I've got a job to do. I certainly don't go out there managing to try to keep my job," [Joe Torre] said, calm and collected as usual. "I can't concern myself with what might happen. MYTISCHI, Russia -- Dwayne Roloson was introduced by the public address announcer as "Albert" and Jamal Mayers couldn't keep the alternate captain's 'A' on his jersey. STEPHEN JACKSON, smilingly dismissive of TNT's Charles Barkley after Barkley compared the Golden State Warriors swingman to volatile Terrell Owens, told Tim Kawakami of the San Jose Mercury News, "Oh, I don't listen to Charles. I don't get in conflicts with people that don't have championship rings. I've got one (with the San Antonio Spurs, 2003)."
I don't think it's a big deal," he said. "Obviously, we're still hopeful. But nothing has been determined," Astros general manager Tim Purpura said. "My arm felt great," [Eric Gagne] told the San Jose Mercury News. "I feel confident. I'll be ready for Thursday. You get mentally ready and bounce back in the big leagues."
Gannett executives visited Chicago last week and listened to presentations on Tribune Co.'s financial situation, the Chicago Tribune reported Saturday, citing two unidentified sources. The Wall Street Journal reported on the visit by Gannett executives on Monday, citing unidentified sources familiar with the matter, and also said Tribune had had informal discussions with MediaNews Group Inc., owner of the San Jose Mercury News, The Denver Post and The Detroit News, about certain Tribune assets, including the Hartford Courant.
Recent research on Arctic contaminants suggests the rapid increase in mercury concentrations in whales, seals and bears has more to do with how those animals are feeding in an Arctic that's rapidly losing its summer ice. We don't want to let the industrial polluters off the hook, but we now think climate change is the culprit," says [Gary Stern], the chief scientist aboard the Canadian Coast Guard research vessel Amundsen, an icebreaker overwintering in Arctic waters south of Banks Island in the Northwest Territories. "It looks like a mercury mystery, that's for sure," says Stern. "But those are not mutually exclusive conditions.

Over the years, the Mercury did very well and garnered sales that would have otherwise went to other marques, proving Ford needed Mercury as a stepping-stone to bring Ford owners up the sales ladder. A jump from a Ford to a Lincoln would be unheard-of, yet the progression of ownership from a Ford to a Mercury then Lincoln was the same as a Chevrolet owner going to a Buick then a Cadillac. Fast forward to 1964 and it's Mercury's 25th anniversary. While the hoopla was rather subdued and limited mostly to advertising pitches, the '64 Mercury did bear the XXV designation on the horn button. It also sported a new grill bearing a Lincoln influence, and the rear taillamps were closer to the '59 Continental than the round units found on the '64 Ford. For Red Henry of Portage la Prairie, a 1994 ...

Future plans for the Mercury wagon include having [John Scheels] stitch up and install a full new interior and the installation of factory power steering and power brakes. Nicknamed the "Southern Belle" the Mercury resides in Swaffer's garage right next to his "Northern Beauty" Pontiac. Swaffer says, "It's really a great car and I have to thank [Peter] for remembering our conversation years earlier and selling it too me. For Don Swaffer of Winnipeg Beach, Manitoba the Mercury wagon is a prized acquisition. A member of the Khartum Shriner's Vintage Car Unit, he also owns a rare Canadian-built 1954 Pontiac Laurentian hardtop, lovingly called "Northern Beauty". Finding the Mercury was a little bit of luck and a little of being in the right place at the right time. When fellow Shriner P...

Old friends are back in your life again because of Mercury retrograde. Since Mercury has already been slowing down, no doubt you've encountered old faces already. It's nice to have history with others. This is also an opportunity to catch up on old news, which might or might not interest you. (But gossip could be juicy!) Today Mercury goes retrograde, and this takes place at the very top of your chart. It's almost certain that you'll run into bosses, parents, teachers and authority figures that you haven't seen for a while. This could also bring an opportunity for you to re-apply at a job that didn't work out the first time. Silly errors and confused communications plus cancelled appointments and delays at work will be frustrating this month. Some of you will also run into old flames an...
The Mercury brand was introduced in 1939 to fill Ford Motor's price gap between Lincoln and Ford, enabling the automaker to better compete with General Motors. It was little more than a "senior" Ford until 1949, when it received a body shell that it shared with smaller Lincolns. Through the 1950s, Mercury pretty much retained its own identity and got more ornate as the decade progressed. When the top-of-the-Mercury-line 1957 Turnpike Cruiser arrived (also sold as the Monarch in Canada), it was clearly inspired by the XM show car. While the flip-up roof panels and through-the-fender exhausts were gone, the sculpted rear fenders and slanted tail lights survived, although they were not quite as radical. The flow-through rear window remained. The 1957 Cruiser had a 290-horsepower, 368-cubic...
