Baker pushes Padres past NationalsMay 16, 2012 - 5:39 AM Washington, DC (Sports Network) - John Baker collected three hits, drove in three runs and scored once as the San Diego Padres salvaged a split of a two- game set with the Washington Nationals with a 6-1 win on Tuesday.
Anthony Bass (2-4) tossed eight strong innings in the victory, fanning seven while allowing just five hits, a walk and a run. James Darnell also homered as the Padres snapped a two-game skid.
Stephen Strasburg (3-1) was smacked around for four runs on seven hits and two walks over just four frames. It was Strasburg's shortest outing of the season, and tied for the second-shortest in the young ace's career.
"Our guys knew coming in they were in for a tough one," Padres manager Bud Black said. "I think the key was we laid off some borderline pitches and didn't expand the strike zone. That's how you beat good pitching."
Bryce Harper hit a solo shot for the Nationals, who have lost two of three.
San Diego got to Strasburg immediately. Will Venable, who had four hits, led off the game with a double on a ball that fell between left fielder Roger Bernadina, center fielder Rick Ankiel and shortstop Ian Desmond. Venable came around to score on Yonder Alonso's one-out base hit three batters later.
"Three guys could have caught that ball and two looked at each other. Nobody called it," Nationals manager Davey Johnson said. "You can't take anything for granted in this game."
With the bases loaded with two outs later in the frame, and following an eight-minute rain delay, Baker's ground ball single up the middle plated Alonso and Chase Headley.
Darnell drove Strasburg's 95 mile-per-hour fastball deep into the left-field seats in the third to push the lead to 4-0.
Baker made it a five-run Padres advantage in the fifth with an RBI single before Harper got the run back in the home half.
A day after his first career homer, Harper doubled his career total with a long blast to right-center that got Washington on the board.
Venable produced the game's final run with a single up the center, allowing Baker to trot home from third.
Game Notes
Harper's home run was Washington's lone extra-base hit...The Nationals host Pittsburgh for two games before welcoming Baltimore for a three-game interleague tilt...San Diego returns home for two-games against the Dodgers and three with the Angels.

YO!! Van here again
so i was bored and i decided to write another fanfic except this time it'll be funny
summury: What will sasuke, 16 years old, do when the dobe comes up to him and asks him the Question that will change their lives?
warnings: male X male pairings, in other words soft yaoi, in other words hint of hot male smex!! muahahahahaha . . . ahem my inner deborah took control for a second. I apologise for the inconvenience. Oh yea and there will be sakura bashing. :D
Bold sasukes thoughts
Italics inner sasuke
At sixteen years old, sasuke was the epitome of what we could call a loner. He had no friends, or he did but he just refuse to recognize them, and he had no sex life. He woke up early every day, trained then went back home. The only thing that changed in his monotone routine was maybe a blonde interferance he called "dobe" although sometimes the pink neon sign (1) tagged along with "The Dobe".
Not that sasuke didn't have everything he wanted . . . sort of. He hadn't avenged his clan and he still didn't have uchiha babies. Although he was unnaturally handsome what with his pale skin, black hair and smoldering black eyes; he could have anyone and i mean anyone. He could have men ranging from ages 12 to 60 (even straight men) and he could have women ranging from ages 9 to 70 but he didn't want anyone. He just wanted to kill the weasel (2) and restore his clan somehow.
So that leads us to where our brooding male is now, on this bright and sunny morning heading to the usual meeting area for team 7.
pff I could have killed Itachi if naruto didn't get involved.
sasuke thought glaring at nothing in particular
Uhuh suuuurreeee. Just be happy naruto saved your pale arse! If he didn't pull you out of there Itachi would have insinerated you before you could say "weasel".
Inner sasuke said in a matter of fact kind of voice.
Itachi was going blind! i nearly had him!
Yeah i wonder why he was going blind . . . he might've seen sakuras hair and started to go blind because of the color!
the voice said with an evil snicker
Hn. Yeah even a blind man can see her.
sasuke thought with a smirk on his face.
Soooo when are you going to tell the walking neon sign that you aren't as straight as a ruler?
straight as a ruler? are you implying that i'm gay?
Nooo i would never say that. I'm just saying you're as straight as a ruler bended into a 90° angle
the voice said with an innocent voice . . . yeah right
I am not gay!! I'm asexual!!
sasuke thought furiously approaching the bridge.
Denial is not a river in Egypt, but it clearly floats your boat.
the voice said with a smug tone.
Sasuke growled low in his throat as he approached his teammates.
"Good morning sasuke-kun" sakura said with a huge grin on her face, entering his personal bubble.
She looks slightly constipated, oh no wait that's her usual expression.
sasuke felt the corner of his lips twitch giving him a slightly homicidal look.
Sakura took that as a sign to step away from sasukes personal bubble.
He kept walking past sakura until he found his favorite spot. Resting his weight on the rail and the bridge he looks around looking for the dobe.
Do i hear a hint of sadness in your tone?
No, you got confused with my happiness.
Ah yes, that must be it since you're always a little bundle of joy i can never tell the difference. What a shame.
He was about to respond when a loud shouting stirred him from his thoughts. He looked over at sakura who was now yelling at naruto for something.
Wow, do you think we could write on her forehead and hope the message reaches Itachi?
It's large enough.
just then a ray of sunlight hit her hair.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaah!! MY EYES!! IT BURNSSSSSS!!
sasuke let out a chuckle, making the other two stop and look at him. When he noticed their looks, he just glared at them and turned away.
I thought i was going blind!!
Yeah, maybe then you'd shut up.
You're sooo mean to meeeeeeee! even if i did go blind, i'd talk more, because without the use of one of my limited senses i'd have to use my other sense a lot.
No you don't have to. You could just be blind and quiet.
But then i wouldn't be able to annoy you.
Yeah like right now.
He thought not paying attention to the voice. Then he noticed something near him, he looked towards the source to see naruto looking at him with a confused expression on his face. He was about to ask the dobe what he was looking at when their sensei arrived.
"Yo!" He said waving a little "Sorry i'm late, i had to help a dolphin." He said smiling, well it kind of looked like he was smiling but with that mask of his, you could never tell.
"You're late!!" Sakura and naruto yelled at him.
"Heh sorry" Kakashi answered chuckling. "Anyway today we're going to be sparring. Only taijutsu." He says walking away. Team seven following behind him.
Two hours later, sasuke found himself starring at naruto's butt.
Told you, you were gay.
He thought back still looking at narutos butt, then his roamed narutos whole body.
Since when has naruto's body been like THAT?
He asked the voice, looking at the small bead of sweat rolling down narutos bare chest and into his pants.
A while now, but mister "i'm-not-gay-but-asexual" wouldn't have noticed even if naruto was dancing naked in front of you naked.
the voices words conjured up images he never thought he would imagine.
He closed his eyes trying to erase those images.
WHY? you know you've always wanted him, it's just you never noticed!!
Yeah but it's naruto! he's my best friend and rival! how could i want him?
I don't know maybe it's the fact he's not like everyone else trying to impress you by being what they're not. He's your exact opposite, but he doesn't try to please you like everyone else does, he actually tries to put you back in line.
. . . How long have you been practicing that one?
For a while now, thank you very much.
Sasuke was sure that if the voice could, it would turn away and pout.
Stupid perverted voices and their insightfullness.
So does that mean i'm right? Oo?
Heh, maybe.
He thought tuning the voice out, smirking a little at its outraged cry. He was so intent on the conversation he was having with the voice that he didn't even notice naruto and kakashi talking conspirationally near a tree.
It was only when kakashi announced that training was over for the day because he wanted to go visit his sick dolphin did sasuke actually pay attention to what was happening around him.
"Okay so you guys can go home, but sasuke i need to talk to you." Kakashi said, his right eye going into a upside down U shape.
He waited until everyone was gone to ask what kakashi needed.
"well, i was thinking while you were sparring that, i haven't given you anything that will uh help you." Kakashi said with a twinkle in his eye.
"If it's icha icha paradise, i don't want it." sasuke said flat out turning to leave.
"wait sasuke trust me this will help!" kakashi said grabbing sasuke and then handing him a book with a blue cover.
sasuke glared at the book, then at the man holding the book.
"Will you leave me alone if i take it?" he asked, after receiving a nod he took the book and walked away mumbling about "perverted senseis", "hair that defies gravity" and "why he has gray hair(3)". Kakashi looked after him a second longer before poofing and disappearing.
After eating, sasuke felt bored. It was still to early to sleep but he decided to try anyway. he headed up stairs to his bedroom, entering into a cream colored room with random kunais around the place, a poster of itachi on the wall with kunai's sticking out and some other random scrolls. Taking off his clothes and putting on his pj's, he pulled the covers of his bed and was about to lay down when he heard a 'thunk'. He looked at the floor and there lieing innocently on the floor was the blue covered book Kakashi gave sasuke earlier that day. Having nothing better to do, he picked it up and layed in bed ready to read it, although he would never admit that to Kakashi.
He looked at the cover where he saw two guys standing back to back smiling coyly. He opened the book and skipped all the useless pages where the author talks. Then he saw the first page. After reading for five minutes sasuke wanted to put the book down, well actually it was a manga. Who knew his sensei read that. Then when he was about to put the book down, he saw one of the male characters of the cover kiss the other one. Thinking he was going slightly mad, he rubbed his eyes using his palm, then looked back at the page. It was still there. He turned the page and continued doing that, seeing the male characters kiss turn into a full blown make out. Then characters started getting undressed. Even though he thought he should put the book down he kept reading until it got into the sex scene. He stared wide eyed at the page, mouth slightly agape. He couldn't believe his eyes. He kept looking at the page then tilted his head to the side, trying to get a better view.
Better view of what may i ask?
the voice said with a smug tone. Sasukes cheeks automatically heated up.
Shut up! I just wanna see err what they are doing. It could be something else.
What else could they be doing? the horizontal polka? oh wait that's the same thing.
The voice said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
Oooooh feisty!
the voice said laughing.
Sasuke tuned out the voice and continued reading the manga.
Sasuke looked around, but saw nothing. Thinking something happened, he sat up. The manga that was covering his face slipped and fell on his legs. Looking around blinking, still half asleep, he didn't understand what was happening.
Genius my arse
The voice said
What's happening?
Fox boy is downstairs, he's been knocking on the door for 10 minutes now.
he said getting up, walking down the stairs heading towards the door, where naruto was calling out his name.
"Teme!! are you in there?" naruto whined.
rolling his eyes, sasuke opened the door and then glared at the dobe.
Said dobe was about to knock again when he noticed the raven. He looked him up and down blushing, then looking at sasuke's eyes blushing even more.
Sasuke raised an elegant eyebrow, now what has gotten in to the dobe?
"What do you want dobe?"
sasuke asked still glaring heatedly at naruto.
"Sasuke err could you um get changed?"
Naruto asked sasuke still blushing. Sasuke not understanding why he should get dressed, he looked down at himself. Oh that's why.
He looked down, noticing he was bare chest, with his pj pants riding low on his hips, showing all his muscles.
Hmmm interesting
the voice all but purred. Thinking that the voice might be onto something sasuke decided to taunt naruto a little. Resting his weight on his right leg, making his left foot step back a little and putting one hand on the door way while the other hand ran through his messy black hair, he asked with a sexy smirk:
"Why does the way i'm dresssed bother you?"
Naruto eyes widened and his whole face became flushed.
"yeah it does, now stop stalling i have important question to ask you!" naruto said gulping.
Sasuke smirked.
Maybe i do affect him. Think i have a chance?
With the way he's blushing i'd say you have more than a chance.
the voice affirmed. Sasuke taking that as the signal, leaned towards naruto and purred in his ear "what do you want dobe?"
He felt naruto stiffen before he murmured quietly. "Kakashi told me to see you and ask what yaoi was about."
sasuke blinked rapidly, before he smirked a feral grin.
"heh, i'll show you what yaoi is"
sasuke said before grabbing naruto and pulling him into the house.
From the outside you could hear loud protesting, silence, quickly followed by loud moans.
The next day, sakura was waiting for her beloved. Sasuke or naruto had turned up yet. Even Kakashi was on time although he was grinning like mad. Five more minutes later sakura could hear feet making their way towards them. She looked towards the source of the noise to see sasuke walking with his hands in his pokets next to naruto who was slightly limping.
Before she had a chance to speak up and greet the love of her life, kakashi spoke up.
"So? Naruto did you get your answer?" kakashi asked with a knowing twinkle in his eye.
Naruto was about to respond when sasuke placed his hand over narutos mouth preventing him from smirking.
"Don't worry kakashi I should him everything" sasuke said smirking down at naruto who had gone red and tried to hide hsi face in Sasukes hand.
"What does he mean kakashi sensei?" sakura asked.
Kakashi looked at his only female student then at Sasuke who had an evil glint in his eye. Thinking it would be best to let him answer kakashi poofed away.
Sakura starred at the spot where he sensei was before turning to her teammates, confusion visible in her eyes.
"well what i meant was that i finally showed naruto here what yaoi is and what happens when you have 16 years of sexual frustration."
Sasuke answered, before walking up to her and saying:
"I'm sorry sakura it would have never worked out between us, i'd have been blinded by your hair color." He said smirking. "Now naruto let's go see how high your voice can go." He said smirking taking narutos hand and running back to the uchiha mansion, where they were not seen for a few days.
Sakura stayed there watching after them, for all of five minutes before using her overly large forehead to think up a new plan. Well if she couldn't have sasuke-kun, might as well have a free show. She thought running after them, camera in hand.
Yup life is good when you're a yaoi fangirl.
Hehe that was fun. Now just to make everything clear, i'm actually the inner voice. I decided it would be much more fun to be the inner voice and not just the narrator.
So i hope you enjoyed so leave some reviews even if it's criticism, it always helps.
(1) It's sakura
(2) It's itachi, coz itachi means weasel in japanese
(3) Can anyone guess why he has grey hair? pervy smirk

There may have been no jewelry on the line for Thursday night's Class 5A quarterfinal playoff game between Mount Carmel and Destrehan, and no trophy made of silver or gold.
But you never would have known that by the way these two teams played each other. Defending state champion Mount Carmel and Destrehan, the team the Cubs beat to win last year's title, played hard against each other for 36 minutes, tied at 75 after the regulation 32.
But Destrehan, with vengeance on its mind, prevailed with a 90-85 win in overtime to earn its second consecutive trip to the LHSAA Girls Top 28 Tournament.
"It was epic," Destrehan coach Angi Butler said. "You know, it's funny. I've been up since 3 (a.m.) and I knew, I told the girls (Thursday), we're going to win. It's going to be close. It's going to be hard. You're going to have to play ball. You're going to have to dig deeper than you've ever had to dig. But this is a state championship for you. But you're going to win it."
The Wildcats (29-2), the No. 4 seed in the bracket, will play the winner of Saturday's game between No. 1 Ponchatoula and No. 8 Sam Houston at 4:30 p.m. next Thursday at Burton Coliseum in Lake Charles. Mount Carmel finished its season 22-9.
But seedings and records were meaningless Thursday. Both teams wanted to win — one for pride, one for revenge. And it showed as eight players hit double figures and, between them, the teams hit 10 3-pointers.
Destrehan sophomore Cara Ursin led all scorers with 34 points, including three 3-pointers. Brandi Mason scored 15 points, including three 3-pointers. Jasmine Morris and Jerlicia Morris both finished with 13 points with three 3-pointers between them. Taylor Daigs scored one goal — a 3-pointer.
Mount Carmel saw four players reach double figures. Paige Franckiewicz led the Cubs with 24 points and six 3-pointers. Kristen Nuss scored 21 points, as did senior Taylor Berry. Berry hit five 3-pointers in the game, but none of them was bigger than the buzzer-beater that tied the game at 75 and sent the game into overtime.
With 22 seconds remaining in regulation, Destrehan led 75-69. All the Wildcats needed to do was slow the game down from its furious pace and victory was almost assured. But the Cubs would have none of that. With 9 seconds remaining, Franckiewicz took the ball after a missed layup by Ursin and hit her sixth 3-pointer.
That cut Destrehan's lead to 75-72. Then Destrehan's Jasmine Morris was called for stepping over the line on her inbounds pass, giving the ball back to the Cubs with the clock ticking. Despite a block by Jasmine Morris, the ball went back to the Cubs, who put it into the hands of Berry, who sent a soaring 3-pointer into the goal as time expired.
In overtime, Destrehan let Mount Carmel take three four-point leads before regaining control. Jasmine Morris' 3-pointer with 1:11 remaining was the turning point, cutting the Cubs lead to 83-82.
The Cubs couldn't answer and Kiki Kenner was fouled while fighting for the rebound. Her second free throw put Destrehan ahead 84-83 with 58 seconds to play. After that it was the free throw line that saved the Wildcats lead. They made 6 of 8 over the final 40 seconds. Mount Carmel managed only a pair of inside layups.
After the game, the Wildcats did a Second Line to the goal and took turns snipping the net.
"Not only did we beat them, we've got another chance at (the championship," Ursin said. "And these players deserve a ring, as well as my coaches. They all work so hard."
The Cubs players were inconsolable as they accepted hugs from family and friends. None was more distraught than Berry, who threw herself into the arms of her mother, assistant coach Stacy Berry, after fouling out in the final seconds of overtime.
"We knew this was going to be a war," Mount Carmel coach Kevin McGlathery said. "That's what this team gave me all year. We set our goals high. We fell a little bit short, but I'm absolutely proud of them."

Redefining party lines
Christine Todd Whitman '68 talks politics, presidential election during visit to Wheaton
Speaking to a political science class on Wednesday, former New Jersey governor and longtime Republican Christine Todd Whitman '68 discussed the changing role of U.S. political parties, the need for bipartisan collaboration and the 2016 presidential election (and one especially polarizing candidate in particular).
Whitman, who also served as administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under President George W. Bush, currently runs the Whitman Strategy Group, a team of environmental consultants. She was on campus to deliver a public lecture titled "The Politics of Environment" and took the time to meet with students in two classes—"Political Parties" and "American Political System," both taught by Assistant Professor of Political Science Bradford Bishop.
Whitman began by explaining her own party leanings—as the child of two parents active in the Republican Party, she was immersed early on in politics, attending the Republican National Convention from the age of nine. As a young teen, she re-evaluated her position, ultimately deciding that she personally agreed with Republican politics, and not just because of her parents.
At the time, she said, the Republican platform was starkly different than today, with a focus on three key areas: fiscal discipline, a strong national defense and environmental protection. From her view, Democrats believed the way to get things done was from the top down; Republicans believed working from the bottom up was more productive.
"I kind of like the bottom up," Whitman said. "I like the idea of respecting the individual, and you show that by letting them keep they money they earn."
In those days, she said, both parties did not try to define their stance on every issue—instead allowing members to have differing views within the basic framework of the party platforms.
"The language you hear today is different," Whitman said. "It's, 'If you don't think the way I do, you're the enemy.' That makes it very difficult to reach a consensus."
Whitman said she still sees the value of political parties, which provide structure, but that they need to step back and not define how individual members should vote on every issue.
"We have to take back our parties," she said.
She pointed to two particularly contentious issues: abortion and climate change. The party view on both is currently very strict, but within each issue Whitman said there is room for compromise.
"With climate change, it's about you either believe human beings cause climate change or you don't," she said.
This view severely limits the conversation, Whitman said, adding that a better approach would be to ask in what ways do humans affect the climate, and what can be done about it?
Alyssa Gilman '16, a psychology major who is minoring in political science and Hispanic studies, said she was impressed by the former governor's insights and how they showed a different kind of Republican Party than the strictly conservative one that has so often been "vilified and derided" in the media.
"It was nice to have someone present the opposing side and do it really well," Gilman said. "It definitely made me and many others think and reflect on our own political beliefs, which is always a great learning experience."
Admittedly, Gilman may be a little biased—she's from New Jersey and, as she puts it, "the Jersey pride runs deep!" But she also appreciated Whitman's "well-crafted" answers to a variety of student questions, from her thoughts on property taxes and land conservation to whether there is too much money in political campaigns.
On the subject of the 2016 presidential election, Whitman expressed concern over the ways candidates were exploiting the anger and frustration many Americans feel as the income gap grows and they have to work harder to stay in the same place.
"People are understandably open to suggestions," she said. "It doesn't make them evil people; it makes them desperate people."
William Sweet '17 found Whitman's experience as head of the EPA especially interesting.
"As a biology major [and political science minor] who is passionate about environmental protection, it was encouraging to hear a politician talk about the role she has had in protecting our planet," Sweet said. "Governor Whitman responded to each student question with in-depth answers that provided rationales for positions that she has taken or explanations of experiences in government."
It was a conversation Whitman continued later that evening with a public talk in Hindle Auditorium. Sarah Hilton '16, president of the Student Government Association, introduced Whitman as a "role model in using a Wheaton education to better the world around us."
During the lecture, Whitman detailed why environmental protection is so vital, the political challenges of environmental regulation and the path for making progress.
"In 2013, in this country alone, 91,000 people died from bad air-related problems, such as heart disease, emphysema and other results of dirty air. That's almost three times as many people as died from car accidents," she said. "Think about the amount of time we spend trying to make our cars and our roads safer. We don't talk about the environment the same way because we don't always see it in the same light."
While a vocal minority continue to question the reality and causes of climate change, Whitman said, the majority of Americans agree that the planet is warming, that humans have played a role in the change, and that we must change our behaviors to mitigate problems.
The fact that some people disagree strongly with these views does not mean the country cannot make progress, she said.
Whitman noted that the EPA was established in 1970 during the Nixon administration, amid a great deal of political and social turmoil, due to public demand for action by the government.
"That should be a real reminder to us that things aren't going to change unless we demand it," she said.
She urged students to speak up and demand that politicians work together to find common ground and take action.

This review is from: Microsoft SIDEWINDER X4 Keyboard - Retail
Slim design
Quiet keys
LED is a plus
Width throws off the balance of the keys
One color scheme: Red LED on black keyboard
Other Thoughts:
I love this keyboard, and the anti-ghosting is fantastic. I can sprint forward in BF4 while reloading my weapon and marking targets all at once. I do wish that the macro keys were a little more easily accessible: having them that far off to the left makes them awkward to hit and it throws off the balance of the keyboard. I find my self hitting the macro switch button instead of the escape key often.

Stocks Drop After Bernanke's Bleak Economic Assessment
Tuesday morning's stock rally ran out of steam after Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke offered a bleak assessment of the U.S. economy.
The Dow is down 21 points, or 0.2%, to 12705, after earlier rising as much as 71 points in early trading. J.P. Morgan, Home Depot, Caterpillar and Johnson & Johnson are leading the biggest declining blue chips. The S&P 500 is down 3 points and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Comp dropped 8 points.
Here's what is spooking investors, from WSJ:
Mr. Bernanke provided no new direct clues as to whether the central bank would take fresh steps to support the fragile economic recovery, though he struck a more negative tone in describing the U.S. economic outlook in testimony prepared for the Senate Banking Committee.

I'm an avid Nordstrom shopper so always get excited for the Anniversary Sale. Such a great time to stock up on fall styles (and my favorite time of the year for fashion is fall!) They have a preview going on for cardholders right now so I had to do a bit of shopping. If you don't have a card, you'll be able to shop the sale on July 18th, so here's my picks from the preview in case you are interested!
- I'm a sucker for long sleeve dresses. This is the perfect dress to fab jewelry and other accessories too as it's a bit of a blank slate. I would do either a statement necklace or put my hair up and some glam earrings.
4. Loeffler Randall Clutch - I love the fall tones of this clutch and I am picturing it with all my fall outfits already. It comes in gold too which I contemplated getting as well!
5. Halogen Love Sweater - I got a few of these Halogen sweaters last year and love the new patterns that they came out with this year. These sweaters are so soft and fit a bit slouchy so perfectly casual yet stylish.
6. Alice + Olivia Wrap Sweater - I love wrap sweaters and that you can style them a bit differently depending on how you wrap them. Alice + Olivia is one of my favorite brands and I can always count on them for great quality pieces.
7. Phillip Lim Mini Pashli - my sister has a mini pashli bag that I love so when I spotted this on sale I had to scoop it up. It looks like it's sold out now but the regular size pashli is also on sale in multicolor and this pretty nude color.
The Anniversary sale is also a great time to stock up on some beauty items. They have a lot of exclusives just for the sale. Very excited about the nude eyeshadow palette even though I mainly just have nude eyeshadows, I just love these palettes that just put them all together and is easy to travel with. I buy the NARS cheek palette every Anniversary sale but it is hands down my favorite blush and bronzers.

Memories Revisited
A Custom, Classic Dark Ride
Astrid Lindgren's World – Vimmerby, Sweden
Opened in 2007
The Story
Based on a hugely successful Swedish television series written by the world-renowned author Astrid Lindgren, this unique dark ride carries visitors into the world of the Melkerssons and their summer adventures on Vi På Saltkråkan (Sea Crow Island). The series, which debuted in 1964, is so well-loved in Sweden that it is still re-run today. Here the somewhat eccentric family comes to life again; eliciting smiles and laughter from young and old alike.
The 20 scene ride moves from the ferry trip (with promises of sunshine) to arrival on the island drenched with rain; from the trials of a smoking stove to Uncle Melker teetering on the roof; from young Stina teaching her crow to speak to her telling tall tales. There's a bee attack, an attempt to build a water flume and much, more.
A Record Season
Astrid Lindgren's World reported an 18% increase in attendance during its 2007 season, with the opening of Vi På Saltkråkan. "In my wildest fantasy, I did not imagine we would have a summer like this," said Mikael Ahlerup, General Manager. "To bring a new Astrid Lindgren story to the park and to do it in such a spectacular way has proven to be a very good decision."

Honecker Quits Moscow Refuge for Hospital
Published: February 25, 1992
MOSCOW, Feb. 24— Erich Honecker, the former East German leader, gave up his sanctuary in the Chilean Embassy today and entered a hospital, a hospital spokeswoman said.
Mr. Honecker, 79 years old, is wanted in Germany on charges of manslaughter in the shooting of people who tried to flee East Germany during his 18 years as Communist chief.
Vitaly Churkin, a spokesman for the Russian Foreign Ministry, said Mr. Honecker would be allowed to return to the Chilean Embassy after his medical treatment. But he said Russia had the right to act if Mr. Honecker tried to board a plane for Chile.
"Our attitude to this problem is confined to the humanitarian aspect of it, and to the fact that at this point he is a guest of the Chilean Ambassador," Mr. Churkin said.
Russian officials want Chile and Germany to settle Mr. Honecker's fate between them, Mr. Churkin said.
Mr. Honecker took refuge in the Chilean Embassy in December after the Russian Government threatened to expel him. Chile, where Mr. Honecker's daughter Sonja lives, has offered to accept him on humanitarian grounds.
Germany has been seeking Mr. Honecker's return since he was brought to Moscow last March from a military hospital in Berlin. It seeks to prosecute him for manslaughter because of his policy of ordering border guards to shoot those trying to flee East Germany. More than 200 people were killed during the nearly 30 years the Berlin Wall existed.
A duty nurse, Raisa Tikhomirova, said Mr. Honecker was admitted today to the Botkin Hospital, a clinic that caters to foreign diplomats and business people.
Dr. Aleksandr Borodulin said Mr. Honecker was undergoing tests.

This morning's NYTimes carried an article about one of the elements of the US government's stimulus plan that may have a big impact on health. Buried within the massive stimulus plan is $1.1 billion dollars for "researchers to compare drugs, medical devices, surgery, and other ways of treating specific conditions".
This may not seem like a very radical new program, but it is. While the US government and private companies spend literally billions of dollars every year on research on the effectiveness of new drugs and other health technologies, very little is spent in the US on what is known as "comparative effectiveness research".
The big difference between this type of research and the current system is rather than leaving each individual developer in charge of studying the effectiveness of its own product relative to some standard treatment protocol (frequently nothing or a placebo), now research will be funded that can compare a whole set of treatment options and comment on the relative effectiveness of each approach. Many countries, in particular the United Kingdom (e.g. the NICE agency), do a lot of this type of research. However, the current structure of the US health care system means that each individual developer will not commit to doing such research because the costs would likely exceed its own benefit and because there is great risk you find out (and so does everyone else) that your product is relatively less effective than you hoped.
I loved this quote from the article:
"…Republican lawmakers and conservative commentators complained that the legislation would allow the federal government to intrude in a person's health care by enforcing clinical guidelines and treatment protocols."
What horror! When did clinical guidelines and treatment protocols become such a bad thing? Just because it is nice to think that I should have some choice in my treatment mean that I know best? I would rather walk into the office of a doctor who has some plan of action on how to treat me instead of having to rely upon some uninformed trial and error process. I get that people are worried that taking costs into consideration may mean that some treatments may become less available, but bear in mind that this process takes into consideration the effectiveness, so if the most expensive treatments also work the best, than they would likely be cost effective. At least I would now know what trade-offs are being made. After all, real life is always about trade-offs, in particular in the current economic crisis.Share on Facebook

Not the best of viewings. Everybody seeded preoccupied by their own thoughts, almost to the point where I think they missed a lot of information, as evidenced by the fact I had to explain a lot of it afterwards. Still, Azula had left her mark on the show, and everybody can already agree that she's an epic villain. By comparison, I think they found a lot of the Team Avatar scenes boring by comparison. I do think that not much attention was paid to certain scenes, making them unable to pick up on the subtleties of certain scenes. Maybe on the nest viewing, if there ever is one. I don't think they even noticed Azula's lightning bending. :(
However, I do think that 2 scenes in particular got their attention. One, Roku's revealing to Aang that if he dies while in the Avatar State, the Avatar cycle will break, and two, Zuko and Iroh's 'deserting' from the Fire Nation. Adding yet more to my mother's theory of Zuko being a 'wild card' in his loyalties. She knows more than she thinks.
Here's something else interesting. Since my family is now one with the Book 1 DVDS I bought, I'm going to loan them to my local postlady, who's named Aurora. She's a big fan of the Lord of the Rings, and other such epic stories, so I figure she'll enjoy the show. She also has a 7-year-old son who was obviously too young to enjoy the show, so both of them will be able to find some thing to enjoy, I' sure. She'll enjoy the complex story, and he'll enjoy the visuals and goofy moments, no doubt. And while I wont be able to chronicle her viewing, I'll be sure to leave updates as to what Aurora thinks as I get the information. That should be fun.
On a side note, I'm going to ask for the first 2 Books of Korra on DVD for Christmas gifts. If I get them, we may be viewing Korra after the New Year. That should be... Interesting. :/
Nothing more to report this time around, guys. Stay gold.

Sorry if title is flippant, I couldn't think of a better way to put it but I'd really like some help & advice. Will try and keep it brief, so sorry if I have to dripfeed later.
Basically I was raised Christian - always told 'it's your own choice what you believe' but I never really felt that it was, my parents always looked down on other religions as they were 'mistaken and going to end up going to hell' and things like homosexuality and sex outside marriage were always made out as really terrible things that would also guarantee going to hell. I always went to church with my parents as a child/early teen and the concept of hell was always present - ie, believe in God and do the 'right things' otherwise unimaginable horror awaits.
So now I'm mid-30's and I'm constantly so upset and confused about what I believe, or don't. I think I believe in God, because I'm indoctrinated by the idea of hell and obviously it scares me - but if I believe in God then am I a Christian and what does that mean?
I've never been sure I can feel a relationship with God - never had a 'WOW - that's me converted' moment and have done the 'stop now and read out this prayer and you're a Christian' thing loads, especially as a teen when I felt just as confused.
I'm divorced and I've had sex outside marriage, and married again - doesn't it say something in the Bible about that being just the same in God's eyes as having an affair?
What I truly feel drawn to is a feeling that things like homosexuality/sex outside marriage etc can be wrong but only if you're doing it out of some sort of unhappiness, ie hurting yourself doing it, that if you're truly happy and not hurting yourself or someone else then it can't be wrong. And I feel anyone with a true faith that lives their life in a good way (ie, really being good - treating everyone well, not just 'looking' good) will go to heaven/somewhere 'naice' when they die - but have always been told in church that that's wrong - you can be as good as you like but if you don't believe in Jesus then that's you done for when you die.
I keep thinking if I was brought up with Islam or any other religion I'd believe in that just as much so does that mean I don't really believe in God, it's just what I'm used to?
How do I try and find a belief when I've got the idea of hell (and avoiding it) so strongly stuck in my head? Surely I should believe in something because I believe it, not to escape some punishment?
How do I begin to reconcile all this into some sort of belief for myself? And if that belief is 'Christian' when there's so many flavours of Christian and disagreements about things like homosexuality, how do I know I'm right?
I would say that you really can't know so the sensible choice is to be the best person you can in your own way without worrying about the rules of any organised religion.
If god exists and is good and kind as religious people claim then he can't fault you for doing that.
And if it turns out at the end that god exists and didn't want you to be good to people.. well then you wouldn't want to be with him in heaven anyway.
I think I know how you feel. I was also brought up in a religious household basically C of E but frequent bouts of Methodism with strong evangelic tendencies plus a grandmother who went all the way and joined a small weird bunch of Pentecostals who went in for speaking in tongues etc.
We were threatened a lot with Hell and I was terrified of the end of the world happening at any time, really frightened. It was impressed upon us that God saw everything we did and we couldn't hide anything from him. Not much love from God and Jesus was crucified so that we could be "washed in the blood of the Lamb" and saved.
Now many years and 2 marriages later I have given up church and am not at all sure that I believe in the version of God that was sold to me.
The trouble is that I still want to pray and I don't know who or what is on the other end. I went through the Apostles' Creed in my mind and the only thing I believed was that there probably was a God and that Jesus probably existed but I don't think he was the Son of God and the rest I think is hogwash.
I really miss religion but I think it is like believing in Father Christmas, once you find out the truth you can't go back. If I went to church I would feel a hypocrite. I t upsets me when I think of all the people who through the years have prayed for me and tried to steer me in the right direction and yet I have turned out so bad. I f only there was a pill you could take that made you believe it all again.
Sorry I haven't been much help but I am just as confused as you.
I would say you aren't a Christian. Is that helpful and not too rude?
I know where you are at (as far as that's possible to say) because I have been brought up Christian, done my own thing in the same sort of way you have and then found my faith for myself.
I think lots of people see Christianity as a sort of social policy or moral code. It isn't. All the disagreements over homosexuality etc. are just a long way from the core of what Christianity is about. I don't think many Christians would dispute that whatever their beliefs on those social/moral issues.
I think you are right that trying to hold on to faith as some sort of insurance policy against hell/sin is never going to work. Christian faith has got to be about coming to understand who God is and the utter love of God for yourself. Romans 8v38-39 says 'For I am sure that neither death nor life, neither angels or demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.'
I don't think you do 'know you are right' I think what you discover as a Christian is that God is right. God is right in all things. God is love. God is perfect love in all situations. Love always wins out, even when we don't understand it or see it, in the end God's love ends the cycle of sin and evil. I think that verse suggests that we need to understand that nothing, not even our wrong thoughts about who God is and what God wants can separate us from God's love for us. You don't have to be the right kind of Christian. All you need to do is open your heart to God and understand enough of who God is to realise God needs to come first in everything.
I think on hell....hell is really the absence of God. It's when people have said they don't want to know God. God lets have their choice. That sounds benign. But actually if you know that God is perfect love, perfect justice, perfect mercy that's pretty scary. The closest place I can imagine to that, where (some) people have said actually they have no use for love, justice and mercy are places like North Korea. I'm still a hopeful universalist though....that is I hope that ultimately nobody chooses to say no to God.
I think most of the christians who post on here are very clear that the mainstream church does not believe in a fire and brimstone eternal suffering kind of hell, rather that they see it as simply not being with god. It is hard though, when something is so ingrained in you to let it go.
You have obviously arrived at a point where you are questioning the beliefs that have surrounded you your whole life. This is good, normal and healthy. How important is it to you to have a label? If you can manage without one it will give you the freedom to explore what else is out there - the different flavours of christianity, other major world religions, personal spirituality, atheism. There is no need to force yourself onto any particular path unless you find one that makes sense to you.
You may come to find that you are a christian, albeit a different sort than you thought, or you may find when you lose some pieces of the jigsaw the whole thing disintegrates. I have believed completely in one god, then many gods and now no god. Sometimes it is hard to move on, but it is actually easier than being dishonest with yourself. It depends on what you want really.
If the idea of hell is worrying you then try Rob Bell's book 'Love Wins.' He looks at the traditional idea of hell and finds not much in the Bible to support it.
At the moment the debates about homosexuality and women in leadership are pretty intense in some churches. In others you have female priests, gay and lesbian priests, readers, worship leaders, lay leaders. If you are on facebook there is a great site called 'Christians Tired of Being Misrepresented' which is for people who have come out of fundamentalist churches. It is an American site but worth linking to for their jokes and articles.
Maybe some exposure to the more mainstream and inclusive part of the church will help you with your questions.
You sound as though you've done lots of thinking & beating yourself up a bit but still have lots of great questions. I really recommend going on an Alpha Course. This is a brilliant, low key, no pressure way of asking & discussing some of the big questions in life with no question too hard, too stupid or to hostile. There is usually a meal first, a 20 minute talk & then a brilliant chance for discussion in small groups. I LOVED the course I did & it really helped me feel more sure about what I believed & even really happy about it. Lots of churches will be starting courses in Jan - google Alpha for all the details. Hope that helps. X
DefinietleyPeppa so sorry you find yourself so confused and faced with a God who is not represented as loving. I really hope you will find your way into the loving presence of God and a group of people who will be supportive and kind.
You may find some Fresh Expressions of church are more up your street, more relaxed and less pressurised.
drudgewithagrudge (great name) my heart goes out to you too.
I hope you will both find a place to call home, where you can pray and speak to God and mix with others without feeling the terrible pressures of worry about hell etc.
Although the Church of England gets a bad press sometimes it is generally a very tolerant place, where people can feel accepted and loved (that has been my experience of it). I really hope you will find a good place.
In the quiet of your own home/s I can certainly recommend Listening to God by Joyce Huggett.
Whatever you do, please do not give up on God, he is very nice and probably very very sad that we (the church) spend so much time debating and hating about gay marriage and the like and so little time genuinely loving and connecting to our neighbours and those beyond our walls.
Please let us know how you get on, faith is an adventure, I am sorry it has been represented to you in such a stale way and you have not found the joy in it.
I remember the moment it dawned on me that I had been spiritually abused by my parents. Ach maybe they didn't intend to but it was abuse nonetheless. I, and most of my siblings, had a rabid fear of hell. Our mother had regular migraines brought on precisely because of her terror of hell.
It makes me angry to read your OP (and also drudge's post); angry that you have been peddled some really toxic stuff in the name of God. It makes me think of the commandment to not take the Lord's name in vain and imo peddling this poison in his name is doing that.
Perhaps do an Alpha course to sort the wheat from the chaff ie what it's actually all about, not some religious fear-mongering; what Jesus did and why he did it etc.
God is lovely and over-eggs his loveliness at every turn. It is unbelievable that people can twist all that loveliness around and turn it into something so horrible. I'm so sorry that you/we have been fed this poisonous tripe. It is heartbreaking.
You might find the discussion boards on http://www.ship-of-fools.com useful.
Best wishes for your searching xx
I think that everyone on here has given you really good advice. There are a lot of people out there who have had a lot of junk thrown their way 'in the name of God' . There is a small number of us out there who know that he is brilliant and are sad that the church can often misrepresents Him. You can also just go in your room and ask him - that if he is real that he will show you. And if you really mean it he will. You might bump into a friend who has become a christian tomorrow or you will see a little sign - like an advert for an alpha course that you have never seen before. I promise that it may take courage to sign up for an alpha course but once you go through the doors the first night it is really really non scary. x
i think you need to talk to someone - a person with faith, an educated understanding of it, and trained in counselling. not a missionary, determined to convert you - nor a secular shrink who regards faith as primitive - and work through it all over some time. whether or not you come through it as a christian, i think you will probably ditch the fixation on hell as detrimental to your moral / spritual development. but you will need some sensitive, educated help to get through that. good luck.
I find the previous posters assertion that all medical professionals are unable to set aside their personal beliefs (or lack thereof) when working very insulting. I'm sure many are Christians and are equally adept at treating individuals based on the knowledge gained via years and years of training.
Op when I was going through my loss of faith I knew I had to do the thinking for myself although I suspect talking to Christian friends wouldn't have helped once I gone even a little way along the journey. I must add though that if I'd had intrusive thoughts of a religious nature that were causing me frequent distress I would have spoken to my GP as I would about any intrusive thoughts that were affecting my well being day to day.
I would recommend that you do a bit of studying of other religions. Find out what they belive and why. Also, try reading some of the many books which debunk religion.
You'll find most monotheistic religions have very similar stories, fears and perceived values but it may demonstrate to you that stories are all they are. No one can know for sure what happens when we die. No one can tell you. So why fear it?
Live your life according to your own values and enjoy it.
Have a look at The Hour of Power on Sky Atlantic. In my view, the Pastor gives inspiring sermons. You mention "things that guarantee going to hell" but Jesus came to save sinners (we are all sinners). For me, one of the most inspiring stories is that of Jesus preventing the stoning of an adulterous woman. Also, the story of him speaking to the woman by the well.

The total assets under management of all the fund houses put together has soared by an impressive 30% on strong inflows in categories such as fixed income, gold schemes and liquid funds, the industry estimates show
New Delhi: After two consecutive years of plunge, the mutual fund industry managed to register a smart turnover in 2012, with its assets base seen nearing Rs8 trillion with an increase of about Rs2 trillion this year, reports PTI.
As some wide-ranging reforms initiated by the market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) and the government are yet to translate into true business gains for the investors and fund houses, the industry is hopeful of even better days ahead in 2013.
The total assets under management (AUM) of all the fund houses put together has soared by an impressive 30% on strong inflows in categories such as fixed income, gold schemes and liquid funds, the industry estimates show.
The total industry AUM stood at Rs6.11 lakh crore at the end of 2011, while the same was about Rs6.26 lakh crore at 2010-end and Rs6.65 lakh crore in 2009.
The mutual funds collect money from investors and later invest the same into various market segments including stocks, IPOs (primary market) and bonds.
The industry expects net inflow into mutual funds to further pick-up in 2013 as the government and SEBI have expressed their intention to revive equity culture in the country and help channelise the household income into stocks, mutual funds and insurance sectors, rather than in idle assets like gold.
"The current market conditions and wide-ranging reforms announced by SEBI to re-energise the mutual funds industry would help the sector to channelise funds in the equity market," Sudip Bandhopadhyay, MD and CEO at Destimoney Securities said.
He also said that stock market and mutual funds stand to attract more investments from Rajiv Gandhi Equity Savings Scheme, after some initial hiccups.
"We have seen the AUMs increase largely in fixed income and gold schemes," Quantum AMC CEO Jimmy A Patel said.
Birla Sun Life Asset Management Company CEO A Balasubramanian said: "In 2012, the mutual fund industry witnessed growth in fixed income schemes. Within fixed income schemes, actively managed duration focused funds got inflows."
"In other words, debt funds attracted inflows due to stable to benign interest rate regime. Overnight rates more or less remained above the repo rate. As a result of this, most of the fixed income schemes including money market mutual fund schemes generated higher returns than Bank fixed deposit return," he added.
Inflows in income and liquid funds have contributed the most to the industry's rising AUM. With inflows of Rs89,302 crore, money market funds AUM surged to Rs1.77 lakh crore. A similar trend was seen in liquid funds, where inflows rose to Rs80,880 crore taking the assets managed by the fund to Rs3.87 lakh crore.
Similarly, equity funds' AUM rose to Rs1.65 lakh crore despite registering outflows of more than Rs9,300 crore. AUM of equity linked savings scheme too increased to Rs25,027 crore though it saw investors pull out over Rs1,400 crore this year.
Interestingly, equity fund managers of mutual fund industry has betted big on banking space with investments worth more than Rs42,000 investment, which was 20.59% of the industry's total equity assets under management.
Diversified large cap focused equity funds did well during the year, but few sectors such as private sector banks, MNC companies in the space of FMCG and select pharma have delivered substantially higher than even the index.
Gilt funds saw a rise in assets to Rs5,426 crore due to inflows of Rs1,567 crore this year as investors interest in the category has risen in recent months.
Incidentally, Gold ETF assets neared the Rs12,000 crore mark as the category has seen inflows of Rs954 crore. The rise in assets was due to inflows and mark to market gains in the underlying commodity.
"Gold AUMs have increased due to a combination of increase in the price of gold as well as continued inflows into Gold ETFs and Gold Fund of Fund Schemes. India has always been natural buyer of gold and with the advent of ETFs, more investors are looking at investing in this option (ETFs). Physical gold still retains its charm in India for ornamental purposes," Patel said.
In order to boost the mutual fund industry, SEBI has announced a slew of measures including expanding its distribution network and making investment simpler and safer, among other steps.
The regulator has made it compulsory for fund houses to make more disclosures in the interest of investors. They are also required to shift to the one plan per scheme model, moving away from the present practice of cluttering one scheme with numerous plans.
At the same time, SEBI decided that any service tax would be charged to the ultimate investor, not to the asset management company (AMC), as is the practice at present.
Although, fund houses would be able to charge their investors a little bit more as incentive for expanding to small cities, but they would also have to set aside a small portion of their assets for investor education and awareness.
Speaking about the next year, Balasubramanian said, "On the basis of change in fundamentals, opportunities would arise from sectors in telecom, power and Industrials as we move into the year 2013."
Max Life Insurance will distribute Rs130 crore as 'First Ever Special Bonus' for policyholders. For the eligible policies, the longer the policyholder has been with the company, the higher will be the percentage of the special bonus

Under the consent agreement signed by Rajaratnam, he would pay a total of $1.45 million, which includes $1.3 million in disgorgement and about $147,000 in prejudgment interest
New York: Jailed hedge-fund founder Raj Rajaratnam has agreed to pay $1.45 million to settle a civil lawsuit filed by US regulator SEC against him and India-born former Goldman Sachs director Rajat Gupta for their roles in one of the largest insider-trading schemes in US history, reports PTI.
55-year-old Rajaratnam, Galleon Group's Sri Lanka-born co-founder, has also agreed to waive his right to appeal this judgement, court papers showed.
US district judge Jed Rakoff approved the final judgement in the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) case against Rajaratnam, who is serving 11 years in prison for insider trading, and 64-year-old Gupta.
Under the consent agreement signed by Rajaratnam earlier this month, he would pay a total of $1.45 million, which includes $1.3 million in disgorgement and about $147,000 in prejudgment interest.
Rajaratnam has been ordered to pay the amount within 90 days.
The final judgement in the SEC's case orders Rajaratnam to disgorge his share of the profits gained and losses avoided as a result of the insider trading as well as the prejudgment interest on that amount.
The SEC's claims against Gupta remain pending.
The US regulator had filed its complaint in October 2011, alleging that Gupta had passed on to Rajaratnam confidential information he had learned as Goldman board member about Berkshire Hathaway's $5 billion investment in the financial giant in September 2008, as well as about Goldman's financial results for the second and fourth quarter of 2008.
Rajaratnam used the information he learned from Gupta to trade profitably in certain Galleon hedge funds.

Max Steel Movie Review :
Max Steel Watch Online Download Free (2017)
"A motion picture or a TV arrangement might be a decent approach to present an idea," says Jason Horowitz, senior chief of worldwide brand showcasing for the notorious toy autos, which spearheaded the utilization of TV ads back in the 1960s. "Be that as it may. we needn't bother with a 26-scene arrangement to get individuals amped up for Hot Wheels."
Independently, as an indication of Mattel's developing enthusiasm for getting its items up on the bigscreen, the organization is managing a real to life Hot Wheels motion picture that Joe Roth is delivering with Legendary Entertainment, after the venture sat inert (first at Sony in 2003, with McG appended to coordinate, before moving to Warner Bros. with Joel Silver as maker). A Max Steel film with Dolphin Entertainment set for discharge one year from now as an approach to resuscitate the activity figure line in the U.S. (another "Maximum Steel" arrangement as of now show on link station Disney XD); a He-Man pic is in progress at Sony (however "G.I. Joe: Retaliation" helmer Jon M. Chu as of late left the undertaking); similar to an element with Universal, in light of doll line Monster High, a noteworthy hit with youngster and tween young ladies.
For every situation, Mattel doesn't as a matter of course control the greater part of the imaginative. While Legendary and Sony are leading the pack on the no frills Hot Wheels and He-Man films, "Max Steel" is progressively a nearby joint effort with Dolphin. Still. By the day's end, there's no venture without Mattel's endorsement. However Voss glad to team up. "It so confounded making films. "We don't have to do everything. I'm anxious about that. I would prefer not to come to the heart of the matter where I have to do everything."
Changes in the way Hollywood works are helping organizations control their own predeterminations. As studios turn out to be more preservationist and corporate, they're depending on other individuals' cash to greenlight activities or falling back on simply taking charges for motion pictures that others need to make. advertising and circulation accomplices. Energetic for item to pump through their pipelines.
Wonder has been down that street, essentially authorizing rights to its top superheroes like Spider-Man and the X-Men to different studios, and gaining 5% or even less of the movies gross. However, through David Maisel, who is delivering Rovio's "Irate Birds" motion picture, the comicbook distributer propelled Marvel Studios and created the principal "Iron Man" as a free film — and delighted in the expansive influences of stock deals and everything that took after.
"These are tremendous stakes that you're playing with," says Maisel, who raised $525 million to bankroll Marvel Studios' first in-house slate of movies. "You need the experience, however you additionally require the money and the guts and certainty to utilize it."
It's significant that there are diverse levels of control. While Marvel and now Rovio completely fund their tasks, putting the majority of the subsequent benefits in their pockets, other IP proprietors will trade off with regards to imagination and greenlight power to pick up accomplices who go for broke and give away a part of the money related upside.
Maisel favors the "in with no reservations" approach. "Owning a motion picture, its continuations and all the ancillaries totally — that can be worth $1 billion," he says.

Since receiving a scholarship offer from USC this past spring, linebacker Scott Starr (Norco, Calif./Norco) has been counting down the days until he could officially become a Trojan. Now, as an early enrollee, that time is almost here.
"I get to move in on Friday," Starr said. "It's definitely going to be special. I have my freshman orientation on Friday and then Monday, I'm a student at USC. It's full go."
Starr said he is looking forward to joining his teammates next week, but added that he was able to spend a few moments reflecting on the past few months.
"Accomplishing my goal to play at USC is very special to me," Starr said. "I've had that dream since I was a little boy, and not a lot of kids get to fulfill that dream. That's definitely the biggest thing for me. Now I have more goals written out and I'm ready for the future."
Starr had one final high school moment this past week, when he participated in the inaugural Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl. Starr was chosen as a captain for the East team and started at outside linebacker.
"It was special to play in that first game, and to have been in the same room as those Marines was an honor," Starr said. "They taught us life lessons, and those were the biggest things I'll take away from that experience."
Only a handful of players participating in that game held offers from the Trojans, and virtually all of them were on the opposing West squad. But Starr found his way over there to leave what impression he could.
"Pretty much the only USC target I talked to was D.J. Foster (Scottsdale, Ariz./Saguaro)," Starr said, adding that he knew Foster from an official visit he took to Arizona State. "I gave him a couple nudges here and there."
With Starr set to enroll at USC next week, it won't be long until he is called upon for his first assignment as a Trojan. USC coaches will be hosting two huge recruiting weekends in January, and while Starr won't be able to take part as a visitor, he'll likely spend plenty of time working on his potential teammates.
"It will definitely be cool already having that experience of knowing how college goes and that lifestyle, and being able to tell that to recruits coming in," Starr said. "I'll be hosting a couple of my high school buddies. It might be a little weird hosting some of my friends, but I'll make sure to show them the whole experience."
