Roy Hodgson gamble on Andros Townsend pays off
– Roy Hodgson on his bold selection of Andros Townsend.
We agonised over it I must say. We had plenty of discussions and argued things back and forth because on this occasion we did have so many players we could choose from.
To leave people like Jack [Wilshere] and James Milner out of an important game like this with their talent and experience was not an easy decision.
But, of course, we're glad it worked out well for us. I thought Andros, who got the man-of-the-match award, must be delighted with his evening's work.
Call it brave. Call it bold. Call it a brilliant hunch by a manager who has been criticised for his caution.
Call it what you like but the moment Montenegro's net rippled with a quite stunning strike from Tottenham's debut boy Andros Townsend, Wembley resounded to a moon-rocket roar and England manager Roy Hodgson had silenced his doubters.
Townsend's strike capped a sublime performance by a 22-year-old in whom Hodgson had shown such faith in throwing into a World Cup qualifier packed with tension and nerves.
'Who dares wins', you might say and on this night it was Hodgson and England with a 4-1 victory which was justly deserved if only because England did all the pressing, made all the running, showed all the ambition.
Momentum is everything in football and this result and the emergence of Townsend will give England just the boost they need going into the deciding fixture against Poland on Tuesday.
No, England are not in Brazil just yet, but you could not fault the vim and vigour with which they went about their business.
Let's face it, that is how it should be. England should devour nations such as Montenegro.
It is a country with a population of 621,000, barely half the size of Birmingham. At 27 in the FIFA world rankings, 10 adrift of England, it is punching way above its weight. Why? Because it is also a nation with proud and determined footballers with a capacity for obduracy and no mean technique when it comes to defending.
That is why, despite the buoyant mood music of the past week, there was a nervousness around Wembley, the sort which prompts strikers to snatch at chances they would dispatch with aplomb in a run-of-the-mill league game.
That was how it was in the first half.
Danny Welbeck squandered a couple of early opportunities, Wayne Rooney rasped one shot just wide, Daniel Sturridge put one or three over the crossbar. Steven Gerrard brought a fine save from Montenegro goalkeeper Vukasin Poleksic.
Rooney missed the easiest chance of all, hitting the side netting from six yards.
Yet Townsend was always a threat. In the absence of Theo Walcott he gave England pace and width and menace down the right. And yet as much as England battered away at the Montenegro door they struggled to get through.
Mostly that was down to shooting profligacy and a lack of imagination in the sort of match Barcelona face week in and week out against deep and committed defences determined and ambitious only to close down.
Such matches require patience and guile. It is no use continually running down the same cul-de-sacs. For too long there was too much huff and puff and not enough coherent thought about England.
Yet while England are not Barcelona there is a resolve and a tenacity about Hodgson's men to admire.
Quite how the scoreline in Kiev, where Ukraine defeated Poland 1-0 and leapfrogged temporarily to the top of the Group H table, went down at half-time in the England dressing room is anyone's guess.
But at least England knew exactly what they had to do and the Wembley faithful burst into a rendition of the National Anthem on the restart to help them on their way.
Hodgson, too, paced his technical area for the first time, wringing his hands and looking increasingly like a man on the edge.
Until, that is, Townsend picked up a loose ball and motored down the wing, right under Hodgson's nose, and delivered a cross from which Welbeck brought a fine save from Poleksic, only for Rooney to bundle home the rebound.
The glee with which Rooney slid on his knees in celebration was a measure of the relief around Wembley.
The own goal which followed from Branko Boskovic was as bizarre as it was welcome and it seemed England were home and dry until Dejan Damjanovic struck to set the nerves all aflutter.
No problem, not for Townsend whose fearless running culminated with a devastating shot which flew past Poleksic and might have taken England all the way to Rio.
Sturridge's late penalty, after he had been brought down by Ivan Kecojevic, gave the scoreline a convincing flavour.
Job done. Now let's do it all again.

Since its beginnings in 1980, Staten Island Fencing Club has developed the skills of collegiate athletes and Olympic hopefuls under the guidance of head coach and founder Steve Khinoy, a Johns Hopkins PhD with more than 30 years of coaching experience. In 2010, the club?once relegated to college cafeterias and church basements?took up permanent residence at Staten Island Fencing Center, a full-time facility as bright and spacious as the Man in the Moon's front yard, complete with fencing strips, an armory, and a pro shop. There, Dr. Khinoy cultivates an atmosphere of camaraderie, teaching both novice and advanced swordsmen to master the Olympic and NCAA sport's triumvirate of blades: foils, sabers, and ?p?es.
Under President and Coach Susan Monardo, the center's focus has been to help both the recreational fencer and competitive fencer reach their goals. Beyond one-hour introductory lessons, regular courses stretch for several weeks, during which competitors learn the strategies and fancy footwork necessary to best opponents on the piste and during freestyle dance contests. Summertime day camps and clinics sharpen slashing technique with five hours of daily instruction that include warm-ups, basic drills, and individual lessons. The staff also hosts parties for birthdays or other celebrations, in which guests practice the art of dueling amid cake, refreshments, and bouquets of colorful balloons shrieking in terror.
Hands-on learning and playtime in JW Tumbles' interactive classes help children explore the far reaches of their cranial caverns. Parents with toddlers younger than 3 years old can enroll in parent-participation classes such as Squeakers Class, geared toward four- to 10-month-olds, Little Maestros is a musical adventure for kids four months to five years, or Wobblers Class, where baby bodybuilders 11 to 18 months old practice tumbling and balance to increase motor skills and decrease the need for sippy-cup creatine shakes. Ages 3 and older can fly solo—parents can watch from the sidelines if they wish—during age-appropriate and highly interactive independent classes. The Stompers Class prep 3- to 4.5-year-olds for kindergarten, while Specialty Classes introduces kids from 3 to 7 years old to specific forms of fun in a non-competitive environment. Each class meets once a week, leaving plenty of time for use of the playspace passes.
Twenty-eight armed soldiers swarm between two stories, ducking and weaving to avoid the sharp eyes of their opponents. Or so the story often unfolds during laser-tag sessions in FunTime America?s state-of-the-art laser-tag arena. Though it may be the most adrenaline-pumping portion of the family-friendly play place, it's but an introduction to the variety of attractions that unfolds before visitors. Guests helm bumper cars, take flight in helicopters, or race to scale the 20-foot climbing wall, whose foothold arrangements offer four difficulty levels from easy to easy for people with wings. Once playtime comes to a simmer, the video-game arcade really shines with its air-hockey tables and sit-down games that take imaginations on the road to their pixilated lands. After kids have tired themselves out, they can refuel at the USA Cafe with pizza, pretzels, and other fare to boost energy before another go around the center beckons.
Intoxx Fitness's trainers push groups of students to their limits in search of better fitness and stronger bodies during classes such as kickboxing, spinning, and Zumba. Though the gyms' schedules vary by location, each hosts classes for all skill levels seven days a week, both in the morning and evening. The gym floor includes a large free-weight and machine lifting area for ample opportunity to supplement in-class workouts with more targeted exercises, for which personal trainers can assist with tips, tricks, and advice on chatting up that single weight machine.
At Demarco's Boxing Club, pugilists and exercisers alike torch calories and boost heart rates during vigorous training and fitness classes. Members can join the gym's fight team to prepare for an upcoming bout, or sign up for white collar boxing, a more fitness-focused approach in which students beat the starch out of collared shirts. The gym also hosts drop-in sessions, including personal training workouts and cardio kickboxing classes that tone bodies with aerobics, plyometrics, and bagwork.
Warriors of Wresting hosts high-flying acrobatics and punishing choke holds as roster of characters vie for the championship. Fans from across the tri-state region revel as faces and heels step in the ring for one on one or tag team gauntlet matches. The animosity and energy spills into all characters of this close-knit fighting world, as fans watch the shifting loyalties and blood feuds develop over the course of monthly live event.

Catholic Encyclopedia (1913)/Puyallup Indians
|←Pierre Puvis de Chavannes
|Catholic Encyclopedia (1913), Volume 12
Puyallup Indians
|Johann Ladislaus von Oberwart Pyrker→
An important tribe of Salishan linguistic stock, formerly holding the territory along the river of the same name entering near the head of Puget Sound, Washington, and now occupying an allotted reservation, together with several kindred tribes, in the neighbourhood of Tacoma, Pierce County. Their near neighbours, the Nisqually, speak a dialect of the same language. The name is said to mean "shadow", referring to the dense forest shades, and to have been applied originally to the country abut the mouth of the stream.
The tribes of Puget Sound region made acquaintance with Catholic priests and laymen as far back as the advent of the Spanish explorers in 1774-95, and from the accompanying Franciscans obtained rosaries and crucifixes which they still treasured sixty years later. This Catholic memory was kept up through the French Canadians in the service of Mackenzie, Fraser, and the Hudson Bay Company. In 1838, the secular missionaries, Norbert Blanchet and Modeste Demers, arrived on the Columbia from Canada, making headquarters at Fort Vancouver, from which point Father Demers, in 1839-41 visited the tribes northward along Puget Sound, instructing and baptizing many. In 1843 another secular, Father Jean-Baptiste Bolduc, made another successful tour of Puget Sound and lower Vancouver Island. In 1847 arrived the first party of Oblates destined for the same mission, chief among which were the famous Father Casimir Chirouse, the Apostle of Tulalip (d. 1891). In 1854 they joined with other tribes of that region in the Treaty of Medicine Creek, by which they gave up their free range and agreed to come upon the reservation assigned them. In the next year they joined the Nisqually and others in the general outbreak of the Washington tribes, known as the Yakima War, which was not finally brought to an end until 1858, when the work of civilization and Christianization was again taken up; but it had been sadly checked by the demoralization consequent upon the removal of reservation restrictions under the recent individual Allotment Act. Upon this point both official and mission authorities agree. With whiskey and pauperization by white swindlers the end seems not far off. More than half the tribe are classified as Catholic, and besides the Government reservation school, the St. George mission school, established in 1888, and in charge of a secular priest assisted by six Franciscan sisters and a lay teacher, has an attendance of sixty pupils of the several confederated tribes. From perhaps 800 souls sixty years ago the Puyallup Indians have decreased to 556 in 1900 and 466 in 1910. In aboriginal customs and beliefs they resembled the Tulalip tribes.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

There's Only One Real Option for Averting Economic and Ecological Ruin -- So Why Aren't We Talking About It?
The following excerpt is reprinted from the new book Energy: Overdevelopment and the Delusion of Endless Growth, edited by Tom Butler and George Wuerthner, published by Post Carbon Institute and Watershed Media, in collaboration with the Foundation for Deep Ecology.
Energy conservation is our best strategy for pre-adapting to an inevitably energy-constrained future. And it may be our only real option for averting economic, social, and ecological ruin. The world will face limits to energy production in the decades ahead regardless of the energy pathway chosen by policy makers. Consider the two extreme options—carbon minimum and carbon maximum.
If we rebuild our global energy infrastructure to minimize carbon emissions, with the aim of combating climate change, this will mean removing incentives and subsidies from oil, coal, and gas and transferring them to renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and geothermal. Where fossil fuels are still used, we will need to capture and bury the carbon dioxide emissions.
We might look to nuclear power for a bit of help along the way, but it likely wouldn't provide much. The Fukushima catastrophe in Japan in 2011 highlighted a host of unresolved safety issues, including spent fuel storage and vulnerability to extended grid power outages. Even ignoring those issues, atomic power is expensive, and supplies of high-grade uranium ore are problematic.
The low-carbon path is littered with other obstacles as well. Solar and wind power are plagued by intermittency, a problem that can be solved only with substantial investment in energy storage or long-distance transmission. Renewables currently account for only a tiny portion of global energy, so the low-carbon path requires a high rate of growth in that expensive sector, and therefore high rates of investment. Governments would have to jump-start the transition with regulations and subsidies—a tough order in a world where most governments are financially overstretched and investment capital is scarce.
For transport, the low-carbon option is even thornier. Biofuels suffer from problems of high cost and the diversion of agricultural land, the transition to electric cars will be expensive and take decades, and electric airliners are not feasible.
Carbon capture and storage will also be costly and will likewise take decades to implement on a meaningful scale. Moreover, the energy costs of building and operating an enormous new infrastructure of carbon dioxide pumps, pipelines, and compressors will be substantial, meaning we will be extracting more and more fossil fuels just to produce the same amount of energy useful to society—a big problem if fossil fuels are getting more expensive anyway. So, in the final analysis, a low-carbon future is also very likely to be a lower-energy future.
What if we forget about the climate? This might seem to be the path of least resistance. After all, fossil fuels have a history of being cheap and abundant, and we already have the infrastructure to burn them. If climate mitigation would be expensive and politically contentious, why not just double down on the high-carbon path we're already on, in the pursuit of maximized economic growth? Perhaps, with enough growth, we could afford to overcome whatever problems a changing climate throws in our path.
Not a good option. The quandary we face with a high-carbon energy path can be summed up in the metaphor of the low-hanging fruit. We have extracted the highest quality, cheapest-to-produce, most accessible hydrocarbon resources first, and we have left the lower quality, expensive-to-produce, less accessible resources for later. Well, now it's later. Enormous amounts of coal, oil, gas, and other fossil fuels still remain underground, but each new increment will cost significantly more to extract (in terms of both money and energy) than was the case only a decade ago.

No bolts for mounting the turn signals to the stalks. Other than that, look good and work good.

I ended up using these on my sons Sportster. Work gr8
bigmacdaddy Posted:
make sure you use loctite on the screw that connect the light to the mount or it will continue to loosen up.then you have to remove the whole mounting bracket to re-tighten it.
enavycop Posted:
good quality easy install
carlsonmjc Posted:
Good quality, but incorrect hardware. Had to make a trip to hardware store to buy bolts, to attatch rear signals.
Ruthnelle Posted:
The light kit was a great choice. The only change I would recommend to the manufacturer would be and couple of options for mounting the light kit to the bike. I ended up buying separate mounting bolts to reach through the fender assembly.

In Wise Blood's video for "Loud Mouths," the Pittsburgh weird-pop auteur survives a slow-motion car wreck, swaggers through a fancy-dress party, and encounters a naked corpse covered in CGI blooming roses. In the grand, hours-old tradition of Nite Jewel's "One Second Of Love," it's a beautifully crafted, evocative music video that makes no sense at all. Alex Takacs and Joe Nankin direct. Watch it below.
Wise Blood's These Wings EP is out now on Dovecote.

I cannot wait to get started!!

I am so thankful you posted this! We are SO PASSIONATE about doing this as a family every year. And it totally does not surprise me that you love to do this too…you are so great like that!
We SO love the Jesse tree! Last year was our first year to do one and it was phenomenal…the best advent season for us ever! It is so great ending the day reading the Scripture that foretells the coming of the King.
My boys are 5 and 4 and we've modified our reading this year to coincide with The Jesus Storybook Bible (we totally LOVE this!) by Sally Lloyd-Jones.
You can check out our plan for advent this year here:

Oh we love the Jesse tree tradition! I have a different book, but it's the same idea. I was part of an ornament swap and ended up with a beautiful set or ornaments.
I love the scriptual reminders that the coming of our Savior has been part of the Plan for a long, long time. The Jesse Tree is a great way to experience the awe and excitement of the Birth of Our Lord as if for the first time again.
I am so glad you highlighted this special tradition.

Edie, thanks so much for sharing this!! I've always wanted to do a Jesse tree, but never got around to it because I didn't really know where to start.
Just ordered my book from Amazon – can't wait to get started!

Were the pages in your book in full color?
I just received my copy from Amazon, but the pics are all black-and-white-and-blah-grey … it looks like they've been (poorly) photocopied, so even coloring them in won't be very pretty)! Boooo!
I guess "pretty" isn't the point, though, huh?!

A public inquiry into the UK's role in the Iraq war has opened, with former civil servants first to appear in hearings that will climax with Tony Blair, the former British prime minister, taking the stand.
One-time senior officials from the foreign and defence ministries outlined Britain's policy towards Baghdad in early 2000, as the five-member committee began its investigation on Tuesday.
John Chilcot, the inquiry chairman and a former civil servant, said he was confident of producing a "full and insightful" account of the decision-making that led Britain to join the 2003 invasion against strong opposition at home and abroad.The inquiry will also look into the justification for the war, principally the claim that Saddam Hussein, the former Iraqi president, had weapons of mass destruction. These weapons were never found.
Among the first witnesses called on Tuesday was Peter Ricketts, who chaired the government's senior intelligence committee between 2000 and 2001 before taking a senior post at the Foreign Office (FCO) between 2001 and 2003.He told the panel that before the war Britain had hoped for a strengthened policy of containment that had been in place since the 1991 Gulf war, reducing the threat posed by Iraq through sanctions, weapons inspections and security measures.Regime change
However, Ricketts said some in the Bush administration had a different vision."We were conscious that there were other voices in Washington, some of whom were talking about regime change,'' he said, citing an article written by Condoleezza Rice, the then-US national security adviser.
"In February 2001, we were aware of these drum beats from Washington and internally we discussed it [ousting Saddam],'' he said.
"Our policy was to stay away from that. We didn't think Saddam was a good thing, and it would be great if he went, but we didn't have an explicit policy for trying to get rid of him."The three witnesses said that the September 11, 2001 attacks on the US were the turning point for attitudes in Washington."The shift in thinking was to say that we cannot afford to wait for these threats to materialise. We must be ready to engage potential threats wherever they emerge," Patey saidCriticism
Chilcot has said that nobody will be on trial in the inquiry, held at a conference centre near parliament in central London, but has also vowed not to shy away from any criticism if the findings warrant it.
"No-one is on trial here. We cannot determine guilt or innocence. Only a court can do that.
"No-one is on trial here. We cannot determine guilt or innocence. Only a court can do that"
John Chilcot,inquiry chairman
Shane Greer, executive editor of Total Politics, a British political magazine and website, told Al Jazeera that he believes the inquiry will uncover new information about the Iraq war."First of all the scope of this inquiry is absolutely unprecedented. "Already, back in July, Sir John [Chilcot] began speaking with families of injured and killed soldiers ... now he's going onto the spy chiefs, civil servants ... and moving onto politicians.
"So I think we're going to see much more from this inquiry than any previous inquiry, because of course the frame of reference is so much wider, the access to information is so much wider.
"And also the inquiry has been given the power to apportion blame which really is quite incredible."
Chilcot and his fellow committee members have met the families of some of the 179 British troops who died during the six-year conflict, who raised issues about whether they were properly equipped and trained.'Honest answers'Many families of soldiers who died in the conflict have said they want "honest" answers from the inquiry.
Rose Gentle, whose son Gordon died in Iraq in 2004, said: "We do hope that the committee are going to be honest ... I don't know why he died until the end of this inquiry," she said. Demonstrators have protested outside the conference venue, with some dressed up as former US and UK leaders with blood on their hands.Anti-war campaigners are calling for a ruling on the legality of the conflict, which was carried out without explicit approval by the United Nations Security Council.Two official investigations into the run-up to the war have already taken place, but ministers had refused to hold a full inquiry until after the military deployment had ended.
Analysts have said the inquiry is incapable of addressing the key issue of whether the invasion was legal, because of a lack of lawyers and judges on its six-member committee.
An unnamed senior judge told The Guardian newspaper that analysing the war's legality was beyond the committee's competence.

I was warned about reverse culture shock at my first ever meeting for the Kenyon-Exeter program, long before I had sent in any applications or packed any bags. I knew this would be true. I get culture shock just going back and forth between Kenyon and…
Just in case you needed to be reminded how beautiful Kenyon is in the fall.

slowly but nearly continuously from a depth of about 65 km and accumulates in a shallow chamber about 3 km beneath Kilauea's summit. When that chamber becomes filled but the delivery of molten rock continues, the rock walls of the reservoir split, and molten rock either erupts to the surface or fills underground fractures in the volcano's flank.
Many questions about the Hawaiian volcanoes remain unanswered, but their general structure and dynamics are understood relatively well by comparison with those of the Cascade volcanoes like Mount St. Helens and Mount Rainier, which are less continually active. This understanding comes from familiarity; the spattering eruptions of Hawaiian volcanoes are part of everyday life. As convergent plate volcanoes, the Cascade volcanoes rise frigid and silent above the jumbled ridges clustered around them—Mount Shasta and Mount Rainier are over 4,000 m high; Mount Hood and Mount Baker reach heights over 3,000 m; Mount St. Helens had grown to only 2,550 m before its eruption in 1980. At these volcanoes, typical of those around the Pacific rim, earthquake swarms and ground deformation episodes are much more intermittent than at Kilauea. Long periods of quiet are suddenly interrupted by intense episodes of shallow intrusion and eruption. When these volcanoes erupt, they can be violently explosive.
Although violent eruptions are easily perceived as a major hazard, so can associated mudflows or lahars. About 4,000 years ago a massive mudflow having a volume of over 3 km3 originated on the edifice of Mount Rainier and partially filled many surrounding valleys and inlets of Puget Sound to hundreds of feet. Such a mudflow can be a major hazard. They might not necessarily be directly associated with a volcanic eruption but can be triggered by a nearby earthquake that might destabilize the glaciers on the volcanic edifice. Mount Rainier currently has over 4 km3 of perennial ice on its peaks; such mudflows are poised to occur again. Because of the potential mudflow and volcanic hazards at Mount Rainier, it has been designated as a ''Decade Volcano" within the context of the International Decade of Natural Disaster Reduction. The intent is to focus hazard-related research activities; these activities are currently being developed.
So far, earthquake and deformation data on the convergent-boundary volcanoes reveal little about their dynamic behavior. A possible reason for this may be that much significant activity at these volcanoes is beyond the penetration capabilities of deformation-monitoring instruments, perhaps 25 to 35 km beneath the surface. When the sources of potential ground-surface deformation are so deep, the changes at the surface are either too small or too widely distributed around the volcano's summit to be measured by conventional surveying techniques.
The advent of satellite-mounted surveying systems, such as the Global Positioning System (GPS), may help to resolve this problem. With an accuracy of ± 2.5 cm over 50 km, satellite surveys may be able to detect such small local or widely distributed changes in the elevations and horizontal positions of benchmarks around potentially active convergent plate margin volcanoes.

The next leg of profitable growth for the existing TV networks in the country will largely depend on their subscription revenue, as per an MPA (Media Partners Asia) and TV.NXT analysis.
The reason for this is that the advertising market will remain fragmented and competitive. Between 2010 and 2016, the Indian television advertising market will move from $2.5 billion to $5.4 billion. However, the TV distribution and other non-advertising revenues such as licensing and syndication, in the Indian market, are expected to reach the $10 billion mark by 2016.
The reason for this expected growth in distribution money are many. The growth for HDTV, monetisation of digital direct-to-home (DTH) and digitisation of 80-90 million analog last-mile cable homes will contribute massively to this growth. Broadcasters and content providers are also expected to gain from this. The MPA report suggests that TV networks will garner about 20 per cent of the total TV industry distribution fees by 2016.
Both STAR and Zee are expected to increase their EBIDTA in the next three years. In fiscal 2011, STAR EBIDTA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ) was $157million, and is expected to grow to $253 million by 2014, the report said. Similarly Zee's EBIDTA is expected to grow from $169 million to $270 million in the next three years, while that of Sun TV will be $438 million from the current figure of $348 million.
For STAR, the study suggests, the future value drivers for the network will be its growth in regional markets, and international subscription. A strong parentage (News Corp), leadership across genres, and presence in distribution will continue to be the strengths for the network, however the real challenge for the network will be its limited FDI in news which means heavy dependence on the domestic partner.
Zee will increase its profitability through sports, but it will also have to increase its content cost to regain its leadership in the Hindi GEC space. Zee's growth rate will be moderate -- around 11 per cent over the next five years but margins should climb from 25-30 per cent. However, it will have to leverage other group businesses and new revenue streams, as well as, weather intensifying competitive dynamics.
In the report, MPA ranked the top television networks on seven critical parameters such as flagship channels, bouquet strengths, scale, content sourcing, IPR and syndication, distribution leverage, financial strength and future readiness.
Each of these parameters was assigned weight to the degree of its relevance over the next five years. Each network was assigned a score between one and nine (nine been the highest score) for each parameter. STAR India led the list followed by Sun, Zee and Sony.
In the next few years, the importance of Indian networks in the global scale is also expected to increase. This year, STAR India will contribute around 5 per cent to the global revenues for News Corp, while Sony's Entertainment's contribution in its global business will also be the same. At the APAC (Asia-Pacific level), STAR India will contribute 65 per cent of the revenue, while Sony will contribute 75 per cent to the parent company's income.
However, Indian media businesses' position as a profit engine, driver of talent and capital flows will depend on a number of factors, such as the pace of consolidation, rationalization and M&A activity; the development and growth of new markets and demographics; the build-out and monetization of digital and broadband infrastructure for the delivery of content and progressive change to an outdated
regulatory regime.
Overall, the TV industry is expected to grow from $8.6 billion in 2011, to $15 billion by 2016 -- at a CAGR of 12 per cent over the next five years. This means India's TV business will be half the size of China by 2016 and will be the third largest TV advertising market in Asia after Japan and China.

While attending a French school has been absolutely key, I have also put in hours of time and energy into this project, not to mention hard cash at times (employing French students to play with them, reading to them in French at every spare moment, playing French stories in the car when I'd rather be listening to music, buying them French books, CDs and films, setting up playdates with French-speaking friends, and most of all only speaking with them in French for around 6 years, from when they were babies until they were safely ensconced in a native French school).
The effort has been so very worthwhile and my heart sings whenever I hear them running around with their school friends, chattering away like French natives! I will keep pushing French at every opportunity, because to succeed at their school they need to keep expanding their vocabularies. Luckily they do a lot of the work themselves now without even realising it, by reading to themselves :)
I feel sure they will retain their bilingualism into adulthood now and hope the whole experience has helped them become more sensitive, culturally aware, individuals.
Pin It now!

"Tiz, please. You're getting bumpkin all over my feral bikini woman fantasy. "
I'm there. Forget ME3, give me this.
I'm right there with you Mac, I want this game something fierce. Especially after the fire chakrams video we saw for the mage characters.
Deputy Editor of Gamersector.com
Check out my podcast Sectorcast, http://gamersector.com/podcast/sectorcast
A lie would be considered the truth if only more people believed it.
Yeah, those chakrams were pretty awesome looking.
Very excited about this one myself. That doesn't seem to far off. ;P
My Links:
DeviantArt, Twitter
Yeah, I'm ok with it being in February. Soooooo many games left to play...
Twitter: BeckyCFreelance
You guys were all so easily seduced by those fire chakrams. I mean, I suppose they look cool but it doesn't seem like anything we haven't seen before. In tons of other games there are flaming weapons that can be flinged out far in front of you.
It's going to be a sweet game. Of course the gameplay needs to be solid but once I'm passed that, the most important thing to me is how beautiful my world is. We'll see how it compares to Oblivion's beautiful world.
Now that it's delayed, I'll be able to finish Skyrim before it comes out.
That said, I like the fire chakrams as much as the next person, but that's not what sold me on this game. Having seen the combat in action and meeting the team behind this, I'm very hopeful for KoA. I can't guarantee anything about the quality having not played it, but I'm more than cautiously optimistic. It's more than the chakrams that have me feeling that way, too.
Yes, seeing this game on the big screen at PAX East hyped me on it. It looks both gorgeous and fun to play.
Twitter: BeckyCFreelance
When I play, I'm going to go out of my way to make a character that's resistant to fire and projectile attacks. It's my personal rebellion. Hahaha.
I wonder if there is going to be thievery and stuff, too. And an arena. And guilds. And charismatic townspeople. Uwaaaa! I'm getting excited by comparing it to Oblivion.

Goldman Boosts Apple Price Target
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) - Apple (AAPL) is raising the stakes for investors with its dividend and buyback announcement. Now, Goldman Sachs (GS) is raising its target on Apple.
As shares of Apple hover around the $600 mark, Goldman Sachs analyst Bill Shope has raised his price target to $700, up from $660. He reiterated his Conviction-Buy List rating on the name following the dividend and buyback announcement.
Not only does Shope view the dividend as favorable, he notes that the buyback authorization was "an incremental positive."
"In addition, on the conference call this morning, we believe Apple's management appeared very willing to consider steady increases in the dividend and share repurchase rate over time," Shope wrote.Following the buyback announcement, Shope raised his earnings estimates for 2013 and 2014. He now sees Apple earning $50.57 per share in fiscal year 2013, up from $50.29, and $57.90 in 2014, up from $57.14. He left his fiscal year 2012 earnings per share estimate of $42.52 unchanged. "We continue to expect several critical positive catalysts for Apple's stock this year, including (1) the iPhone 5 refresh in 2H2012; (2) continued installed base growth in emerging markets; (3) continued PC market share gains with the MacBook Air; and (4) the highly-anticipated launch of an iOS-centric Apple television set," Shope went on to say. Shope was not the only analyst to raise his price target following today's announcement. Others also hiked their projections, as they believe the buyback and expanded investor base will push Apple to new highs. FBN Securities analyst Shebly Seyrafi raised his price target to $760 from $730, on the basis of Apple's ability to attract new investors. "These actions will expand the pool of investment funds that can invest in the name, so are positive for the stock. The $10B stock repurchase plan, over three years, seems a bit low for now. However, we believe that it is an initial step and it could expand substantially in the future," Seyrafi wrote in his research note. Serafyi rates Apple shares "outperform."
