In the lines of the hugely popular Indian Premier League [ Images ] cricket Twenty20 [ Images ] tournament, the Badminton Association of India on Saturday launched a franchise-based Indian Badminton League (IBL), which will see the top Indian players play along with the best players from around the world next year.
BAI announced that the $1 million (Rs 5.5 crores) IBL is the richest prize money badminton tournament in the world. It will commence with six city based franchises, involving 28 ties of best of five matches for a maximum of 140 matches played over three weeks, from June 24 to July 11 next year.India's Olympic bronze medallist Saina Nehwal [ Images ] hailed the tournament launch as a historic moment for Indian badminton.
"This is a historic moment for Indian badminton. Post 2012 Olympics [ Images ], the passion for badminton has reached a peak in India and I'm confident the IBL will make the game even more popular among the masses," Nehwal said at the launch in Mumbai [ Images ].
The matches will be played in the Sudirman Cup [ Images ] format and follow the rules and regulations of the Badminton world Federation (BWF) and BAI. Each team will comprise of one men's singles, men's doubles, women's doubles and mixed doubles event. The team that wins three out of five matches will win the tie.
The top Indian players including the likes of Nehwal, doubles specialist Jwala Gutta [ Images ] and Ashwini Ponnappa, the find of 2012 Olympics P Kashyap and rising star PV Sindhu will be categorized as Icon players for their franchises and will start with a base price of $50,000 in the players' auction.Strangely, the top-ranked players in the world like Lee Wei Chong, Lin Dan [ Images ] in the men's and Wang Yihan and Li Xuerui in the women's will start with a base price of $25,000.When asked if the world's top players would be ready to play under such discrimination, IBL commercial partner Sporty Solutionz Pvt Ltd. CEO Ashish Chadha said: "This is the first time the players are getting appearance money to play in a tournament. The minimum amount they will get to take part in the IBL is $25,000 whereas you get just $20,000 as prize money in the top tournaments around the world."He also added that the Malaysia's top players have confirmed to take part in the tournament, while talks are already initiated with the top-ranked Chinese players to get them to play in the IBL."We will also have players from Indonesia, Denmark, Germany [ Images ] and Korea among others taking part in the IBL and making it one of the best badminton tournaments in the world," he said.Each franchise will comprise of 11 players including a maximum of four foreigners and a junior (under-20) player. The rules stipulate only three foreign players can be fielded in a match.The IBL will offer $1 million are prize money out of which 65 percent will go to the winning team and 35 percent to the runners up.Former All England [ Images ] champion and national coach P Gopichand, who was also present at the launch, said the IB will act as a great catalyst in motivating the young players."The IBL heralds a new era in Indian badminton. It will provide a great opportunity for our players to play along with the best players of the world and learn from them," he said.

11-10-2012, 03:36 PM #2The cash rich league will be held next year from June 24 to July 11.The IBL is a joint initiative of the Badminton Association of India (BAI) and its commercial partner Sporty Solutionz Private Ltd.The IBL has been sanctioned by the world body, BWF, which has provided window for the tournament in the annual calendar.Eight cities Delhi, Nagpur, Pune, Mumbai, Lucknow, Chennai, Hyderabad and Bangalore have been shortlisted six of them would be up for open sales in the first year. The base price of each team is Rs.3.5 crore.Each team can have up to four foreign players. But only two are available to play in the best-of-five ties on the lines of the Sudirman Cup world team championships.
Malaysia has already confirmed participation of the players.
Malaysia has already confirmed to send all its players (including Olympic silver medal winner Lee Chong Wei). The BAI has already approached the Chinese authorities, said Sporty Solutionz CEO Ashish Chadha at the media conference.Apart from the icon players, Indian players in the top 20 would have a base price of $20,000 and while internationals will have a base price of $10,000.
The base price of Indian national players and junior players have been fixed at $5,000 and 3,000.
Foreign players ranked in the top-10 will have a base price of $25,000 while those from 11-25 would have $15,000 as the base price.
Malaysia and Indonesia have already confirmed the participation of their top players while China's have been approached, organisers said.
India will launch a franchise-based badminton tournament next year on the lines of crickets cash-rich Indian Premier League (IPL) with top shuttlers from across the world, the organisers said on Saturday.
Chadha said that there would be prize money only for the winners and runners-up in the ratio of 65:35. This is the business model we are adopting. The winners of the title would recover most of their investment in the first year itself as the winning prize works out to Rs 3.5 crore and the expenses, including acquisition of team, players salary and other running expenses, would be around Rs 5 crore, he said.
We will be announcing the franchise teams in the coming weeks and the players auction would be held in March, he said, adding each team will have eleven players including one under 20 years of age. Players would be contracted for five years. They would be with one franchise for two years, he said.
The funniest thing in this article is that ponappa and gutta are 50k, yet foreigners are £25k. Discrimination much? Those 2 are not worth 5k let alone 50k.
So,as the IBL is officially announced today...Here is a promo in the official channel.I personally think it's a bit overdone but we can cope with it...
I think so you did not quite get the concept actually.The league only allows a limited amount of foreign players in a team and the rest Indian players.This was the concept used in IPL and IBL is following that now.So,as the bidders are limited in terms of foreign players they have to go for Indian players there.And for the context with no offence to anyone many Indians does not even know the names of chen long,yihan wang,xin wang or even lee chong wei or lindan.And here in this concept the bidders or the team franchises does not get their income from prize money but get their income from other things related to popularity in India.So,naturally Indian players are sold to a greater price than others.
As you asked I would post the first ever auction list of IPL.There you can clearly see that even a higher base price player can be left unsold and a lower baseprice player can get more after the auction.
Last edited by depleter; 11-10-2012 at 04:34 PM.
I understand the concept completely, but what I am saying is why would you take this pair for 100k, when you can have a lower grade pair for this event, and save your $ for the big names.
The marketing of this event cannot be very good if you do not know who LD and LCW is. They are the best players of the last 10 years and yet you're telling me that you want to hold a $1M event when fans will be wondering who on earth are these players?
It's just simple,you can actually see the other list I provided after auctions of Ipl...the Indian players naturally got more than the other players.It's just that many fans In India don't know other players even players like lin dan or lee chong wei.The problem is that many don't even have the source to know them as the badminton tournaments are not aired in main sports channels preferred by cable operators.So,the only source they can depend on is News papers or Internet.And in India all we can see in news papers about badminton is only saina and sometimes about other Indian players.
You are right, but what depleter is saying is not wrong either. Of course the base price for LD, LCW and other top players is not justified. But once the auction starts I am pretty sure their price will multiply by many folds. Having said that I still cant understand by what logic they decided the base price.
The only thing I can think of, as depleter pointed out, is the popularity of the players among the Indian population. Majority of the Indian population is ignorant of the many of the top badminton stars for the lack of media coverage. Indian media broadcasts matches of Indian players only, well most of the times.
But once the IBL kicks off it will give people a chance to know about them and their popularity will rise.
All we need is IBL to succeed, once that happens then it will open the flood gates. This happened in cricket through IPL. Hundreds of relatively unknown players, those who were languishing in obscurity, started earning hundreds of thousands of dollars if not millions. I hope this brings same kind of fortune to our beloved badminton players not just Indian but to players of all nations.
Asked why someone like Wei (sic) would accept a base price of USD 25,000, when Kashyap was getting at least double that as his fees, Chadha said the Malaysian star and all others would be put up for the players' auction, where his price would be determined.
Present at the launch, Saina said, "It's a historic moment for Indian badminton. The game has become bigger and that's why this is happening. Like the IPL in cricket, there is a lot of interest and I hope it is really successful."
Not sure if my guess is correct, but going by the Cricket IPL, even if Jwala and Ponnappa are in one team, they might not play together... Jwala could partner with, say, Ma Jin or Yong Dae Lee!
It will be played in Sudirman format. So I guess they wouldnt allow more than 3-4 foreign players in overall MS, WS, MD, WD,XD event.Last edited by paroxysmal; 11-11-2012 at 06:47 AM.
If they pay jwala/aswini, the franchise can retrieve that money using all other things like ads, marketing. Because these players' names are marketable in India. Lin dan may be familiar in china, but he is considered as one of the badminton players in india. Even Lee chong wei is popular here but not lindan.

Best New York pizza: The top 25 pies in the city
Our five-borough tour of the best New York pizza skips from legendary institutions to new-wave joints. Here are the reigning pies in Gotham.
Mon Sep 17 2012
Photograph: Caroline Voagen Nelson
In 1905, Lombardi's opened as New York's first pizzeria, bringing the simple Italian dish to Gotham. Owner Gennaro Lombardi helped train a generation of pizzaioli, dispatching thin-crust acolytes all over the city: Patsy Lancieri over to East Harlem with Patsy's, John Sasso to the West Village with John's of Bleecker Street, and Anthony Pero out to Coney Island with Totonno's. Since then, a new generation has ushered in traditional Neapolitan-style pies (Kesté Pizza & Vino), wildly creative toppings (Paulie Gee's) and, of course, the fried-pizza craze (Forcella). The onetime exotic immigrant food is now synonymous with Gotham, and arguing over the city's best pizza has become a classic New York pastime. With that in mind, we trekked all over town to find out if old favorites still lived up to their reputation and if new pizzerias could rise to the fierce competition. Here are the best New York pizza spots.

I agree with Robert A that apparently, the editor was "unwilling to travel outside of young hipster areas".
Also, I live across the street from Sal and Carmines and they're awful. I'm sure they used to be good, but nowadays it's a shanty pizza joint with pizza that's been sitting for hours. Honestly, sounds like the editor googled his facts instead of actually trying the pizza. TERRIBLE!~
TimeoutNY just lost it's credentials.

I agree wholeheartedly with Holly. VIPizza in Bayside definitely does not get the recognition it deserves.
Marissa Wed Oct 17 2012 -
This system isn't even based on the same type of pizza. it goes from traditional to the overpriced fancy pies. Have a rating based on the standard margarita of each place. its an unfair rating. TONY you disappoint me.

Your reviewers seem to go back to the same old, same old places in the boroughs, like Nicks, which is fine but try the Margarita at VIPizza on Bell Blvd in Bayside and report back.

PHOENIX – On March 13, 2012, a federal grand jury in Phoenix returned an eight-count indictment against Lee Kinder Tso, 50, of Many Farms, Ariz. for violations of Assault Resulting in Serious Bodily Injury, Assault with a Dangerous Weapon, and Use of a Firearm During a Crime of Violence. Tso is a member of the Navajo Nation.
The indictment alleges that on Feb. 3, 2012, Tso used a rifle to shoot two victims on the Navajo Nation Indian Reservation, causing the victims serious physical injury.
A conviction for each count of both Assault Resulting in Serious Physical Injury and Assault with a Dangerous Weapon carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison, a $250,000 fine, or both. A conviction for Use of a Firearm During a Crime of Violence carries a maximum of 10 years to life in prison, consecutive to any other prison time imposed. In determining an actual sentence, Judge Neil V. Wake will consult the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines, which provide appropriate sentencing ranges. The judge, however, is not bound by those guidelines in determining a sentence.
An indictment is simply a method by which a person is charged with criminal activity and raises no inference of guilt. An individual is presumed innocent until competent evidence is presented to a jury that established guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
The investigation preceding the indictment was conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Navajo Nation Police Department. The prosecution is being handled by Jennifer E. Green, Assistant U.S. Attorney, District of Arizona, Phoenix.

Native Californians, Dana Johnston and Erik Marinovich met in a sculpture class at California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo. After a few missed opportunities to request dates or have conversations, the couple finally connected just prior to Dana's graduation. A two-and-a-half-year long-distance relationship followed before the couple moved to New York together. A few years later, on the night before Dana's birthday, Erik popped the question. With a wedding in the works back in their home state, the two decided the time was right to move back to San Francisco.
Now, Dana is an art director and Erik is a graphic designer and typographer. Together, they are The Big Animals. Erik is also the cofounder of a blog called Friends of Type.
Erik designed all of the stationery and collateral himself. Perfectly illustrating the story of how their relationship progressed, the save-the-date was an illustration of the Brooklyn Bridge merged with the Golden Gate Bridge. The connector platform was a pencil that announced "Dana and Erik are getting married!" Inside the folded paper, the basic details of the wedding were listed, accompanied by an illustration of the California state flag.
Erik also designed a wedding website with all pertinent information and a hint of the personality of the wedding to come.
The invitations were packaged in unused writing tablets from the 1950s. Erik illustrated his and Dana's seven-year relationship using two small characters, drawn into all the major moments in their years together. Underneath was the formal invitation, also printed on vintage paper. It was attached to the folder with grommets and accompanied by an RSVP card attached by photo corners to the opposing side.
Just above the outgoing address on each invitation, Erik laser-etched the witty line: "Dear postman warmly deliver this tender parcel to our fine guests."
Wanting to host their wedding at a location that evoked classic California, and that would feel like a weekend retreat for the friends and family making the trip, Dana and Erik settled on a spot hidden in the hills of Carmel Valley. The Holman Ranch is a historic hacienda, and its lawn provided a perfect ceremony setting overlooking the hills.
The ceremony was officiated by Doris Slater, a longtime friend of the bride's mother. The emotion-filled nuptials including readings by friends, among them excerpts from letters the couple had written to each other. In their letters they explained why they wanted to be married to each other.
To kick off the celebration, guests were served a signature cocktail dubbed "The Lady Dee" in honor of the bride. Composed of vodka, soda, and Chambord, and served with a twist, it was accompanied by printed cocktail napkins featuring one of Erik's drawings of the characters dancing to music with the word "yes" underneath. They were foil stamped in gold at Partybasics.com.
Cocktail hour music was strictly Big Band style, played in memory of Erik's late grandfather.
Dana wanted a dress with classic glamour and smooth lines. She got just that with her Marisa gown. The flower in her hair was her "something borrowed" -- her bridesmaid Vanessa had worn the flower on her own wedding day.
The groom's gray Paul Smith suit was accessorized with a tie bar, a pre-wedding gift from friend Dennis Payongayong.
Even the couple's footwear matched the wedding palette. Her purple heels were from Boutique 9; his socks were Paul Smith.
The four girls wore purple Moulinette Soeure dresses from Anthropologie and carried bouquets that included colorful roses.
The men posed for a photo on the lawn with photographer Thayer Allyson Gowdy. Their gray suits were from Uniqlo, and their socks and ties were Paul Smith.
Erik and his groomsmen also wore skinny lilac suspenders.
The organic menu for the evening was prepared by Paradise Catering. The company grows much of its own produce for its seasonal cuisine. Guests started with a salad of grilled artichoke with lemon aioli topped with goat cheese crumbles, caramelized pecans, edible flowers, and honey and thyme dressing.
Guests could choose between a surf-and-turf main course and a vegetarian offering. The fish (seared salmon) and sirloin (grilled tri-tip) were served with Gorgonzola mashed potatoes and asparagus with bernaise sauce. The vegetarian lasagna was accompanied by polenta Gorgonzola.
For the menu, Erik drew illustrations of each course in the typeface he developed just for the wedding.
The menu was wrapped around a hidden playlist card; the playlist was curated by dear friends Jason and Jordan (of EnormousChampion) and given as a gift by the couple, who were unable to attend the wedding.
Erik's father, Dominik Marinovich, and uncle, Ognjen, make wine together. Each year, with the help of the other men in the family (including Erik), they pick eight barrels of grapes and turn them into wine.
This 2007 blend of cabernet and Syrah was made especially for Dana and Erik's wedding. Erik designed the tags explaining the wine's origins.
With plenty of kids in attendance, Dana and Erik wanted to give them a special table where they could play. Set up with coloring books, crayons, stickers, glow stick jewelry, bouncing balls, Slinky toys, colorful plastic cups with silly straws, and some candy, it kept all the young guests happily occupied. The bonus: The bride and groom were given multiple art projects as a result.
While the couple lived in New York City, they attended a fair and stumbled upon the work of artist Charley Harper. They later purchased their first piece of artwork together, fittingly by Harper. When the artist published his book, "Charley Harper: An Illustrated Life," they bought a copy to use for their guestbook.
After dinner, guests moved over to the carriage house for dancing. A DJ played music selected by the groom.
The bride and her father, Daniel Johnston, took to the dance floor to "All I Have to Do Is Dream" by the Everly Brothers. As a little girl, Dana used to sing the song with her father and sister in the car. During the dance, her father sang along, and guests joined in.
Patisserie Bechler created the French-buttercream-covered cake and decorated it with fresh flowers on each tier.
The cake was actually two flavors: St. Michel (a chocolate sponge cake with chocolate mousse and splash of Grand Marnier) and Brie au Kirsch (a vanilla sponge cake with vanilla custard, almond meringue, and Kirschwasser liqueur).
Here, Erik and Dana share a slice of the Brie au Kirsch flavor.
Bottles of wine made by the groom's father and uncle were given to guests as favors. The half-liter bottles featured labels with a series of the groom's illustrations and a few Croatian phrases ("celebrate," "play," and "cheers") to pay homage to the groom's heritage and the history of wine-makers in the family.
Photographer Thayer Allyson Gowdy set up a self-portrait station using the inside wall of the carriage house as a backdrop. The bridesmaids gladly struck a pose.

Jerry weapon as I mentioned is right here he says it's time for investors to shift their perspectives.
Into that -- start making money no matter what the market's doing what don't we always want to do that.
Of course we do but I think so many events of the last 45 years have gotten people looking for somebody to blame.
-- -- about what's gone wrong focusing on the negative in the meantime.
A lot of money's been made by individuals and by investors buy companies around the world and I'm just try to get investors to think a little more about where money is and can be made.
Well here's what -- -- think about you just made the point a lot of money's been made the S&P 500 since what 2009.
Up 45%.
Folks when you're talking about your money don't -- caught up in who you hate politically or who you love.
It's the trade and that's what we're doing here on Fox Business so at the moment my question -- you then becomes what would you be and what do you stay away from.
Well right now I think people need to look.
Back at the manufacturing growth that strong in the US in the have to think about who that's gonna -- to make more money who's gonna benefit from the cheap energy in the US.
We still have to look I know what's -- tired story.
But we need to look at the shifts in the emerging markets who -- China successfully moves toward a consumer based economy.
Who's going to sell consumer goods in China.
They may not be Chinese companies look for what they are and by the way you know we were looking for are reading glasses have to -- -- -- to four years old as me Liz.
But how about selling stuff to old people like me who don't see as well virtue was Weller sleep as well -- whatever we.
And -- look at the demographic shift yep look at the money shipping you say don't sit there on top of a pile of cash into what -- -- cops well.
Put it to work I put some of it to work.
I think people you know -- somebody on a little earlier talking about where they could.

If you're looking for some power without worrying about space limitations or big cabinets to take away from a room environment, Proficient has introduced an in-ceiling speaker that packs a punch.
Proficient's C1030 LCR in-ceiling was developed specifically for larger home theater rooms and high-end cinema systems, the company says, with a three-way configuration that provides a kick while not hogging space like a floorstanding behemoth might. Its configuration features a 10-inch Kevlar woofer mounted in a cast magnesium basket; a 3-inch Kevlar midrange and 1-inch pivoting Aluminum tweeter.
All of that plus the componentry adds up to 200 watts of power handling, Proficient says.
Along with power, the C1030's midrange and tweeter bridge set at a 15 degree angle, aids in sonic clarity and accuracy by pushing the critical midrange and high frequencies to the listeners' ears rather than the floor, the company says.
For 7.1 systems, the C1030s make for an ideal solution as the rear and side surrounds as well, and bass and treble can be adjusted up or down via +/- 3dB contour switches. Go to www.proficientaudio.com for more.

The Thief of Bagdad [DVD]
Director : Ludwig Berger, Michael Powell, Tim Whelan
Screenplay : Miles Malleson (scenario by Lajos Biró)
MPAA Rating : NR
Year of Release : 1940
Stars : Conrad Veidt (Jaffar), Sabu (Abu), June Duprez (Princess), John Justin (Ahmad), Rex Ingram (Djinni), Miles Malleson (Sultan), Morton Selten (The Old King), Mary Morris (Halima), Bruce Winston (The Merchant), Hay Petrie (Astrologer), Adelaide Hall (Singer), Roy Emerton (Jailer)
There is an innocence to The Thief of Bagdad that is notably unusual in today's theaters. With rare exception, even those movies that are explicitly aimed at children today feel the need to have an ironic edge, proving their coolness with pop culture references and levels of visual sophistication that are less about creating wonderment than proving their technological prowess (see, for example, the Wachowski Brothers' overwhelmingly hyperkinetic Speed Racer). The film boasts three directors--Ludwig Berger, Michael Powell, and Tim Whelan--who, despite conventional wisdom, managed to meld their styles to the point that is difficult to determine who directed what. Shot in lavish Technicolor at a time when color movies were exceptionally rare, The Thief of Bagdad is a guileless ode to the childlike awe of fantasy and exoticism.
Produced during World War II by the great Hungarian-born British filmmaker Alexander Korda, The Thief of Bagdad is certainly a visual marvel, combining virtually every kind of special effect known at the time, plus a new innovation known as blue screen that allowed them to create images of a flying horse and a giant djinni. Although some of the effects may seem crude by today's standards, they are done with such finesse and love of the magic of movies that you'd have to go back to the trick films of Georges Méliès to find something comparable. The Thief of Bagdad revels in the fantastical, asking us to believe in the imagery not because it's necessarily realistic, but because abandoning logic and reason and all the other trappings of the adult world are the only way to get in sync with its vibe.
The screenplay, credited to the prolific actor/writer Miles Malleson (the credit for the scenario goes to Lajos Biró), draws freely from the set of classic Eastern tales originally known as The Arabian Nights, which were later collected under the title The Thousand and One Nights and brought to Europe by Antoine Galland in the early 1700s. Since then, the characters and stories have been so thoroughly dispersed throughout Western culture that they have entered our collective unconscious. We know all about the djinni in the lamp and the flying carpet, which at this point are like tropes to be reworked however best suits the narrative at hand.
Originally filmed in 1924 with Douglas Fairbanks as the eponymous thief, Korda's version of The Thief of Badgad gives us dual heroes: the young thief Abu (Sabu) and a deposed king named Ahmad (John Justin). Ahmad is tricked by his nefarious advisor Jaffar (Conrad Veidt), who has him imprisoned and steals his throne. Ahmad and Sabu escape, but trouble ensues when Ahmad and Jaffar both fall in love with the same princess (June Duprez). Thus, the story mixes together adventure and romance, political scheming and pure fantasy. Its whimsical view of human nature and the easy divides between good and evil are simple and clean-cut, as is its vision of love-at-first-sight romance that overcomes all time and space. Of course, that is precisely what we would want, as the introduction of any kind of irony or distance would cause the entire enterprise to sink.
Because this is a film aimed at kids, it is not surprising that the weight of the story rests on the slender shoulders of Abu, who is the ultimate representation of pure, unbridled freedom. Played by Sabu, a young Indian actor who had been discovered a few years earlier by Korda for his 1937 film The Elephant Boy, Abu skates through life, living off his thievery, which is excused due to its necessity. He laughs while being chased through the city streets and can't understand why Ahmad would want to stick around to see a woman when he has a chance to explore the world.
At times, The Thief of Bagdad feels a bit creaky, but its whimsy more than compensates for some of its narrative clunkiness. The images on screen are consistently marvelous, giving us a typically exotic, storybook view of the Middle East cleverly built out of matte paintings and miniatures. While we might now crease our brows at the film's obvious political incorrectness (it is, after all, a British production rife with colonialist assumptions about foreign lands), it is more worthwhile to recognize and appreciate the film's adoration of all things magical and unique, a worldview that is all too often lost in a world in which cynicism carries too much currency.

Release Date | May 27, 2008 |
The Thief of Bagdad was originally released on DVD back in 2002 in a bare-bones edition by MGM. I haven't seen that disc, and while I have read various accounts of the transfer's quality, I'm not in a position to make direct comparisons. However, I can say that the Criterion transfer, which was made from the British Film Institute's 35mm restoration internegative, looks great. The Technicolor palette is beautifully rendered, although you will note that it is not as glaring and bold as some Technicolor films. Digital restoration has ensured a near complete absence of dirt and signs of age, although it appears that in at least one scene the three-strip Technicolor negatives have shrunk to the point that they couldn't be perfectly aligned so there is some bleeding and fuzziness. The liner notes don't mention that the transfer was done in high definition, which may be why some of the film grain in the blue skies sometimes looks a bit noisy. Otherwise, the colors look great and the image is well-detailed, if just a tad soft (again, likely a result of the three-strip process). The original monaural soundtrack, transferred at 24-bit from the 35mm recorded sound negative and a 35mm original nitrate print, sounds excellent, with no pops or aural hiss. Criterion has also included a separate music and effects track. | |
While it is debatable how much of an improvement Criterion's image quality is over the previously available MGM disc, there is no comparison when it comes to supplements. Criterion has given The Thief of Bagdad the royal treatment in the supplementary department, starting with two audio commentaries that alone will make this two-disc set essential viewing for fans of the film. The first commentary is by directors Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorsese, both of whom grew up with the film and have a strong love of it (Coppola even begins singing along with Sabu at one point). Both directors have plenty of insight into the film and express their deep admiration for it without fawning, and my only complaint about the track is that they weren't recorded together (imagine the interplay between them had they been). The second audio track is by film historian and Criterion regular Bruce Eder, who gives another of his deeply informative, thoroughly engaging commentaries. There is also a new half-hour documentary titled Visual Effects, which interviews special-effects masters Ray Harryhausen, Dennis Muren, and Craig Barron about the film's technological achievements. While most everyone who was directly involved in the film's production has passed away, we do get some direct insight into the film via extensive excerpts from codirector Michael Powell's audio dictations for his autobiography and excerpts from a 1976 radio interview with composer Miklos Rózsa. There are also two stills galleries: "Production and Publicity Stills," which contains several shots from deleted scenes that I can only assume have been long lost, and "Dufaycolor Stills," which consists of photographs taken on the film's set that come from Michael Powell's personal collection and have never before been published. The latter gallery is particularly intriguing because it shows how some of the special effects, including hanging miniatures, were used. And, once you're done exhausting the supplements that go behind the scenes of The Thief of Bagdad, you can finish with a viewing of The Lion Has Wings (1940), a propaganda feature film Alexander Korda produced for the English war effort while Thief was in production hiatus. While not a particularly good film, it is a fascinating artifact of the World War II era and well worth seeing. |

Original Article: Here is something that should please many users as well as the content providers for the PS3. Following up on my previous article that showed how you could block ports on your router to access Netflix and various other methods to access services without a PSN Login.
Now today a user by the name of Hells Guardian. has posted a method for DEX consoles to Access Services such as Netflix, Hulu and many others without the need to block anything. It is said that this method should only be used for Banned Consoles, They kick you off their network, now you have kicked them off your PS3. Oh the irony!!.
An UPDATED quote from Hells Guardian (updated on July 31st)
This will cause anything related to the PSN from logging in to creating an account to browsing the store and even the whats new section to simply return a DNS error 80710104
This also Bypasses all game update checks too!!!!
1. Must Start on DEX Convert it using the guides for rebug CFW..
2. In rebug toolbox under selector section set the following
Mode: rebug
XMB operation mode: Debug
Debug Menu: DEX
3. Go to debug Settings
4. Find the setting Update Server URL and change to anything (I used www.****yousony.net)
5. Find the NP environment setting under Debug Settings
6. change NP environment to a blank/invalid entry
7. Restart
8. try to sign in to make sure you are blocking PSN access
The Following is optional
9. using the rebug toolbox revert back to CEX
10. Follow the on screen instructions to reboot (if it dosent just do so)
11. try signing in. you should be greated with the same DNS error as when on DEX with an invalid NP.
12. enjoy your CEX machine with a PSN bypass.

Illinois' pension reform law (slightly) improves state's fiscal outlook
By Benjamin Yount | Illinois Watchdog

Pouilly-Fuissé has an emerald-golden hue. It is usually very brilliant. The bouquet is seductive : floral and fruity with a dominance of ripe fruit and fresh almonds. After some time in the bottle, Pouilly-Fuissé develops a lovely, complex bouquet. On the palate, the wine is round and dry. As such, it is a nice expression of the Chardonnay.
Although Pouilly-Fuissé can be enjoyed young after one or two years of age, it can be left a few years in the cellar, provided that it comes from a good vintage.
The wine should be served at 12 to 14oC. It goes well with shellfish, fish, quenelles, white meats in creamy sauce, poultry and sweetbreads.
Since 1880, Maison Joseph Drouhin has built a reputation for wines that primarily reflect their individual terroir and vintage.

All right another -- swing state down despite unemployment eleven point 8% the highest foreclosure rate in the nation.
Nevada still is a major swing state this election.
And -- a we've signed a lot today guest at which apparently a look at what local business leaders are saying about tomorrow Adam.
And it is about employment here in Las Vegas Clark County -- H USA today just talked about the fact that if Mitt Romney wins Clark -- he could win Nevada but to talk about unemployment and how that's playing in.
To the resurgence of Las Vegas we're joined by the CEO of Angel management group bill Moffitt they run some of the night -- here and the industry the top eight revenue grossing nightclubs in the world are right here in Las Vegas one of them pure at Caesars palace this month it's gonna talk was about this.
You're about to expand a hundred million dollar expansion at things really recovered that well here.
We believe that the market -- we generated since the since 2007 and then really audiences continues to grow.
And visitation is changed primarily from -- gaming markets more of a cross -- the food and beverage giant diamond hospitality so it's it's it's good -- Las Vegas -- -- we're concerned yes.
And when we talk about Las Vegas most of us think about gaming and about resorts but we were just discussing that the demographic is now.
Seems to be catering to the twenty somethings as well as the nightclub -- every to -- was -- Prince Harry here at fact one of your clubs that but it wet republic.
But these these nightclubs generate up to eighty million dollars the top nightclubs that's an astronomical figure.
It absolutely is but I think most what Las Vegas is done -- has really been able to say this several demographics of people so.
And what do you 21 years of racism market is -- over the you'll -- for forty years of age.
We can tech -- exceptionally well in Las Vegas he's unique enough facts so why is Angel management group committing to a hundred million dollars an expansion to discuss some of the partnerships you just announced.
And we've announced a partnership with -- Pakistan we build enough projects in the MGM ground.
And that 75000 square feet we're gonna -- over 300 -- jobs in the prophesy.
And we believe it or redefine the experience in Las Vegas and set a new benchmark which will hopefully increase investment for market from -- from -- that there are purchase.
So with the employment picture here employment -- very high leads the nation and do you think that Clark County is up for grabs in this election or do you think that it's pretty solidly already decided.
Well I think that is definitely -- for grabs I think that you know this market.
Really we can tell from the visitation that we -- from the candidates that it is it is a big deal to win Clark County so I think is very much 5050 hit us -- opinion seems -- side.
But when you talk about the nightclubs what is there a percentage has anyone done a a metric on how many people employed simply by the nightclub and restaurant industry.
I'm sure they'll be CIA have the actual facts and in -- -- -- -- you know I've fixed several thousand people for example our company.
Employs over 2000 people there in this market and we've.
Grow not from a team of sixteen people over the past that is.
But wasn't that move then the restaurant and nightclub industry did to get through the recession is another the casinos and hotels at a very difficult time of it.
I think that what happened was with the loan -- the -- writes it made it made it very accessible to that to a different audience to come here and I think people kind.
And realized that this market was really an excellent markets and confidence why -- -- she said.
I had attended the highest grossing markets in the world here so wanna come here for four -- this balance and experience the -- You'll muffin on the which on the spot other you don't have to answer it any predictions will be President Obama reelected.
Or will it be Mitt Romney is as far as the voters and -- -- concerned.
I would not say news stay neutral to compliment on the spot and I think it's a 5050 coal and other than who's gonna win -- no idea.
-- thank you very much CEO of Angel management group here in Las Vegas we're going to be broadcasting live throughout today we're actually gonna talk about Las Vegas real estate.
Not leading the then nation in foreclosures but still a real problem the housing market -- and we'll speak to people about whether that's gonna play into the election is well.
That's you come under Reagan taught our swing state -- tour continues and Adam Shapiro in Las Vegas, Nevada thank.

Royal shopping
For Her Majesty's pleasure...
When shopping In England, a Royal warrant signifies a benchmark of true craft and high quality. Royal warrants have been issued for centuries to those who supply goods or services to a royal court. For the shopper it simply means if it's good enough for the Queen, surely it must be good enough for you. Here are ten of the best royal approved brands.
1. Norfolk Lavender
The lavender that grows from England's premier lavender farm is harvested with a specially designed machine, and the oil is then distilled using copper stills that were built in 1874. No wonder then that the company's soaps, lotions and potions smell so wonderfully fresh and have had a Royal warrant since 1936.
2. Royal Doulton
Since a warrant was issued back in 1901 Royal Doulton has become synonymous as the finest of all of Britain's fine China. Today its porcelain, dinnerware, giftware, cookware, glassware and collectables still stand as a byword for quality, and the Queen would never dream to drink her Earl Grey from anything else.
3. Asprey
For almost 200 years Asprey has been associated with a special class of luxury, from everything from bespoke jewellery to ornate luggage. This is a brand that deals in only the finest of materials and design. Isn't it about time you made your shopping in England truly memorable?
4. Donald Russell
It is widely believed the meat provided by Donald Russell is amongst the most tender and delicious you can find in the UK. This is probably due to the fact that the online butcher specialises in grass-fed, traditionally matured beef and lamb, reared by farmers who care about their animals.
5. Burberry
It says a lot about Burberry that for a firm that was founded back in 1852, it is still famous for its quality, innovation and style. And all this in the especially fickle world of fashion. As they say fashion fades, style is eternal. And a gift of Burberry handbag can still save a marriage.
6. Roberts Radio
The Royal family has purchased Roberts Radios since 1939. Their radios have become design classics with the latest technology housed in sleek, simple and functional cases. Mind you they are not about to rest on their laurels having only recently launched the world's first solar powered digital radio.
7. Penhaligon's
The famous London perfume house was founded in 1867 and over the last 150 years has supplied the world with some of the most famous scents including Hammam Bouquet, Blenheim Bouquet, English Fern and Lords. Not that it's all about the past though, or why else would it be Kate Moss' fragrance of choice?
8. Bollinger
Bollinger became the official supplier of champagne to the British court, receiving a Royal Warrant in 1884 from Queen Victoria followed in 1950 by King George VI and the Queen Mother. It's also James Bond's bubbly of choice, and anyone, anywhere who has a special occasion to celebrate.
9. Hamleys
It was Queen Mary who, having played with Hamleys toys as a small child, awarded the shop once known as the "Joy Emporium" a Royal warrant in 1938. The toy shop's famous Regent Street location has been a London attraction since the early 1830s, and to this day serves as quite possibly the best experience any child (or child at heart) can have.
10. Barbour
For those that have been converts to J. Barbour & Sons Ltd enduring, high quality waterproof and outdoor wear their new found fashion renaissance is no mystery. In addition to its iconic waxed and quilted jackets, the company's sweaters, moleskin clothing and tattersall shirts have elevated pure function to high fashion.
You might also like...
Psst... Handy Hints
If you want a Royal warrant tipple, try Martini Vermouth, wines from Corney and Barrow, champagne from Bollinger or GH Mumm et Cie or a Strongbow cider.
Department stores John Lewis, Waitrose and Selfridges all carry Royal warrants for the supply of various goods and services.
If you have some cash to splash, why not fork out for a classic Bentley or Aston Martin , both car manufacturers that have Royal warrants? Prince Charles drives a DB6 Aston Martin that runs on biofuel.
Saville Row
For high end tailoring and perhaps more Royal warrants than any other street In England, head to London's Saville Row.
