iPad Mini rumors are unfounded, analyst says
December 23, 2011 at 3:11 pm
Apparently Apple's plans for a 7-inch iPad in 2012 are bogus.
The Cupertino company was rumored to introduce a mini version of the iPad, sporting a screen size reduction from 9.7″ to 7.85″, before the fourth quarter of next year. According to reports, Apple would buy the 7.85-inch panels from LG Display and AU Optronics.
The release of the down-sized version of the iPad was said to be a response to the competition from devices such as Amazon's 7-inch Kindle Fire tablet.
However, Wedge Partners analyst Brian Blair claims all of this is pure illusion.
"Don't expect a 7-incher. While we believe Apple has tested 7-inch screen prototypes for over a year, we don't currently expect the company to release anything in the 7-inch size in 2012," Blair wrote Friday in a note to clients.
Blair believes Apple will most likely maintain its current iPad 2 on the production line after the launch of an iPad 3. In this way, Apple could reach a lower price point at a mid-tier range
The analyst noted that Steve Jobs was vocal against the 7-inch display, having said in 2010 that they would be "dead on arrival," because their small size would keep them from properly functioning.
"We believe iPad 2′s price drop could drop to the $349 to $399 range with Apple offering a single 16GB model," he said of the model's possible price.
Blair also opined that the third-generation iPad will probably launch at the end of March or beginning of April and it will likely feature 4G compatibility, a retina display, Siri functionality, as well as a 1-megapixel front-facing camera and a 3-to-5-megapixel rear-facing camera.
Brian Blair was one of the few analysts to have correctly anticipated that Apple would skip the iPhone 5, opting for the iPhone 4S with a faster A5 processor and an 8-megapixel camera.

The Top Ten Best Cover Songs of All Time
What Makes a Great Cover Song
For good or bad there have been a lot of cover songs made over the years. While a good, technical rendition of a song from decades past is nice to hear, sometimes you just have to wonder why they even bothered. After all if I wanted to hear that song, I could easily just pop in the digitally remastered, greatest hits CD of the original band. But what separates a great cover from a good cover is when the band doing the remake breaths new life into the song and truly makes it their own. Taking a song that was great in it's own right and making it better is the holy grail of cover bands.
And so, I present my list of the top ten cover songs of all time (in no particular order). All of these feature the original, which for the most part were successful in their day, and a totally unique update.
Bryan Adams Original
MxPx Remake
Summer of 69
What better song for a punk rock anthem than one about a summer filled with oral sex, as pointed out by Bryan Adams during an interview:
BA:...I think 'Summer of '69' - i think it's timeless because it's about making love in the summertime. There is a slight misconception it's about a year, but it's not. '69' has nothing to do about a year, it has to do with a sexual position.
DM: Out of all the people who hear that song, how many do you think realize that as they listen to it?
BA: I don't know. At the end of the song the lyric says that it's me and my baby in a 69. You'd have to be pretty thick in the ears if you couldn't get that lyric.
Everybody deserves a summer of 69, accompanied by a kick ass punk beat.
Frank Sinatra Original
Sid Viscious Remake
My Way
It's probably hard to find two more different images than Frank Sinatra and Sid Vicious, but they both certainly did it their way. Paul Anka originally wrote the song for the "Chairman of the Board" after Sinatra remarked that he was going to retire, which literally never happened. Anka tried to write it in the persona of Sinatra and it was so fitting that it became his signature song.
Meanwhile, Sid Vicious' version was meant as more of a coming out in order to establish his post Sex Pistols career. However, the lyrics are uniquely appropriate for someone who has been described as the attitude of punk rock. They are also oddly appropriate being that Sid's end really was near. His arrest for murder and subsequent death by heroine overdose followed less than a year later.
Anka says that he gave Vicious permission to record the song because he felt that he was sincere about it. Sid literally did it his way because he didn't actually know the words and had to improvise many of the lyrics.
Nine Inch Nails Original
Johnny Cash Remake
Johnny Cash hurt Trent Reznor by stealing his girlfriend when he recorded his cover version of the Nine Inch Nails song:
I pop the video in, and wow… Tears welling, silence, goose-bumps… Wow. I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn't mine anymore… It really made me think about how powerful music is as a medium and art form. I wrote some words and music in my bedroom as a way of staying sane, about a bleak and desperate place I was in, totally isolated and alone. [Somehow] that winds up reinterpreted by a music legend from a radically different era/genre and still retains sincerity and meaning — different, but every bit as pure.
Johnny Cash was from a very different genre, but he wasn't exactly a stranger to drug abuse and depression. It was a very fitting retrospective for a legend who was so close to joining many others from his era in the great hereafter.
Eurythmics Original
Marliyn Manson Remake
Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)
In 1983, a really outlandish looking band with a really odd sounding name had their first hit with a new style of music that was completely different than anything before. They made a crazy, visually exhausting video for the song involving really intense colors and cameos by farm animals, that had everybody talking.Then in 1996, a really outlandish looking band with a really odd sounding name had
their first hit with a new style of music that was completely different
than anything before. They made a crazy, visually exhausting video for the song involving
really intense colors and cameos by farm animals, that had everybody
talking. Somehow, the actual song managed to sound as completely different as the groups looked and acted from each other, in spite of sharing the same lyrics. You could pretty much conclude that the earlier version is from the perspective of the one being used, while the latter represent the user.
Snoop Dogg Original
The Gourds Remake
Gin & Juice
Hip-hop meets Hop-along Cassidy and two great things taste great together:
Kev "Big Daddy" Russell: I just liked that song so much when I first heard it, which was sometime after the fact, probably 1994 or 95. My sister Erin played it for me over the Christmas holidays that year up in Denton,TX where my folks live. I wanted to figger [sic] out a way to play it, just for kicks. I could not rap, thank the Lord, so I had to come up with a melody that would support all those words. It was like learning "Louie, Louie" if Bob Dylan had written it.
One night at the Electric Lounge in Austin I told the guys to follow me on it and we would play it. They had never played it before. I told them it was just A and D chords, very simple, and we did it. Again, the place came unglued. I think we all were a bit disturbed by the reception of this monster song. It gained in popularity around these parts. Of course our record label at the time wanted us to record it, so we did. They went out of business before they could really work it.
It's gotta beat and you square dance to it. Plus, even Snoop Dogg likes it.
Diamondhead Original
Metallica Remake
Am I Evil? (Yes I Am)
Before there was Metallica there was Diamondhead, except with inferior vocals and really bad management. They pretty much created the musical sound that Metallica later became famous for. Then they got tired of playing heavy metal and broke up right as they were about to take off. Since Metallica was about 10 years away from the point where they would get tired of playing heavy metal, they picked up the baton and ran with it all the way to the bank.
It became one of their biggest hits and a staple in their live set list. Also, as stated previously, it became a huge influence on their sound in the following years. How could anyone not like an uplifting, feel-good tune about a mentally deranged killer, who gets pushed over the edge by his mother's death?
Louis Armstrong Original
Joey Ramone Remake
What A Wonderful World
This is one of those odd instance where a song about how great the world is owes a very good amount of its success to all the worst things in the world. Louis Armstrong's original rendition about green grass, blue skies, and friends saying "I love you" was pretty much a flop at the time and earned him a lot of criticism from the jazz community for "selling out" with a song aimed at the pop audience. However, it finally reached that audience when it was included in a scene from Good Morning Vietnam juxtaposed against wartime images of bombs exploding and people being beaten in the streets. Ironically enough, since then it has become the go-to video for anybody making a movie about war, in general, and Vietnam, in particular.
Joey Ramone's version is everything you would expect from a Ramones song, intense, energetic, and defiant. In spite of the fact that it was recorded as he was dying from lymphoma, it's not a mournful eulogy, but an exuberant, celebratory, act of defiance against death. The contrast between the original and the updated version enriches both.
The Turtles Original
New Found Glory Remake
Happy Together
According to Denise Sullivan of allmusic.com, the Turtles wrote this to try and break out of the top 40's mold and be taken more serious:
Striving to break from the vacuous Top 40 mold in which they'd been cast and swept up by the movement toward serious, Beatles/ Beach Boys conceptual pop, the TurtlesZombies-chucked all their pop, folk, psychedelia, and style harmony expertise into one song. As legend has it, a demo of "Happy Together," recorded in a sparse, acoustic guitar and handclap arrangement, was passed on by a number of popular artists of the day only to be unearthed by the Turtles. "Happy Together" has literally bounced through decades of AM-car-radio-play unharmed, perhaps owing to its multi-layers of contradictions: Teetering near the brink of bubblegum, it rises above it; it's a rock & roll song with a martial beat; the vocal is desperate and strident -- convincing the object of affection that the couple will be happy, dammit!; the horns are buried, yet entirely essential. And then there are the flourishes like the sound of a tinkling piano very audible after the line "if I should call you up, invest a dime," mimicking a phone line. Plus, there's an "in-joke" (an added bonus for a good single), when the question "how is the weather?" pops up during the final refrain of "so happy together." Though there were more Turtle hits and Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan, as Flo & Eddie, formed an enduring vocal partnership in the years after their group's egregious breakup, this is a most sublime slice of pop heaven. "Happy Together" was pop perfection and, in fact, was never beat in Turtleland -- it was their first and last number one.
I'm not so sure if recording a real poppy, bubble gum song about teenage love was the best method of doing that. I'm thinking they shoulda done it like New Found Glory's version.
The Mamas and the Papas Original
The Faction Remake
California Dreaming
The original, written by John and Michelle Philips of the Mamas and the Papas (prior to it's formation), is about homesickness and trying to avoid the cold by pretending to pray at a church:
"California Dreamin'" was about longing for another place, and it left a legacy strong enough to cement a place for its performers, the Mamas and the Papas, in the pantheon of popular music history.
"The words 'California dreamin' kept going through my mind," John Phillips recalled in an interview before his death. "I stared working on some chords for the song. And I went through more chord progressions and things that fit the melancholy of the song."
Michelle remembers waking up to John asking for her help. He didn't like writing alone. In this case, her homesickness had provided the initial inspiration, and after they put their heads together, life in the city informed more of the lyrics. A few days earlier, Michelle says, she had wanted to visit St. Patrick's Cathedral. "I just loved going into churches. And that's where we got the lyric for the second verse."
The factions version is pretty much just about how everywhere except California sucks and, unlike Suicidal Tendencies' classic "Institutionalized", longing for a Coke instead of a Pepsi.
The Original
The Sex Pistols Remake
God Save the Queen
Okay, I cheated. This isn't an actual remake, but it is a great song and the names are the same. Plus, it really pissed the Queen off during a national celebration in her honor and you gotta give credit for that:
There are not many songs - written over baked beans at the breakfast table - that went onto divide a nation and force a change in popular culture. No one had ever dared question the Monarchy so publicly; and it wasn't without its repercussions. Members of the band were attacked in the streets; and Government Members of Parliament even called for the Pistols to be hung at London's Traitors' Gate!
On June 7th - the week of the national celebration of the Queen's Jubilee - the Sex Pistols arranged their own tribute with a boat trip along the River Thames in full view of the Houses of Parliament. After playing a handful of songs - including 'Anarchy in the UK' and 'GSTQ' - Police boarded the boat and arrested several people; including the band's then manager Malcolm McLaren.
What is the Best Remake Ever?
What Cover Song is the Best?
Comments - Tell Me Why I'm Wrong and Who I Left Out
Good List, Tough choices to vote on. The remakes are all pretty strong. I had to go with Sid...just because.
Had to go with Johnny Cash...just because! His Rusty Cage remake was not bad, either.
Some good stuff - Am I Evil is pure quality, and Joey Ramone can do no wrong.
Guns and Roses did a pretty fair remake of "Knockin on heavens door " . But we all know nobody can touch Bob Dylans version !And I am with Sufidreaner on the Johnny Cash choice ! And I saw the ramones like 6 times by 1980 great live band !
That was fun. I chose Happy Together. I love Punk cover versions.:)
Thumbs up.
I think Metallica's Turn the Page was a great remake of the Seger song, so this one choice caught me off guard. I never heard this version of Gin and Juice, great remake, I just don't know if I would play it when I had bitches in the living room gettin' it on.
I would go with the Hurt remake as my fav.
I learned a lot from this hub. I had only heard two of the above remakes previously.
An interesting phenomenon was the recent musical, Jersey Boys, which featured the Four Seasons discography redone by singer/actors. The guy who did Valli was truly amazing.
Agree about Metallica -The Black Album was not just their best album, but is one of my top ten of all time. Sadly, they gave up innovation after that.
I remember a little experiment we did during the Punk Festival in Morecambe, and asked everyone if they had a Johnny Cash album stashed somewhere - they all did. He was a true punk legend, both musically and in the way that he lived his life.
Yea Johnny Cash was a rebel In his heyday , and I always have a lot of respect for that . I have Live at Folsom on Vinyl somewhere around here,as well as having It on CD .Oh one last thing how could anybody not love God Save the Queen by the Sex Pistols ! They rocked a lot harder then people gave the credit for !
How could you pass up the cover of the Moody Blues classic 'Nights In White Satin' as performed by The Dickies?....... or for that matter, The Stranglers cover of 'Walk On By' by Burt Bacharach? Or 'Like A Virgin' by Stiv Bators and The Deadboys? Or Coldplay covering.... oh, never mind... Coldplay doesn't cover tunes they just steal melodies.
Tough one! But I'd go for Annie Lennox's cover of Bob Marley's Waiting in Vain! What? Not included? Okay that makes it tougher. I'd go Johnny Cash - from Nine Inch Nails to him? Like how crazy is that? Though I wish Cash covered NIN's Closer instead! LOL Now i'm off to downloading each! Thanks for sharing E! :D
Cash covering Closer - that would have been funny. I wait for the Celine Dion version - a chance to redeem herself for that insipid and irritating Titanic thing. :)
Must admit, I never took to the Sex Pistols. Don't get me wrong, they needed to happen, for social reasons, and to kill off the pompous and overblown self-important crap that prog-rock had become. I was introduced to punk via the American bands - Dead Kennedys, Ramones and Black Flag. As far as UK punk goes, I preferred Crass. :)
LOL funny indeed - probably up there with Incubus doing that TLC song!
Celine could have sunk with the Titanic for all I care! But I must admit she had some moments. :D
Agreed - don't know about the Philippines, but she was top of the charts for a few months in the UK. I only need to hear the first few bars of that evil tune and I immediately go into a killing frenzy. Death would have been too kind for her!
Same here. And talk about the movie - it went on playing for months! That song and Whitney's I'll Always Love You almost drove me straight to the looney bin. And if they weren't bad enough as they were, they even released disco versions! Talk about overkill!
Hi Eye,
We were just writing off Celine, maybe three heads talking about it could make it come true!
oh right, she's doing a debbie LOL
Maybe that is one of the levels of Hell. Number six is brimstone, flaying and a few hungry baby alligators down the underpants.
The seventh level, reserved for lawyers and mortgage advisors, is that Titanic song played for ALL ETERNITY.
Worse would be Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart, but even Satan is not that evil.
and its shocking that no one has made a movie exclusively about midgets.
that was great. I was trying not to laugh so loud, last thing I want is the wife to bother me about what I'm doing.
Great hub! I would have to agree NIN to JC is the odds-on favorite for unexpected, WTF is that all about? cover.
How about "Little Wing" by Hendrix then SRV.
I chose 'other' on your poll... you heard the punk version of 'I believe I can fly'? I don't know who the artist is (i've forgotten) but it much beats the very boring tones of R Kelly. If you can find it, download it!
Metallica kicks ass! Hell Yeah!
Twist and Shout by the Isley Bros?
Sweet Jane - originally by the Velvet Underground.
All Along the Watchtower - This Bob Dylan song was covered by U2, Springsteen, Jimi Hendrix, and many many more. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twist_and_Shout#Other...
Big misses. Sorry
1. Gang of Four's cover of Bob Marley's "Soul Rebel".
2. The Clash's cover of Willie Wiliams' "Armagideon Time".
3. The Red Hot Chili Peppers' cover of Stevie Wonder's "Higher Ground".
Lately, I've been listening to amateur cover songs on youtube. I really like acoustic covers. There's some talent out there. Then again, there are some terrible singers too :)
Great piece. My respect for Paul Anka & Snoop Dogg went up. I've been brought to tears by Hurt & Joey's Wonderful World. I think it really showed Joey's personality. I do recall reading Trent said "This song doesn't belong to me anymore."
Had to go with 'Hurt' - so moving; What about New Found Glory's cover of Britney Spear's "Hit Me Baby One More Time" - it may not the the best cover - but it is freaking hysterical !
Some good songs in that list, slightly off topic but Ive never heard a bad version of Morning Dew and I'm aware of at least 7 covers of it.
Man, "All Along the Watchtower" is an epic cover song...how'd you overlook it?
Yeah, you are overmatched by your topic to include PUNK covers. There are thousands of them, some bands do entire albums like that.
A cover is when someone takes a completely different interpretation.
Like Jimi - Watchtower, RHCP's Hgher Ground,
or in my case,
I'd argue for Your Love Keeps Liftin Me Higher by Rita Coolidge / Jackie Wilson
It was extremely hard to choose! Great Article!!:)
I'm surprised that Richard Cheese didn't make this list... he's awesome :)
those are really good covers..
This is one of the coolest hubs i have seen! I thougt my fav. was johnny cash and hurt, until i heard gin and juice! Classic:)
Nice list, I voted for hurt. I know you have comented on one of my sites, check out my other at http://metalasylum666.blogspot.com. It is not updated as much as Short Attention Span but it is all about metal.
Johnny Cash was great on Hurt. I was dissapointed that the Ramones version of Wonderful World is no longer here, but I'll find it somewhere. A lot of people have remade Wonderfu World. At the risk of being super corny my fav is Eva Cassidy's version - if that don't make you cry, nothing will. ever.
Some excellent choices there! Hurt gets my vote and now I'm going to watch the videos!
Omg is that your pic in the link you sent me which one is you on the left or right ??
I dont know the best but i know that the craziest is ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK by SEX PISTOLS,
nice...join me 2...
Oh Eyes I am a big fan of these songs xox
Hey nice work. You really put a lot of effort and research into it and I guess it paid off. Great!
You Forgot Red Hot Chili peppers Higher Ground remake by stevie wonder That is one of the best remakes of all time
and their remake of Fire by jimi Hendrix
i must say that the band framming hanley did a great cover of the hip hop song lollipop! its pretty rockin.
Some of my favorite cover songs are the following:
Spiderbait - Black Betty
Union Underground - Call Me
Pantera - Cat Scratch Fever
HIM - Wicked Game
Rage Against the Machine - Kick Out the Jams
Infectious Grooves - Immigrant Song
Faith No More - War Pigs
How bout Dinosaur Jr, Just Like Heaven?
I chose hurt... it really says it all, as the last song Cash released x
Police and thieves by the clash was a good cover.
I believe the cover of "America" by Yes belongs in here.
metallica turn the page for me is better than am i evil. also where in the heck is all along the watchtower by jimi hendrix, no list of covers is complete without it
Wow...my Ipod is in need of this California Dreamin remake! I've never heard it! love it! You may also like Soundgarden's cover of 'Come Together'. I'm not a huge Soundgarden fan but they made me love them after hearing their live cover of it.
Seether - Careless whisper??? Must be on your list
Good ear Eye, and good list. Gotta vote for JC- Cash, not the other one :) Also, kudos to Rob Zombie for including Nan Vernon's remake of "Love Hurts" at the end of "Halloween II" remake. Maybe not in the top 10, but you'll never hear that song again without thinking of the inside of a rubber room if you watch the movie!
Too true. Thought of another good one that I would put in a top 10. Aaron Lewis doing the acoustic version of Pearl Jam's "Black". I almost prefer that to the original. Almost.
"Simple Man" -Shinedown originally done by Lynyrd Skynyrd by far my favorite remake of ALL TIME!!!!
Shindown has two of my favs.....simple man and one
This is an awesome hub, EYEAM4ANARCHY. I found a couple of the videos "out of order" but the text explanations are sufficient to give a really good sense of what is different between cover versions, anyway. lol @ Sid Vicious cover - I really liked that one... nice write up about Sid, too. *thumbsup* I will be back to this hub to "listen" and to check for updates that you might make.
Nice list, but I would put Jimi Hendrix's 'All Along the Watchtower' remake on there.
I like Sid Vicious' My Way and Johnny Cash's Hurt.
No love for jimi and all along the watch tower):
the who - summertime blues
These seem like odd choices... http://www.therockczar.com/misc/top-20-covers-of-a... has better choices IMO.
good choices on list but the best is Mad World- adam Lambert. Close seconds: Wish-Linkin Park, Imagine- A Perfect Circle (on there though) and Mad World- Gary Jules
good job but very flawed list.
-Jeff Buckleys cover of leonard Cohens "Hallejulah"
-Jimi Hendrix cover of bob dylans " All along the watchtower"
-Nirvanas cover of Bowies "man who sold the world"
-The beatles cover of the isley brothers "twist and shout"
-The white stripes cover of dolly partons "jolene"
good try though......
Manfred Mann's cover of Bruce Springsteen's Blinded by the Light. Have you ever heard the original played anywhere? No, because it sucks.
Everywhere -- Yellowcard
Gary Jules cover of mad world by tears for fears.
The knife's cover of heartbeats by jose gonzalez.
both amazing covers and originals
Devo doing Satisfaction!! Best!
it should be higher ground by red hot chili peppers
It has to be The Couresans cover of 'Venus in Furs' by The Velvet Underground facebook.com/thecourtesans it's awesome!
Black magic woman?? (Santana covering Fleetwood Mac)
I enjoy how you do the comparisons of the covers and original. I also just posted part 1 (100-91)of my lists of the best covers. Like you, I do appreciate artists that rework the originals, doing something to put there own unique stamp on the song.
Where Jimi Hendrix's All Along the Watchtower cover of Bob Dylans song? Bob Dylan even plays jimi's version instead of his own!

Concerto in c minor (Andruad)-OB/PN
Composer: Marcello
Publisher: Southern Music Co
Edition: SS181
The Marcello Oboe Concerto is arguably the most recognized and performed work for the instrument. This beautiful three movement concerto is accessible to younger oboists as well as professionals. This piece is frequently performed in the key of c minor, or in the key of d minor. TrevCo-Varner Music offers the work in both keys, both for oboe and piano, or oboe and orchestra.
When selecting an edition of this work, check the second movement's ornamentation carefully. Many editions provide the ornamentation by Richard Lauschmann, others use the ornamentation by J.S. Bach (based off of his edition of the piece for harpsichord, BWV 974), and some offer no written out ornamentation at all.
This particular edition in c minor for oboe and piano is the edition by Albert Andraud, created in 1923 specifically for the oboe as solo instrument.

The best thing about this garden box is it will not rot and it has this tent over the soil, with a zipper. I am slowly growing veggies right now and once they get big enough to transplant, they are going to on into my new Lifetime Garden Box.
Anyway, back to what I was going to talk about. When the box arrived, I showed my twins and we opened it up together in the backyard. They had a blast cutting open the box, sitting on the box, pulling out the parts for the box and oh yes, playing in the box. Oh yeah, even at 7 years old, my twins still love playing in and on boxes. Are you kids still like this?
After all the parts were laid out, I began reading the directions.

Blessed Are the Gentle (4 of 9) by Jim Perdue

Matthew 5:5
*I heard a story about a man out West who owned a junkyard. He worked hard to make a living buying and selling all the salvaged junk he could find. But one day, while working into the late hours of the evening, he discovered that his junkyard was located on an oil field. He hired a drilling crew, and soon the black gold flowed abundantly from the earth. His junkyard was transformed into an gold mine. black gold, Texas-T.*
In the Beatitudes we have a mine of spiritual gold. But many people go on with their life, scratching around on the surface, picking up salvaged junk and they never get beneath the surface and discover the key to a blessed life.
Jesus goes well beneath the surface; He goes right to the heart. You need to remember, what happens in you is more important than what happens to you. Jesus has promised a blessed life and He shows us the way. It's not through external circumstances but an internal change of heart. READ TEXT
Once again, Jesus challenges the preconceived notions of the day. The Pharisees wanted a miraculous kingdom, the Sadducees wanted a materialistic kingdom, the Zealots wanted a military kingdom but the humble Jesus offered a meek kingdom.
The natural irony of meekness: ''blessed are the meek…''
There is a strange paradox and natural irony to all of these Beatitudes. They are distinctly spiritual and contrary to our natural way of life.
*Two men faced each other before the governor's palace. One was Jesus Christ, the meekest man who ever lived. The other was Pontius Pilate, a man of extraordinary pride. Jesus appeared as the epitome of weakness, a poor Jew caught in the tides of Roman history, frail and powerless, destined to be obliterated from the earth. Pilate was the personification of Roman power. The tides of history were with him. As part of Rome, he was heir to the earth. The two figures are opposite ends of a tra ...

Starring Richa Chadda, Adil Hussain and Tisca Chopra in pivotal roles, the film is directed by Prawaal Raman. 'Main Aur Charles' will hit the theatre screens on October.

A debt-to-income ratio is a personal finance measure that compares the amount of debt you have to your overall income. Lenders use the debt-to-income ratio as a way to measure your ability to manage the payments you make each month and repay the money you have borrowed. The ratio is calculated by dividing your total recurring monthly debt by your gross monthly income. For example, if your total recurring monthly debt is $2,000 and your gross monthly income is $6,000, your debt-to-income ratio would be 33% ($2,000 / $6,000 = 0.33, or 33%).
There are two ways to lower your debt-to-income ratio:
- Reduce your monthly recurring debt
- Increase your gross monthly income (or a combination of the two)
In the above example, the debt-to-income ratio was 33%, based on total recurring monthly debt of $2,000 and a gross monthly income of $6,000. If the total recurring monthly debt were reduced to $1,500, the debt-to-income ratio would correspondingly decrease to 25% ($1,500 / $6,000 = 0.25, or 25%). Similarly, if debt stays the same as in the first example but we increase the income to $8,000, again the debt-to-income ratio drops ($2,000 / $8,000 = 0.25, or 25%).
Of course, reducing debt is easier said than done. It can be helpful to make a conscious effort to avoid going further into debt by considering needs versus wants when spending. Needs are things you have to have in order to survive: food, shelter, clothing, health care and transportation. Wants, on the other hand, are things you would like to have, but that you don't need to survive. Once your needs have been met each month, you might have discretionary income available to spend on wants. You don't have to spend it all, and it makes financial sense to stop spending so much money on things you don't need. It is also helpful to create a budget that includes paying down the debt you already have.
To increase your income, you might be able to:
- Find a second job or work as a freelancer in your spare time
- Work more hours or overtime at your primary job
- Ask for a pay increase
- Take on more responsibility at work
- Complete coursework and/or licensing that will increase your skills, marketability and salary

Originally posted on NESN.com | Last updated 3/16/13
Saturday was pay day for Darrelle Revis. The cornerback didn't ink the mega-deal he so desires, but due to a clause in his contract, Revis was awarded a $1 million roster bonus Saturday afternoon. He won't actually receive the payment until later this year, ESPN.com's Rich Cimini reports, but the bonus will count against the Jets' salary cap. Rumors have flown regarding the All-Pro's future this offseason, with Philadelphia, San Francisco, Atlanta and — most recently — Tampa Bay among those vying for Revis' services. The popular sentiment seems to be that Revis will not be a Jet for much longer, but he's scheduled to a few extra bucks this offseason if he remains in New York for a few more months. In addition to the bonus that went into effect this weekend, Revis' contract includes a $1 million workout bonus and a $1 million reporting bonus scheduled for late June and late July, respectively.

US dating 'should not be a chore'Posted on: December 11, 2009 17:14:14
Anyone considering using US dating agencies has been urged to "stop looking at dating as a game or a chore".
Instead, Lavanya Ramanathan tells the Washington Post that they should approach it with "optimism and confidence" as it is meant to be a fun experience that people can enjoy as they are looking for a new partner.
The author states that although older people should take a leaf out of the book of many 20-year-olds and take a relaxed approach to dating, so that they can let their natural charms shine through.
"No one does this better than people in their 20s," the article continues, and 24-year-old Matt Simpson tells the publication that in his opinion, it is better to meet people through a mutual interest rather than just bumping into them in a bar.
In related news, Satch Ejike, author of Find a Good Man and Keep Him, recently urged people not to be afraid of online dating websites as they can actually be very convenient ways of meeting people.

Sir Joseph Banks Website Project
The Banks Project aims to improve access to the State Library's Sir Joseph Banks collection. The Banks Archive is currently accessed through a standalone website developed over 20 years ago with images generated from microfilm.
The first stage of the Project will include background on the project, the life of Sir Joseph Banks and access to the fully digitised Endeavour journal.

Two videos I never tire of watching
I was looking back through the EKN archives and found this video, which I very much enjoy on all kinds of level: Macca celebrating his rock and roll roots, a great arrangement, and fabulous dance moves in the video making it all a celebration of multicultural Britain. I'm all for variety.
For various reasons which should become clear, the dancing video reminded me that Persephone of Post-It Notes From Hades posted a great video recently, which I instantly pinched and stuck on my Facebook wall but never got round to linking here. (In the intervening period the Youtube version Persephone used - and which I used on FB - has been blocked, but it's still on Vimeo.) It shows an amazing marriage proposal by Isaac Lamb, a guy in Portland, Oregon. Now proposals can be romantic, they can be soppy, and sometimes they can be truly awe-inspiring, like this one. Or perhaps I mean awesome and inspiring.
The song is "Marry You" by Bruno Mars. And "dancing juice" is apparently what they call alcohol in Portland, Oregon. Sit back and marvel.
It's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Well I know this little chapel on the boulevard we can go,
No one will know,
Oh, come on, girl.
Who cares if we're trashed got a pocket full of cash we can blow,
Shots of patron,
And it's on, girl.
Don't say no, no, no, no-no;
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah;
And we'll go, go, go, go-go.
If you're ready, like I'm ready.
I'll go get a ring let the choir bells sing like oooh,
So what you wanna do?
Let's just run girl.
If we wake up and you wanna break up that's cool.
No, I won't blame you;
It was fun, girl.
Just say I do
Tell me right now, baby
Tell me right now, baby
Just say I do
Tell me right now, baby
Tell me right now, baby

I have never been to any of the suites in either Disney World, or Disneyland. Seeing what they have come up with for guests makes me want to go and stay at one of the suites like the Adventureland Suite at the Disneyland Hotel. In Disney World they have the Castle Suite, but that is about the most ellaborate accomodations that I can think of. I know that there is a Mickey Mouse Penthouse, and a Fairy Tale Suite also at the Disneyland Hotel.
After reading I noticed that it is only a fake fireplace. This obviously has to do with many factors like use, safety, cleaning, and more. Are there actual fireplace inserts there, or is it just a piece to look like a fireplace?
Info from the Disney Blog…
"This suite takes guests on the most luxurious safari ever. With the feel of an explorers' camp from the 1930s, the Adventureland Suite features a master bedroom fashioned as a safari lodge with a claw-foot bathtub in the living area. In the master bathroom lies a grotto with a foot spa, steam and rain showers, and lighting and sound effects that make you feel like you're in a rain forest or a savanna. Younger explorers will love the second bedroom, which makes you feel like you're sleeping in a safari tent.
The Asian/Indian-inspired main living area includes a wet bar, a flat-screen TV hidden behind artwork above the faux fireplace, and a "hidden" closet (hint: try the bookcase). When you're in this suite, it even sounds like you're in the jungle: the doorbell "rings" with tiki gods playing drums, and – for the first time in a Disneyland Hotel suite – themed background music plays three separate tracks inspired by the Jungle Cruise, Disney adventure-themed movies and world music first created for Disney's Animal Kingdom."
Have you ever stayed at any of the Disney suites?

Easy Braised Artichokes
Recipe by breezermom
This recipe came from Sunny Anderson's "Cooking for Real". I've recently started enjoying artichokes....can't believe I haven't been eating them until now (except as a dip or marinated on salads)!
Top Review by Debbwl
We love Artichokes and thought this was a great new tasty way to enjoy them. I did cut the recipe down as we had one giant Artichoke and there was only two of us this evening. The Artichokes were fall apart tender at 50 minutes and so tasty they did not need butter or mayo. Thanks for the post.
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 lemons
- 3 artichokes
- 3 garlic cloves, halved lengthwise
- 1⁄4 cup olive oil, divided
- salt
- black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 cup chicken stock
Directions See How It's Made
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Fill a medium bowl with water and squeeze the juice of 1 lemon in the bowl, tossing in the lemon halves as well. Rinse each artichoke and trim 1/2-inch off of the stalk. Trim 1-inch off the top of each artichoke.
- Cut each artichoke in half, from stalk to tip, and remove the choke with a spoon or paring knife. Remove the tough outer leaves and trim the outside of the stalk with a paring knife. Add the prepped artichokes to the bowl of lemon water to keep them from browning while they are cooking.
- Slice the remaining lemon. In a baking dish large enough to place the artichokes in 1 even layer, place the slices in the dish to form a bed for the artichokes. In the center of each artichoke, add a garlic half and drizzle with half the olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then place cut side down on top of the lemon slices, holding the garlic clove in half as you turn them.
- Pour the chicken stock around the sides, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch of stock should be in the bottom of the baking dish.
- Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the tops of the artichokes, sprinkle with salt and pepper, cover and firmly seal with aluminum foil. Bake in the oven until fork-tender and the leaves peel off easily, about 1 hour.

New England Revolution leads the Eastern Conference with 23 points, but if Kansas City can win both games and the Revolution loses its game against Montreal Impact, Kansas City will be in control of the conference.
There are several scenarios where teams can drop at least two spots if they fail to secure a victory, but there aren't scenarios that top these scintillating topics.
Who will win the battle of leading goalscorer?
On Tuesday, the two leading goalscorers go head-to-head when Kansas City hosts New York Red Bulls. The match which will be aired on ESPN2 at 8 p.m. ET will place Dom Dwyer against Bradley Wright-Phillips in what could be a Game of the Year candidate.
Last season, Dwyer opened his MLS account in a 3-2 loss against the Red Bulls at Sporting Park. This season, the English forward has been on a tear, scoring 10 goals in 10 starts. That's two more goals than the rest of his teammates combined.
Wright-Phillips has been a revelation this season, scoring 10 goals in nine starts. With Thierry Henry not playing at his best and Tim Cahill on international duty, the English forward has had to do most of the scoring. Against a weak defense and with his current form, the 29-year-old shouldn't have any trouble finding the back of the net.
This week, Dwyer has two chances to extend his lead at the top of the goal scoring chart. His team will travel to the capital to face a rejuvenated D.C. United on the last day of the month.
Who will win the battle of the titans?
Seattle Sounders vs Real Salt Lake, I rest my case.
Even though both teams are without their star players, this is arguable the best match-up of the season. These two powerhouses stand alone at the top of a packed Western Conference.
Salt Lake can make history if the team doesn't lose on Saturday. The successful club could extend its undefeated streak to 13 games, breaking 1996 LA Galaxy's 12 game streak. The men in Claret and Cobalt could also knock Seattle off the top of the conference with a victory.
Coming off an entertaining Cascadia Cup match, the Sounders will take the fight to their rival. Sigi Schmid men have proven that they know how to win in tough situations and as long as Obafemi Martins is on the pitch, the men in rave green are terrifying.
Will impossible become possible?
They say in MLS even the best team can fall at the hands of the worst team. Montreal Impact fans will be praying that this saying is true as the Revolution make their way into town. The Impact sits at the bottom of the Eastern Conference, while their opponent is top of the challenging conference.
Montreal has been atrocious this season, winning one game out of 11. The Canadian team has only managed to score only nine goals this season, but has conceded 22 goals. On Saturday, the Impact face a team that is currently on a five game winning streak, and has managed to put the ball in the back of the net 16 times in those five games.
If Montreal someone finds a way to defeat the Revolution, it would be the ideal motivator for the players and fans.

Mark Paschal: We had better match their intensity from the opening kick or we will be in for a long game. The game of football has to be played with intensity and passion to be successful, especially on the defensive side of the ball. Often times "emotion" is not jumping up and down and dancing during warm ups; it is a look in your teammates eyes before the kickoff and you know, undoubtedly, he is going to do everything physically possible to win the game and he believes that you will do the same for him.
Quincy Monk: Wake Forest always gets emotionally high and pumped up anytime they play us. They look to this game as a bit of a rivalry. I know for certain that the Demon Deacons are going to be emotionally fired up to play us on Saturday. We better make sure that we are ready to match their intensity or it could be a long game for the Heels. Wake Forest isn't a team that we should take lightly, so hopefully the Heels will have that mindset on Saturday.
Scott Lenahan: It should be emotional, every game is emotional. You put so much work in year round for only a few games a year. The culmination of all your hard effort can sometimes come down to just a few plays, and I hope these guys realize that. I think most do. With this being an in-state rivalry game for us and homecoming, I'd hope that we'd be emotional, especially after what transpired this past weekend.
Deems May: We can't worry about Wake's intensity. We need to concentrate on nothing but how we are going to play this week. Our whole team needs to watch Sylvester Williams' game last week and commit to playing like he did. If we do that, we will not have to worry about how much intensity Wake plays with.
Buck: Wake Forest has discovered a potent passing attack this season, averaging 285 yards a game through the air. North Carolina is next to last in the ACC in pass defense, giving up over 263 yards per game. What does North Carolina have to do defensively against Wake Forest to negate this seeming advantage for the Deacons?
Quincy: I really would like for UNC to start to add some defensive pressure with more blitz packages against opposing teams. The few times where we were able to bring six or more defensive members, we were able to get the quarterback off his rhythm. Pressure will only add in helping to negate Wake Forest's passing attack. I expect to see more pressure applied to opposing teams.
Scott: One word: Pressure. Against Clemson it worked when we brought the pressure. When we sat back and tried to keep things in front of us we got beat. Why not gamble and bring it? If we get beat, we get beat. Athletically, our team is off the charts. I'd rather see us get beat by someone just being better than us physically, than a team getting a touchdown off of blown coverage or a missed assignment. Sometimes the best thing for these guys is to unleash them. Let them pin their ears back and create some plays.
Deems: We have to go back to the mere basics in coverage, stick with as simple a plan as possible and go play. Don't think, react, find some confidence. Find a new leader with Matt Merletti gone, be aggressive, get a few PI's, holding calls..whatever -- just be aggressive and attack. If you miss a jam or they complete a pass, so what? Get up and go play hard the next play. But have some fun and try to knock receivers out legally who come in to your zone.
Mark: Pressure the quarterback and guard some wide outs that have been running freely through the secondary would be a good start. In all seriousness, we desperately have to develop a better pass rush – it's killing our secondary, and our secondary has to guard someone so our pass rush has a chance to get there.
Buck: There's been a good bit of criticism of UNC quarterback Bryn Renner in recent weeks, some arguing that he has regressed as a quarterback over the course of the season. How do you assess the play of Renner? Is he getting better?
Deems: Renner set the bar high early. Last year we all were calling for him before T.J. Yates had a great camp. Expectations were high for him and they went higher with a near perfect opening game. He is not taking good care of the ball. Fumbles have popped up in the last two games and non-aggressive decisions and throws have lead to too many picks. Rumor has it that he is hurting out there, so his toughness can't be questioned. He needs to relax and have fun, too. Don't put too much pressure on yourself - study, prepare, be decisive and have fun. If you make a mistake, do it full speed and don't let it lead to other mistakes. Football is a fun game, but it can beat you down if you lose confidence - find a way to get confidence back and step up and be a leader. That is what great QB's do.
Mark: I wouldn't throw Renner under the bus quite yet. I really think it is a combination of poor execution and unconventional play calling. Renner has the same arm, same feet, same everything he had when he started the year. His confidence is obviously shaken but this is to be expected from a first-year quarterback – we were spoiled with his early season play against inferior opponents. Let's not crucify him yet. I am looking forward to seeing how he responds the rest of the year.
Quincy: I think Renner is continuing to improve in his quarterback play; his ability to stretch the field with his deep passing ability keeps us competitive offensively. However I think some of the turnovers are a bit concerning. We have to find a way not to give opposing teams extra opportunities to score by protecting the football. I addition, we still must remember that this is Renner's first year as a starter, so there still will be a lot of growing pains throughout the season. We should expect Bryn to get better as the season continues.
Scott: I can't say that he is the same quarterback we saw in the beginning of the season. I understand that his ankle has been causing him some problems, but he definitely is more timid. He seems robotic in his progressions at times and waiting for certain receivers or routes to develop instead of reading the field and coverages. Playing quarterback is a difficult position and extremely mental. With the complications of the different shifts, movements, check downs, it could be causing him to over think and not play fluid. He'd feel more comfortable and play relaxed if we could simplify things for him a bit. I also understand that as the season progresses you need to add wrinkles, which again adds to the complexity of running the offense. Renner has all the tools and will be an amazing quarterback for us, he just needs to relax and not put so much pressure on himself.
Buck: T.J. Thorpe didn't start as a kickoff returner last week, interim head coach Everett Withers saying he didn't start Thorpe because he had a fumble against Miami – he reinserted him after Charles Brown fumbled a kick. What's your theory about sitting players who've made a mistake? Does it make them more competitive, or does it make them tight, fearing they'll make a mistake?
Quincy: I think when you sit a player that makes a mistake on the football field, it can have two different outcomes. It can force a player to be play more cautiously resulting in the individual playing nervous and scared to make a mistake, or it can result in a wakeup call for the player. The result of T.J. Thorpe's mistake was a kickoff return. Let's see what the result we will get from Charles Brown on Homecoming.
Deems: Not sure who made this call but it was a mistake to sit him and that's not hindsight after the touchdown. If Thorpe would've had a fumble comparable to Brown's in the third quarter where Brown was dancing and stopped (you never, ever break stride when returning a kick) on a return then, yes, you sit him. Or if his fumble was like Highsmith's in the second quarter with the ball hanging out and not protected, sit him, but not Thorpe's in the Miami game. The defender put his helmet right on the ball, T.J. was going full speed and hitting a return like you are supposed to (not dancing, or stopping like it is high school). Not many people would've held on to that ball. T.J. returns kicks like you are supposed to: straight line, full speed, don't make your move until you break through the first line (like he did on Saturday) - that is how you return kickoffs.
Scott: Tough question. I think it really depends on the player and it's a case-by-case basis. If a player messes up you obviously don't let it slide, but in most cases the player will be harder on themselves than the coach would be. That being said, I think that it usually fuels competition. You want to prove the coach wrong and prove to yourself that although a mistake was made, I'm still the man for the job. But the caveat to that is if you pull a player who's producing and just made a small mental error, it can break them. They might think instead of it being a punishment, that the coach no longer has confidence in them. Obviously Thorpe is a special kid and came back with the vengeance, and I'm sure glad he did.
Mark: Every player makes mistakes, it is part of the game. I am all for sitting players who make mistakes, too. They will get another opportunity and when they do, sometimes they just take it 100 yards for a touchdown. You cannot play tight or scared, this is big boy football and you will be held accountable for mistakes. But there are two types of mistakes: I can live with a mistake if it is someone going 100 miles and hour, giving everything they have to make a play. I can't live with a mistake if it is an unfocused or an unforced error (not saying that either fumble by Brown or Thorpe was unfocused or unforced, but you have to protect the ball in the kicking game, if not it will get you beat every time).
Buck: A win over Wake Forest would make North Carolina bowl eligible. How important is it for this team, with all the adversity they've dealt with, to make it to a bowl game this year?
Scott: I'd be lying to say that it wouldn't be important to this team go to a bowl, but I know that they expected better and more from themselves. Especially with all the tools and great players we had on the roster, I think these guys expected nothing less than an ACC Championship. Heck, I know I wanted it for them, too. But make no doubt about it, the way our team comes out against Wake Forrest will speak volumes about the personality of this team. If it's the team I think it is, we should be coming out Saturday to play Wake Forrest with blood in our eyes.
Quincy: It would be a tremendous achievement for these guys to come out of this year with an opportunity to play in a bowl game. Through all the heartache and black clouds that have hovered over Chapel Thrill, it would be good to see some positive light shine over the season.
Mark: Becoming bowl eligible would be huge for this team. We need some positive energy and a boost in morale to finish this season. We have a month of football left, and for the majority of our seniors, it will be the last four games of their life. How do you want to be remembered? This is your time, make the most of it. Leave it all out there and play for one another. Play for Coach Withers, play for your personal champion who has helped you get to where you are now, and play for No. 25 - because I'd be damned if he saw me take a play off and not give it all I had every snap. Matt, thank you for your effort and commitment these past five years on the field, in the classroom, in the community and in the locker room. You are what is right with college football. You have represented our University with class, honor and dignity; you have made me very proud.
Deems: The situation that we are in did not have to happen. But it is what it is. Bowl games should be the furthest from anyone's mind right now. It's unfortunate where we are and I feel bad for the seniors who will play their last two home games to a half empty stadium and conversation of who has tickets to the battleship basketball game in San Diego. This team has to make a decision this week and I'm not talking about the coaches, just the players. Do they want to be 5-7 or 9-3? (either is very possible). Do they want to be the team that started 5-1 and lost 6 in a row or 5-1, lost two and battled back and played in a desirable bowl game? The talent is here to do the latter, but it will take leadership from within, playing hard every play, not worrying about mistakes, and having fun. This has to come from the players; they have to want the best for their coaches and each other (especially the seniors who have done it right). It starts Saturday with Wake Forest, let's see how much heart we have, let's play like big Sylvester plays every down.
Scott Lenahan manned the center position in Chapel Hill from 2003-07, overlapping two coaching regimes. Nicknamed 'Tank' for his weight room exploits, he earned the top senior honor on the '07 Tar Heel team.
Deems May excelled at tight end for UNC and was drafted in 1992, playing eight seasons in the NFL. He's since become a fan favorite for his candid commentary on the Tar Heel Sports Network.
Quincy Monk recorded 247 tackles at linebacker during his Tar Heel career from 1998-2001. He was drafted into the NFL and spent three seasons in the professional ranks.
Mark Paschal was a team captain for the Tar Heels in 2008. As a middle linebacker, he led the team in tackles prior to a career-ending injury and didn't miss a game in his career up until that point.

Nurses today voted overwhelmingly to reject proposals to charge patients £10 to see their GP.
Some nurses believe making patients pay for an appointment could slash the amount of people needlessly turning up at surgeries for minor ailments.
It could also help bring in vital cash to help boost care across the NHS, they argue.
But more than 4,000 nurses attending the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) annual conference in Liverpool today voted not to back charges for GP appointments.
The motion to support charges for GP consultation was rejected by 91% of delegates. It means it will now not become official RCN policy.
Speaking after the proposals were thrown out, RCN chief executive Dr Peter Carter said: "Charging patients for GP visits is a controversial issue - one that goes to the heart of what the NHS is and should be.
"Today, nurses and health care assistants have reaffirmed their passionate belief that the NHS should be free at the point of delivery.
"The future funding of the NHS is shrouded in uncertainty and we need clear direction from our politicians about the way ahead so that clinicians and commissioners can plan for the future.
"As the General Election approaches, the public need to know where the parties stand on this vital issue.
"Nurses are passionate about protecting the health service and its founding principles but they know that it faces challenges, that its finances are finite and so they will continue to address the difficult questions."
Last month GPs voted against a similar proposal to charge patients at the British Medical Association's annual local medical committee conference in York.
Jeremy Hunt has also rejected the idea of GP charges.
A Department of Health spokeswoman said: "The NHS should be free at the point of use and we will not charge for GP appointments."

William Henry Harrison was the 9th President of the United States of America. He won election thanks to his powerful campaign slogan "If you don't elect me, so help me god, I'll tip this canoe over. Then you'll all be sorry."
He was in office for thirty days, but pussied out, whining that his lungs were "full of fluid." He died of pneumonia, which he contracted as he gave his inaugural address (which nobody attended) in the freezing cold outside the White House, which also still emanated a chilly aura of frost after twelve years of Democrat power.
Harrison was a Whig. Nobody is quite sure what that means. But it sure made him die in a big fat hurry.
A supreme disappointment, but better than Martin Van Buren.

Description: They Play, You Pay is a detailed, sometimes irreverent look at a political conundrum: despite evidence that publicly funded ballparks, stadiums, and arenas do not generate net economic growth, governments keep on taxing sales, restaurant patrons, renters of automobiles, and hotel visitors in order to build ever more elaborate cathedrals of professional sport-often in order to satisfy an owner who has threatened to move his team to greener, more subsidyhappy, pastures. This book is a sweeping survey of the literature in the field, the history of such subsidies, the politics of stadium construction and franchise movement, and the prospects for a repriva�ti�zation of ballpark and stadium financing. It ties together disparate strands in a fascinating story, examining the often colorful cases through which governments became involved in sports. These range from the wellknown to the obscure-from Yankee Stadium and the Astrodome to the Brooklyn Dodgers' move to Los Angeles (to a privately built ballpark constructed upon land that had been seized via eminent domain from a mostly MexicanAmerican population) to such arrant giveaways as Cowboys Stadium. It examines alternatives that might lessen the pressure for public subsidies, whether the Green Bay Packers model (in which the team's owners are local stockholders) or via league expan�sions. It also takes a look at little-known, yet significant, episodes such as President Theodore Roosevelt's intervention in the collegiate football crisis of 1905-a move that indirectly put the federal government on the side of such basic rule changes as the legalization of the forward pass. They Play, You Play is a fresh look at a political and economic puzzle: how it came to be that Joe and Jane Sixpack in the Bronx and Dallas subsidize the Steinbrenners and Jerry Joneses of professional sport.

A Kent charity is warning dog owners to keep their pooches away from Easter eggs.
Labrador Rescue Kent and Borders (LRK) is urging people to be cautious as chocolate can prove fatal for canines.
It contains a toxic element called theobromine which dogs are particularly sensitive to and even the tiniest amount can kill.
Humans can process this substance but dogs are unable to.
Trustee at LRK Maggie Hinks said: "It is better to be safe than sorry and to make sure that all Easter eggs are out of reach and kept in a closed cupboard.
"If a dog has eaten some chocolate it may suffer from vomiting and diarrhoea, and muscle spasm. It will then have convulsions and could even die.
"If in doubt contact your vet as soon as you notice something wrong, but try to make sure that temptation is not there in the first place.
"You would not want to see your dog in such pain."
The charity aims to recover, rehabilitate and rehome any Labrador Retriever in the County of Kent and its borders which has been abused, neglected or whose owners can no longer keep it.

Peyton Manning Rumors
February 1, 2012 by staff
Peyton Manning Rumors, Should the Jets get Peyton Manning if the future NFL Hall of Famer becomes available? That's a question on the minds of many Jets fans these days, following a very lackluster 8-8 season that ended with dissension in the locker room and uncertainty that quarterback Mark Sanchez can ever lead them to the promised land.
At least one Jets fan, former Jets running back Curtis Martin, thinks it's a no-brainer.
"I'm not saying anything against Mark Sanchez, but Peyton Manning… I have a lot of respect for the guy," Martin said in an interview with ESPNNewYork.com on Jan. 27. "I played against him for a number of years.
"I wouldn't care who was on my team – if Peyton Manning was available, I would go after him."
Eli's big brother, 36, sat out the entire season following surgery to remove a disc in his upper spine. The disc was replaced with a bone graft and has fused, but it was his third neck operation in two years.
That's one reason Manning could be available. There are two others.
One is that the Colts will have the No. 1 pick in this year's draft, which features Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck. The other is that Manning is due a $28 million signing bonus on March 8 unless the team gives him his release.
