Bruce Willis Pays $8.8 M. for U2 Bassist Adam Clayton's El Dorado Pad
Last time Bruce Willis tangled with a tower, his Die Hard character escaped from the clutches of a German terrorist group with only his trusty Beretta sidearm. We hope his stay at El Dorado at 300 Central Park West, where he just picked up a co-op apartment, is less eventful.
The four-bedroom spread was rumored to be in contract for $8 million, according to New York Post, but as in The Sixth Sense, there's a twist at the end of this purchase: Mr. Willis and wife Emma ended up paying $8.85 million for the fourth-floor unit, according to city records—a bit over the asking price of $8.695 million. (Even celebrities, it seems, can't buy a co-op without listing their name on the need! Or maybe they just wanted the tax abatement?) Read More

Digital age is testing North Jersey teachers
"It's a problem with adults at work, too," he added. "It's not kid-specific."
Some teachers say they have to do more of a song and dance to keep students engaged than in the past, and must work harder to show how the material is relevant to their lives. "You have to put on a show, and make sure there are multiple activities each period," said Michelle Gaeta, a Pascack Hills math teacher. "It was different with my teachers. You knew you had to pay attention."
Despite teachers' efforts, many students readily acknowledge sneaking off-topic peeks at their screens. Michael Vercellone, a senior and student government president at Pascack Hills, said that although he loved his Science, Ethics, Technology and Society course, and was interested in a class discussion of Japanese doctors torturing World War II prisoners for medical research, he couldn't help reading an irrelevant Wikipedia entry on parasitic botflies.
"It creeped me out. They get inside you," Vercellone said. He dismissed any concern that he might miss important academic points this way. "I can pay attention and do two things at once. Most of us are good at multitasking."
Many teachers say the benefits of laptops in class dramatically outweigh the costs. In an interdisciplinary history and English class, teacher Owen Haveron spoke about how juniors discussing "The Great Gatsby" could quickly check online what it meant to buy stock on margin. "That instant information can really add to conversations," he said.
But for some teachers, that immediate gratification has hazards. The Pew Research Center's survey, done in conjunction with the College Board and National Writing Project, found that 76 percent of 2,067 middle and high school teachers "strongly agree" with the assertion that search engines conditioned students to expect to find information quickly and easily. For many students, it said, research means Googling.
In the survey, only 22 percent of teachers felt students showed patience and determination in looking for information. Pam Schwarz, a social studies teacher at Pascack Hills, said it was hard to teach students persistence and the value of intellectual struggle in the face of Google's ease.
"If they don't get an answer in a minute of searching they get frustrated," she said. She requires that some information on research papers come from "actual books" so students have to hunt through the library for different sources and multiple perspectives.
Most teachers agree that students need more help navigating the Internet wisely, said Kristen Purcell at Pew's Internet & American Life Project, who led focus groups of teachers.
"Students aren't being taught the skills they need to make smart choices, like assessing the quality of the information they see online and being able to recognize bias," she said. Teachers reported that too often, these skills were touched on in a piecemeal fashion, and left to English teachers to fit in when possible. "The education system has to figure out who will teach these skills and when," Purcell said. "We're behind the ball in digital literacy."

Loew's Poli Theatre
591 Main Street,
3 people favorited this theater
Originally opened on August 28, 1920 as the Capitol Theatre, designed by Thomas W. Lamb. It was later known as the Fox-Poli Theatre before finally becoming the Loew's Poli Theatre. Located on Main Street, this was perhaps the most elegant of Hartford's theaters.
The site is now occupied by office buildings.

Here is a picture from the Online Archive of California:
Was this place across the street from the Wadsworth? When I worked at Media Play, there was this man who used to come in and he would talk about how beautiful this place was. Wow, I remember picturing it.
I've been told that my great-grandfather was the stage manager of this theater, I think when the vaudeville circut was still passing through.
Here's an ad from January 5, 1933 for the Poli Capitol. Fanchon & Marco's stage adaptation of "The Desert Song" seemed more of a crowd-puller than the feature movie:

On August 11th, 1939, Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland did a full day of stage appearances at Loew's Poli, trying out songs and routines for their forthcoming engagement at the Capitol Theatre in New York City in conjunction with "The Wizard of Oz." In Hartford, the young stars performed between showings of "Lady Of The Tropics" & "Miracles For Sale":

An interesting item in the November 8, 1913, issue of the trade journal The Moving Picture World says that construction of the foundations for a new Poli theater at Main and Gold streets in Hartford had begun. If that was not the exact location of the Loew's Poli then it must have been very close. The item said that construction was being rushed on the project, in hope that the house could be opened in January, 1914. Architect for the project was Ferdinand Von Beren of the New Haven firm Brown & Von Beren, who did other work for the Poli chain.
I've found no later references to this project in the trade publications. I'm wondering if Loew's Poli was later built on the foundations begun in 1913? Or did something else get built there, or nothing at all? Maybe the city decided it needed part of the site for a street widening project or something of that sort, and the theater project was halted? Perhaps Mr. Poli ran into financial difficulties and the project had to be delayed? A mystery, anyway. Does anybody know the answer?
This photograph of the Fox-Poli Capitol Theatre was taken in 1929 by George Mann of the comedy dance team, Barto and Mann.

Stress is a killer. Research shows that the human physiology under stress, suffers in every aspect of its function. Stress, be it physical, emotional, mental or environmental, shortens life. Protecting against the debilitating effects of stress is essential to optimal health.
Adrenal Function Adrenal Glands function to manage stress and enhance energy. The Adrenal Glands create hormones that affect energy, inflammation, blood pressure, blood sugar, electrolytes and emotions. "Fight or Flight" response, our most basic instinct, is controlled by the Adrenals. Without proper Adrenal Function, life is very difficult to manage.
Adrenal Exhaustion - The Challenge Lifestyle, dietary and environmental factors affect the Adrenal Glands. Exhausted Adrenals deplete the body's vitality and disrupt the body's balance.
Adrenal Strength™ - The Solution Adrenal Strength™ is specifically formulated to Strengthen every aspect of Adrenal function. Adrenal Strength™ also Strengthens the body's natural stress adaptation response. Sensoril® is Ashwagandha extract that manages stress, tension, irritability and energy. Reishi & Cordyceps Organic Optimized Response Mushrooms, grown on antioxidant-rich purple corn, are a remedy for stress and restores the body's vitality and balance. Cold Fusion™ FoodState® Nutrients, such as Pantothenic Acid is an important component in the manufacture of coenzyme A (CoA) and acyl carrier protein (ACP). These critical body chemicals are vital to the manufacture of Adrenal Hormones and red blood cells. Pantothenic Acid stimulates the Adrenal Cortex, increases the production of cortisone and other adrenal hormones. Both CoA and ACP play essential roles in fat and carbohydrate utilization and energy production. [1]
Adaptogens maintain homeostasis, support the Adrenal Glands and Adrenal functions during stress. Adrenal Strength™ contains the premier adaptogens Ashwagandha, Schizandra Berry, Holy Basil, Cultivated American Ginseng, and Astragalus Root.

n order to rule out other conditions, your doctor may start by conducting:
If blood or urine tests detect an abnormal protein — which could indicate amyloidosis — your doctor may order a tissue biopsy to make a definitive diagnosis.
In a tissue biopsy, your doctor uses a needle to remove a small sample of tissue. If your doctor suspects that you have systemic amyloidosis — meaning it affects several parts of your body rather than just one organ — the biopsy may be taken from your abdominal fat, bone marrow, gums, salivary glands, skin or rectum. The sample is then examined under a microscope in a laboratory to check for signs of amyloid. These biopsies are conducted in an outpatient setting with a numbing medication (local anesthetic).
Occasionally, tissue samples may be taken from other parts of your body, such as your heart, liver or kidney, to help diagnose the specific organ affected by amyloidosis. These procedures may require hospitalization.

What are the symptoms of kidney failure?
- In the beginning, kidney failure may be asymptomatic (not producing any symptoms). As kidney function decreases, the symptoms are related to the inability to regulate water and electrolyte balances, to clear waste products from the body, and to promote red blood cell production. Lethargy, weakness, shortness of breath, and generalized swelling may occur. Unrecognized or untreated, life-threatening circumstances can develop.
- Metabolic acidosis, or increased acidity of the body due to the inability to manufacture bicarbonate, will alter enzyme and oxygen metabolism, causing organ failure.
- Inability to excrete potassium and rising potassium levels in the serum (hyperkalemia) is associated with fatal heart rhythm disturbances (arrhythmias) including ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation.
- Rising urea levels in the blood (uremia) can affect the function of a variety of organs ranging from the brain (encephalopathy) with alteration of thinking, to inflammation of the heart lining (pericarditis), to decreased muscle function because of low calcium levels (hypocalcemia).
- Generalized weakness may be due to anemia, a decreased red blood cell count, because lower levels of erythropoietin produced by failing kidneys do not adequately stimulate the bone marrow. A decrease in red cells equals a decrease in oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood, resulting in decreased oxygen delivery to cells for them to do work; therefore, the body tires quickly. As well, with less oxygen, cells more readily use anaerobic metabolism (an=without + aerobic=oxygen) leading to increased amounts of acid production that cannot be addressed by the already failing kidneys.
- As waste products build in the blood, loss of appetite, lethargy, and fatigue become apparent. This will progress to the point where mental function will decrease and coma may occur.
- Because the kidneys cannot address the rising acid load in the body, breathing becomes more rapid as the lungs try to buffer the acidity by blowing off carbon dioxide. Blood pressure may rise because of the excess fluid, and this fluid can be deposited in the lungs, causing congestive heart failure.

Rasputin biography
Grigori Rasputin was born into a peasant family in Siberia, Russia, around 1869. After failing to become a monk, Rasputin became a wanderer and eventually entered the court of Czar Nicholas II because of his alleged healing powers. Known for his prophetic powers, he became a favorite of the Nicholas's wife, Alexandra Feodorovna, but his political influence was small. He became swept up in the events of the Russian Revolution, and met a brutal death at the hands of assassins in 1916.
Early Life
Born to a Siberian peasant family around 1869, Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin received little schooling, and probably never learned to read or write. In his early years, some people of his village said he possessed supernatural powers, while others cite examples of extreme cruelty. For a time, it was believed his name "Rasputin" meant "licentious" in Russian. Historians now believe that "Rasputin" meant "where two rivers meet," a phrase that describes an area from where he was born in Siberia.
Rasputin entered the Verkhoture Monestery in Russia with the intention of becoming a monk, but left shortly thereafter, presumably to get married. At age 19, he wed Proskovia Fyodorovna, and they later had three children. In his early 20s, he traveled to Greece and the Middle East, and presumably made several pilgrimages to the Holy Land.
Friend of the Imperial Family
In 1906, Rasputin, known by many as the "mad monk," arrived in St. Petersburg with a reputation as a mystic and faith healer. Two years later, he was introduced to Russian Czar Nicholas II and his wife, Alexandra Feodorovna, who were seeking help for their sickly son, Alexis. Rasputin quickly gained their confidence by seemingly "curing" the boy of hemophilia. This action won him the passionate support of Alexandra.
Between 1906 and 1914, various politicians and journalists used Rasputin's association with the imperial family to undermine the dynasty's credibility and push for reform. Rasputin helped their efforts by claiming to be the Tzarina's advisor. Accounts of his lascivious behavior emerged in the press and contempt grew among state officials. In truth, his influence at this time was limited to the health of Alexis.
As Russia entered World War I, Rasputin predicted that calamity would befall the country. Nicholas II took command of the Russian Army in 1915, and Alexandra took responsibility for domestic policy. Always Rasputin's defender, she dismissed ministers who were said to be suspicious of the "mad monk." Government officials tried to warn her of Rasputin's undue influence, but she continued to defend him, giving the impression that Rasputin was her closest advisor.
Contempt for Rasputin grew among political rivals of Czar Nicholas. On December 29, 1916, a group of conspirators, including the czar's first cousin, Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich, and Prince Felix Yusupov, invited Rasputin to Yusoupov's palace, and fed him wine and cakes laced with cyanide. But the poison seemed to have no effect.
Baffled but not deterred, the conspirators repeatedly beat and finally shot Rasputin several times. He was wrapped in a carpet and thrown into the Neva River, only to be discovered three days later. An autopsy revealed that there was water in Rasputin's lungs at the time of his death, and it was concluded that he died by drowning.
Russia and the imperial family had gotten rid of Rasputin, but not his influence. Shortly before his death, Rasputin wrote to Nicholas that if he were killed by government officials, the entire imperial family would be killed by the Russian people. His prophecy came true 15 months later, when the czar, his wife and all of their children were killed by assassins amidst the Russian Revolution.

Does anyone know where to get a hold of a free PL/B compiler, preferably for Linux, but at this point I'm not going to be too choosy. Long story short, there is no God and I need a PL/B compiler.
I just had to Bing it. All I can say is, I wouldn't want to be in your shoes!
Darn. I had been told that the program we were using was heavily modified to work in Linux. I guess I didn't know quite how heavily modified. I had come across Sunbelt PL/B (Initially it was amazing, but not so now, that any business I could find that still supports PL/B has a site that looks like it was created on Geocities) and noticed they have created PL/B .NET or some other horrible abomination. I had held out some hope that perhaps PL/B was still being maintained in the dark recesses of the Internet.
Quote: As you can see, PL/B is important to Sunbelt - but not just from a financial viewpoint. All of our employees are dedicated to the language and to our customers.

It's cute how you registered just to say that. Go take your Metamucil and go back to your Barcalounger, where mere contrivances like "having the computer do the work for you" are just scary whispers muttered by those damn youngsters.

When it comes to high-speed Internet, rural North Carolinians are in the Stone Age. And a bill that passed the Senate this week, S 1209, will keep them there.
After a lengthy debate, the controversial—and rewritten—broadband bill passed the Senate Monday night 41-7. Democrat Bob Atwater was the only Triangle senator to oppose the bill. Atwater represents several rural areas in Chatham and Lee counties, where many residents remain stuck with dial-up Internet service.
The bill now proceeds to the House.
Sponsored by state Sen. David Hoyle, D-Gaston, the euphemistically titled "Study Competing Systems/ Interim Debt" places a 14-month moratorium on cities and towns that want to build their own high-speed broadband networks. While these municipalities could technically develop a plan for such a network, they could not apply for funding for the project until August 2011, after the next legislative session. Yet, without funding, it would be unlikely that the cities and towns could afford to work on a plan or feasibility study.
The bill establishes a 12-member task force composed of representatives from cities, telecommunications companies and the North Carolina League of Municipalities.
Five existing broadband systems (Wilson, Salisbury, Davidson, Mooresville and Morganton) are exempt from the moratorium.
"I don't believe that government at any level should unfairly or fairly compete with the free enterprise system," Hoyle said during the bill's second reading, June 3. ...
Sen. William Purcell, a Democrat from Laurinburg, which is in the southern part of the state, opposed the bill, saying "Another year will not serve any useful purpose."
The bill hurts many rural communities that the telecommunications companies have not served with high-speed Internet. It is expensive—and not profitable—for telecom companies to go into these rural areas, so cities and towns, frustrated with the wait, want to build these networks.
If a city or town chooses to request approval for financing—aware it couldn't be approved until at least August 2011—it still must hold a public hearing and give competitors (the telecom companies) 15 days' notice. ...
The battle over S 1209 began before the 2009 legislative session, says Kelli Kukura, director of government affairs at the North Carolina League of Municipalities. At that time, Kukura said Hoyle met with representatives from telecommunications companies to craft the bill.
Meanwhile, Hoyle also received $6,000 in campaign contributions in the 2009 election cycle from the political action committee of Time Warner, one of the bill's proponents. He received $500 from the Sprint/ Nextel PAC and $2,250 from the Parker, Poe, Adams and Bernstein PAC. The law firm lobbies and advises clients in a number of industries, including telecommunications. Hoyle has denied the contributions influenced the legislation.
Originally, the bill mandated cities and towns to hold a public vote on any broadband projects that were funded by general obligation bonds, while requiring the municipalities to use such bonds. Referenda would have been required, even if cities and towns wanted to upgrade systems, refinance or add customers.
These requirements threatened to wipe out all broadband projects and place a "devastating blow to municipal broadband," said Kukura.
After it became clear last month that the bill would fail if it contained that language, it was stripped out of the measure and replaced with requirements for a temporary moratorium and a task force.
The moratorium was inserted, said Sen. Clodfelter, so the task force would study the issue without "noise." ...

A Fireside Chat with Herbie Hancock
" There is this music called electronica and a lot of the young artists rediscovered Sextant. I didn't even know that was happening. "
All About Jazz: "Exploration leads to discovery" is the intro to your website. During your explorations, what have you discovered?
Herbie Hancock: One of the most important things is that what I am is not a musician. That's what I do. That's not what I am. What I am is a human being and what I do is play music.
AAJ: Rage against the machine.
AAJ: You have long championed the virtues of technology. But as advancements in technology have afforded a segment of the populous with an improved quality of life, technology has also left those less fortunate behind.
HH: Yeah, there are people and groups that are addressing those issues and fighting for those issues. One of the important things about everyone having access to the technology is that there is a tendency for people to think that the have nots are a charity case and they need help. There are individuals in the have nots group that could have very important ideas for our survival. You never know who the next great person is going to be, but if they don't have access to the technology, we won't have access to what they can bring to the table, which maybe something that we desperately need.
AAJ: Was it an irreversible lapse in public relations for the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) to sue a 12- year-old?
HH: Yeah, and I thought they represented the industry in general, meaning the artists and the record labels. I found out, in fact, they only represent the record labels. Although, they have been a proponent against the idea of stealing music that is supposed to be bought and paid for so that everyone who contributed their time and efforts can get paid. I think they were coming from the wrong place, first of all. They didn't really represent the artists. Some of the artists wouldn't go to Washington and fight that battle. I didn't and I told them I wouldn't because I don't think they're coming from the right place. The idea of biting off the hand that feeds you is not a good idea. It is the record companies' fault that the whole thing started in the first place because they were too self-absorbed and blind to the technology. Napster came in existence and then others after that.
AAJ: Can the recording industry stop the bleeding? The motion picture industry has a profitable satellite with DVDs.
HH: The motion picture industry is the next victim. The only thing that stands in the way of them being victims right now is the speed factor and storage. It takes too long to download a movie.
We know that that's going to change and going to change quickly. First of all, one thing that has happened with this whole business is that the business practices of the record labels have been exposed. That's a good thing. They have not been doing justice ever since CDs came out. They were supposed to change the price of CDs once they caught on, but they never did. I asked them for years why they charged so much for CDs and they always came up with some excuses that were bullshit. They have been ripping the public off for a long time.
AAJ: Do you approve of the hip-hop community sampling your work?
HH: We get paid for that. For example, Janet Jackson's new record has a sample from one of my records.
AAJ: Aside from Mongo Santamaria, who has justly interpreted your work?
HH: I don't look at it that way. If someone takes my tune and interprets it in a way that they see fit, I am happy about it.
AAJ: So you were pleased with Us3's "Cantaloop."
HH: Oh, yeah. When I first heard it, I was in Japan. I went to this club in Japan and I remember it was downstairs in some basement. As I am walking down the stairs, I hear "Cantaloupe Island," or so I thought. But I didn't hear the last two chords. I thought a DJ was mixing it with something else live and that somebody was rapping on top of it. Then it dawned on me that someone had told me that they did a rap version of "Cantaloupe Island." I thought it was pretty cool. I will give you another example, Fred. Years ago, what was her name? Lady. The song was called "Groove Is in the Heart."
AAJ: Deee-Lite.
HH: Deee-Lite, that's the group. I was told that somebody had sampled something from the Blow-Up soundtrack that I had done. I had never heard it. And then one day, my daughter and I were getting in my car and the radio was on and she said, "Dad, that's that song." She pointed it out because I didn't even remember the song. I had to go and get the record to remember.
AAJ: Would you revisit the Sextant band?
HH: There is this music called electronica and a lot of the young artists rediscovered Sextant. I didn't even know that was happening. Somebody had to point it out to me. I put a band together called Future 2 Future and we were in the electronica area. Sextant was a very raw sound and it grew out of the times. It was postavant- garde and the whole avant-garde area was a big underground thing happening in the '60s and had a lot of influence on the mainstream of jazz. For example, in the Miles Davis group I played in, I remember one concert that we played when I was with Miles and after the concert, Miles leaned over to Tony Williams and said, "I sounded like Don Cherry didn't I?" And he was pleased. Miles was pleased because he was checking it out too. So I haven't had to bring that band back as a reunion band. When I think of reunion bands, a lot of times, I think these are has beens trying to recreate something they did at a certain time and that time is not now.
AAJ: Of late, you have been on tour with Michael Brecker and Roy Hargrove (Directions in Music), celebrating the music of Miles Davis and John Coltrane.
HH: They were born the same year and so we were celebrating what would be their 75th birthdays. That was an idea that was generated by my concert agent. Miles has been a major innovator through several generations. That is kind of a no-brainer for people to realize that. For John Coltrane, during the time that he was with Miles and then particularly when he left Miles, he contributed a whole different kind of openness to the music and added a spiritual essence to the music scene. Not that Miles' music wasn't spiritual, but John's was in almost an hypnotic way. During the short time that he was around, because he wasn't around that long, he was a major contributor, especially to saxophone players. Michael Brecker, for example, credits John Coltrane for the reason that he plays saxophone. He wouldn't be a musician had it not been for John Coltrane's music.
AAJ: In June, you headline the Playboy Jazz Festival.
HH: That is a quartet with Wayne Shorter and Brian Blade and Dave Holland. We are looking forward to it.
AAJ: You are continuing your association with the Thelonious Monk Institute, of which you are a board member.
HH: Right, I am the Chairman now. The overall vision is the promotion of jazz and jazz education, and to grow a new audience for jazz, and also to work towards the continued evolution of the music. We have a lot of different programs going. One of them including jazz as a part of American history in elementary schools and middle schools because it should be. Any German knows who Beethoven is and Bach. Most of the people in Europe know who their great composers are without having to study music. They are included in the cultural aspect of the history their nations and we don't do that for jazz in nation and it really should be. We also have a performance area too. We have a college band selected from around the world. Every year, we put a band together and they are together for two years. Each year, the groups that we put together blow our minds in their growth and in their development. It is really amazing. The bands are so good they're scary.
AAJ: There is hope.
HH: Exactly.

I had to work late while troubleshooting something. While waiting for a phone call that I knew was at least 15-20 minutes away I decided to go up on the roof to see if I could spot the Peregrine's that have been very vocal the last few days. Apparently I peaked their interest as soon as I popped out onto the roof as they really starting chattering. The 1st one stayed on his perch and "kept guard" while the 2nd one took flight for what appeared to be a recon mission to see what this was on the roof below. (friend, foe, a large meal?) I got that call I was expecting and had to go but I was able to capture a few photo's of them. :)

LibraryThing Review
User Review - LibraryThingThis is a moderately interesting book, in that there are wonderful nuggets of information sprinkled across a sea of rather bland prose -- and this is from a devoted linguaphile! It's probably better to read it as you're reading other books instead of all at once. I got it cheap, so I can't complain about the price. I just wish that the authors had focused in on the more interesting words rather than include so many dull ones.
Review: Word Mysteries and Histories: From Quiche to Humble Pie

One has to rescue a failing cable network while another has to turn Twitter's global audience into piles of cash. One is banking on Johnny Depp to save his bacon while a fourth must succeed George Lucas.
TheWrap counts down 14 executives who have a lot on the line in 2013.
DAVID ELLISON Skydance Productions David's sister Megan drew headlines in 2012 for bankrolling directors like Paul Thomas Anderson ("The Master") and Kathryn Bigelow ("Zero Dark Thirty"). Also armed with endless cash reserves, David, the eldest son of Oracle billionaire Larry Ellison, can steal the spotlight in 2013 by delivering to Paramount an ambitious slate of movies. His company is producing and co-financing four of the studio's priciest releases next year -- zombie film "World War Z" (starring Brad Pitt), "G.I. Joe: Retaliation," "Star Trek Into Darkness" and a reboot of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan films. "Star Trek" is expected to be a hit. The rest will help determine Ellison's reputation.
TED SARANDOS Netflix Chief Creative Officer Netflix CEO Reed Hastings weathered a massive storm over the past year and a half after a series of corporate miscues unnerved both investors and customers. (Quikster anyone?) Now Netflix's stock price is stable, and the company set a digital landmark by securing exclusive rights to stream future new releases from Disney. To be the next HBO, it needs original, exclusive content, and that's where Sarandos comes in. Netflix will debut several original series this year, led by "House of Cards" and the reboot of "Arrested Development." If those succeed, Sarandos can complete the Netflix revival.

NANCY TELLEM Microsoft Entertainment and Digital Media President Speaking of original, exclusive content… Technology companies are realizing they still need great movies, TV shows and videos to lure users. That content can be expensive to buy, so firms like Amazon and Microsoft are testing the waters of creation. That's where Tellem, the former CBS executive, enters the picture. Microsoft has charged her with developing shows specifically for Xbox, one of Microsoft's most popular products and a staple of living rooms across the nation. Microsoft, a software power, has not found a huge audience for its hardware -- the Windows Phone and Surface tablet. It needs a win somewhere else.

BRUCE ROSENBLUM, KEVIN TSUJIHARA, JEFF ROBINOV Warner Bros. Executives Who wants to run a studio? This troika will compete for the top job at Warner Bros., which Barry Meyer vacates at the end of 2013. TV chief Rosenblum appears to be the favorite at the turn, while home entertainment leader Tsujihara has the most digital savvy. Film chief Robinov has presided over a series of blockbuster franchises but needs a strong year at the box office to help his cause. His studio has an ambitious roster of movies coming out in 2013 -- "The Great Gatsby," "Pacific Rim," "Man of Steel," a new "Hangover" and more. But will those tip the scale in favor of Robinov?

ADAM BAIN Twitter Chief Revenue Officer Twitter became ubiquitous in the past year, reaching a diverse audience of drunken celebrities, rambunctious teenagers, savvy media executives and, most importantly, television viewers. Bain, a former News Corp. executive, has laid the foundation for a successful advertising business. Now it needs to grow. Quickly. Twitter is expected to go public in the near future, and if it wants to convince people it's worth $100 billion, it needs real revenue. Facebook didn't have it, and took a beating. Can Bain bring bring in the goods?
JERRY BRUCKHEIMER Producer Studios have humbled most of Hollywood's biggest producers over the past few years, cutting their overhead deals or ending relationships all together. Many view Bruckheimer at the one producer inured from financial pressures thanks to a breathtaking track record. However, "The Lone Ranger" could change that. The producer has already wrangled with Disney over the budget for the film, prompting the studio to temporarily shut it down in August 2011. They've since finished the movie, but the fate of this multimillion-dollar project could have a serious impact on Bruckheimer's future.

CHRIS ALBRECHT Starz CEO Can the former head of HBO finally go head-to-head with HBO? Showtime has been gaining on HBO thanks to shows like "Homeland," "Dexter" and "Shameless." What about Starz? Like Showtime, the pay cable channel has tried to create a string of original hits to lure new subscribers. So far, it hasn't succeeded. "Boss" won Kelsey Grammer a Golden Globe, but never found a larger audience and was canceled in late November. Liberty last year announced plans to spin off Starz as a separate company. A hit or two would make it even more attractive. One possibility? A 1960s series, "Crime," from "The Departed" writer William Monahan. It's in development.
THOMAS TULL Legendary Pictures CEO Tull runs one of the fastest-growing companies in Hollywood, a vital partner to Warner Bros. that will unleash its biggest slate of movies yet in 2013. Legendary has produced and financed seven movies due for release, a group more diverse than its typical Comic Con-centric fare. Tull personally produced passion project "42," the tale of Jackie Robinson, while also getting behind Guillermo Del Toro's robot porno, "Pacific Rim." New editions of "The Hangover" and "300" debut as well. Though Legendary is expected to extend its partnership with Warner Bros., it has increased its focus on in-house development. Has it worked? We'll see in 2013.

JEFF ZUCKER President of CNN Worldwide Other news outlets have treated CNN as a punching bag for years now because of its low ratings. Both Fox News and MSNBC draw more viewers thanks to their partisan television. Fairly or not, CNN's down-the-middle, straitlaced approach strikes many as boring.It's prime-time shows have been so unsuccessful that it airs a repeat of its one star, Anderson Cooper, at 10 p.m. Zucker, ousted from his perch atop NBCUniversal not three years ago, is supposed to be the savior. Will he poach Ann Curry? Will he give Soledad O'Brien a prime time show?
BOB GREENBLATT NBC Entertainment Chairman Greenblatt stunned television pundits in 2012, propelling last-place NBC out of the cellar and ahead of all its competitors for the beginning of this season. Now he has a new challenge: sustaining momentum. "Sunday Night Football," television's most-watched show, is over. There are no Olympics in 2013. "The Voice" remains on the schedule, but will it be enough?
KATHLEEN KENNEDY Lucasfilm President OK, OK, so the first new "Star Wars" movie doesn't open until 2015. We're still talking about a woman in charge of the future of "Star Wars" "Indiana Jones" franchises who has to oversee production of new movies, roller-coasters, web series and action figures. Kennedy has long been one of the most respected producers in Hollywood, but now she takes a job held by George Lucas for the last three decades. Will the force be with her?
???? Paramount Animation Chief Paramount has a gaping hole where its animation business used to be. A year ago, it had David Stainton running an in-house division and prominent supplier in DreamWorks Animation. Now? Stainton resigned, and DreamWorks Animation, second only to Pixar in animation prowess, is at Fox. Paramount has lined up several new features, relying on everyone from J.J. Abrams to corporate sister Nickelodeon. The division may be without a formal leader -- Paramount Film Group chief Adam Goodman has taken over direct oversight -- but will the studio fill Stainton's vacant office?
