSN site. "I used to wear very kind of precious clothes. Now I wear more black. I wear things that kind of can look good for extended periods of time. Fabrics that don't wrinkle. Things that don't stain very easily. 'Cause they know that my son is going to jump on my lap so if I'm wearing silk, that's not a great thing. I think I try to have fashion and function meet way more than I used to."
Rachel Zoe compromising and being practical? We die!
Us Weekly didn't have confirmation from Rachel's rep, but if this pregnancy news is true ... congrats to the growing family!

(UPDATED) PHOTO OP: Head to heart
Janko Tipsarevic pulled the upset of the US Open so far on the men's side when he ousted ninth seeded and 2003 champ Andy Roddick in the second round. The Serb was the aggressor throughout the match stepping inside the baseline, moving the American out of position and cracking winners (60 in total) at will, in particular, his fave down the line blasts. It was A-Rod's earliest exit at a Grand Slam tournament since losing to Tipsy at Wimbledon in 2008. He'll face Frenchie Gael Monfils in the third round, his best result at Flushing Meadows.
After the closing out match point the two met at the net where Tipsy was seen head-butting A-Rod's chest and excitedly grabbing at his arm. So what was that about? "I just said, 'The last time you beat me in a Grand Slam second round, you lost the last match, so don't do that,' to which he head-butted me, which was fun," said the former top baller. Nice.
It was an impressive win for Tipsy whose size belies the big-ballin' game he owns. He possesses enormous power on his groundies, throwing himself into every shot, and on his serve where he put down 16 aces, one less than the big-serving, physically imposing American.
As for A-Rod, he went out there playing as if he'd never been beaten by his opponent before, without a sense of urgency or idea of how to overcome the Serb's game. Plus his boorish behavior at getting called for a correct foot fault was just annoying. Now he gets to watch the next generation of Americans including Sam Querrey, John Isner, and now Ryan Harrison (who won his first Grand Slam match over No. 15 Ivan Ljubicic) carry the load and pressure - the symbolic torch if you will - from the sidelines. And maybe, just maybe he's a little bit relieved.
UPDATE: Here's video of the foot fault incident and A-Rod's reactions...

Welcome to the Hilltop!
Dear Parents,
We are delighted that your student has joined our community during a special time in SMU's history. The University is observing the final phase of its Second Century Celebration, commemorating SMU's founding in 1911 and opening in 1915. As we honor our heritage, we are building for our future and another century of progress.
The incoming Class of 2018 and all students will benefit from many exciting changes on campus. For example, the Residential Commons model was launched campus-wide, enabling all first-year and sophomore students to live on campus in one of the 11 residential facilities. These supportive environments make for a smoother transition to university life and opportunities for forging friendships. Also, the Hilltop community cheered the men's basketball team in the newly renovated Moody Coliseum, as the Mustangs achieved a historic home-game winning streak that propelled them into the ranks of the top teams in the nation.
Students can find one-on-one support to meet their academic goals at the Altshuler Learning Enhancement Center, which offers tutoring, study skills training and writing assistance. I encourage first-year students to visit the Hegi Family Career Development Center and begin planning for internships and preparing for professional success. Students can develop leadership skills by being involved in campus life. SMU has hundreds of opportunities from which to choose, including student government, intramurals, social organizations, community service and religious activities. The George W. Bush Presidential Center, located on our campus, houses the archives and artifacts of a unique time in United States history and provides opportunities for students to become involved in its programs.
SMU asks parents to be partners in urging students to "live responsibly." Please discuss health and safety issues with your students, including substance abuse and sexual misconduct, which are serious issues of concern on campuses nationwide. Resources and information are available here. All students are expected to uphold high standards of behavior and to respect all community members, including those whose race, nationality, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion or culture may differ from their own.
I encourage you to follow SMU on Twitter and to check regularly the SMU home page and parents' site to keep up to date on what's happening at SMU and the many opportunities that will enrich your student's collegiate experience. Congratulations on your choice of SMU, and welcome to the Hilltop.
R. Gerald Turner

The Red Bull boss says "f1 not racing anymore" it was certainly racing for FERRARI and Lotus in Spain, why was it not for his team? Why were they not capable to race flat out like FERRARI and Lotus did? If it was because of the tyres why wasn't it the same for FERRARI and Lotus?.

BC Cafe Meal Plan
Students can purchase a meal plan with a minimum deposit of $20. Students receive a 10% discount, and they are not charged sales tax (currently 7.85%). That is almost a 20% savings.
Do the Math
If a student purchases a $3 meal, instead of costing $3.24 including taxes, it will only cost $2.70, saving the student $0.54.
How to Purchase
- Go to the Cashier's Office on the 2nd floor.
- Request a Carriage Café meal plan.
- Pay the minimum $20.
- Allow the cashier to link your payment with your student ID card.
- Allow 24 hours for the funds to become available.
Go to the BC Cafe website for more information.
For students living at the Plaza or the Lodge housing are required to purchase a $500 meal plan through the LDS Business College because these facilites don't have personal food preparation facilities. See the BC Café Meal Plan Policy for more information.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will $500 feed my student for the whole semester?
- No. Rarely is a student who eats at BC Cafe able make the $500 last the whole semester. Obviously the more meals they eat at BC Cafe, the quicker their money will be used up.
I thought the BC Cafe was there to supply my student with 3 meals/day, 7 days/week. Why are you closed for holidays, Saturdays, and Sundays?
- Since the $500 will not last the entire semester, and since LDS Business College does not require students to buy a meal plan like most colleges (the $500 is required only if you will be living in certain housing units, and only a one-time payment, unlike most college meal plans that require that amount or more every single semester), we are not required to be and should not be expected to be the sole provider of every meal the students consume.
- We have found through careful study and planning that certain times of the week are not cost effective to be open. For example, we used to be open on Saturdays and Sundays, but students rarely visited the BC Cafe during those times. Additionally, holidays and semester breaks are times that most students either go home or have other activities occupying their time, so it is not cost effective to stay open.
- The BC Cafe is self-sustaining, meaning that as an auxiliary department of the LDS Business College, no tuition or other funds should be used to operate the BC Cafe. We try to serve tasty, well rounded meals that are cost-effective for the students. There is a balancing act that goes on in deciding where to price our food. We could charge a higher price to increase our margins, but we want to keep the prices down so more students can afford to eat at BC Cafe. If we served lower quality food items, certainly our costs would decrease, but we probably wouldn't get repeat customers. In addition, about 1/2 of our sales come from outside customers, from places such as KSL television and radio, Triad Center employees, and Fidelity Investments. These customers expect a fairly high quality of food.
- All of these factors go into what we do regarding menu, pricing, quality and value. With these in mind we schedule our hours of operation to maximize our efforts. We try to be open only during those hours of the day when we will get the highest amount of customers in the shortest amount of time. This saves on labor costs, wasted food that no one purchases and other associated costs of running the BC Cafe.
If you are not open, what options does my student have for those meals?
- There are many options available. There is a Walmart Supercenter just one block from the Trax station at 1300 South where they can buy groceries. Also, there is a Harmons Grocery Store one block East of the City Creek Trax station. Their housing provides small refrigerators and means for heating up meals. The Gateway shopping center is just one Trax station past the college, and there are many fast food and sit down dining options available there.
When my student uses up all the money on their account, what should we do?
- In case you are not aware, when students use their account they receive a 10% discount, and they are not charged sales tax (currently 7.85%). If your student wishes to continue eating at BC Cafe you should add more money onto their account. This process needs to be done at the Cashier's Office at LDS Business College. This can be accomplished either by sending money to your student and having them go to the Cashier's Office, or by calling the office at 801-524-8153. The funds will then be added to your student's meal plan account within 24 hours. There is a minimum deposit required of $20.00.
- We have seen in some cases that a student will have used all the funds in their account, then pay with cash or credit/debit card for the remainder of the semester in anticipation of adding more money onto their account for the next semester. However, by doing this they do not get the discount and they have to pay sales tax. The discounts only apply when using funds from their account. This is due to government regulations and their definition of what constitutes a meal plan. If possible, always keep money in your student's account so that they can take advantage of the available discounts.
Will the money on my student's account still be there when they return next semester?
- Yes. Any funds in their account will continue to be there when they return next semester.
My student will not be returning to LDS Business College but they have money in their account. Can they get a refund?
- No. They have two options. 1) They can spend all the money in their account by making purchases at the BC Cafe or at the Bookstore. 2) The funds in the account stay in the account for 1 full year after the student stops attending LDS Business College. They can continue to use that account until the funds are used up, even if they are not attending LDSBC. If you have any questions about this policy, please call the LDSBC Cashiers Office at 801-524-8153.
Can my student buy food for their friends and family with their account?
- Yes. Your student can use the funds in their account however they wish. Either a student ID or other ID is required to use an account, so your student must be present to buy food for their friends and family. We cannot not allow anyone to access a student account without ID.
How can I find out how much money is remaining on my student's account?
- Every time a purchase is made, your student may request a copy of the receipt. This will show the remaining account balance. We do not provide this information otherwise. If you wish to find out the balance, please ask your student to provide that for you.

"What a desperate Obama is telling rich Hollywood pals these days"
Andrew Malcolm, IBD:
For months now Barack Obama has been saying he's run his last political campaign. Uh-huh. If you believe Obama would give up his favorite pastime just to focus on the nation's business and because he's not a candidate, then you can keep your health plan. Period.
In good times and bad, Obama is out there raking in the money for himself or the party or congressional campaign committees. You may recall, the day after the four Benghazi murders, he was fundraising in Vegas. The same day as the most recent Fort Hood shooting memorial service, he was fundraising in Houston.
And Wednesday after a quick survey of Arkansas tornado damage, Obama was fundraising.
In California, of all places. Obama doesn't even make a pretense of listening or speaking to real voters there. For the man who's presided over a steep jump in income inequality, the golden state is merely the nation's most populous ATM full of faithful, gullible rich folks.
Word is it's a little bit harder these days to sell out his events. So, they're held in backyard tents that can more easily be filled.
And his fundraising speeches are shorter too. For couples who paid $64,000 to dine in the Bel Air backyard of Disney chairman Alan Horn, the experience of hearing Hillary Clinton's former boss cost almost $5,000 per minute — or $41 for each of Obama's 1,570 words, 23 of them "I."
Obama forgot to say words like "Affordable Care Act" or "ObamaCare," for reasons possibly connected with their steaming unpopularity.
This spring's fundraiser-speech theme is "OMG, we've got to keep Senate control and win back the House so California's own Nancy Pelosi can help protect all the wonderful things we have accomplished these past five years." Also, "Our people are not as diligent about voting in midterms as the other side."
And the first Democrat president to win reelection since Clinton diagnosed another serious problem. He left out his Libyan war that turned that country over to al Qaeda and he didn't say "malaise." But Obama did say:
"Despite all that, despite ending two wars, despite the progress that we've made on issues that are important to everybody here, there's still disquiet around the country. There's an anxiety and sense of frustration. And the reason is, is because people understand that for all that we've done, the challenges out there remain daunting and we have a Washington that's not working."
— Which, if I may interject, is only partially true. Washington is not working when the GOP establishment refuses to represent the wishes of its constituency and surrenders to Democrats in order to avoid looking like "obstructionists." Which is much of the time, granted. But at other times, however wobbly, they manage to stand their ground and block legislation Obama wants — which is what the President means when he refers to "a Washington that's not working," though like in nearly every case, he's quite wrong: this is precisely how Congress was designed, as part of a system of checks and balances and a way to slow down the legislative imperatives of a faux-populist juggernaut.
Of course, Obama has found away around that: he's essentially turned the presidency into a monarchy, which grants him title of King. And it's good to be the king — though as Obama constantly emotes, heavy is the head that wears the crown, what with all these stupid bitterclingers so unappreciative of his efforts to fix the world for us and recreate it in His image.
But I digress.
The president, however, voiced optimism because "the good news is we've got public opinion on our side."
Which is news, indeed.
Except for history's pattern of a White House incumbent's party getting pasted in second-term congressional elections. Obama's job approval rating now at its lowest level ever. Even worse approval of his economic performance. Overwhelming public dislike of ObamaCare. Its hollow numbers and soaring costs, with worse to come. Almost four people gave up on job-hunting last month for every one who got hired.
And new polls showing the GOP pulling ahead in popularity on the generic congressional ballot. But other than that, Obama is telling the truth again.
It's a long time until Nov. 4, of course — 180 days to be precise. And Obama could still kill Osama bin Laden again. But since when does reality reign in the Obama administration?
Not to nitpick here, but "reality," to the leftist antifoundationalist mind, is tied to perception, and as they control the message — and so hope to control the perception — they sincerely do believe that what they say, in an effort to will it into being, is indeed reality, at least, when they succeed in entrenching the narrative they've created.
It's the ultimate narcissistic conceit.
— Well, that is, unless you count the belief that you and your fellow travelers are much smarter than anyone and everyone that came before you, that history is alive and begins anew with you as part of its inevitable, teleological march, and that therefore you were put on this earth to run it entirely by your own lights, shepherding the poor masses into their domestic pens and, in the end, making the place comfortable for you and yours to gaze upon, freed from the blight of anything that doesn't fit the mental image of Utopia your Fabian and Marxist mentors drilled into your youthful mush brains.
But then, that's just really splitting hairs, isn't it?

16:55, UK, Thursday 30 October 2003
Arsenal FC have been fined £175,000 for their part in the ugly scenes that followed the bad-tempered clash with Manchester United at Old Trafford. Several other players have been suspended by the Football Association.
The brawl erupted at the end of the game after Arsenal player Martin Keown dropped his arm on Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy.
Those punished include:
- Martin Keown - three-match suspension and £20,000 fine
- Lauren - four-match suspension and £40,000
- Ray Parlour - one-match suspension and £10,000 fine.
- Ashley Cole - fined £10,000.
- Patrick Vieira - one-match suspension and £20,000.
Van Nistelrooy was accused of deliberately trying to get midfielder Patrick Viera sent off earlier in the match.
The Arsenal players responded at the final whistle by surrounding the Dutchman , pushing and shoving him.
Defence Martin Keown ran behind van Nistelrooy and jumped in front of him, triggering a 22-man brawl.
Ray Parlour and England defender Ashley Cole also pushed and abused the striker.
Lauren faced one charge of violent behaviour, for pushing van Nistelrooy in the back, and two of improper conduct, for confronting van Nistelrooy and kicking out at Quinton.
Keown faced one charge of violent behaviour towards van Nistelrooy.
Parlour admitted two charges of improper conduct for separate confrontations with van Nistelrooy and Gary Neville.
Ashley Cole faced a charge of improper conduct for a confrontation with Cristiano Ronaldo.
And Vieira faced an improper conduct charge for failing to leave the field after being sent off.
The match ended 0-0.
In a separate development, Uefa has fined the FA £4,400 and Turkish FA £13,300 for improper conduct of their players relating to the tunnel fracas at half-time in the Euro 2004 qualifier in Istanbul

Senior Congress leader and former Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh today disapproved of demands by some Sikh groups for UN intervention into 1984 Operation Blue Star, wondering what an international agency will do about the "old incident" about which "everything is known".
"I do not know what international agencies are going to do here. This is a 30-year-old incident. It was 1984. What are they going to probe now. Everything is recorded. Everything is known," the Congress' Deputy Leader in Lok Sabha told reporters outside Parliament.
Replying to questions about some Sikh group's demand for UN intervention, which has been opposed by Akalis, the Amritsar MP said, "They know about the military, CRPF and BSF intervention. They know about what was happening prior to Blue Star. What any international agency is going to probe into."
The 30th anniversary of Operation Blue Star was observed today at Akal Takht at the marbled periphery of Harmandhar Sahib popularly known as Golden Temple.
The operation was carried out on June 6, 1984 to flush out Sikh extremists led by Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale from the Golden Temple.
Bhindranwale and his associates were killed during Operation Blue Star.

The Nature-formed Bridge with a height of 135 meters and a span length of 60 meters is a ruin after the limestone cave collapsed while the bridge bow is 15 meters thick and the surface of the bridge is 30 meters long. Especially, this bridge is the highest nature-formed one which can support motor vehicles running on. At both sides of the bridge there are mountain valleys, caves and underground rivers around. There are still a lot of nature-formed bridges here and there which consist of a marvelous natural phenomenon. On April 2nd, 1966 the Geological Research Institute of the Academy of Sciences of China successfully held a Technology Competition of Flower Jumping Festival of Miao and International Caves which attracted thousands of visitors and cave experts.
Qinlin Miao Nationality Village:
The Qinlin Miao Nationalities who live in Haifa village in Water Town, 60 kilometers away from Liupanshui city is one of the eight branches of Miao nationality. The embroideries on the shoulder, the ridge and the sleeve are very special. It is a custom for men to wear feather ornaments while women enjoy wrapping their heads with orange and yellow knitting wool as ornaments. Here what deserves to be mentioned in the village is a kind of dance which has been introduced into many big cities such as Shengzhen, Dalian, Hong Kong and Beijing as well as Malaysia. This kind of dance that once won great fame in the International Youth Arts festival in Mosco in 1958 is famous for its characteristic including prance, step, twist, shift, turn and repeat.
Nankai Flower Festival:
There lives a small branch of Miao nationality in the Nankai Township in Liupanshui city. Although this small Miao group live in the mountainous area, their dresses are magnificent, simple and unsophisticated, modern and hot and their festivals are in a bold and flowing style as well as ceremonious.
These Miao nationalities live in tens of villages in Water town, Weinin, Nayong, and so on. They live on corn, potatoes, red buckwheat and sweet potatoes; their bright costume are very special because the women choose red knitting wool ornaments to wrap their simply-done up hair to express their best wishes; and their "color back" broidered with red, yellow and black silk threads is bold and exaggerating spreading their unique characteristics.
On February 15th of the lunar calendar the Miao people from far and near will gather at Nankai to cerebrate the Flower Jumping Festival. On this occasion the youth dance and are concerned with love and romance while the married men and women visit their relatives enjoying feasts. The senior ladies sing "Bitter Love Songs" to exchange their experience of labor and life and bless for a happy future.

Audience catches a ride downtown in 'Trolley Dances'
"Trolley Dances"
When: Six tours daily (beginning on the hour) 10 a.m.-3 p.m. today and next Saturday-Sunday
Where: Tours begin on the west side of the County Administration Building, 1600 Pacific Highway
Tickets: $15-$30
Phone: (619) 225-1803
Let's get one thing straight: Dancers do not perform on moving trolleys! At "Trolley Dances," it's the audience that rides the trolley, taking an approximately two-hour guided tour to six performance sites located at or close to Metropolitan Transit System stations.
In its 11-year history, "Trolley Dances" has gone everywhere from lovely plazas to gritty vacant lots to the interiors of libraries to surprising bits of urban wilderness. And the juxtapositions of dance and public places have left some indelible impressions.
San Diegan Mindy Donner recalls "a wild space (in Mission Valley) with a grand-limbed tree in which dancers were hanging, while others tooted and pounded on junk instruments. I could barely hold back from joining them."
An unforgettable piece for Encinitas resident Marilyn Mitchell was "a sensuous, writhing duet … in a fountain that spurted up from the sidewalk in random bursts. The hip-hop music pulsated while we all kept our eyes on the slippery, sexy dancing couple. Gorgeous."
This year, "Trolley Dances" takes place downtown, this weekend and next. Tours start (and tickets are available) outside the County Administration Building.
The choreographers include Jean Isaacs, whose San Diego Dance Theater produces the event, and four guest artists: Monica Bill Barnes from New York, Isabel Beteta de Cou from Mexico City, and San Diegans Bradley Lundberg and Pat Sandback.
Although the dances tend to be lighthearted, creating a site-specific piece is an artistic challenge, Isaacs says. "What makes a dance truly site-specific is if you couldn't do it anywhere else. It would be so altered, the integrity would be changed."
Isaacs is doing two pieces, one at a fountain with a statue of a Native American woman and another in a lounge for toddlers at The New Children's Museum.
Inspiration at the Children's Museum has come from kids who happen to be there during rehearsals, she says. "As soon as we're done with a run, they'll come out and try the things we were doing. And I must say we've borrowed some of the things we've seen them do."
While some dances echo the mood and character of their settings, another approach is to go for dramatic contrast. Beteta de Cou, whose site has the ocean as a backdrop, wants the effect of "a small circle of human bodies closed toward each other in front of the vast sea beyond." A recipient of Mexico's highest dance award, the Premio José Limón, Beteta de Cou is making her "Trolley Dances" debut.
For Barnes, "it's less about the physical possibilities of the space and more what are the possibilities in imagery and within my imagination — what would you never expect to see in this space?"
A former student of Isaacs' at the University of California San Diego, Barnes is a rising star in New York. This year, her company debuted at four top venues — Jacob's Pillow, the Joyce Theatre, the American Dance Festival and the Bates Dance Festival. She has made memorable work for "Trolley Dances," most recently a funny-poignant piece at a swimming pool at a Mission Valley apartment complex; the 2008 dance began with women struggling to look chic in little cocktail dresses and ended with their supporting one another, floating in the water.
This is fifth time Barnes has participated in "Trolley Dances," and she's learned the hard way to wait until she's actually at her site before thinking about what to do there. "I used to come with distinctive concepts, and they never worked."

Mix it up a little with this Robert Rodriguez Black Denim & Leather Jacket ($656)! There's a hint of black denim and black leather and the combo is simply divine! We can wear this during the day without looking overdressed and we can set the night on fire with this sexy motorcycle jacket. We seriously dig the stretchy quality of the combined fabrics because it helps mold to our shape almost instantly and we love how it only looks better the more we wear it. This thing will look amazingly worn-in in a few months!
