I have been with my boyfriend on and off throughout life. We have known each other since childhood. This chart was so dead on it's scary. I met him at 14 years old and we clicked instantly. It was like we always knew one another. In your chart it seems we may have had previous incarnations. We have drifted in and out of each others lives on and off always picking up again like we were never apart ... incredible reading so true of us.
Your star is about to rise and shine in 2014, Leo. Are you ready for an amazing spell of luck? This summer, the planet of fame and fortune (Jupiter) moves into your stars, catapulting you to the rock star status you so desire and so deserve! Use the first half of the year to prepare on an inner level because the second half is going to explode beyond your wildest imagination. You're dance card will be so beyond full, it'll leave you very little time to keep up with yourself. Leo, you're about to enter a cycle of goodness that only comes around once every 12 years, so prepare to party and live large like the royalty you are!
Watch your words in 2014! It's nearly impossible to avoid extremes this year, and yet you'll be forced to temper some of your more dramatic verbal forms of expression as the North Node of fate moves into your communication zone. Get ready to learn the art of diplomacy and compromise in order to keep the flow between you and your loved ones. This doesn't mean you're not entitled to your strong opinions, Leo. Nor does it mean you have to sacrifice the headstrong power you're so known and loved for. What it does mean is that you're learning the precious significance of tact and timing when it comes to delivering your truth serum. You're also learning how important it is to truly take into consideration the point of view of the other in order for the highest level of communication to flourish.
The intense levels of personal transformation that began in 2013 will only get stronger and deeper this year. You are getting to know yourself on such a profoundly intimate level that there will be no room for any kind of self-deception or even subtle psychological betrayal. Self-knowledge is uber powerful. You're a living testament to know-thyself wisdom after surviving Saturn's tour through the basement of your psyche since October of 2012. This is the year to apply all that you've learned in the realm of personal partnerships. Now that you are very clear on your own lines in the sand and what you will and will not tolerate, your value in the eyes of others is sure to skyrocket.
Leo, 2014 is filled with so much luck and opportunity for you that love is sure to be a huge part of the mix. The lessons that began in late 2012 around emotional and sexual intimacy are only getting deeper in 2014. Chances are, you're already in the throes of a very powerful relationship in order to reveal all of the complex layers that only relationships can mirror. If you happen to be single, your friendships are certainly a source of depth and intimacy for you to bridge the gap until your next romantic encounter. Of course, it's quite rare for a Leo to go for very long before falling madly in love all over again. And besides, this year you're simply in love with life all around!
This is a year to return to your childlike spirit when it comes to love and romance. If you've been taking yourself or your love life a bit too seriously, you can rectify that situation by getting back into a playful mode. You're at your best when you live from your heart and allow your silly side to shine. After all, you're just a big kid at your core and that's exactly what others find the most attractive about you, Leo.
You may feel more domestic and less romantic during the first half of the year, and there's certainly nothing wrong with that. You're still in a bit of a self-nurturing mode until July, when Jupiter comes out of your house of retreat and brings major abundance to the relationship axis of your horoscope. Your generous and big-hearted tendencies are about to become exaggerated in an irresistible way starting this summer. The only downfall to this big Jupiter transit is that you may feel so invincible you forget to be gracious in moments when a little humility might be necessary. If you remember to cultivate gratitude for this fabulous windfall of prosperity on all levels, you won't have to suffer that inevitable fall from grace. Keep love at the forefront of all you do, and spoil the ones you adore. If pride threatens your love buzz, simply say no and get back to what you do best: radiating your passionate and gigantic heart!
You're the golden child in 2014, Leo! This is your year to make your next big mark on the world and take your rightful spot in the spotlight. Everything you've been working on for the past 12 years is ready for the pay-off zone! You'll feel a colossal boost in status kick-in starting in July when Jupiter enters your stars. This is a time when you've got luck on your side. Expansion and risk-taking are favored because you've got the support of guardian angel planet surrounding you with blissful fortune and divine protection. If you've been playing small in any way with your career, you'll quickly see how crazy and out of touch that mentality is with your true potential. You were born for greatness and the fiery side of your personality is dying to blaze its own trail this year. Don't wait around for permission from another. You're the leader of the pack; it's just a matter of stepping into those bigger shoes. Courage is your middle name now.
Travel becomes an important component in furthering your career this year. You're ready to expand your kingdom. Don't turn down any opportunities for travel. You'll be astonished at how many connections you make just by traveling abroad under the strong Jupiter influence. It's as though your luck doubles just by crossing the pond. Plus, the wanderlust is so overwhelming it will make it hard to stay focused on work when confined to a limited setting. This is the year to expand your personal and professional horizons (and the two are interchangeable).
Communication is a key theme in your career as the Nodes of Fate move into your mental zones early in the year. You'll be called to pay attention to the way you put yourself out into the world via social networking sites, email, websites, blogs, etc. Your image in the world of social media plays a huge part in taking you to the next level with your professional reputation. Choose every word, photo and message with utmost care. The social media world is paying close attention to your every move. Ban those drunken party photos from your newsfeed!

During the last weeks the people in North Africa and the Middle East have shown that freedom and democracy are universal. They even inspired the protests in the Midwest against the attack upon collective bargaining rights.
We should not ignore traditions, commons, etc., all these unwritten rules of societies are relevant and important. You mentioned Japan and the post-war conflict between what I incorrectly call Samurai ethics (the sensei-student relation, sacrificing yourself for the common good, etc.) which we can witness right now during the catastophe over there and Western individualism has been quite interesting. Furthermore there is nothing more awkward than being in a new place and not being aware of the local customs. When I have been in Ireland and bought a drink in a pub I naturally wanted to add a tip but that's not how the game works over there. But these particularities are always overshadowed by universals like freedom, self-determination, democracy, life in dignity. We are first and above all human and only secondly part of this or that culture. |

Rede Globo (Globe Network), or simply Globo, is a Brazilian television network, launched by media mogul Roberto Marinho on April 26, 1965. It is owned by media conglomerate Organizações Globo, being by far the largest of its holdings. Globo is the second-largest commercial TV network in annual revenue worldwide just behind the ABC Television Network[4] and the largest producer of telenovelas.[5]
Globo is headquartered in the Jardim Botânico neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro, where its news division is based. The network's main production studios are located at a complex dubbed Projac (short for "Jacarepaguá project"), located in Jacarepaguá, Barra da Tijuca. It is composed of 122 owned and affiliate television stations throughout Brazil[6] plus its own international networks, Globo TV International and TV Globo Portugal. In 2007, Globo moved its analog operations to high-definition television production for digital broadcasting.[7]

Early years[edit]
In July 1957, Brazilian President Juscelino Kubitschek gave his approval to Radio Globo's request for opening a television channel.[8] On December 30, 1957, the National Council of Telecommunication made public a decree which granted the channel four frequency in Rio de Janeiro to TV Globo Ltda. Globo then started preparing the beginning of its television broadcasting operations.
In 1962, a controversial agreement between Time-Life and Organizações Globo, Roberto Marinho's holding company, gave Marinho access to a sum of over 6 million dollars with which he would buy equipment and build an infra-structure for Globo to begin its television service. In return, Time-Life would be entitled to 30% of all profits from Globo's TV operations. As a matter of comparison, the largest TV station in Brazil at the time, TV Tupi, had been built with a sum of 300,000 dollars when it was launched in 1950. Tupi was the first television network in Brazil and Latin America, which would become one of Globo's main competitors until its closure in 1980.[9]
The agreement was widely seen as illegal, as then Brazilian constitution prohibited any foreign person or company from owning interests in a Brazilian media company.[10] In trying to address the legal aspects, the agreement specifically mentioned that its terms did not give Time-Life the right to share or interfere in the management of Globo's operations. In practice Time-Life wielded great influence inside Globo; Joseph Wallach, the former director of Time-Life's TV station in California, became Globo's de facto executive director and Marinho's assistant.[9]
On April 1, 1964 a year before Rede Globo was opened, a military-led coup deposed the elected government of President João Goulart, which was supported by the Organizações Globo - and it was admitted by the group 49 years after.[11] As the military reduced the democratic institutions of Brazil, it simultaneously sought to increase its hold over the media, especially the major conglomerates. At the time, Marinho had been a supporter of the coup, but his deal with Time-Life was still being investigated by congress. The military decided against the deal, which ultimately allowed Marinho to get out of the deal under exceptional terms. In 1969, Marinho terminated the deal with Time-Life by agreeing to pay back the 6 million dollars invested.[12] This in effect meant that Marinho could repay the infra-structure provided by Time-Life and would no longer have the obligation to share 30% of Globo's profit with Time-Life.[9]
Globo began its broadcast on April 26, 1965 in Rio de Janeiro, then broadcasting on channel four.[13] On that day, at about 10:45 a.m., Rubens Amaral formally introduced Rede Globo to viewers in Rio de Janeiro and all over Guanabara State, before "Moon River" by Henry Mancini was sung, before the airing of its first program, the children-oriented Uni Duni Te.[14] By May 2 that year, its longest running and oldest program, the live telecast of the Holy Mass was seen for the first time. On the following year, Globo purchased another television station, São Paulo-based TV Paulista,[15] expanding its operations, and beginning to take over the national television ratings. By January 1966, at the height of flooding in Rio, Globo broadcast its first major news coverage.[16]
Another trademark for the network was Jornal da Globo, successor to Ultranoticias (1966–67), and the network's main newscast until 1969. It had a broadcast time of 15 minutes, and was then hosted by Hilton Gomez and Luis Jatoba.
In 1967, Globo began to build its national network with the affiliation of Porto Alegre-based TV Gaúcha (now RBS TV). TV Gaúcha would become Globo's affiliate on Florianopolis in the late 1970s, when it received its current name. It is one of Globo's oldest affiliates, active since 1962, three years before Globo was launched.[17] Uberlândia's TV Triângulo (currently Rede Integração), and Goiânia's TV Anhanguera (now Rede Anhanguera) soon followed in 1967[18] and 1968. The now extinct TV Guajará, based in Belém, was launched in 1969, followed by TV Verdes Mares on January of the following year, although it began its test broadcasts on 1969.[19]
1968 was the year when its branch station in Belo Horizonte, Rede Globo Minas, was launched, as well as the very first microwave broadcasts between Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo.
Jornal Nacional and the climb to full leadership of Brazilian television (1969–80)[edit]
JN, Jornal Hoje and the Plim-plim signal[edit]
On September 1, 1969, the country and national television broadcasting was changed with the premiere of Jornal Nacional (National Journal), the nation's first live newscast anchored by Cid Moreira and Hilton Gomez. Its theme music, "The Fuzz" by Frank DeVol, became one of the show's trademarks, together with the program logo and the "Boa Noite" ("Good evening") greeting by the hosts. Its success was followed by the launch of Jornal Hoje (Journal Today) on April 21, 1971, the day when its Brasilia station (Rede Globo Brasília, Channel 10) was inaugurated.[20] The program was then only shown in Rede Globo Rio de Janeiro (Channel 4), the flagship station, until 1974 when it became a nationwide midday newscast. It had its first FIFA World Cup broadcast in 1970, the same year when Rede Excelsior was closed down, with the network absorbing some of its talents and top management. The network's famous Plim-Plim interval signal also debuted that year.[21]
It began color television broadcasts in February 1972 on a national scale, the same year as Rede Bandeirantes did convert television broadcasts to color and 10 years after the first color broadcasts in the country was launched by Rede Excelsior (and also the same year as the opening of its Recife station, Rede Globo Recife Channel 13, now Rede Globo Nordeste, on April 22), with the national color broadcasts being debuted on March 31 the same year as the Meu Primeiro Baile episode of Caso Especial, its teletheater show, which is the first color integrated program on national television was shown on the network.
Before the big launch of color broadcasts, it launched its famous Christmas and New Year holiday campaign, A Festa é Sua (Its Your Party), in November 1971. The campaign's theme song, "Um Novo Tempo" (A New Time), is still used during its year-end station campaign plugs and identifications since then. It is also one of Brazil's great Christmas holiday songs. It was the same year on March 16 when the late-night edition of Jornal Nacional (called Jornal Nacional-Segunda Edição, National Journal Second Edition), hosted by Fabbio Perez and Ronan Soares, began broadcasting the entire day's headlines until 1982. Its 15-minute international version, Jornal Internacional (International Journal), anchored by Jorge Pontual and Sandra Passarinho, began airing in April 1972, lasting until 1975. It originally ran for 20 minutes during its first two years. It was replaced in 1975 by Amanha (Tomorrow), the network's local news roundup at late nights. Perez and Fabio Castilho hosted it until 1979.
1973 saw the birth of two new programs on the network, the documentary program Globo Repórter (formerly the Globo Shell Specials which ran from 1971 to 1973), hosted by Sergio Chapelin, and Fantástico (Fantástico: O Show Da Vida, It's Fantastic: The Show of Life from 1974–79), then the network's weekly variety program from 1974 to 1993 when it became the network's weekly newsmagazine broadcast on Sundays, recognizable through its famous theme music and from 1973 to 1995, its ballet dancers. Cid Moreira anchored it until 1988, joined by Chapelin during its early days (Moreira is presently the program's special segment host since 1998). When the former's hosting duties expired in 1988, William Bonner (presently one of Jornal Nacional's anchors), Valeria Monteiro, Mario Vasconcellos, who became the titular host, then program commentator Alexandre Garcia and Wagner Montes joined the program, joined by Chapelin and Jornal da Globo's Lelia Cordeiro, who served in the show for three years since 1985. Leo Batista, the longest program anchor from 1973 to 2007, served as the show's sports segment host, while Chico Anysio served as both humorist and commentator until 1992. Esporte Espetacular (Spectacular Sports), the network's first sports newscast, broadcast until today on Sundays, debuted on March that year. It would last a decade, and was relaunched in 1987.
On April 26 the next year (1974), in response to the events of the Carnation Revolution in Portugal, Globo became the first ever Brazilian television station to broadcast an international news coverage. There days later, on April 28, it broadcast in full color for the first time, with all its stations converting to full color broadcasts until 1977, and the entire network system was beginning to broadcast via satellite in 1982, five years after.
The next year, when Globo turned 10, it rebroadcast Selva de Pedra because of the cancellation of its newest drama, Roque Santeiro, by the federal government, only to air a decade later. Its Sessao da Tarde afternoon film banner was launched also in 1975, and its Caso Especial teletheater program was also shown from April to December the same year, on a weekly basis.
A New Corporate Image[edit]
1976 saw the beginning of the network's scheduling process (the Padrão Globo de Qualidade), which consists of two soap operas followed with newscasts, Globo Repórter and one to two more drama shows or cinema, comedy programming and others after. The process was led by Walter Clark and Jose Bonifacio de Olivera Sobrinho in 1960, when Rede Excelsior was launched (the process was inherited by Rede Globo upon Excelsior's closure in 1970). It rose the network to full audience leadership in the late 1970s, gaining more ratings and clinching the top spot in Brazilian television.
This was also the reason why Silvio Santos, one of the network's original variety show presenters since 1965, backed out of Globo, and moved his 11-year old program (Programa Silvio Santos, The Silvio Santos Program) to Rede Tupi, while putting up his own network, TVS (now SBT) in the process the next year, even bringing his own show there. By in the process, it would also continue the first nationwide variety show telecast that Globo had since 1966, and ten years later was also broadcast on São Paulo's Rede Record until 1987, not just on Rede Tupi until 1980 and of course, on TVS, presently Sistema Brasileiro de Televisão until today.
Its humor and comedy program, Os Trapalhões, began the next year, continuing until 1995, together with the network's morning news program, Bom Dia São Paulo (Good Morning São Paulo), which four years later would have a national version. 1975 would also be the first time its present insignia was shown: it was created by Hans Donner, and was then a colored blue sphere with a TV-shaped box with another blue ball inside. Donner also created the network's first presentation package with the new corporate logo for the first time with the help of New York-based Dolphin Productions. That year also was the premiere of Sítio do Picapau Amarelo (Yellow Woodpecker Ranch), one of the network's famous children's series. Its first version ran until 1986, its second version was aired from 2001 to 2007 (both were live-action ones) and from April 2007, it has an animated version as well but the 2000 logo version of Globo that they used turned out to be their last and the current logo from March 2008 is in use with various animated idents.
The network's second successful FIFA World Cup telecast after its first (FIFA World Cup 1978) happened the following year (1978), followed by the premiere telecast of Globo Esporte (Globo Sports), the network's daily sports newscast, presently still airing before Jornal Hoje, then anchored by Luciano do Valle. Also that year, Caso Especial ended its first phrase of broadcasts (it would continue until 1995, under various names), and was replaced by another teletheater program, Aplauso (Applause).
The decade was closed with the premiere of the Domingo Maior (Best Sunday) film block, one of the new programs Globo made for Sundays, the Cinema Especial holiday film specials, and the revival of Jornal da Globo in 1979 after a ten-year absence (it lasted until 1981), plus the Jornal das Sete (News at Seven) local newscasts of 1979-83, precursor to the network's local news programs of today. Jornal da Globo then was anchored by Sergio Chapelin and was aired after JN Second Edition, and now had a running time of 30 minutes. Domingo Global, the musical program showcasting both Brazilian and international music, also made its debut.
At the top: Globo in a changing era of Brazilian television (1980–90)[edit]
As Rede Globo marked its 15th years of broadcasts in 1980-81, it had two major events in its sleeve. Since 1980 was the year that Rede Tupi shut down its operations, it surprised many former Tupi viewers and supporters with its anniversary programs. Two of them was the Festival 15 Anos (15th Years Festival) which showcased the best drama programs of the last 15 years, and the Os Trapalhões marathon, which gave itself to charitable activities for 8 long hours. It proved to many Brazilians how the network was proving well as the now audience leader in Brazilian television. Aside from it, its Vale a Pena Ver de Novo (It's Worth Watching Once Again) afternoon drama block debuted on May 5 that year. Globo Rural, its rural newscast also debuted in the same year, with Carlos Nascimento as its first presenter. By then, it was broadcast weekly, on Sundays. Another debut program was the woman-oriented TV Mulher aimed at women's issues.
More Surprises and Shows[edit]
1981 would see the debut of the top-rating comedy program Viva O Gordo with Jô Soares at the helm, one of the network's many mainstay comedies of the decade.
Aside from its 1982 FIFA World Cup coverage in 1982, the network premiered the children's show Balão Mágico (Magic Balloon), which ran from 1982 to 1986. It was anchored by the children's musical group Turma do Balão Mágico, whose music struck a chord with its viewers. 1982 also saw the Jornal da Globo relaunch in August, after two successive editions. The presenters then were Renato Machado, Belisa Ribeiro and Luciana Villas Boas, with Carlos Monforte as program commentator.
1983 saw the birth of another network hit: Vídeo Show, successfully airing till today. Its first program host was Tássia Camargo. The network's daily electronic magazine show (formerly a weekly program from 1983–94), it gives an inside look of the network's programs and includes bloopers, interviews and even a look into Globo's historical moments. Bonner, Chico Pinheiro and Malu Mader were some of the program's early co-hosts. It also had its SOS Nordeste (SOS Northeast) campaign which debuted that year led by Renato Aragão of Os Trapalhões, lasting until 1986. Yet another success was the top-rating drama Guerra Dos Sexos in the evening slots.
Also debuting that year were the Praça TV local newscasts (the name of the program were different depending on the state or locality it was transmitted to : RJ TV, SP TV, MG TV, ES TV, DF TV, BA TV, Paraná TV, ...), aired twice a day and the national version of the network's São Paulo morning newscast, Bom Dia Brasil (Good Morning Brazil), with Carlos Monforte as its first anchor, by then based in Globo's Brasília studios until 1996. By then it had two editions, only broadcast in full then in Globo's Recife, Brasilia and Belo Horizonte stations because São Paulo (1977—) and Rio de Janeiro (1983—84 and 1989—) had their own local editions (Bom Dia Praca) of the newscast.
In 1984, it not only premiered its Supercine film slot (which is aired on Saturdays), it extended Praça TV to late night as a result of the Jornal da Globo relaunch of 1982. Lasting until 1990, the 10-minute Praça TV Terceira Edição (Praça TV Third Edition) gave its affiliated stations the chance to recap the day's local news in their own networks after Jornal da Globo was aired. By then, Eliakim Araujo and Liliana Rodriguez (later replaced by Leilane Neubarth in 1984) had become its presenters, and even had Jô Soares as humorist until he moved to SBT in 1988. Also premiering was Praça TV Sunday Editions, lasting until June 1987, which highlighted the news stories of the day and served as Fantastico's preview show in the midday and early evening editions.
It was also the year of the Diretas Já (Direct Elections (for president) Now) campaign in some Brazilian cities from March 1983 to April 1984, in which Jornal Nacional had a mistake in carrying news about the campaign's progress.
1985–89: Globo at 20, Countdown to 25[edit]
For Globo, 1985 was its 20th anniversary year, full of new programming and more surprises. That year was one of the best years ever for the channel, for various reasons. One of them was the Festival 20 Anos (20 Years Festival) showcase of previous soap operas aired on the network. Other surprises include the record breaking final episode of Roque Santeiro, then its rating-topping series, which in March, after a 10-year absence was finally shown on Rede Globo newer than its planned previous edition, and the debut of Corujão, its programming-ending block of films for all Brazilians, especially the older citizens, now rejoiced by the end of the country's military rule of 21 years. Since it's the last program before sign-off except for some days of the week, films rated for adults are shown here, followed by the network's sign-off plug, showing the next day's programming. SOS Nordeste Urgente ended its run that year, and the network formally announced its replacement, the Criança Esperança (Children's Hope) charity telethon, to be aired the next year.
1986 was the key year when Xuxa Meneghel's own show, Xou da Xuxa (Xuxa's Show) debuted on Rede Globo. Xuxa, who left the smillary formatted program Clube da Criança from Rede Manchete joined the network and thus, her show replaced the successful Balão Mágico as a result. It was a hit among children in all country, airing all week (from Mondays to Saturdays) for seven years until 1992. That year was also the 20th anniversary of Os Trapalhões, which lasted until 1987. The network's other big program was its coverage of the 1986 FIFA World Cup, plus the first telecast of the Criança Esperança children's charity show, which Renato Aragão (of Os Trapalhões) hosted. This first show was directed by Victor Paranhos, and was produced by Walter Lacet.
It was also when the network's corporate arms evolved into the present day design, it was then two silver balls with a rainbow-colored box inside. The logo was renovated several times in the years that followed. 1987 saw yet more improved programming debut in all areas.
In 1988, Vale Tudo, one of Brazilian television's best dramas, premiered on Rede Globo, followed by its Tela Quente weekly film block, aired on Mondays.
On March 26, 1989, the network's own Sunday variety program, Domingão do Faustão (Faustão's Big-Sunday) was launched as the network started to take over the Sunday afternoon TV ratings, then led by SBT's Programa Silvio Santos. Still airing on Sunday afternoons and evenings before Fantástico. Another newcomer was the Temperatura Máxima film block, presently airing on Sundays since 1990 (originally it was aired on Wednesdays). Within the year, so many series and programs premiered on the network and were aired until 1990, but the news programs got a makeover and change of presenters, especially the main newscasts and Praça TV in the local level.
Even Jornal Nacional and Jornal da Globo got makeovers and hosting changes, the former got its present version of The Fuzz plus a new studio coupled with the return of Sergio Chapelin to the program as co-presenter while JG had a change of anchors with the departure to Rede Manchete of Eliakim Araujo and Leila Cordeiro, its then anchors, leaving behind co-anchor Leilane Neubarth. All three presenters were replaced by William Bonner and Fátima Bernardes (the latter had already replaced Cordeiro when she moved to Jornal Hoje), becoming their first team-up in a Globo newscast since March that year, when Bernardes joined Fantástico along with Fausto Silva, becoming one of its co-hosts along with Bonner, Chapelin and others plus Chico Anysio, one of the original presenters. Bonner soon took over as Jornal Hoje principal anchor(replacing Cordeiro) and joined Jornal Nacional as one of the substitute presenters while Fatima stayed with Fantástico until the mid-1990s. They were to be married in 1993, several years after Eliakim and Leila's own wedding.
The year ended with hope that next year, the 40th year of Brazilian TV and Globo's 25th anniversary year, will be one of the best years that Globo has ever seen, as shown in their years-end campaign video commemorating its 25th year anniversary, in which most of the network's artists, program presenters and newscasters performed its 25th anniversary theme song.
1990: Globo at 25, scoring unbeatable at 100[edit]
1990 was the year when Globo turned 25 years old. But still it began to defend its lead on the national TV ratings. Some of its shows and programs debuted that same year, together with its anniversary presentation Festival 25 Anos (25 Years Festival) of replayed telecasts of all its best programs in the past 25 years were:
- Escolinha do Professor Raimundo (weekday afternoons)
- Araponga
- A Rainha da Sucata
TV Pirata ended its run that year, because of the loss of the post JN program slot ratings to Rede Manchete's Pantanal drama series, then aired on weekdays from 9:30 to 10:30 in the evening,and was reinstated in 1991. It also broadcast the 1990 FIFA World Cup that same year, and also covered the 1990 congressional elections for the National Congress of Brazil.
1991–1994: The Countdown to 30 and Globosat Networks[edit]
1991 saw the birth of Globosat, Globo Organization's own cable service in which Rede Globo was a part of. By then, it had only 4 channels, compared with more than 30 channels today. Another big surprise also came that year in the form of O Dono do Mundo, another of its top record dramas, plus Vamp, its highly successful 7 P.M. soap, which would later become a Latin American hit. Plantão JN, Globo's own breaking news service was relaunched into Plantão da Globo that year, and Fausto Silva began hosting his own New Year program. Globo also became the official network for The Simpsons when it made its national premiere. Globo's 6:00 soap opera, Felicidade, marked yet another first for the network because it had a lady director, Denise Saraceni, for the first time in national television drama history.
By the next year, President Collor's impeachment trials and the 1992 Barcelona Olympics were all covered by Rede Globo's news and sports teams.
On December 31, 1992, Xuxa declared the end of her show's long run on television, one of the biggest successes it ever had. Globo replaced it with TV Colosso, the all-marionette hosted show that continued the network's long successes with child-friendly programming. It ran until 1997. But she moved to host a Sunday´s brand new family-oriented program in 1993. Globo's drama programming for that year also were successful.
1994 would see Globo become the official network for the 1994 FIFA World Cup, and it carried to television viewers all over the nation the journey of the Brazilian national football team into its third championship ever. It would be also a great year for its drama and news departments. However the May 1 celebrations nationwide that year were marred by the sudden death that day of the nation's Formula 1 hero, Ayrton Senna, in the middle of the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix. As the official F1 broadcaster, it brought the sad news of his demise to the nation as well as covered the aftermath of it with special coverages and the huge national mourning for his sudden loss.
1995-1999: Into the 21st century and the 5th century of Brazil[edit]
1995 was the year Globo turned 30. The highlights of the year included the opening of the brand new Projac studios and the launch of a new youth oriented program: Malhação, plus its Festival 30 Anos (30 Years Festival) commemorative series. It was the year that Os Trapalhões ended a long successful run on the network, and the Plim Plim interval idents were updated by various cartoonists for the anniversary. Another hit among viewers were its advocacy campaign ads on various issues.
In 1996, Globo, after a year of losses, began to rise again as the nation's number one, aided by brand new programs and its coverage of the 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta, coupled with changes in the newsrooms. Globo was the first Brazilian network to have its own news channel, Globo News, which started in the same year. Now based in both São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, the main headquarters, it not only broadcast replays of Globo's news programs, but had its own news programs and commentaries. The next year, the network was threathed with top rated programming from SBT and Record, but in 1998 the network recovered its top place thanks to its 1998 FIFA World Cup live coverage, even as its 9PM telenovela Torre de Babel faced controversy over its violent images that it had to be pulled off the air. Holiday programming was boosted by its New Year's Eve premiere of Show da Virada, Aloysio Legey's creation that is aimed to be Brazil's answer to various New Year television specials worldwide. That year was also the start of its ground breaking Brazil 500 project aimed at preparing the nation for its 500th anniversary of its discovery.
1999 would prove to be another trendsetting year for the network with the launch of various new programs in drama.
Globo has since expanded to become the largest TV Network in Brazil, with over $2 billion in revenue in 1992.[9] It is famous for the telenovelas (soap operas) which, together with the news and football, dominate prime time viewing in Brazil. These are exported to several countries, to both Portuguese-speaking countries and elsewhere, where they are dubbed into local languages, rose to popularity, and make profits to the broadcasting stations.
It also began its very own international broadcasting service, Rede Globo International (Rede Globo Internacional, now Globo TV International), in 1999. It now reaches more countries worldwide, especially the Portuguese-speaking nations outside Brazil, including Portugal itself where the network has its own overseas station.
2000: Globo at the beginning of the New Millennium and the golden year of Brazilian Television[edit]
2000, the 35th anniversary of Globo, the 50th of Brazilian Television and the 500th for Brazil, was highlighted by its TV Ano 50 series honoring the first five decades of Brazilian Television, and the Brazil 500 festival concert, the launch of three brand new variety shows (the Saturday afternoon hit Caldeirão do Huck, the late weeknight Programa do Jô with Jo Soares and Altas Horas with Serginho Groisman aired on Sunday midnights), new dramas, and its 2000 Summer Olympics coverage, and was capped off by the Titanic two-part premiere in December as part of Cinema Especial (for the first time in Brazilian TV), another ratings record breaker. Globo also became a pioneer in reality-based programming with the premiere of the successful No Limite (No Limits) program that year.
2001-2003: The success of "O Clone", coverage of the World Cup and the death of Roberto Marinho.[edit]
2001 started well for Globo, despite a fire at the Xuxa Park set in January that caused the show to end its run.[22] One after another the network did a great job in the drama and comedy programming for the year despite low audience ratings in several programs plus two very successful dramas that were national hits, and the second version of its acclaimed Sítio do Pica-Pau Amarelo children's program debuted to great expectations to viewers. In the news departments the network covered the events of September 11 to viewers all over the nation, and continued giving important coverage of its aftermath.
On October 1, 2001 O Clone debuted, which was a great success on ratings and received good critical reception.[23] It was written by Glória Perez and featured a large cast of stars. The telenovela was exported to 91 countries and has also become an international success.[24]
Globo aired the 2002 World Cup as national broadcaster and came out with one of the highest ratings in coverage. Among others the network also had aired the exclusive October 12 concert of Sandy & Junior, another great ratings winner for viewers nationwide.
On August 6, 2003 the owner and president of Globo, Roberto Marinho, dies aged 98 at a hospital in Rio de Janeiro. The death of the entrepreneur had great coverage of the issuer, as well as their competitors. The three children of Marinho assumed command of the station.
2004-present: loss of interest in telenovelas[edit]
For Globo, 2004 was the beginning of the long decline of viewership support for its legenedary telenovelas, but the year was one of the strongest for television drama as telenovelas Da Cor do Pecado and Senhora do Destino made high ratings one after the other.[25][26] The year also saw its 2004 Athens Olympics Coverage[27] as well and debuted Brazil TV in the afternoon bringing national news stories for satellite viewers.
2005 was the year that changed the network's viewers as it marked its first 40 years with mixed feelings (due to Rede Record's improving situation several network talents and newscasters left for the network that year).[28] But the year ended in a high note for the network: Alma Gêmea[29] and Belíssima[30] scored high audience ratings in drama, and the network transmitted to viewers nationwide the robbery at the Central Band of Fortaleza via TV Verdes Mares, one of the great news stories covered by the news department.
2006 started out with the record-breaking live coverage of U2's successful February 20 and 21 São Paulo concerts, another triumph in the audience ratings. Despite several scandals that rocked the network it did a great job covering the 2006 FIFA World Cup and the Presidential elections of that year. It was also a good year for its various programs.
The IBOPE ratings of São Paulo metropolitan area shows that Globo telenovelas has lost, between 2004 and 2008, 26,2% of viewership, although Globo is still the leader network. Its previous 9 p.m. telenovela, Viver a Vida, had an average rating of 37 points,[31] an all-time low for Globo. But eventually overtaken by Passione (2010-2011) and Insesato Coração (2011), who obtained an average of 35 points.[32] Although these indices was presented improvement in two later telenovelas, Fina Estampa (2011-2012) and Avenida Brasil (2012), who recorded 39 points.[33]
Telenovelas in the 1980s easily reached over 50 present, Vale Tudo and O Salvador da Pátria being notable examples.
Corporate Logos[edit]
Globo has used several logos throughout its history.[34] The first version of the current logo design debuted in 1975, a blue ball with a television shaped box in the middle, with another ball inside it and represents the planet earth with a television screen broadcasting the planet earth itself. The second version debuted in 1980 and re-edited in 1983 with both balls in one united silver colour The third version of the current logo debuted in 1986, now with the two balls being silver, and the inside being rainbow colored. Most of Globo's modern logos have been minor variations of this design. Hans Donner designed the current logo and presentation packages used by Globo, in 2008, 2009, 2010 and in April, September and December 2012. These include interprogram idents and even an enhanced Plim-Plim interval ident.
The network announced that on April 26, 2013, Rede Globo would begin using a new redesigned logo for the network's 48th anniversary,[35][36] but was postponed for unknown reason.[37] The redesigned logo, however, was leaked on various websites since the video showing the evolution of the Rede Globo symbol was uploaded on October 15, 2013, and the logo is yet to launch officially in April 6, 2014.[38][39]
List of active programs on Globo channels[edit]
Globo is simulcast in analogue and digital television, in standard definition and 1080i high definition. On December 2, 2007, test simulcasts for 1080i begin in the São Paulo market; Rio de Janeiro, Brasília and Belo Horizonte followed on February, 2008, with other capitals following on the next months.[7] Prior to this, the Rede Globo provided 480i standard definition service.[40][41]
Globo is broadcast in metropolitan areas through a number of owned-and-operated stations including Globo-RJ (Rio de Janeiro), Globo-SP (São Paulo), Globo-DF (Brasília), Globo-MG (Belo Horizonte), Globo-NE (Recife). Rede Globo programming is also carried into other areas of regional Brazil by 147 locally-branded affiliate television networks owned by third-party companies. The Rede Globo covers 98,53% of the territory of Brazil.[34]
International Distribution[edit]
Launched in 1999 and now with more than 620 thousand subscribers[42] as of 2012, Globo TV International (TV Globo Internacional) operates satellite television channels around the world, including in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Japan, bringing a mix of entertainment, news and sports programming sourced from Globo TV, GNT, Globo News, Canal Viva, Canal Futura and SporTV to Brazilian and other Portuguese-speaking people (Lusophones). Two distinct international feeds originate live and directly to viewers around the world from the network's broadcast center located in Rio de Janeiro, the Globo TV Europe/Africa/Middle East feed and Globo TV Americas.[43] A third Globo TV Asian feed originates from Japan by IPC[44] and is based on material recorded earlier in the day from the Americas feed which is replayed on a tape delay schedule more suitable to the Far East Asia time zones. Other locally originated programs from Japan and other older recorded material no longer broadcast on the Americas/Oceania feed is also scheduled on the Globo TV Japan/Asia feed. Since 2007, Globo TV also operates a premium channel which originates from Lisbon, Portugal, called TV Globo Portugal. TV Globo Portugal differs from the Globo TV feed in Europe due to contractual agreements with other broadcast networks in Portugal, mainly SIC Portugal, which holds first run rights to some Globo TV programming like novelas.
In the United States, Globo TV International is available nationwide in standard definition via satellite services (Dish Network, and DirecTV) (which also offer Globosat's Brazilian soccer channel Premiere Futebol Clube) and by Over-the-top IPTV provider Dishworld. In the U.S., various cable operators like Time Warner Cable in Manhattan, New York; Comcast in Miami, Boston, New Jersey; Bright House Networks in Orlando, Tampa; RCN in Boston and Atlantic Broadband in Atlanta also carry the channel on their systems as Switched video. In Canada, it is available through Rogers Cable and the NEXTV IPTV service, and in Mexico and other Latin American countries, it can be seen on SKY satellite.[45]
Globo TV International was broadcast in Australia and New Zealand via UBI World TV until June 2012 when UBI ceased operations.
Globo.com is the Internet portal arm of the company and has large historical video library and provides part of current content recorded and live TV news and special shows such as Big Brother Brasil. It also broadcast the World Cup 2006 games live in 480i and 480p. The portal also provides large access to media conglomerate products such magazines, newspapers and live radio. The domain attracted at least 1.8 million visitors annually by 2008 according to a Compete.com study[46] and currently is ranked 105th most accessed site in the world according to Alexa[47]
The Television network is the centerpiece of enterprise. Globo has its main production complex in Rio de Janeiro. Opened in 1995, the "Projac" (officially named "Central Globo de Produção", or Globo Production Center), where most of their shows are produced, is one of largest TV production centers in the world and the biggest in Latin America, with numerous lots and urban areas as backdrops for soap operas.
In the late 90s, Globo moved part of its news division—encompassing both news desks, production staff and studios—to the city of São Paulo, Itaim Bibi district. This is where its satellite headquarters are located, inside the home city of Rede Record, its rival network since Globo's founding in 1965. Nevertheless, its main news shows, such as Jornal Nacional and Fantástico, as well as its own news channel Globo News, remain broadcast from the main headquarters in Rio de Janeiro. This is where Globo's news headquarters, the Globo Journalism Center (now the Globo News and Sports Broadcasting Center) is located.
Rede Globo is part of the Organizações Globo group, a major Brazilian media conglomerate. Its associated companies are: Globo Filmes (motion picture company), Globo International Network (international broadcasting), Globo Marcas (branding and advertising), Globo Video (internet video), Globo Minas (television station at Belo Horizonte), Globo Brasília (television station at Brasília), Globo Nordeste (television station at Recife), Globo Rio de Janeiro (television station at Rio de Janeiro) and Globo São Paulo (television station at São Paulo).
As a consequence of the size of its viewership, Rede Globo is in a position to exert significant influence over the outcome of a local or national election. In the 1989 presidential elections, Globo aired the final debate between Fernando Collor de Mello and Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, but edited the debate in such a way that Collor received considerably more air time than Lula, and juxtaposed some of Collor's more eloquent responses with some of Lula's less eloquent responses.[48] Years later, the network publicly apologized for the incident, and electoral law was changed to prohibit networks from showing edited versions of political debates and enacted a law similar to the American equal-time rule. The theme was openly discussed in Jornal Nacional's official book, which was released in 2006.
In 1993 the British Channel 4, after the abolition of the IBA, and the Channel Four Television Company, as the Channel Four Television Corporation, made a documentary, Beyond Citizen Kane, about the power and influence of the network in Brazil. The documentary had participations of great Brazilian political characters, including Leonel Brizola, who was also a political adversary of Rede Globo.[citation needed]
Globo has had a tempestuous history with the organization which owns the Rede Record TV network (that became in last years the Brazil's 2nd largest TV network, surpassing the SBT). Record's owners, the Universal Church of the Kingdom of God, were mired in controversy during the church's growth, including an incident in 1995, when Globo aired a tape which showed the church's founder, Edir Macedo, teaching other church officials how to manipulate church followers into giving more money to the church.[49] The network was also the first to show the footage of what became known as the kicking of the saint incident.
On September 27, 2007, Rede Globo's rival, Rede Record, launched Brazil's first free-to-view 24-hour news channel on terrestrial television, Record News. Two days before the launch, the Vice-President of Organizações Globo, Evandro Guimarães, went to Brasilia to meet government officials, including the Communications Minister, Hélio Costa, accusing Record Network of owning two television networks, Rede Record and Record News, inside the city of São Paulo, in violation of Brazilian law. Record attacked Globo in an editorial in its national news broadcast, Jornal da Record, accusing Globo of trying to save its monopoly on media and news, and claimed that Globo was "afraid" of Record News.[50] In its response, Record cited Globo's past controversies and the network's supportive relationship with Brazil's Military Dictatorship (1964-1985).[11][51]

You can now set the following.
- Profile picture
- Team logo
- League logo
thekingofsecond Aug 31 '09
The team logos are too small....can't see them (except on the team home page).
Any chance of making them larger?
Chiefdustin Sep 01 '09
At least in the "Box Score" screen it would be nice to see them the same size as on the "Team" page.
Chiefdustin Aug 25 '09
Nice addition and you implemented it well, but I think during the "Fantasy Matchup Box Score", the logos should be larger more like a game time update screen would look.
smcndfan Aug 20 '09
No matter which picture I use my logo shows up as a 1/2" x 1/2" square. Does everyones look like this?
ssuperflash Aug 20 '09
Yes. If you go to your profile or team, the pictures will look much larger.
The-Dark-Knight Aug 20 '09
I have problems loading up a gif. Size is 800x600px /28.09 KB (28767 Bytes). I've been told it's not a valid format.
The-Dark-Knight Aug 20 '09
Ok, did it. It's not animated. Loading up from PC worked. Before I tried to get it from our website. It's password protected. Maybe that was the problem.
Thx fleafounder
DaSOBCommish Aug 20 '09
any way you can up the 250kb maximum to like 500-1000? I'm kinda limited on what i can do with the league logo! After minimizing the size to get it under 250kb its very hard to make out the logo! Any way you can up it just a notch :)
FantasyGuru1965 Aug 20 '09
Can you say what you'll increase itto, so we can start incorporating that size into our designs...?
oosterhouse Aug 20 '09
Nice, would love to see them a bit bigger on main and scoreboard pages but cool stuff.

Crunchy muesli that the whole family will adore. Beats any store bought Muesli hands down and much cheaper too. PS: If you enjoy 'Fast Food' and lots of sweet things, please don't try this recipe. It is quite possibly a recipe that is not designed to appeal to an American palate. It is more of a low fat/low sugar version, a breakfast that will keep you going for hours without the hit of a low blood sugar levels within a short period of time. I find that when I have this for breakfast, I'm not hungry again until 1 - 2 pm. Enjoy!!

- on September 27 2012, 8:47amI just want to add that i have no interest in getting to an argument with a stranger online,life is too short for that.I just feel that some ppl should give R* a bit of a break they do look after their fans,can u imagine activision giving free cod dlc so soon after release? It has occured to me how ever that maybe some ppl are still having serious problems that i am not,thankfully the game is running near perfectly for me now,so maybe some ppl are having a very different max payne experience to myself and thus maybe have a justified reason for complaining...If that is the case you genuinely have my sympathies but you can guarantee that R* will be working hard to rectify the problems...Myself i prefer to spend my evenings playing MP3 rather than posting on the msg boards...
- on September 27 2012, 9:21am@KinkyAfro17 Not going to carry it on because you are bang on with life's too short! And i do agree with alot of what you said but i found the way you were writing was aggressive and belittling when it was unnecessary. Alot of people do seem to be having major problems still i for which am one, But hearing that your game is working well means there is hope for us all as i rate this game very highly and look forward to the experience that you are having! In some ways having the newswire is a bad thing as when the game doesn't play well it becomes frustrating and this has become a place to vent that anger for alot of people.
- on September 27 2012, 8:06amoh i give up i refer u to my previous post if u still cant understand what i am saying then im not going to repeat myself...jeez it really isnt rocket science.i said ppl r complaining about very small faults and u then use a clumsy metaphor equating buying an expensive car with no wheels to being a minor fault...
- on September 27 2012, 9:33am@KinkyAfro17 And yes the wheels comment was an extreme analargy but i was having one of those frustrated moments that i was talking about.
- on September 25 2012, 2:26pmCome on everyone we all have to stop being impatient ungrateful moaners with an over developed sense of entitlement otherwise Bengy7 might get upset again! I think we should all do some sunbathing and join a gym!! lol
@TequilaFire its that pessimistic person again, do you not think Max Payne 4 is a little optimistic? Maybe 7 or 8! lol - on September 25 2012, 2:06pmPayne threshold still not saving on the social club what goodie with that...we need new patches for the servers and gang war players are waiting for a new map for the gang wars
- on September 26 2012, 12:13pm@bigwho1313 Please hit up our Support team when you get a sec so they can help out:
- on September 25 2012, 6:59amI hope the Crew leader board updating problem and connection issues are sorted out in time for Max Payne 4!
In the meantime my reports are still waiting for assignment to a help desk operator!
Oh wait, maybe that doesn't update either!

- on September 23 2012, 9:04pmis there any way you can guys let me know when the leaderboard on SC are fix
- on September 23 2012, 4:14pmyou have obviously not understood a word i wrote of course i have had problems wit this game and when the tech probs were game braking then yes that is something to complain about but when ppl are complaining continuously about the smallest little things then that is whining...and as a demographic in general i would definitely say gamers are a load of impatient ungrateful moaners with an over developed sense of entitlement...its probably the lack of exercise and sunlight...lol...
- on September 24 2012, 9:33am@KinkyAfro17 so people have no right to complain? what may be classed by you as a small problem may be viewed completely differently by someone else.
- on September 24 2012, 2:04pm@KinkyAfro17 oh R* we love you! your amazing! we really don't care about the crashes, not being able to play the game not getting the advertised xp! neither do we care about not getting the dlc content when you said we were! we all just love everything you do and if you would like any more money please do not hesitate to ask! is that better bengy7??
- on September 24 2012, 3:09pm@KinkyAfro17 Over developed sense of entitlement? Is that another way of saying consumer rights?? Are you the sort of person that buys a Ferrari and when you find it has no wheels says heh its ok given the time and effort that they put into this its ok? The momentous task that they have forgone i do not care about the money or the fact that the car will not run? You are "obviously" far too intelligent for the simple minions that are on here so i will retreat back to the hole from which i came...lol...
- on September 24 2012, 3:28pm@KinkyAfro17 You also never mentioned in your last post that you had any problems so of course we wouldn't understand a word you wrote if you are incapable of putting it into words!
- on September 23 2012, 11:13am@_Vagg_ When you get Triple XP in Max Payne 3, there's no message that says you're receiving it. You should just be automatically getting Triple points. If you aren't, please send an email to email@example.com including your console/PC info, country and any other info that might help.
- on September 23 2012, 4:09pm@_Vagg_ lol
- on September 23 2012, 11:38pm@_Vagg_ login, logout. when payne threshold are greyed out you dont get triple xp. are payne thresholds accesible, you get triple xp. simple as that.

"Great Sound at a Great Price"
5.0 starson by flipicanezePros: Visually appealing. Very full spectrum.
Cons: Why they pack such puny wires is beyond me. These will make you think twice about playing MP3's ever again. Just a little boomy.
Summary: I have these hooked up to a Sony STR-DA5300ES and previously had a pair of Sony SS-B3000's hooked up to them which sounded fine but I wanted BIGGER. I was dreaming of having a Klipsch system but I just can't afford it. After reading all the reviews and loving the SS-B3000's I figured why not give them a shot.
After some good adjustments and long term listening, I felt I needed to add on to the boominess complaint.
First impression after removing from carton was "should I had bought this large of a speaker?". After all I live in an apartment. I figured oh well and continued to move things around to make room. After hooking them up I started accessing my computer through my PS3 for music. I discovered that most MP3 flaws are definitely much more defined with these speakers. I started playing some real CD's and my own rips and they sounded fine, in fact better then ever. I did notice some boominess and ended up turning down the bass way down to equalize the sound. Other then that the sound and looks are just fantastic and I look forward to buying myself more Sony speakers.
Updated on Aug 28, 2009
I do like the boominess, but because of the apartment thing, I didn't want the next door neighbors to complain. So far they haven't so the boominess is not groundshaking, but very audible.

Da Vinci's museum-quality turntable
Just when we were about to begin a self-imposed moratorium on highest-end turntables, along comes another one that we simply can't resist.
The luxury edition of the "AAS-Gabriel" from Switzerland's Da Vinci Audio Labs looks more like fine porcelain than a piece of entertainment equipment, accented with 24-karat gold plate. As for its technical performance, Technabob offers this explanation: "The turntable is designed to produce absolutely zero noise or vibration, and goes so far as to completely isolate the pick-up arm from the rest of the player."
Makes sense to us, though that's … Read more

Selling New York Season Two Debuts This Week
Real estate watchers get ready, the second season of HGTV's hit TV show, Selling New York, premieres this Thursday, January 6 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. This season will continue to follow the fast-talking, fast-dealing brokers from CORE, as they navigate high-powered world of buying and selling luxury Manhattan homes. The series' second season features the agents' ongoing efforts to keep sales moving, despite jaded buyers and intense competition in the challenging New York City market. This season has CORE using some unique tactics to sell these luxury properties including inviting an interior designer to project 3-D renderings in each room of a Gramercy Penthouse to show the space's potential and tapping into the artistic community of DUMBO in Brooklyn in order to sell a local penthouse. "Selling New York really captures the hard work and integrity of our agents," notes CORE CEO Shaun Osher. "Season Two will offer viewers not only a glimpse into more spectacular homes, but provides insight into some of the marketing strategies that we employ to close a deal."

It distributes the weight of your binoculars in an X across your shoulders with elastic straps and keeps them secure against your chest for bounce-free wear and easy viewing. You'll feel no pressure on your neck, and the quick-disconnect design makes the caddy convenient to use.
