House GOP question changes in flood insurance bill
WASHINGTON (AP) — The effort to delay huge increases in insurance premiums for homeowners in flood-prone areas faces a skeptical House chairman who is largely standing behind the changes Congress oversaw in the nation's flood insurance program less than two years ago.
Rep. Jeb Hensarling, the Texas Republican who chairs the House Financial Services Committee, wants "free-market alternatives" to the government-run program, says his spokesman, David Popp.
Hensarling and other top House Republicans aren't inclined to back away from changes meant to deal with a program that is $24 billion in the red after bailing out at-risk homeowners whose flood insurance has been subsidized by taxpayers and other policyholders for decades.
Increasing tensions over the issue is a 67-32 bipartisan vote Thursday in the Senate to delay some, but not all, of the changes approved in 2012.
"These drastic increases will act as a de facto eviction notice for homeowners who have lived in their homes and played by the rules their entire lives," said Sen. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., who supported holding off the rate increases. "That's going to drive down property values as the housing market is struggling to recover."
In many cases the changes in the flood insurance program produced unexpected, sky-high insurance rates that are unaffordable for many homeowners in flood-prone areas whose insurance has historically been subsidized by the government and other policyholders.
The Senate bill would put off for up to four years huge premium increases that are supposed to phase in next year and beyond under new and updated government flood maps. It also would allow homeowners to pass below-cost policies on to people who buy their homes. People who have recently bought homes and face sharp, immediate jumps in their premiums would see those increases rolled back.
The overhaul passed in 2012 — it too was on a bipartisan vote — was supposed to increase premiums on subsidized policies, but the beleaguered Federal Emergency Management Agency has struggled to implement it. FEMA has failed to complete a study of ways to make flood insurance more affordable and has come under assault for new flood maps that have decreed some never-flooded communities at risk.
The Senate action cheered people who live in homes or own property in coastal communities and towns in flood plains.
"Most of our homeowners require flood insurance as a condition of their mortgage," said Jonathan Gaska, district manager for the community board that represents the Rockaway peninsula and Broad Channel, areas of New York battered by Superstorm Sandy. "And we were afraid that this would just become a ghost town — that people would just give up their homes because they can't afford it."
Gaska said that the 2012 law has already had a chilling effect on home sales throughout the Rockaways, which is mostly populated by blue-collar workers like police officers and firefighters.
In Seaside Park, N.J., Chuck Appleby opted to raise his bayside home by 12 feet, in part because of the threat of exponential increases in flood insurance.

Arizona Diamondbacks
D-backs acquire LHP Matt Reynolds from Colorado
The Arizona Diamondbacks swung a deal Tuesday, acquiring left-handed reliever Matt Reynolds from the Colorado Rockies in exchange for third baseman Ryan Wheeler.
The 28-year-old Reynolds pitched in 71 games for the Rockies in 2012, posting a 3-1 record and 4.40 ERA in 57.1 innings. He struck out 51 and walked 17. Reynolds has appeared in 144 games over the last two years, the third-most in baseball among lefties.
"We are excited to add a versatile and experienced left-handed reliever to the bullpen," Diamondbacks general manager Kevin Towers said in a statement. "He's very familiar with our division and has been a workhorse for the last couple seasons, so we expect he can continue to do that for us."
Wheeler, 24, broke into the big leagues in 2012, appearing in 50 games for the Diamondbacks, hitting .239 with one home run and driving in 10 runs. Wheeler excelled at Triple-A Reno before his call-up, hitting .351 with 15 homers and 90 RBI.

More Classic Albums Getting Live Treatment
NEW YORK – Play it again, Sam. The whole album, please – and in order.
An unmistakable trend in concert-going is the growing number of acts performing their classic albums in full. Part marketing gimmick, part an act of nostalgia, the performances are above all celebrations of the album as an art form. The album is being feted just as – thanks to iPods and MP3s – its demise is being portended.
At July's Pitchfork Festival in Chicago, Public Enemy performed its 1988 hip-hop classic It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back, Sebadoh played its 1993 lo-fi indie favorite Bubble and Scrape, and Mission of Burma played its 1982 full-length Vs.
Earlier this year at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival in California, Roger Waters played the Pink Floyd classic Dark Side of the Moon as his second set.
All of these concerts follow other album performances by Jay-Z, Lucinda Williams, Sonic Youth, Wilco, Slint, Iron Maiden and GZA over the last two years.
The trend is even visible in movie theaters. Currently playing in select theaters is Julian Schnabel's concert film of Lou Reed performing his 1973 album, Berlin. Mr. Reed also did a tour of Berlin last year.
Though Mr. Reed did the shows on his own, it was Barry Hogan who first suggested the idea to him. Mr. Hogan is a London-based concert promoter for All Tomorrow's Parties, a festival whose "Don't Look Back" series has been the trendsetter in gettingbands to play their classic albums.
In its inaugural year in 2006, albums were performed by the Stooges (Funhouse), Gang of Four (Entertainment!), Belle & Sebastian (If You're Feeling Sinister), Cat Power (The Covers Record) and Dinosaur Jr. (You're Living All Over Me).
"When you first mention it to artists, a lot of them, their initial reaction is, 'What's wrong with our new stuff?'" Mr. Hogan said.
But they've been quicker to come around to the idea, he said. At the ATP festival Aug. 19-21 in the Catskills in upstate New York, Built to Spill, the Meat Puppets, Tortoise and Thurston Moore will all perform albums in full.
Wanting to expand her set lists was a major factor in Lucinda Williams' decision to perform five of her albums – 2003′s World Without Tears, 2001′s Essence, 1998′s Car Wheels on a Gravel Road, 1990′s Sweet Old World and 1988′s self-titled disc – in New York and Los Angeles last fall.
"I have such a huge catalog now, that I don't get to play a lot of the songs," the singer-songwriter said. "And I miss a lot of them. We only have so much room in the set. I loved the idea because it kind of satisfied my need to get all those songs out again."

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. OriginScourge's origin is unknown, he is aided by a man known only as Domino (formerly an agent of the Conspiracy), who provides him with information on his targets. With every successful assassination, Scourge exclaims "Justice is served". Scourge has recounted several false pasts for himself that usually involve him being a costumed criminal's relative.CreationScourge was created by Mark Gruenwald as a means to clean out some of the underused supervillains floating around the Marvel Universe. He first appeared in Iron Man #196, written by Denny O'Neill.Major Story ArcsThe Year of the ScourgeScourge began his killing spree by murdering criminal mercenary gunman the Enforcer while disguised as a homeless woman. The Scourge next targeted the hypnotic Miracle Man, but found himself aboard a bus with not only his target but the Thing as well. The Miracle Man's plan to free the Rhino (who was being transported by Guardsmen in another vehicle) was interrupted by the Thing, but while the Thing and the Rhino fought, Scourge slew the Miracle Man. When the Fantastic Four defeated the Psycho Man's emotion-manipulating Hate Monger construct after he caused mass chaos in Manhattan, Scourge hiding in a nearby alleyway shot the artificial being, causing it to lose its form. While still in New York, Scourge murdered video game-inspired villain Megatak and later killed the would-be super-hero Phone Ranger during a chaotic battle between various heroes and the Lethal Legion.Scourge first encountered Captain America during an unsuccessful attempt on hospitalized super-criminal Constrictor. Posing as a nurse, Scourge failed due to Captain America's intervention, but managed to escape. He traveled to Los Angeles, where he failed to kill Kraven the Hunter when he couldn't get close enough to the villain to avoid hurting Tigra, whom Kraven was battling. Shortly thereafter, Scourge murdered Keegan, the super-criminal Melter's assistant. Disguised as Keegan, Scourge shot the Melter before destroying the criminal's melting device.Soon after, Scourge joined the Grapplers wrestling team, posing as a woman called Golddigger. When the opportunity presented itself, he murdered Titania, one of several Grapplers who moonlighted as costumed criminals. The Scourge then disguised himself as a construction worker at the new Four Freedoms Plaza. Having escaped his underground prison, the gem-empowered super-menace Basilisk entered the Plaza intent on attacking the Fantastic Four, but Scourge shot him dead.Next eliminating Hammer and Anvil while they fought the Hulk. He shot Hammer in the face, causing Anvil's death due to the symbiotic chain that linked the duo. Scourge then successfully killed three more super-criminals: the insect-powered Fly, Serpent Society founder Death Adder and ex-SHIELD speedster Blue Streak. The numerous deaths began to be attributed to a lone killer, and many super-villains feared for their lives. Criminal entrepreneur Gary Gilbert, formerly Firebrand, tried to organize a meeting of like-minded criminals at the Bar with no Name in Ohio, to discuss how to deal with the Scourge threat. Unbeknownst to him, Scourge had already targeted Gilbert and, posing as Bart the bartender, bided his time for the meeting.Elsewhere, Captain America began to investigate the killings after encountering a frightened Blacklash. He found few leads, as his main suspect was Foolkiller, who was institutionalized at the time. Gilbert, meanwhile, had gathered 17 other criminals for this meeting, during which Scourge revealed himself, shooting and killing them all. Those murdered included Gilbert, the winged Bird-Man, nostalgia Turner D. Century, the catlike Cheetah, modern-day pirate Commander Kraken, wind-manipulating Cyclone, wealthy criminal athlete Grappler, blade-firing energy parasite Hellrazor, high-tech highwayman Hijacker, Latin American HYDRA agent Jaguar, Grapplers founder Letha, high-tech telepath Mind-Wave, holographic illusionist Mirage, the swordsman Rapier, the hoop-tossing Ringer, high-tech gunman Shellshock, corrupt construction businessman Steeplejack and martial artist Vamp. The liquid-manipulating Water Wizard, running late found the dead bodies and called in Captain America.While the Avengers and local authorities investigated, Scourge made a failed attempt on the life of Flash Thompson, who was jailed and believed to be the criminal Hobgoblin. When Spider-Man intervened, Scourge escaped - but on his way out, he killed the psychic vigilante Wraith who had gone mad and was seeking vengeance on the police.Scourge then unsuccessfully tried to murder a hospitalized Diamondback, but she escaped with the help of her Serpent Society teammate Cobra. Captain America planned to draw him out by posing as a survivor of the bar massacre. Disguised as Mirage, Captain America was placed in protective custody and reports of Mirage's survival were circulated in the media. The ruse worked, as Scourge learned of his apparent failure and his informant Domino trailed the fake Mirage to a cabin in the wilderness. Trying to kill "Mirage," Scourge was ambushed and captured by Captain America.The Return of ScourgeMonths later, Scourge killed Albert Malik, the communist criminal mastermind who called himself the Red Skull. Scourge also attempted to kill John Walker, who had then taken over the identity of Captain America. Walker injured his attackers before confronting the original Captain America.After Walker gave the Captain America identity back to Rogers, a press conference for the event was set up. A government employee was hired to pose as a member of the Watchdogs extremist organization and "assassinate" Walker at the conference, with Rogers unaware of the plan to fake Walker's death. After seemingly shooting Walker, the "Watchdog" was shot by Scourge himself who was planning to assassinate Walker himself.Scourge targeted Curtiss Jackson, recently revealed to be the criminal Power Broker. He invaded Jackson's compound, killing numerous employees. At the time, Jackson was inside his home with adventurer Priscilla Lyons, who had previously worked with Nomad and Captain America as Vagabond. As the two discussed the possibility of Lyons receiving Jackson's power-enhancing treatment, Scourge assaulted the building. Jackson contacted General Lewis Haywerth, who sent Walker (now in the costumed identity of U.S. Agent) to investigate. Walker captured Scourge, but not before a frightened Jackson accidentally turned himself into a deformed monstrosity using his own machinery.Later Lyons required the U.S. Agent to save her from Scourge. In the process, World War II hero, the Angel (Thomas Halloway) was revealed as Scourge's financial backer, and Scourge was killed. Halloway was released due to lack of evidence.Powers and AbiltiesScourge most often utilized a .50 cal Thompson machine gun with a sawed-off barrel and stock using special purpose 5-round clips. The rounds are equipped with acceleration activated, delay-triggered explosive shells. Scourge also utilizes a mobile van that serves as a sort of base of operations, complete with weapons, disguises, computer system and sleeping quarters.

Somebody shouts for an encore, and Mallman obliges.
10:50 Backstage, I ask Mallman what he's going to do now. "Take a shower," he says. "Maybe watch A Clockwork Orange and fall asleep."
Did he ever feel like he was going to pass out? "All the time. But dude, it's so fucking easy. My dad ran a 50-mile trail run in the rain. His toenails fell off. And he's like, 'I don't know, I'm worried about your voice.' He ran for 11 hours in the rain. All I'm doing is sitting down, drinking."

Russian missile launch was "routine"
Monday - 3/10/2014, 5:13pm EDT
As if what's going on in Ukraine weren't enough, the Russian military on Tuesday test-fired a Topol intercontinental ballistic missile. The missile, fired from a launch pad in southern Russia, hit a designated target on a range leased by Russia from Kazakhstan. The National Security Council says, "This was a previously notified and routine test launch of an ICBM. As required under the New START Treaty, Russia provided advance notification of this launch to the United States. Such advance notifications are intended to provide transparency, confidence, and predictability and to help both sides avoid misunderstandings. Russia and the United States routinely flight test their ICBMs and SLBMs."

Figure 4.
Illustration of how variability in an INPUT-seq profile can affect reconstruction of average signal profile at TSS and TES. The top panel shows the average signal profiles at the TSS and TES for the ChIP-chip and ChIP-seq profiles of H3K27Me3 at E-16-20 h. These ChIP-chip and ChIP-seq profiles differ quite substantially, and the ChIP-seq profiles resemble that of the GC content variation (Figure 1c). We subsequently reprocessed the ChIP-seq sample by using the INPUT-seq at AdultFemale as background for normalization since this profile has a strong correlation with GC content variation, which more likely reflect the actual technology-specific biases of our sequencing platform. After this procedure, the average signal profiles of ChIP-chip and ChIP-seq look much more alike, indicating that the original INPUT-seq at E-16-20 h does not appropriately capture the technology-specific variation at these sites.

Second Place Winner: Thunderstorm at False Kiva
Category: Sense of Place
Photo and caption by max seigal
I hiked out to these ruins at night hoping to photograph them with the Milky Way, but instead a thunderstorm rolled through, creating this dramatic image. —Max Seigal National Geographic Traveler Director of Photography Dan Westergren, one of this year's judges, shares his thoughts on the second place winner: "This photo combines two different scenes into one: the small kiva in a cliff dwelling and the grand vista of Canyonlands National Park across the valley. I really like the two different color palettes—warm inside and purple outside. This two-for-one scene was caused by the lightning storm outside the dwelling, which lit up the landscape like it was a huge electronic flash. Looking at this picture I can imagine what a wonderful sight it must have been for the ancient people who lived here. It doesn't seem too amazing now in our modern world, but might have been mind-blowing for the prehistoric residents."

Staff Reporter
Sangareddy: Dissident TRS legislator T. Jayaprakash Reddy on Sunday claimed that at least eight TRS legislators, unhappy with the March 6 deadline imposed by party chief K. Chandrashekhar Rao, were ready to quit and join the dissidents.
Mr. Reddy said the MLAs were worried that a premature departure would anger the voters in their constituencies as development took a backseat during the past three-and-a-half years. He said that the legislators had no faith in their leader.
Activists caned
Warangal Staff Reporter writes: Several TRS activists sustained injuries when the police used force to disperse them when they tried to stall a meeting being attended by Major Irrigation Minister Ponnala Lakshmaiah and TRS rebel MLA D. Srinivasa Rao at Thorrur mandal here on Sunday.
The TRS workers gheraoed the Minister and MLA and demanded that they extend solidarity with the TRS for separate Telangana and also wanted them to resign their posts for the cause.
The activists raised slogans against the Minister and the MLA describing them 'betrayers' of Telangana.

But you're missing the

Then there's the themes of helping others in need, as I mentioned. Which someone pointed out was a Federation theme, but then again, Star Trek was largely
the Federation doing, well by golly, very much the same sorts of things we're seeing on New Romulus!
And yes, by this standard, any new content in, say, WoW, that has you exploring new places and helping new people is Trek-like content. Well that's because it's true. Just because you're an elf or troll doesn't mean exploring new places is any less in the spirit of Trek.
In closing, congratulation to most of you for missing the point of what Trek-like content is and having to have it explained to you.

I am fairly new to plex an managed to set up a media server and connect from my iphone via the plex app so far. Now I tried to connect from the plex app on my girlfriends ipad as well but can't add my media server there. It seems strange to my that it works having my server as the default server on my iphone but not on her ipad even though both devices are using the same preferences (IP and port). Also, logging in over plex/web works on both devices.
Can anyone give me a hint as why I can't add my media server as the default server on that ipad?
Many thanks in advance!

This preview from our Sept. 4 print edition looks at a new state law that should lower disproportionate fees for the largest credit unions in the state.
More than 165,000 pounds of paper shredded on July 20 as SDCCU stakes claim to new mark.
Credit union says it's one of the first financial institutions in the country to offer the mobile balance transfer service.
The $6.2 billion SDCCU adds facilities in Interstate 15 corridor of Inland North County area.
The $1.1 billion Eli Lilly Federal Credit Union in Indianapolis has hired veteran banker Ron Senci as its new vice president of lending.
A U.S. Department of Homeland Security memo that said the May 7 distributed denial of service attacks threatened by the so-called "hacktivist" collective Anonymous against government and financial websites would be more bark than bite prove to be true.
As the number of members using online banking continues to grow, credit unions are capitalizing on that trend by investing in solutions that have expanded opportunities to cross-sell products, increase brand awareness and enhance services.
Hirings, promotions, retirements among credit union people.
No credit union website takedowns reported Tuesday.
The effort to create a new technology standard for integrating credit union-specific software has marked a number of milestones since it was launched by members of the CUNA Technology Council.

Fatigue - don't let it get you down
Fatigue is common after stroke, with 50 percent of survivors in one study saying tiredness was their main problem twelve months on.
The cause of fatigue after stroke remains unclear but one simple explanation is that cognitive, physical and sensory changes after stroke mean everything takes more effort. There's also the theory the neuroplasticity involved in recovery is a physical process, which is actually fatiguing.
Fatigue can present as a feeling of weariness, tiredness or a lack of energy that is not improved by rest. It can be physical, mental or psychological. Symptoms of fatigue can include headache, dizziness, blurred vision, increased pain, aching muscles and reduced coordination and balance. Other symptoms include 'brain fog', impaired memory and decision-making, moodiness or irritability, anxiety and depression or low motivation.
Despite fatigue being so prevalent after stroke, it isn't always discussed until it becomes problematic. Knowing about fatigue is essential to recognise its impact on daily life and to identify strategies to minimise the effects.
Maree was completely unprepared: "I didn't know about post-stroke fatigue and so it was totally unexpected. It may have been mentioned in hospital and probably was in literature given to me at the time, however nothing and no-one seemed to emphasise the fact it can be such extreme tiredness."
Heather's experience of education around fatigue was different, but still difficult to navigate. "My occupational therapist made a big deal of it when I was returning to work. Which was both helpful in that people knew what to expect and harmful in that I wasn't as badly affected by it as everyone expected me to be. So even when I was happy to push limits other people were reluctant to let me."
For some stroke survivors fatigue improves over time, whilst for others it can be persistent and debilitating. "My fatigue still gets me down. It is still present, and has never really waned or improved dramatically. I have learned to live with it, but wish other normal people would understand how quickly I can tire" John said.
Some things that can help include:
Take care of yourself. Eat a healthy diet and drink adequate amounts of water. Get adequate sleep, go to bed at the same time each night and switch off electronic devices at least an hour before bed. And avoid drinking too much alcohol. Heather says "I'm four years post stroke now. I still need more sleep than other people and I don't always wake up 'awake'. Sitting down to watch telly or read a book on the weekend will usually result in an impromptu nap."
Listen to your body and know your limits. Plan regular rest breaks and recognise any patterns of fatigue. Do tasks in a way that uses less energy, like sitting down to get dressed. Break larger tasks into several smaller tasks. Most importantly, prioritise the tasks that are most important to you. Heather's advice is to "Plan and be aware. Remember everything takes energy and now you've got to conserve it. Get into a stable routine, but make space for naps as well. You can push through it but you'll pay for it later. Be especially vigilant for things like clumsiness which can be indications you've pushed too far."
Get some exercise. Move your body to stimulate good endorphins. Build up stamina and strength slowly and sensibly. John says it helps to "Establish a routine and try to stick to it. Remember to exercise, and don't sit around all day, even if you feel like it."
Ask for advice and support. Talk to your doctor, especially about your medications, as some can contribute to fatigue. Talk about it with supportive friends, family and other stroke survivors who have been through it.
Finally, take up some of those offers of help: you don't have to do everything yourself. Heather's learnt a lot about fatigue since her stroke. "I do have to watch out if it's a stressful week at work, I find that can trigger a fatigue hit, also things like colds and sunburn that put pressure on the immune system can trigger it too. Also remember it accumulates unless dealt with. Don't just ignore it."
Maree's best tip? "Accepting it, first of all. Fatigue certainly has a way of making you slow down, allowing your body to heal and ultimately that's a good thing."
If you need advice or have any questions about fatigue please call us on StrokeLine 1800 STROKE (1800 787 653).

In defense of the Padres
Quantifying can be dubious, but by their measure, glove work is better
Which fits perfectly into the Padres' blueprint for a successful future — pitching, speed, defense … or speed, pitching, defense … or …
"If we consistently take advantage of the things that we can do well, I think we're going to be more successful than a lot of people expect," said second baseman David Eckstein, who plays a major role in the Padres' overall defensive scheme although he doesn't score very high on the UZR chart.
"I don't know if you can judge defense strictly by statistics," Eckstein said. "A lot of defense is putting yourself in the right position to make plays. How do you statistically measure that?"
Good point, says Stein.
"The biggest issue with UZR grades is that you don't know where the player started on any given play," Stein said. "UZR grades range, but that range can be skewed if the player is not starting from the exact middle of their chart.
"UZR is probably a better measure over a long period of time rather than a month or even a season."
Which is why the Padres don't use UZR to measure their defense. They have their own system, developed over time by senior quantitative analyst Chris Long.
What is the Padres' system? They will not say.
"It's there and we use it, but we really don't want to share what goes into it," Stein said.
But under the Padres' grading, they like the direction of their defense.
"I thought we had a real good defense in 2007," Stein said. "We had Mike Cameron in center, Khalil Greene at short. That defense graded out among the best in the major leagues.
"A year later, Cameron was gone and Greene missed part of the season and the defense was not good. Last year it started a tick below average but got better."
This year?
"I think we're going to be much more capable of covering the gaps in the outfield and being consistent on the infield," Hoffman said. "Our bench players are much stronger defensively than they were last season. And the catching has improved."
Even the UZR statistics are encouraging.
In all of baseball, only one first baseman (Kendry Morales of the Angels) has a higher UZR than Adrian Gonzalez, the Padres' two-time Gold Glove winner.
And center fielder Tony Gwynn and right fielder Will Venable both rank in the top 10 at their respective positions.
"When you are evaluating defense, right now you are still relying more on scouts," Stein said. "The UZR is helpful to a degree but not definitive."
Especially for a position such as catcher, where there is no range score — and no way to measure how a catcher is framing pitches.
The Padres' Yorvit Torrealba ranked third in the UZR scoring for the 2009 season, although he threw out only 7.5 percent of the runners who tested his arm.
The Padres believe they are improved defensively over where they were at the start of the 2009 season at all three outfield positions, shortstop and catcher.
The biggest question is at third base where Chase Headley succeeds Kouzmanoff.
The Padres expect to see major gains by Everth Cabrera, who ranked 20th on the UZR scale despite high marks on range.
Fifteen of his 23 errors came during the final 28 games as the rookie was wearing down mentally and physically.
"When you look at the progress Everth has made, he is going to be much stronger defensively," Hoffman said. "He made the difficult plays. He just needs to be more consistent on the routine plays."

The two drama series will be returning to the network for at least one more season each
Showtime has renewed two of it's most popular shows, Homeland and Masters of Sex, for additional seasons past their current run. The network announced their plans to continue each series by at least one more season by a public statement, released via Entertainment Weekly, on Tuesday, 22 October.
The cast of Homeland won't be going anywhere soon
David Nevins, President of entertainment on Showtime, said in the statement, "Homeland continues to prove its strength for Showtime, and is one of television's most exciting, provocative and widely-discussed shows. It has grown its audience significantly in each of its three seasons. The critical and audience reaction to Masters of Sex since its great launch has been incredibly gratifying. It's a privilege to get to work with such talented and creative people as Alex Gansa and Michelle Ashford, as well as their tremendous casts. They have each created truly original shows, with distinctive voices that are among the most admired series on television."
Both shows are due to return to the network next year and both will return with a 12-episode run - the same amount as the season preceding it.
Each of the drama series have emerged as Showtime's most popular shows, especially since the end of Dexter earlier this year. When Dexter finished, Homeland moved to the top of Showtime's ratings average, bringing in approximately 6.5 million viewers across all platforms each week. Master of Sex has also enjoyed strong viewing figures since debuting this year, bringing in roughly 5.4 million per new episode. Whilst Homeland enjoys being Showtime's most popular series for now, there is a chance that by the time the two shows return to our screen, Masters of Sex will be the main ratings winner.
Michael Sheen and Lizzy Caplan have both received recognition for their acting on Masters of Sex
The third, current seasons for Homeland has so far been met with largely positive reviews, however many are complaining about the over-complex story lines that seem to run into brick walls, and as a result the current run has become the least popular season, according to MetaCritic, of the show. Masters of Sex on the other hand is one of the most positively reviewed shows of the year, and it's audience figures could soon eclipse Homeland's as it continues to bring in a wider audience.
Homeland ould be ousted at Showtime's most popular show by next season

Friday February 22, 2008
By JACK WONG and SHARON LING
KUCHING: Tan Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud will not defend his Kota Samarahan parliamentary seat to make way for his son Datuk Sri Sulaiman Abdul Rahman Taib.
The Sarawak Chief Minister, who has served as MP for 40 years, said he was not seeking re-election to concentrate more on his work at state-level.
At 71, he said he was getting old.
Taib said although there were several requests to nominate Sulaiman as a Barisan Nasional candidate in the 2004 state election, he did not allow it.
"I did not want him (Sulaiman) to stand in the state election for the simple reason that people will speculate that he will be my successor (as Chief Minister) when I step down.
"Now, he has to prove himself as Sulaiman Abdul Rahman and not Taib junior," Taib said after announcing the state Barisan's 31 parliamentary candidates at Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) headquarters at Jalan Bako here yesterday.
Sulaiman, 39, is former RHB Bank chairman and is now non-executive director of Cahya Mata Sarawak Bhd (CMSB) controlled by the Taib family.
He is also the son-in-law of Deputy Chief Minister Tan Sri Dr George Chan Hong Nam.
