USC Trojans Football Tickets - Overview
3/25/15: The rest of f the Pac-12 better be ready for the USC Trojans in 2015. USC has done a terrific job of overcoming their NCAA sanctions under former head coach Pete Carroll (who fled to the NFL just before the hammer came down). The Trojans have their full arsenal of scholarships back and head coach Steve Sarkesian did a fine job in his first season. Now, it looks like the new Pac-12 will look a lot like the old Pac-12 (or Pac-10), with USC being the dominant team and everyone else just playing for second place. Do not be surprised if the Trojans are in the playoffs next season.
3/11/15: USC was able to land one of the most highly coveted players at any position a year ago with Adoree Jackson. Anyone who saw his high school highlight reels will attest that he has a special talent. In fact, USC's official website refers to him as "the most exciting player in college football". The Trojans seem intent on expanding his role for his sophomore season and he is working on both offense and defense in spring practices. He actually played on all three units last season, getting work at wide receiver, corner back and kick returns. If USC can return to national prominence, then he could be a Heisman candidate for the next couple of years.
3/4/15: Pete Carroll was brought to USC in 2001 to resurrect a listless football program. The move was not well received at the time, as Carroll was known for having unsuccessful stints as head coach of both the New York Jets and New England Patriots. However, Carroll rewrote the narrative and built USC into a national powerhouse over nine seasons, winning the 2005 National Championship and making another appearance in 2006, where the Trojans were upset by Vince Young (and the rest of the Texas Longhorns were at the game as well). USC is now bestowing an honorary degree to Carroll and will induct him into USC's athletics hall of fame.
2/25/15: The University of Southern California is waiting, with open arms, to welcome the NFL back to Los Angeles. Three NFL teams, the St. Louis Rams, Oakland Raiders and San Diego Chargers, are all jockeying for position to move to L.A., and they have their plans to open up their own stadiums (Oakland and San Diego are proposing a shared stadium). But those stadiums will not be ready for a few years, so USC is offering the L.A. Coliseum as a stop-gap solution while one or more stadium is being built. Of course, USC expects a little something for the effort.
2/18/15: Sometimes, minor moves make a big difference. In terms of recruiting, a position coach or coordinator going or staying may make all the difference in the world to a young man deciding where to play his college football. The Oklahoma State Cowboys may have to worry if any of their offensive line recruits are having second thoughts since USC hired their offensive line coach, Bob Connelly, last week. USC had an opening because Tim Drevno, who had that job, fled to Michigan to be Jim Harbaugh's offensive coordinator. Connelly is very familiar with the Pac-12, having coached at Arizona State, UCLA and Washington State in his career.
2/11/15: Leave it to USC to stop Alabama's streak of top recruiting classes. Well, at least depending on which ranking service used to determined the evaluation of 17 and 18 year old kids and give fans starved for college football something to talk about. USC was the last team to beat out Alabama for the best recruiting class in the nation, and that was five years ago under Lane Kiffin. This year, Steve Sarkesian and crew closed exceptionally strong and landed four 5-star recruits. That may have everyone in the Pac-12 looking up to the Trojans in the standings in the near future.
2/4/15: Looking at the list of USC commitments just a few days before National Signing Day is quite interesting. The first thing that jumps out is that Rivals has them ranked second, behind only Alabama. The next item is that there are no five-star recruits committed (either orally or by letter of intent) to the Trojans. Instead, of their 20 commits, 17 of them are four-star guys. USC looks like they did a great job of keeping California talent at home as most are from the Golden State. While a good recruiting class is not a guarantee of success, it certainly helps out - and this class looks like it is a statement to the rest of the Pac-12 that USC is officially back.
1/28/15: USC seems like they are mad at the NCAA and for good reason. The NCAA reduces the penalties on Penn State from the Jerry Sandusky scandal. However, they never did the same for USC, which faced a much lower charge. Athletic Director Pat Hayden is frustrated with the NCAA and even visited them right after the Penn State penalties were lowered. At this point, it does not make much of a difference since USC is finished with their penalties. Still, it seems completely unfair and arbitrary that one school gets a reduction while another has to serve the full term.
1/14/15: One of the pitfalls of having a nationally recognized program that routinely gets top recruits is that the top underclassmen often time forego their senior season (or sometimes their junior season as well) to go to the NFL. The USC Trojans are dealing with that right now as Javorius "Buck" Allen announced that he was heading to the professional ranks a year early. The running back averaged 114.5 yards per game on the ground, which was good for 22nd nationally. Running backs are quickly-used commodities in the NFL and they do not have a long lifespan, so it may be for the best that he gets in there as soon as he can.
1/7/15: The USC Trojans ended their season on a high note by outlasting the Nebraska Cornhuskers 45-42 in the Holiday Bowl. The Holiday Bowl has traditionally been a game with a lot of offense and very little defense. This was no different. QB Cody Kessler had a nice game with 321 yards and three TDs. He also announced he will return next season. Freshman Adoree' Jackson was the star, though. He returned a kickoff for 98 yards and a score as well as turned a short pass into a 71 yard touchdown. With both Kessler and Jackson back next season, the Trojans could be a major factor in Pac-12 next season.
12/3/14: Not making it to the conference championship game is frustrating, as USC continues to rebuild itself into an elite program, but beating long-time rival Notre Dame in the final game of the regular season is pretty nice. Actually, the term 'beating' is an understatement. USC embarrassed Notre Dame 49-14, sending the Irish to their fifth loss in their last six games. The game was not even close. USC was up 35-0 in the second quarter before ceding a touchdown. QB Cody Kessler threw for 372 yards and six touchdowns - the first time in history someone has thrown six TDs against the Irish.
11/19/14: USC improved to 7-3 overall and 6-2 in the Pac-12 by holding off Cal (5-5, 3-5) last Thursday night at home. USC jumped out to a 31-2 lead with less than two minutes remaining in the first half. But the Bears scored just before the half then battled back throughout the second half to make a game of it. The Trojans prevailed, though, 38-30. USC QB Cody Kessler had another outstanding game with 371 yards and four touchdowns. He is completing over 70% of his passes on the season, though he did throw his third interception (versus 29 TDs). The Trojans play cross-town rival at UCLA this Saturday.
11/12/14: All teams get bye weeks. Sometimes, they are a good chance to regroup as a team and sometimes they kill momentum. USC has to hope the bye last weekend is not of the latter type. USC improved to 6-3 on the season and 5-2 in the Pac-12 by blasting Washington State a couple of weeks ago. Running back Javorius Allen made that the sixth consecutive game (and eighth of nine games overall) that he has rushed for over 100 yards. The next game for the Trojans is on Thursday night when Cal comes calling. The Bears also had a bye last weekend and are 5-4 overall and 3-4 in conference play.
11/5/14: USC's hope for getting into the College Football Playoffs were ruined a few weeks ago, but they will go bowling in the first season of the Steve Sarkesian Era. The Trojans earned their sixth overall victory and fifth conference win last Saturday by routing Washington State 44-17 on the road. This one was all USC, taking a 24-0 lead in the second quarter and keeping their foot on the gas all night. QB Cody Kessler had a monster day with 400 yards passing, five touchdowns and no interceptions. Its a quick turnaround, though, as the Trojans host Cal on Thursday night.
10/29/14: The Trojans are a step up from a year ago, but they are still not back to the days of competing for national championships and dominating the Pac-12. But they are getting there. They just need to learn how to win games like last Saturday's at No. 20 Utah. This was an evenly matched game, with USC getting the offensive nod in yardage. The Trojans took the lead in the fourth quarter but could not hold on, as Utah scored the winning touchdown with 8 seconds left. Final score: USC 21, Utah 24. USC fell to 5-3 overall and 4-2 in the Pac-12. Southern Cal is back home this Saturday to host Washington State.
10/22/14: USC entered last weekend ranked 22nd in the country, but still smarting from the losses to Boston College and Arizona State. So they took out those frustrations on the Colorado Buffalos to the tune of a 56-28 blowout. QB Cody Kessler finished 19 of 26 passing for 319 yards and a whopping seven touchdown passes. The running game was strong as well, gaining 213 yards and a score on the day. The win leaves USC 5-2 overall and 4-1 in the Pac-12 - and still with a chance to play for the conference championship. The Trojans are on the road this Saturday at Utah, who survived Oregon State 29-23 in double overtime.
10/15/14: Just a few weeks ago, after USC went up to Stanford and beat the Cardinal, it would have been unthinkable that Arizona would be ranked 10th nationally and USC unranked when they met in Week 7. But that is exactly what happened. The Trojans scored a quality win on the road against the Wildcats, surviving 28-26. They primarily survived because Arizona kicker Casey Skowron went 2 for 5 on the night, including missing the game winning field goal as time expired. Nonetheless, USC improved to 4-2 on the season and 3-1 in the Pac 12. They have a chance to build on this victory on Saturday when they host the Colorado Buffalos.
10/8/14: Like many top 25 teams, No. 16 USC could not escape an upset in Week 6. The Trojans hosted a feisty Arizona State team last Saturday, but this seemed to be a weekend where a lot of highly regarded teams were beat. USC lost 38-34 on a last second Hail Mary. The Trojans seemed to have control of the game, but were not able to put it away. USC was up by 11 with only three minutes to play, so this is a devastating loss. The Trojans fall to 3-2 on the season and 2-1 in the Pac 12. It doesn't get much easier this Saturday when USC heads to Arizona, who just upset Oregon on the road.
10/1/14: As long as USC can stay relatively healthy, they still have a shot at winning the Pac-12 and getting into the playoffs. After defeating the visiting Oregon State Beavers last Saturday, the Trojans sit at 3-1 on the season and 2-0 in the conference. The game against Oregon State featured some fun highlights, including a pick-six and a successful hail mary pass as time expired at the end of the first half. Teams usually win when they get scores like that. The Trojans limited the Beavers to a single field goal in the second half, which keeps them on top of the Pac-12 South. The Trojans host Arizona State this Saturday.
9/24/14: While the Texas Longhorns have lost their starting quarterback, David Ash, forever due to concussions, the USC Trojans have lost defensive back D.J. Morgan. Morgan left the team, but not for medical or grievance reasons. He remains in school but wants to run track. Morgan is not giving up on a football career, but is just putting it on hold for now. For what it is worth, the USC coaching staff is supportive of the move and realizes that it may not be permanent. The Trojans were off last weekend but get back to football games this Saturday when they host Oregon State.
9/17/14: The Trojans were on the wrong side of the biggest upset of the weekend when they were beaten 37-31 by Boston College. USC came into the game ranked 9th in the country and still high on a big road win at Stanford the previous week. But the Eagles simply played to their strength, with is running the football. BC put up 453 rushing yards and gave up only 20. The biggest takeaway for the Trojans is that they are vulnerable to the read-option offense and must learn how to defend. USC will have a week to do that with a bye this weekend before taking on Oregon State in a Pac-12 matchup.
8/28/14: It is year one for new USC head coach Steve Sarkesian. That means, normally, he will have a bit of a long leash in terms of the progress of the program - especially since USC is just now coming off of their NCAA sanctions. That does not mean they are expected to lose, it just means that expectations are tempered. USC opens the season against Fresno State on Saturday but they may be without running back Tre Madden, who is battling a hamstring injury. That is not ideal, but 'bellcow' Javorious Allen should be playing, and the Trojans have the depth to overcome the injury.
8/21/14: The Trojans had a scary moment last week but ultimately endured unscathed. A defensive lineman was blocked in a scrimmage play and nearly rolled up on starting QB Cody Kessler's leg. Luckily, Kessler got his leg out 'just in time'. Kessler was not hurt but did admit that it affected him mentally for a bit. All in all, the Trojans were tremendously fortunate that no real damage occurred and Kessler is still set to be the starting QB when USC opens their season. Kessler had a good first season in throwing 20 touchdowns and completing 65 percent of his passes.
8/14/14: USC has paid its dues for the alleged violations in their program under former head coach Pete Carroll and it trying to get back to national relevance. They have played with a shortened roster for the past several years due to scholarship limitations. Now they are going to be down a man for academic reasons. Tight end Jalen Cope-Fitzpatrick was a potential starter this season but has been declared academically ineligible for the 2014 season. That means that the Trojans have only two scholarship players at tight end right now - senior Randall Telfer and freshman Bryce Dixon.
8/7/14: The preseason coach's poll was released last week and USC was ranked 15th. That was behind Pac-12 rivals Oregon (4), UCLA (7) and Stanford (11). Predictably, the National Champion Florida State Seminoles were first and Alabama was second. The 15th spot is very debatable. USC is much better, at least on paper, than last season and have fulfilled their NCAA sanctions. But the defense is still a question mark with only a few more weeks until the season starts. The good news is that even a modest improvement in the defensive side of the ball could put the Trojans at or near the top of the Pac-12.
7/31/14: USC is finally past the penalties and sanctions from the number of violations of past regimes. In a nutshell, that means that they expect to be more competitive this season and beyond as their scholarship numbers increase and they try to become a national power again. The team has had four different head coaches in the last 10 months, but now has stability following the hire of Steve Sarkesian. Sarkesian spoke at the Pac-12 Media Days last week and actually commended the work of his predecessors Lane Kiffen and Ed Ogeron, particularly in recruiting guys that are still together through a lot of adversity.
7/24/14: Perhaps more than any other program, USC is pushing the benefits to their student athletes. Or perhaps more programs are doing these type of things but USC has a better PR machine. In any case, the school says it will spend over $1 million next school year on an 'enhanced fueling plan' for student athletes. In other words, seven figures on snacks and beverages. Of course, the snacks and four year scholarships that USC is now offering are very appealing to potential recruits, so maybe there is more than a motive to feed their players well.
7/17/14: USC has a storied football tradition, and is generally considered one of the elite programs in all of college football. But just 15 years ago, the program was simply average and well past its peak. USC hired former Patriots coach Pete Carroll to resurrect the program and he did so with amazing success. Carroll won championships, produced star players and brought swagger back to USC. He is now being honored by the school by being enshrined in their hall of fame. Since leaving USC, Carroll added Super Bowl champion to his resume as his Seattle Seahawks claimed that honor last season.
7/10/14: If we travel back in time to a few years ago, it was expected that this season would QB Max Wittek's time to shine at USC. He was beaten out for the starter's job, so he is now transferring. Initial reports indicated that he would end up at Texas as a graduate transfer, meaning that he would not have to sit out a year. That possibility is pretty much gone now as new reports indicate that he did not graduate yet. So Wittek may be on his way to the University of Hawaii to play for Norm Chow. If he does, then he would have to sit out a year as a regular transfer and would have one more year of eligibility.
7/3/14: The Trojans have upped the ante in college benefits game by going all-in on four year scholarships for athletes. Make no mistake, this could be a game changer. Traditionally, players are given a series of one year scholarships for athletics. That means that they can lose a scholarship basically at any time. By giving a four year deal, it shows that the school is committed to the player and his development. It is not paying players for playing, but could be the first step in getting to that mark. It would not be surprising if other schools did the exact same thing.
6/26/14: The running back position may have been severely devalued in the pro game, but is still essential in college football. And USC looks to be one of the better rushing teams in the NCAA next season with their three headed monster of Tre Madden, Buck Allen and Justin Davis. New head coach Steve Sarkesian likes to use the no huddle offense and that will help catch defenses without the proper personnel to stop these three running backs. The Florida State Seminoles used a three headed attack last year, and all they did was win the National Championship. That may be a bit grandiose for the Trojans this season, but certainly they will have one of the better rushing attacks around.
6/19/14: OK, this is pretty cool if you are a USC fan. Southern Cal announced over the weekend that they are adding premium suites just a few yards behind the east endzone of the Coliseum. That means that the high rollers get to sit at field level and will as close to the action as anyone in all of college or pro football. There will be 10 field suites that can hold 16 people each. This is a very unique stadium option and one that other programs may try to incorporate (if they have the space) in order to increase attendance and revenues. The field suites will be open for business in the 2014 season.
6/12/14: You know your team is on the rise or is considered elite when the ticket prices go up. And that is exactly what is going on at USC right now. Many people expect a renaissance of the Pete Carroll days now that new head coach Steve Sarkesian is in charge. That may happen in time, but expectations are already sky high. The USC - UCLA game (in Pasadena) already has an average ticket price of $422 with the cheapest seats being $118. That ranks 11th of all college football games next season. That is pretty impressive and shows the growth of both programs.
6/6/14: Former assistant coach and interim head coach Ed Ogeron had plenty of good things to say about USC, even calling it the best place to coach in the NCAA. Ogeron is no longer with the program, as he abruptly quit once he found out that Steve Sarkesian would be the new head coach. Sark has a lot of talent on the roster, but that talent may need time to develop. They are projected at an 8-4 record next season with a small chance of winning the Pac-12. But consider that a one year blip. By 2015, this should be one of the best programs in the country again, and able to compete with the likes of FSU and Alabama.
5/29/14: Is it too early to talk about the Heisman Trophy race? Probably, but that has never stopped the media from looking at who are the potential candidates for the most overrated trophy in all of sports (despite the fact that the season on which they will be evaluated on is still over three months away). At any rate, USC Max Browne is on the watch list for underclassmen. The Heisman went through its entire history without a freshman winner, then Jameis Winston (FSU) and Johnny Manziel (Texas A&M) won the last two. Browne has all the talent to do the same. One caveat: Cody Kessler is the starter.
5/22/14: Well, this could be interesting. There are reports floating around that the USC Trojans and the Alabama Crimson Tide are trying to schedule neutral site game to open the 2016 season. Alabama may be trying to find a Big 5 partner to appease the new SEC scheduling requirements. The teams have met seven times throughout history, with the first being in 1938 and the most recent in the 1985 Aloha Bowl. That includes the famous game in 1970 in which an integrated USC team blew out an all-white Alabama team. USC holds the series lead five games to two. Nothing is official yet, but this would be great to see.
5/15/14: Like both Texas and Miami, the USC Spartans have struggled for the past few seasons and it has shown in both the win-loss column and at the NFL draft. New head coach Steve Sarkesian has the task of turning the first item around. If successful, then the draftees will take care of themselves. The highest profile player from USC in the 2014 draft was wide receiver Marqise Lee. Lee had a breakout sophomore season in 2012, but was limited due to injury in 2013. He has first round talent, but fell to the second round when he was selected by Jacksonville. He could start right away, as the Jags expect Michael Blackmon to be suspended.
5/8/14: It is the time of year to get overly excited about USC football. The team has a new head coach in Steve Sarkesisan, and apparently a new attitude. The Trojans lost QB Max Witteck to transfer, but should be just fine without him. Coach Sark's concern seems to be on the offensive line. Of course, it goes without saying that the offense goes as the O-line goes, and Sark believes that this unit needs a lot of work. If they can come together, and with a little help from some top recruits, then this could be a very competitive team in the fall.
5/1/14: Last week, the players for the Northwestern University football program cast their secret ballots on whether or not to unionize. Those answers, and the poll itself, will likely not be known for some time. It could affect whether or not players from other private colleges unionize as well. So USC has a vested interest in this process. USC players, reportedly, are interested in unionizing as well, and Athletic Director Pat Hayden has already met with the team to answer any questions. It remains to be seen if a football program can create a union, but this could have a major effect on college football going forward.
4/24/14: USC has so many quarterbacks that they kind of have a controversy on their hands. Max Wittek is leaving, and there is a good chance he will end up in Texas - so at least he will not be a problem. Head coach Steve Sarkisian named incumbent Cody Kessler the starter, which many expected. But where does that leave highly prized recruit Max Browne? Browne says that he is not transferring after losing the position battle. Kessler still has two more years of eligibility remaining, so it may be quite some time before Browne sees meaningful playing time.
4/17/14: By all accounts, new head coach Steve Sarkisian led an outstanding recruiting effort (and in a hurry). The biggest 'get' was Adoree Jackson. Trojan fans have been waiting to see this youngster and Coach Sark has some bi. g plans for him. He will reportedly start out playing both offense and defense, with a resolution coming in the summer. Jackson is more than a gifted athlete, he is outstanding at both cornerback and wide receiver. Perhaps he could be a two-way player in the new USC scheme. Chances are that he will be committed to one side of the ball only, but it is an interesting idea to have him on both offense and defense.
4/10/14: The Trojans and their fans do not want a prolonged return to prominence, they want to be back on top of the Pac 12 quickly. New head coach Steve Sarkisian had himself a pretty good recruiting season, and the newcomers seem to understand that they may be expected to impact the team right away. USC has fived early enrollees this spring, meaning these guys are getting to participate in spring practices. That certainly is an advantage, rather than wait until the summer to learn the college schemes and adjust to a higher level of play. Sarkisian is yet to coach a game for USC, but the program seems to be benefiting from a change in coach and philosophy.
4/3/14: Many experts believe that Keyshawn Johnson Jr., son of USC standout wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson will eventually head to USC for his college football. Key Jr. is being recruited by several big programs, including Miami, Ohio State, and reigning national champion Florida State. The Trojans are also looking at five-star running back recruit Damien Harris. Harris named his top ten and USC, Alabama, FSU, Auburn, Ohio State and Michigan are all on the list. Harris is a junior at Madison Southern High School in Berea, Kentucky, so he does have a little while before he has to decide.
3/27/14: Southern California picked up a key commit recently as the nation's second-ranked pro-style QB, Ricky Town, committed to the Trojans. USC has a few QBs on the roster now, but really is looking for that 'franchise' guy to lead the team for a number of years. Incidentally, the nation's top ranked pro-style QB recruit, Josh Rosen, committed to cross town rival UCLA last week. That potentially means that the USC and UCLA rivalry could be heating up in the coming years with two of the best college quarterbacks at their respective helms. Like it or not, it is good for the Pac-12 and all of college football.
3/20/14: Though many people would hate to admit it, college football is better when USC is good. And that is where they are trying to get back to. The last three seasons have been more than disappointing. Many may blame former head coach Lane Kiffin, but it actually goes back to the Pete Carroll days. There were some NCAA violations that hampered the program; Kiffin may not have been the right head coach, but he was (probably) not responsible for the sanctions that USC had to endure. But USC should be back to rebuilding this season, and back to competing for national championships in the very near future.
3/13/14: Over the past two decades, the NCAA has tried to find the most objective way to rank teams. That inevitably leads to arguments surrounding a one-loss team from a strong conference (such as the SEC) versus an undefeated team from a less demanding conference (such as the Mountain West or even the ACC). It becomes even more important next season when the NCAA goes to a playoff. USC will not get off guard on this one, as they have a very difficult schedule next season which includes the Pac-12, but also features Notre Dame in the annual rivalry game (at home).
3/6/14: It has been a few years since Pete Carroll last coached the Trojans, but he is not shy about speaking his mind. Carroll was very critical of the NCAA and how they handled the Reggie Bush and O.J. Mayo situations (both were accused of receiving benefits that they were not eligible to receive). The USC football program received a sanction of losing 30 scholarships over three years. The team is just now getting out from that cloud and is looking forward to starting fresh this season with new head coach Steve Sarkesian. Still, Pete Carroll is not happy about how things played out for his former employer.
The USC Trojans play Division I college football for the University of Southern California in the recently formed Pacific 12 (Pac-12) Conference. The Trojans play their home games at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum in Los Angeles, CA. USC is coached by Steve Sarkasian. The Trojans' biggest rivals are Notre Dame and UCLA.
2/27/14: Well, its good to see that USC still considers themselves to be the at the top of the NCAA football food chain (even though their performance for the past several years would dictate otherwise). The school issued an apology last week for an Instagram post that referred to running back Jalen Hurd as 'soft and terrible'. Apparently, a USC coach or staffer made that comment during National Signing day when Hurd chose Tennessee over USC. Of course, if he was 'soft and terrible' USC would not have wanted him and would not have been so upset at his decision. Chalk it up to sour grapes and political correctness. And it would be fun if the Vols played the Trojans in a bowl game in the near future.
2/20/14: Sometimes, even smart people make questionable or even foolish decisions. Such is the case with USC. The school has deleted and now apologized for a short video from National Signing Day which had background audio that criticizes a recruit for signing with Tennessee. The recruit in question is 6'3, 230 pound, five-star running back Jalen Hurd. What makes this more interesting is that the voice may be from former Vols QB Tee Martin, who is now an assistant at USC. This is just another reminder that people must be careful of what they say in this world of social media, because private is not always private.
2/13/14: USC looks like they have turned the corner. They landed a top five recruiting class, which included keeping a lot of four star and five star recruits in California. Certainly, there was a lot of apprehension concerning the recruiting this season with a change of head coaching. However, it looks like the combination of the USC pedigree and new HC Steve Sarkesisan was a perfect match. Bear in mind that the new recruits are just freshman, so there will be a couple years before they have a great impact. But just look to FSU and Jimbo Fisher, who has been building top five recruiting classes since he became head coach, and is now the national champion.
2/6/14: For those accustomed to seeing USC in the top five of recruiting classes, well, that probably will not happen this year. Early estimates have the Trojans with the 26th ranked class, 5th in the PAC 12. That should not be surprising considering the programs has struggled for the past couple of years and they had a coaching change. Though USC supporters should expect it to improve next year and beyond. The biggest get so far looks like Viane Talamalvao, who flipped from Alabama to USC. The big 6'3, 310 pounder is the No. 4 offensive guard prospect in the country, and 86th among all recruits.
1/30/14: The Steve Sarkisian hire is already having a positive effect at USC. Five star QB recruit Ricky Town has decommitted from Alabama and looks like he is heading to USC. Town developed a good relationship with Sarkisian during recruiting over the past few years, and apparently does not want to play for new Alabama OC Lane Kiffin (ironically, the former head coach at USC). Town is the number two ranked QB recruit in the nation, and ninth overall at any position. That is a good start to the Sarkisian Era, and one that bodes well for returning the program to prominence.
1/23/14: Many USC fans and boosters will scoff when the name Lane Kiffin is brought up. They remember his largely forgettable tenure as head coach which ended with a firing at the airport earlier this year. They may choose to forget that he was actually a pretty good offensive coordinator for the Trojans in the mid-aughts, when USC was a dominant team. Kiffin was hired last week by Alabama to serve as the offensive coordinator. Again, many people laugh or mock this hiring, but the fact remains that Kiffin is a good OC, though he has struggled as the head coach on three different occasions.
1/16/14: USC has lost another key starter to the NFL, as tight end Xavier Grimble decided to forego his remaining college eligibility to turn pro. His motivation is that he is healthy and wants to take a shot at the big time. He could be a very enticing prospect, considering he is 6'5 and 250 pounds - making him a difficult matchup for secondaries. His USC career seems misused though. He only caught a total of 69 passes and 5 touchdowns with the Spartans. If he can find an NFL team that will use him properly, then he could have a great career.
1/9/14: It was not really a surprise, but more of an eventuality. USC star wide receiver Marqise Lee has declared for the NFL draft and officially ends his collegiate career. Lee has been the best players the Trojans have had on offense for the past few years. In 2011, he had more than 1,100 yards and 11 touchdowns. In 2012, he had over 1,700 yards receiving and 14 touchdowns. This season, he racked up just under 800 yards and four touchdowns, but was injured and limited for most of the season. Lee won the Beiletneikoff Award in 2012, and should be considered among the top WR coming out in this year's draft.
1/2/14: Since the Trojans destroyed Fresno State in the Royal Purple Las Vegas Bowl, there have been a few ongoings at the school. USC apparently wants Clay Helton back in some capacity, though that is unknown. Center Marcus Martin announced that he will enter the NFL draft rather than play his senior season for the Trojans. Martin was injured during the season finale against UCLA and did not play in the bowl game, perhaps prompting him to get a paycheck rather than get someone else rich next season. The big question is if WR Marquis Lee will come back or not.
12/26/13: USC may not have been happy to be in the Royal Purple Las Vegas Bowl, but unlike their trip to the Sun Bowl last season, they did not pout and simply go through the motions. The No. 25 Trojans made a statement against the No. 20 Fresno State Bulldogs, demolishing them 45-20. QB Cody Kessler had his best game yet, throwing for a career high 344 yards and four touchdowns in the rout. Interim Interim head coach Clay Helton will return to USC next season as part of new head coach Steve Sarkesian's staff. He was offensive coordinator this season, but it is not known yet what his position will be next season.
12/19/13: After a week of intense speculation, information and misinformation, there appears to finally be resolution to Mack Brown's status as head coach of the University of Texas. Brown officially announced his resignation from the position last weekend. He will coach one more game - the Alamo Bowl against Oregon on December 30th in San Antonio, Texas. Now the speculation will run on his successor. Nick Saban just signed an extension with Alabama, so he is likely out of the running. Other names may include Jimbo Fisher (Florida State), Art Briles (Baylor), and Todd Graham (Arizona State).
12/12/13: Ed Ogeron took over as interim head coach of the Trojans over two months ago when Lane Kiffen was fired. Ogeron re-energized both the team and the fanbase, with many people (boosters and players) wanting him to get the job. USC Athletic Director Pat Hayden went another direction and hired Steve Sarkesian, the head coach of the Washington Huskies and a former assistant coach in the Pete Carroll days. Ogeron immediately resigned. USC has one game left. They will play in the Royal Purple Las Vegas Bowl against Fresno State on December 21, obviously in Las Vegas.
USC Trojans Football Tickets - History
USC has one of the most successful college football programs in the United States. The program began in 1888. USC defeated its first collegiate opponent, St. Vincent's College, 40-0 the following year. The Trojans joined the Pacific Coast Conference (PCC) in 1922. The PCC was the predecessor to the Pac-10 (to be later re-named the Pac-12). USC has claimed 11 national titles; although the most recent one the Trojans won in 2004 has since been vacated because of NCAA sanctions. Technically, the Trojans' last national title came the year prior when they finished 12-1 and beat Michigan, 28-14 in the Rose Bowl. The Trojans have also won 38 conference titles, including seven straight from 2002-2008.

City Studies: Unhappy Days for Milwaukee Entrepreneurs
Unhappy Days for Milwaukee Entrepreneurs
|This book is also available on Kindle
|View all of IJ's City Studies on Entrepreneurship
|Watch the press conference announcing the Milwaukee city study
Milwaukee, nicknamed the Cream City, is the commercial center of Wisconsin, the Dairy State. But layers of red tape are making it difficult for the cream of Milwaukee's entrepreneurs to rise to the top.
|"The sheer volume and complexity of regulations on small businesses in Milwaukee is head-spinning."
If you thought all it took to open a business in Milwaukee was a good idea, some seed capital and a location, think again. The city government imposes a complex maze of regulations that prevent many businesses from ever getting started. Even failed businesses cannot escape the regulatory grip of city officials. At any time—but especially in tough economic times—the government must get out of the way so that businesses can succeed.
This report chronicles the ways in which the city of Milwaukee and the state of Wisconsin make life difficult for small businesses and, as a result, threaten both entrepreneurship and the American Dream. Read More...

Test ID: EEEVP
Red Blood Cell (RBC) Enzyme Evaluation
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Identifying defects of red cell enzyme metabolism
Evaluating patients with hemolytic anemia
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
All enzyme defects, including erythrocyte enzyme errors, are inherited; some are sex-linked and located on the X chromosome. Some family members have no hematologic abnormalities, while others have a hemolytic anemia. For a number of RBC enzyme defects (eg, deficiencies of hexokinase, glucose phosphate isomerase, pyruvate kinase), the sole clinical manifestation is hemolytic anemia. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency is the most common metabolic error of the red cell and presents with acute hemolytic anemia in response to oxidant stress (eg, drugs, acute infections, fava bean ingestion).
This is a consultative evaluation looking at red cell enzyme defects as the cause for early red cell destruction.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
Definitive results and an interpretive report will be provided.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
A hematopathologist expert in these disorders evaluates the case, appropriate tests are performed, and an interpretive report is issued.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
No significant cautionary statements
Clinical Reference Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

Bikers say under-30 generation isn't interested, and can't afford many of the top motorcycles
MEREDITH — Motorcycle lovers at Bike Week 2014 come from all over the country and the world, are from many backgrounds and represent many fields of work.
But they can't be accurately described as people of all ages.
Bike Week riders are increasingly middle-aged or older, and are mostly professionals in their fields of work.
Very few bikers attending Bike Week are under 30. Most are over 40.
In a spot survey of bikers at Meredith Harley-Davidson Thursday, the youngest biker found was Chris Estep, 37, of Mount Vernon, Va.
Estep said he has been going to motorcycle events all over the county for the past few years, trying to learn what has the older generation so excited.
"I'm trying to go to as many as I can to catch up," Estep said.
Estep said younger riders are more interested in smaller sport bikes that tend to be much less expensive. A website described the bikes as "super fast, gorgeous, a real babe magnet." They are used in competitions and at tracks, and are built for speed, not for show. On top of all that,, the sport bikes make long-distance riding uncomfortable.
Other bikers acknowledged the lack of teenagers and 20-year-olds at Bike Week, and said financial considerations are the reason. The average motorcycle at Bike Week costs between $20,000-$30,000, attendees said.
"It's the economy," said Bob Burch, who said he is from upstate New York. "Kids can't afford the kind of bikes most of us are driving."
Tim Snow, a manager at Meredith Harley-Davidson, acknowledged the cost issue.
"The Harley-Davidson has evolved and (the riders) are older, yes," he said. "The bikes they tend to buy are the more expensive ones."
The motorcycle manufacturing industry has recognized the loss of younger street motorcycle buyers over past decades, and Harley-Davidson has responded with a less expensive street motorcycle aimed at younger people who might have cost concerns. Due out in 2015, the Street 750 will cost $6,000 to $8,000.
The product is also aimed at young female bikers, a growing segment. "Women are growing as a group," he said. "There's a lot more young women owning bikes."
Of course, young women are also a draw for younger Bike Week participants who line the roads of Weirs Beach — often while drinking — urging young women riding by to bare their chests, an activity police try to curtail but which has given Bike Week a bad reputation, bikers said.
"The kids today are scared to do what we're doing, they probably don't have the money," said Rian Chace, a longtime Bike Week participant from Plainville, Mass.

Gallery: Tesla Unveils Roadster 2.5 — a New Body and a Sexier Look
In our opinion, The Tesla Roadster was already the sexiest car on the road — and now the first all-electric sports car to hit the market has gotten a stylish upgrade with the release of the Roadster 2.5! The Tesla Roadster can travel up to 245 miles per charge on its lithium-ion battery and goes from 0 to 60 in 3.7 seconds. Previously the Roadster was all curves, with a body that rolled like an ocean wave. Now the Roadster 2.5 has hit the streets and it looks like the folks over at Tesla decided to give it a little more edge. Might we say that adding a little fierceness has done the body well.
In addition to updating the body of the car, Tesla has made the interior of the Roadster 2.5 a little more comfortable. The new seats are, "built around the driver," and promise a quieter ride with the integration of new sound reduction material in the cabin. They've also enhanced the Roadster's power control hardware to create a better driving experience in all climates. Electric vehicles are notoriously finicky with extreme weather conditions, and the new Roadster promises to handle temperature changes with ease.
Though the nuts and bolts of the car are the same great all-electric driving machine, Tesla is probably hoping the sexy new exterior will help push even more sales in the coming years. They've updated the front fascia and added diffusing vents, put a diffuser in the back, included forged wheels, and added more support in the interior seats. Tesla promises that the development of their new Model S is their main focus but wants to add, "we still care a great deal about improving the Tesla Roadster."

Notes: Terrapin was announced as the "restrained version" and Fish as the "Master of Restraint." In response, Fish sang only one out of every few words to the song. Trey also clarified during the show that Colonel Forbin is not to be mistaken for Colonel (Bruce) Hampton. Bowie was preceded by a Funk #49 tease. The Bowie intro included HYHU teases, four Charlie Chan signals and Popeye, Simpsons, Oom Pa Pa, and Random Laugh signals. The band responded to the Popeye signal by singing a random note, which is the Random Note signal's "secret language." Sweet Adeline was performed without microphones.

This show was part of the "1991 Fall Tour."
However, worth the price of admission (or at least the download time from the spreadsheet) is the "restrained" version of Terrapin. Fish does almost a singing version of the old bit of the shorting-out mic. It's very amusing to listen to the lyrics as sung, though it's actually hard for your brain not to fill in the missing words. The restraint carries over into the beginning of the vacuum solo section, both with Fish's style and the backing trio's quasi-reggae funk groove. By the end of the solo, Fish is hitting it pretty hard, though; the restraining forces no longer a match for the power of the suck. It would have been impressive to see him carry the restraint back to the last verse, but one can hardly be blamed at that point.

It's easy to separate a product from its production process. What can we do to change that?
This came to mind with the question of factory farming: www.huffingtonpost.com/anjali-sareen/factory-farming_b_2904891.html
But further applies to our neglect to consider the ripple effects of our actions on, say, labour abuse in outsourcing, or the destruction of the air we breathe.
Branding has a significant role here, showing us the glamourized product and concealing everything about its production. We see a Prius in a cute pristine environment, so no one asks about the car's embodied energy or how the battery material was mined and produced. And even with advertising aside, you cannot see a child's sweat on your t-shirt, and steak looks nothing like a cow.
This makes us take our commodities at face value -- we think the cost is limited to the dollar sign on the price tag. In the interest of improving our farm health and humane conduct, worker treatment, environmental stability, and so forth, how can we remedy these disjunctures?
To start, I think ecological footprint stickers and taxes could do a lot, but can we find a way to learn to see the dominoes without our governments regulating our ability to?
Mar 21 2013: it's almost impossible to know how a finished product was manufactured, but there are a few questions that we ask ourselves to realize that something may be wrong.
for instance, how can a pair of jeans cost under $10? or, what does it mean when you see on the label "assembled in the USA" or "processed in Canada"?
also, we should refrain from dealing with companies that are not transparent, like Apple and its partner Foxconn. on the other hand, are we ready to pay more for other similar products?
Anton Holzer
Mar 21 2013: Nurturing the feeling of doubt and curiosity in people might be a small part in the solution for your problem.
- +1
Excellent question, great potential and an emerging problem of our time.Mar 21 2013: More on this (part of some research I'm doing for a paper, so I have agriculture on the brain): Basically every one pound of beef we eat (a few hamburgers) costs 2.5k gallons of water (100x as much as tomatoes or wheat, or enough for 1 person to drink for 8 years), 10 pounds of feed, up to .15 grams of antibiotics (this number is sketchy, but ultimately 80% of our antibio use is in daily-pumped livestock), and 8x as much fossil fuel energy as a pound of vegetables, and livestock cause 10x as much water pollution as humans otherwise, and the typical meat-eater requires nearly 20x as much land as a vegan (see the references of earthsave.org/pdf/ofof2006.pdf for more).
Don't worry I'm not preaching, note that I left the typical moralizing animal-rights ethics arguments aside -- this is about how easily we disjoin a product from its process. Our meat consumption is responsible for a substantial part of the world's dehydration and starvation (not to mention the rippling ailments and crimes that come with that poverty), as well as the rise of superbugs, polluted water, and rapid climate change (and all of those dominoes!). And all when vegetable consumption is more energy efficient within the body of the person eating too. BUT because we do not experience these "side effects" immediately/directly, we think instead of the instant gratification of a cheap steak that is super easy to buy right in front of us at the market. So is information enough? Case in point: did that information make you decide to change your meat consumption habits? If not (which I am willing to bet), why is information not enough? What can we do to make me less acquiescent about this MacBook I'm typing on?Mar 21 2013: So perhaps we could regulate transparency, like we have done with ingredient labels. Maybe we can't yet work out a complete footprint and history, but we can determine a lot more than the nothing-at-all that consumers currently get. I really hope a system of global standards (ie a limited global government based on transparency and human rights) is on the way.Mar 21 2013: Kelly, a product brand may play a role for choosing certain products, but cost/affordability is an important criterion for the majority. Factory farming/production has been using affordability to it's advantage.
We can use the same principles that we use during food consumption ex: increasing awareness, implications on health,environment,future generations.
However, it is a challenge to make an individual feel/react the same way towards our environment versus personal factors like health.Mar 21 2013: Thinking through the carbon foot print of a new product is something responsible engineers should do as part of life cycle engineering. However, a company's drive for short-term profits in competitive markets often switches the focus from most environmentally responsible to most profitable. Understanding the industrial pedigree of products and processes is a complex undertaking and beyond the capability of most consumers. This calls for corporate responsibility and responsible engineering.
That sounds like a very obvious thing to do, but the reality is more involved. Most engineers I know would always select the green alternative if all other things were equal. Problem is they are not. When the decision comes down to making the right and ethical decision or loss or corporate profit, loss of market competitiveness, laying off people, or closing businesses, the ethical responsibilities become less influential.
If the competitive playing field is level, then perhaps government regulation authority can help influence the competitiveness of companies making good environmental choices be rewarding them with tax incentives and fining companies in violation of environmental policies. However, the playing field between cities, states, and countries is not level.
The lack of a competitive playing field also applies to political situations such as worker rights, human rights, definitions of environmental responsibility, and ethically responsible. Once again these boundaries are open to interpretation about what is right as defined by political and geographic boundaries.
I think humanity as a whole is moving towards a more homogeneous definition of these boundaries, but it is human nature to have disagreements about such things. Short of a global government and global policies, equitably and uniformly enforced, and a harmonious and homogeneous population, I do not see this happening for a log while.

CHICAGO—"We could lose."
That's David Axelrod, President Obama's chief reelection strategist, injecting an obligatory note of caution into what is in every other way a "there's-no-way-we-can-lose" assessment of the campaign. From top to bottom, Obama's team keeps this self-effacing qualifier around mostly for amusement, like a yo-yo, a balsa-wood airplane, or a paper-clip necklace.
Every campaign, of course, believes it's going to win. Obama's team, however, conveys such a visceral sense of self-confidence that even protestations to the contrary take on air of comically profane absurdity.
"I don't want you to leave here thinking I've got my feet up on my f------ desk and I'm sanguine," Axelrod says after a 51-minute interview in which he surveys the landscape and finds nothing but roses for Obama and thorns for GOP nominee Mitt Romney. "I'm not! I treat this as a struggle to the end, and we're going to fight that way."
There is no end of fight in the Obama campaign. Pugilism has displaced post-partisanship. The president's aides fastidiously remind every reporter who asks about the brass-knuckle campaign conducted so far that it spent $25 million on "positive" ads in May. Losing track of their own talking points, senior advisers then offer a surgical assessment of the political vivisection they performed on Romney on issues ranging from unreleased tax returns and Bain Capital to outsourcing and a Swiss bank account, wielding TV ads and attack lines in June, July, and August.
"They didn't give people anything to grab on to, and they allowed us to define him before he could define himself," Axelrod says of Romney. "And now they are playing catch-up. And now they are running bio ads. The summer is when candidates and races get defined. That's why we made a strategic decision that it was better to muscle up in the summer. I can't think of a presidential race determined by paid media after Labor Day."
That's Axelrod's understated way of saying—feet-up-on-the-desk protestations notwithstanding—that he thinks the election is already over. In fact, campaign officials purposely approach the race as closer than they truly think it is. For more than two months, the campaign has been subtracting 2 points from internal polls that consistently show Obama ahead nationally and state by state.
The sources of Team Obama's bristling reelection conceit certainty can be found in the usual places and within shopworn metaphors (demographics, ground game, approval ratings, likability). But the campaign also enfolds unique cultural and political touchstones: Richard Pryor by way of Chico Marx. Ronald Reagan. John Kerry. And Paul Ryan.
Obama's team scoffs at comparisons to the 1980 campaign between embattled Democratic President Carter, dogged by gloomy economic news in every direction and unabashedly pro-free-market Gov. Reagan. Many of this year's differences from that picture do not augur well for Romney. Obama did not face a party-splitting primary. Carter did—as well as an independent alternative to Reagan. Carter had to contend with high unemployment, high interest rates, and high inflation. Obama confronts only one of those. Carter trailed Reagan starting in June and led by a narrow margin only sporadically down the stretch. Also, Obama's 2012 approval numbers are far better than Carter's were and have been higher ever since March. By this stage of the 1980 campaign, Carter's approval rating had fallen to
32 percent (with a 5-point bounce to 37 percent in September).
"Those guys over there love to talk about 1980, which I think is delusional for a whole range of reasons," Axelrod said. "Obama is not Carter, and Romney is not Reagan."
The Obama campaign, looking at the demographic shifts since then, has concluded that if the 1980 turnout were repeated this year, Carter would have fared better and might even have eked out a razor-thin victory (especially since he wouldn't have conceded to Reagan at 9:01 p.m. Eastern time and to the nation at 10:30). "The demographic changes in the country over the past 30 years have been pretty dramatic," Axelrod said. "That's certainly a factor."
A few choice stats that Team Obama likes to ponder: The white share of the population has declined from 79.6 percent to 72.4 percent in the past 32 years. The Hispanic share has grown from 6.4 percent to 16.3 percent. The black population has increased from 11.7 percent to 13.6 percent. In recent surveys, Obama has an approval rating in the high 80s among blacks and high 50s among Hispanics (he averages 37 percent among whites). More important, the share of married couples has fallen from 65 percent in 1980 to 51 percent in 2012, and among single voters Obama's approval rating is in the mid-50s. Among all women in the CNN/ORC and NBC/Wall Street Journal surveys in early August, he ran 9 and 15 points ahead of Romney, respectively. In the NBC/WSJ poll, Obama led 63 percent to 32 percent among college-educated women. The furor over Rep. Todd Akin's remarks about "legitimate rape" this month would seem only to further this advantage.
One last point: Obama's ground game has been registering new voters since December; in swing states such as Colorado, Florida, Nevada, and New Mexico, the number of eligible but unregistered Hispanic voters exceeds Obama's 2008 winning margins in each state (that means there's plenty of pad if Obama's team registers new Hispanic voters—even if those Latinos register as independents).
Many in Obama's inner circle also believe that Obama is the more likable, Reagan-like figure who can remake his party and the nation's policies. They see Romney as far more like Carter, who never wore well with his party, was prone to awkwardness, and won the nomination by default. They also doubt any comparison to the economic doldrums of then and now and any possibility of a late-breaking shift of Democratic and undecided voters to Romney (as happened with Reagan).
"They have this fantasy that the debates will come and the dam will break like it did in 1980," Axelrod said. "I think they are delusional."
Obama's senior advisers see the election as much more like 2004 than 1980—except they are the Bush-Cheney team (right down to the daily precinct-by-precinct spreadsheet reports from swing states on voter contacts and persuasion). They have a likable president seeking reelection in troubled times who possesses definite and possibly debilitating political weaknesses (like Bush). They see a challenger who has a unified party but a hard time connecting with the growing ranks of independent voters. They see a figure of wealth who comes off as an out-of-touch elitist and who is guarded about key aspects of his life story (like Kerry).
Stephanie Cutter, Obama's deputy campaign manager, even said that there are moments, fleeting though they may be, where she does "empathize" with Romney's team. But not very often. Cutter is, after all, the operative who suggested that Romney might have committed a felony on a Securities and Exchange Commission filing for Bain Capital and who says she had no objection to Vice President Joe Biden telling an audience in Danville, Va., (where civil-rights protesters once met with arrests and violence) that Romney's bid to repeal new Wall Street regulations would "put y'all back in chains." Even Team Obama's pity is pitiless.
It's the Richard Pryor/Chico Marx meme, though, that adds texture to Chicago's otherwise drone-like certitude. It's all about lying eyes and how much Obama's advisers are counting on them. This came up in response to Romney's attempts to portray Obama as either corrupt (the $535 million taxpayer investment in the now-bankrupt solar-energy firm Solyndra), or out of touch (his remarks that the private sector is "doing fine" and that small businesses "didn't build" all that made them successful).
"It's like that line from that Richard Pryor movie," Axelrod says. " 'Who are you going to believe? Me or your lying eyes? People trust their lying eyes. They're not going to believe the [Romney] ads. They know who [Obama] is. You try to runs ads suggesting that he's corrupt; they know he's not corrupt. You try to run ads saying he doesn't care about the state of the economy; it didn't move anything. You can't tell people what they're not willing to believe and expect it to work. You're not going to tell them what their lying eyes tell them." (Pryor fashioned the "lying eyes" line in his 1982 movie Live on the Sunset Strip. He lifted it from a bit by Chico Marx as the character Chicolini in the 1933 movie Duck Soup, and then seasoned it with a vulgarism.) It's also worth noting that Obama's advisers deny the allegation of corruption. That's secondary, though, to how they evaluate the political implications—hence the oddly self-condemning nature of the "lying eyes" comparison.
All of Chicago shuddered when Obama made his remarks about small businesses and the role government plays in their success, knowing that Romney's team would jump on it as an example of Obama's intellectual hostility to individual initiative. Romney built events in swing states around the comment and made it a symbolic theme at the GOP convention in Tampa. The gaffe created genuine nervousness among Democrats. Obama cut a TV spot at the White House the Sunday after the massacre in Aurora, Colo., describing the election's big choice. Axelrod described it as an antibiotic ad meant to stave off infection. Cutter called it a way to plug a hole in the dike before water started to seep through. No Obama ad has tested better with campaign focus groups.
"When we show that direct-to-camera spot to people, they say, 'I think he's pretty sincere,' " Axelrod said. "This is what makes [the Romney campaign's] task so hard. They keep trying different ways to crack into the safe."
As for Ryan, every single top Obama adviser sees a comparison to Sarah Palin. Not in terms of depth of knowledge, political experience, policy innovation, or powers of persuasion—they rate Ryan ahead of Palin in all these categories. The pivotal similarity they talk about is that Ryan, like Palin, reverses the rival campaign's own narrative. Sen. John McCain ran against Obama based on leadership, heroism, Senate experience, defense credentials, and sacrifice for one's nation. Palin undercut the leadership and experience arguments and injected partisan passion. Her selection didn't sink McCain's campaign (the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the ensuing financial meltdown did that), but Palin diverted the campaign from its own path.
Top Obama advisers believe that the same dynamic has now happened with Romney's pick of Ryan. Until Ryan, Romney's overarching theme, at least from Chicago's point of view, was to use the economy against Obama in a sweeping indictment of his presidency. A referendum with a capital "R." Obama hated this terrain and wanted to disqualify Romney as an unacceptable alternative (Bain, Swiss bank account, Cayman Island business, tax returns) and to shift the election to a choice about the future—Obama's path forward versus Romney's retooling of Bush's policies.
"Their theory is very simple: The economy sucks; [voters will] fire the president," Axelrod says. "They've put all of their chips on that one number. Maybe their number will come in. But there's a lot more dimensionality to it. There's a larger [economic] crisis that's been going for a longer period of time that goes to the viability of the middle class."
Axelrod took careful note of Romney's mid-August attempt to reframe his economic proposals to make them more meaningful to middle-class voters by talking about take-home pay and debt-per-child rather than big, eye-glazing numbers or a 59-point economic plan. "They are now trying to get with it," Axelrod says. "He is just a lousy exponent of that theory. He's not someone you look at and hear, and say, 'There's a guy who is going to fight for the middle class.' So they are playing on our side of the field on that argument."
Other top advisers see the Ryan pick as spotlighting the future of Medicare, Medicaid, and federal spending on education, student loans, environmental protection, farm programs, and food safety. All would face spending cuts under the Ryan budget. "This crystallizes the argument we have been trying to make for months," says Jim Messina, Obama's campaign manager. "Ryan on the ticket helps us with three subgroups of voters—seniors, women, and young voters. We thought they wanted a referendum. Now they've given us a choice. We feel very good about how that choice will come out."
Chicago's transcendent sense of invulnerability is so grandiose that it finds odd common cause with one of the moments of George W. Bush's presidency that liberals reviled most. A simple question, posed then and now, evokes the same answer: What mistakes have you made?
"You know, it's funny," Axelrod said. "The whole Bush question. What mistakes have you made? And we all made fun of him. But when you're in it, it's not that easy to say what mistakes you've made. I think we've run a pretty good campaign. We've had a few stumbles along the road, but you're going to have that." Axelrod says that Obama knows he stepped into it by saying the private sector is doing "fine" and "you didn't build that." "He would like those back. But I would take that any day and have my guy out there, because we gain so much more."
Every top adviser to Obama knows that the race will be close. They concede that some states won in 2008, like Indiana, will likely be lost but the damage won't be enough, they believe, to jeopardize their chances of reaching 270 electoral votes. They know Romney's team has assembled eight possible scenarios to win the White House. Only one doesn't include Florida's 29 electoral votes (it relies on Michigan's 16, Pennsylvania's 20, and Wisconsin's 10). With Ryan on the ticket, Team Obama now believes that Florida is in play and that the Democrats' narrow advantage there will grow. It doesn't see Ryan helping Romney with women or Latino voters, removing a potential cause of demographic anxiety.
In Chicago, talk of unexpected events toppling Obama's path to reelection are largely cursory. This nonchalance, by the way, is said to perturb the Windy City's mayor, and former Obama chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, who frequently warns that the president's popularity is "defying gravity" and that the campaign must ward against its tendency toward all-knowing arrogance.
As to gravity, Obama's team has begun preemptively making things look worse in its own polling. For at least two months, the campaign has detected a ripple in the data caused by a spike in voters identifying themselves as Democrats. The numbers that come back on self-identified Democrats don't match, statistically, voter-registration rolls or historical patterns. This anomaly cropped up in public polls in August. Romney aides have taken careful note and don't know what to make of it. They take comfort that Democratic voter registration from 2008 is down 800,000 while GOP registration is down less than a tenth of that. Independent registration in the same period is up 207,000. But what if independents are choosing to call themselves Democrats? What if Republicans are? What if people are lying? Obama's analysts have decided to subtract at least 2 points from Obama's support in every internal poll.
"We keep weighting our polls down," Axelrod says. "This has been true of our national polling and state-by-state polling. We're watching it. We don't know what it means. We're not willing to say this means there's been some kind of conversion. But it certainly doesn't mean there is a Republican wave. It's a real subject for investigation. There's no doubt there's a pattern out there. At the very least, it kind of militates against their theory that there's a big wave coming and the wave is going to move in their direction. There is nothing in the data that would suggest that."
If politics is a game and a presidential campaign the biggest one of all, confidence counts. It's not that Obama's team doesn't second-guess itself or constantly fret over every possible tremor, real or imagined. It does. But the Chicago headquarters is not only a fortress of security (three layers of it and the requirement that "tout le monde," as Tom Wolfe would say—the 350-plus paid staffers; the legions of summer interns; and even senior White House adviser David Plouffe—must leave a driver's license at the front desk). It's also a fortress of surety.
"The worst thing you can do in politics is assume too much," Axelrod says laconically. "We could win, or we could lose. I think we're going to win."
In Chicago, that's not an assumption.

...Wilson looks like he can be a gamer. That said, man, they run a really vanilla offense. I got to see maybe 25-40% of the snaps and didn't see him call one audible. You can't convince me that against a defense like the 49ers you're not going to see something that needs to change before the snap.
I'll give him a flyer since he's a rookie, but where is the command of the offense? Are they just going to try to rely on his scrambling ability? What happens when teams contain it (like tonight)? I think it really puts into perspective what Tannehill is doing in Miami.

What he said. Try mcnichols.com.
Never made one from SS..... But I have made several from Ti
I would not have fun doing it in SS using a 140A GMAW... not that it can't be done but you will nat have a lot of control and at some point you will pull the trigger for a second too long ans will end up with a pile of metal on the table, and a hole in your basket.

Reggie: Expanded metal or mesh won't work for this-it is basically a custom
form for frying food. Parts of it will be constructed out of perforated sheet though.
mikeswelding: I surely will check out mcnichols.com-I can always use a good souce for supplies!
Fatfab: That's what I was afraid of-any suggestions on settings?
Thanks again to everyone,

Rush Into Quarterfinals at U20 World Cup
Lindsey Horan and Janine Beckie, two players with ties to the Colorado Rush, have advanced to the quarterfinal round at the U20 Women's World Cup being held in Canada.
Horan and the United States have won back-to-back games over Brazil and China after a first game defeat to Germany. Horan has been the key figure in the Americans attack scoring three of the four US goals and assisting on the 4th. The US will take on Korea DPR in the quarterfinal game on Saturday in Toronto. Korea, by way of goal differential, finished at the top of Group A with wins over Finland and Ghana and a loss to Canada.
Janine Beckie, a member of the 2014 Colorado Rush W-League team this past summer, leads the Canadians with 2 goals scored in their three games including the game winner in the 1-0 win over Korea DPR to secure a quarterfinal birth for the Canadians. Canada has beaten Finland and Korea DPR and lost their opening game to Ghana. They will take on the Germans on Saturday in Edmonton.
A third Rush player, Emily Alvarado from Texas Rush, had been on the Mexico team roster but team Mexico failed to advance out of group so their tournament is over.
Good luck to Lindsey and Janine in the quarterfinals!
