Charles Lieberman, the founder of Advisors Capital Management, has developed a successful equity-oriented strategy that is geared toward investors at or near retirement and designed to provide generous income.
That approach, called "income with growth," uses a mix of publicly traded securities, including master limited partnerships, real-estate investment trusts, and high-dividend stocks to construct portfolios that provide a yield to investors after fees of about 5.5%. This strategy has returned 7.8% annually since 2001, ahead of a 4.3% yearly increase in an 80/20 blend of stocks and bonds. The goal is to find stocks whose dividends will increase over time and therefore allow an investor to preserve principal during retirement. "Income with growth" is one of six strategies employed by Advisors Capital Management, a Hasbrouck Heights, N.J., firm that now runs more than $400 million.
Lieberman, 64, was a leading economist at banks such as Manufacturers Hanover in the 1980s and early 1990s; he later teamed with Salomon Brothers' noted economist Henry Kaufman to form a hedge fund before launching Advisors Capital in 1999. As an economist, Lieberman appeared regularly in Barron's.
"I'm fearful that rates are going to rise...and create one of the largest bear markets in bonds in a long time." -- Charles Lieberman Peter Murphy for Barron's
Fearful of a sharp rise in rates, Lieberman generally is steering clear of Treasuries, mortgage securities, municipal bonds, top-grade corporate debt, and preferred stock. He believes that the housing recovery has a long way to go, and he has identified stocks he calls "twofers" that should benefit from a better housing market and continued low natural-gas prices.
The firm manages client money in separate accounts. It has no mutual fund. It takes investments as little as $100,000, although portfolio customization requires a $250,000 minimum. For more on the firm's distinctive approach, read on.
Barron's: How is the firm run?
Lieberman: Our strategies are based on client objectives and risk tolerance, not Morningstar-style boxes like value or growth, or small-cap or large-cap stocks. We don't care about style boxes because clients don't care. They just want the asset value to go up, and so we organize our portfolio offerings from "growth" to "growth with income" to "income with growth" to "fixed income," to give clients a spectrum to choose from based on their risk tolerance and objectives.
How many securities are in each client portfolio?
Anywhere from 30 to 50. We buy individual securities and avoid the fees associated with mutual funds or exchange-traded funds. With ETFs, you get a whole gamut of securities—the good, the bad, and everything in between. What we try to do for clients is pick the best and avoid the worst.
What's your annual fee? Is it around 1%?
It's a bit more than that for smaller accounts, and it can be less for large accounts. We are less expensive than most mutual funds, even though we effectively are creating a personalized, tailored mutual fund for each client. There is no commission on our transactions. We are not a brokerage firm. We don't get paid by anyone other than the client, so our entire focus is on the client. We, in fact, are on roughly 25 broker/dealer platforms, including Fidelity's.
Give us a sense of your strategies.
We may use securities of the same or related companies in different strategies. For example, we own Kinder Morgan KMI -0.19216910881575786% Kinder Morgan Inc.

"Income with growth" is your most popular strategy. How does it work?
The portfolio has income as its primary objective. Growth of that income and growth of the value of the portfolio are secondary objectives. So, the universe of investments includes master limited partnerships, real-estate investment trusts, preferred stock, bonds, and dividend-paying common stock.
What do you like now?
We consider MLPs to be one of the most attractive income-producing areas right now. We like BreitBurn Energy Partners bbep -6.521739130434782% BreitBurn Energy Partners L.P. U.S.: Nasdaq USD7.31 -0.51 -6.521739130434782% /Date(1419285600075-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 4449368 AFTER HOURS USD7.3 -0.01 -0.13679890560875513% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 12528 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 1596147995.8534 Dividend Yield 28.448700410396718% Rev. per Employee 1518670 More quote details and news » [BBEP], an oil and gas producer. Gas prices are very low, but the company has locked in a lot of its future revenue by hedging. Like many producers, it's shifting production to oil from gas. When BreitBurn buys oil and gas properties, it tends to hedge future production out to as far as three to four years. So there's a lot of visibility to the earnings stream, and that gives us confidence in the yield, which is 9.6%.
What other MLPs do you like?
Energy Transfer Partners etp 0.3334391870435059% Energy Transfer Partners L.P. U.S.: NYSE USD63.19 0.21 0.3334391870435059% /Date(1419285896783-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1167313 AFTER HOURS USD63.19 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 46477 P/E Ratio 283.87241689128484 Market Cap 22111144245.4153 Dividend Yield 6.171862636493116% Rev. per Employee 4089240 More quote details and news » [ETP], which has a yield of about 8%. It's a big company, a classic pipeline with lots of growth opportunities. It recently did a significant acquisition in buying Sunoco. Companies like ETP are doing a lot of investment in pipeline infrastructure to bring domestic oil and gas to market.
What do you think of REITs?
The popular parts of the REIT space, including shopping malls and apartments, have been bid up by investors desperate for yield, and they no longer look attractive. We have turned to some of the more esoteric parts of the REIT universe to get a little more yield. We like Sun Communities SUI 0.1408891671884784% Sun Communities Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD63.97 0.09 0.1408891671884784% /Date(1419285766058-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 293926 AFTER HOURS USD63.97 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 6957 P/E Ratio 73.33486185945202 Market Cap 3066878744.05975 Dividend Yield 4.064405189932781% Rev. per Employee 369710 More quote details and news » [SUI], which operates mobile-home parks and yields 6.1%. It's a little like an apartment play because many people forced out of single-family homes during the recession ended up in mobile homes. There are very few mobile-home-park operators.
Mortgage REITs yield a lot now as their share prices have come down. Any favorites?
We like American Capital Agency AGNC 0.5158107198923525% American Capital Agency Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD22.41 0.115 0.5158107198923525% /Date(1419285600135-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 3298424 AFTER HOURS USD22.41 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 56313 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 7865430814.57436 Dividend Yield 11.78045515394913% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » [AGNC]. The yield is about 16%. The company hedges a lot of the interest-rate risk in its portfolio, and it's more selective than other mortgage REITs about the mortgages it buys. The result is that its prepayments have been lower than others in the industry, and its cash flows have held up a lot better.
Is the dividend sustainable?
The stock is priced as if the dividend is going to be cut in half. The dividend should largely remain in place until the Federal Reserve is ready to start raising interest rates, and at that point we would be looking to get out.
Anything else in REITs?
Hotels. The sector got hit pretty hard in the 2008-09 recession, and, as a result, very little building has been taking place. Occupancy has increased quite sharply since the recession, as have room rates. So earnings and cash flow are coming back very strongly. We like Hospitality Properties Trust hpt 1.3629160063391441% Hospitality Properties Trust U.S.: NYSE USD31.98 0.43 1.3629160063391441% /Date(1419285709967-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 760274 AFTER HOURS USD31.98 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 6646 P/E Ratio 31.209134380794378 Market Cap 4729313401.10855 Dividend Yield 6.1288305190744214% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » [HPT], with a dividend yield of 7.6%, and Ashford Hospitality Trust aht 1.7941454202077431% Ashford Hospitality Trust Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD10.78 0.19 1.7941454202077431% /Date(1419285893240-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 440824 AFTER HOURS USD10.78 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 14828 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 947211976.233521 Dividend Yield 4.452690166975882% Rev. per Employee 9889980 More quote details and news » [AHT], yielding about 4%. They fly many of the major hotel brands in their portfolios.
How about electric utilities?
We've severely curtailed our exposure. The stocks rallied quite a bit in 2010 and 2011, and, as a result, the yields have come down pretty sharply to an average of about 4%. We do own Pepco Holdings pom -0.44776119402985076% Pepco Holdings Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD26.68 -0.12 -0.44776119402985076% /Date(1419285829782-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1936922 AFTER HOURS USD26.68 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 26528 P/E Ratio 25.409523809523808 Market Cap 6751107345.65201 Dividend Yield 4.047976011994003% Rev. per Employee 965373 More quote details and news » [POM], a Middle Atlantic utility yielding above 5%.
Anything in telecom?
We own Vodafone Group vod -0.1139925904816187% Vodafone Group PLC ADS U.S.: Nasdaq USD35.05 -0.04 -0.1139925904816187% /Date(1419285600181-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 4705491 AFTER HOURS USD35.05 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 151758 P/E Ratio 1.2023407626746356 Market Cap 93260711563.7498 Dividend Yield 3.220793152639087% Rev. per Employee 746251 More quote details and news » [VOD], now yielding about 6%, and Frontier Communications ftr 1.0416666666666667% Frontier Communications Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD6.79 0.07 1.0416666666666667% /Date(1419285600084-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 7260727 AFTER HOURS USD6.84 0.05 0.7363770250368189% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 571526 P/E Ratio 35.73684210526316 Market Cap 6733984067.09879 Dividend Yield 5.891016200294551% Rev. per Employee 338649 More quote details and news » [FTR], at 9%. Frontier bought a whole bunch of Verizon phone lines, and it hopes to cross sell other products to those customers. Vodafone is a play on Verizon Wireless [it owns a 45% stake in the country's top wireless carrier].
What other high-dividend stocks appeal to you?
We look for companies with high yields that can increase their dividends over time. A good example is Aircastle ayr -0.24108003857280616% Aircastle Ltd. U.S.: NYSE USD20.69 -0.05 -0.24108003857280616% /Date(1419285852245-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 196694 AFTER HOURS USD20.69 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 4106 P/E Ratio 20.485148514851485 Market Cap 1678654174.89517 Dividend Yield 4.253262445625906% Rev. per Employee 8045140 More quote details and news » [AYR], which is a growing aircraft-leasing company yielding over 5%, with a price/earnings ratio of 7.5.

It has rising cash flows and the clear potential to raise dividends. Regal Entertainment Group rgc 1.1159631246967492% Regal Entertainment Group Cl A U.S.: NYSE USD20.84 0.23 1.1159631246967492% /Date(1419285774669-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 333040 AFTER HOURS USD20.84 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 4593 P/E Ratio 38.592592592592595 Market Cap 3218738719.63475 Dividend Yield 4.222648752399232% Rev. per Employee 121107 More quote details and news » [RGC] operates movie theaters and has excellent cash flow, a solid yield of over 5%, and a history of paying special dividends.
Talk about your concept of twofers.
The housing story remains underappreciated in the stock market. This is where having an economics background has been an enormous benefit. What many people don't realize is that most housing demand comes from household formation, and that was severely constrained in the recession when kids couldn't get jobs out of school and moved back home with Mom and Dad. As a result, there is a tremendous backlog of household formation, which should run at roughly 1.4 million per year. So we've got a lot of catch-up to go with housing demand, and there are still a lot of housing opportunities. Another one of our investment themes is cheap natural gas, which is helping many U.S. manufacturers. One twofer is Trex trex 1.1801541425818882% Trex Co. Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD42.01 0.49 1.1801541425818882% /Date(1419285722371-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 155200 AFTER HOURS USD42.01 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1998 P/E Ratio 26.843450479233226 Market Cap 1328889156.19171 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 646253 More quote details and news » (TREX), which makes composite-wood decking. Natural gas is a critical element in the production process.
Where does it trade?
The stock is up dramatically, and we have owned it for a while. It has gone from the upper single digits to almost $40, but it's still attractive. The company is operating at a low rate of capacity utilization. The Street consensus for 2013 is $2.41 a share. We think there is at least $6 per share or more of annual earnings potential a couple of years from now.
Give us another twofer.
Georgia Gulf [GGC]. It makes PVC plastic piping, which is used in housing construction. So it's a play on the housing market, and natural gas is an important element in the production process. So we get the benefit of both investment themes working on our behalf.
How is it valued?
It's now around $45. The consensus earnings estimate for this year is about $4.75, but Georgia Gulf has $6 or $7 a share in earnings power within a few years.
Do any of the major home builders appeal to you?
NVR. nvr -0.06875020220647708% NVR Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD1235.51 -0.85 -0.06875020220647708% /Date(1419285615804-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 45004 AFTER HOURS USD1235.51 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1349 P/E Ratio 19.230984749197614 Market Cap 5064130740.53329 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 1105150 More quote details and news » It's a Middle Atlantic-based home builder that managed to remain profitable right through the credit crisis because of its differentiated business model. Most home builders buy land and then inventory it until they are ready to build. NVR options land. It pays an option fee to the landowner for the right to be able to buy the land at a later date. It doesn't have as much capital tied up in land inventory. That flexibility served the company well during the credit crisis, because it didn't have massive write-downs of land inventory.
Obviously, the housing market is recovering, and so is NVR's business. It has tremendous cash flow, and because NVR doesn't have to inventory land, it has been able to buy back stock [NVR]. The share count has shrunk dramatically over the course of many years.
The stock trades close to $1,000. It's expected to earn about $50 a share this year. What kind of earnings power does it have?
North of $100 a share a year or two out.
What do you think about the bond market?
Our fixed-income portfolios are almost devoid of Treasuries and mortgage securities, and we have minimal holdings of munis and high-grade corporates. Our whole strategy is to trade off interest-rate risk for credit risk. We want to minimize interest-rate risk, and we are willing to accept more credit risk. If the economy does well, credit spreads should continue to tighten.
How are your bond accounts invested?
Largely in double-B and triple-B corporate bonds with short maturities in 2013, 2014, and 2015. The average maturity of our fixed-income portfolios is less than 2½ years. I'm very fearful that interest rates are going to rise significantly in the next few years, and create one of the largest bear markets in bonds in a long time. Interest rates obviously are at historic lows, and that's unsustainable. As the economy improves and unemployment reverts to more normal levels, the fed-funds rate could rise to 4%. In that environment, the 10-year Treasury could easily yield 5% or 6% [it now yields less than 2%], and the rest of the bond market would trade off that.
So, all the bonds that people are looking at today have the potential to decline pretty dramatically in value over the next couple of years.
That's a pretty bearish scenario. How would you sum up your strategy?
We are a "world cap" manager. The world is our oyster. We can go everywhere, look at any investment, as long as it makes sense and we are comfortable with the risk.
Thanks, Chuck.

Reviving the lapsed RA filesPaul, · Categories: Alumni and other friends, General, Information Commons
A friend writes that he is tired of old recordings he made and digitized sounding like crap. The problem is that they were digitized using early versions of RealAudio when doing any sound at all that you could receive over dial-up was a welcome accomplishment. Now we expect more. Much more. At least MP3.
But so many of us, including collections on ibiblio, went straight to .ra files that much of that information will be lost soon as technology improves and our demands for quality increase.
Saving sounds and pictures in proprietary formats like .ra wasn't brilliant but it seemed the only way at the time.
In the Internet Poetry Archive, we have rare readings by Czeslaw Milosz and Margaret Walker for example. You will hear them in .ra, but I have tapes hidden here in a safe place. But not safe enough. They need to be in an atmospherically controlled archive. A few more years and the tapes will be sticky.
While I'm at it: Does anyone know a a way to migrate from .ra to any other format? I know the quality will be terrible, but to have the sound at all would be great.
One idea is to take the audio out from a computer playing the .ra and route it into the audio in of another computer capturing the audio.
5 Responses to "Reviving the lapsed RA files"
i've used something called http://all-streaming-media.com/ where there are lots of other options for recording and converting files.
dunno what happened there, Real7ime's url should have been: http://r7cproj.euro.ru/indexe.htm
Other suggestions have been:
I suggest using Audio Hijack from Rogue Amoeba Software http://www.rogueamoeba.com/ (Mac only)
Just play the ra file and record it to AIFF all without having to leave the computers audio out and becoming analog. Once you have a new file universal file type (AIFF) use Sound Soap by Bias software http://www.bias-inc.com/products/soundsoap/ It's supposed to do magic with noisy audio.
At http://all-streaming-media.com/ they suggest to use Streambox Ripper and Xillisoft Video Converter

Blue Skies and a Fluffy BathMy favorite of LUSH's bubble bars is Blue Skies and Fluffy White Clouds (pictured). One bar will give you at least 4 bubble-filled baths, light blue water, and the most divine incense smell. This is definitely my favorite relaxation bath, and the fragrance will linger on your skin all day. This one also leaves your skin soft and smooth without making you greasy. I recommend placing your bubble bar...read more chunk in an organza bag or the foot of an old pantyhose and hanging it off your faucet for lots of bubbles; I've also read that grating the bubble bars will yield lots of lovely bubbles. — 6 years, 7 months agoferncool | 29 reviews

Sparkles!I used the orange one with gold sparkles. I loved the sheen that swirled in the water. There were tons of bubbles too. You have to hold the peice of the bat in your hand and crumble it in the stream from the faucet though, or nothing happens. The cirtus smell wasen't the gratest, but it didn't linger after the bath. — 6 years, 8 months agostrangewings | 6 reviews

I can't say enough good things about Lush!!!It would be fair to say that I am a complete Lush addict! If I could I'd buy & try EVERY SINGLE LUSH PRODUCT!! However, since I can't afford that - I purchase some and get samples of others whenever I can. The main thing that drew me to Lush cosmetics is that ALL products are hand-made, fresh and natural. They moisturize wonderfully and most scents are HEAVENLY! Taking a very rela...read morexing, sensual and purely great for your skin bubble bath, using one or a mixture of several Lush Bubble Bars, Bath Bombs (Ballistics) or wonderfully moisturizing and scented Bath Melts is an experience I regret missing & not knowing about since Lush opened - all those wasted years are killing me!! As you can see - I truly LOVE Lush!!! I'd work for their products! Lush Bubble Bars are simply WONDERFUL!!! They are not cheap, ranging on average around $7.00 per Bar, but when you think of all the work, all the natural ingredients and essential oils, and a bathtub filled with all those gorgeous bubbles - relaxing you immediately & transporting you to another universe just by crumbling VERY LITTLE - often less than one quarter of the bar, that's all it takes - I think the price is WELL worth it. It's one experience for which both your body & soul will thank you! My favorite Lush Bubble Bars (even though I love them all) are THE COMFORTER, closely followed by KARMA (oh that fragrance!! Even my husband loves it!), MA BAR, HOT MILK, CREAMY CANDY, BATHOS, FRENCH KISS, AMANDOPONDO, etc. There were more which I can't recall the names of at the moment - but sadly they were discontinued. I remember one which had rose petals inside of it and its scent was heavenly - not overwhelming, just RIGHT! I could go on and on about Lush Bubble Bars, and still couldn't praise them enough (such is the case of many Lush products!) - but until you try one for yourself (for the first-timer I highly recommend THE COMFORTER, which you can find here: http://usa.lush.com/cgi-bin/lushdb/2468) - you'll never know what you're missing and I assure you - if you try it you won't regret it, you'll be very pleased and possibly hooked on for life just like me! I'll end the review of the Lush Bubble Bars with a quote about what exactly they are - just in case someone who's reading this doesn't know about them, but would like to try THE MOST AWESOME BATH OF THEIR LIFE: "Bubble bars are the first-ever solid bath foam, and a LUSH original invention. Unlike liquid bubble bath, our bubble bars contain no preservatives to damage the environment, or harsh surfactants to irritate the skin. Crumble one under running bath water for a tub full of luxuriously soft, scented bubbles." Try them - you won't regret it! While you're at it - try a Lush Bath Bomb (also known as Bath Ballistic) - and you'll be hooked on Lush products - and pleasantly surprised, elated every time you take a shower! Lush has THE BEST soaps I have ever tried in my life!!! Any soap you'd like to try out - just ask the customer service person in the store to give you a sample - and they will cut you a generous portion of the chosen soap! That's truly great customer service, no wonder they have me hooked - everything about Lush is wonderful!!!! Also, Lush Massage Bars are to die for!! Not oily but very smooth, sensual & relaxing, and they have a range for whatever your need is - whether you want some romance or you'd like to loosen those sore muscles from a day of hard work - one of great scented Lush Massage Bars will work for you! And you'll be coming back for more! Some smell like candy, and the others like citrus...so it caters to every taste! All their products are like that, so everyone can find something to suit them (and often several things, sometimes more than they came to the store for hehee....) For me - and many other LUSH lovers - there is no better experience in shopping than visiting a LUSH Store and exploring all the wonders of it! Please do that at your earliest opportunity - I promise you'll come back hooked and you'll have the most wonderful bath, shower & massage experience of your life!!!! I am not exaggerating, it's really a great place with great nature-friendly products! GO LUSH!!!

Luxurious!I adore these bubble bars! A bit pricey, but, like others, I break off pieces and never use the whole bar at once. Lovely colored bubbles. Does not dry my skin out like other bubble baths, either. — 6 years, 10 months agoden_thomp961 | 22 reviews
Best product EVER!I absolutely LOVE Lush products. The bubble bars can be used for at least three baths and smell amazing. The bubbles leave you feeling soft and smelling great. — 6 years, 10 months agomaralex | 5 reviews
the best bubble bath everBlue Skies bubble bar is absolutely the best bubble bath I have ever tried. Half a bar creates mounds of long-lasting bubbles, while leaving the water with a silky and moisturizing feel. The scent is earthy and comforting, with a bit of patchouli. A ten dollar bubble bath is a bit of a luxury, but it's definitely worth it. — 7 years agopippilotta77 | 30 reviews
Love the ComforterSmells soooooooooo good, is pretty, and I get several uses out of one. — 7 years agoleopardgirl_23 | 5 reviews
The bubbliestLush makes the best smelling bubble bath I've ever met, and i love that the packaging is so minimal! I know that I'm paying for great quality ingredients instead of fancy cardboard. One bar lasts for 4 baths or so, and the bubbles are fluffy and plentiful and delicious! — 7 years, 1 month agoanabel | 3 reviews

Sports Anchor Leaving WCBS, Lightening Workload to Focus on Family
Daily News
Since the beginning of the year, Sam Ryan has been Ch. 2′s main sports anchor while also working for CBS Sports, which created a workload far beyond what she expected when she started in 2006.
That will end Aug. 27, when she gives up the Ch. 2 gig to focus on anchoring college sports Saturday on CBS College Sports and work for the cable net's "NFL Today."
"In order to balance being a mom, a working mom," she said, "something had to give."
So after some handwringing, negotiating and more, what gives is the work at Ch. 2, and what she gets is more time with her husband, Jensen, and 7-year-old son, Nicklaus.

This exercise is in optimizing damage on charges. This is with a barbarian, of course, since barbarians get a free charge attack or two per combat. The build is quite playable from 1st through 30th, and offers both high DPR and very good combat control.
The basics:
Model LT - Warforged Barbarian (multiclass fighter) / Warforged Juggernaut / Demigod or Chosen
Starting Stats: Str 18, Dex 14, Con 16, Wis 13
Ending Stats: Str 28, Dex 24, Con 18, Wis 15
There's a lot of ways of optimizing a charge. You can mix and match based on your personal preferences, so I'll just sort them by tier.
Heroic Tier:
Howling Strike (Barbarian at-will that deals +1d6 damage, and can be used on a charge attack, increases to +2d6 at 11th and 2[W]+3d6 at 21st)
Vanguard Weapon (+1d8 to charge damage, and a daily party buff)
Lancing Gloves (+2 to damage while mounted, later replaced by better gloves)
Powerful Charge (+2 to charge damage)
Horned Helm (+1d6/+2d6/+3d6 to charge damage)
Boots of Adept Charging (shift 1 after a charge)
Fast Runner (+2 to speed when charging or running - don't take if you will be mounted)
Mounted Combat (+5 to charge damage when on a warhorse, or +2d6 on a celestial charger - other mounts like elephants allow you to charge and have them attack at the same time. I prefer Obsidian Steeds, since they're portable.)
Greatspear Weapon Proficiency (+3 to hit / 1d10 weapon, weapon of choice for this build)
Power Attack (-2 to hit, +9 to damage - useful if we can push our +to-hit up high enough to only miss on a 1, which is actually pretty easy with this build)
Polearm Momentum (knock prone when pushing 2 or more)
Warforged Tactics (+1 to hit when an ally is adjacent to the opponent, which makes charging into the flank even better)
Weapon Focus (+1/+2/+3 to damage with greatspear)
Weapon Expertise (+1/+2/+3 to hit, in PHB2)
Battle Awareness (free attack on an opponent once per encounter, and opens up Surprising Charge, power swaps, and Warforged Juggernaut)
Fighter Power Swap Feats. Harrier's Ploy is incredibly good for a level 1 daily (shift 7 squares away from an opponent whenever he moves). Quicksilver stance is pretty good (though you'll have a similar stance through Juggernaut). The level 22 fighter utility Howl of Defiance that marks all targets in a close burst 5 and grants CA for the entire encounter is another exceptional option for this build. Rain of Blows, of course, is quite decent for a low level spear fighter, though barbarians get better powers by paragon.
Paragon Tier:
Warforged Juggernaut (+1d6/+2d6 charge damage + push 1 and follow on a charge, among other benefits like +2 to speed and defenses when charging, ignoring difficult terrain, etc.)
If you don't want to be a Juggernaut (if you're not a warforged, especially), Shock Trooper is just as good (+Dex to damage on CA opponents), except it doesn't add a Push 1 to all charge attacks.
Thundergod Greatspear (+1d6/+2d6 charge damage). The +2d6 epic version is better than Vanguard weapon, but Vanguard has a semi-useful daily ability.
Spear Push (+1 push)
Frostcheese (Wintertouched + Lasting Frost frostcheese works just as well with a charger as anyone else, and is useful for getting CA for the next feat)
Surprising Charge (+1[W] damage when charging a surprised or CAed foe)
Fleet footed (+1 to speed). Don't need if you are using mounted combat
Epic Tier:
Mobile Warrior (shift 1 square after any attack with a spear)
Spear Mastery (19-20 crit)
Unstoppable Charge (your turn does not end after charging)
Optional Feats:
Seize the Moment, Secret Stride, Polearm Gamble, Pin Down, Improved Initiative, Dirty Fighting, Devastating Critical, Blood Thirst, Back to the Wall, Defensive Advantage, Defensive Mobility (for when not raging), Against the Odds, most of the Warforged feats, and others are all worthy options to substitute in.
For example, Pin Down can be game breaking by using the autoknockdown abilities of the barbarian combined with a grasping greatspear and the build's high fort and ref defenses. You charge a guy, push them one square, knock them prone, then action point grab them. They can't move and are stuck prone until they escape the grab. When in elite or solo combats, this is game-breaking. Especially, I've found, if you're holding the bad guy in the middle of a blade barrier. =)
The Model LT is built in Luskan, and trained in athletics, stealth, thievery, and perception. He actually makes a pretty decent substitute thief, but I just wanted him to be able to gain surprise on enemies to trigger surprising charge and then the frostcheese combo.
The powers you take don't especially matter beyond Howling Strike, since they're all pretty good. You'll have 3 rages per day, with the following options for rages: knocking an enemy prone at the start of your turn, +to speed, knocking an enemy prone on a hit (or adding +Con to damage), adding +Con to damage on bloodied enemies, adding +to hit for all bloodied enemies, adding +to hit for all enemies in sight, turning insubstantial when bloodied, etc. Lots of good options.
I outfitted the level 30 version of Model LT with the following items:
+6 Thundergod Greatspear
+6 Displacer Elderhide Armor (forces a reroll of all attacks on him, which helps cloak of invis last longer)
+6 Iron Armbands of Power (+6 to melee damage)
Rushing Cleats (+1 push) or Zephyr Boots (flying)
Gauntlets of Destruction (brutal 1 on all damage) or Frost Gauntlets (immobilize 1/encounter and +6 frost damage to all attacks)
Horned Helm (+3d6 charge damage)
+6 Cloak of Distortion (+5 to defenses against ranged attacks from 5+ squares away)
Shadow Band (concealment all day / daily: total concealment all encounter)
Star Opal Ring (+1 to speed / daily teleport 10) when not mounted
Ring of Ramming (+1 push) or War Ring (+1d12 on a critical)
Obsidian Steed / Warhorse (+5 to charge damage) or Celestial Charger (+2d6 charge damage) or Rhino or Elephant mount with Skystrider Horseshoes (fly 8 for mount) or Impenetrable Barding (Resist 30 on mount)
Frozen Whetsones (+6 frost damage, activates frostcheese without needing frost weapon)
Totemic Belt (daily: +1 to hit all encounter)
Charge Bonus to hit:
+15 level
+9 strength
+3 weapon proficiency
+6 weapon enhancement bonus
+1 charging
+2 combat advantage
+1 Warforged Tactics
+3 Weapon Expertise
+40 base
(And unlike a lot of builds on here, it will actually get CA, instead of pretending it will always get CA.)
If using dailies:
+Number of enemies in area (Untyped bonus; Rage of the Primal Beast - earlier you can add +Number of bloodied enemies in area with a lower level rage)
+1 Totemic Belt (power bonus)
+Number of bloodied enemies in area (Untyped bonus; Waxing Fortune from Chosen ED)
Depending on the number of opponents, this puts us high enough to only be missing on 1s, so we can use power attack:
-2 to hit
Final bonus to hit: +50 or so for a normal combat.
Charge Speed:
10 flying when on foot, 8 flying when mounted.
Charge Damage (all untyped unless noted):
2d10+3d6 Howling Strike (when raging, movement does not provoke OAs)
+9 Strength
+6 weapon enhancement bonus
+1d10 Surprising Charge
+2d6 Warforged Juggernaut + Push 1
+3d6 Horned Helm
+2d6 thunder damage from Thundergod Weapon
+2d6 mounted on Celestial Charger
+6 bracers
+1 totemic belt (power bonus)
+6 cold (whetstone or frost gauntlets)
+5 frost vulnerability (frostcheese)
+2 Powerful Charge
+3 Weapon Focus (feat bonus)
+9 Power Attack
+7.5 gauntlets of destruction (or +18 damage if you want to use bloodclaw spiked gauntlet cheese).
=3d10+12d6+54.5 cold and thunder damage, or 112 damage on a charge, 123.5 if you believe in using bloodclaw cheese. If we're using one of the rages that adds +Con to damage, increase the damage by +4.
The target is also pushed 4 squares and knocked prone. If Madden was announcing, he'd say, "Ooh! That was a big hit!" We can then shift one, and if all we have done so far in the round is charge, we can then move back 8 squares, and leave the target in a bad position: prone and 13 squares away.
It's great control. =)
Earlier on (11th level), you can do something similar by power swapping in Harrier's Ploy. When the enemy moves, you get to shift away 7 squares as a reaction. Then you can charge him again, push him and knock him prone, and then move away again. All combat long.
Crit damage (10% crit chance):
149 cold and thunder damage
+6d12 thunder
+1d10 devastating critical
+1d12 war ring
=194 damage, or 212 with bloodclaw cheese.
DPR Analysis
Let's look at our DPR so far, since the CO boards seem unhealthily obsessed with this number (even though things like the automatic knockdown and escape, in practice, is MUCH more valuable than 10 DPR either way). Since bloodclaw cheese seems standard in DPR calculations, I'll use that number here: 5% miss chance + 10% crit chance + 85% normal hit chance = .1 * 212 + .85 * 123.5 = 126.175 DPR
Plus, we'll activate either Quicksilver Stance or the Warforged Juggernaut stance in most serious combats.
Quicksilver stance gives a bonus melee basic attack every round, and Juggernaut is the same, but no strength. Quicksilver stance deals 74 on a hit (128 on a crit), Juggernaut 48 damage per target, but no attack roll. Quicksilver is worth .10 * 128 + .85 * 74 = +75.7 DPR, Juggernaut a flat +48 DPR * the number of targets adjacent.
If he crits with an attack, he gets a bonus melee basic attack (74 damage / 128 crit) once per round. With two attacks at 10% crit rate, there's a 19% chance of picking up this bonus attack each round. This adds another .19 * 75.7 = +14.383 DPR.
Total DPR = 216.258 DPR using nothing but at-will attacks during a serious fight.
If you want to start throwing in situational factors, like Back to the Wall or Sigils of Companionship, it can inch up a bit higher, though I think it's pretty good as-is.
Note: this is all sustained damage, just counting on having a stance and a rage up during each serious fight (which he can do 3 and 2 times per day, respectively). Plus you get the fun of picking up a large handful of dice and throwing them on the table. Ever since 4ed turned fireball into a lame 3d6 spell, my cube of d6s has felt unloved.
The option of using a mount is an interesting one - dungeons are often not designed for mounts, but an Obsidian steed lets one sneak them in a lot of times, and a celestial charger with impenetrable barding or skyriders on adds a lot to a combat. Oddly enough, we can actually move faster on foot while charging, but being mounted has a number of advantages, such as our reach increasing from a 5x5 area to 6x6, and giving monsters the chance to waste their actions attacking a mount with Resist 30 All. Using a mount also frees up your foot slot if you put Skyriders on your horse.
You might note I didn't post any encounter powers. That's because no encounter powers are really relevant to the build (though there's a few that can be used while charging for a bit of extra damage and status ailments). Tailor them to your own preferences. There's also a lot of good choices in rages, which will depend on your tactical environment. Depending on how you pick your feats, you can probably take the warforged racial feats/powers, which are very good from a survivability standpoint.
He's not going to be nearly as fragile as most barbarians. AC 43, Fort 42, Ref 38, Will 34, but with displacer armor and a cloak of distortion, his defense is actually going to be a lot higher. Especially when you combine it with his control. Let's say he's fighting Orcus. Orcus is flying 15 squares up, so he charges him on his flying steed and knocks him out of the air and pushes him horizontally 4 squares and leaves him prone on the ground. He's out of the reach of Orcus's necrotic burst, and any ranged attacks that Orcus had that could reach him (which he doesn't) would be at -5 to hit from the cloak of distortion, and would have to be rolled twice due to the displacer armor. All encounter long. So Orcus is looking at about a 30% hit chance to hit Fort, and about a 50% chance to hit Ref, and, well, he'll hit Will. While this isn't incredibly impressive, it's a barbarian, which is the most fragile class in the game. The charge + push + retreat combination alone is enough to leave a monster prone and 15 squares away from the barbarian every round.
If you have your all-encounter total concealment ring running, then your defenses are +5 better. With Secret Stride (no penalty to moving in stealth), you could feasibly even avoid being targeted.
Tactical Analysis
I've been playing a barbarian in LFR (not this build), so I've seen how barbarians work out in practice. A typical opening round for the Model LT would be to: fail initiative, let the rest of the party go on ahead and get ambushed, come in at the end of the order, charge a monster the other PCs have damaged, hit it for 100 damage or so, putting it down, taking a free action to shift and charge the enemy controller hovering in the back ground, critting him for 200 damage (and a free basic attack for 70 damage) and knocking him 4 squares away and prone, followed by a Spur the Cycle charge for another 100 damage and push 4, followed up by an action point charge into him AGAIN, hitting for another 100 and another push 4, and then spending a move action to shift and back away 11 squares out of his ability to do anything in retaliation. He ends his turn next to the party fighter, who has marked another monster. The monster attacks the fighter, Model LT makes a free melee basic attack in response (if the monster went after LT, the fighter would get a free attack - fun, huh?) and hitting that monster for another 70 damage. End of the round - no daily, or item powers activated, just an action point and a couple encounter abilities, and he's killed one guy, knocked the enemy controller prone and out of attack range on the party (and hit him four times in a round for about 500 damage!), and finished off by whacking a monster that was daring to go after the party tank.
If you have a spare Quick weapon and power swap in one of the fighter free action encounter attack powers, you could even get a couple more hits in if you felt like it.
That's how they roll. It's actually a pretty fun class to play. At the end of that round, you'd have rolled close to 100 dice. =)
Non-charging DPR
If you don't want to charge, you can always use demigod loop cheese (at 30th) to attack with Hurricane of Blades each round. It works out to about 70 DPR per attack, with 6 attacks (and a 50% chance for a crit to grant a bonus 76 DPR, so another +38DPR there) and Quicksilver Stance for another 76DPR, for about 536 DPR sustained through the fight. It's certainly not bad, but 1) I dislike demigod loops and 2) Charging is more fun, and adds a lot more control to the battlefield.

Fall 2014 Classes:
Wednesday, October 15, 2014 – THERE'S A LITTLE GERMAN IN ALL OF US
- Roasted Beet Salad Medley with Mustard Vinaigrette and Spinach
- German-Style Braised Pork Ribs in Beer Kraut and Steamed Red Skinned Potatoes
- Schwarzwalder Kirschtorte (Black Forest Cherry Cake)
From Chef Ray: Today we will be cooking food from my German heritage. We start by roasting a trio of beets and serving them as a warm salad over spinach with a Dusseldorf style mustard vinaigrette. With German food, it almost always has to come to this – KRAUT. Over the summer, I came up with a new kraut recipe. It's only a little sour and a little sweet made with beer, caraway, onions, cider vinegar and Stevia. We'll braise some pork ribs in that until they almost fall off the bone. Served with steamed potatoes, it doesn't get any better. The perfect ending to a perfect German meal has to be the perfect German dessert: the classic Schwarzwalder Kirschtorte. Dark chocolate cake bathed in Kirsch (Cherry Brandy) layered and topped with fresh whipped cream, dark chocolate shavings and Bing Cherries. Hungry yet?
Wednesday, October 22, 2014 – FEEL GOOD FOOD
- Homemade Chicken Soup with Vegetables and Dill
- Yankee Pot Roast with Garden Vegetables and Colcannon Mashed Potatoes
- Poppy Seed Torte
Comfort Food – Home Cookin' – Grandma's Food. Call it what you will. I call it delicious!!! In class today we will explore some of those foods that we are close to. They just make us feel good. Chicken soup warms the body and soothes the soul. It is a proven fact that it helps in healing the common cold. So with fall already here and winter upon us, lets make soup. Talk about comfort food, Pot Roast is it. We will take a budget cut of beef and slow cook it with stock, vegetables and garlic to impart flavor and tenderness. We will serve it sliced and topped with its own gravy made with the pureed vegetables, braising liquid and more vegetables. Accompanying our meal will be Colcannon mashed potatoes. These are perfectly made mashed with butter, cream and sautéed green cabbage. Poppy Seed Torte is a fitting dessert to a feel good meal. Those who haven't had this are in for a treat. It is not really torte or cake as the name implies, rather it is a gelatin dessert made with poppy seeds, whipped cream and a graham cracker crust. It is then cut like a sheet cake and topped with more whipped cream. It is a Wisconsin specialty and reminds me somewhat of Panna Cotta. It is one of my all time favorite desserts. Let's eat!
Wednesday, November 5, 2014 – ASIAN INFLUENCES
- Tea Smoked Shrimp & Snow Peas with Sesame and Scallions
- Spicy Grilled & Curried Chicken Thigh with Stir Fried Vegetables, Madras Curry Potato and Beans and Jasmine Rice with Coconut and Lemongrass
- Avocado Ice Cream
This is not an Asian cooking class but rather a fusion class using the spices and techniques of Asia. In this class you will learn to stir fry in a wok and also how to smoke in a wok. How can you go wrong with shrimp as an appetizer? These tasty morsels will be stir fried then smoked and stir fried again to make one great beginning to today's meal. For the main course, you will need to like spicy. Skinless, boneless chicken thighs (the new chicken breast) will be seasoned with spicy curry and grilled. Then we are back to the wok to stir fry a blend of colorful veggies with Madras (spicy) Curry seasoning. The moist and tender thighs will be served on top of the vegetables and will be accompanied by the aromatic, coconut milk and lemon-grass-seasoned Jasmine rice. After that, we need to cool off our taste buds and ice cream is the fastest way to do it. The natural fat of the avocado will help in the process with its tantalizing texture and mouth feel. You're going to love this one, I promise.
Wednesday, November 19, 2014 – THANKSGIVING ALTERNATIVES
- Cream of Spinach and Watercress Soup
- Braised Duck with Red Wine Currant Sauce, Roasted Fingerling Potatoes and Cauliflower Leek Sauté
- Pumpkin Rum Cheesecake with Black Walnut Crumble and Chocolate Drizzle
A beautiful cream soup is the perfect way to start a fall feast so we will be making it with spinach and watercress. Roasted duck has been my most popular class over the years, but I have only braised a duck in class once. I think it's high time we do it again and serve it with a sweet and savory red wine currant sauce. Accompany this with roasted fingerling potatoes and cauliflower leek sauté and you will have a great alternative to Thanksgiving dinner. For dessert we will put a twist on pumpkin pie and make it as a cheesecake. Add some rum and top it with a black walnut crumble and chocolate and we have one heck of a Thanksgiving ending. Yummy, yummy, yummy.

City of Warren cracks down on brutal mosquito season
Updated On: Jun 16 2014 02:05:00 PM EDT
It looks like a piece of chalk, but it's a tool the city of Warren is using to crack down on the brutal mosquito season.
For weeks, the Department of Public Works has been going to catch basins, sewers -- all 17,500 of them -- and dropping a larvaecide or briquette throughout neighborhoods.
"It's a slow-acting treatment," said Warren Mayor Jim Fouts. "It takes about three months to dissolve in the water of the catch basin, and that chemical will kill any mosquito larva that formed."
After the sewer has been treated, DPW workers mark the location with a pink dot so residents know a treatment has been applied.
Fouts said inspectors will also will look for pools of water in blighted locations or areas where standing water has accumulated, such as pools that haven't been opened. Homeowners will be given a warning and a chance to fix the problem, but could face a $1,000 fine if the water is not taken care of.
"I want Warren residents to be able to enjoy outdoor activities and not worry about the dangers posed by mosquito infestation. This year is of particular concern because of the very heavy rain that this area has encountered in the last several months," Fouts said.
Residents are also encouraged to contact ordinance enforcement if they are aware of vacant homes with pools or other stagnant water, which become breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Ordinance enforcement can be reached online through the city's website or by calling 734-467-3201.
Why are the mosquitoes so bad this year? If you thought Michigan's harsh winter would help the bug season, think again.
"The heavy snowfall left behind lots of water in low-lying areas, which is ideal for mosquitoes to breed," said Howard Russell, a Michigan State University entomologist, and also known as "The Bug Man."
Experts warn the bugs are not only pesky, but potentially deadly.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, West Nile virus is most commonly transmitted to humans by mosquitoes. You can reduce your risk of being infected with WNV by using insect repellent and wearing protective clothing to prevent mosquito bites.

Brother and Sis in law wont let us visit the new baby.
Find a Conversation
|Sat, 06-18-2011 - 5:27am
My brother and his wife recently had their second child. I was always close to this brother until his wife decided that she didnt like our relationship being that close and has since poisened me against him. They seemed to
|Sun, 06-19-2011 - 5:44pm
Since you already bought the baby a lovely outfit and babies outgrow outfits pretty quickly, I'd probably mail it to them with a congratulations on the new baby card.
|Sun, 06-19-2011 - 10:24pm
As to your mom I wouldn't blame you for at least a time out. My mother has alienated my daughter this way. Constantly talking about my oldest and how his current issues are not his fault and everything, everything,Assist everything about him. Even when it was supposed to be 'grandma/granddaughter' outing. It is so bad even my oldest has called her on it and stood up for my daughter. But she burned her bridges with her so to speak. She will not talk,text or write her. She cut off a budding repaired relationship with my aunt because of the proximity of my mother. She tried to tell my mother how she was making her feel. And of course she blamed my daughter. How she wouldn't be hurt if she understood that oldest needed her and daughter doesn't. And how daughter is lucky because she still has parents and her relationship with DD can never be anything like hers and D S. So you can try telling your mom how it hurts you and no more discussions. If she steps over that boundary you can hang up the phone. Tell her to leave your home etc.i
I know you are in pain from what is going on but your brother is doing something many wives wish their husbands would and protect them. They also may be overwhelmed at being parents of two.
If however all this time you were just useful for gifts and money you are better off without them. None of my aunts or uncles paid for any of my classes or activities. That was my parents place if they wanted to put me in them. It sounds like you have been very generous. If you cannot re connect this relationship, please think about sharing your generosity with the children that have no one. I bet you would make their day and yours too.
|Mon, 06-20-2011 - 10:35pm
Don´t you have the slightest idea of what the problem might be? If they send you pictures, I assume they want to share with you the life of the new born kid.
As a previous poster said, mail the gift with a congratulations note and wait to see what happens. You might find out what´s going on, but I guess there's not much else you can do about it.
Don´t cut ties with your brother and his family, probably they don´t want a very close relationship, but even a distant one is a relationship.
Hang on lose!
|Tue, 06-21-2011 - 10:43pm
I finally had a phone call from brother ( after me sending him messages and phone call to speak to him) and it seems that there are many little things that have disturbed them, too many to name. I also have a few of my own gripes about them and for the first time was able to share these gripes with my brother. SIL biggest issue is that I didnt ring to wish them congrats when I found out they were having baby no 2, but when I did phone to speak to her, my brother said she was busy and couldnt come to phone. ( and of course she couldnt phone back when she wasnt busy) . They seem to be focusing on all the things we DIDNT do, and not taking into consideration ALL the things we have done and offered to do, with every single offer from us being rejected - eg offer to babysit when they were both sick, paid for activities, them coming here for meals, and many more. THey have

Your SIL sounds very self-centered and narcasistic and jealous of anyone getting any attention but her! Boy, was your brother bamboozled!
And, gee, if we took offense at everything someone else did not do - we'd be pretty darn busy being pissed off all day long at EVERYONE!
Your brother clearly needs to decide if he's leaving his balls in your SIL's purse or if he's going to reclaim them. And, believe me, he'll only be able to play her game for so long before HE gets frustrated and there's a confrontation at home with his wife over her behavior and its impact on their lives.
I would do my very best to stay in touch with your brother and keep things cordial. Because your SIL is "keeping score" the best thing you can do is not try to meet her unreachable expectations and let her stew in her own juice. Some people never "get it" because they are so busy blaming others.
Good luck.

Even if you're certain you're in the right, call up sister in law and ask her what you did wrong?
|Thu, 06-23-2011 - 8:10pm
Brother phones again this week - at least there is some communication there and he is now aware of how I have felt about how they have shut us out of their lives and treated us with contempt..
THey have judged us on ridiculous things for too long, instead of accepting that we have been trying to help them and be there , they have constantly critcised the things that they felt we should be doing - and yet nothing has come from their side - no invitation to see first child, and no offer to meet them to catch up.. basically no effort to get together ever. So brother phones to tell me that he has missed me and he still loves me and that he needs to work with her for her to be able to move on and not focus on what we havent done ... eg not wishing them congrats when I found that they were expecting again ( but of course when I phone she wont answer the phone or speak to me - you cant win either way with them ) and when I said that we have a gift and we would like to see the baby, she is still too hormonal for us to come over.
Would anyone else tolerate this nonsense? Oh - and then brother said that I need to get to know her so I can take her shopping ! Thats what auntys are for ...
This is good forum for venting.

Jingoism Isn't Journalism: Why I Don't Trust Corporate Media on Iran
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
As a critic of media, in particular of cable/satellite "news," I'm troubled by American corporate-media, in particular CNN's near non-stop coverage of the turmoil in Iran. Not because the story isn't important. It's critically important and warrants the personal coverage it's getting from the Iranian people as they bypass corporate channels to tell their stories on facebook, youtube, flickr and twitter.
Thanks to Iran's tech-savvy society, old-time corporate media is now relegated to the position of new-media aggregator, whoring its visibility to co-opt the Iranian people's new-media messages to America and the world. Old-media, and specifically CNN, are learning the difficult lesson that with or without their vast resources and state of the art studios, the Iranians' stories will be told. And they'll be told to tens of millions more viewers than cable and satellite programs tend to reach.
Despite CNN's attempt to co-opt the scope of new-media in the Iranian social justice movement and present it as a novel approach, social networking venues have been used by activists around the world to broadcast and document grassroots activities that corporate-media either buried or refused to report. Youtube and flickr have long been used by grassroots organizations in the United States and elsewhere to document and corroborate socio-political actions such as marches and rallies which opposed the Iraq war, Bush administration policies and corporate greed, but weren't in corporate-media's interest to cover since they challenged their power elite: their corporate advertisers and their government cronies.
As a participatory journalist who's been present at a multitude of marches and rallies that were spurned by corporate-media, I've consistently used new-media to document corporate-media ignored or buried events. Witness in this article written in August '08 during the Democratic National Convention, the baton bashing of a woman anti-war activist in Denver by a Colorado law enforcement officer that was virtually ignored by corporate-media.
For the past several years the anti-war movement has photographed for flickr and video'd for youtube the number of attendees at its events to counter the reckless underreporting by corporate controlled print and TV news. As reported by Indymedia, the St. Paul police routinely beat and arrested progressive protesters during the 2008 Republican National Convention in Minnesota when they protested the improprieties of their government, yet these events got little corporate-media coverage and no visible anchor sympathy was shown for the beaten. Instead, Americans who have challenged the policies of the US government have been mocked and overlooked by their own country's media, while those in other nations who challenge the leadership of non US allies like Iran, Argentina and Bolivia get enthusiastic coverage. The hypocrisy is astounding.
Why is corporate-media so willing to provide wall-to-wall coverage of the people's movement in Iran and graphic images of the Iranian government's brutality, but unwilling to cover the progressive anti-war movement in America and the police brutality here? Jingoism isn't journalism! Again, I don't mean to diminish the momentousness of the socio-political happenings in Iran, nor the valor of the Iranian people as they face off against their tyrannical government.
I'm in awe of their patriotism and heroism and I want them to prevail. Still I question whether corporate-media's intense coverage and uncharacteristic emoting are in the best interests of the people of Iran. As the Iranian Revolutionary Guard's graphic violence against the people is continually televised, some in this country may soften to the idea of American intervention in Iran, as happened with Iraq after ongoing corporate-media/Bush administration/anti Iraq indoctrination. Absurd inflammatory statements have already been made by corporate-media representatives, notably by CNN, that can drive the case to support military action. Witness the video below of CNN anchor Don Lemon's wanton assertion of a correlation between Iran and Rwanda, suggesting that Iran may be the new Rwanda and the United States may suffer similar regret for non-action as it did for not interceding in the 1994 Rwandan genocide. Here's the video of Lemon making that ludicrous comparison, which he has made more than once:

St. Louis, MO (SportsNetwork.com) - Sam Bradford tossed three touchdown passes to lead the St. Louis Rams to a 34-20 victory over the winless Jacksonville Jaguars at Edward Jones Dome on Sunday.
Bradford completed 19-of-34 passes for 222 yards for St. Louis (2-3), which snapped a three-game losing skid thanks to a 10-day break following their 35-11 home loss to San Francisco.
"Seemed like a long 10 days, but it was a good win for us," said Rams coach Jeff Fisher. "Thirty-six rushes and 34 pass attempts, balance suggests that you're keeping the ball and creating third down situations that are convertible. Still got a long way to go."
Austin Pettis hauled in four passes for 49 yards and a pair of scores, while rookie Zac Stacy, making his first NFL start, rushed for 78 yards on 14 carries.
"I was able to make a couple of plays and get us the W," said Pettis.
Blaine Gabbert and Chad Henne each threw a touchdown pass for Jacksonville (0-5), which has dropped 10 in a row since beating Tennessee in Week 12 last season.
Gabbert started and went 9-for-19 for 181 yards and two interceptions, but left the game with a left hamstring injury early in the third quarter. Henne finished up 7-of-13 for 89 yards.
"The tale of this game was the turnovers," said Jaguars coach Gus Bradley. "So many times this game comes back to ball security and making good decisions with the ball. We'll continue to emphasize that."
Justin Blackmon, who returned from a four-game suspension for violating the league's substance abuse policy, had five receptions for a game-best 136 yards and a touchdown. Maurice Jones-Drew gained 70 yards on the ground.
Early in the first quarter, Ace Sanders fielded a punt back at the Jacksonville 12 and dodged a number of defenders before sprinting down the left sideline for what appeared to be his first NFL touchdown. An illegal block nullified the score and left the Jaguars with poor field position.
Jacksonville started the series pinned down at its own 7, but after a 21-yard completion to Cecil Shorts on third down, Gabbert found Blackmon with plenty of real estate in front of him. The second-year receiver outran the defense for a 67-yard touchdown.
Matt Giordano provided a boost to the Rams later in the first when he picked off Gabbert, who sailed a throw intended for Blackmon, and ran it back 82 yards untouched for his second career interception returned for touchdown.
Josh Scobee and Greg Zuerlein traded field goals for a 10-10 score early in the second.
The Jags took over after Zuerlein's 32-yarder, but lost possession when Clay Harbor was stripped by Alec Ogletree. Darian Stewart recovered the fumble, setting up Bradford's short touchdown pass to Lance Kendricks on the very next play.
The Rams tallied again just before halftime when Bradford drove them 90 yards in 12 plays, resulting in Pettis' 4-yard touchdown grab.
Jacksonville caught a break early in the second half when Chris Prosinski partially blocked a punt, setting up Gabbert and the Jags offense in Rams' territory, but they ultimately came up empty. Gabbert hit Harbor for a 21-yard gain down to the St. Louis 4, but a failed scramble and two incompletions led to a Scobee field goal attempt.
The Rams jumped offside prior to the snap and Bradley decided to roll the dice and go for it on 4th-and-goal from the 2. Offsetting penalties on Gabbert's fourth down incompletion gave him another shot, but he threw into triple coverage and was picked off by James Laurinaitis.
Trailing 27-13 early in the fourth after the teams swapped field goals, the Jaguars attempted a comeback with Henne under center. Jones-Drew carried four times for 35 yards on the 12-play series, which Henne capped with a 4-yard touchdown strike to Shorts in the back of the end zone.
But the Rams had no intentions of slowing down. After converting a pair of third downs to extend the drive, Bradford found Pettis streaking down the right sideline for a 31-yard score.
