“Hot” Rod Fuller Races to Semifinal Finish at the StripLAS VEGAS -- “Hot” Rod Fuller used his driving prowess to race his Valvoline Top Fuel dragster to a semifinal finish Sunday afternoon at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway at the sixth annual ACDelco Las Vegas Nationals. It was his fourth semifinal finish of the season.After qualifying his David Powers-owned Valvoline Top Fuel dragster in the No. 10 position with a 4.571-second elapsed time, the local fan favorite was pitted against No. 7 qualifier Melanie Troxel in the opening round of eliminations. The Las Vegas racer then edged 2003 NHRA Rookie of the Year Brandon Bernstein in a close race before falling to 2006 Rookie of the Year front-runner J.R. Todd in the semifinals.Fuller used his trademark quick reactions to get the early lead while racing to the wire-to-wire victory over the popular second generation racer and 2006 Sportswoman of the Year. Fuller’s Lee Beard-tuned rail powered to a performance of 4.569 sec

If you've ever felt like your career was heading for a train wreck and didn't know where to turn, look no further than your own mirror. While you will find there are many people in the industry who will help you once you've succeeded, it's a far cry sometimes for anyone to help you when you are climbing up a ladder that sways in the wind and each rung seems like it's going down instead of up. The biggest inspiration you can have to avoid a career collision is to get up, look yourself in eye in your mirror and remember the classic children's book, "I Think I can, I think I can, I know I can, I know I can." From "The Little Train That Could." Say to yourself when you are looking in that mirror that You Can do it! You will do! And then get out of your comfort zone and DO it! Then start looking on the Internet for local musicians meetings to begin your networking today. Build your list of potential supporters one hand shake at a time.

Alkohol is the title of the first Goran Bregovic album to be released in North America. Goran Bregovic is one of the most internationally renowned modern composers of the Balkans. His music marries the sounds of a gypsy brass band with traditional Balkan polyphonies, those of an electric guitar and traditional percussion with a curious rock accent....creating music that our soul recognizes instinctively and the body greets with an irresistible urge to dance." Alkohol was recorded live in Guca in the summer of 2007," says Goran Bregovic about his new CD. "Guca is a small town in Serbia of maybe 20,000 inhabitants that holds an annual, world renowned, contest of brass bands in August. The town swells to 150,000 people who, under tents, drink, eat grilled meat and sour-kraut the Serbian way and drink and listen to the music and drink again, for three days... which explains the title. " Alkohol is divided in two chapters: the first, Sljivovica, is named after our national drink, plum brandy. These s
