Michael Hutchence's only child Tiger Lily will reportedly be receiving almost nothing from him. The late INXS lead vocalist was allegedly estimated to be worth $30 million when he passed away in 1997, but his daughter would see just an insignificant portion of it.
Tiger Lily, who has been raised by her mother Paula Yates' ex-husband Bob Geldof in the UK, has turned 18 on July 22. She is due to inherit millions from her father, but apparently, that's not going to happen.
According to New Idea magazine, the executor of Michael's estate advised his family that there was no money left for those due to inherit.
Michael's estate was settled in 2005, five years after Paula died from heroin overdose.
The singer appeared to be "technically bankrupt," a situation that he failed to see when he revised his will a year before his death. The executor's report showed that he only had $506 in cash and $572 in a shared bank account when he died.
He left the first $500,000 of his wealth to Greenpeace and Amnesty International charities, while the rest would be divided 50/50 between his family and Tiger Lily.
His younger brother Rhett expressed his outrage over the new development, saying that the tragic star "would have hated this outcome to his will."
"The will was black and white" he told the magazine. "He wanted his family to have his hard-earned wealth, and that's where it goes."
Rhett continued, "Michael thought he had control of his assets, but in the end, it only worked with Michael still alive. On his death he owned little or nothing."
Michael hanged himself in his hotel room in Sydney in 1997 at age 37. His daughter, whose full name is Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily Hutchence Geldof, has been adopted by Bob after Paula's death.
Michael's half-sister has recently urged Tiger Lily to come to Australia to reconnect with the Hutchences.

A friend of mine want's to start making games, and I've been keeping an eye out for anything he might be able to use to make a flash game. So far all the stuff I've seen has been either incredibly hard and complicated, or ridiculously condescending and template-based. Does anyone one know of a happy middle ground? If there's a happy middle ground? I know there isn't much for mac out there but surely someone must of made something...

Well can my life get worse? Of course it can my ex didn't just do drugs, and drink he also cheated on me. Yep cheated on me the guy I was faithful to for almost 6 years! Got a call from him today after my daughter talked to him he wanted to tell me my daughter is going to have a half sibling. Yet the thing is the new gf is further then 8 weeks and that's how long we have been split. I am so livid. I know I need to move on but it upset me still. You know what I mean. To add to it he wants to see our daughter but listen to this he hasn't contacted her or tried before so why do I think he'll see her and be a daddy 100% I am sure he won't. I don't know how to feel about it all. The last few weeks have been tough with a sick kid, friend issues, and now this. Got to let it gO.
I don't know why he did it? I thought he loved me and our daughter but I was wrong. I am focusing on her and only her.
Quoting michiganmom5150:
Even though it's over, still hurts. This happened to me with my first ex. No babies, but his cheating was confirmed and it stung. Focus on your daughter and remember he'll eventually get his...hugs!
I know and I am telling myself that's a good reason I left him in the first place. Still hurts but it happened I have to move on with my daughter.
Quoting Robsessed98:
Just add that to the list of reasons you need to move on. I know it hurts to be cheated on, but you cant let it get you down. Its not your fault he did it, its all on him. If she get him by cheating, shell probably lose him for the same reason.


text: Really? You think there is no difference in those things? Um, excuse me, but moaning about wrestling is on a par with cutting for Bieber. It's immature, it has no basis in any sane reality I know and it makes absolutely NO difference to the outcome of things. You want to use cinema as an example - good. I got you there too. Cinema doesn't owe you anything. Paying to see a movie is a gamble - buyer beware. Where do people get this idiotic notion that people like promoters and filmmakers are here to serve us? Like we're automatically entitled to stuff for I don't know what reason. Nobody owes us anything. Not movies, not music and not wrestling. Take it or leave it but don't try to pretend that complaining makes you anything else besides a B-I-T-C-H.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Virginia State Police say homicide and other violent crimes in the state are declining. But drug offenses are increasing.
The annual Crime in Virginia report released Monday says the homicide rate fell from 4.61 per 100,000 population in 2010 to 3.77 in 2011.
According to the report, 28 percent of homicide victims in 2011 were 20 to 29 years old. Males accounted for 79 percent of the victims in this age group. Robberies fell 4 percent.
Ninety-four percent of the offenders were male and 69 percent of the victims were male. Burglary, motor vehicle theft and other property crimes declined 2.2 percent.

Continues the story of Frank Cowperwood begun in the Financier. Cowperwood leaves Philadelphia, remarries, and begins life in Chicago. He has personal ande financial ups and downs and builds a home in New York. The book is not quite as good as The Financier, but it is still exciting reading.

Kirkland & Ellis is paying top dollar for some lateral hires as it beefs up it commercial real estate practice.
The law firm has hired 10 lawyers to the practice since March, the Chicago Tribune reports. Unnamed sources told the newspaper that at least two of the new hires are earning salaries of $4 million to $5 million a year.
Law firm chairman Jaffrey Hammes did not confirm the salaries when interviewed by the Tribune, but he did acknowledge the new hires "didn't come over for less money."
Hammes went on his hiring spree after losing three real estate partners in March to Latham & Watkins, the story says. The latest lawyers to come on board are Andrew Small and Rachel Brown of Katten Muchin Rosenman.

Myself and my wife ate here twice on our visit from November 26th to Dec 12th.
The first time just as a walk in and the second time to see if the service and food was a fluke.
They weren't. Decor is elegant and subdued, giving the feel of a very classy place, waiters..too numerous to mention, one for our drinks (who kept popping back to see if we were ok) one for bread, which isn't a single roll..its a huge bread basket which if you want could replace any possibility of eating even two courses so large was it and the selection of breads in it.
Steaks..i had a 24oz porterhouse and a 20 oz bone in ribe eye on the two occasions we went..both excellent.
I have eaten at Smith and wollenskys, and The Range..both were pipped out by Bally's steakhouse.
BTW..Don't have a desert. my wife didn't have a stater the second visit and she couldnt finish my desert it was soo big.

The meeting will start at 1 p.m. (CT) in the Third Floor Conference Room of the NRC Region III Office, 801 Warrenville Road, Lisle, Illinois. It is open to public observation. NRC officials will be available at the conclusion to answer questions from the news media and other interested observers.
The discussion will focus on the Corporation's failure to control components with uranium deposits, inadequate maintenance, testing and operation of safety valves on equipment, and exceeding the possession limit for uranium enriched greater than 20 percent.
U.S. Enrichment Corporation operates the Portsmouth plant under a lease from the Department of Energy, the owner and previous operator. Effective March of last year, regulatory authority over plant operations was transferred from the Department of Energy to the NRC. The facility uses a gaseous diffusion process to enrich uranium hexafluoride in the uranium-235 isotope, so that the material can be used as nuclear fuel in commercial nuclear power plants.
The decision to hold an enforcement conference does not mean the NRC has determined that a violation has occurred or that enforcement action will be taken. Rather, the purpose is to discuss apparent violations, their causes and safety significance; to provide the licensee an opportunity to point out any errors that may have been made in the NRC inspection report; and to enable the company to outline its proposed corrective actions.
No decision on the apparent violations or any contemplated enforcement action, such as a fine, will be made at this conference. Those decisions will be made by senior NRC officials at a later date.

Productivity and age of the Antarctic scallop (Adamussium colbecki) in the Ross Sea
Heilmayer, O., Brey, T., Chiantore, M., Cattaneo-Vietti, R. and Arntz, W.E. (2003) Productivity and age of the Antarctic scallop (Adamussium colbecki) in the Ross Sea. Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 288, (2), 239-256. (doi:10.1016/S0022-0981(03)00020-0).
Full text not available from this repository.
Body size, geographical distribution, and biomass make Adamussium colbecki (Smith, 1902) one of the most conspicuous bivalve species in the Antarctic. Based on samples collected in austral summer 1999/2000 in Terra Nova Bay, the annual formation of shell growth bands visible on X-ray photographs was verified by stable isotope analysis. A general von Bertalanffy growth function was fitted to size-at-age data of 25 individuals (H∞=108.86 mm, K=0.114 year−1, t0=−0.367, D=1.284). Somatic production calculated from mass-specific growth rates was 234.6 kJ m−2 year−1. Gonadal productivity amounted to 70.92 kJ m−2 year−1. Annual somatic and gonad production-to-biomass ratios (P/B) were 0.199 and 0.052, respectively. According to its consumption and production, A. colbecki is likely to play a significant role in the trophic web of Terra Nova Bay.

Abstract | The analysis of fMRI data is challenging because they consist generally of a relatively modest signal contained in a high-dimensional space: a single scan can contain millions of voxel recordings over space and time. We present a method for classification and discrimination among fMRI that is based on modeling the scans as distance matrices, where each matrix measures the divergence of spatial network signals that fluctuate over time. We used single-subject independent components analysis (ICA), decomposing an fMRI scan into a set of statistically independent spatial networks, to extract spatial networks and time courses from each subject that have unique relationship with the other components within that subject. Mathematical properties of these relationships reveal information about the infrastructure of the brain by measuring the interaction between and strength of the components. Our technique is unique, in that it does not require spatial alignment of the scans across subjects. Instead, the classifications are made solely on the temporal activity taken by the subject's unique ICs. Multiple scans are not required and multivariate classification is implementable, and the algorithm is effectively blind to the subject-uniform underlying task paradigm. Classification accuracy of up to 90% was realized on a resting-scanned schizophrenia/normal dataset and a tasked multivariate Alzheimer's/old/young dataset. We propose that the ICs represent a plausible set of imaging basis functions consistent with network-driven theories of neural activity in which the observed signal is an aggregate of independent spatial networks having possibly dependent temporal activity. |

Excellent. The driver was a very nice young man who was full of very useful information. It was a pleasure to be greeted by such a smart, chatty and informative person. He was on time and greeted us with a smile and a cheery welcome.
This tour was amazing!
Perfect and totally worth it. Why go outside and look for taxi. Precook and then you have nothing to worry about.
The driver was in the arrivals hall to pick us up, very easy to spot as he held a sign with our name on it. On the drive to the hotel he pointed out various sights and gave us some tips on places to eat. He was very helpful with all the luggage. Would recommend without hesitation.
It was great to have someone waiting for us after a long international flight! Really great to not have to drop a million other people off first! Professional driver, clean vehicle. Terrific service. Would definitely use Viator again!
There when we arrived...couldn't have asked for more! Will definitely use Viator again in the future!
great driver wish I had more time to hire him to give us some of the non tourist look at Salzburg Had a great personality
Excellent service

Favourites Hyderabad Hotshots moved into the semifinal despite a shock 2-3 defeat at the hands of bottom-placed Banga Beats in the last league match of the Indian Badminton League here on Tuesday night.
In the first singles, Tanongsak Saemsomboonsuk of Hotshots quelled the challenge from the 'local favourite' P. Kashyap of Banga Beats to give a winning start.
In front of a capacity crowd the 23-year-old Tanongsak's ability to score big points under pressure was clearly the decisive factor.
The normally flamboyant Kashyap, known for his big smashes, was often stunned by the opponent's ease in essaying those delectable returns from both flanks.
What clearly proved crucial was the big lead Tanongsak grabbed early in both games. Though Kashyap picked up some points to reduce the gap in both the games, he ran into Tanongsak's stunning mix of big smashes and brilliant net-play. Even a service fault at 18-15 did not rattle the remarkably cool Tanongsak, who eventually clinched the battle with a splendid smash — a shot, which he later said, he would love to remember for a long, long time.
There was a deafening roar when Saina Nehwal entered the arena for the women's singles match against the World No. 8 Ying Tai Tzu.
The Chinese Taipei girl came up with a terrific display — especially in the second game — when she outsmarted Saina with a series of impressive rallies, often pinning her to the baseline and then playing some delectable drops to take extend the issue to the decider.
The 19-year-old Ying was in no mood to give up. But, she failed to read the deep cross return from Saina at 8-9, and that saw a major shift in momentum. Not surprisingly, Saina did not waste much time forcing Ying to play a net drop and the latter placed it out to surrender the match. Despite the two early losses, Banga Beats came back strongly to level the scores 2-2, with the men's doubles pair of Carsten Mogensen and Akshay Dewalker scoring a 15-21, 21-15, 11-1 win over Goh V Shem and Lim Khim Wah. Then, World No. 9 Jan O. Jorgensen outplayed Ajay Jayaram 21-11, 21-8.
The results: Banga Beats bt Hyderabad Hotshots 3-2 (P. Kashyap lost to Tanongsak Saemsomboonsuk 20-21, 18-21; Ying Tai Tzu lost to Saina Nehwal 17-21, 21-14, 8-11; Carsten Mogensen & Akshay Dewalkar bt Goh V Shem & Wah Lim Khim 15-21, 21-15, 11-1; Jan O Jorgensen bt Ajay Jayaram 21-11, 21-8; Carsten Mogensen & Aparna Balan bt Tarun Kona & Pradnya Gadre 18-21, 21-16, 11-9).

The first two rounds of the WGC Accenture Match Play has brought about a number of shocks with a host of top seeds falling like flies. Reigning champion Luke Donald's first round exit to the No.64 seed Ernie Els, was perhaps one of the standout results of the first two days; however we have also seen Korean Sang-Moon Bae dismiss past champion Ian Poulter and Masters champion Charl Schwartzel en-route to this stage (Sang-Moon Bae 25/1 to win) and the oldest man in the field Miguel Angel-Jimenez beat countryman Sergio Garcia and last year's USPA champion, Keegan Bradley (Miguel Angel-Jimenez 28/1 to win).

The Ben Hogan bracket is one which has produced the fewest surprises in relation to the rest of the draw. The four players remaining make up the top six seeds in this quarter and also consist of two of last year's semi-finalists, showing exactly how strong this side of the tournament is.
Martin Kaymer v Matt Kuchar
Former world No.1, Martin Kaymer, will take his 9-4 Match Play record up against Matt Kuchar and his impressive 8-2 record in this event (Martin Kaymer 8/11 to beat Matt Kuchar). Kaymer has not trailed after any of his 34 holes so far this week, but then again Kuchar can boast to have the same record, so something has to give when these two meet on Friday. Kuchar was a losing semi-finalist last year, whilst Kaymer went one better and reached the final, before losing to Luke Donald. He will be intent on going even better this year and winning the whole tournament.
Steve Stricker v Hunter Mahan
This all-American affair between two almost certain Ryder Cup players is set to be another close tussle in a repeat of their 2008 second round match where Stricker prevailed after 20 holes. Hunter Mahan has arguably played the more impressive golf of the two so far this week, firing seven birdies in 15 holes to dispatch Y.E Yang on Thursday 5&3 (Hunter Mahan 10/11 to beat Steve Stricker). However, Steve Stricker is one of the most consistent players on tour and if Mahan has an off day you can count on the experienced Stricker to capitalise.

This paper reviews the production trials of rice-cum-fish culture. Rice and various fish species using rotation and concurrent methods of cultivation are used. The farming system is mostly practiced and researched in to in Southeast Asian countries. It addresses the problems of high external inputs, sustainable aquaculture, poverty and nutrition in the rural population, insect pests, use of insecticides, weeds control and under-utilization of agricultural lands. The production trials yields are summarized and a summary of annual income per hectare from rice and fish have been given. The yield however depends to a large extent on the species stocked, culture period, fertility of the soil and water, degree of supplemental feeding and culturing methods. The production results are discussed. Niger state is blessed with abundant wetlands/rice fields suitable for the practice. However, ecological differences from country to country and region to region, research and development trials are necessary to ensure a successful adoption of the technology to farmers in the State

The effect of a reduced energy diet and meal patterns on smoking and coffee drinking in women. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 9062837 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
OBJECTIVE: We examined the effect of three feeding conditions on cigarette smoking and coffee drinking in four healthy women. We hypothesized that food deprivation and changes in meal patterns would increase rates of smoking and coffee drinking based on extensive animal literature documenting this effect. METHOD: The conditions were: normal three meals per day containing usual energy intake, one meal per day (dinner time) containing 50% of usual energy intake, and three meals per day containing 50% of usual energy intake. Each condition lasted 3 days. RESULTS: Neither reduction of energy intake nor alteration in the pattern of meals had any observable effect on number of cigarettes smoked, number of cups of coffee consumed, expired air carbon monoxide levels, or urges to smoke or drink coffee. DISCUSSION: This study adds to the growing body of literature suggesting that the food deprivation effect observed in animals does not apply readily to humans. Reasons for the absence of this effect are discussed. |

I have a need to throttle the bandwidth usage, similar to how some ISPs do it, so that after a couple of seconds, it throttles down the speed.
What you're looking for is called Traffic Shaping. The best source of information for it (that I know of) is Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control. It's a little bit dated, but still has a ton of good information. If you google for The specific commands you will use, unless you find a tool or script to do the work for you, are tc and/or tcng. I also want to warn you that traffic shaping can get very complicated if you haven't done it before, particularly if you're trying to do it by hand. Additionally, also remember that you can only reliably control the speed of data that you are sending out. You might also want to check out these similar serverfault questions: |
We use tc.bash (link) for traffic control, in combination with IPTables. Its done the trick for everything we've needed it for so far. (Tested on CentOS 4 and 5, and should work with any flavor of linux with tc and iptables.) |

WALTHAM, Mass. — Jared Sullinger drew raves from his
Celtics teammates following the team's return from Milan, with Rajon Rondo praising the young power forward for his intelligence.
"He's probably the smartest rookie we've had since I've
been here," Rondo said. "He's very intelligent with his basketball
IQ. He's very unselfish. He doesn't get a play called for him, he's done very
well getting his points just off doing the dirty work."
But while Rondo placed Sullinger ahead of the likes of Glen
Davis, Semih Erden and Avery Bradley in the basketball IQ department, there was
one Celtics rookie Rondo insisted was smarter than Sullinger.

Control Windows Messenger with Group Policy Objects
Administrators can set certain controls to stop Windows Messenger from ever starting -- or only on startup.
Instant messaging has become the popular way to communicate. Whether on a network, over the Internet, through Web-enabled TVs, pages, or mobile phones everyone seems to be diving head first into the asynchronous chat rage.

You also agree that your personal information may be transferred and processed in the United States, and that you have read and agree to the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy.
Well, that is everyone but me. I can't stand these instant-messaging systems. The first activity I perform when installing a new OS or obtaining a new online or phone service is disable the ability to send or receive instant messages. There I've said it.
Or you may like such systems yourself, but your company doesn't want them to run on employees' computers because they take up too much bandwidth, or employee time, or both.
No matter what your opinion on this issue happens to be, fear not. Windows 2000, XP, and .NET offer a means through Active Directory GPOs that you can manage the Windows Messenger tool. Windows Messenger is an offshoot of both Internet Explorer and Outlook Express. It has become another native Windows tool that will probably be around for several generations of Windows versions.
AD GPOs can be used to manage this tool in your environment. By default it is installed on all new Windows 2000, XP, and .NET systems. By default it is launched each time a user logs in and accesses their desktop on one of these OS versions.
The controls used to manage Windows Messenger appear in the Administrative Tools, Windows Components, Windows Messenger folder of both the User Configuration and Computer Configuration sections of a GPO. There are only two controls. Both controls can be found in either configuration section of a GPO.
Note: If the same setting is configured in both the Computer Configuration and the User Configuration section, the settings in the Computer Configuration section take precedence.
The Do not allow Windows Messenger to run control disables the Windows Messenger tool. When this control is enabled, no user will be able to launch this messaging client by any means.
The Do not automatically start Windows Messenger initially control prevents Windows Messenger from launching when a user logs on. This control does not prevent the messaging client from being launched manually.
If your organization wants to prevent the use of Windows Messenger, enable the first control. If you just want to prevent it from consuming system resources until someone actually wants to use it, enable the second.

Accusing the Centre of "hoodwinking" the country by delaying the passage of a strong Lokpal Bill, Team Anna on Sunday said it would be a "great betrayal" if the law was not cleared in the ongoing budget session of Parliament and threatened to launch a nation-wide protest
Team Anna member Arvind Kejriwal said the government was "purposely" delaying the passage. "If the Bill is passed, they know their officials will be in trouble ... If the Bill is not passed during the ongoing session, it would be the greatest betrayal on Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's part." He said they would be forced to launch a nationwide protest again if the Bill was not passed in this session.
There is uncertainty over when the amended Bill will be brought before the Rajya Sabha, though informed sources had earlier indicated that this might be done by Tuesday, the last day of the session.
Another Team Anna member Shanti Bhushan said the government was afraid of passing the Bill. "They know that they can win elections. But they also know that if this Bill is passed, many of them in power will be in jail. So they won't allow its passage," he alleged.

Austria Metals Report Q4 2012
- Language: English
- Published: October 2012
- Region: Austria
Business Monitor International's Austria Metals Report provides industry professionals and strategists, corporate analysts, metals associations, government departments and regulatory bodies with independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on Austria's metals industry.
The Austrian steel industry's exposure to the automotive industry make it highly vulnerable to the downturn in the car market in H210, leading to a drastic slowdown in steel production growth, according to BMI's latest Austria Metals Report.
In the first seven months of 2010, Austrian crude steel output was up 39.9% year-on-year (y-o-y) to 4.13mn tonnes, although in common with other EU states output declined after May. The Austrian steel industry is at the mercy of the volatile European markets, despite the expected upturn of production and exports. Compared to pre-recession activity, domestic demand remains weak and fiscal consolidation in 2011 will further weigh on domestic demand recovery. Austria's leading steelmaker Voestalpine warned that the strong performance it reported in the first few months of 2010 would be short-lived in the event of unsustainable Chinese production

There are obvious reasons why one would dedicate his/her life to music. And for me, the reasons are no different. Soothing the soul, taking you to your own world and making you feel light that's what music does to many around me. But for me individually music is my companion that never leaves me alone. It makes me feel complete and signals to me that there is nothing else I could ever rely on. How quickly music changes your mood, nothing else can. What brought me to put my love for music in words is the upcoming music video that I'm currently working on. The fusion of music the track has is one that a lot of you would love.
I, like most other women in music, is influenced to work on soft music and my music video is just an example of the same. The dedication and efforts my team is putting into it, makes me more excited to see what your feedback towards your video is going to be. For all music lovers, I would advise to stay tuned for more music updates from me.
Writing about music gives me the opportunity to enable my readers to read about music and learn more. Women and music in particular have a lot in common. The emotions music can bring out in a woman are enormous, just as it would do to me being one of the women in music. For all my life when I have contributed my part to the music, it makes me realize that dedicating my life to music is an excellent way to exhibit how much I love being able to do my bit for music and the musical world! For those whose life I'm touching for the first time through this piece of writing, my music video will be an efficient way to help them know more about me.
Come to mcdayjob.com more often and I can promise you will not be bored with the type of music I provide. Your taste buds for music will be served at their best. My music video is the next thing you would know so happy waiting!
Music is my life!

Ratan Tata: From fighting fiefdoms to a global giant
Credited with creating India's top most brand, Ratan Tata -- search for whose successor is on now -- had to fight hard in the 1980s to create a brand for Tatas and keep the companies from being run as 'fiefdoms'.
"We did not have a brand... We identified our brand in 15 or 20 different ways, each company doing its own thing," Tata Group Chairman Ratan Tata was quoted in a book, Tata: The Evolution of Corporate Brand.
Tata, who has led the group to global heights, had to fight a hard battle from the times when he was waiting in the wings to take charge of the conglomerate.
After he took the reins of the group in 1991 amid stiff resistance from within, his task was to stop the breaking down of systems established by his predecessor J R D Tata.

Ratan Tata: From fighting fiefdoms to a global giant
The book, authored by Morgen Witzel, said that when in 1981 Ratan Tata proposed the establishment of a strategic planning forum to harmonise the group's strategy, he was opposed by his colleagues.
Some felt he was trying to rein them in and limit their autonomy; others were simply opposed to sharing information with other Tata companies that they regarded as rivals. To outsiders, at least, it looked as if the glue that held Tata together was starting to dissolve, the book said.
"We had fiefdoms that were going in different directions. . . We had companies in the same business competing with one another. We had uncontrolled entry into new businesses," Ratan Tata said in the book that reminisces about the group in the late 1980s.

Ratan Tata: From fighting fiefdoms to a global giant
According to the book, as the then chief J R D Tata's power started to decline during the late 1980s, the group of managers promoted by him in the 1950s and 1960s began to "run their companies autonomously.
"So, we had companies that were doing suboptimal business, that did not have scale or critical mass," Ratan Tata has said in the book.
Today, Tata group is the wealthiest conglomerate in the country in terms of market capitalisation of listed entities at Rs 3.7 lakh crore (Rs 3.7 trillion).
In 2008, the Tata group was valued at $11.4 billion, and ranked 57th among top 100 brands by Brand Finance, an independent company focused on the management and valuation of brands -- a success for which Tata has been credited.

The group earlier this month set up a panel to search for the successor of Ratan Tata.
Speculations are rife that Ratan Tata's half brother Noel Tata, who is increasingly being given more responsibilities in the group, would be the next man in charge.
As per the book, in the early 1990s, the efforts by holding company Tata Sons to make the various companies work together as a meaningful and recognisable group were resisted with great vigour and some executives like Tata Steel's then chief Russi Mody solved the problem by stepping down.
Recalling the early days of Ratan Tata at the helm of affairs, the book said that he had assigned himself the target of consolidating the group.
As a first step for which Tata Sons slowly started hiking its share in each group firms to 26 per cent as it had fallen over the past decades.
"We set ourselves the task of seeing how we could put ourselves together as a more meaningful and recognisable group of companies with more central control," Ratan Tata has said.

This term refers to the cock and balls which dangle between a males legs. Although not very common it is possible for a female to have dangly bits. This happens after being violently fucked to many times and parts of the vagina become torn loose and dangle freely between her legs.

Blacker's upcoming release, In Waves, is out May 19.
An exclusive acoustic performance from LA-based indie rock band, Mercies.
Non-standard tunings open up a whole new realm of possibilities!
Noel Gallagher is back with his second solo album, Chasing Yesterday, and, for good or for bad, it's mostly typical Noel Gallagher. Trust me, it's definitely a good thing.
Kiss brought their 40th Anniversary Tour to the First Niagara Pavilion in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania, Sunday, August 24 — and were greeted by a packed house. They played what amounted to a greatest-hits set that included "Deuce," "Love Gun," "God of Thunder" and more. They also sprinkled in a good portion of non-makeup-era Kiss with "Hide Your Heart" and "Lick It Up."
Chris Kringel pieced together 21 separate lessons into one book that will help define your playing style as a bassist. The book starts off with simple right-hand plucking concepts and ends with complex two-handed tapping techniques.
Highlights included an arena-sized version of "Stranger in This Town" and a thundering "Seven Years Gone," featuring exciting fretwork from both Sambora and Orianthi. While Ori gave Richie most of spotlight, she wasn't shy when it was her turn to solo. Her incredible technique and more trebly, biting tone lit a fire under the frontman's ass, who clearly enjoyed being challenged.
It's no insult to the band to say that Kiss have always been about window dressing. That's why Paul Stanley's new autobiography, Face The Music: A Life Exposed, comes as such a surprise. After years of carefully maintaining his Starchild superhero identity, Stanley lets down his guard and unleashes a torrent of pent-up feelings that erupt and flow over 400 pages like molten lava.
Charlie "Bird" Parker is another "shredder" from the past worth investigating. Parker flamed out way too soon in 1955, but his shadow still looms large on the contemporary jazz landscape. Jazz writer Stanley Crouch spent the last 20 years researching this amazing figure, and captures him in all of his high-flying glory in Kansas City Lightning: The Rise and Times of Charlie Parker.
