There will be more late night TV turnover between 2014 and 2015 than there was in the last 20 years. But out of all the changes that have been announced or already taken place, none makes me sadder than Craig Ferguson's impending departure from CBS's "Late Late Show." He'll be "keeping it classy all the way to Christmas" and then step down after 10 years on the 12:30am talker, so now would be a good time to give him his due at the Emmys.
Do you agree that Craig Ferguson is TV's best late-night host?

After Jay Leno's second ouster from "The Tonight Show" earlier this year, this time in favor of Jimmy Fallon, came David Letterman's surprise announcement that he will retire from "The Late Show" in 2015, to be replaced by Stephen Colbert, which means the end of Comedy Central's "Colbert Report" after eight years.
Ferguson's exit has been marked by much less drama and fanfare than those, and that may be just as well for the host, who has managed to stay out of the line of fire during the various late night wars and intrigues of the last five years.

Ironically, those very late night wars were the reason I discovered Ferguson in the first place. After Conan O'Brien vacated "Late Night" on NBC in 2009 in preparation for the launch of his own embattled and short-lived "Tonight Show," I glanced over at his time slot rival Ferguson and have been hooked ever since.
Ferguson brings an anarchic spirit to the late-night format, with an improvisational feel to his comedy bits and interviews, from the conversational monologues delivered directly to camera – he avoids the rigid setup/punchline format of his late-night cohorts – to the moment at the start of every interview segment where he tears up his blue note cards, announcing to his guest and audience his rejection of pre-planned patter. That results in occasional awkwardness with guests unaccustomed to going off-script, but it's magic with stars who are able to roll with the punches, like "Late Late Show" regular Kristen Bell.
'Tonight Show' vs. 'Tonight Show': NBC pits Jay Leno against Jimmy Fallon for Emmys
In 2010, the show introduced Geoff Peterson, an animatronic gay robot skeleton built by "MythBusters" star Grant Imahara and voiced and operated by Josh Robert Thompson. After about a year, Geoff evolved from a receptacle of pre-recorded one-liners to a full-blown sidekick and is now one of the most distinctive characters on TV. The interaction between the two is sometimes cooperative, sometimes like a competitive comedy duel that keeps both on their toes.
Thompson is also a skilled impressionist, which opens the door to other guest characters, like Morgan Freeman, Regis Philbin, and various original characters like Jerry from room service, and Alfredo Sauce, the leader of an unseen studio band called the Shy Fellas.

Ferguson's subversive skew of the late-night format – which also includes a second sidekick, Secretariat, played by two men in a chintzy horse costume – evidences his keen intellect, which the self-professed "late-night douche" downplays with self-deprecating barbs, but this thoughtful side reveals itself during occasional trips abroad, when he chucks his usual in-studio routine for loosely structured journeys around Paris or Scotland, exploring his childhood home, or waxing philosophical during candid conversations with the likes of Mila Kunis, David Sedaris, and the late Michael Clarke Duncan.
One of his best shows last year featured gay actor and activist Stephen Fry, with whom he discussed religion and human rights. Ferguson apologized at the outset for the episode's relative lack of comedy content, but he should never apologize for having a meaningful conversation with an interesting guest on a talk show, and in fact other hosts should try it more often – though I'm not sure how many other late night douches could pull it off.

Ferguson jokes that he's only able to get away with his signature weirdness because CBS doesn't know he's on the air, but I think he's only half-kidding. Undoubtedly, his under-the-radar time slot and lack of behind-the-scenes controversy have earned him a lot of free rein, which is why I was glad he wasn't promoted to Letterman's desk, for which there was a stipulation in Ferguson's contract. Moving up an hour would have brought with it pressure to go mainstream. (Fingers crossed for Colbert for the same reason.)
Now that he's leaving, there's going to be a lot less experimental whimsy in late-night network TV. CBS may decide to take a chance on another paradigm-shifting comic and leave him or her alone to create something unique, but I suspect we're likelier to see more setup/punchline monologues and pre-planned celebrity patter. If so, Ferguson's departure from late night is not only sad for his fans, but for the format.

Can Ferguson's "Late Late Show" break through in its last year? Let's consider the factors working for and against this Gold Derby Emmy MVP:
Ferguson has already earned an Emmy nomination for the show, albeit a long time ago – Individual Variety Performance back in 2006 – so the TV academy is aware of him.
He's not only a respected comedian but an actor with credits including "The Drew Carey Show," "Saving Grace" (a 2000 feature film he also wrote), and voice work in "How to Train Your Dragon" and the Oscar-winning "Brave," so he is familiar throughout the industry.
The news of his departure could bring newfound attention to his show, and voters will be aware that this may be their last chance to honor him.
Emmys smackdown: Stephen Colbert vs Jimmy Fallon
Operating under the radar is good for creative autonomy, but bad for getting awards.
CBS has been shut out of Best Variety Series and Best Variety Writing since 2009, when Letterman was last nominated.
Voters tend to nominate the same variety shows year after year, which makes it much harder for an outsider to break in.

Today I went to a bridal store for a dress fitting. Yes, that looks as weird to me as it probably sounds to you. No, I'm not getting married. As I've mentioned before, I'm producing the Bridal Guide that the newspaper will be printing next week. I started it around the same time that Mr. Blue Eyes and I broke up. Divine timing? Cosmic joke? All of the above.
I needed pictures of someone trying on a wedding dress for the Guide, so I kidnapped a young woman who works at the paper (who also happens to be teeny-tiny and gorgeous, so I knew she'd look great in photos!) and took her to the bridal store that's 45 minutes north.
Nerma was a great sport about it – she's still in college and has no plans to get married any time soon. She was the perfect person to take on this adventure.
I was nervous about walking into the store and looking at dresses – I didn't know how I'd feel about it. But we had such a good time! It was really fun to talk to the sales woman, watch Nerma try on the different dresses (she put on four), and take pictures. The first gown that Nerma put on was incredibly beautiful… it looked like it was made for her. The others – well, let's just say they weren't her style. The last one was a whole lotta dress for such a small girl and she said she felt like she was "drowning" in it. 🙂
At the end of the day, I had a phone session with the amazing Ken Kizer. As I talked about how much it hurts to have to let go of a relationship that I'd had so much hope for, he said something amazing to me. (I transcribed this from a recording of our conversation…)
"Most children go through an experience of betrayal by their parents. A lot of times we swear we'll never let that happen again. What that does is prevent us from intimacy. So many people go around trying to protect themselves from that kind of pain, which means they're never really available for true love.
So part of the healing then is to let your heart break. Just explode into a million little bitty pieces and then have the experience of noticing that it really didn't kill you. It didn't take away your ability to love. It didn't take away anything important about yourself. The sense of confidence and strength that will come out of this is priceless.
There's no other way I know to get there except to go through it – the whole way through it. Stare the pain and fear in the eyes and be okay anyway."
Going through this experience of heartbreak hasn't been easy, and I know that it will continue to take time. What I'm committed to is doing the grieving now – and doing it as fully as I know how – so that when it's done, it's DONE and I don't carry it into future relationships.
Here's the blessing of doing the Bridal Guide in the midst of heartbreak – it's making it very clear to me how much I DO want a commitment. It's something I've played around the edges of, but never let myself get fully invested in. Now I know. I won't go into a relationship just to get married, and I wouldn't do it with just anybody that asked. But when that right person comes along, I now understand that this is important to me.
And someday it will be fun to be the girl standing on the little podium in the bridal store trying on dresses.

Cleveland House On Fire [Life of Artist Manager]
Arrived in Cleveland for the Larchmere PorchFest where Red Rose Panic, a band that I manage, had a performance. The show went well and we attracted a large crowd. After the performance, we checked out some other acts then headed to a front porch where a female DJ was playing some songs. Shortly after that, we started smelling smoke coming from the house we were standing in front of. Next thing we knew, there was smoke coming from all windows of the house and we had to call the Cleveland Heights Fire Department. The firemen arrived promptly and put the fire out. We believe there was an overuse of power, which caused an electrical fire inside the walls of the house. Luckily, no one was hurt.

Life of Artist Manager: Producer Gets KICKED OUT The Studio!!!
Working with this new producer that reached out to me on Facebook. Met him at a coffee shop in Beverly Hills and heard a few of his beats. His beats had potential and he told me that he already had a few placements. He told me he was interested in me managing him and that he was interested in me being his agent, to shop his productions. I had to leave the meeting, but I invited him to my studio downtown Los Angeles, to work on some new music. After working with him for two days and noticing how defensive he became, while I gave direction and advice, I realized we wouldn't be able to work together. I wanted to finish the song that we had already created, sign off on it, and then part ways, but this is what ended up happening. Wish this guy the best.

Getting Knocked Down In The Music Business
In this video, I talk about failure and getting knocked down in the music and entertainment business. This line of work can be very rewarding, if your work begins to pay off, but what do you do if it doesn't pay off as soon as you'd expect? Do you quit and get a regular job or do you stay persistent and keep working on your craft until you reach the payday that you feel you deserve? These are questions that you need to ask yourself before becoming an entrepreneur and starting your own business or brand. Will you let negative situations discourage you or will you take a bad situation and turn it into a good one? In this video, I share my thoughts on getting knocked down.

Regardless of whether you use a digital inspection or not, you need to be thinking about getting your technicians tablets. If the tablets you purchase are put in a strong case and have screen protectors, they will last for awhile. I have some tablets in my shop that have lasted over two years now. There are $150 tablets you can start with, too (Lenovo). No reason to go out and buy $600 Apple tablets; dip your toe in the water first. Here are a few reasons I would suggest tablets for your technicians:
- If you are doing digital vehicle inspections, then this is a must to make it easier for them to complete the inspection.
- Even if you aren't using digital vehicle inspections, they can pull up Identifix, IATN, All Data Repair, Mitchell ProDemand, and Google (yes, your techs are using Google, too, to find fixes for vehicles; it isn't just your customers.).

Sea Duck Hunts
Successful sea duck hunting depends on many factors; we feel that mobility and flexibility are the two most important keys to any successful hunt. Here at Rising Sun we offer three styles of sea duck hunts, traditional ledge hunts, big boat, and layout boat hunts. By employing these various styles of hunting our guides are able to adapt quickly to any changes that may occur in the ever-changing weather and sea conditions. Our hunting style and location will be decided daily, based on sea conditions, wind direction and tide phase.
After reaching our predetermined location, our own oversized, hand carved decoy rigs will be set and waiting for the morning flights to start. Our primary target will be trophy Eiders along with opportunities for Scoters and Old Squaws as well.
When dawn breaks, groups of sea ducks start moving across the waters in route to their feeding areas. As birds start decoying the shooting can and will get exciting and fast paced.
Layout Boat Hunts
Imagine setting on the "X" with Maine's most experienced layout hunting outfitter, watching the sunrise over the horizon onto the gray steel colored Atlantic. As dawn breaks numerous groups of low flying eiders are headed into the decoy spread unaware of a layout boat. With wings set and feet down at ten yards, you rise, shoulder your shotgun and start your sea duck hunting experience. Whether you are a veteran waterfowler or a first timer, this truly unique and exciting "in your face" style of hunting for Eiders, Scoters and Old Squaws should not be missed.
Our layout boat hunts have quickly become our most popular hunt among our customers and for good reason. The up close and personal gunning this hunt provides, is amazing. Although this type of gunning may not be for everyone, those that have tried it say, "They just can't believe what they have been missing"!
Here at RSO we use Mighty Layout Boys Super Mag boats for our layout hunts. The MLB Super Mag is a Lake Erie style boat designed for big water applications. Compared to the classic, these boats are longer and wider, providing seaworthiness, stability and plenty of room for your comfort. These boats have proven themselves in handling most any sea conditions that we see here in the open Atlantic.
What to Bring
- Camouflage Outerwear (gore-tex or any waterproof material)
- Chest Waders (insulated is best after Oct.)
- Thermal Underwear
- Thermal Socks
- Face & Hand Coverings
- Thermos
- Blind Bag
- Shooting Glasses (optional)
- Spare Eye Glasses (if worn)
- Personal Medication
- Camera (photo opps.)
- Spare Firearm (optional)
- Firearm Cleaning Kit
- Steel Shot (1, 2 , BB) min. 2 boxes per day
- Federal Waterfowl Stamp
It's important to bring plenty of warm clothing. Remember to plan on dressing in layers with a waterproof shell to protect you from the elements. The fall and winter weather along the Maine coast can be damp, cold and windy. A memorable hunt can be ruined by inadequate gear and lack of preparation for the weather.
NOTE: Please purchase Non-Resident Maine 3-day small game license and Maine migratory waterfowl permit prior to arrival. Online purchase available at www.maine.gov/ifwPricing Information

The History of Oxygen Concentrators & Their Future!
Home oxygen therapy has come a long way in the past 300 years.
Oxygen concentrators dramatically changed oxygen therapy and how effective of a treatment it was.
The actual oxygen element wasn't discovered until 1772, but since then we've made leaps and bounds in how we use it.
Carl Whilhelm Scheele is credited for first recognizing oxygen as a chemical, which revolutionized how people thought about using oxygen.
After the discovery of oxygen it was about 100 years before people figured out how to use it in medical situations.
The first recorded use of oxygen as a medical treatment was in 1885 when Dr. George Holtzapple gave oxygen to a patient with pneumonia.
Within a few years, people had figured out how to store small amounts of oxygen to intermittently administer to patients. Crude, but effective, these were the humble begins of the powerful and modern oxygen concentrators we known today.
After this, oxygen continued to be used where possible, mostly to treat respiratory illnesses.
Modern Increases In Oxygen Use
Medical oxygen use didn't make any huge leaps until about the 1950's. It was then, people had figured out how to administer oxygen to patients traveling in ambulances, which became the first form of portable oxygen therapy.
It wasn't until the 1970's that oxygen therapy could be used in your home. Oxygen concentrators designed for home use were invented in the early 1970's.
Before this, home oxygen therapy was a quite a hassle. Home oxygen therapy at this time required using small cryogenic liquid oxygen systems or high-pressure oxygen cylinders.
Thanks to the invention of oxygen concentrators for home use, these cylinders and liquid oxygen systems began to phases out and the durable medical equipment industry started to boom heading into the 1980's.
Companies like Bendix Corporation and Union Carbide Corporation were early manufacturers of oxygen concentrators and contributed to the boom of the industry.
From the 1980's until now, oxygen concentrators have focused on two things: improving performance and shrinking. The demand for devices that suited active lifestyles skyrocketed after portable oxygen systems became popular.
Thanks to advancements in medicine, people are now prescribed oxygen therapy much earlier than before. This means there are a lot of young people who have been put on oxygen therapy who wish to maintain their active lifestyle.
Now, oxygen concentrators are small and convenient enough to be used while on an airplane, in the car or even on a bike ride! There tons of options available when it comes to oxygen concentrators, both for portable or home use.
Oxygen concentrators like the Respironics EverFlo are so simple, easy to use and are even quiet while running. This is pretty impressive considering we only found out about oxygen as a chemical in 1772!
What do you think the next 300 years of medical and technology advancements will bring to oxygen therapy? Make sure you brush up on home oxygen safety!

Guide to Playing Bakko in Battlerite
Updated for patch 1.3.
Bakko is a good melee champion for newbies. His playstyle is straightforward and easy to pick up, yet complex enough to allow for sick plays in dire situations. He has a bit of everything (damage, poke, survivability, control) so he has a decent margin for error, which means you can do well even while making mistakes.
But he isn't just a newbie champion. Bakko is quite strong across all ranks, so if you're looking for a main who can take you all the way up and stay viable the entire way, Bakko may be for you.
Basic Abilities
War Axe (M1)
War Axe is one of the weaker melee M1s, only dealing 9 damage when most others inflict 10. It makes up for it in two ways: first, each successful hit increases the damage of your next M2, and second, each successful hit reduces M2 cooldown. This means you can cycle M1 > M1 > M1 > M2 perpetually if you don't miss.
Axe and Shield
War Axe hits reduce the cooldown of Bulwark by 1s.
Axe and Shield is very good. It makes Bulwark much less risky to use for engaging and entering combat: two or three hits and the cooldown will nearly be reset, allowing you to use it again to escape if necessary. It combines well with Mobile Defense and Shield Bash!
Blood Axe (M2)
With a cooldown of 3.5 seconds, Blood Axe is pretty much spammable. This gives you a way to harass enemies from afar, especially ranged champions who you can't get close to. Don't forget that you get 6 energy for every successful hit, and that adds up fast.
If you're in melee range, prefer to wail on the target with M1s until you have charges before blasting them with Blood Axe. That's where your real damage comes from, and that's why the M1 > M1 > M1 > M2 cycle is so important. But against enemies with counters, switch it up with 2-charge or 1-charge Blood Axes, otherwise you may become easy to read.
The Red Axe
Blood Axe heals you for 4 health plus 2 health for each weapon charge.
The Red Axe is the only way Bakko can actually recover health on his own, which is essential if you want to stay in combat and keep offensive pressure on enemies. With it, a baseline M2 heals you for 4 while a fully charged M2 heals you for 10. That adds up very quickly when you're constantly cycling through 3 M1s > M2, and ultimately keeps your recovery health up.
Howling Axes
Blood Axe cooldown is reduced by 1s if the axe hits.
Howling Axes is arguably one of Bakko's weakest battlerites. Since Blood Axe gets most of its value with 3 M1 charges, and since 3 M1s is enough to refresh Blood Axe's cooldown, you don't need this when meleeing. Howling Axes only comes in handy against range-heavy comps that you just can't get near, in which case the spam lets you at least do something.
Blood Axe inflicts a 1.2s Fading Snare.
The fading snare helps you engage, helps you stick to targets, helps your accuracy with dashes and stomps, and ultimately disrupts the enemy team's rhythm. Hamstring is good, but competes with so many other useful Bakko battlerites that are just as good, if not better. It fits best against ranged enemies, allowing you to catch up even as they keep getting away.
Warlord's Axe
Blood Axe deals 2 bonus damage and an additional 1 bonus damage for each weapon charge.
Warlord's Axe may not seem like much, but the extra bit of offensive pressure is subtle yet significant. Not only is it useful for the accumulation of +5 damages over the course of a round, but nuking for 33 instead of 28 ends up dealing more permanent damage with every exchange. It also lets you use a single M1 > M1 > M1 > M2 sequence to break the orb, and this alone is huge.
Valiant Leap (Space)
Valiant Leap jumps to the target point and deals damage in an AOE. It's your ideal ability for closing gaps and engaging targets, but be careful with how you use it. It's your only guaranteed out, so jumping at a bad time can get you dead.
Wait for an enemy to burn one of their outs before you jump on them so you have a better chance of landing on them. If they end up wasting a second out to dodge your jump, then at least you come out ahead in cooldowns. You can also wait for an enemy to jump on you, then jump on yourself to catch him.
But again, Valiant Leap is your only guaranteed iframe, so try to kill two birds with one stone: if you need to dodge something, you may as well jump at a target.
Adrenaline Rush
Valiant Leap causes your next War Axe attack to deal 8 bonus damage.
I'm not a fan of Adrenaline Rush. Sure, it lets you stomp and M1 for a total of 39 damage, which quickly eats through recovery health and lets you start ripping into targets right as you engage. But because this extra damage is tied to Valiant Leap, you'll find that there are many times you leap but can't follow up with an M1, which means no value. (The Adrenaline buff only lasts 4 seconds.) If you want more damage, there are better options, like Adrenaline Slam.
Valiant Leap grants 33% damage reduction to self and nearby allies for 2.5s.
Bravery is situationally useful, particularly against bursty comps. With this battlerite, if you Valiant Leap and follow up with War Shout, you can actually think of your 40 health shield as a 53 health shield. This proves helpful when you need to save a teammate (e.g. Lucie) as it instantly relieves them of incoming pressure.
Heroic Leap
Valiant Leap deals 3 bonus damage and leap range increases by 20%.
Heroic Leap's bonus damage is negligible. If you're going to get this, get it for the extra range. With it, you can stand further back (outside of most ranged M1 distances) and initiate combat without having to risk getting hit first. Best picked on large maps like Dragon Garden, though I personally never use it. Unfortunately it doesn't extend the range of War Stomp, but the extra damage applies.
Bulwark (Q)
Bulwark is Bakko's signature ability: he can turn an enemy's attacks on themself, both ranged and melee attacks. Reflecting ranged projectiles is obviously good, but the stun against melee attacks is arguably better because it completely stops momentum.
To truly succeed with Bulwark, you must learn how to cancelcast. If a melee enemy hits you and gets stunned, you want to immediately put your Bulwark away so you can hit him back. Without cancelcast, you have to wait for the entire duration of Bulwark to fade — and by the time Bulwark goes down, the stun is done.
Shield Bash
Bulwark can be recast to perform a Shield Bash that deals 4 damage and inflicts a 50% Weaken that lasts 2s.
Shield Bash eliminates the need to cancelcast Bulwark, allowing you to immediately attack stunned melee enemies. The damage isn't much, but the Weaken is insane — since the target's potency is halved, you will come out way ahead when trading.
But the best part about Shield Bash is its dash component. Not only does it let you initiate from outside melee range, you can actually use it to dodge attacks and escape AOEs (but it isn't an iframe). This alone makes Shield Bash one of Bakko's best battlerites.
Mobile Defense
Bulwark increases movement speed by 60%.
Mobile Defense doubles as a gap closer and an escape tool. The fact that you can approach ranged targets without risk of getting hit (thanks to the reflect) makes this a must-take battlerite against champions like Ashka, Jumong, and Iva. In fact, it even makes it easier to save teammates from heavy projectiles like Fire Storm or Steady Shot: run in between and reflect them back to the enemy. Mobile Defense pairs extremely well with Shield Bash.
Shield Dash (E)
Shield Dash serves so many purposes: dodge projectiles, escape AOEs, reposition the middle orb, interrupt enemy casts, or pin enemies to the wall as setup for other abilities. The cast time is fast and the damage isn't bad either. The hard part is "thinking in walls" since most of its utility comes from wallbangs. You have to play around walls!
The stun duration when slamming an enemy into a wall isn't long enough to reliably set up Heroic Charge, but it's still good for interrupting spells. A hit without a wall will interrupt casting, but a hit into a wall will cancel channels and other effects.
Shield Dash can be a great way to engage without wasting Valiant Leap, particularly if you grab the Raging Ram battlerite which reduces its cooldown. You can also tackle enemies away from a teammate to put some distance between.
Dizzying Dash
Shield Dash inflicts 15% Snare for 2.5s. Pushing an enemy into a wall deals 6 bonus damage.
Useful for sticking to targets, and the extra damage isn't that bad either, but not quite a must-pick because the snare is pretty weak and you probably aren't wall-banging targets often enough for that bonus damage to add up. Bakko has stronger and more reliable options elsewhere.
Adrenaline Slam
Shield Dash causes your next War Axe to deal 8 bonus damage.
Adrenaline Slam is much better than Adrenaline Rush if you need extra damage when engaging. Shield Dash is more reliable than Valiant Leap at getting you onto a target, and you're more likely to use Shield Dash to get into combat instead of out, and you can cast Shield Dash more often if you pair it with the Raging Ram battlerite.
Of course, you could use Adrenaline Slam and Adrenaline Rush for even more damage, but keep in mind that the two do NOT stack! If you do this, be sure to M1 between Valiant Leap and Shield Dash so you get full value from both battlerites.
Raging Ram
The cooldown of Shield Dash is reduced by 1s and travel distance is increased by 25%.
Raging Ram is extremely good for two reasons. First, it brings Shield Dash's cooldown down to 7 seconds so it cycles faster than most mobility abilities (which default to 8 seconds), meaning you can chase down fleeing enemies and you're more likely to have it ready when you need to dodge attacks. Second, the extra range means you can engage from further out and you're more likely to nail those wallbangs. I consider it a must-take.
Energy Abilities
War Stomp (EX-Space)
War Stomp is just like Valiant Leap except it gives up a bit of power for more control: it only inflicts 8 damage but Incapacitates enemies for 2.5 seconds. This makes it an excellent choice for peeling, especially when there are two melees clumped on one teammate. It also has a faster travel time than Valiant Leap, so enemies have less time to react.
Use it during 1v1 situations! The disable is long enough to let you steal the middle orb or set you up for a finishing combo.
Shield Slam (EX-E)
Shield Slam is a dash that punts the target away and inflicts a 2.5 second Fading Snare, which is more than enough to peel an enemy off a teammate. But seeing as how the distance makes you unable to attack, you may be better using Shield Dash so you can peel and engage in one move.
Shield Slam is really good during Sudden Death. If the enemy is at the edge, you can bump him out and he'll either waste an out getting back in or take a few ticks of vortex damage. Either way, you come out ahead. Follow up with an M2 (with the Warlord's Axe battlerite) to really ruin their day.
War Shout (R)
War Shout temporarily turns you into a mini-boss. The high-value shield is the best in the game, allowing you to tank a bunch of non-permanent damage while simultaneously putting out pressure. It gets even better with the Rampage battlerite.
Use it just as you engage so you can come out ahead in trades. The cast time of War Shout is near-instant, so you can also rely on it to block big-damage nukes when you're low on recovery health. And don't forget that it's AOE, so save your teammates with it!
War Shout increases attack speed of War Axe and Blood Axe by 33% as well as movement speed by 15% for 4s.
Rampage is pretty sick. War Shout already puts you at a big advantage when trading, but now you get a big boost to DPS and extra chasing power. With Bakko's in-your-face design, this one synergizes well with his playstyle and turns you from a mini-boss into an actual boss.
Just be careful against counter champions: since you have to M1 or M2 to get value, smart enemies will know that War Shout = M1 spam and counter accordingly.
Heroic Charge (F)
Heroic Charge is an unstoppable long-range dash that deals damage to anyone you hit, carries them with you, and deals a second burst of AOE damage at the end. This thing goes through pretty much everything, including counters, d-barriers, and other dashes. The only way to escape it is with an iframe. Use it as a finisher on targets with no outs.
But Heroic Charge is risky. The cast time is technically 0.1 seconds, but it has a long charge-up animation and an audio cue that's extremely easy to read. Missing a Heroic Charge doesn't just mean burning all your energy — you'll likely end up on the other side of the map and have to waste valuable time getting back to the action.
Mammoth Stomp
Heroic Charge stun duration increased by 0.75s.
Mammoth Stomp lets you follow up Heroic Charge with an M1, then Shield Dash into a wall to refresh the stun (if you have Wall Slam), and get in a few more M1s. But how many Heroic Charges you actually get in a round? One, maybe two. And when you do, this battlerite doesn't actually offer much value. If you win with this battlerite, you'd win without it. Get something else instead.
Increases your maximum energy by 25% and energy gained from abilities is increased by 10%.
Inspiration is very good on Bakko because he relies so heavily on War Shout to stay alive and War Stomp to control the flow of rounds. The faster energy gain lets you spam both more often, but perhaps more importantly, the extra energy meter means you can set up your own Heroic Charges using War Stomp. That's HUGE.
Overall Playstyle
Bakko is pretty straightforward: you're at your best when you're right up in the face of a target and putting out tons of pressure. Your defensives are there to make offensive pressure easier.
Often you can start rounds with M2 poking. The fast cooldown means you can get two or three pokes before any real fighting goes down, and it helps build energy and dismount enemies. But with the Mobile Defense battlerite, you might opt to quick-engage enemies who step a little too far away from their team.
A lot of your damage comes from charged M2s, so try to use Shield Dash to engage targets (or wait for them to engage you), build up charges with M1, then pop M2 on targets who don't have much recovery health. Over the course of a round, the permanent damage adds up fast. The 3 M1 > M2 cycle puts out a lot of pain.
Remember to play around walls. Not only for the extra wallbang damage on Shield Dash, but for the positional advantage. Once Dashed, an enemy has no choice but to walk out from between you and the wall (which gives you time to get in several M1s) or use an out (which you can follow up with Valiant Leap to stay engaged).
If you can build up a fully charged M2 and hold it, Shield Dash a target into a wall and immediately follow with the M2 for a guaranteed hit.
With the Inspiration battlerite, a full energy meter lets you set up Heroic Charge with War Stomp. If you can catch two enemies in the Stomp, try to walk around and line them up so that Heroic Charge hits both of them. Unavoidable and huge.
Valiant Leap is one of your best initiators, but it's also your only iframe, so there's a tough balancing act between using it offensively and defensively. Take note of your matchups: if the enemy has big ultimates (e.g. Ashka's Infernal Scorch) or explosive debuffs (e.g. Croak's Venom, Lucie's Deadly Injection), then you may want to reserve it for those moments.
And unless you're hurting for health, try to use Valiant Leap offensively even when using it to dodge. For example, if you're trying to iframe Croak's Venom, you might as well stomp on him while you're at it.
Consider using Shield Dash for dodging when you can. The distance is long enough to escape most AOEs, and you can dodge quite often if you have the Raging Ram battlerite. Again, unless you're hurting for health, try to be offensive as you dodge (e.g. escape Pestilus's Egg AOE and tackle him in one move).
You must learn to cancelcast. Not only because it lets you make full use of Bulwark, but you can also fake M2s to bait counters, d-barriers, and outs.
Use War Shout and War Stomp as often as necessary, even if it means you never have energy for Heroic Charge. These two defensives offer way more utility and will regularly turn rounds for you. War Shout lets you go ham (especially with the Rampage battlerite) and War Stomp gives you time to reset and/or burst one target down.
Orb Control
Bakko is pretty good at orb control.
Shield Dash collides with it, so tackle the orb towards your team and away from enemies. On some maps, you can tackle the orb into a wall for damage and pop it even faster. Try to start zoning enemies out of mid area about eight seconds before the orb spawns, which can be done with M2s and Bulwark. Easier said than done, but Bakko has enough threat for it.
What if you lose mid area? War Stomp. The fast cast time and travel time make it hard to avoid, so use it to isolate anyone trying to kill the orb, then steal the last hit. If you have no energy, use Valiant Leap's damage to last hit the orb, then turn around and start pounding away on an enemy. Or if you need to play it safe, pop it with a fully charged M2.
Build Ideas
Standard Bakko
- The Red Axe (M2)
- Mobile Defense (Q)
- Shield Bash (Q)
- Raging Ram (E)
- Inspiration (Perk)
There are many variants on Standard Bakko, but they all share the same base: The Red Axe for sustained survivability, Mobile Defense for engaging and escaping without wasting your core outs, and Shield Bash for the weaken and the dash for engaging or dodging. Beyond that, I like to get Raging Ram because it further increases how often you can engage or dodge. Inspiration lets you spam War Stomp and War Shout.
Raid Boss Bakko
- The Red Axe (M2)
- The Warlord's Axe (M2)
- Bravery (Space)
- Shield Bash (Q)
- Rampage (R)
This one is more aggressive than Standard Bakko, built around dealing as much damage as you can while taking as little as you can and minimizing your need to disengage. When you spot a vulnerable target, engage with Valiant Leap. Every single battlerite exists to increase your trading efficiency: cycle Bravery, Shield Bash, and Rampage while landing every fully charged M2 to keep swinging in your favor.
Bakko has a lot that newbies will like: high mobility, spammable ranged poke, a big shield to absorb damage, and a straightforward ultimate that obliterates targets. He's versatile and hard to play poorly, plus he's great fun. All the makings of a great champion.

Technology change has happened both quickly and imperceptibly. The very first connections between computers, nearly 50 years ago, have been transformed into a wave of connectivity that covers the planet. New devices and innovations have given way to harnessing the power of connectivity and functionality unimagined. With these have come challenges with laptop batteries. LUCAS AJANAKU writes on how to cope with these challenges.
The experience could be harrowing, especially when laptop battery starts malfunctioning; when a 10-hour battery life device depreciates to serving for one hour or less.
Insight from the Research and Development Unit of Yudala, Nigeria's fastest growing composite e-commerce outfit, shows that while laptop batteries often depreciate over time, misuse or wrong usage often makes this to happen within a short period and at a time when the user should still be deriving optimum utility from the laptop battery.
According to research, laptop batteries are usually made from lithium-ion: a lightweight, high-power battery often used in computers and mobile phones. Lithium-ion batteries come in various shapes, although a flat rectangle is most common in smartphones. It is lighter than the nickel cadmium battery and the nickel metal-hydride battery, thus accounting for its lightweight nature. Lithium-ion batteries work by the movement of lithium ions through a membrane and are clearly different from lithium batteries.
Whereas lithium batteries contain lithium metal and are not rechargeable, lithium-ion batteries do not contain lithium metal and are rechargeable.
However, lithium-ion batteries do not last forever. Each lithium-ion battery will have an average of 600 charge cycles and will work optimally for between four and five years without a drastic depreciation on battery life. Hence, the laptop battery should serve well for at least for between three and four years depending on how frequently it is used and recharged.
Research shows that frequent travelers only get a couple of years out of their laptop battery because they tend to charge intermittently and keep their laptop unplugged when on the move which kills the laptop battery faster.
However, to get maximum life out of the laptop battery, the following tips from Yudala will go a long way in helping you save the cost of investing in a new battery at short intervals:
Eschew putting laptop on soft surfaces
It is easy to place your laptop on your thighs or bed while working at home or during your rest time. Many users are guilty of this. However, if you need your battery to last long or have a stronger life span, it is advisable to place the device on hard surfaces such as tables or desks in order to avoid over-heating.
Research has shown that heat is one of the biggest obstacles to battery's longevity because the laptop fan can't circulate air properly when the machine is placed on a soft surface.
Storage of laptop battery
This cannot be over-emphasised. It is advisable to store laptop in a cool place with less heat. This tip is directed especially at people who keep their laptops in their cars where it can get really hot when it's sunny. Laptop batteries do not work well with heat and might stop working if exposed to excessive humidity. Research shows that, if a stored battery is not charged, it starts to lose it energy and might get damaged.
Also, for travelers who leave their laptops behind, it is advisable to store the battery with a 40 – 60 per cent charge instead of a full charge because study has shown that fully charged batteries depreciate faster than half-charged batteries.
Do not leave laptop dead before plugging
There is said to be a problem called 'battery memory' which, causes batteries to 'forget' their full charge capacity and start charging at lower levels; charging to 100 per cent and discharging to 0 per cent. Current research indicates that this problem doesn't exist anymore and we have the modern lithium-ion battery to thank for that. It is important to point out that the problem here is not over-charging your laptop, which makes us believe that letting your battery charge more than 100 percent will make the battery wear out faster. A research study by Battery University shows that, modern devices are designed to stop charging at 100 per cent hence, keeping them plugged in doesn't impact the battery's lifespan. However, a lot of us wait until our laptop dies before we plug it in, which isn't good for our battery. Therefore, avoid letting your battery drain and discharge below 20 per cent, else, it would reduce the charging capacity of your battery.
Show love to laptop
This starts with your battery. Your battery is the powerhouse of your laptop. Abandoning your laptop battery and just letting it do its job without paying much attention to it won't cut it. Make sure to take care of the battery contact points; the battery contact connects the battery to the laptop. If the contact point gets dirty or damaged, it may reduce or disrupt the flow of power to the laptop. If you have a removable battery, you can carefully wipe your battery with a soft cloth to get rid of dust. However, you have nothing to worry about if your laptop battery is sealed.
Update laptop
As underrated as this may sound, an outdated hardware may reduce the performance of your laptop thereby affecting the laptop battery. The cells in laptop batteries degrade over time, and it is totally normal for old laptop batteries to hold charge less than an hour. Current laptops can achieve up to 10 hours of standard usage because of the software that comes with the perk of a new laptop. Henceforth, upgrading your laptop hardware will significantly improve your laptop battery life.

Dr. Keller's principle research interests concern mechanisms of growth and development control in plants. In particular he is interested in how the auxins (a class of morphogenic hormones) effects various aspects of plant growth.
His dissertation project, examined the trans-membrane ion flux effects of auxins on oat coleoptile cortex cells. Auxin was found to activate both K+ uptake (Keller CP and Van Volkenburgh E, 1996a; pdf) as well as a transient Cl- efflux (Keller and Van Volkenburgh, 1996b; pdf). In a post-doctoral project he discovered that tobacco excised leaf tissues are auxin sensitive (Keller CP and Van Volkenburgh E, 1997; pdf) but grow in response to the hormone by a mechanism that differs from that found in stem and coleoptile tissues (Keller CP and Van Volkenburgh E, 1998, pdf)
Work in his lab has primarily focused on the role of auxin in controlling leaf expansion in the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) and in Arabidopsis . Increases in leaf auxin in intact plants was found to inhibit leaf expansion by a mechanism not involving induction of ethylene (another plant hormone well known to be increased by auxin) (Keller et al., 2004; pdf). In vitro, however, auxin has been found to have the opposite effect. Excised leaf strips respond to auxin with increased growth (Keller, 2004). Possible explanations for the opposite effects of auxin in intact and isolated leaf tissues are being investigated.
Dr. Keller is also involved in a collaborative project with Dr. Barkosky to investigate the primary mechanism of allelopathic growth inhibition. Allelochemicals are compounds released by some plants into the soil environment resulting in reduced growth by other plants. The target species typically exhibits reduced photosynthesis and growth probably as a result of perturbations occurring at the level of the root cell membrane. Results to date show that the known allelochemical hydroquinone results in a sustained depolarization of bean root cell membrane potentials at concentrations at least as low as 10 µM. Root membrane depolarization correlates with depressed plant growth as variously measured (Mazurek et al., 2004).

Indiana to Tax Out of State Municipal Bonds Beginning in 2012
On May 10th, 2011, Indiana Governor, Mitch Daniels signed two tax bills, one bill includes a provision to tax municipal bond interest from bonds issued from states other than Indiana.
Ind. Code § 6-3-1-3.5(a)(33) as added by L. 2011, P.L. 172, §53, eff. 01/01/2012. "Adjusted gross income" defined adds back to your Indiana income the amount excluded from federal gross income under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code interest received on an obligation of a state other than Indiana, or a political subdivision of such a state, that is acquired by the taxpayer after December 31, 2011.
Certain municipal bond interest is generally not taxable for federal income tax purposes and as the law now stands will continue to be tax free for federal purposes. Under prior Indiana law, Indiana considered all municipal bond interest (whether an out of state bond or not) tax free for federal purposes to be tax free on your Indiana income tax return. Many states have always taxed out of state bonds, now Indiana joins that list. An example would be if an Indiana resident owns an Illinois municipal bond and an Indiana municipal bond, the interest from both bonds would have been free from Indiana income taxes. Now, if an Indiana resident buys an Illinois municipal bond after December 31, 2011 the interest received will be taxable on the Indiana income tax return. Your existing out of state municipal bonds are grandfathered.
The current Indiana adjusted gross income tax rate is 3.4% plus a county tax rate that depends on your county of residence as of January 1st each year. The county rate can be in excess of 2%. For a Morgan County, Indiana resident the total state and county rate would be 6.12%. $10,000 of out of state municipal bond interest that was previously tax free would have a state tax burden of $612.
What does this potentially mean to the Indiana municipal bond investor? First, we should see an increase in the demand for Indiana municipal bonds from Indiana residents. The impact all things being equal (i.e., credit quality, etc.) should be to drive yields on Indiana bonds down, resulting in appreciation of existing Indiana Bonds. However, given Indiana's low income tax rates as compared to states with much higher rates the impact of this additional demand may not be significant. So don't throw your out of state bond purchase decisions out with the bath water, without some careful analysis. Non-Indiana municipal bonds provide geographical diversification, it's not only how much of your income you keep on after-tax basis, return of principal matters for the municipal bond investor.
From a tax return preparation perspective, your Indiana return will now be a little more complicated due to the add back of municipal bond interest, municipal bond interest will be separated between Indiana and non-Indiana interest. Municipal bond mutual fund investors will have to dig into the details of the tax reporting to determine how much of any of the income is attributable to Indiana bonds.
This is probably a good time to review your municipal bond portfolios. Not only as a result of this law change, but due to other risks and opportunities associated with municipal bonds in general.
Call risk, credit risk and interest rate risk in your portfolio should be strongly considered in this analysis. With potentially rising tax rates looking into 2012 and 2013 ( as part of the healthcare bill there will be an additional 3.8% surtax on investment income for some taxpayers beginning in 2013) and our country's aging demographics, more households will be looking to invest more for income, resulting in more demand for income producing investments such as bonds. Being pro-active by actively managing your bond holdings for income and total return, much like you manage your stock portfolio makes a lot of sense in this tax and economic environment. The days of buying bonds, putting them away in safe keeping and clipping the coupons until your bonds mature or are called, are in the past.
Give us a call to schedule a portfolio review.

BUILDINGS designed to meet the demands of new technology are becoming an increasingly important asset class at Mapletree Industrial Trust.
The trust, which reported its full-year results yesterday, noted that its high-tech buildings segment has grown from 18.9 per cent of its portfolio to 23.5 per cent by valuation.
This segment has had two major boosts recently.
In March, international data centre operator Equinix opened a flagship facility in Ayer Rajah that was developed by the trust.
It has also begun redeveloping a Telok Blangah flatted factory cluster for Hewlett-Packard.
The project, which is set to be completed in 2017, will feature two new high-tech buildings housing manufacturing, product and software development facilities.
Such high-tech buildings comprise eight of the trust's 41 property clusters.
It said demand for industrial space that can meet the technical needs of higher-value manufacturing activity is rising, adding that high-tech buildings will drive growth.
The other segments in the trust's portfolio are flatted factories, business park buildings, light industrial buildings and stack-up/ramp-up buildings.
Net property income for the 12 months to March 31 rose by 6.5 per cent to $228.6 million while distributable income per unit (DPU) increased by 5.1 per cent to 10.43 cents.
The trust attributed the performance to its stable and diversified portfolio of 84 industrial properties that enjoy an average occupancy rate of 90.9 per cent.
Meanwhile, Mapletree Commercial Trust (MCT), whose portfolio of four properties is headlined by mega mall VivoCity, increased its DPU by 8.5 per cent to eight cents for the 12 months to March 31.
Net property income increased by 8.4 per cent, from $195.3 million last year to $211.7 million.
The bulk of that came from VivoCity, which accounted for $135.6 million of net property income.
In spite of "significant volatility" in interest rates, MCT's manager said the trust's portfolio is expected to stay "relatively resilient".

Have I mentioned I have a sweet tooth? Or that I hate throwing food away? Well I do. Tonight, I needed something sweet. And I had some over ripe bananas that were about to take a turn for the worst.
I'm also trying to keep my diet as clean as I can before the holidays prove to get the best of me. I did really well today on my portion control, eating clean and sticking to my meal plan. So I don't want to screw that up! But I seriously need some sweets!
Thus, these banana muffins were born. They're just sweet enough, a little crunchy (if you add nuts) and are perfect to freeze for a quick breakfast (or dessert!) another day.
I added chocolate chips and pecans to mine, but you're welcome to leave both out if you like. Or try walnuts, or even get crazy with some dried cranberries!
Try the recipe and let me know how you spin it to your liking. I'd love to try new options!
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 1/4 cup prepared applesauce (optional but it adds moisture)
- 1/3 cup egg whites
- 2 tbsp softened butter
- 3 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup plain flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350*. Line muffin pan with baking cups or spray with cooking spray.
Mash bananas, then add applesauce, egg whites, butter, honey and vanilla.
In a separate bowl, combine flours, baking powder and soda and salt. Stir together, then add to the wet ingredients.
Mix until combined, then stir in your add ins (chocolate chips and pecans in this recipe).
Pour into muffin pan. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when pushed in the center of a muffin.
Let cool completely and enjoy! Or pry your impatient fingers in, burn your tongue and not taste anything for 20 minutes. Like I did….

Various collaborations with architects and designers throughout his academic studies at the European Institute of Design Milano led him to found Dedra, a multidisciplinary design and visual arts channel joining young creative people with different skills, living in different geographical areas (Milan, Italy – Urbino, Italy – Brighton, UK). His works have been exhibited at the Fuorisalone in Milan and, immediately after his degree in Interior Design, he started to collaborate with Cappellini for installations, interior projects and visual communications. The most intimate root of his work can be found in his curiosity and transversal interests. He feels the impelling urge to tell stories that always lead individuals to identify themselves in his creative works. His aesthetics can be summarised as an attentive debate between a formal impulsiveness and the research on the limits of materials and the application of new technologies.
