- Is News Corp heading for a future without the Murdochs?
- Bid boosts Carey's prospects as Murdoch sons jockey for position
- Rupert Murdoch's $US80b Time Warner bid spurned
21st Century Fox's attempt to take over the US film and TV giant Time Warner has all the hallmarks of Rupert Murdoch's approach to expansion in the second half of his extraordinary career.
There's the vaulting ambition to expand, but within the portfolio of traditional media assets he built up in the 20th century; the patient pursuit of the quarry that in past cases including the $US5 billion acquisition of Dow Jones and The Wall Street Journal in 2007 results in a ''bear hug'' that the target and its shareholders cannot resist; and the use of non-voting shares as takeover currency, to preserve the Murdoch family's control of the massive media group that would be created if 21st Century Fox and Time Warner are merged.
21st Century Fox contacted Time Warner last month, and offered to pay cash and non-voting shares that valued Time Warner at $US85 a share or $US80 billion ($85 billion), with the non-voting shares accounting for 60 per cent of the consideration.
The offer was about 25 per cent above Time Warner's share price at the time, but Time Warner's board explained they had rejected it because the company's own expansion plans offered more value, because the ''unique value'' of Time Warner's assets would only rise over time, because the value of 21st Century Fox's non-voting shares was uncertain, and because there were significant risks in mashing the two giant media groups together, including the risk that competition regulators would block all or part of the marriage.
21st Century Fox confirmed the approach and said the two groups were ''not currently in any discussions,'' but it's highly unlikely that Rupert Murdoch will leave the matter there. Both groups have retained takeover advisers, a sign that they believe that the game is alive.
The odds are that 21st Century Fox will attempt to re-engage, and if it continues to be unsuccessful, take its takeover campaign public.
Ahead of the last year's break up of News Corp that created 21st Century Fox as a stand-alone film and TV owner and left News Corp focused on print media, News and Murdoch did much the same thing when they stalked Dow Jones and The Wall Street Journal. Time Warner and 21st Century Fox have many common shareholders, and that would assist the campaign.
Time Warner for its part knows that other big media groups will now will be doing their takeover sums. As its board noted, Time Warner owns famous media brands and businesses that are likely to increase over time. That's an incentive for others to move now that Murdoch has put the company into play.
Time Warner almost blew itself up in 2000 when it agreed to a $US164 billion reverse takeover by the AOL internet group, but it hived AOL off in 2009 and offloaded its old print media assets including Time magazine, Sports Illustrated and Fortune magazine by another spin-out last month.
That left it with a stable of film and tv assets that Murdoch covets, including Warner Bros, HBO, Cartoon Network, Turner Broadcasting and New Line Cinema and, a more problematic asset, the CNN cable news service, which was once dominant but now badly trails 21st Century Fox's Fox News cable empire.
The takeover would bring together Time Warner's businesses with a similar stable inside 21st Century Fox, including Fox TV, Fox Film and the partly-owned European and UK pay TV platforms that Murdoch also wants to own completely. Rationalisation opportunities would be thrown up, and 21st Century Fox is prepared to sell off the CNN cable news business to get regulatory approval.
The takeover approach is being described as Murdoch's most ambitious move, and there is no doubt that it is classic Murdoch for the sweep of its ambition.
Murdoch arguably took bigger risks in the 20th century, however, with his debt-funded takeovers of Twentieth Century Fox in the first half of the 1980s, and his expansion into the US television market in 1986 with his acquisition of TV station operator Metromedia.
Those takeovers were a diversification from the newspaper business that Murdoch had built up in Australia and then the UK and the US, and Murdoch brilliantly leveraged and cross-fertilised the new businesses to build a TV and film production and distribution colossus.
The acquisition of Time Warner would be less risky, as long as the takeover price was right. It would expand 21st Century Fox's existing footprint rather than create a new one. The big gains would come from economies of scale rather than the construction of entirely new business models, as had occurred after the Fox and Metromedia acquisitions.

Dave Taylor's records combine 4/4 drums with breaks, fills, chopped-up vocals, uber-modern bass lines and lots and lots of glitches
I've never been a fan of house music. I'm a self-confessed musical snob, and records designed for the most part to move the feet and not the mind have always found themselves firmly on my blacklist. However, I can't help noticing that, away from the glare of the mainstream media's attention on the renaissance in rock music, giant steps are being made in my least favourite genre.
Parisian label Ed Banger Records is one of the parties responsible. It is set up by Daft Punk's management, and that French duo, who reinvented house in the 90s, have had a noticeable influence on everyone on the roster, even if they don't all fit easily into the house bracket. DJ Mehdi's brand of evolved hip-hop and grime-informed club music resulted in a fine album last year, while Justice's collaboration with Simian Mobile Disco took the electro-house/punk-funk scene to the masses (ie outside of the London hipster circuit and into regional shirts 'n' shoes clubs) by injecting a heavy dose of fun into the song We Are Your Friends.
I can't bring myself to listen to more than eight bars of an Uffie record without wanting to chew my own hands off - vacuous, hipper-than-thou nonsense, surely? - but her more electro-based production from Parisian one-to-watch DJ Feadz has an exhilarating newness about it, again probably routed in its having been infused with a hip-hop sensibility.
And therein lies the rub, I think. Breaking up the formulaic 4/4 drums with the odd breakbeat or the clever use of a glitch here and there has made house music interesting again. In the UK, Dave Taylor aka Switch is the man who's made the most progress. A prolific producer, he has had a strong hand in M.I.A's career and remixed and released records under the monikers Solid Groove, Switch and A Brucker and Sinden. Taylor's records combine 4/4 drums with breaks, fills, chopped-up vocals, uber-modern bass lines and lots and lots of glitches. When he remixed Spank Rock for our label, the mastering engineer was shocked to see a waveform that completely filled every frequency band as he loaded it up.
Taylor and the Ed Banger artists have a lot in common, as they do with the Baltimore house acts that basically make good hip-house (not an oxymoron, it seems) with filthy, gangsta refrains and minimal house drums. Given this internationally connected vibrancy in house music, I suppose I'll have to open my mind up a bit. The fact that even a bad DJ like me can mix the records helps - as does the notion that hip-hop made house good again.

Have Relationship Questions? Ask a Counselor for Answers ASAP
Thank you for your question.
People some times see their grandchildren everyday it depends on how involved the grandparents are in the grandchildren's life.
Some times people tell their close friends things but not all of their friends.
She seems like she likes to fill you in on her life because she likes sharing things with you.
She also did not mention her knee because I think she did not want anyone to worry about her.
She sent pictures all month and e-mails so she is constantly in contact so I feel that you are very close friends.
People do not share everything and when someone shares a lot of their life they consider that person a true friend that they trust and care about.
It sounds like she does not answer all her e-mails because she is so busy. I do not feel like she wants you out of the picture I feel that she wants to be friends and you are important too her.
When people do not want to be friends they just do not respond. They do not e-mail, write, text, message, call. They just move on from the friendship.
This is not happening her she is sharing her life with you.

Many breathed a sign of relief last year when the Legislature considered S-21 and A-3868, the Pension Deferral Legislation. It was sponsored by Senate President Codey and sponsored in the Assembly by Speaker Roberts. The legislation was to permit municipalities and counties to reduce their 2009 public pension liabilities as a means to temporarily lower property tax payments and defer the required contributions to later years.
Under prior legislation, found in Chapter 108 Public Laws of 2003, there was a five year phase in program with increments of 20 percent each year and 2009 was to be the year pensions obligations were to be paid 100 percent. Not only were pension obligations to be paid at 100 percent but there was no longer a cap exception granted for the local budget. A great deal of media has been published about the requirements to fund pension obligations. These obligations include both the normal employer cost and funding of accrued liabilities (which had increased significantly because of the holidays granted in prior years and the delay phased payment process). No one could deny that public employers all across the nation are under a great deal of stress as they labor to meet and fund retirement obligations.
The purpose of this article is to specifically look at a factor which is linked with the overall pension obligations and suggest local officials pay particular attention to the methodology used by the various Boards of Trustees when determining the normal and accrued liability cost associated with pension obligations.
In March 2009 the firm of Buck Consultants, serving as actuary to the Public Employees Retirement System (PERS), prepared their 54th Annual Valuation of the assets and liabilities. The Valuation was to show the financial condition of the System as of July 1, 2008 and provide the basis for determining the appropriation payable by employers for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2009. It is this Valuation which will determine the bills local governments must pay as of April 1, 2010. The Valuation report as produced did not take into account the broad decline in the U.S. financial industry as a result of lost equities, bond price decline and the collapse of real estate, in both commercial and residential markets. Subsequent to the March issuance of the report the Board of Trustees for PERS adopted the report as submitted. It will be used by the Division of Pensions to produce the statements for payments by municipalities due in 2010.
My review of the report raised a real question how is investment income or losses to be apportioned between the State of New Jersey and "other than state" locals which are part of PERS? This is particularly important for next year as the past Valuation did not take into account the decline in U.S. equities, bonds and real estate holdings. To place this into some organized fashion the following table compares the income earnings or loss and said distribution between the state and local PERS.
Income Distribution
Valuation State Percent Local Percent Total
2006 $857,109,556 38.8% $1,348,209,731 61.2% $2,205,319,287
2007 $865,562,399 38.7% $1,373,521,019 61.3% $2,239,084,418
2008 $(68,484,123) 17.5% $(323,224,565) 82.5% $(391,708.688)
As the above table shows, during two years the distribution of investment earnings on pension assets was distributed 38.8 percent to the state and 61.2 percent to local governments. In the most recent Valuation where investment income was reported as a loss of $391,708,688 the distribution was 17.5 percent for the state and 82.5 percent for local governments. The obviously question is: why, in good times, did the state receive 38 percent of the earnings and when there was a downturn in the economy only receive 17.5 percent of the loss? Maybe the answer is found in the active membership. The contributions are based upon active membership compensation for both state and local PERS. The following table is a comparison of active membership during the same period as reported for investment earnings or loss.
Number of PERS Active Membership
Year State Percent Local Percent Total
2006 96,469 30% 221,271 70% 317,740
2007 95,750 30% 223,503 70% 319,253
2008 95,331 29.8% 223,851 70.2% 319,182
As reported by the Valuation, the state represents 30 percent of the total PERS membership. One would assume the salaries paid by the state are comparable to those paid by local governments. Therefore system funding would be similar based upon the reported membership. If membership were the criteria then investment earnings or losses would be divided on a 30/70 basis. If this was the case, local governments have under received during the good years and are being over charged with the loss during the most recent valuation.
We recognize completing a thorough Actuarial Valuation of a system is more complicated than simply looking at the ratio of memberships to investment earnings. A major portion of Valuation is the contributory rate paid by the members and when these payments are made. The following table summarizes the ratio at which the state and local Governments have contributed based upon the Statement of Obligations issued by the Division of Pensions.
Contribution Rate
Year State Local
2006 44.8% 80%
2007 10.2% 100%*
2008 2.3% 100%
*Pension Deferral legislation permitted some to pay only 50 percent
The state continues to contribute less and less of their normal employers costs and funding of accrued liabilities. In fact, for the forthcoming fiscal year they do not even budget sufficient amount to cover the assumed interest earnings (8½ percent). Parallel with the process, local governments have contributed the full amount billed by the Division of Pensions. This table seems to further cloud the issue and compound the question. If local governments are contributing at a higher ratio and making payments in a more timely manner than the state then how does one explain why the state receives a higher distribution of the investment incomes and a lower distribution of the investment loss?

If you want to hide the whole date+time string, then there's a very easy way, in your theme's styles.css file:
/* hide datestamp from comments */
The drawback is that it also removes the direct comment hyperlink.
Here's the code to just remove the time from your comments while keeping the date and the hyperlink. This code goes in your theme's functions.php file. If you've never edited that file before, then please be very careful - take a backup of the file first, and make sure you know how to FTP into your server so that you can restore that backup in case something goes screwy (one tiny error can bring down your whole site) - apologies for all the warnings if you're an old pro at it! If you're not, I did more of a step-by-step here: http://www.studiopress.com/forums/topic/agency-remove-you-are-here-from-breadcrum/#post-39754 If ou have questions, just ask!
And to the real Genesis experts: If there's an easier way to do this please let me know! I could not find a filter for the comment date/time thing.

Johnson WDs from HP Byron Nelson
By Brian Wacker, PGATOUR.COM
Dustin Johnson withdrew from the HP Byron Nelson Championship on Tuesday, citing a bad back.
It marks the third straight week Johnson has missed because of injury.
Johnson withdrew from the Wells Fargo Championship because of inflammation in his left wrist. After an opening-round 74 at last week's PLAYERS Championship, Johnson withdrew, citing an injury to his lower back.
Tuesday, Johnson said via his Twitter account, "Tried to go but have inflammation in my facet joints. Some rest and daily therapy with my physical therapist, then I should be good!!"
Johnson opened the year with a victory in Maui. He pulled out of the following week's event on Oahu after the first round with the flu. He had recorded three straight top-15 finishes before pulling out at Quail Hollow.
Earlier Tuesday, Bob Estes also withdrew from the HP Byron Nelson Championship.

* With relatively light fundraising by even the frontrunners, outside groups were bound to descend on the 2nd CD special primary. It has begun. New York's billionaire Mayor Michael Bloomberg is jumping into the race via his SuperPAC.
From a press release…
Ads to focus on Halvorson's Congressional and Illinois Statehouse record of voting to allow criminals to carry loaded, hidden guns; permitting guns in national parks; and opposing bans on large-capacity magazines
(FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE): As the race for Chicago's 2nd Congressional District enters it final month, Michael R. Bloomberg's Independence USA PAC today announced a significant TV ad campaign around educating Chicago voters about former Rep. Debbie Halvorson's abysmal gun safety record.
Armed with an "A" rating from the National Rifle Association – a grade that is unlikely to continue now that she's come against President Obama's proposed Assault Weapons Ban — Halvorson went as far outside the mainstream in her congressional career as to vote for the National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity Act of 2009, a bill that would allow criminals to carry loaded, hidden guns in Chicago.
"Throughout her years in Washington and Springfield, Debbie Halvorson's record on gun safety has been entirely devoid of any semblance of the kind of common-sense reforms that will keep Americans safer from the scourge of gun violence," said Stefan Friedman, spokesman for Independence USA PAC.
Many of the other candidates in the crowded field to take the seat held by Jesse Jackson, Jr. have come out on behalf of reasonable measures that would help keep illegal guns out of the hands of criminals and make Americans safer.
The ad is linked here or available on request. A script of the ad is below.
"In the race to replace Jessie Jackson, watch out for Debbie Halvorson. When she was in congress before, Halvorson got an A from the NRA.
The NRA: against comprehensive background checks, against banning deadly assault weapons, against banning high capacity ammunition clips.
Halvorson even co-sponsored a bill that would allow some criminals to carry loaded, hidden guns into Chicago.
Debbie Halvorson: when it comes to preventing gun violence, she gets an F.
Independence USA PAC is responsible for the content of this advertising."
* Watch the ad…
Rate it.
* The PAC spent a ton of money last year.

The fact that they say she voted "to allow some criminals to carry loaded guns across state lines" is incredible. Hey….they are criminals. They don't need laws! Good Grief!
Comment by Sunshine Tuesday, Jan 29, 13 @ 4:49 pm
Few people like "any" super Pac weighing in with an expensive opinion on a candidate. The irony is that this may be a real "plus" for Debbie. If the gun issue was a "make or break" moment for Debbie, than she probably wasn't going to make it to the finish line first anyway. Toi will prove to be Debbie's huckleberry. Halvorsen has been out of the spotlight for too long. The spotlight has been shining on her talented understudy Toi for enough time that the audience no longer misses the star but instead has come to appreciate her talented understudy.
Comment by Muffin Man Tuesday, Jan 29, 13 @ 4:59 pm
Just, that would be about $25 billion when it comes to Michael Bloomberg. He's out of a job soon and looking to keep busy.
I don't think the $7.5 million the NRA spent in the 2012 election cycle on the federal level (about $4 million anti-Obama/pro-Romney) is going to cut it if this guy goes all in.
The ad itself is pretty strong red meat — came out pretty fast, too. I thought the dude standing with his back to the camera was a little weird, but other than that, it will resonate with those inclined to more gun restrictions.

Comment by Responsa Tuesday, Jan 29, 13 @ 5:10 pm
Also, I see they use "replace Jesse Jackson" rather than "replace Jesse Jackson Jr. (And no picture.) Interesting. That suggests to me that the ad's creators are either unaware of who was actually the failed congressman or, more likely, that the ad's intended to be used elsewhere than just Il (for fundraising) where they hope people won't know the difference between the 2 Jacksons.

Question, not opinion.
Didn't the Peotone airport leave the building with JJJ?
Comment by Arthur Andersen Tuesday, Jan 29, 13 @ 7:22 pm
AA, let's hope so.
The state has already spent $30 million buying 2,300 acres for it, and estimates it would take another $70 to acquire the land for the rest of the footprint.
Here's hoping the powers-that-be take the opportunity to end this boondoggle and environmental disaster and sell when Illinois farmland is sky high.

"…or, more likely, that the ad's intended to be used elsewhere than just Il (for fundraising) where they hope people won't know the difference between the 2 Jacksons."
Michael Bloomberg is a billionaire. He doesn't raise money. He spends his own.
There is a much less complicated explanation: word economy.
Comment by Bill F. Tuesday, Jan 29, 13 @ 7:41 pm
in the fall cycle the NRA did very poorly with their finance sponsored picks and Bloomberg did very well with the few he financed. the Bloomberg effort is quite knowledgeable.
Comment by Amalia Tuesday, Jan 29, 13 @ 7:48 pm
Bill D–What does "the economy" have to do with them deciding to use Jessie Jackson instead of JJJ's name in the commercial?
Comment by Responsa Tuesday, Jan 29, 13 @ 7:52 pm
He said word economy. He means adding "junior" makes it longer and there are right tight time limits for tv spots.
Comment by Knifefighter Tuesday, Jan 29, 13 @ 7:55 pm
@ Arthur - JJ, Jr. may have left the building, but I haven't heard any Illinois leaders change their position regarding Peotone.
Halvorson was for it, as was Quinn & Hutchinson.
The gun issue has been around (along with the shootings, whether in schools or from towers) for decades.
I have never heard Kelly speak about Peotone. If the tragic shootings in CT had not occurred recently, I wonder which issue Kelly would have come up with when she brought her finger out of the wind.
Comment by Kasich Walker, Jr Tuesday, Jan 29, 13 @ 8:59 pm
I have some avice for Bloomberg…crawl back under the rock you came from in NY we don't need your advice in Illinois
Comment by concern1 Wednesday, Jan 30, 13 @ 7:52 am
NRA should not be the issue. Should be whether Chicago or Illinois controls our district. Yes, except for the geography of #2, Chicago & Illinois are separate places.

People have been practicing yoga for more than 5,000 years. Nearly 11 million people in the U.S. alone have caught yoga fever and are regular practitioners. This makes yoga more of a lifestyle than a trend. Women in particular enjoy this type of exercise because it does not require them to be in a workout room alongside sweaty, beefed up men that cannot form complete sentences. In all seriousness, though, yoga benefits the female body in many ways.
Yoga classes in the Western world usually involve breathing and meditation techniques paired with physical poses called asanas. There are different styles of yoga, some of which focus on relaxation and others designed to work muscles and enhance body movement. Practitioners develop balance, strength, and flexibility. The health benefits from these are numerous and worth exploring in more detail.
Women who are older often worry that they are not fit enough to practice yoga. They think of stretching like a gymnast and believe they are unable to do it. In reality, it is never too late to improve flexibility.
Asanas safely stretch the muscles, releasing the buildup of lactic acid that causes fatigue, pain, tension, and stiffness. Muscle stretching can also increase the lubrication within the joints. The result is that the entire body feels fluid and at ease.
In addition to the muscles, yoga stretches the soft tissues within the body. This includes tendons, ligaments, and the sheath of fascia that surrounds the muscles. After just eight weeks of practice, participants can experience an up to 35 percent improvement in their flexibility. These benefits are mostly seen in the trunk and shoulders. Flexibility benefits can be experienced no matter what level of experience the woman has with performing yoga.
Power yoga and ashtanga are two of the more vigorous styles of yoga. Practicing these helps to improve muscle tone but even the less vigorous forms like lyengar yoga can benefit practitioners in terms of endurance and strength. Upper body strength is developed through poses like plank, upward dog, and downward dog. Standing poses build abdominal, quad, and hamstring strength. Chair and upward dog strengthen the lower back. Muscles deep in the abdomen benefit from nearly all yoga poses.
When strength and flexibility are improved, so is posture. A stronger core enables a person to sit and stand taller.
When practicing yoga, women are more aware of their bodies. This allows them to quickly identify when they are not exhibiting ideal posture so they can correct it. During a workout, instructors inform participants when a pose is not being executed correctly. By properly exhibiting a pose, the practitioner receives the most benefit from the move.
Other benefits from practicing yoga include improved lung capacity due to deep, focused breathing and an increased level of calmness. Biochemical responses lower stress levels and allow practitioners to feel relaxed. The heart rate is slowed and blood pressure is lowered, resulting in benefits to the heart. Yoga students also claim to experience improved mental focus and elevated mood.

Wedding Ring or Laptop? [POLL]
A survey CNBC from by Intel found that people would rather lose their wedding ring than their laptop or cell phone.
Three out of four people said that losing their electronic device would be more stressful than misplacing their wedding ring. The only object that people said would be MORE stressful to lose was their wallet.
I See A Lot Of Broken Laptops In Idaho's Future
If I was a smart man, and I emphasize the word "if," I would open a laptop repair center next to every major school in Idaho. Why? Because there's about to be a lot of broken laptops in Idaho's future.
What Did You Do For Easter? I Dissected Two Laptops
It started Saturday while cleaning out the shed: I found my two old Apple iBooks, dead, but still resting comfortably in their cases. My 12" iBook suffered a motherboard failure five years earlier, and the iBook G4 14" lost its mind when the hard drive crashed. At the time it was too expensive to get either repaired as both had gone out of warranty, so they were banished to the shed.
Then it hit me: why couldn't I use both iBooks to create one, working laptop?
A Computer Nerd Gets Revenge On a Laptop Thief

Mark remembered he'd set up his computer to back itself up online. And he could remotely access those backups. So he was actually able to log in and see what the thief had been doing with his computer.

It's gone from part of the conversation, to the biggest part, to the only part, all in barely 24 hours. "Randy Moss had one of the great careers in the history of his sport,'' we've all said, "but how great could he have been had he really tried?''
We'll all keep looking for answers, but we'll never get one, because it's impossible to know. So Moss, if he stays retired, takes his place in one of the most exclusive and illustrious clubs in sports.
This group did things that may never be duplicated by anyone under any circumstances -- but will be remembered just as much for what they didn't do, or what the world believed they should have been able to do if they had wrung every molecule out of their unsurpassed ability.
It's the group that Shaquille O'Neal joined just two months ago. It's the one that Mickey Mantle has ruled for half a century, when people take time to think about it.
And it's the one Babe Ruth pretty much founded.
Even when Moss gets to the Hall of Fame, he won't be in better company.
It's hilarious, actually, to hear the either-or debates about Moss's legacy. Will he be remembered as one of the two or three most unstoppable forces the NFL has ever seen at any position, much less wide receiver -- or as the bottomless well of aggravating soundbites, like "I play when I wanna play,'' and "Straight cash, homey,'' of patterns cut short and plays taken off and early departures from sidelines?
Both. It's what he was in full: the outrageous talent who even at half-speed was twice the speed of everybody else on the field or the court - but also the tease who had even more than 954 catches, more than 14,858 yards and 153 touchdowns buried in that once-in-a-lifetime skill set, waiting to be unleashed with just a teensy bit more effort and dedication.
It was too much to behold at times. It also wasn't enough. There were records and memories by which all others are and will be measured. But there should've been more.
Is it fair to treat him that way? Not really. But it's human nature. And after a century or so of experiencing it with the greatest of our sports legends, we should all understand it by now.
So Shaq crushes the NBA underfoot like a real-life Godzilla, and we celebrate his retirement by saying that being fifth all-time in scoring, winning four championships and being one of the handful of best centers ever was a real letdown.
Serena Williams changes everything we ever previously perceived about women's tennis, wins 13 Grand Slams while losing two other finals to her big sister, and her reward is to constantly hear about how much better she'd be if she'd concentrated more on her game and less on her outside pursuits.
But this isn't new.
No era in sports has been without its "Yeah, but ..." stars -- and if Mantle's legacy can withstand the shortfall between what was and what might have been, anybody's can. Yes, he left a generation of boys starry-eyed for life, but he left an older generation somewhere between perplexed and enraged. Not the least was Mantle himself; he was the one who famously said (in some version or another), "If I'd known I was gonna live this long, I would've taken better care of myself.''
He did live long – he was 63 when he died in 1995. He didn't take care of himself. The headlines about the late-night partying and the nightclub brawling often matched the ones about his home runs. There was plenty of talk, when he retired, about how sad it was that he'd "only" hit 536 home runs, when he seemed for so long like a serious threat to Ruth's 714.
Which brings us back to the Babe. Those who aren't engulfed by the legend and hero worship are acutely aware of how all the talk in the last decade about who the "true" home run champion is would be moot had Ruth been a little more diligent during his career.
Forget the years he pitched -- the years he was so careless about his eating, drinking and socializing were the keys. Those 714 homers could have been well beyond 800.
It's inconceivable that Ruth could have left even more of an impact on baseball, sports and culture than he actually did. In fact, his image as a big, playful man-child can hardly be separated from his image as an athlete. But back then, nobody ever deluded himself that Ruth left everything he had on the field – and nobody today should be deluded, either.
The Babe Ruth we were left with, then, was good enough. Same for the Mantle. It's hard to complain about the Shaq and Serena we're left with.
In time, the Moss we had, from the catches to the fake-mooning, will be good enough, too.

AVW-TELAV Audio Visual Solutions, an acclaimed full-service audio visual rental resources company, took home the gold prize for 'Professional Services of the Year' at the 20th annual Ottawa Business Achievement Awards (OBAAs).
February 11, 2013 (Newswire.com) - AVW-TELAV Audio Visual Solutions received the golden recipient title of 'Professional Services of the Year' at the Ottawa Business Achievement Awards (OBAAs).

Is Mickey Rourke the hottest actor in Hollywood? Last night word leaked that the Oscar-buzzed star of "The Wrestler" was set to rejoin his old friend Sylvester Stallone and a slew of action heroes in the new thriller "Expendables." Now, according to The Hollywood Reporter, Rourke is in talks to play a villain in "Iron Man 2."
Marvel Studios is trying to keep things quiet, but the current incarnation of the screenplay, being written by Justin Theroux, would find Rourke playing a Russian heavy named Ivan who becomes Whiplash, a killer with a deadly and powerful steel coil. In his original comic-book incarnation (where he"s also known as Backlash), Whiplash"s coil was in the form of a whip, it"s unclear how it would appear in the sequel.
Joining Rourke as a newcomer to the cast is Sam Rockwell. The veteran indie actor is on board to play Justin Hammer, a billionaire rival of Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.).
Late last year Marvel announced Don Cheadle would be replacing Terrence Howard in the role of Col. James 'Rhodney" Rhodes, a.k.a. War Machine. Gwyenth Paltrow is set to return as Stark"s assistant, Pepper Potts.
The trader reports one last role, for what appears to be a second Stark assistant, Natasha (or would that be the Black Widow?), has not yet been cast.
Downey, Jr."s dramatic comeback from substance abuse pinnacled with the release of "Iron Man" last year. There is some irony that another comeback kid, Rourke, came on board the sequel to play his adversary.
Production is expected to begin this spring in Manhattan Beach. Paramount Pictures will distribute the Marvel Studios production on May 7, 2010.

I cringe every time I read something about Hunters being a DPS class or Titans being a tank. Y'all are ridiculous!!! I laugh every time I read someone's post saying they picked this or that class for the DPS! Or that they're gonna "roll" this or that class first! Well. I laugh. And then it really annoys me. Yes, Destiny has "raids". Yes, I know you played WOW and/or are familiar with RPG or MMO lingo. Good for you. Hardly any of it applies to Destiny - at all!!! This game is a shooter, first and foremost. For the vast majority of the time, your damage will be from your guns. We all use the same guns. No class has a magical bonus to bullet damage. All of our supers do a lot of damage, each with strengths in different situations. Differences in supers do not merit lumping a class into a traditional MMORPG role! Yes, Defender and Sunsinger admittedly have a good super for support and they'll certainly be helpful for team play, but you'll never be able to spam cast the damn things. Yes, titans start with more armor, but it's negligible when it comes to actual firefights. Do you honestly think a Titan will ever be able to sit and tank?! No. I dunno. I just think it's silly and a waste of time to try and discuss this game in traditional MMORPG terms. Oh, and annoying. Rant over.
hmmm i see where you are going.... after alot of thought ...and thanks to your post i think i will roll a dps class
What is a DPS? A tank from what I know is a devil in a strick to kill. I class this game as a role playing game. Just because you ware a gun dose not stop a game being a role playing game.
The Titan is for punching! The Warlock is for mid-range aoe/survival. The Hunter is for long range/sneaking. Which do you prefer?
I mostly agree with you, however the stats of each class do make a significant difference. For example, the titan has higher armour and it is NOT negligible. In PvP I played mostly as a hunter, and I would say almost all my deaths in 1v1 situations were at the hands of titans simply because of their superior armour. Warlocks and Hunters never stand much chance against me in those scenarios. However, if I face a good Titan, they can beat me even if I land all perfect headshots.
Agree.. Very good.
Titans dont start with more armor. All classes start out with the same amount of armor.
"They're all the same!" *proceeds to list out a sampling of the differences between classes* I giggled a little bit.
Good Rant! It needed to be Said! 'Hope your feeling better... -FingerLickr
Dps is damage per second. A dps class focuses on raw damage, nothong else. It can't do anything else. From what we know of the sub classes hunter is a dps class, no matter what sub class your in the only thing you do is damage and lots of it. Titans as tanks fits perfectly with the generalised term for a tank. A high armour, high health character who's job is to get on the enemy's face. Yes there is no aggro table like mmorpgs have but assuming everything is equal on 3 guardians and a boss fires a homing projectile that has to hit a party member which do you choose? The warlock that will likely die outright, the hunter who is going to be critically wounded that they have to hide so not doing any damage or the tanky high armour titan than takes maybe 1/2 or 2/3 of their health? There are no healing sub class, that we know of and even if there was it wouldnt be mmorpg healer, its more like support sub class. While some mmorpg terms aren't applicable most are you just have to understand what people mean by them.
Yes there is. 3 of them in fact.
You should read this list & add to it. http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/66935192/0/0
You bring up quite afew good points this being one of them: [quote] All of our supers do a lot of damage, each with strengths in different situations. Differences in supers do not merit lumping a class into a traditional MMORPG role! Yes, Defender and Sunsinger admittedly have a good super for support and they'll certainly be helpful for team play, but you'll never be able to spam cast the damn things. [/quote] We cannot categorize the subclasses by their supers. We can't exactly spam them so they're hardly a factor when defining the class. The Titan has a shield, but it cannot tank. No one can withstand concentrated fire for a long period. Yes there is no DPS class. Everyone deals damage. There is no restriction on weapons for any of the classes. Each person will pick a weapon they are comfortable with. There will be a variety of weapons' stats and elements.
So much speculation when nobody has seen every subclass. So far we know that the warlock can buff teammates creating a support class. We also know that the titan can shield teammates creating a support class. We so far have only seen non supportive build structure from both subclasses for the hunter. Now...3rd subclass speculation... What if_________had a subclass that healed? we don't know everything yet, but right now it looks like the hunter has the least supportive ability.
None of this crap matters. It's all about the loot!

Finally. Someone who understands destiny
Edited by Thrillhouse: 8/13/2014 2:51:59 PMStupid MMO nerds trying to feel special. I want the game to release sooner just so they can realize and STFU. After a month I'm hoping they move on once they understand this isn't WoW.
There all dps classes
Shush!!! I want to see their faces when they find out themselves.
I'm rolling a warlock for my main
...... -COUGH- Sun singer
Actually they're all dps class, but I get it :D.
on the triangle of the three major classes of Warrior, Mage, and Thief, the classes in Destiny lie somewhere far from the extremes. So while they have some traits they are not nearly as pronounced as they are in some other games.
Edited by John Doe: 8/12/2014 10:21:45 PMAll classes are DPS in a sense. Hunters are designed for extremely high single target DPS, Warlocks are for high AoE DPS and zone control, and Titans are for CQC AoE DPS. So while they all are in a sense "DPS" classes, the utility varies. I think when people say "DPS" they really mean [i]single target[/i] DPS, which corresponds to the Hunter class. The only non "DPS"classes will be certain builds of the Defender Titan and Sunsinger Warlock.
So basically you are a moron and are denying the clear ability of the titan defender to absorb damage and the hunter supers to deal damage. Interesting...

Tampa Bay Lightning's Pavel Kubina out with lower-body injury that further stresses the blue line
The hits, and they're not good ones, just keep on coming for the Tampa Bay Lightning defense. Already with Mattias Ohlund, who last week had what coach Guy Boucher called a "big" setback in his recovery from surgeries to both knees, the Lightning lost Pavel Kubina for at least tonight's game with the Senators because of a lower-body injury.
Kubina would not be specific about the injury, which had not been previously revealed, except to say it occurred in the final minutes of Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers. Kubina skated briefly Monday morning with his teammates but left the ice and decided he could not play. He said he is not ruling himself out for Tuesday's game with the Islanders but it is a wait-and-see thing.
"We'll see (Tuesday) and the next couple of days," Kubina said, adding that if the injury did not improve he might go for an MRI exam. But that has not been done yet.
"In his words, speed is not his thing, so if you've got a lower-body injury, it isn't going to help his game," Boucher said. "We want to be smart on this one, so instead of it being 10 days, maybe it will be five days, three days, four days."
Boucher agreed he feels a bit snake bit when it comes to his blue line. Already struggling with consistency, and now without two of his biggest bodies, there is a lot more pressure on the remaining defensemen to step up. Bruno Gervais comes in for Kubina against the Senators. He has played in just six games this season and been a healthy scratch in the past eight.
"Let's not kid ourselves," Boucher said. "We're not in a position as a team to lose defensemen and keep playing and look the same way. The reality is it's something we know we have to improve, so it's tough."
The bottom line, Boucher said, "Some guys want more ice time, now they've got it. It's time to shine for some guys."
Other stuff from the morning skate: Dwayne Roloson gets the start in net. That means unless he is lights-out tonight against the Senators, Mathieu Garon will face the Islanders Tuesday in New York. ... Right wing Adam Hall is scratched for the second straight game. ... Wing Ryan Shannon plays his first game in Ottawa since leaving the team to sign with the Lightning as a free agent. Shannon has one goal and five points in 18 games. He had 11 goals last season for Ottawa. "It's progressing, going forward," Shannon said of his transition to Tampa Bay. "I'm looking for that breakthrough game." Asked if he believes his transition is slower than expected, Shannon said, "I would have liked to come in and score a hat trick, but that hasn't happened yet." ... In hindsight, defenseman Marc-Andre Bergeron said he can see very clearly what he should have done during the third period of the 4-2 loss to the Rangers, simply chip the puck out of the defensive zone. But Bergeron tried to make a play, lost the puck when checked by Ryan Callahan and New York score to tie the score 2-2, the first of its three third-period goals. "Maybe I was a little overconfident, looking for too much," Bergeron said Monday. "I didn't read the situation right. I see the play in the back of my head, and it would have been easy just to tap it out. I obviously know what I did and that's a big part in solving the problem." The problem, Boucher said, is that with Ohlund out, Lightning defensemen have had to play in positions in which they are not comfortable. "I'm very honest with this," Boucher said. "If you put guys in slots that they are not used to managing, it asks to much of some players. Bergeron, since we've got injuries, he's playing against the second lines, against fast, smart, offensive players, second-liners. When have you seen Bergeron play against those guys before? We're asking too much of some guys and it hurts. It hurts him and it hurts the team and I feel feel for him. He had been playing terrific, but when you have to manage the power play and play against second lines against teams like the Rangers and Detroit, it's very difficult for anybody to manage that." With Ohlund and Kubina out, it's not going to get easier.

Dealing with expectation rather than the hilly St Clair Golf Club layout will make or break Wellington's quest to win the women's interprovincial championship this week.
Older, wiser and unbeaten this year, the capital side have been tagged as favourites to lift the national teams' event which tees off in Dunedin today.
It is largely a reflection of how far their two top players, Julianne Alvarez and Te Rongopai Clay, have come in the 12 months since Wellington finished a disappointing fifth at last year's event.
Alvarez, 16, won the Harewood Open on the Charles Tour in October, and was runner-up to Clay for the New Zealand under-19 title.
"That's probably a fair comment," manager Kellie Harrall said yesterday of the favourites' tag. "They've really developed a lot over the past year.
"Julianne is 16 and Te Rongopai, 17, but they've been playing at this level a long time. Body-wise they have been going to the gym, working out and really strengthened up.
"But also mentally they are a lot more experienced. They are seasoned campaigners really."
And it's not just the youngsters who give the Wellington lineup strength.
Lucy Davis, only 22, is playing in her ninth interprovincial, and adds stability at No 4 behind Barbara Parreno, with 21-year-old Alanah Braybrook at No 5.
But, unlike previous Wellington teams, the current crop are taking a different approach mentally, one they hope will end a 20-year title drought. "There will be a lot of people who think we are a team to beat. We've spoken about that as a team," Harrall said.
"We have no expectations to get into the semis. Our only expectation, from my point of view as manager, and from Renee Fowler's point of view as coach, is they focus on every game they play.
"We've worked a lot on how they perform on the course, their attitude about working as a team. If they do that well, the by-product will be winning.
"In past years they've focused on getting to the semis and that might have got in the way of what they had to do in between to get to that point. This year it's day by day, point by point, it's very much a process."
To take some of the pressure off, the players have been told they should celebrate their "phenomenal season" on Saturday, regardless of where they finish.
Wellington's biggest challenger is likely to be an Auckland team missing regular No 1 Cecilia Cho, who has returned to Korea to begin her professional career.
The defending champions lineup features sisters Wenyung and Munchin Keh at No 1 and No 2, respectively, while there are bankable points down the order where former New Zealand amateur champion Larissa Eruera will tactically play at No 5.
Bay of Plenty are also strong, bolstered by the return of No 1 Zoe Brake, while Waikato feature New Zealand representative Sarah Bradley at No 2.
Last year's beaten finalists North Harbour are without Lydia Ko, who will miss the event after being invited to play in a professional tournament in Taiwan.
Wellington's first match is against Manawatu-Whanganui this morning with the tournament concluding on Saturday.

BERKELEY — The host St. Mary's High football team jumped out to a 49-point lead after one quarter and cruised to a 70-0 nonleague win over De Anza on Sept. 28. The Dons (1-3) chose to allow a running clock for the final three quarters.
Lorenzo Logwood rushed for 129 yards and three touchdowns for St. Mary's (3-1). Panthers teammate Tamarick Pierce rushed for 100 yards and a score on just five rushes. On one of those, late in the third quarter, Pierce gave up a sure touchdown by sliding to the ground.
"It never feels good to be on the other end," Pierce said. "But when you get on this end, you want to make sure that you don't do too much, or get out of your game. But it never feels good on the other side. I try to show as much sportsmanship as I can."
The Panthers' defense was dominant, forcing six turnovers and returning three of them — two interceptions and one fumble — for scores in the first quarter. Another interception return for a touchdown was called back on a penalty. De Anza had minus-6 yards of total offense on the day — minus-4 rushing and minus-2 passing.
St. Mary's hosts Berean Christian in its Tri-County Rock Division opener on Oct. 5 at 1:30 p.m.
El Cerrito 49, Valley Christian-Dublin 7: Keilan Benjamin led the Gauchos (3-2) in this game on Sept. 28 by completing 11 of 19 passes for 192 yards and four touchdowns, including two in each of the first two quarters at De Anza.
Keith Benjamin, Keilan's twin brother, hauled in two interceptions to spark the defense, including a 20-yard interception return for a score. Keilan Benjamin connected with Jawian Harrison, Marquis Pippins, Adarius Pickett and Keith Benjamin on his scoring passes. Pickett led all ball carriers with 124 yards on 11 carries. Fullback James Houston had 72 yards on six carries and scored twice. The Gauchos travel to face Salesian on Oct. 5 at 1:30 p.m.
— Joe Wolfcale, correspondent
James Logan 26, Berkeley 7: Ahki Muhammad ran for three touchdowns and scored another on defense as the visiting Colts controlled the clock and field position on Sept. 27. The Yellowjackets (2-3) evened the score at 7-7 early in the second quarter after a 42-yard run by Michael Lazarus set up a 4-yard pass from Gerardo Barron to Travis Dennis. Berkeley has a bye this week.
— Matt Smith Correspondent
Tennyson 34, Albany 15: The visiting Lancers took a 19-0 halftime lead on Sept. 27 over the Cougars (0-5). Albany has a bye this week.

The reason behind this ROM is to get something happening in this forum. I don't have much experience with this kind of stuff but Google has been my friend. Credit for the various parts of this ROM go to the following: -travp624 at RootzWiki for the Inverted G Apps -ShnizlonV for the AOSP ICS installer which helped get the HtcContacts out and the AOSP in by me flashing a bunch of crap on top of other crap and getting lucky ( Couldn't duplicate) -JayDogg and Apache Thunder for their installers during testing and the bases for the initial version) -2fast for the AdvancedPM, the xFuZiiOnZz base and all the work he has done on this phone to get it where it is today -wajeeh at Rootswiki for the sms popup and stock keyboard -Downthemachine for the mms fix -Everyone who said it couldn't be done -and me for trying anyways -Anyone I forgot , PM me and I will include you in the OP *********************************************************************
