          From the supplier: The Taxpayer Bill of Rights 2 enacted in July of 1996 includes provisions favoring taxpayers who request abatement of penalties for failure to timely deposit payroll taxes. The bill has expanded the IRS's authority to abate interest where delay is caused by its unreasonable errors when performing ministerial or managerial acts. The IRS also has expanded authority to abate penalties for failure to deposit employment taxes under specified circumstances. Tax Court review of IRS abatement refusals is also expanded.

                                        SPORTS, POLITICS, AND SEX COLLIDE IN HUNTER S. THOMPSON'S WILDLY POPULAR ESPN.COM COLUMNS, PROVING THAT THE GOOD DOCTOR IS IN -- AND AS INSIGHTFUL AND INCENDIARY AS EVER.

                                        For decades, Hunter S. Thompson has galvanized American journalism with his acerbic wit, radical ideas, and gonzo tactics. He continues his reign as "The Unabomber of contemporary letters" (Time) with Hey Rube. Fear, greed, and action abound in this hilarious, thought-provoking compilation as Thompson doles out searing indictments and uproarious rants while providing brilliant commentary on politics, sex, and sports -- at times all in the same column.

                                        Filled with critics' favorites, as well as never before published columns, Hey Rube follows Thompson through the beginning of the new century, revealing his queasiness over the 2000 election ("rigged and fixed from the start"); his take on professional sports (to improve Major League Baseball "eliminate the pitcher"); and his myriad controversial opinions and brutally honest observations on issues plaguing America -- including the Bush administration and the inequities within the American judicial system.

                                        Hey Rube gives us a look at the gonzo journalist in his most organic form -- unbridled, astute, and irreverent.

                                        This book (2004) and "Kingdom of Fear" (2003) appear to be the last of HST's books. While "Hey Rube" contains lengthy discussions of gambling on professional football and basketball (including "March Madness"), "Kingdom of Fear" is more far-ranging, containing everything from Thompson's reminiscences of his youth to his (highly negative) thoughts on George W. Bush.

                                        The quality of the writing of the recent pieces in both books is not quite up to that of his best from the past, but is still infinitely better than the mindless slop produced by other contemporary "writers." The man was an artist.

                                        As always, one of the disturbing things about Thompson is his ability to assess politics correctly in real time. Reading back, you think "Why didn't people take this man seriously at the time?"

                                        "Indeed," as Doc would say.

                                        I'm heartbroken. I admit it. I'm not a year around sports nut. I don't watch games all the time. I don't even get ESPN. And I've never allowed myself to get sucked into the uber-geeky world of fantasy leagues. But the Bears are special for me. And if you let yourself care enough, you'll get hurt. It's unavoidable. You can't experience the thrills without being vulnerable to the pain. Especially the way it happened. With the Bears jumping to a lead within the first 14 seconds, and having a nice action-packed first quarter, I couldn't help but believe. But the Colts managed to dominate. And what hurts the most, what's got me down, is that the Colts won by out Bearing the Bears. They played good hard-nosed defense and then wore down the Bears defense with a relentless running attack. Oh well. I still think Peyton's a bit of a goober but the Indiana coach seems to be a real class act, so I'll try and be happy for them. And I know it's just a game. There are bigger crises in the world. There are bigger crises in my life for that matter. Still, it hurts. This goes down in my top five for losses that hurt, along with the Bears of the late 80's being eliminated in the playoffs by the Redskins and then the Niners, and maybe along with some of those Nebraska victories over Colorado. Particularly those real close ones in that painful, smarmy Neuheisal era.

                                        So when the soul is truly in pain, where else would I go for comfort but Hunter S? I didn't even know about this book until recently. I didn't know he was writing a regular column for ESPN's web site. But he was and these columns are among the last writings we'll have for him. And what better a topic for Mr. Thomson than gambling? Hunter was at his best when writing about those little vices, those things that can be wonderful, even enlightening, in the right doses, but much more entertaining to read about when they are pushed to and beyond the limits of self-destruction. Great stuff.

                                        By the chance of timing, almost a twisted kind of serendipity, this collection contains a generous allotment of Mr. Thomson's political writings as well. The collection spans a period of time containing the Presidential coup in which Bush stole the election from Al Gore and then 9-11 and its aftermath as well. There is an essay written by Thomson dated September 11th, 2001, written that evening following the attack, with classic Thomson vitriol, filled with his trademark fear and loathing, as well as some paranoia that history reveals to be more prescient than delusional, warning that the power that be would use the tragedy of the terrorist attacks to justify further tragedy of an even grander scale. That may be near universal sentiment in hindsight but remember back to that time to realize how deranged and treacherous that would have sounded to the average citizen. Certainly to the chattering hens in the mainstream news media, who couldn't give the American public credit for anything more sophisticated than black and white thinking.

                                        A great voice is gone. I suspect he may have been trying to commit suicide by lifestyle for decades, but when that repeatedly failed, he finally had to take more direct action. And the Chicago Bears are not the world champions. Maybe I should admit that the NFC really is a weak division this year. Or maybe the Bears got what they deserve for playing the entire game with their safeties twenty yards back, trying to win by being the more conservative team. With that mentality, not even the point spread could help Bears benefactors. What would Hunter have said?

                                        1 out of 5 stars Thompson's Swan Song - Fans Decide for Yourself.......2006-12-08

                                        "Hey Rube" is Thompson's least interesting book. About 95% of it involves sports and gambling, mainly on football, and a lot of typical name dropping (Ed Bradley, Douglas Brinkley, Johnny Depp, ad nauseum). Jack Kerouac. The book is boring as all get-out, but hey, see for yourself. Thompson brought us many fine works, "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas", "The Rum Diary", "Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail," you name it. His meglomania knew no bounds; his persona was largely one of his own mythological making. It remains indelible fact that he was an important founder of the so-called "New Journalism" which surfaced in the mid-sixties, though in a recent conversation with Gay Talese, this other dignified writer refused to even mention his name in connection with the "New Journalism" when questioned at an appearance at Faulkner Books in New Orleans. If you like stupid football predictions and wreckless sports gambling as your two primary intersts, this is the book for you -- don't miss it. Otherwise, it is the last sad blatherings of a brain-dead paranoiac determined to follow in the footsteps of Hemingway, whose macho at an early age he emulated with a visit to Papa's gravesite in Ketchum, Idaho. Rest in peace, Hunter. Your great works far exceed this piece of worthless trash.

                                        4 out of 5 stars This was my first..........2006-04-11

                                        Hunter S. Thompson book. I loved every word of it, sports and politics alike, I just wish it would have had a bit more of an even balance between sports and politics. His thoughts make me feel okay about my own views - blended and difficult to define. I'm sure we would have disagreed on some things but agreed on many more.

                                        Since reading the book, I find myself wondering what he would have had to say about certain things: Boston winning the World Series, the new immigration laws, the second Bush presidency/what happened to Kerry, Johnny Damon leaving the Sox and the Dick Cheney hunting mishap!!! The list goes on....

                                        I feel as though I'm only now getting to know him. I look forward to reading more very soon...

                                        I loved "Fear and Loathing in America." And while I think there is some decent stuff in here, it is just too sports oriented. I mean the book is based on columns from ESPN, so don't be surprised. And I like sports as much as anyone. But the crazy energy of Thompson and blinding insights are diluted by information about betting against the spread. Still there is enough in here to like. He wrote this before and after 9/11/2001. Some of his earliest thoughts on the fascist tendencies of some of the early post-9/11 policies. A good, but not great read.

                                        I like the Baedeker's books because they are chock full of information about both large and small cities and towns. My husband and I are overseas with the military so anytime we go somewhere, we throw this book in the car and find tons of interesting places that are off the beaten (tourist) path.

                                                            Book Description

                                                            Most expectant and new parents understandably approach child-rearing responsibilities with a mixture of joy and "fear and trembling." Even the "seasoned" parent experiences moments of doubt and dismay…

                                                            You're putting away your son's clean laundry and there, beneath his sweat socks and undershirts, you find some cigarettes, a couple of dollars, and a small packet filled with white powder.

                                                            Your daughter comes home from school in tears, devastated by the cruel remarks of another child.

                                                            A close friend is diagnosed with AIDS, and you wonder how this will affect your family.

                                                            Your children always seem to be at each other's throats.

                                                            It's out there.

                                                            It's terrifying.

                                                            It's life.

                                                            Iverna Tompkins, the gifted communicator well-known for her inspirational and prophetic ministry, and Dr. Diane McIntosh, President and Director of The Grace Ministry Counseling Center, join together, and with candor, wit, and crystal clarity, present the biblical guidelines and practical solutions to one of life's most puzzling mysteries—your child.

                                                            Over the years, seventeen-year-old Gaia Moore has learned quite a few things about love. Namely, it usually goes hand-in-hand with betrayal. She loved her Uncle, and he, in turn, destroyed her family, and attempted to use her for his own financial gain. She loved her father, and he ended up abandoning her. She loved Sam, and he disappeared. Maybe the one thing Gaia needs to remember about love, is that it's useless. Which is why she's leaving.

                                                            She walks through Washington Square Park, and she's beating up dealers. She hops a subway, and she's being attacked by raunchy men looking to torment young girls. She goes for a walk in Manhattan, and she's being tailed. Gaia just can't take her life anymore. She wants to head to Anywhere, USA, where she can work as a waitress at a diner, and leave her sordid, muddled past behind. Which is why she's leaving New York City. It's time for a change of pace, where she can breathe fresh air, and be invisible for once. Unfortunately, she's without cash, and is incapable of leaving the city until she says goodbye to Ed. Ed has stood by her since the first day she appeared in his life, and she just knows that she can't simply leave without saying goodbye. Without letting him know that she's not abandoning him. The only problem is that saying goodbye to Ed proves harder than Gaia ever expected. For one, he's finally getting his life back on track, re-learning how to use his legs, and not having to be confined to a wheelchair since his experimental surgery. For two, there are unexplained feelings she has for Ed, that could be...love. Love that Ed returns wholeheartedly, but could get in the way of Gaia's plans. When she receives a cryptic message from Loki, however, depicting Sam in a very dangerous situation, Gaia realizes that she can't simply turn her back on the people she cares about most, and knows that it's up to her to save the people who are in danger because of her. Now, with assistance from a group of unlikely allies, Gaia must concoct a plan that will save her friends, and get her out of New York City in one piece, without arousing any suspicion. But some things are easier said than done.

                                                            It has been over a year since I have indulged in a FEARLESS novel; and now that I have completed LOVE, I am mentally kicking myself for having stayed away for so long. I have truly missed Gaia's over the top antics, and slightly narcissistic, down-trodden outlook on life. Her inability to trust people is not a surprise, given the hardships she has had to endure over the course of her lifetime; yet the fact that she is able to put certain things in the past indicate that she would love to be just...normal. Ed's role in LOVE is quite thrilling, especially for those who have followed the FEARLESS series from the beginning, as he finally musters up the courage to reveal a very important fact to Gaia that we've all been awaiting for quite some time. Yet the person who makes one of the biggest transformations within LOVE, is actually an individual who seemed the least likely, and that would be Heather Gannis. Heather has hidden behind a stone-faced facade for so long, but in LOVE, she has finally turned over a new leaf, and taken off the evil mask she has worn from her FEARLESS introduction. In fact, she actually comes off as being, dare I say it, nice. She is less self-absorbed, and more interested in helping others, which actually makes her more appealing as a character - for the first time. Francine Pascal has done a wonderful job of meshing these characters lives together, and adding an exciting dollop of action-packed fight scenes that will leave you on the edge of your seat. You can't help but fall in LOVE with this latest FEARLESS installment!

                                                            Gaia finds herself with no where left to turn and wants to leave New York, to fill out her dream of becoming a waitress somewhere where no one knows her past or cares. But she soon realizes that she can't leave with out saying goodbye to her best friend and the only person in the world she can trust, Ed Fargo. Loyal Ed though won't let Gaia leave with out a plan and puts his life in danger, giving her a place to stay and warm clothes. Soon Gaia realises that they, whoever they happen to be, know where she is and she isn't safe no matter what wonderful illusion Ed offers her. She still needs to find out what happened with Sam and what is going on with these new feelings about Ed. So with some unlikely help and a change of plans Gaia sets out to play the hero and possible martyr.
