    LOS ANGELES — Jay Fair never really had a handshake with someone before he came to USC.
    Sure, he might’ve slapped hands with a fellow receiver, back when he was at Auburn. But not like this.
    After finding a rhythm with veteran Kyron Hudson on Thursday, Fair has checked off individual, customized handshakes with every wideout in USC’s room. He still lags behind. Sophomores Zachariah Branch and Ja’Kobi Lane have between 15 and 20 with various members of the program.

    A revised, less dramatic 605 Freeway improvement project — far different from four years ago — will no longer seek to destroy any homes but could add another carpool lane and multiple feeder lanes to relieve the freeway’s bottlenecks with the 60, 5, 10 and 105 freeways, LA Metro officials reported.
    Proponents say the two biggest goals are to cut some congestion and reduce the high number of accidents on the 27.4-mile-long eastern Los Angeles County freeway that carries 300,000
