The demo of "Don't Be Messin' 'Round" is among dozens of unreleased tracks from the Bad sessions, and provides insight into King of Pop's songwriting and recording process.
It's been 25 years since Michael Jackson was in Westlake Studio in Los Angeles putting the finishing touches on his classic 1987 album, Bad. Today, a demo of a never-before-heard song from those sessions will finally get an audience when Sony's re-release of Bad's original lead single, "I Can't Just Stop Loving You," hits Wal-Mart shelves. The B-side, an infectious rhythm track called "Don't Be Messin' 'Round," provides a glimpse into Jackson's creative process—and to his incredible profligacy as a songwriter.
Jackson had a habit of writing and recording dozens of potential songs for each new project. This was especially the case for the Bad era, a prolific period in his career. At one point, he considered making Bad a triple-disc album given the amount of quality material. So it's fitting that later this fall, Sony Music and Jackson's estate will put out a full album of previously unreleased material from the Bad sessions. While the track list has not yet been finalized and will not be made public until closer to the September 18 release date, more than 20 new, unheard demos from the Bad sessions are currently being considered for the album. The songs being evaluated include a number of real gems and a few titles previously unknown to the most ardent Jackson aficionados.
Jackson would pull out the song again during both the 'Dangerous' and 'HIStory' sessions. Clearly, it was a song he liked. But it never found a home.
A team of Jackson collaborators and caretakers—including estate heads, Sony VP John Doelp, producer Al Quaglieri (who oversaw the excellent 2004 box set, Michael Jackson: The Ultimate Collection) and recording engineer, Matt Forger—combed through the vaults to see what was viable for the Bad 25 release. The criteria used for identifying potential songs were simple: They had to be recorded during the Bad era (1985-1987), and they had to be developed enough to feel like a complete track.
The Michael Jackson estate and Sony Legacy are leaving Jackson's work raw and unembellished this time around, in contrast to the King of Pop's first posthumous album, 2010's controversial Michael. The tracks will thus be less polished but more authentic, organic and true to what Jackson left behind. Similar to the critically acclaimed 2009 documentary, This Is It, the goal is to provide an intimate glimpse of the artist in his element. The listener, in essence, is brought into the studio with Michael Jackson as he works out a variety of musical ideas in his follow-up to the best-selling album of all time.
"Don't Be Messin'" illustrates this concept well. In the track, we can hear Jackson giving instructions, vocally dictating instrumental parts, mapping out where to accent words or add percussion, scatting and ad-libbing many of the unfinished lyrics. "One of the main intentions is to show that these are works in progress," says Matt Forger, a sound engineer and longtime Jackson friend and collaborator. "To pull the curtain back. To actually see Michael in his natural work environment, how he directs, his sense of humor, his focus."
The finished product, then, is intentionally unfinished and spontaneous. "You can just hear him having fun," Forger says. "His spirit and emotion are totally there. He knew in demos he didn't have to be totally perfect in his execution. So he'd be loose. He'd throw in ad libs and dance or sing or pop his fingers or clap his hands. You just hear him enjoying himself."
Jackson first wrote and recorded "Don't Be Messin'" during the Thriller sessions with engineer Brent Averill. Around this time he was working on a variety of musical ideas, including demos of "P.Y.T." and "Billie Jean." "Don't Be Messin'" features Jackson himself playing piano ("He could do more than he ever really let people know," Forger says.) He also produced, arranged, and guided many of the instrumental parts, including the cinematic strings, Jonathan Maxey's piano part in the bridge, and David Williams funky guitar licks.
Ultimately, since "Don't Be Messin'" wasn't fully developed and so much other strong material was coming in for Thriller, Jackson decided to put the song on the back burner, having in mind to revisit it for his next album. "That was kind of how Michael developed ideas and songs," explains Forger. "He let the song unfold in its own time. Sometimes a song wasn't ready or didn't quite fit the character of an album or a project and it would stay in the vaults. And then at a certain point of time, he would pull it out again."

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
I decided to write this review with my memoirs of Rio still burnt fresh into my memory. I just got back from this wonderful city yesterday, after a very pleasing 5 day stay in one of Copacabano's 4 star hotels. My original intent was to go lie down at the beach and get a nice tan, forgetting the chaos of NYC for a short period of time as I enjoyed tropical weather. I got some of that, but also ended up spending much energy walking around town and going to see some wonderful natural sites.
First of all, let me tell you why you should visit Rio at least once in your life time. Americans have been flocking Europe lately, and you can go to South America just to be original, but that can't possibly be your main goal. In my opinion, Rio does not have the best monuments and historical sights, the most beautiful women, nor the wildest night life. Traveling is my hobby, and I have been to Europe, Mid-East, and Asia. Churches in Paris are better then the ones in Rio, masques of Istanbul more exotic, and the night life and women in Amsterdam a whole lot more beautiful (tall, slim and blonde. What else can you ask for?) The best of Rio I think is its natural sights observed from Corcovado and Sugarloaf. From both mountains, you get an incredible perspective of what I call 'the city meets the ocean'. I suggest that you go to Sugarloaf at around 4PM, look around and have a short lunch-dinner. By the time you are done, darkness will have coated the city, which will start to glitter under you. I didn't have a chance to take the Helicopter tour, but I seriously recommend this as well.
The most famous beach of Rio is Copacabano, which I believe stretches over 3 miles. Here I enjoyed the burning sun and rejuvenating taste of Coconut Juice (Coco Gelato) in the mornings. Unfortunately, the sea is not enjoyable at all unless you are body surfing. In fact, its terrible to go for a swim as the waves are way too high, the currents too strong. Just dip into the water and get refreshed, but don't go for a long swim. The locals themselves told me that it is a deathtrap unless you are an excellent swimmer. Well, I am actually a licensed diver, but I don't enjoy struggling through strong currents so I avoided going too far deep. The girls of Ipanema beach are a mix of brunette and black. Their skin color is honey brown, some with dark colored hair burnt towards blondeness. Some of them are incredible to look at and very friendly towards English speaking tourists. I suppose they want to practice their academy-level English, and are very interested in people from other countries.
Rio has also a lot of exotic restaurants. You can go to a 5 star restaurant in Rio and get the same quality you would get from the best NYC joint at half the price. Around 40$ per person will get you a nice dinner, couple of drinks, and desserts at Rio's best restaurant, leaving enough money to even tip for the service. A Brazilian BBQ in Manhattan costs 40$ without the drinks or the dessert. Unfortunately, the attendants are only semi-ready for Tourists and their habits. They might do something about the price that you will find highly offensive. An example to this was my visit to Marius (possibly the best BBQ restaurant in Rio). The manager kept walking in circles around our table, hands joined behind him, glancing at us every 5 seconds to make sure we paid. Maybe he thought we didn't have enough money? I don't know, but I was offended. Another example to this idiocity was the table attendant who stood by me until I gave him a tip -- my intention was to leave the tip on the table, but I wanted him to walk away so I could sort through my money. He practically snatched the money from my hand; and again, I was offended. But these are really minor insults, and only caused by the ignorance of the attendants. Anyway, here are my restaurant recommendations in Rio: BBQ, Marius in Copacabano; seafood, Satyricus in Ipanema; traditional Brazilian: Casa de Fejuado in Ipanema; exotic seafood: Yemanci in Ipanema. Oh yeah, be prepared to eat a lot of meat, as I don't believe there is any Brazilian food that doesn't contain it, but I may be wrong about this.
The people of Rio vary from part to part. Your tour guides, and other reviews written by people from Rio will claim that 98% of the people are good, and the 2% bad. Well, let me give you a more realistic opinion -- its more like 75% good 25% bad. The 75% good you will meet in Copacabano and Ipanema. The friendliest women were around the Ipanema area. In two separate occasions, I met a girl while buying a Coco Gelato. They asked me simple questions, like if I was enjoying my stay in Rio, where I was from, etc. This is something that undoubtedly surprised me, as I have been living in NYC for about 10 years. Here, women on the street are too busy having nightmares about you, while in Rio they greet you for no reason whatsoever.
Nightlife in Rio offers some excitement, but if you expect anything out of the ordinary you will be disappointed. I went to a couple of clubs and found nothing too wild or exhilarating. This is not to say that I didn't have fun, but I suppose I expected more from this city. Possibly things get a bit crazy during the Carnival. Hmm, let me just give you a couple of lines about the Fallen Angels, as I have no other euphemisms for them. I saw quite a bunch of them while going in and out of the club Help in Copacabano. I could not believe my eyes. Some of them are just incredibly gorgeous -- I am talking about model quality here.
I stayed in a 4 star hotel in Copacabano, called Luxur Cabano. The place is good, with air conditioned but very tiny rooms and decent service. Its right in the middle of Copacabano, with access to open markets, nice restaurants and clubs. My overall impression was good, but don't expect the best of a lot of things in Rio. Possibly the best natural views of the ocean and the islands, but monuments and buildings aren't as impressive as some I have already seen. Also, read reviews from people that have actually lived there or are from there. They are kind of sugar-coated, but they do offer great insight into the culture of Brazil. I personally recommend Coroecakesurfer's 5 day guide to Rio that is listed here. His instructions aren't for everyone(for example, I don't mind paying 2 bucks for a cab instead of hiking 3 miles under the hot sun), but he goes into detail about some of the most popular sights and the people. Take his guide and personalize it to your own liking, and avoid Tours offered to you by Hotels at all costs. They are way overpriced than if you take a cab to the place and buy the ticket yourself. For example, the Samba show from your hotel will cost about 100R$ per person. If you take a cab to there, the ticket is only 60R$. The cab to get there from Copacabano is about 10$. So you end up saving 60R$ for the whole trip, and get driven in a taxi rather than a bus.
So be original, go to Rio instead of Europe. The people are friendly, the women beautiful. It has absolutely stunning natural sights, and pleasant beaches as well as many exotic tastes.

Hot teens playing lesbian games
Who needs boys when two girls can have all the fun they want? Mary and Mia may look as if they are just chilling on a sunny afternoon – but there`s something hot brewing here. Watch as Mia interrupts Mary`s beauty rituals and gets on that table to get her lovely muff kissed by her girlfriend. The two play with each other`s peaches until you and themselves are completely exhausted.

She gets rid of a few things she's wearing, and then it's time to play with that swollen meat pocket of hers. Woah, look at that thing! Juliya will not stop plugging herself till she's completely depleted.

It`s a lazy day for Carry here. Not just it`s going slow, but she`s also too lazy to study. Good thing her boyfriend is around – like literally, right next to her on the bed. Things start slow as the two make out and exchange oral favors. But gradually the slowness and laziness go away as the guy drills that coochie and then that behind and then shoots all over this tasty crack.

Ariadna is a respectable hard-working girl. She has to leave for college in like minutes.

Watch them getting it on like crazy, her hole getting all engorged and her clit rock hard as he bones both her holes. She better clean her face after leaving, this slut!

Alkermes' CEO Presents At Morgan Stanley Global Healthcare Conference (Transcript)
And those two elements are rare to find in biopharmaceutical companies, particularly of our current size. So on the financial here and now, we have assembled based on our technologies, which are, I think fairly easily understood, now they are quite advanced.
We have a pipeline or portfolio of five major commercial products and these are commercial products approved in markets around the world. Five products that are almost all of them early in their commercial life with long patent protection, patent protections 20s for the most part.
So these five commercial products are contributing topline now, which is about a $0.5 billion and growing, that's generating positive non-GAAP income, positive cash flow, positive EBITDA, and that's continue to be the case for the foreseeable future.
So we can cross the rubicon. We become an economic enterprise of certain scale with long lived assets that are not interrelated in terms of [their core entities], they are very independent, they comprise of portfolio that's very power and can last for long time.It originates from a certain technical capability, manufacturing capability that we built over the last couple decades. So the probability we think of our being able to build more products is quite high. The difference between the next-generation of products and the first generation of products, is that the first generation of products were essentially done under a partnering model, where we used big pharmas money and resources, and development expertise to help us build our capabilities and generate cash flows from royalties and manufacturing products. This next wave of products, our proprietary products that comprise the pipeline take that learning and that understanding the technology and apply to drug for Elan account. This is not a new story. This is what Elan did a couple decade or so ago and transform themselves into a $10 billion plus company.

10 London Summer Olympics Brands You Can't Escape
McDonald's has been an Olympic sponsor for more than 35 years, but the Brits are taking this year's sponsorship with a big side of hate. They're already uncomfortable with commercials airing there featuring Olympic happy meals that give kids mini pedometers under the guise of "helping" Olympic mascots get to the games. There's no word if the British children's route to the Olympic venues includes a quick stop at the drive-thru window for a sack of burgers and a flagon of milkshake, but British doctors are already calling the supersized McDonald's proposed for the athlete's village a billboard for obesity. McDonald's Olympic ads have yet to air in the U.S. -- where there's a much higher tolerance for the pairing of high-impact athletics with high-fat foods -- but so far London isn't down with the clown.
In case you were wondering, they're still making watches. Yes, the ones with the hands. You know who knows this? Boomers, who've seemingly never stopped wearing them and will leave watches to their heirs in the same volumes that the World War II generation left behind Hummel figurines. It's that generation that's going to love Omega's commercial featuring well-toned athletes, precision watches and the ultimate Boomer sports anthem: The Rolling Stones' Start Me Up off their 1981 album Tattoo You. Mick is still cool enough to shrug off Moves Like Jagger and play with Arcade Fire and Foo Fighters, but his songs have been reduced to selling timepieces that are far less functional than they were when they first started timing Olympic events 80 years ago.

Vishay Reports Results For Fourth Quarter And Year 2012
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH), one of the world's largest manufacturers of discrete semiconductors and passive components, today announced its results for the year and fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2012.
Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $2,230.1 million, compared to $2,594.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The net earnings attributable to Vishay stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $122.7 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, compared to $238.8 million, or $1.42 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Revenues for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2012 were $530.6 million, compared to $551.4 million for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2011. The net earnings attributable to Vishay stockholders for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2012 were $21.0 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, compared to $31.0 million, or $0.19 per diluted share for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2011.
Net earnings attributable to Vishay stockholders for the fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 include one-time tax benefits primarily related to the release of deferred tax valuation allowances in various jurisdictions. The years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 include other items affecting comparability. These items are summarized on the attached reconciliation schedule. Adjusted net earnings per diluted share, which exclude these items, were $0.11 and $0.71 for the fiscal quarter and year ended December 31, 2012, respectively, and $0.15 and $1.46 for the fiscal quarter and year ended December 31, 2011, respectively.Commenting on the results for the fourth quarter 2012, Dr. Gerald Paul, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "As expected the fourth quarter 2012 was the weakest quarter of the year. But the order intake in the fourth quarter 2012 was higher than in the third quarter 2012 or in the fourth quarter 2011. The normal levels of inventory in the supply chain and a higher degree of confidence at our distribution customers might indicate a potential turn-around of the business. This is supported by a strong book-to-bill ratio for January."

Blog Brilliance: Integrate the Rest of Your Life with SmugMug
You want a blog to go with your website. Seems simple, right?
Maybe, but you wouldn't believe how often our Support Heroes often get questions about how to do this on SmugMug. If this sounds like you (or were just thinking about it), then you're in luck.
First of all, why WordPress? It's great for frequent updates and extra SEO, and it's a great complement to your SmugMug portfolio, proofing and print sales. Here are three different ways you can have both a Smug site and a fabulous WordPress blog… the best of both worlds!
As an extra-special bonus, we're giving one very lucky photographer a lifetime membership to the ultimate SmugMug-friendly WordPress portfolio site: Photography BlogSites. Read further for info, and scroll to the bottom see how to enter.
1. Joined With a Link.
Our friends over at FastLine Media are pros at creating custom SmugMug sites with beautiful blogs. Owners, brothers and pro photographers Justin and Brandon recommend setting up your SmugMug site like a portfolio, displaying only your best photos to keep your audience captivated. Your Smug site will contain text pages (About Me, Contact, Pricing, etc), a few public portfolio galleries and your unlisted client galleries.
It should also contain a link to your blog. A simple WordPress blog linked from your site is the perfect place to post photos and write some thoughts about a recent event you've shot. You get to share more photos publicly than just the one or two images you add to your portfolio, but don't have to go as far as sharing every photo from your clients' private galleries. Your blog becomes an extension of your portfolio, and you get to decide how much.
The benefit? Like SmugMug, WordPress has great SEO benefits. If you shoot a wedding at the Ritz Carlton in Half Moon Bay, you could make the title of your post, "Jack and Jill's Wedding at the Ritz Carlton in Half Moon Bay." Due to the magic of WordPress, those keywords in your blog title automagically appear in the browser title and meta description. Booya!
As a bonus, see how to make SEO work for you on SmugMug.
And did you know that:
- You can just copy and paste the URL of your photo (or video) from your SmugMug gallery and drop it into your WordPress editor. It'll automagically embed itself at the perfect size.
- You can encourage more sales using our easy Buy Links. Grab one now from Get a Link, and copy and paste the code into your WordPress editor. When fans click the photos on your blog, we'll pop up the shopping cart so they can easily buy a print, gift or download. (Just make sure the shopping cart hasn't been disabled in your gallery settings.)
2. Go DIY.
Did you know that we have a huge list of useful apps that our customers have written for you? Our code-savvy fans have built all kinds of tools to help you post videos, slideshows and galleries to WordPress. And more. Take a look at the full list here on our Hacks and Apps page, and scroll down to "WordPress."
Disclaimer: We do our best but we can't guarantee every product or provide support for the third-party apps on that page. Questions? Contact the app's developer. Most of them are great folks who love to hear from you.
3. Be No-Brainer Beautiful with Photography BlogSites.
We've posted about our friends over at Photography BlogSites before, but it's worth another mention. They are hands-down one of the easiest ways on the web to create and maintain a beautiful WordPress-based portfolio site that comes with a matching blog. They handle the heavy lifting. You enter the content, you write the posts. You can even apply one of their gorgeous themes with a click, customize it to taste and have it port over to your SmugMug site, too.
Here are some beautiful examples. See more here!
Get Set Up for Life With This Giveaway.
Our friends at Photography BlogSites are ready and waiting to give one fortunate pro photographer a lifetime pass for their very own blogsite. (Regularly priced at $399/year)
How to enter:
- Like our Facebook page HERE.
- Like Photography BlogSites' page HERE.
- Leave a comment below this post telling us which of their four coffee-flavored themes is your favorite.
We'll pick a random winner and announce it here on Tuesday, July 24th, 2012. Good luck!
*** UPDATE: We have a winner! It's Brigette from Outer Focus Photos. Congrats, Brigette and we'll contact you with keys to your brand-new website. Thanks to everyone! ***
And remember that even if you aren't the winner, you still win: Simply sign up for a membership and authorize the connection to your SmugMug account. Photography BlogSites automatically applies a $50 discount off your first year of beautiful blogging, just for being Smug.
Happy blogging and good luck! Don't forget that if you've got questions about building your own Smug site + blog, our customization heroes are always happy to help.

Because many parents say they have a difficult time talking with kids about drugs and alcohol, the Partnership launched a new nationwide parent movement called Time To Talk (TM), designed to encourage and empower parents and caregivers to have ongoing and frequent conversations with their teens and tweens about the risks of using drugs and alcohol.
"Communication between parents and kids is the most effective prevention tool when it comes to protecting your teen from abusing medications," said Pasierb. "Kids who report learning 'a lot' about the dangers of drugs at home are up to 50 percent less likely to use illicit drugs."
TimeToTalk.org provides parents helpful tips and tools to begin these conversations and the encouragement to help parents keep the dialogue going over the long haul. Parents and caregivers can sign up for free monthly newsletters and gain access to tools such as, Tips for Getting the Conversation Started, How to Help Your Kid Turn Down Drugs. The site also links to the Time To Talk Yahoo Group, an online parent forum that enables parents to share experiences and connect with others facing similar situations.
"In our previous research, teens reported that foremost among the reasons they don't use drugs is because they don't want to disappoint their parents," said Pasierb. We want to help parents and caregivers understand that they are a huge influence on the choices kids make for themselves and TimeToTalk.org can give them access to the information, tools and resources to help parents make these conversations an ongoing part of their everyday lives. Educating youth about the dangers of drugs and alcohol is an ongoing job; one that parents, caregivers, schools and members of the community must all do together."

But isn't it reduced to 250 something? A normal kill is worth 300.
Player Support Tech Specialist
I believe OP is talking about preseason 4 changes where you get 280 gold for first blood before 4 minutes
Needles K
if I first blood at opponent at 3.58mins, but he has an ignite on me whih kills me at 4mins, he gets more gold than me even if I got the 1st blood. Is this correct for the new changes?
The way I understand it, kills in general are going to be worth less? Right now it's 300g down to 30g. The S4 values might be like 175g down to 20g? Then FB would be +65, down from +100 now?

Ashton Kutcher's Jobs to open nationwide on August 16th
Try to contain your excitement -- Ashton Kutcher's new movie Jobs, which previewed to somewhat tepid reviews towards the beginning of 2013 -- will be hitting theaters nationwide on Friday, August 16th.
Open Road Films was originally aiming for an April 19th release date, but decided to delay the release somewhat due to the fact they weren't able to generate a lot of "buzz" about the movie. Now the production company has two months to turn on the hype machine, get a media campaign up and running and try to get you to reach for a wallet (virtual or not) and buy a ticket.
Jobs is the first real biopic based on the life and times of the former Apple CEO. Funny or Die's iSteve was apparently quite awful and was also attempting to be a comedy, so it's not being counted as a serious movie. Another biopic based on Walter Isaacson's biography Steve Jobs is apparently in the works, but isn't expected for at least another year or two.

Maxted was part of last season's successful youth team, while he also featured on the bench for the first team on seven occasions.
"It feels amazing," Maxted told the club's official website. "Just being part of the first team is unbelievable. I want to follow in Gary Woods' footsteps really, he came here when he was younger and got into the team and I just want to do the same.
"Last season the way we played gave us all a lot of confidence and I think the lads coming through the system now can look up to us and believe that they can get pro contracts too."
