While a lot of fans are criticizing the guy for being pushed by WWE despite not having been a full time performer in years, Kevin Nash has publicly defended Batista. He stated that it's a smart business decision to accept the push whenever management is offering one.
"Daniel Bryan wasn't going to win Royal Rumble 2013. He gets tossed out. His fan base would be more upset than him not being in it at all. Just my opinion."
- Kevin Nash defending WWE and their decision
Former nWo stable mates Kevin Nash and Booker T have come to terms on a contract. Nash, who surprised wrestling fans by returning to WWE at Royal Rumble 2014, will be working a show for Booker on February 15, and there is a chance that he could be working more dates for the promotion.
While he did not make an appearance during Royal Rumble 2014 as speculated, Sean Waltman, who canceled an appearance at an independent wrestling show, was said to be backstage at the event, where his good friend Kevin Nash made his return.
Kevin Nash made a surprising appearance during Royal Rumble 2014 last night, and that has caused fans to speculate about his return to WWE. As of right now, it appears to be a one night deal and not a full time return. Nash was said to have been paid really well for that quick stint in the match.
Batista won Royal Rumble 2014 by eliminating Roman Reigns in the end. Other contestants during the match were Alberto Del Rio, Alexander Rusev, Antonio Cesaro, Big E Langston, CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, Damien Sandow, Dean Ambrose, Dolph Ziggler, El Torito, Erick Rowan, Fandango, Goldust, Great Khali, Jack Swagger, JBL, Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, Kane, Kevin Nash, Kofi Kingston, Luke Harper, R Truth, Rey Mysterio, Ryback, Seth Rollins, Sheamus and the Miz.
There is heavy speculation that Kevin Nash will be at Royal Rumble 2014 tonight, as the former heavyweight champion is staying at the same hotel as the WWE performers are in Pittsburgh. He is in town to host a party for people watching the pay per view, but those plans could change.
Kevin Nash could be back on television soon. The former WWE star has revealed that he his agent has been working on securing a potential lead role in an upcoming pilot show. Nash also mentioned that producers want him to dye his hair, so that he will look younger.
"Well I think in Randy's case, I think Randy he was pissed. I don't think he really wanted to go in. That's just my observation from a far. I never heard that from Randy but I'm sure now that the great Randy Savage has passed on, at some point he will be put in there. But I think there was--you have to accept. You have to go there and show up. And there was some heat there. And I think it was just about to get fixed too, just like the Warrior had a lot of heat there. I think he absolutely would've gone in. Maybe this year cause Randy was just coming out--when he died, Randy was just starting to come out. About to do a comic-con and stuff; do some autograph signings and stuff. So I think you would have seen him in there. Right after; not too long after his death, I don't think it had to happen right away but I would imagine that Randy will be in there. And I believe that Jake Roberts will get in. I think I'll get in. I think there will be a lot of guys that will get in there from Kevin Nash, Scott Hall. I think a lot of those guys will get in. Sometimes it just takes time and I think that Jake doing his turn around that he's done over these last 16-17 months--or 16 months I think it is--people are buzzing everywhere about Jake. So I think at some point, it would be awesome if it was this year but who knows? You never know."
Kevin Nash is a Detroit Lions fan, so it wasn't easy to watch his favorite NFL team cost themselves a spot in the playoffs. Through Twitter, the former WWE champion asked the team to stick together because it worked for the Carolina Panthers.
Through Twitter, Tara revealed that Kevin Nash is in Chicago this weekend and will be joining her at the restaurant tonight after his show.
Several fans in England have been critical about the meet and greet with Sean Waltman, Scott Hall and Kevin Nash this week, as they feel that promoters started adding on additional charges at the last minute.
Former TNA knockout SoCal Val will be joining Kevin Nash, Scott Hall and Sean Waltman at an autograph signing in England this week.
Kevin Nash, Scott Hall and Sean Waltman are headed on a tour of Europe soon to do special appearances and signings.

Mom Can't Stop. And She Won't Stop. She Likes to Party.
Last May, my family spent an afternoon filming each other dancing. It was probably a rainy day and we didn't have much else to do. While the shots of the kids and Rob turned out amazing as expected, it was my appearance, that upon reflection, is the highlight. I'm dancing in my bath robe to none other than Miley Cyrus. While our dance party was made before Miley's trasformation into the pop goddess she's known as today, I feel like I was onto something. Prophetic almost. A month later, Miley revealed to the world that she's actually an unconventional and wild house party gal. I love what she's done with herself.
Watch my video. Tell me I wouldn't have made an awesome background dancer in We Can't Stop. I would say Wrecking Ball, but she decided to go solo on that one. I respect that. I just feel that even though I'm 31, have three kids, and I'm a stay-at-home mom, Miley and I aren't so different after all. We like to party. And we can't stop. And we won't stop. We run things. Things don't run we.

Again, this gives you a sense of privacy but you still get a view of the action downstairs. Private yet not a closed room, the balcony takes upto 30 guests for dinner.
Perfect space for an intimate dinner for upto 10 guests. Creating privacy (yet not seclusion!) with hanging fabric, these are the most sought after dining areas of the restaurant.

UPDATED: Friday, November 23, 2012 --- 9:00 a.m.
CLARNO, Wis. (AP) -- Authorities in southern Wisconsin say a man driving a milk truck collided with and killed two cows that had wandered onto a road.
The Green County sheriff's office says the 26-year-old man was driving in the Town of Clarno on Thursday evening when he came across a number of cows in the road.
The driver told authorities he braked and swerved but couldn't avoid hitting two cows.
Deputies say the milk truck sustained moderate front-end damage. The owner of the cows was contacted to remove the animals.

There's one certainty about Milan Fashion Week - that the Prada show will make a serious fashion statement - and this year was no exception. Ultra feminine fabrics (crushed silks and superfine cashmere) worked into a silhouette that revealed a lot of skin (bra tops and low slung skirts showing bare midriffs and dresses artfully falling off shoulders). Colours ranged from tobacco browns and matt blacks to a finale floursh with five dresses made from crushed gold metallic foil. Prints were more naturalistic and ranged from naively drawn little fish to a sophisticated snakeskin and a hint of hi tech in a pixellated grid. Make-up and hair were immaculately womanly: sculpted French pleats finishing in quaffs and nude faces highlighted with iridescent gloss.
It was all quite steamy for a label that generally leaves the sex appeal to the other Italian shows. Dresses and skirts held together with drawstrings looked like they'd need just a tiny tug to have the whole thing come tumbling down. They didn't but as the models struggled to walk in divine but impossibly high hand-spun heels to a laconic soundtrack of early Elvis blues, three took a tumble themselves. The tension was palpable but the crowd cheered encouragement as they got back up and carried on. It was easily the most anticipated show in Milan and Prada's model baby women gave the city much to talk about over dinner. What do you think? Check out the key looks below and give us your feedback on the Prada show.

When I lost my second to last simulated tortoiseshell pick, I went to my local music supply store. They didn't have any of the variant that I wanted. I grabbed a pack of these. These turned out to be amazing picks. They are the pinnacle of acetate simulated mother of toilet seat plectrum craftsmanship.

TV placement in a bedroom is often tricky. Mounted to a wall, the set can be too high, too far away or angled in a way that makes it uncomfortable to view from the bed. Usually, the best position is at the foot of the bed, but who wants that black beast staring at them all night? The solution for the owners of this posh master suite was to have their 42-inch Runco LCD TV installed into a custom-crafted cabinet.
Designed specifically to complement the style, shape and size of the bed, the leather-covered cabinet was equipped with a motorized lift from Activated Decor (see sidebar) so the screen would stay hidden until the owners were ready to watch it. The wiring to power the lift and feed video to the TV was routed underneath the flooring as the house was being built. The lift is triggered via a wireless signal from a portable Crestron TPS-6X touchpanel, a setup designed and programmed by Sublime Integration of Mississauga, Ont. The bedroom electronics are part of a larger control system in this 17,500-squarefoot home, which was recently selected by the Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association (CEDIA) as an award-winner of its annual Electronic Lifestyles contest.
The owners really don't have to do anything special to trigger the lift, explains Dan Whitfield, owner and principal of Sublime. From the menu of the Crestron touchpanel, they just choose the source they want to watch -DVD player, cable box, or something else- and the lift starts to move. In a few seconds, the TV is in prime viewing position, and "we timed it so there would be something on the screen the second the lift is up," says Whitfield.
Should the owners choose to watch TV from the two occasional chairs in the room, they can press the button labeled seating area on the touchpanel, and the lift swivels the TV 140 degrees toward that viewing spot. Two Sonance speakers built into the ceiling above the headboard of the bed provide the audio. When the owners are ready for some shuteye, they touch the power off button, and the screen lowers into the cabinet.Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.
Cabinet Customization Benefits from Local Products
A lot goes into crafting a custom cabinet, especially when electronics will be incorporated into it. In addition to complementing the size and style of the bed in this master bedroom, the cabinet had to accommodate a motorized lift from Activated Decor (http://www.activateddecor.com) and a 42-inch Runco TV. Careful calculations and collaboration between the custom electronics (CE) pros and interior designer ensured that the opening of the cabinet would permit the lift and the TV to travel smoothly into place. Measurements had to be spot on, says custom electronics (CE) pro Dan Whitfield of Sublime Integration, ississauga, Ont. For this reason, Sublime went with a local manufacturer when selecting the TV lift for this project. "They were able to work closely with us and the interior designer on the project and even add technology that would allow us to do things like have the lift move to two different preset positions," says Whitfield.
Cabinet cost (includes design, construction, TV and lift): approximately, $19,000

If you haven't heard of Casadei's Blades you clearly haven't been keeping up with the A-List tootsies. Since Casadei's Blade heels hit the shop floor back in 2011, there's barely a red carpet trooper who hasn't been papped in them. With fans including Cameron Diaz, Kristen Stewart and Jessica Alba, the lethal looking Blade is the Hollywoood IT-shoe du jour. So what's the fuss all about? Combining the perfect pointy pump (ideal for adding edge to both jeans and dresses) with a bad-ass metal spike heel, the Blade is definitely in Shoe Kryptonite territory. But it's the rainbow bright shades and cool colour combos that have taken the style into the realms of wardrobe must-have.
Victoria Beckham Working her Casadei Blades
Just ask Victoria Beckham who has been spotted in her Blades on so many occasions we are starting to wonder if her 125mm stilettos are surgically attached. Working a cream colour way with black piping and a pair of black suede Blades, La Beckham is understandably enamoured. As we all know VB was a long term proponent of the platform pump and as they've now fallen out of fashion grace, it's logical that she would plump for one of the highest single soled pumps on the market. With serious leg lengthening properties, the Blades are definitely not for high heel beginners. But with several styles available from the ankle strap Valentina to the T-Bar Softymetal, if you're up for the challenge the Blade heel is well worth the effort.
Cesare Casadei the designer behind the 54-year-old Italian family brand agrees and reckons the excitement is all down to "the contrast between the razor sharp metal and beautiful fabrics" while Kim Kardashian calls them "the perfect hot heel," tweeting pictures of herself in dayglo pink Blades. Available in a sweetshop variety of shades in leather, silk and suede, you may find yourself considering a very expensive collection. So watch out Louboutin, Jimmy Choo and co. - there's a new A-list stiletto in town! Click through to see which other A-listers have fallen for the Blade's charms.

WASHINGTON - The union representing Metro transit police is suing the transit agency to reinstate an officer who the union says was wrongly fired.
The Washington Post ( http://wapo.st/RieslY) reports Sherman Benton, a Metro police officer, was fired in April 2011 after an incident with a woman in Atlantic City, N.J., while he was off duty.
Court documents say the two were involved in a physical altercation. Benton was taken into custody by police and charged with injuring his girlfriend. The charges were later dropped.
The union's lawsuit says Benton returned to work. Metro conducted an investigation and found Benton lied when recounting what happened. He was fired, but the firing was overturned by an arbitrator.
Later, a Maryland commission declined to recertify Benton as an officer, and Metro refused to reinstate him.

Review this album
Oct 7, 2014Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than the first. Catchy songs, he got this control in his songs that any artist should have. Keep goind Bruno, we are with you!
Jun 20, 2014Conseguiu ser pior que o primeiro,tem 1 boa música e outras 2 medianas.
Não sei por que inssistem e por ele num pedestal que ele realmente não merece estar.
Mar 3, 2014Just a really good album. The beats are awesome. My two favorite tracks: Treasure and Natalie The one I could have done without Show Me. I give this album a 9 out of 10. Thanks for reading.
Feb 3, 2014On his second album Bruno Mars displays his very conceptual and artistic side as far as the song writing goes but unfortunately when it comes to the lyrics beside some extremely catchy hooks, I wasn't completely sold on the lyrics. This defiantly doesn't cut the album short from being wonderful to me. I feel the same way about Unorthodox Jukebox the same way I feel about Thriller by Michael Jackson or Take Care by Drake. Of course nearly half of these albums have been played over and over again nearly to the point of annoyance on our local pop radio stations. Along with the youngsters that attempt to recreate these songs with grace at our local high school talent shows but simply can't measure up to the pure passion that these artist sing with. Bruno Mars really put together a polished, fantastically sung album full of groovy strong instrumentation. Don't let all of the folks who compare Bruno Mars to other pop acts fool you this guy has got a huge amount of talent and crafted a purely triumphant album in my opinion.… Expand
Dec 17, 2013TWO GREAT SONGS won't make a good album. I think Locked out of heaven is one of the best songs this year, and the video is amazing, very energetic and FUN. Too bad the rest of the album is cheesy and slow. Money make her smile is veeeery Michael Jackson and i really like the song, but other than that. Very bland unispired pop fillers.
Dec 3, 2013Peter Gene should pay me for listening to this album because I don't have enough money to repair all the damage that these horrible songs caused in my ears.
Nov 11, 2013New reviewer reviewing my top cds of 2013 what can you say about bruno mars true brilliance, rock, r&b, etc. he has a prince feel on one song and an old school r&b feel on another rock and sting are present i think he is one of the most intiguing and brilliant artists of our century.
Nov 7, 2013Just a perfect album. Such an amazing and catchy voice with good lyrics and melodies. Gorilla is such a jam and Locked Out Of Heaven, the No 1 song on Billboard hot 100, is AMAZING! Besides When I Was Your Man that also was number 1 song on Hot 100. He's brilliant and is ready to be a legend! Way better than the trash we listen to (or have to) these days. Smashing Bieber's (flop) songs and Justin Timberlake's also, even though JT is really talented, he's getting way behind Mars. Bruno is underrated while Timberlake is overrated which is SO wrong. Both are talented, but Mars was meant to be, and obviously his songs doesn't sound the same and he has everything to be a great star. Watch out, Timberlake, Bruno's here to show everyone who's on command!… Expand
Nov 3, 2013Bruno when he did doo wops and hooligans. After hearing I thought he had great potential. So I was pretty excited for this album. And his voice has matured definatly. This might not be the most perfect album. But it's a great step up. Songs like locked out of heaven, gorilla, and Natalie his voice really shows. And there is so much different genres. We have the poppy treasure. The Reggie show me. The slower when I was your man. And the bluesy if I knew. So in conclusion Bruno gives the best of his career… Expand
Nov 1, 2013I'm no Bruno Mars fan but this album is pretty well done. Locked Out of Heaven, When I Was Your Man and Treasure are two songs that should never be left out of any top songs of 2013 list.
Jul 24, 2013The music is still deliberately derivative yet fun and unshakeable, and the lyrics are still unpretentiously simple and ring with a truth that many can identify with.
With this album, Bruno Mars proves to naysayers that he is here to stay.
Jun 28, 2013I've discovered BM with "Grenade" on my girlfriend's player, and wasn't much impressed by it, while she found him awesome. Most of his first album left me a "meh" impression.
But then I heard "Locked out of Heaven", which I at first, while finding it entertaining, thought was an attempt to steal from The Police But it was nicely done, more like a tribute than a cover or plagiarism. Listening to all the songs of his new album, I found a great range of music from the last 40 years !
What he did is a tribute to all the songs he must have listened too growing up (I know he's young, but you can like songs made before you existed), and with great work makes new songs that sound like good old sounds My game was to put dates on the songs, "Locked out" is 1978-79, "Treasure" is 1983-85, "When I was your man", this one I'd say between 68 and 72, but it sounds untemporal so it's just my opinion. This idea is supported by how the videoclips are made, very retro !
This album has a mastered diversity, and it's a sign of a great artist I enjoy listening to it … Expand
May 12, 2013This album is amazing. I have the whole album,l and I believe it's the only whole album I digitally have. He really has nice singles and puts out great music for any format, like Pop, Rhythmic, AC, HAC, and sometimes even Country (Just The Way You Are, imo). I hope he keeps on releasing music that sounds like these 2 albums because then he will have way more success than he is already having. I recommend this album.… Expand
May 8, 2013Just listened to the entire album. I really enjoyed it. Short and sweet and to the point. Very well done. Every song is worth listening to as there are only 11 songs with such variation and there isn't one that is "skippable". Each song tells a story coherently which is something that Frank Ocean may have lacked for me.
Mar 30, 2013Talvez o CD seja muito bom, mas não como o seu CD de estreia Doo Wops & Hooligans, consegui sentir a vibe positiva contida nas letras e no ritmo quase anos 80, pra mim uma pena que Unorthodox Jukebox quase totalmente como uma balada porque músicas como Locked Out Of Heaven são muito vendiveis
Mar 24, 2013Bruno Mars Has Proven With This Album That He Has The Writing Skills And The Voice To Make One Of The Best Albums Of 2012!
Mar 11, 2013Bruno Mars strikes back with an even better sounding album than before, fans like me should be really pleased.
Jan 19, 2013Ah, Mr. Mars' sophomore album. The instrumentation is very diverse, going from synth-pop 80s style ("Moonshine"), to reggae-rock Police-style ("Locked Out Of Heaven"), to Caribbean driven rhythms ("Show Me"). However, the subject matter is still the same: Girls. It's the same commercial stuff he's been putting out since his first album. I know he could do SO MUCH BETTER than what he's doing, although I still like the album, Bruno needs to branch out lyrics-wise, and we'll see what he can do for his third album.… Expand
Jan 6, 2013The current king of 'sappy love songs' is back! His songs are infectious, designed to leave girls 'swooning', giving wedding singers worldwide enough material to sing until Mars' next album. His trademark vocal is back, and while it doesn't have as single as strong as his previous effort, it will still be a big hit worldwide.
Jan 5, 2013this album is one of best albums in 2012 , he gave to me very soul , pop , r&b and awesome music in this album and very good choice to this album singles
Jan 4, 2013Bruno Mars has delivered an enjoyable, nostalgia dripping sophomore effort that surpasses his first album by a mile. While he still has room to grow (he could at least try to be more original), Bruno has proven that he is a talented tribute act and has much more up his sleeve for the future.
Jan 2, 2013I'm usually hesitant to buy complete albums, especially based on only hearing one song. But based on how much I enjoyed Bruno Mars freshman album and the first release, "Locked Out of Heaven", off of Unorthodox Jukebox, I did. All I can say is, Smart Choice on my part. Not a bad song on the album. There are a few song with simple lyrics, but I guarantee you will be singing along. The variety of styles on the album keep you listening and never wanting to skip forward. Now, you will want to play some songs over and over again, like "Treasure", "When I was Your Man" and "Money Make Her Smile". This Sophomore album is surely going to be a favorite for Bruno Mars fans and will make some new fans as well.… Expand
Dec 31, 2012Bruno Mars is a very clever man. He's written some brilliant tunes for himself and for his peers. He's featured on some cracking debuts and he penned F**k/Forget You, Cee Lo Green's solo masterpiece. And Mars debut Doo-Wops & Hooligans was surprisingly a very enjoyable, very well-written and well-recorded collection of catchy songs from a up-and-coming modern songwriter. Now, album two is out, Unorthodox Jukebox, and well, it's certainly something, however whether or not this 'something' is good, is up for questioning. Starting off with Young Girls, most of the album is penned the same, with the same topic in different ways..SEX. It's as if Bruno Mars is sex-hungry. We know from tracks like the Lazy Song that he's not a 'kids' singer but come on, all the iccle kids listen to him, but his whole album is the diary of a sex-ravaged singer with lots of sex, drugs and 'rock n roll'. The track Gorilla summarises the album, a seemingly cute metaphoric ballad that is in the end, again, all about sex. A bland chorus blares "Gorilla, uh uh yeah, you and me baby, making love like gorillas". Even the tracks later on on the album that you think may actually be like 'Just The Way You Are' tricks you by clever titles and is still, actually about sex. As much as i'm still a fan of Bruno Mars, I'll be listening to Doo-Wops far more than Jukebox.… Expand
Dec 20, 2012Is an excellent album that contains a bit of everything does not disappoint bruno, bruno is one of the greatest artists of this time and I hope it is much more some of his songs reminds me of Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley shows bruno is heir to the king of Pop
Dec 18, 2012The music is mediocre and the lyrics suck. I wish they would have tried something new other than the same old ballads off the last album. Something less generic and more punchy. Too bad.
Dec 15, 2012An unbelievable Sophomore album.
Sophomore Struggle? Forget about it. This is a quality, cohesive album that is very clearly inspired by the generations before Mr Mars, and it's not a bad thing in any sense of the word. The album is not as poppy as the first album, but I feel he has risked relevancy in pop to create a true piece of art. Even the most uptempo songs on the album aren't very fast. It's a sharp departure from his previous work but still has the Bruno signature sounds.
I wasn't a massive fan of his when he released "Doo Wops and Hooligans" but I appreciated the album and liked the singles he released. This album has absolutely blown me away, though. There are no obvious singles on the album, for me, but I'd prefer if he didn't even release any. The current pop scene doesn't deserve such effortlessly incredible music. This album has definitely made a fan out of me, and I've had it on repeat since I first heard it.… Expand
Dec 14, 2012This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bruno Mars got a lot of talent, and this album show it very well. Unorthodox Jukebox is in my opinion, much better than his first album. Some songs are absolutely amazing like "Young Girls" and "Moonshine". "Gorilla" is a very good noddy song and of course, all the songs of the album show the great Bruno's voice. I was not a very big Bruno Mars fan, now i think that I started to be.… Expand
Dec 13, 2012Bruno Mars does no wrong!!! , Once again Bruno Mars succeeds to go above and beyond and make an outstanding album!! This is even better than his first album ( and that is tough title to beat!! ) but he did it, Im amazed!!
Dec 13, 2012Bruno Mars - Unorthodox Juxebox:
1. Young Girls: Amazing start. 10/10! 2. Locked Out Of Heaven: The first single. Fast and danceable: 10/10! 3.Gorilla: I love the drums on this song 9/10! 4.Treasure: Disco-Feeling! 8/10! 5.Moonshine: I don't like this song so much. Sorry 5/10! 6.When I Was Your Man: Amazing ballad! 10/10! 7.Natalie: And the next wonderful song 10/10. 8. Show Me: Reggae!! 9/10
9.Money Make Her Smile: Not my favorite song. It sounds like Lady Gaga 4/10
10: If I Knew: Final Highlight 10/10
--> 8.5 points = 9 points. Nice work!… Expand
Dec 12, 2012I wish everyone would stop giving reviews that are 10s and 1s, very few things are either perfect or abysmal. The numbers 2-9 do exist. I digress.
The album is certainly different, and unique, not what his first album was, and that probably has to do with having more control over what he can and can't sing about. Locked Out of Heaven is the obvious hit, but other songs like Moonshine, When I was Your Man and Natalie are all just as good, and potential hits. It's a really good sophomore album. Where others have failed, Bruno Mars has succeeded.… Expand
Jan 3, 2013His second album is the same conventional mish-mash as his 6m-selling debut.
Dec 21, 2012Too many of the tracks seem more like very good imitations of song types than like actual songs.
Dec 18, 2012He's an undeniable talent, desperately searching for an identity to claim as his own.

Politics, Spirituality, and the Feminine
Since our subject is Politics, Spirituality, and the Feminine, I will start with politics. I was born in Vienna, but my parents and I had to flee from the Nazis. We were fortunate to get to Cuba on one of the last ships of Jewish refugees permitted to land there. I was seven at the time, and growing up in Havana I became conscious of politics. Not only of the European politics that had almost killed me, but of Cuban politics. Because, at that time in Cuba, politics were very violent. Different student factions gunned each other down on the streets, and people were killed by the government. That convinced me that violence is not the way to achieve social justice.
In those early years of my life, I also began to develop my own view of spirituality. Every night I prayed to God for our relatives left behind in Europe. After World War II ended, I saw the newsreels of the Nazi concentration camps, and found out that most of those left behind—my grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins—had been brutally killed. That was when God died for me. But there was always in my life spirituality in the sense of putting love into action. So spirituality for me is not so much otherworldly, but about what we do right here on Earth.
This takes me to the feminine, because the love and caring that for me lies at the core of real spirituality has stereotypically been thought of as "soft" or "feminine." So it's been given a great deal of lip service, but—along with women and "effeminate" men—barred from social governance.

Um, Kate Moss? Has something happened to you? Yesterday the model celebrated her 39th birthday but rather than her usual 18-hour booze fest she decided to keep it low-key by popping to her local pub with husband Jamie Hince. Er, whattt? Could it be that the Queen of partying has finally hung up her crown – or has she merely lost it under the sofa?
Kate was spotted – looking pretty gorgeous and incredibly fresh-faced (probably because she hadn't been on a massive bender) – heading to the The Red Lion and Sun last night. That's a quaint boozer in Highgate just incase you wanted to go and have a look. Once there she and Mr.Hince reportedly enjoyed a quiet dinner before heading home nice and early.
Dressed down in a pair of grey skinny trousers and a some super high black Louboutin boots you wouldn't have recognised her as the woman who once had a birthday party which was thought to have ended in an orgy. Kate started her day with a spot of lunch at the Dorchester hotel – one of her favourite haunts – shortly before taking delivery of about 6525 flowers to her North London home (perhaps Jamie forgot to buy her a proper present?!). So all in all it was a rather demure affair.
What do you think, is it nice to see Kate settling down or are you – like us – a little bit disappointed not to be gawping at some pictures of her wild birthday celebrations this morning?

Reinhard Mohn – Citizen
"We need the courage to define new goals!"
Reinhard Mohn's credo was, "We have the freedom to act. We should take advantage of it." Throughout his life, this belief guided his actions as a business and social leader. He always viewed taking responsibility as an opportunity to make a difference.
Reinhard Mohn was born on June 29, 1921, in Gütersloh, where he completed his schooling in 1939 and was subsequently drafted into the military. Serving as a lieutenant in the Africa Corps, he was taken prisoner of war by the Americans in 1943, only returning to Germany in 1946. His desire to become an engineer was at odds with his father's plans for him to join the family printing and publishing business. Mohn acceded to his father's wish and became the company's executive director, a move that marked the beginning of one of the most remarkable and productive careers in postwar Germany.
Over the course of 40 years he transformed Bertelsmann, a midsized company, into one of the globe's leading media conglomerates. Thanks to his self-discipline and his desire to effect change, his achievements in the area of business management, leadership and civic engagement proved exemplary. He was guided by his family's longstanding values and its 175-year tradition of addressing social issues. He himself said, "Ethical considerations are always just as important as economic goals. It seems to me that this is what explains the remarkable stability exhibited by Bertelsmann."
Even in his early years as executive director, Mohn put a lot of energy into creating an optimal structure for his company. He wanted his organization to reflect the principles of justice, fairness and partnership. His inspiration was not the ideal of a social utopia, but the conviction that employees who are given an opportunity to develop within the workplace will be happier and therefore more motivated and productive. "What influences a company's growth and continuity most is when as many people as possible are willing to take responsibility and participate in decision-making processes," he said.
His beliefs reflected three concerns: individual freedom, material justice and social security.
In 1981, in keeping with the leadership principles he himself had developed, Mohn relinquished his position as chief executive officer of Bertelsmann AG and became chairman of the company's Supervisory Board, a position he left on June 29, 1991, his 70th birthday, to head up the Bertelsmann Stiftung. On October 1, 2001, he stepped down as chairman of the foundation's Executive Board and was succeeded by Dr. Gunter Thielen. He remained a member of the board until December 31, 2004.
In 1981 Mohn was recognized by the city of Gütersloh for his exemplary contributions to public life. In 1994 he received the Commander's Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany and, in 1996, was made an honorary member of the Club of Rome. In 1998 he received the Knight Commander's Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany, as well as the Prince of Asturias Award, bestowed by the Spanish royal family. The same year he was named Entrepreneur of the Century. In 1999 he received North Rhine-Westphalia's State Prize, along with the Hanns Martin Schleyer Prize and Spain's Grand Cross. In 2000 he was honored with the Bernhard Harms Medal, awarded by the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, and the Jakob Fugger Medal, presented by the Association of Newspaper Publishers in Bavaria. In 2001 he received an honorary doctorate from the University of Münster and, in 2002, the Future Prize awarded by the Christian Democratic Party's Social Committee. Together with his wife Liz he received the Teddy Kollek Award in 2003. The Spanish city of Alcúdia in made him an honorary citizen in 2005. Finally, in 2007, he received the German Founder's Prize in the category "Life Achievement."
When he was honored by the city of Gütersloh in 1981, the city's then municipal director, Dr. Gerd Wixforth, noted that Mohn's efforts on behalf of his hometown did not consist solely of financial support, but another key ingredient as well -- personal engagement. The city's history is full of examples of Reinhard Mohn's involvement , Wixforth said.
Reinhard Mohn died on October 3, 2009, at the age of 88.
"I did what came naturally to me."
(Reinhard Mohn)
Gütersloh Municipal Museum displays bust of Reinhard Mohn
The Municipal Museum of Gütersloh wants to help keep the memory of Reinhard Mohn alive. A bust of the late business leader has therefore been added to the museum's exhibition "Gütersloh: A City of Donors and Philanthropists." Liz and Christoph Mohn donated the bronze bust as a gift to the citizens of Gütersloh.

Last night, an Australian TV commercial for the Wii U came on. My wife looked at it, then at me, then back at it, then at our Wii, before finally asking "wait, don't we have a Wii? What's this?"
While a single anecdote, it sums up my biggest concern for Nintendo's new console, at least in its early months: its message. Its marketing. A console's capabilities and even its software are irrelevant if it's not sold properly, and where the Wii was clearly sold as a new, revolutionary device, Nintendo's messaging for the Wii U has been a bit of a mess, one that starts from the very top. With its name.
By calling it the Wii U, and not the Wii 2 (or an entirely different thing), and by using old Wii Remotes in much of its advertising, Nintendo has failed to differentiate the product from its predecessor. At least at a glance. Now, my wife, she was quickly informed that, no, this is a new console, like how the PS3 followed the PS2. But not everyone is going to have someone "in the know" sitting next to them to explain the difference when they first come across the system.
Which is leading, as we've found, to a lot of people having no idea what the hell a Wii U is. Like Michelle Obama, the First Lady of the United States.
We had a bit of a chuckle about that yesterday, but even the most casual search on Twitter shows she's far from alone. While the word "Wii" is almost universally recognised after a six-year run as one of the hottest consoles of all time, with near-unprecedented mainstream appeal, "Wii U" seems to have some folks awfully confused.
What the heck is a wii u?? I'm so confused.— Kristina B (@junebugkb11) November 22, 2012
wtf is a wii u? what happened to just the wii??— Missy~! ☆彡 (@missymise) November 22, 2012
Just saw a Wii U advert. One of the "what is a Wii U" ones. Had to explain what it was to the wife. Good work Nintendo.— Mutt (@ps3mutt) November 25, 2012
Logan was talking about the new "Wii-U". Mom asked, "What is a "Wii-U"?". Dad replied, "It is like P-U, but we all do it together."#loveem— Hannah Clark (@HannahClark0624) November 24, 2012
What the fuck is a Wii U ?— Casmere Taylor (@FreshLoudOut) November 22, 2012
the wii u has been floating around for quite a while now and i still dont know what it actually is— chili (@mechoniscore) November 24, 2012
I asked my son if any of his friends want a Wii U. He said they don't know what it is. That's a problem @nintendoamerica— Jim Barraud (@jbarraud) November 28, 2012
No matter how many of my Mentalist powers I use, I still can't figure out what a Wii U is supposed to be.— Erik Dobell (@erikdobell) November 28, 2012
I thought Wii U was just an extra thing for the Wii, but no, it's a completely different console. What is actually the point?— Eilidh Mercury ♥ ♫ (@curlybobofelia) November 28, 2012
A Nintendo ad popped on an displayed, "What is Wii U?" Then 3 actors waggled Wii remotes and 1 had the controller. Didn't explain fuck all!— Neil Nightingale (@LemonPeel88) November 28, 2012
It's easy to laugh, as readers of a video game news website, but put yourself in their shoes. You're up to your neck in news and information about video games, of course you know what a Wii U is. But if you're just some regular user, a casual player, and you own a Wii then see a commercial where people are still using Wii Remotes but on a different box that's got kinda the same name, what are you going to think?
Well, you're going to think a lot like these folks are thinking.
Now, this won't be a long-term issue for Nintendo. In 12-24 months, after enough market penetration and advertising, I'm sure most people will have an idea what the new console is all about. But boy, I bet that right now, someone at Nintendo is wishing they'd gone with a different name.

BALTIMORE (AP) -- Animal keepers at the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore say they are hopeful that their young elephant, Samson, can survive a potentially deadly virus.
Zoo officials say began noticing in February that Samson was acting lethargic. They began treating him for a deadly version of the herpes virus. The illness is lethal in elephants at least 80 percent of the time. Samson is being given antiviral medicines three times a day.
Zookeepers say Samson has been recovering -- but he still has several weeks of recuperation. Curator Mike McClure says Samson is very weak at times and lacks energy.
Samson is nearly 5 years old. He's the only elephant born at the Maryland Zoo in 137 years.

Grow Old Along With Me
Crime, Drama - Gillespie and Forbes get involved in the case when Sparta is rocked by the deaths of two innocent young people in the tragic car accident. Trina Mallin , the alcohol-influenced driver of the other car, emerges virtually unscathed, and it appears to be an open-and-shut case, especially since Pauline and John Ryan, two of Sparta's most prominent citizens, were eyewitnesses to the entire incident. Trina claims she cannot recall the details of the night in question, but Forbes learns that some years earlier Trina was involved with Ryan, a former Sparta police officer who unexpectedly l

It begins with a magnificent, almost theatrical, gesture – an affirmative theme on first violin, triumphantly in A major, with bare fifths and fourths underlining the tonality. The theme is repeated by the cello, as in E major, but if there seems something almost neo-classical about this opening (hence the movement's title 'Overture', perhaps), it is soon undermined by a darkening of key and irregularly shortened bar-lengths. The semitonal second subject, barely holding on to the dominant as it passes across distant tonalities, is more repetitiously nervous and uncertain, leading to the (very exceptional, but also used in the Ninth Symphony) exposition double-bar and repeat.
The development is both extensive and masterly. The first subject is sung as a waltz-tune in a kind of C minor, with gentle pizzicato accompaniment, echoed (as in the exposition) by the cello, and the second subject, also in C minor, is developed by the viola. The previously barely-referred-to gruppetto which ended the first subject and the rhythmic ictus which characterised the second now take centre stage. The music is carried into fearful uncharted territories as the impetus remains fast and the dynamic rarely falls below forte, until a sudden, deathly E flat minor chord – the farthest possible key from A major – slides the second subject's semitonality upwards, until A major is reached, the movement's material now recapitulated in reverse order and shortened form. The first subject appears to end the movement, but is interrupted by a final defiant reference to the second before an astonishing, classical perfect cadence peremptorily closes the discussion.
The second movement, 'Recitative and Romance', is enveloped by two long declamatory un-barred solos for first violin, accompanied by long-held lower chords; the effect is no-wise predictable, at times recalling Orthodox Church music, Middle Eastern incantations, the Gesangszene of Louis Spohr and J S Bach – but always remaining spiritually expressive. If, structurally, this also anticipates the recitatives in the Ninth Symphony, it surely is a glimpse into the more private world of the composer, which surfaced directly in the works of his final decade. The 'Romance', in a slow 3/4, brings no new material to the work, for it is based almost entirely on the material of the first movement, now changed virtually beyond recognition and developed along quite different lines and moving to an impressive climax. The shortened return of the Recitative closes with clear references to the first movement's subjects before the final simple B flat major.
Connected thematically as they are, the nature of each of the first two movements is introductory, a characteristic which is carried over into the third movement, 'Waltz'. Here we encounter one of the most amazing movements in Shostakovich's music up to that time, a movement so subtle in its construction and breathtaking in its achievement. Naturally in 3/4 (almost) throughout, the triple time which has characterised the first two movements is carried forward, but the tonality and timbre are vastly different. It is in E flat minor, the tonal opposite from the first movement, and of which B flat (which ended the second) is the dominant. The four instruments are muted throughout, even when marked fff thus giving an astonishingly ghostly, almost glassy, feel to the music. Finally, the waltz-theme itself is based on the destabilising second subject of the first movement. As this unique movement comes to its close on a ppp E flat minor chord, the air is full of mystery.
Shostakovich has here presented himself with an extraordinary compositional problem – which he solves with genius. The formal devices which he has used in the Quartet up to now demand a resolution in semi-classical structure; the tonality should return to A, but it is unlikely, in view of what has occurred, to be A major. Therefore, a semi-classical return to A minor is the tonal solution. But the material of the Quartet demands both a return that embraces triple time and a solution that combines elements of both subjects from the first movement. Quite apart from anything else, this has to make sense as music, and the implication is a finale which carries the psychologically penetrating emotional weight of the entire work.
The result is a 'Theme and Variations', prefaced by an introduction taking E flat minor as its starting point in powerful octaves on second violin, viola and cello, akin to the opening statement of the Quartet and answered by first violin unaccompanied, thematically musing over the Waltz theme at infinitely slower tempo, but texturally recalling the Recitative and Romance. The new element is a 4/4 pulse, in which, Moderato con moto, the viola, unaccompanied, has a folk-like theme in A minor with a single 3/2 bar for variety, but which theme actually includes the movement's introductory octave idea. Gradually, the variations follow, almost as in classical precedent: second violin, first violin and cello add to the texture, but A minor is not relinquished, until the astonishing thematic unity of this work is revealed when pianissimo triplets urge the music faster. Now the second group of variations unfolds, set in motion in 3/4 by the cello. They gather, ever more brilliantly in character, as the music, expanding with genuine energy, embraces both duple and triple time with cumulative power. An attempt to drag the music back to E flat minor fails as the springboard which launched the finale is brought into play again; a minor third higher, in F sharp minor, heralds a new variation, and another one, to A minor, into which deep tonal region the Quartet now moves, secure in its final symphonic integration of all of this undoubted masterpiece's large-scale contrasts.
