Westminster Outlook: North of the border, BAE builds an array of warships for the Ministry of Defence
Saturday 23 October 2010
A nuclear-powered submarine which ran aground on a shingle bank, embarrassing the Royal Navy, will be checked for damage today.
Friday 22 October 2010
BAE Systems has warned that its growth in 2010 will be weaker than expected following the Government's review of defence and security spending. The company plans to work with the Ministry of Defence to address the implications of the changes, but said it anticipated some modest impact on the performance of its UK business this year. It has also reduced its financial planning assumptions for the following years.
Thursday 21 October 2010
Takeover gossip was limited yesterday as the market waited for the Government's Comprehensive Spending Review (CSR). Yet shares in the insurance group Jardine Lloyd Thompson soared early as rumours of a potential bid battle escalated.
Tuesday 19 October 2010
A civilian navigator died after his ejector seat "detached and fell" from an RAF Tornado as he flew upside down during a test flight, an inquest heard today.
Tuesday 21 September 2010
BAE Systems unveiled a multimillion-pound deal to buy part of an American intelligence business yesterday in a move that will see former CIA and FBI workers join the company.
Wednesday 15 September 2010
Outsourcers were in favour, with Logica climbing higher, as fears of cutbacks and delays to Government contracts began to fade last night.
Tuesday 14 September 2010
BAE systems is looking for buyers for its Platform Solution aircraft avionics business headquartered in New York.
Sunday 12 September 2010
Defence giant BAE Systems is hoping to raise $2bn (£1.3bn) through the sale of one of its US businesses, it was reported today.
Friday 10 September 2010
Workers at BAE Systems were said to be in "shock" yesterday after the defence giant unveiled plans to cut hundreds of jobs. Unions said almost 1,000 jobs at five military factories and other sites would be lost in the latest cull, warning that the cuts could be the "tip of the iceberg".
Thursday 09 September 2010
Workers at manufacturing giant BAE Systems were said to be in "shock" tonight after the firm delivered a huge blow by unveiling plans to axe hundreds of jobs.
Tuesday 17 August 2010
Do you really want to be investing in companies whose major customer has promised to cut orders "ruthlessly and without sentiment"?
Wednesday 28 July 2010
Britain will have to earn job-creating trade deals with India rather than relying on historic links and "sentiment," David Cameron will say today.
Monday 26 July 2010
For a thoroughly modern politician, David Cameron appears to have some strangely antiquated ideas about how the modern global economy works. This week, the Prime Minister will board a plane to India in the company of scores of senior British businessmen. At the other end, much flesh will be pressed and the merits of British firms loudly trumpeted. A new defence contract for BAE Systems is expected to be brandished. This is the traditional way of conducting trade policy. It is also thoroughly outdated. If there is business to be done between Britain and India, the private sectors of each country are perfectly capable of getting on and doing it without politicians of either nation smoothing the way.
Monday 26 July 2010
Monday 26 July 2010
BAE systems has teamed up with the wave energy developer Aquamarine Power in an almost £1m project to produce more reliable alternative energy sources for the UK. BAE and Aquamarine put up £450,000, to match a grant from the Technology Strategy Board. The funding is to support the development of the commercial production of Aquamarine's Oyster wave energy converter.

Next month's Games with Gold lineup is among the service's best yet.
Xbox 360 owners who are subscribed to Xbox Live Gold can nab Monaco: What's Yours is Mine for free from September 1 - 15, followed by Halo: Reach from September 16 - 30, while Xbox One owners will have all of September to download Super Time Force.
Shame about the Xbox 360 version of Super Time Force not being included here, but if you're thinking of playing it there I'd recommend going for the Ultra PC release instead.

Not a bad haul. Sportsfriends is great for local co-op. PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale probably is, too. I've been meaning to go back and play it since they added Kat from Gravity Rush. And TxK is a real good Vita game. Hoard (PS3) is, uh, probably okay.
Joe Danger is hitting the Vita, too, along with Velocity 2X (PS4, Vita). Both are going to be free with PS+ right at their launch.view full story + comments
As part of my slowly-get-out-of-bed routine this morning, I glanced at my inbox and was delighted to see an email pop up on my phone about ChAIR. Could this be it? The announcement of another Shadow Complex? We've been waiting years for a follow-up!
Nah. It was just a press release for some more Infinity Blade stuff.
The studio is preparing its final update for Infinity Blade III, a free download dubbed Kingdom Come. It'll hit the App Store on September 4, 2014. There's going to be a new environment, more items and weapons, a dragon -- the usual. ChAIR has also put out a recap of the series, viewable above, with some of this new content featured here and there.
I liked the original Infinity Blade fine, but I'm eager to see this team move on to another project.view full story + comments
Originally created for the 7DFPS Challenge in 2012, Cloudbase Prime is an attractive-looking low-poly FPS platformer by Tyrus Peace and is currently available for free in its 0.2 alpha state. You can download it here.
Set on a floating mining platform above a gas giant, you'll be tasked with destroying robotic enemies using your energy cannon and the Architect: a gizmo that can be used to manipulate the hex-based tiles that the mining platform is constructed from.
The game reminds me a bit of Drunken Robot Pornography, and that's definitely not a bad thing in my book: It's got giant robots, high-flying platforming and first-person shooter elements. Oh yeah, did I mention that it's free?
For an idea of how the game plays, take a look at the developer's Walker Mech combat footage in the video above.view full story + comments
Naughty Dog has been working to address issues with long wait times in The Last of Us' multiplayer matchmaking and while progress has been made on that front, there's more left to do.
"Over the last two weeks, we've discovered that the most significant improvements may come from working with other teams at PlayStation to make updates to some of the existing matchmaking libraries," the studio wrote. As such, it's hard for the teams to nail down a time frame but we're likely looking at a matter of weeks, not months, until the necessary fixes are deployed.
With that mess still ongoing, Naughty Dog has decided that its next pair of maps for Factions will be released for free on PlayStation 3 and PS4. Not all bad news!

As part of a 2K sale on Steam this weekend, the publisher is giving folks a chance to play Borderlands 2 for free on Steam today through Sunday at 1:00pm Pacific.
Borderlands 2 has also been marked down to $4.99 to own, or $9.99 if you want the Game of the Year edition and its numerous DLC packs. Elsewhere in the sale, there are discounts on Civilization V ($7.49), BioShock Infinite ($7.49), and XCOM: Enemy Unknown ($7.49).
Oh, and The Bureau: XCOM Declassified is $3.99. What, no takers?view full story + comments
David O'Toole, developer of 2x0ng, has just released his newest game, The Testament of the White Cypress. Inspired by games like Ultima and Zork, Cypress follows a monk named Geoffrey as he explores a strange and dangerous world while getting caught up in something much bigger, which maybe includes some time travel? Cypress is a one man show, as David O'Toole did everything. The watercolor art, original soundtrack, writing, and the programming are 100% David which makes this game a labor of love through and through.
The game is a blast to explore and a great way to enjoy an afternoon. David considers this to be episode 1 of a "three episode thing," and if people show interest, more episodes will come. So give it a go! Make sure you read everything, especially the tutorial in the beginning. You won't get an objectives screen blatantly telling you what to do, so be sure to pick up on the hints from the various writings you encounter.
Oh, and if you enjoy it, don't forget to give it a vote on Steam Greenlight!view full story + comments

Through Origin's Game Time program, it's currently possible to play Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare and Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning for free -- for a limited time, of course. Simply download either game and, once you launch it, the clock will begin counting down.
For Garden Warfare, which I cannot recommend enough -- seriously, now's your chance! -- Origin users are getting unlimited access for 72 hours, while Kingdoms of Amalur is restricted to 48 hours of free play. It's unclear how long these offers will remain valid, so I wouldn't wait too long if you're interested. Something to play over the weekend, perhaps.view full story + comments
This week's free new update for Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare adds Suburbination mode, a capture-and-defend game type in the same vein as Battlefield's Conquest and Call of Duty's Domination. Gardens & Graveyards is still where it's at, but this is a decent distraction.
The DLC also includes the Plasma Peashooter, who is playable immediately without the need to spend in-game coins; the Crash Course map; more stuff for Garden Ops including the vampiric Baron Von Bats boss and the Treasure Yeti; and a bunch of "bling" customization items.
Garden Warfare has become my go-to "unwinding" game and I don't see that changing anytime soon. Finding an annoying hiding place as the zombie soldier and picking off plants is way too satisfying to stop. You're in for a treat next week, PlayStation gamers.view full story + comments

EA is back with another Origin Game Time promotion following that one for Titanfall. Those of you on PC can claim a week of free access to Battlefield 4 -- just add the game to your Origin library before August 14. The clock doesn't start until you launch the title, at which point you'll then have one full week (168 hours) to play as much or as little as you'd like.
This offer includes full access to the single-player campaign (don't feel bad about skipping it) and multiplayer, and any progress you make will be retained should you choose to buy Battlefield 4 afterward. Pretty good way to get your fill without committing.
Tempted to log back in after a long absence. Maybe I'll stand a chance now.view full story + comments
The next free game in EA's On the House promo for Origin is the classic space combat sim Wing Commander III: Heart of the Tiger. Add it to your account and its yours to keep.
This is definitely something to check out for folks who are into Star Citizen and want to revisit Chris Roberts' past work. It's unquestionably dated -- the game originally released in 1994 and features full-motion video cut scenes -- but not so dated that it can be enjoyed today.
I mean, if nothing else, you'll get a kick out of seeing live-action Mark Hamill and Malcom McDowell.view full story + comments
Free Lives' Broforce is a run-and-gun game with a parody-filled cast of action movie heroes. Indianna Brones, Rambro, Snake Broskin -- the list goes on. It's all too perfect, then, that this team has collaborated with The Expendables 3 for a free promotion game.
This is The Expendabros, out now on Steam.
All told, there are seven playable characters based on the film and ten missions. Pretty dang cool. Even if you aren't into The Expendables, this should be a good taste of the full-fledged Broforce.view full story + comments

With a labor contract set to expire for West Coast dockworkers, retailers aren't taking any chances for key delivery of their back-to-school and holiday shipments.
Those are the two top-selling periods in the retail industry calendar.
With a labor contract set to expire for West Coast dockworkers, retailers aren't taking any chances for key delivery of their back-to-school and holiday shipments.
Those are the two top-selling periods in the retail industry calendar.
According to the monthly Global Port Tracker report, released Friday by the National Retail Federation and Hackett Associates, May import volume rose 5.8 compared with the prior year, while June is expected to see a 7.5 percent increase from 2013.
Read MoreWest Coast dockworker talks a tense time
NRF noted that these are both "unusually high numbers not normally seen until later in the summer or fall."
"[It's] a sign that retailers have begun bringing imported merchandise into the country early because of the uncertainty of what could happen when the labor contract expires."
Read MoreSummer is here! Time to obsess over Christmas
Negotiations between the Pacific Maritime Association, which represents workers who operate port terminals and shipping lines, and the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, which represents dockworkers, started last month. The contract expires June 30.
Britt Beemer, founder of America's Research Group, said last week that it's particularly important for retailers to get their orders in early as the holiday shopping season shifts earlier, thus causing retailers to battle for a share of consumers' wallets sooner.
Read MoreRetail crosses a line with back-to-school deals
According to Beemer's research, shoppers who enter a particular store for its Black Friday sales have a 70 percent chance of returning two or three more times that season to buy more goods. If they don't, there's a 30 percent chance they won't come at all.
The last major shutdown for the West Coast ports happened in 2002, when they were shuttered for 10 days.

The National Gamekeepers' Organisation
Welcome to The National Gamekeepers' Organisation. We represent the gamekeepers of England and Wales. We defend and promote gamekeeping, help gamekeepers and ensure high standards throughout the profession.
Join The National Gamekeepers Organisation
Responding today to the announcement by the police of a new national firearms security campaign, the NGO commented:
The National Gamekeepers' Organisation (NGO) unequivocally supports the need for licensed firearms to be kept safely and in accordance with the law at all times.
The organisation will always play its part in urging vigilance surrounding firearms security.
The recent addition to the Home Office Guidance allowing unannounced visits by the police to check that certificate holders' guns are being held securely is balanced by a requirement that such visits are intelligence-led and risk-based. The Guidance requires that the reasons for the visits are made clear at the time they take place.
Join the National Gamekeepers Organisation
Over 16,000 gamekeepers, supporters and trade companies have already joined the National Gamekeepers' Organisation. Their membership ensures the promotion and defence of gamekeeping, as well as giving them important NGO members benefits.
About The National Gamekeepers Organisation
The NGO was founded in 1997 by a group of gamekeepers who felt that their profession was threatened by public misunderstanding and poor representation. Today, we have over 16,000 gamekeeper and supporter members.

Jeep Off-Roadby Tom Morr
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Off-road adventure driving and competition is a hot sport. People love to drive their vehicles and put them to the test. The biggest player on the trails is the Jeep.
With Jeep Off-Road, off-road journalist Tom Morr teams with photographer Ken Brubaker to cover the entire family of Jeeps in every possible situation using all kinds of equipment and techniques. The book is full of amazing photography and great information. Whether a full participant in this exciting activity, or just looking at giving it a try for the first time, you will find Jeep Off-Road is a fantastic look at the world of off-road Jeeping.
*Over 250 color photos
*Trivia, tech specs, and more
*Off-road action and hot, modified Jeeps
*The new Liberty and Commander, plus all the classic Jeeps
Every aspect of Jeep off-roading--the vehicles, the modifications, the courses, the events, the techniques used by drivers in major competitions, all illustrated with full-color photos.
Long before off-roading took so many drivers off the beaten (or paved) path, Jeep was there. Off-roading is what Jeep was made for, more than 65 years ago, and things have only gotten better. This book shows readers why. Tom Morr, an off-road aficionado, takes readers into every aspect of the sport. The vehicles, the modifications, the courses, the events: it's all here in fascinating detail, illustrated with hundreds of full-color action photos. Morr details techniques that off-road drivers use in major competitions, including insider information about modifications and technical stats. This book has everything a Jeep off-roader--or fan--could hope for. Jeep Off-Road will thrill beginners, enthusiasts, and long-time Jeep off-roaders.

These Freedom Beach poems are examples of Beach poems about Freedom. These are the best examples of Freedom Beach poems written by international PoetrySoup poets
Where cradled canyons sing
Of ebony wood in the forest
There lies a gurgling spring
Where cockcrows sing their chorus
To the melody of singsong birds
There I've concealed my sensuous words
Filled with befitted signs
The saccharine whiff of my designs
Come to me my mortal youth
To the wild realm of your truth
Where nymphs and gnomes abound
For the earth is filled with weeping
And only your tears be found
Where the fogs of night are fountains
Spills of glistened moon ignite
By distant silhouette mountains
We dance with passion of fight
Entwining ancient stance
Mingling hand in hand we dance
Till the mountains smile on high
Near and far we spring
To pursue the realest of dreams
While the world cries at its seams
Anxious in trouble to cling
Come to me my mortal youth
To the wild realm of your truth
Where nymphs and gnomes abound
For the earth is filled with weeping
And only your tears be found
To where the ridges merry make
From the beaks of wooden bright
In sparkly pools the ghouls awake
That scarce to stir our night
We watch for seekers down under
Muttering secrets in their soul
We bid them lucks of shivers
Dipping gently in
From reeds that hide a tear of a foal
Under the gentle rivers
Come to me my mortal youth
To the wild realm of your truth
Where nymphs and gnomes abound
For the earth is filled with weeping
And only your tears be found
Far away she shall ever churn
The taciturn eyed
She'll listen no more to turn
To the working mills beside
Or the scrubbing of the barn
May peace weave in her song
She shall wave in the yarn
To a haven known as Belong
Come to me my mortal youth
To the wild realm of your truth
Where nymphs and gnomes abound
For the earth is filled with weeping
And only your tears be found
For she comes, the mortal youth
To the wild realm of her truth
Where nymphs and gnomes abound
For the earth is filled with weeping
And only her tears be found
There is a house on the cliff's edge,
Around a quiet, unmarked shoreline
At night, the tide lifts high against a foggy moon
In the morning, gloomy clouds settle with the sea
At times, not even the birds are seen or heard
The house is left to nature's caress
Home-crafted seashell chimes sway and sing with the wind
Crushed sand dollars lie together on the back porch
The shells were once whole, collected by the former owners
Long gone are they now, smiling with the moon
The owners are the very sound of the ocean spray,
Striking the rocks, announcing the cool dawn of day
They are not the dark, empty rooms,
The rooms that nobody thinks of as they go about their lives
The quiet owners are long gone—thought of only by one
A stillborn legacy about as tiresome as the sun,
When the clouds crisp out its beams . . .
A seawater puddle is in the middle of the dining room
Nobody knows it sits there, sinking in the floorboards
It used to be a far larger puddle after a storm,
Stealthily leaking into the house
But now it is small—so small—and the boards are moist,
Moist with its only companion amongst the instilled silence
Nobody thinks of empty, abandoned rooms
Nobody remembers the former owners
They were not much for socials and gatherings
They always lived their quiet, happy lives
Without a care of the outside world,
Far from anybody's thought
Miles from the nearest home
Where the next generation comfortably lives
He never finished fixing that leak . . .
Sometimes the puddle gets bigger after other storms
And when it does, there is almost life there again
You can see the chandelier reflected on the unperturbed water
As a crystal dangles and falls from on high
The dark silence following the drop is as deep as thought . . .
Nobody thinks of empty, abandoned rooms
Nobody remembers the former owners
There is merely a house on the cliff's edge
Around a quiet, unmarked shoreline
-March 21, 2013-
Peace of nature shows
how relaxing life can be
and can show you truth
The Beach of Promises
Fingers entwined, barely touching,
turquoise waters teasing your dancing toes,
strolling along that serene deserted beach,
our promised dreams within aching reach.
Hands clasped, holding on,
sea-breezes tickling the nape of your neck,
walking together, alone, vowing to never breach,
the dreams dreamed on that faraway velvet beach.
Hands in my pockets, alone,
traces of you linger, teasing,
lost in my scribbles, your memory fading out of reach,
my thoughts ablaze, now and then,
catching a whiff of your fragrance,
wafting through alleyways of nostalgia,
your hand in mine on our pristine beach.
Summer is here once again.
The breeze is warm,
I smell salt on the wind.
The same sandy beach between my toes,
The same waters I learned to swim.
Sun burn on my nose,
To the Ocean I dive in.
I submerse myself in the waters of the Atlantic
Warmer than the West Coast Thankfully
Cold, I simply cannot handle it!
Further out I paddle faithfully,
For my mother ocean to keep me sane,
this is my therapy,
to soothe this migraine.
This place gives me energy,
a weakness with a name.
Pleasure Island, NC.
A place hidden with fortunes
and undiscovered fame.
Never could I stray from the ocean
my passions would never be fulfilled
and I would never be the same.
Dedicated to my Dad on Father's Day 2013
The man who introduced me to the ocean and educated me about it and gave me reason to love appreciate and respect it.
She slips from the sleeping ice.
Green, fresh, free to flow
through the great fjord.
Past the blue mountains.
She glides smoothly
over the rocks with glee,
covering them with her cool touch.
Tall evergreens cheer her on.
Waving as she courses down her chosen path,
carrying life.
All the while never tiring!
Surging forward to join the others like her.
This vast journey ,
will not end till she reaches
The Great Shores.
Her journey is joyful.
Touching all on her banks,
leaving the gift of life in her wake.
Dedicated to an author by the name of William Golding... Enjoy!!!
~Two boys meet on an island
~~One is skin 'n bones
~~~The other one is chubby
They discover a lagoon~
Ralph teases him by calling~~
him "Piggy" - how mean!!~~~
Piggy asks him if
There are other people on
The island with 'em
He has no clue
But this'll answer Piggy's question --
Other boys appear -
All diverse shapes and sizes
What'll happen next??
You'll see...
Have you ever read The Lord of the Flies?
I recommend it if yah haven't read it yet - I must admit
It's a book full of adult words and it's simply...FASCINATING! - no lies
You should read it - or you'll regret it!
Barefoot, I want to leisurely walk
Feeling soft sands and pebbles as I stroll
Uncarelessly, nature's wind will blow
Along is my hair that lossened from a bow
Little waves from the sea will wet my feet
Yet, I do not care let it be, let me feel
Spreading and raising both arms open wide
Immensely uniting with the air and sun glow
Closing my eyes and bare my lips though
Blood in my veins run deep warmth
Air enters freely in my lungs
Swaying lightly my body on left and right
Dancing with nature a sweet flight
I start to sing songs and hum,
Singing soulfully on top of my lungs
One with awesome nature, not with anyone
Indeed a wonderful magnificent hang
11:46 am
man we jam
had some ham
got started
did we party
as the boat us old goat
dance side by side
on this
SUMMER BOAT RIDEt
Soft sun, dripping through
the trees, landing on
her smiling face.
Waves made of laughter
crashing down in dreams
lost in the cool light.
Gone are the days of
fanciful sights and gold memories.
Now she has seashell thoughts and
ocean air dreams.
Wind and salt against her skin,
soft, crushed powder beneath her tanned feet.
Smelling sea breezes calms her mind.
Melodies that the ocean plays just for her,
making her soul dance.

Candice Bergen is heading to Battle Creek. Murphy Brown herself will play Constance a con artist, E! News has learned. Bergen's character is described as charming, quick-witted and clever and she comes in to help Milt (Josh Duhamel) and Russ (Dean Winters) on a case. Oh, and to make matters more interesting, she's also Russ' mother! Bergen will appear in the seventh episode of the new CBS series. Battle Creek hails from Breaking Bad's Vince Gilligan and House creator David Shore and follows two mismatched law enforcement officers—Milt Chamberlain of the FBI and Russ Agnew of the Battle Creek Police Department—who couldn't be more different. The midseason drama also stars Damages »

This coming week, Titan Books is set to release Showrunners: The Art of Running A TV Show, Tara Bennett's companion book to the upcoming documentary Showrunners, the ultimate insider's guide to creating and running a hit show which includes legends such as Joss Whedon, Damon Lindelof, Ronald D.Moore, Jane Espenson, Terence Winter, Kurt Sutter, Janet Tamaro and Bill Prady. Here's an exclusive excerpt from the book, which hits shelves on September 5th…
With the industry in such flux, writers are also trying to navigate the best paths for their creative careers. Is broadcast in too much disarray to invest? Is cable the right fit for future development? Maybe TV needs to get its act together, and film is the place to hang out for a while? All showrunners are mulling these options, and more, as they think about what their personal futures hold.

[In case you've Forgotten, and as I will continue to mention each and every one of these posts that I do: This is *not* a review. Pilots change. Sometimes a lot. Often for the better. Sometimes for the worse. But they change. Actual reviews will be coming in September and perhaps October (and maybe midseason in some cases). This is, however, a brief gut reaction to not-for-air pilots. I know some people will be all "These are reviews." If you've read me, you've read my reviews and you know this isn't what they look like.] Show: "Battle Creek" (CBS - Midseason) The Pitch: "Hi! My name is Vince Gilligan. You might remember me from such shows as..." "Sold!" "Wait, but I'm not actually going to be available to do anything here." "We *said* 'Sold.'" "Woo-hoo!" Quick Response: Vince Gilligan's script for "Battle Creek," which sat in a desk for a decade before getting a straight-to-series order from CBS, is Not "Breaking Bad." It's a goofier, lighter brew than what you're expecting and if I had to compare it to anything in Gilligan's filmography, I might actually go with something earlier and more comedic, like "Home Fries," which Nobody at CBS wants to hear. I liked "Home Fries." It's kooky and charming. "Battle Creek" is also kooky and charming, but I can't say with certainty that that's what anybody at CBS is going to want it to be long-term, a long-term that will take »

Battle Creek, CBS' upcoming buddy cop drama co-created by Breaking Bad's Vince Gilligan and House's David Shore may not have a premiere date, but it does have a noteworthy guest star.
Patton Oswalt joins stars Josh Duhamel and Dean Winters as the unorthodox mayor of Battle Creek, Mich., in the freshman season's sixth episode, "Cereal Killer," EW has learned exclusively. The character's full name? Mayor Scooter Hardy. There really was no other casting choice.

It's been 12 years since CBS bought Vince Gilligan's script for an odd-couple cop drama. Now, with the help of "House" creator David Shore and others, "Battle Creek" will finally make its way to TV this winter as part of the Eye's midseason lineup.
While this is a lesson on hope for all struggling screenwriters with scripts in turnaround, it's also one on partnership. Both men — creators in their own right of immensely popular dramas with distinct tones of voice — are exec producing the Sony TV and CBS TV series along with Melissa Bernstein, Erin Gunn, Mark Johnson and pilot director Bryan Singer, but Gilligan is ceding day-to-day showrunning activities to Shore so he can concentrate on AMC's "Better Call Saul." At "Battle Creek's" TCA press panel, the two talked about how that partnership has played out.

Vince Gilligan originally write the script for his upcoming CBS drama "Battle Creek" a dozen years ago. So when asked at press tour about the selection of the Michigan town as the setting, Gilligan admitted that he couldn't remember what he did last week, let alone a script he wrote that long ago. In this case, "Battle Creek" co-star Josh Duhamel stepped in to refresh Gilligan's memory, explaining that the "Breaking Bad" creator had been fascinated with the name of the city (which he has never visited) just from seeing it on Kellogg's cereal boxes since childhood. CBS had "Battle Creek" — which stars Dean Winters as a cynical Battle Creek cop and Duhamel as the perfect FBI agent who sets up a field office across the hall from the detective squad — in development a dozen years ago, didn't make it at the time because the right actors couldn't be found. »

Making his second appearance during the Television Critics Association summer press tour, Vince Gilligan returned to the stage Thursday afternoon for a show he probably never thought would see the light of day. Battle Creek, the Breaking Bad creator's 12-year-old pilot script, landed a series order at CBS last year with House's David Shore on board to take the reins. And while Gilligan was effusive about the revived project, he was adamant about playing a small role moving forward. "I'm sorry I'm not a bigger part of this show as I'd like to be as my duties on

Though the cast of "The Big Bang Theory" is still negotiating their contracts for the new season, "We're feeling very confident that these deals will be able to be worked out," chairman of CBS Entertainment Nina Tassler told reporters Thursday at the annual Television Critics Assn. press tour. "I just love being able to answer the questions year after year."
Tassler also addressed plans for the upcoming latenight transition, with Stephen Colbert set to inherit David Letterman's 11:30 p.m. slot. "We're having preliminary conversations with Stephen, very early conversations about format," said Tassler. "We know he's retiring his character on Comedy Central. He does want to have an interview format. As to dates, we're in the middle of those conversations right now."
As for the 12:30 p.m. slot, Tassler said they're still evaluating formats and hinted that the show may not be »

Good thing news broke on Wednesday that the cast of "The Big Bang Theory" is still negotiating with CBS and Wbtv, because without that, there wouldn't have been much excitement to be expected from Thursday (July 17) morning's Television Critics Association press tour panel with CBS Entertainment Chairman Nina Tassler. So we've got that to look forward to. We can also probably expect some queries about Thursday Night Football, the early performance of Halle Berry's "Extant" and maybe CBS' difficulties launching midseason shows (but probably not).

Until about 10 minutes ago, there has been so much conflicting information, if not outright misinformation, about what exactly "Better Call Saul" will be: A straight "Breaking Bad" prequel? A time-bending journey that includes adventures during the reign of Heisenberg? A comedy? A drama with occasional laughs? Huell's story? AMC's press release about the full cast and basic premise and setting fill in some of the details — including that it begins six years before Saul (then known as Jimmy McGill) meets Walter White — and now co-creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould will hopefully bring more of the show (not due to premiere until early 2015) into sharper clarity, without actually giving too much of the fun away. I'll be live-blogging all of Gilligan's charming Virginian self-deprecation, all of Gould's jokes, and whatever nuggets we actually get about the new show.

They came, they schmoozed, they screened. More than 1,500 television buyers from around the world have made the studio rounds in Los Angeles the past few days, checking out the 50-plus new series that landed orders from major networks last week.
The L.A. Screenings are a lower-profile affair than the upfront presentations mounted in Gotham last week, but in many ways they are equally important. International licensing, to linear and digital platforms, is crucial to funding production, particularly for high-end dramas. Unlike upfronts, which are geared to advertising sales, L.A. Screenings are organized around the studios that control the international distribution rights to shows.
"This is an important week," said Armando Nunez, president and CEO of CBS Global Distribution Group. "It tees up a (sales) process that depends on the market. Every year there are more channels to put content on. We need to talk to them all and »

"Agent Carter," the second series from Marvel in the last two years, follows Peggy Carter in 1946 as she balances her administrative work with embarking on secret missions for the covert Ssr (Strategic Scientific Reserve). It should hold more appeal for women than last year's "Agents of Shield."
In "Whispers," aliens have invaded Earth by using our most unlikely resource to achieve world domination — our children. As the kids unwittingly help these unseen enemies, the clock counts down in a race to save humanity.
The unconventional and, at times, comedic "Red Band Society," is based on an acclaimed Spanish series and comes from Steven Spielberg's Amblin Television. »

For international TV buyers headed to the L.A. Screenings this week, the range of selections couldn't be broader, including everything from ever-popular procedurals, event dramas, complex genre series and, to a lesser extent, comedies.
Now that the upfronts are over, the studios' international divisions pick up the road show at the L.A. Screenings, which started on May 13 and run through May 23.
Just as in the U.S., procedurals remain the bread-and-butter of TV networks around the world. Last season, Sony Pictures Television's "The Blacklist" was one of the top new dramas internationally, launching almost simultaneously with its U.S. premiere.
This season, buyers have several new procedurals to choose from, including two spinoffs of CBS' strong franchises, "CSI: Cyber" and "NCIS: New Orleans."
"I can't articulate enough how big all of these franchises are all over the world," says Armando Nunez, president and CEO, CBS Global Distribution Group. »

What's the best new show coming to CBS? Well, we have high hopes for Vince Gilligan and David Shore's Battle Creek, but as CBS Entertainment Chairman Nina Tassler explained during the network's upfronts presentation, that doesn't premiere until midseason. For fall, CBS knows what you want: More NCIS! Your guide to non-ncis offerings also appears below.
NCIS is the biggest drama on TV, so you can't blame CBS for trying to milk it for an endless array of spin-offs. This one focuses on Special Agent Dwayne Pride (Scott Bakula), who leads a »

CBS said it would launch new editions of its long running 'NCIS' and 'CSI' franchises, air a final year of "Two and a Half Men" and follow a strategy of airing more original programming throughout the 2014-2015 TV season as it echoed the chorus of TV networks vowing to launch new content throughout the year, not just between May and September.
"We no longer have a midseason," said Nina Tassler, chairman of CBS Entertainment, during a presentation of the new schedule to reporters Wednesday morning. Instead, she said, CBS intends to launch new series in fall, spring and summer.
Indeed, the network's fall schedule – which includes four new dramas and a comedy – seems an attempt to mix the return of veteran shows with the need to launch new series to keep viewers surprised and interested.
"We roll out big shows all year long," she said, noting the success CBS »

All week long as the other networks have been frantically renewing and canceling established shows and picking up new shows, CBS has been the cool kid leaning up against the wall in a leather jacket smoking a cigarette. [Yes, I'm picturing Pre-Upfronts Week as a '50s problem drama.] Late Friday (May 9), CBS decided to get in on the action, announcing seven series pickups, five dramas and two comedies. [Actually, it's kinda only six series pickups, since Vince Gilligan's "Battle Creek" had been acquired as a 13-episode series commitment pre-pilot.] On the drama side, CBS is moving forward with the "Battle Creek," the planted spinoff "NCIS: New Orleans," "Stalker" (formerly "Untitled Kevin Williamson"), "Scorpion" and "Madam Secretary." On the comedy side, CBS has ordered "The McCarthys" and "The Odd Couple" to series. It's unclear which shows are headed for midseason and which are targeted for fall. And CBS isn't expected to announce any additional pickups or cancellations today. So let's get down to the details on CBS' new shows for the 2014-15 season, »

No. 1 Oklahoma 23,
MANHATTAN (AP) - Kansas State only needed a couple decent minutes to win its season opener, and only a good first half on Saturday night to beat Kent State.
ATLANTA (AP) - Orwin Smith had more than 100 yards rushing and receiving, and Georgia Tech piled up a school-record 768 yards in a 66-24 rout of Kansas on Saturday.
Scores of interest
CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) - Auburn certainly misses Heisman Trophy winning quarterback Cam Newton. It may miss star defensive tackle Nick Fairley even more.
TORONTO (AP) - Mariano Rivera tied the Major League Baseball saves record, earning the 601st of his career and matching Trevor Hoffman while preserving the New York Yankees' 7-6 win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday.
Call it lockout brain lock.
LAWRENCE - Kansas is off to a flying start. It isn't because of the defense.
MANHATTAN - Kansas State was stellar on defense in its season opener. Good thing, too, or the Wildcats would have lost in humiliating fashion to Eastern Kentucky.
ALLEN PARK, Mich. - From fired-up fans in Motor City bars to bookies in Las Vegas, the long downtrodden Detroit Lions have people believing that this could be their breakout season.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Casey Wiegmann has faced just about every fearsome defensive lineman in the NFL over the past 15 seasons. It comes with the territory when you've had success on the offensive line, one of the least glamorous spots on the field.
At the 2001 Orange Bowl, Oklahoma ended one of the greatest runs in college football history when the Sooners beat Florida State to win the national championship.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - The Kansas City Chiefs gathered at their practice facility less than 24 hours after one of the most humiliating defeats in franchise history and watched every second of the 41-7 loss to the Buffalo Bills play out on a video screen.
LAWRENCE (AP) - Kansas head coach Turner Gill went through his entire first season at Kansas without winning two consecutive games. After all, the Jayhawks only won three times all year.
BALTIMORE - Following another successful road show, the Royals are heading back to Kansas City with momentum and history on their side in the AL Championship Series.
MANHATTAN - Even in the midst of a bye week, Bill Snyder didn't have time to blow out any candles.

dragondicktittysprinkles asked: I just wanted to say I love your blog and have been following you since about your first couple of posts on sleepy sheep reads fifty shades of grey. Your have an amazing sense of humor and i feel that you need to know this. :)
Aww, thanks! *blushes*
I know I've been embarrassingly slack about the Fifty Shades of Grey blogging. I need to complete it, but I have yet to finish reading the book; it's so awful and there are so many good books out there… actually, there are so many books out there. Don't really need the 'good' qualifier. 'Less shit' would suffice.
I also started a new job/career last year, and it's been quite time consuming (both in terms of hours and commuting). Couple that with the original writing and other work I try to do in my spare time (and, you know, keeping a social life of some form going :) ) it's left me with very little time to tumble (is that a verb? It should be).
But I do appreciate you saying this; it does spur me on to at least try to get another chapter blogged in the not-too-distant future.
audreyii-fic asked: So-- Who!thoughts?
Hey! Excellent timing - I haven't checked Tumblr for an age, and you send me a Who question to get me typing… I'm assuming you've seen it, so if you haven't - spoilers abound (I can't find the tags bit on replying to messages, so I apologise in advance):
I will admit it. I have read all three books in the Fifty Shades of Grey series.
I am not admitting this because I am ashamed of my sexual desires or even because I feel the need to rant and rave about the poor writing quality of these books. (And it is extremely poor. I set my Kindle to count how many times the word "gasp" is used in the third book and the total was more than 70). I am admitting this because I feel the need to share my opinions about what I consider to be the incredibly — and dangerously — abusive relationship portrayed in the books.
When I first heard about Fifty Shades of Grey and learned they began as Twilight fanfiction, I swore I would not read them. I have read all of the Twilight books and I did not enjoy them. I found the relationships between Edward and Bella and Bella and Jacob to be patronizing and emotionally abusive, and I also thought the writing was pedestrian at best and boring to read. Why would I devote the limited amount of time I have for reading for pleasure to a series like this?
But as the dialogue about Fifty Shades of Grey increased, both in the media and amongst my friends, my curiosity was piqued. I attended a talk titled "Fifty Shades of Grey - Bad for Women, Bad for Sex" and decided that I should see what all the fuss was about.
To quote the book, I gasped. I rolled my eyes. I even bit my lip a few times. But not for the reasons Anastasia, the protagonist, did. I did out of exasperation, boredom and disgust, but also out of fear. After reading this book series, I am deeply afraid that this type of relationship will be viewed as the romantic ideal for women. And I consider that to be extremely dangerous — much more so than anything that takes place between Christian and Anastasia in the Red Room of Pain.
Could the character of Anastasia Steele be any more of a stereotype? She is an introvert, has low self-esteem, has abandonment issues from her father, apparently has only one close friend who bullies her and even though she works in a hardware store, she doesn't seem to possess any self-sufficiency aside from cooking for her roommate and herself. She seems to have no sexual identity until Christian Grey enters her life and requests that she become his Submissive in a sexual relationship.
In order to be Christian's submissive, Anastasia is expected to sign a lengthy and detailed contract that, amongst other requirements, requires that she exercise four days a week with a trainer that Christian provides (and who will report to Christian on her progress), eat only from a list of foods Christian supplies her with, get eight hours of sleep a night and begin taking a form of birth control so Christian will not have to wear condoms. Anastasia negotiates a few terms of the contract with Christian (she only wants to work out three days a week, not four), but all of her negotiations are only within his framework — none of the terms are hers independently. Nothing in their relationship is hers as an independent.
The character of Christian Grey is a rich, superpowered businessman who was abused as a child. He is in therapy, and Anastasia frequently references his therapist, but based on how he treats Anastasia, he doesn't seem to be making much progress. As Anastasia's relationship with Christian progresses, his controlling tendencies affect her life more and more. When her friend takes portraits of her for his photography exhibit, Christian buys all of them, because he does not want anyone else looking at Anastasia. (They weren't even in a relationship when he did this.) When she is hired as an assistant at a publishing company, he buys the company — to make sure she's "safe" working there. When she goes out to a bar with her one friend, against his wishes, he flies from New York to Washington State that same night, just to express his anger — and exercise his control over her. When she does not immediately change her name at her office (in hopes of maintaining some professional autonomy, given that he bought the company she works at), he shows up, unannounced, at her office, in the middle of her workday, to pick a fight with her. When she asks why it is so important to him that she change her name, he says he wants everyone to know she is his.
Christian's possession of Anastasia is the cause of much of my disgust and fear of the book's influence on people and how they view romantic relationships. After they exchange their wedding vows, the first words he says to her are, "Finally, you're mine." The control he exercises over her does not reflect his love for her; it reflects his objectifying of her. Christian never views Anastasia as a person, let alone an independent woman. He wants her to obey him, and even though she refuses to include that in her wedding vows, it is exactly what she does. When her mother questions her choice to keep her wedding dress on rather than change before traveling for her honeymoon, she says, "Christian likes this dress, and I want to please him." Her desire to try some of the "kinky fuckery" in his Red Room of Pain comes from wanting to demonstrate her love for him, not her own sexual desires.
Wanting to please Christian apparently includes subjecting herself to verbal and emotional abuse from him 'til death do them part, because any time she tries to stand up to him — which isn't often — he berates her, guilt trips her and beats her down verbally until she apologizes and submits to him. After she uses the "safe word" in the Red Room of Pain so he will stop, he bemoans his sad state of mind later, mentioning that his "wife fucking safe worded him." He is not concerned with her well-being or why she felt the need to use the safe word. He only cares about how it affects him.
The question that I kept asking myself as I read the books was why Anastasia stayed with Christian, and the answer I found was that she has absolutely no sense of self worth. She only feels sexy when he says she is, and when he insults or patronizes her, she accepts what he says as the truth. One of the passages that disgusted me the most was when Anastasia was at a club with Christian, dancing and thinking to herself that she never felt sexy before she met him and that he had given her confidence in her body. Yes, being with a partner who frequently compliments you can increase your confidence, but Anastasia went from zero to one hundred thanks to Christian. None of that came from within herself. Because of his influence on her, nothing in her life came from herself — her job, her home, her way of life, or even her self-esteem.
The co-dependency between Anastasia and Christian is alarming to read and even more to contemplate. When she breaks up with him at the end of the first book, the second book finds her starving herself and wasting away to nothing until he contacts her again. When she thinks his helicopter has crashed in the second book, she thinks to herself that she can't live without him. Their marriage only comes about because he is scared she will leave him, and when she asks what she can do to prove to him she isn't going anywhere, he says she can marry him. Yes, origins of insecurity and desperation are a great start to a healthy marriage.
When Anastasia finds herself unexpectedly pregnant and shares the news with Christian, he rages at her, asking if she did it on purpose and storming out of the house, disappearing for hours. Even though Anastasia thinks to herself that the pregnancy happened too soon in their marriage, she never considers terminating it.
The themes of the novel — that love alone can make someone change, that abuse from a spouse is acceptable as long as he's great in bed, that pregnancies should always be carried to term even if the parents are not ready to be parents, and the ridiculously antiquated, Victorian idea that the love of a pure virgin can save a wayward man from himself — are irrational, unbelievable and dangerous.
Our culture has seen a radical shift of ideals moving towards traditional gender roles and Fifty Shades of Grey is a shining example of that. Early marriage to one's first sexual partner, having a baby even when saying neither of the partners is ready to be a parent, and submission to one's husband as the head of the household are all aspects of life that feminists and progressive thinkers have worked to move beyond. Anastasia and Christian's relationship is not romantic. It is abusive. The ways he tries to "keep her safe" are not masculine or sexy. They are stalking. Fearing one's husband's reaction to an unexpected pregnancy is not normal, because "boys will be boys." It is sad and dangerous and should not happen in a healthy relationship.
Fifty Shades of Grey was one of the best-selling books of the year. Sex toy classes have been inspired by it, as have new types of cocktails. The film adaptation is already in the works. I sincerely hope that honest discussion will be had about the book and that the Christian Grey ideal of romance is not one that will be perpetuated throughout our culture. The best way that can happen is through open, honest dialogue that leads to healthy relationships of two equal partners. That, in my opinion, is sexier than anything that can happen in the Red Room of Pain.—

Anonymous asked: Shut the fuck up about 50 shades of grey. No one fucking cares
oh hun
let me just give you a quick run down of all the things wrong with this ask:
1-you assume i care what some asshole anon has to say when i have 300 pounds and i'm going kikass birthday shopping today
2-you assume id care about some asshole anon any other day of the year
3-i care about the 50 shades of grey thing. and whether you do or not is irrelevant to me because you are, after all, just an asshole anon
4- this is my blog and i'll post whatever the fuck i want, if you cant take three fucking posts about something without turning into a soggy cum stained dishrag then i suggest you make use of that unfollow button because youre gross
5- lemme break this down for you
if you dont care about this 50 shades situation, you need to grow the fuck up and look at the facts
the fact is the book was so misinformed that all the practises about bdsm culture were ignored and shit all over.
he ignores the safeword
he legitimately rapes her
he never explains everything about bdsm culture to her, shes so misinformed its ridiculous
and all of this is going even more public than it already has and its being romanticised and released on valentines day
like "happy valentines honey! i bought some ropes i dont actually know how to tie and a whip i dont actually know how to use and i'm going to just gloss over the fact you're uncomfortable because that clearly doesnt matter!"
incorrect use of a whip can cause organ failure
incorrect knots used on wristst or feet can literally cause them to need to be amputated
its perpetuating rape culture in ways ive never seen it be advanced to this leve; and if you dont care then youre truly disgusting
you dont care about the kids not fully understanding their sexuality being abused by older people who they think are totally allowed to do this shit?
you dont care about the people that will be raped because of this because hey apparently rape is sexy?
you dont care about the fact that the bdsm culture is, once again, being portrayed as people who are fucked up and must have been abused to be that way rather than normal people who enjoy a kink in their own homes?
you dont care about the fact that youre not supposed to bleed on your first time. ever. and now tons more girls are going to think that its completely normal? that tons more guys will? that tons of people are going to think its expected for the female to bleed when SHE WONT IF SHES BEEN SUFFICIENTLY TURNED ON AND STRETCHED ITS REALLY NOT THAT HARD
you dont care about the stereotype of subs not actually enjoying bdsm culture is being widespread? that all subs dislike it and simply have an ulterior motive?
you dont care about the underlying message of the book being "a woman should give everything, including herself, to a man"?
you dont care about all the people in abusive relationships that will think "oh well this must be normal then" and stay there?
christian grey is a run-of-the-mill abusive boyfriend. he isnt a dom.
a dom loves his/her sub completely and the motto of bdsm is "safe, willing and sane" (or something like that anyone feel free to correct me)
it means that both partners have to be completely willing, with boundaries, safewords and everything worked out before they even think about touching eachother intimately.
if something is a boundary, you dont fucking do it
that simple
if the safeword is used it stops. everything stops
that simple
a dom should treat his sub like a goddamn princess (unless they have prearranged and understand that he wont eg-pet play, slave play where anything outside of the bedroom is also in the same dynamic HOWEVER IT IS STILL CONSENSUAL SO IT IS STILL OKAY)
a dom is not christian grey
but millions of people are going to think he is and are going to think that thats the way bdsm should be and they'll get involved in something very dangerous if they dont have the real facts.
that people will think its romantic because this shit is scheduled for valentines day to treat your partner like shit, abuse her, and that what? getting them off absorbs you of all your shit? no. this is so fucking gross and im not taking a backseat when this shit happens
so in conclusion
literally fuck you, you insensitive fuck stain, this issue is so fucking important.

Google stung by privacy breaches
Wednesday - 10/27/2010, 9:30am EDT
Google, stung by reports of privacy breaches, has taken steps to keep them from happening again. Information Week reports Google has appointed a privacy director who will report to its senior vice president of engineering. The company will require all employees to participate in a security and privacy awareness program. Plus, Google will require engineering managers to maintain privacy design documents for their projects. Last week Google was found to have gathered private wi-fi information and e-mail during drive-by image gathering for Street View. The company already has a global director of privacy, Peter Fleischer.
