Copyright © 1980 by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, Inc. 1211 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10036 234567890 IR 89876543210 PREFACE This publication is the twenty-first in a series produced by the Institute’s staff through use of the Institute’s National Automated Accounting Research System (NAARS). Earlier publications in the series are listed on the inside cover of this publication. The purpose of the series is to provide interested readers with examples of the application of technical pronouncements. It is believed that those who are confronted with problems in the application of pronouncements can benefit from seeing how others apply them in practice. It is the intention to publish periodically similar compilations of information of current inter­ est dealing with aspects of financial reporting. The examples presented were selected from over eight thousand annual reports stored in the NAARS computer data base. This compilation presents only a limited number of examples and is not intended to encom­ pass all aspects of the application of the pronouncements covered in this survey. Individuals with special application problems not illustrated in the survey may arrange for special computer searches of the NAARS data banks by contacting the Institute. The views expressed are solely those of the staff.

A joint venture is commonly described as an entity that is owned, operated, and jointly controlled by a small group as a separate and specific business project organized for the mutual benefit of the ownership group. Each venturer commonly participates in overall management regardless of the percentage of ownership, and significant decisions commonly require the consent of each of the venturers so that no individual venturer has unilateral control. The joint venture may be organized as a corporation, a partnership with or without limited partners, or an undi­ vided interest. Joint ventures are a useful means of entering foreign markets, especially in some developing countries, often in partnership with a foreign national corporation or the host government

    west coast music Midnight Special Please find attached the Midnight Special song list for your review. SPECIAL DANCES for Weddings: Please note that we will need your special dance requests, (I.E. First Dance, Father/Daughter Dance, Mother/Son Dance etc) FOUR WEEKS in advance prior to your event so that we can confirm that the band will be able to perform the song(s) and that we are able to locate sheet music. In some cases where sheet music is not available or an arrangement for the full band is need- ed, this gives us the time needed to properly prepare the music and learn the material. Clients are not obligated to send in a list of general song requests. Many of our clients ask that the band just react to whatever their guests are responding to on the dance floor. Our clients that do provide us with song requests do so in varying degrees. Most clients give us a handful of songs they want played and avoided. Recently, we’ve noticed in increase in cli- ents customizing what the band plays and doesn’t play with very specific detail. If you de- sire the highest degree of control (allowing the band to only play within the margin of songs requested), we ask for a minimum of 100 requests. We want you to keep in mind that the band is quite good at reading the room and choosing songs that best connect with your guests. The more specific/selective you are, know that there is greater chance of losing certain song medleys, mashups, or newly released material the band has.

  • The Annals of Iowa
    The Annals of Volume 75, Number 4 Iowa Fall 2016 A QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF HISTORY SPECIAL ISSUE: WOMEN AND IOWA JOURNALISM In This Issue STEPHANIE GROSSNICKLE-BATTERTON, a doctoral candidate and graduate instructor in the Department of American Studies at the University of Iowa, shows how the Woman’s Standard, a monthly news- paper produced by the Iowa Woman Suffrage Association from 1886 to 1911, incorporated rural themes in its rhetoric, showed evidence of suf- frage work in rural areas, and to varying degrees became a counterpublic space for rural women where contributors explored issues relevant to Iowa farm women. JENNY BARKER-DEVINE, associate professor of history at Illinois College in Jacksonville, Illinois, explores the motivations of the women who produced the Emerald Goose, a humor magazine published at Iowa State College during World War I. She argues that they were not simply responding to an opening created by the war but were actively contesting for space in the student newsrooms and asserting their right to participate in curricular and extracurricular journalism. TRACY LUCHT, assistant professor in the Greenlee School of Journalism and Communication at Iowa State University, surveys the storied career of Dorothy Ashby Pownall from her days as a “sob sister” at the Des Moines Capital during World War I through her publications in Ladies’ Home Journal and the Saturday Evening Post and until her retirement from the Iowa City Press-Citizen in 1955. Pownall’s wide-ranging work, Lucht argues, reveals her methods of exercising agency within a patriarchal field and illustrates why historians must expand what they consider important journalism if they are to make their narratives more inclusive of women.

    SENATE RESOLUTION 8632 By Senators Esser, Poulsen, Brown, Finkbeiner, Regala, Zarelli, Kastama, Benton, Rasmussen, Carrell, Franklin, Pridemore, Eide, Sheldon, Doumit and Benson WHEREAS, The Ventures were the first nationally known, popular recording group to come out of Tacoma, Washington; and WHEREAS, The Ventures have recorded over 3000 songs and released over 250 albums, including 14 top 100 singles in the 1960s; and WHEREAS, Having sold over 90 million albums world-wide, with such hits as "Walk Don't Run," "Perfidia," "Lullaby of the Leaves," "Diamond Head," "2,000 Pound Bee," and a version of the Hawaii Five-O theme song, the Ventures have become the world's all-time #1 rock instrumental group; and WHEREAS, The Ventures are America's ambassadors of Rock and Roll to the non-English speaking world, having sold over 40 million albums in Japan alone; and WHEREAS, While retaining their trademark sound, the Ventures' musical stylings have adapted to shifting trends in popular music, as they experimented with blues, calypso, Latin, twist, country, pop, funk, disco, reggae, swamp, garage, TV themes, and psychedelic music; and WHEREAS, They were willing to experiment with wildly innovative concepts, such as combining different dance crazes in one of their few vocal songs: "The Twomp." It ain't the Twist. It ain't the Stomp. It's the Twomp!; and WHEREAS, Generations of guitar players have been inspired by the Ventures to twiddle with the reverb and tremolo knobs on their amplifiers; and WHEREAS, The Ventures even had a distinctive "Ventures

It was the most determinedly Japan-orientated live set to date, homing in as it did on numbers that appeared originally on the June 1967 LP Pops In Japan (tracks 1–3, 7, 11). A LITTLE BIT ME … was on Super Psychedelics from the same period [67/30], whereas WOOLY BULLY dated back to September 1965 ( The Ventures À Go-Go , [65/39]). For comment on the residue, see entries [66/49L] (DIAMOND HEAD: on All About The Ventures ) and [66/7L] (GINZA LIGHTS a Ventures-penned ‘special’ for Japan) + [67/2L] (A TASTE OF HONEY: both on On Stage Encore! ). The incorporation of two numbers from the previous live release, and the participation of Ms Chiyo Okumura on track 2, mean that we are down to under 20 minutes of new Ventures. But the music is absorbing in the main. It has frequently been remarked, at times with an air of resignation or even disapproval, that the Japanese numbers put The Ventures’ way lacked the muscle so characteristic of the group’s usual output: they are mellow, laid back, do not have the same drive.

  • Great Instrumental
    I grew up during the heyday of pop instrumental music in the 1950s and the 1960s (there were 30 instrumental hits in the Top 40 in 1961), and I would listen to the radio faithfully for the 30 seconds before the hourly news when they would play instrumentals (however the first 45’s I bought were vocals: Bimbo by Jim Reeves in 1954, The Ballad of Davy Crockett with the flip side Farewell by Fess Parker in 1955, and Sixteen Tons by Tennessee Ernie Ford in 1956). I also listened to my Dad’s 78s, and my favorite song of those was Raymond Scott’s Powerhouse from 1937 (which was often heard in Warner Bros. cartoons). and to records that my friends had, and that their parents had - artists such as: (This is not meant to be a complete or definitive list of the music of these artists, or a definitive list of instrumental artists – rather it is just a list of many of the instrumental songs I heard and loved when I was growing up - therefore this list just goes up to the early 1970s): Floyd Cramer (Last Date and On the Rebound and Let’s Go and Hot Pepper and Flip Flop & Bob and The First Hurt and Fancy Pants and Shrum and All Keyed Up and San Antonio Rose and [These Are] The Young Years and What’d I Say and Java and How High the Moon), The Ventures (Walk Don't Run and Walk Don’t Run ‘64 and Perfidia and Ram-Bunk-Shush and Diamond Head and The Cruel Sea and Hawaii Five-O and Oh Pretty Woman and Go and Pedal Pusher and Tall Cool One and Slaughter on Tenth Avenue), Booker T.

  • The Storm Also Rises by Tom Scheft
    The Storm Also Rises by Tom Scheft (published in the June 26, 1992 issue of Goldmine) * * * “You guys [the Rising Storm] really helped define the ’60s for me … much more than the super groups like the Beatles and the Stones.” Ron Fantasia, record collector “[We’re] like a dancing bear. It’s not how well it dances, but that it dances at all.” Bob Cohan, guitarist for the Rising Storm “I certainly can’t explain it. It’s curious and amazing - and obviously flattering - to think that something six high school seniors did for fun 25 years ago now is considered valuable to anyone other than those six people.” Todd Cohen, bassist for the Rising Storm * * * A while back, a friend showed me Goldmine’s 1989 article on the top 100 collectible record albums. I had been told the Rising Storm was a perennial pick, and there we were: The Rising Storm. Remnant 3571. A Calm Before The Rising Storm. 1968. $500. Mono. One of the collectible garage/frat records of the ’60s. Recorded by a group of college students in Massachusetts, this album features covers of Love’s “Message To Pretty,” the Remains’ “Don’t Look Back” and Wilson Pickett’s standby, “In The Midnight Hour.” The group got together a few years back for a reunion and recorded another album. Well . almost. First, the title was just Calm Before. Second, the year was 1967. Third, that 500- buck tag sounds reasonable, although an Italian collector recently paid $1,300 for an unopened copy. [Editor’s note: All prices in the article quoted were based on near mint quality, not mint -- i.e., unopened -- and were compiled from 1989 sales figures.] Fourth, the Storm did covers, but there were also five originals on the album.
