Homeland
"Homeland" can not win an Emmy, but it is a little better than most of his debut this fall on free TV. It becomes a habit for Showtime, which continues to close the gap with subscribers high-quality HBO shows.
Howard Gordon was co-creator of "24" and he saw through eight seasons finally tried the patience of the most ardent fan. (How many constitutional crises and the presidents of emergency, even a false U.S. address?)
When he was good, good, "24" was very good, and dialogue about the war on terrorism have been better than anything you can hear the Sunday yak shows.
"We were also involved in the discussion of torture in there," Gordon told TV critics fall previews' in LA "We got a right painted with the brush, but in reality, our staff was completely divided ideological lines, and we tried to take account of this history. "
Gordon promises to "Homeland", despite riding a "24" territory, will be different -. Very different Brody Nicolas, played by the new Patriot Lewis will be the opposite of "24" Jack Bauer. And the country's fate will not be in balance at the end of each episode.
"We mostly deal with the human drama of a hero returning, and the CIA agent who suspects him, had been shot," Gordon said.
This seems to confirm the suspicion in flashback dream of the first episode where Brody shows a mouse the other prisoners in exchange for clemency.
I hope that the attack proves to be a red herring. It would be disappointing if the show Gordon and other factors, championship, Alex (the second alum "24"), and Gideon Raff, a robot made of The Manchurian Candidate, Lewis, Brit was too little leadership position in the U.S. (NBC's "Life").
On the other hand, Carrie Mathison, they Spook played by the Danes, a fully developed character. It could be a reason to keep tuning in. Mathison is obviously dedicated to keeping our country safe, but it's hard when you are so insecure it is. Pills and Mr. Goodbar asylum, she is a warrior who will do everything to promote its cause and / or career, including a classic playbook output Cleopatra - to snuggle her older male superiors (played by Patinkin) .
For me at least, the program runs on two things: the relationship between Brody and Mathison, moving forward in a brief but thrilling encounter in the controller, and how Brody is in the media of the new fiction which is charged with the task of leading the heroic narrative Mathison supposedly want to undo.
The representations of the media in TV series are very poor, which always intrigues me - it's not like you have to hunt around for good source material. It is always the 24 / 7, and is always the same.
Ddelonte West
Closed from its primary task of the NBA players, the West has studied the positions in Home Depot and Sam's Club (at the Department of knives) while working on an album of rap. Now she landed gigs Regency Furniture Showrooms, Washington, DC, Maryland and Virginia chain, in order to "stay afloat during the block." West, who is a world free agent basketball Twitter tirelessly on his first day in his new job and shared images (which you'll see when it calms down a Twitter account). He also shared the image of his job application, which is the explanation that he had been convicted of a crime, because "a misunderstanding".
Daniel King, Sales Manager Brandywine shop, a reliable source has confirmed that the West is at work. Or was it Thursday.
West, a graduate from Greenbelt Eleanor Roosevelt High School is a familiar face around the store. "Sometimes you stop just to say hello," King said. "It can make some extra money, and it would make money for us."
There was confusion at first about the West should work. Sales of furniture seems to be a better thing for him to lift it, but when checked with a reliable source the regency, he was in the warehouse.
In fact, Western Twitter a picture of him with a shirt and Regency Chillin ', uh, to meet new colleagues in the store and the "fun in my new job." In general, seemed happy with a day's work in the real world, saying, Regency is a "cool place to be."
Delonte Who knows how long, though? In August, he was very enthusiastic to sell knives.
"In fact, I have worked with Sam [Club], BJ who sell knives," said Adam Reisinger Hoop True West. "It's pretty cool too. I get a microphone and everything. "

"You were so close to him and his bodyguard, what can not at least know what happened?" Said Brent Jeffs, Warren Jeffs, who accused him of rape.
"The evidence I've seen, there were people that you are charged, not even in the church that you are accused, who had nothing to do with it," said Brent Jessop Jeffs.
"It has nothing to do with this," said Brent Jeffs.
"If the government you would think they would have filed a complaint," said Jessop. "That's all I can say."
"If Warren was not guilty, why go out and run?" Detective Sat Brower said. "I do not make sense. Innocent people not to run."
"What I do not want to do is sound like I'm defending Warren," Jessop said Dr. Phil at some point in the interview.
Dr. Phil then cut him and said, "So stop defending!"
"I try to defend a system," Jessop countered.
Brower said that 600 officials, including President Barack Obama, received a proclamation from Jeffs four months ago.
"In this he gives the most wacky prophecies and revelations warned the government to let him go or suffer the judgments of God, and your signature is there," Brower said that Jessop.
"We are proud of what it is. Here is the signature for each member of the whole Church, and these signatures are used in many documents also required the government to return to our country," said Jessop. "Why have you come here and say that was attended by Warren Jeffs is a hoax!"
Jessop then threw the paper on the floor and said: "It was a case that showed the whole church, and showed that we ask the government for redress of our land!" "You show your colors!" Joni, a former FLDS church member shouted. "It's Willie! This is the Willie know!"
Dr. Phil to summarize the discussion, said Jessop, "They (the former FLDS) came here wanting to forgive and accept the apology and move on. But I believe rather than what they have is aggression, anger and avoidance. "

Herman Cain joined Rick Perry and Mitt Romney, in what is described as the top layer of the candidates in the race for the Republican candidate for president?
It 'was a new Fox News poll suggests national.
The survey, released Wednesday, indicates that 17 percent of likely Republican primary voters say they back to Cain, a businessman, former CEO of Pizza Patron, and radio host, the party's presidential nomination. According to the survey, Cain is just two points behind Texas Gov. Rick Perry (less than 19 percent) and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney trails (23 percent) in six points. These two differences are the sampling error for the survey.
Cain has increased by 11 percentage points in the Fox poll last year, conducted at the end of August. The new survey was conducted Sunday through Tuesday, when the GOP presidential debate last Thursday, and even after the overwhelming victory of Cain on Saturday, saw a lot of poll of Florida Republican activists.
Perry dropped ten points since the last survey of Fox, for the first time in a month, the governor of Texas is the top of the land in a national survey of the Republican Party. The survey was conducted after the misconduct of Perry in the latest presidential debate, after Perry left behind in the poll in Florida. Analysts and experts expected Perry to capture the vote is not binding.
Romney's numbers remained virtually unchanged from August to late September, according to Fox poll, and his four-point lead on Perry is the survey sampling error. Former House speaker Newt Gingrich does not get Fox to support the elections, go to 3 percent at the end of the survey on August 11 percent of the survey in progress.
Fox poll comes days after the release of the CNN / ORC International survey, which is also reported to benefit from Gingrich and Cain in the wake of the debate last Thursday, but Perry was at the top GOP. Without the former governor of Alaska Sarah Palin, race, the CNN poll that was conducted just three days of debate, Perry, showed 30 percent, Romney with 22 percent, Gingrich is a 11 per percent, and Cain was a 9 per cent.
Both studies show a decrease in length and Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota, standing in national polls has dropped since winning a crucial test vote in Iowa, August 13 Bachmann is about three percent of the new Fox poll and four percent in the CNN poll.
"One lesson we must re-learn every cycle is that" top level "and all the other list is not made of concrete, Silly Putty," said Rich Galen, a Republican strategist who advised the Former Senator Fred Thompson during his 2008 GOP presidential bid. He is the author of Mullings.com, an online column.
"Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty Former Rep. Michele Bachmann, and was once a" higher level ", but Ron Paul never had. Perry came to race in the top level, but who knows if he stays there. If Herman Cain the highest level we need to see how long it takes. ends with him accepting the nomination committee in August, you can end up with him suspended in December, "said Gale.
Fox News Poll was conducted from September 25 to 27, with 925 voters nationwide, including 363 primary GOP voters questioned by telephone.

Q: What is Listeria?
A: Listeria is a bacterium resistant to soil and water that can be worn by animals. It is often found in processed meats, because it can contaminate a processing facility and remain there for a long time. It is also common in the unpasteurized cheeses and unpasteurized milk. It is less common in the products cantaloupe, but there was an outbreak of Listeria in some other fruits and vegetables in recent years.

Q: Am I in danger?
A: Listeria usually only affects the elderly, people with weakened immune systems, pregnant women and infants whose mothers are infected before birth.

A: The recalled cantaloupe can be labeled "Colorado Grown", "Produce Distributed by Frontera", "Jensenfarms.com" or it can also be labeled "Sweet Rocky Ford." "American." Not all cantaloupes recalled are labeled with a label, the Food and Drug Administration said, so it can be hard to say. Neither the government nor Farms Jensen published a list of dealers who sold fruit, so health officials advise consumers to ask retailers about the origin of their cantaloupes.
Q: I think I could have one of the contaminated cantaloupes in my house. But I'm not sure. What should I do?
: The Government's motto is "When in doubt, throw it away." And if you believe it was tainted fruit of your home, clean, clean surfaces can be touched.
Q: I scrub all my fruits and vegetables before eating them. So I'm fine, right?

The health officials that people may have been disgusted when people cut their melons, the interior door Listeria fruit. If you suspect that contaminated cantaloupe at home, the best way is to throw it away.
Q: It sounds like cantaloupes are not even sent to my state. Should I be worried?
A: The FDA said Jensen Farms sent to 25 states, but it may have been sold in other states. The disease was discovered in several states where the cantaloupes were sent, including in Maryland, where one person died.
Q: Why are there so many deaths have been?
R: Listeria is less known than other pathogens such as salmonella and E. coli, which causes disease in many contaminated foods each year. However, Listeria is deadly. One in five people who contract it can die.

Packers Bears
The historic rivalry peaked last season when teams have played three games that were not decided until the last minute, capped at Packers '21-14 victory in the NFC championship game at Soldier Field in January. But as close as the teams were on the dashboard, Packers seemed to be increasing, with the Bears struggling to keep up.
Bears (1-1) have the chance to abolish this theory when they play the defending Super Bowl champion Packers (2-0) on Sunday at Soldier Field. And 'their first meeting after that game in January, when Jay Cutler was the second time and most of the bears were still able to commit until undrafted Rookie safety Sam Shields, Caleb Hanie pass intercepted by 12-yard line Packers 'with 37 seconds remaining
This game and the series are characterized Bears-Packers in 2010. When it really mattered, it was the Packers, who did the work. The Bears were able to eliminate the Packers to the playoffs in the last game of the regular season, but not to land the final blow when Cutler, who was sacked four times in the last three games, was sacked six times by the Packers. Linebacker Erik Walden, who had been signed in the street eight weeks before, had three of them.
The Bears still feel the sting of this loss, but it's not like a hand was a rallying cry this week at Halas Hall.
Rodgers top of league
It was''long ago and we try to put it behind us and build off it at the same time,''linebacker Brian Urlacher said. ''We think we played well enough to win this game on defense. We did not play enough. It's frustrating. You get [Close] to your goal and you do not do it. I commend you for them. They got to do and we have not.
''We have a chance to catch it this weekend. It will not be about the size of the game, but it's a start in the right direction.''
Packers have won five of seven games against the Bears with Aaron Rodgers was the quarterback. And the two bears were gains to above normal for the quotient Fluke 20-17 overtime victory in 2008, Soldier Field, where the special-teams plays to set up touchdowns and the Bears and a field goal blocked by Alex Brown, has sent overtime and the game in Soldier Field last season, the 20-17 victory, Devin Hester returned a punt for a touchdown and the Packers have called 18 penalties, including one that wiped out the touchdown, and two are empty listening Cutler.
Bears won both games honestly. But like football to go, you win the punt return, blocked kicks and turnovers does not mean that the future success, even to win, because Rodgers is one of the best quarterbacks in football.
And 'one of the critical region, where Bears Packers Trump. Rodgers leads the defense could battle on Sunday, throwing a few incompletions than normal and perhaps even listening, but he is a great against everyone else.
We are making it look easy
Cutler is a Pro Bowl-caliber quarterback on his back with the wind, but a proposal is arbitrary in any other situation. Mike Martz offense Every quarterback has been the completion of the share of 62 percent or more of JT O'Sullivan, who has completed 58.2 percent in eight starts at San Francisco 49ers in 2008.
In 19 games in Martz offense is 56.8 percent Cutler and fall. In his last eight games, his 52.4 completion percentage. It is in a difficult situation with a line of fortune, offensive, and the receivers on average, but not all have to be in a comfort zone to put a team on his back. Rodgers was sacked 50 times in 2009 (against 34 last season) and his completion percentage, yards, touchdowns and passer rating went up. Then the total victory of Packers' - six to 11
Not all the Packers have it all. Coach Mike McCarthy. The defensive coordinator Dom Capers. A state of art natural grass at Lambeau Field. And most importantly, a player personnel department headed by Ted Thompson, Executive Director.
Fifteen of the '22 Packers Super Bowl starters and 31 of the 45 active players on their roster were drafted or signed as rookie free agents the team when Thompson came from the Seattle Seahawks in 2005. They wrote Bryan Bulag end of the first round in 2010, the right tackle to five games in his rookie season and won the Super Bowl. It may not be so easy.

F8 Facebook
Facebook is a radically revised its profile page, start the "Timeline" - a new way to tell the story of your life on a single page, allowing users to listen to music, watch movies and read the news without leaving the site .
In announcing the series of changes to f8, the annual conference of Facebook developers in San Francisco, Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook founder and CEO, said: "Millions of people heal their life stories on Facebook every day and 'n no way to share a time that falls from your profile page ... we worked on the "timeline" for the entire year ... It is the story of his life and completely new way of expression.
"It has three parts: all your stories, your programs and a new way to express who you are."
Zuckerberg said he wanted people to share the "life" on Facebook and the "total control" of how their content is published on the web. Use your profile to show the new schedule, Zuckerberg showed images of the same child, which is inserted into the new profile page, which is organized by year. "Timeline" is thrown out of the next "few weeks".
He said he wanted people to "fill the gaps" so that the personal information of all users' was to their Facebook profile. At the meeting, which is streaming thousands of people living around the world, Zuckerberg, announced a series of partnerships with the music, media and gaming companies, like Spotify, Netflix, Zynga [Farmville Maker], and the Washington Post. The new development will allow users to listen to music, watch movies and read the news without leaving Facebook, from this day forward.
Adding content to Facebook is the first social network allows users to access content directly through an application without leaving the site.
Zuckerberg said the company was taken to focus on a "new class of applications," bringing the content directly into your Facebook news service. In describing the "graph open," said Mark Zuckerberg, the new way to interact with applications in the flow of news is "no friction".
Initial reactions to technology analysts have been positive, with many agree that change has further increased the advantage of Facebook on Google in the social space - that privacy remains.
"With its new" timeline "and the changes that provide real-time discovery of content and activities is itself like Facebook, not only your online social graph, but your online life. These changes, not only help to eclipse its rival Google, but will open new opportunities for marketers with new types of customer experiences, long-term commitment, advertising, and customer intelligence - but concerns about confidentiality and immaturity in how to do these things effectively, will make a go slow, "said Sean Corcoran, an analyst at Forrester Technology.
Google has launched a new social network, Google +, earlier this year, rival Facebook. And 'now more than 25 million members and has received praise from privacy settings and a clean design.
Users of social networks will now be able to do more than just "like" something. The social network has added "verbs" in its official language. People will now be able to say they have "seen" a movie or "cooked" meals.
Facebook, which has more than 750 million subscribers, has also announced the failed drive is a search engine's website, which attracts half a billion users in a day.
Rick Santorum
Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum has decided to do something about his problem with Google, apparently with the company to remove the dirt with the results for his name.
Just type his name in the browser search and you'll see why. Instead of campaign sites and pages of Wikipedia, both Top Results for "Santorum" link to errors, gender definitions of the old name of Pennsylvania senator, which was distributed by rights activist gay columnist Dan Savage and joker.
In response to comments by a former senator in 2003, identified with gay sexuality and polygamy and incest, Savage has launched an online contest to redefine the word "Santorum". The winning result is not approved for children, to say the least, and Santorum, 53, is tired of "dirt" as he calls it. White House hopes reported asked Google to filter the unflattering results, which are high on the list for over six years.
"I doubt that there was something similar on Joe Biden, will get rid of it," he told Politico. "If you're a responsible business, do not give that kind of place that affect the business." Hope of the White House said that "it allows the activity of dirt that purveyed through their website or their system is one thing that they say can not handle, but I suspect that's not true."
The campaign has yet to return a request for comment.
Google Answer: Do not blame the messenger, blame the webmaster.
"Google search results are a reflection of the contents and information are available on the Web," Gabriel Stricker, a spokesman for the company said in a statement. "People who want to remove the content from the Internet should contact the webmaster of the page directly.
"When the page is webmaster of the Internet, it will be removed from Google search results through our normal review process."
Stricker said Google "does not delete the content from our search results, except in very limited cases, such as illegal and violations of our webmaster guidelines."
While Santorum criticized both wild and Google several times to research results, he also used the issue to raise donations for the campaign.
"Savage and his perverse sense of humor is why my kids do not Google the name of the father," Santorum wrote in a letter in July to support the campaign, according to the Statesman. "That's why I need your support today, and your share of $ 25, $ 50, $ 100 or $ 250 campaign. You can help now by a small or large in the campaign. Do not let Dan Savage and the extreme left to win. "
In 2003, an interview with The Associated Press, Santorum said gay sex "undermines the fundamental principles of our society and the family."
"If the Supreme Court says you have the right to consensual sex within your home," Santorum said in the interview, "then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right incest, you have the right to adultery. You are entitled to nothing. undermine the fabric of our society? I would say yes, he does. "

X Factor Judges
Juges de X Factor, Cheryl Cole seems Remplacé Scherzinger
Dopo mesi di Annunci e Suoni da Simon Cowell, 'X Factor' debuttato his Fox finally mercoledì sera.
Nuncio
What this shows is supposed to be about music and the talent to go in the first, much of the focus was on Cowell and Paula Abdul are back at the judges' table, but was carried away by the substitution a judge midterm of the first.
Les ont été quelque peu téléspectateurs confused when Nicole Scherzinger des Pussycat Dolls east remplacé The British artists après les auditions Cheryl Cole of Los Angeles.
Rumors swirling around the entertainment industry to say Cole's accent may have been his undoing. But Simon Cowell Piers Morgan said Cole was dismissed because the panel seemed "confused".
X Factor i Giudici
There was a clear distinction between Cole and Scherzinger, who was apparently early in the second hour after the Pussycat Doll Pink, Paula Abdul and dancing in front of the stage during a performance. Cole felt comfortable sitting on the seat, and criticized the experiment.
It seems that the critics have Cole back to this issue.
USA Today writer Brian Mansfield wrote: "When you go to her little-girl act, the judge / mentor, Nicole Scherzinger, Paula Abdul will make the appearance."
Fa male.
The New York Times said replacement Cole was a "downgrade".
Il ya eu quelques moments d'autres comme juge notable "rivalité" between Cowell et producteur de musique LA Reid.
So for now new features Fox talent contest, Cowell, Reid, and Scherzinger Abdul. Cole fans might be disappointed with the decision to Cowell let go, but she won some fans on Wednesday night.
Meg Whitman
After the news emerged on Wednesday that the board of directors of HP was planning to oust its chief executive, deflected criticism from Leo Apotheker and against the edge. Apotheker may have presided over a decline in operating income, excluding acquisition price and the eventual decision to sell its PC business. But he was director of HP, who took a lot of criticism.
If new reports are to be true, the criticism is justified. Apotheker will be the third CEO of HP expelled or forced to resign in less than seven years. Surprisingly, one report indicates that much of the commission had not met before hiring Apotheker. It was the back "fake" scandal in 2006, when the Board of HP, but with different members, it is said that the abuse tactics to obtain phone records of journalists. And the way he handled the departure of former executive director of the Perplexed, Mark Hurd, last year after concerns about a relationship with a woman entrepreneur also questionable. As an expert in corporate governance, said the Wall Street Journal, HP's board "seems to attract misery."
Neither seem to be very focused on preparing the inside. After three outside directors are or seem on the verge of being fired, most of the talk in the press on Wednesday that he was a board member of Meg Whitman, former CEO of eBay and unsuccessful candidate for governor, would be a candidate take over.
Given the fate of three HP hired outsiders, it is hard not to wonder why insiders do not receive more attention. Carly Fiorina, who was brought from Lucent, famous rubbed HP employees in the wrong direction with a management structure from top to bottom, and presented its passage of the Way of the company touted HP. After Fiorina was fired, was named interim CEO after a few months until his successor could be appointed. It is obviously ended up being the former NCR CEO Mark Hurd, who has won over Wall Street with its sharp cost reductions and operational excellence. But he was less popular with employees who have apparently not many of his performances and gnawed its budget cuts, which included trimming wages.
After striking out Hurd, the Board established Cathie Lesjak CFO on an interim basis. But instead of promoting an internal candidate, which surprised investors by naming Apotheker, who was ousted as CEO of SAP, a few months before. If Hurd was a stranger, Léo Apotheker has been even more of Germany and the software industry.
HP is the grandfather of Silicon Valley. Has been respected executives who have been in business for years. Culture of innovation and engineering reputation is legend. If it was an old company, three presidents from abroad in short succession would be difficult. But if a place known for its long tradition of egalitarianism development, decentralization, and generosity with employees, is likely to be traumatic.
In the world today, the shareholders expect the board to have a strong hand in planning. Many investors have pushed boards to adopt resolutions that share some details about its plans for succession to the public and as shown in the HP is a good reason. Maybe even the name of HP will be an insider, reports said Todd Bradley, head of HP's PC business, and David Donatelli, who heads the company's servers, may be candidates. If not, chances are that nobody was able to turn around the company at this time. But if so, whose fault is it?
Elizabeth Warren
You built the factory there? Good for you. But I want to make clear: the market is the sale you have the rest of us will be paid the wages, workers in the rest of us are paid to train, from the factory were safe because the police and fire the rest of us pay . You do not have to worry about marauding bands that would come and confiscate all your factory and hire someone to avoid this situation, because the rest of us do not work.
You know, you built a factory, and turned it into something horrible, or good idea? God bless you. Keep a big chunk of it. But some of the underlying contract social is taking a piece of that and time to pay the next guy that comes along.
It's part of speech is wonderful then why Elizabeth Warren is the big industry can get away without paying ridiculous taxes, while the rest of the country suffers. It is also a rapid response to efforts to protect the millionaires and billionaires of the Republican Party's tax structure fairer Obama insists on a debt agreement (instead of cutting social services, clean air and protecting the clean water, disaster relief, protection against climate change, and so on). Elizabeth Warren (born Elizabeth Herring, [1] June 22, 1949) [2] is an American lawyer, law professor, and U.S. Senate candidate. He served as Assistant to the President and Special Adviser to the Secretary of the Treasury Office of Consumer Finance. She is also the Leo Gottlieb professor of law at Harvard Law School, where he taught contract law, bankruptcy and commercial law.

Blaine Gabbert
The Jacksonville Jaguars turn to rookie quarterback Blaine Gabbert.
Coach Jack Del Rio called on Wednesday from Gabbert, change ringing, three days after Luke McCown threw four interceptions against the Jets in New York.
Del Rio met with Gabbert and McCown Wednesday morning, and then told the other players on the transition to a team meeting. Gabbert will start Sunday at Carolina.
The move was inevitable, because Gabbert Jaguars selected with the 10th overall pick in April. Del Rio had hoped to take it slow with the exceptional in Missouri, even planning to give him a year to observe and learn behind David Garrard. But Garrard had his worst pre-season as a starter and was dominated by McCown, a backup career.
Del Rio named McCown the five days before the start of the season opening. But his early career ninth failure. He was released four times and could take a little more, and was sacked for a safety - in just three quarters.
Gabbert replaced McCown to start the fourth, and completed 5 of 6 go for 52 yards in relief.
Gabbert threw 40 touchdown passes and 18 interceptions came in two years in Missouri. Due to the blockage in the NFL, missed minicamp activities organized by the team and dozens of meetings with offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter. However, impressed coaches and teammates with his arm strength, pocket presence, situational awareness and speed.
But Gabbert struggled at times in the preseason, especially in Del Rio confirmed that he needed more time to learn the offense and to read NFL defenses.
The Jaguars wanted to give him time, but McCown's performance against the Jets changed all that. McCown completed 6 of 19 to 59 meters will. Jacksonville ran the ball well and kept McCown being hit a lot, so there was some excuse for wiretapping.
The Jets won 32-3, the second worst defeat of Del Rio within nine years. And since he is widely regarded as the framework for the future - team owner Wayne Weaver said the Jaguars need to make the playoffs from Del Rio to stay one more year - was reasonable if you put your fate in the hands of a rookie quarterback .
Del Rio took several days to assess the situation before turning things around Gabbert.
Crystal Cathedral
The controversy surrounding the sale of bankruptcy of the Crystal Cathedral continues as speculation mounts on the return of Dr. Robert H. Schuller, founder of Garden Grove, California, church, senior pastor.Some think Schuller, famous for its " hours of Power "broadcast can be the saving grace of the Church.
Whispers back Schuller was born after the September 14 decision, a federal judge ruled to proceed with the sale of the emblematic church of glass, as creditors seek to recover $ 50 million to the Ministry evil.
"I am 85 years old and I thought about the future of the church," Schuller said while the federal courthouse in Santa Ana last week, reports NBC.
About 400 creditors have received a voting schedule in the sales plan for the mega-church, which has already received several offers - the highest bid of the Catholic Diocese of Orange for $ 53.6 million.
The Crystal Cathedral was forced to seek protection under Chapter 11 bankruptcy in October 2010 when they face persecution for the money owed to suppliers of production in 2009 of "Glory of Christmas." In addition to pending charges, the church also was criticized for a drop in income.
Current owner of the cathedral parish priest, Sheila Schuller Coleman announced in May that the church was sold because of its economic situation.
The church then announced a "full of faith" the decision in July to try to raise money through contributions from fans and record sales of Crystal Cathedral, but it seems that the sale is imminent.
"I do not really know at this time how the plan is going to specify that the buyer will be, which will select a buyer," said Carl Grumer NBC.
Registration is a lawyer representing Dr. Schuller and the lady and her daughter, Carol, and her husband Tim Milner.
"There are many unknown at this stage, so it's hard for us any kind of determination," said Grumer.

The CEO began on November 1 HP after HP ousted former CEO, Mark Hurd, after an ethical scandal. Since the arrival of Leo Apotheker, however, HP shares fell, continuing a decline that began with the departure of Hurd.
One source said it is possible that Apotheker be replaced - at least temporarily - with Meg Whitman, former CEO of online marketplace eBay Inc., Whitman joined the Board of Directors of HP in January.
If Apotheker has been asked to leave the HP would be the second time it was thrown out of place as CEO.

Part of HP rose $ 2.27, or 10 percent, to $ 24.74 in trading in the afternoon. In the past year, the stock traded from $ 22.13 to $ 49.39.
Jonah Hill
Jonah Hill is thin. You have probably read 30 books in regular and now Judd Apatow co-star Brad Pitt in Moneyball, has done recently. But even more shocking in person twice, so if they met four years ago, when was the release of Superbad. The Falstaff Motormouth really excited and noisy found his fame, was replaced by someone who not only thinner, but more reserved. He wore a Daniel Johnston last time we met, and now sports the fancy clothes. The new hill is always talkative and positive, but quieter and more attentive to his words.
"I identified when I was 21 or 22 years," he says. "You guys hurt me the same things over and over again, if you have not already. So it is very important to diversify."
This sphere of money, an impressive film version of Michael Lewis' bestseller '2003 Billy Beane, general manager of Oakland, which is well known / alleged service of "sabermetrics" in the form of cold statistical analysis designed to (hopefully) produces a dynamic low-budget baseball team. Against Pitt's charismatic, if eccentric Beane, Hill, which is the shooting had not yet disposed of the weight, it should be noted, plays Peter, a math nerd accomplices Composite Beane, Theo Epstein and Paul as a mayor. Hill, better known as an extrovert, is the opposite: the shy flower inclined to give all his dialogue shocked whisper.
In a way it was not hard, describes acting alongside Pitt and Philip Seymour Hoffman (as coach) from a screenplay by Aaron Sorkin and Steven Zaillian, and Cyrus was half serious, was his Moneyball "intimdating". the drama of the first film.
The role is similar to the hill of life in other ways. "I had four Billy Beane type of experiences in life", where someone had "shed some light for me and [said], 'You have something greater than you, I'll give you a chance to shine.'" The first of these was Dustin Hoffman, whom he met when she studied acting at New School, and recommend a small role in I Heart Huckabees. The rest of the Judd Apatow (of course), Mark and Jay Duplass, who throws it to Cyrus, and head the ball Money, Bennett Miller (Capote).
Although the hill, even though the new version of him, is more reliable than the ball money for his character, you can hear the similarities. "[He] was the only person in the society that you come across a company, sometimes I felt that it was featured in the movie, the guy that actually merges with the wall. It 'a little' Aasperger's-y, my character, only that the boy who would do all the crunching, the work to be done. "
Of course, there was a lot of differences. "I can hardly be lowered to 10, in person, but I had a tutor to help me understand what statistics I mentioned. That Bennett wanted to improvise in the statistics, which was the most frustrating to come in preparation for the film. I wanted to kill him. It is not easy to be thrown out the numbers, and can be legit. "
Understandably, improvisation is not enough balls proved to be broader and more money, because it is not in his plays. "Social networking was coming, when we finished shooting. Steven Zaillian wrote Schindler's List. So it's not that I was like, 'Okay, take a chainsaw to this thing" and started riffing. "
But the drama and comedy are all so different. Hill points to the debate, Miller, who asked him if it was a pleasure to do theater. She said yes, but acknowledged there was no feeling better than standing on the back of the theater and hear people explode in laughter. "And he said:" Well, I bet you are going to a different type of sound, after you watch this movie in a theater. "I said," Why "And he said:". When you find yourself behind the theater and listen to the silence and know that their silence is bent forward in their chairs need to know what happens next "
And he was right. In the first at the Toronto International Film Festival, Hill said there was a deathly silence at the peak. "That's what [I] was the most curious to see if 2500 people had to be quiet during this part of the theater. And they were, and it was really cool. A different feeling for sure."
Ron Artest
Basketball player Ron Artest was the first participant to leave "Dancing with the Stars" (DWTS) in the first of the new season, which was shown last night on ABC.
NBA player Ron Artest failed to impress the judges on the first to the 13th season of Dancing with the Stars. He and his partner, Peta Murgatroyd, presented a cha-cha routine, which was one of the poorest performances in the show Tuesday. The couple got only 14 points on 30 Explain why it was voted, Carrie Ann Inaba judges said: "It was sexy, but bad for all the technical reasons."
With him, the couple with the lowest number of points Rob Kardashian and Nancy Grace.
After announcing the first competitor who was about to say goodbye to the series, Artest was always cheerful. He took the opportunity to thank the show's television network, the show and your partner. "Peta was great! It was awesome," he said.
One day after the abolition, Artest admitted, which changed its name to World Peace Metta to Us Weekly that he was a bit "disappointed" to leave the competition as quickly. "I did not leave a bad impression on television [and] be angry and sad," he confessed. But this experience allowed him to become a better basketball player. He said there is a significant difference in the field on his physical condition. Artest has accepted that, after a week of dance training every day, her hips felt better. He also said that if it is off the show he found a new passion.
"I'm leaving the show, but now I love to dance!" He said.
The other participants are: Chaz Bono, David Arquette, JR Martinez, Rob Kardashian, Ricki Lake, Kristin Cavallari, Elisabetta Canalis, Nancy Grace, Hope Solo and Chyanne Phillips.
Maurice Sendak
The first book is 30 years, beloved children's author Maurice Sendakin wrote and illustrated the story of a pig birthday party chaotic. This does not sound nearly as scary as the scary characters celebrate "If the Wild Things Are." But parents are up in arms over Sendakin history than they were in "Wild Things" was published in 1963, the Christian Science Monitor.
"Bumble Ardy," the story of a nine-year pork Bumble orphans who never had a birthday party. Bumble when they decide to throw in the final party with her aunt, when she is gone, will cause more than a couple of fear-inducing moments, some of which are grotesque masks, costumes and appearance of the Grim Reaper.
Parents may feel particularly nervous because the monsters in this story looks like the inside of the house, not on a remote island they were in "Wild Things". And they can not be satisfied with pigs dissolute involved in the party, hissing brine. (In the first draft, the pigs drank wine, but confessed Sendak and changed the brine in the final version.)
Very few comments mother "Bumble-Ardy" was specific about what bothers them about the book. Most say they just do not like it.
One reviewer on Amazon.com called teacher "Bumble Ardy," a "disturbing book in many ways."
The second evaluator, who bought his nephew's book, wrote: "I do not think that children can understand, or to see a particular sense of humor in this book ... too difficult for younger children."
Sendak says that parents are not willing to recognize and treat the nightmarish fantasies of children. He told the New York Times books, children who have tried to "keep [the children] calm, keep them happy, keep them comfortable and safe ... I left it, and it is considered unlikely. So be it."
But while Sendak was accused of fear in the hearts of children for years, the Atlantic, writes that the paradox of his books is that "too often, children and adults do not agree with them."
Throughout the war broke out in families of more than Sendakin books, says the Atlantic, as is often - despite the dissatisfaction of parents - children are absolutely adored them.
Sometimes parents come around. "Where the Wild Things Are" later became a literary success - for all ages.
But they will come around, "Bumble-Ardy"? See scenes of licentiousness! orgies! Disobedience!
After all the fuss dies down, they realize that "Bumble Ardy," is as imaginative as the previous work Sendak. They may realize that it's even more fun. And they could see that as "Wild Things "Bumble story offers children a" safe way to explore the fantasy of parentlessness, "The Atlantic wrote," before he returns, content and confident than loving arms.

Since last week, Newton was in no mood to celebrate after a loss.
"We just have to get it right. Let's do it right," said Newton. "But I am not the person to sit here and say," Well, we have the next time. "I'm not that type of person. I want you, and I want it right now."
