Hideki Okajima Joins The Evil Empire
2011-12-28 20:39:00 A former Boston Red Sox reliever, Hideki Okajima, has gone over to the dark side as he has signed a minor league deal with the New York Yankees.

The Unintended Empire
2011-12-28 17:24:00 A new year is almost upon us, so now seems like a perfect time to step back from the (many) crises at hand and take stock of the big picture. According to my friend & fellow thinker George Friedman, the big picture of the next 10 years is this: America will dominate, and the American president will have to figure out how to act as global emperor without admitting that’s what he is. George’s newest book, The Next Decade, comes out in paperback in January; and he’s graciously agreed to let me send you the first chapter, which backs up the bold statements above. We don’t always agree, but I have to give George credit. He’s an expert at . . . → Read More: The Unintended Empire

Israel, the only lost empire
2011-12-20 08:56:00 The end to the era of empires is yet another leftist end-of-history myth. Empires answer a very deep human need for grandeur. Already the ancient empires tend to be unprofitable. The Romans conquered the entire civilized world, yet poverty abounded in Rome. If the imperial ventures had been even slightly profitable, the smallest tribute from ten to fifty million subjects would have sufficed to grossly enrich every citizen of a tiny Roman city. The Greek and Persian empires similarly did not enrich the masses. The proverbial riches of the Persian court were insignificant: even by the standards of ancient sustenance economy, a few hundred golden plates cannot be described as the wealth of a nation. Since the Renaissance, empires have turned staggeringly unprofitable, typically bankrupting their leaders. The condemnations of the third world notwithstanding, the British Empire spent more on guarding its colonies than received in income from them. Unsurprisingly, the commercial compani...

SWORD IN THE [AFRICAN] STONE
2011-11-10 15:04:00 Way before Disney's rendition of the Sword In The Stone story, the Ashanti Empire of West Africa buried its own sword courtesy of the tribe's first king, Komfo Anokye. As legend has it, the leader buried the relic and declared that the day anyone ever pulled it out would mark the end of the empire. It sits in the ground to this day!

Sathya Sai Trust?s V.Srinivasan: Defending A Religious Empire Fallen. A Tor
2011-07-06 01:27:00 Unfortunately for Sathya Sai Trust spokesman V. Srinivasan and his (and Sathya Sai Baba's) already badly tattered credibility, Last Sunday, still more treasure was found in secret places in Sai Baba's private quarters. This time, the joint District Collector and her team searched for and found it. But, in a case of caught-out-yet-again, this lot of treasure DID NOT appear in the Trust's inventory, which the government of Andhra Pradesh had put the Trust on its Boy Scout's honor to make. Did the Sai Trustees obtain their spectacles or magnifying glasses from a manufacturer far superior to any the Trustees can manage to find? Srinivasan's earlier story was that huge amounts of money which police found being secretly removed by van and bus did not belong to the Trust but to twelve devotee donors.The India Daily reported (Tuesday 21 June 2011):

TV Review - Boardwalk Empire (# 1.1)
2010-09-20 05:29:00 BOARDWALK EMPIREAirs: Sundays at 9/8c on HBOGenre: Historical gangster dramaThe Set-Up: Atlantic City 1920.

Nucky's got everything in place - ward bosses, the city's respect, a local brewer, but his intricate operation is under attack before even getting to its feet, thanks to Nucky's recently hired lackey, Jimmy (the faux Leo, Michael Pitt), who has plans of his own, and the always-unpredictable gangster contingent.

2010-07-31 18:53:00 El edificio Empire State (en inglés: Empire State Building) es un rascacielos situado en la intersección de la Quinta Avenida y West 34th Street, en la ciudad de Nueva York, Estados Unidos. Su nombre deriva del apodo del Estado de Nueva York. Fue el edificio más alto del mundo durante más de cuarenta años, desde su finalización en 1931 hasta 1972, año en que se completó la construcción de la torre norte del World Trade Center. Tras la destrucción del World Trade Center en 2001, el edificio Empire State se convirtió nuevamente en el edificio más alto de la ciudad de Nueva York y el estado de Nueva York.El edificio Empire State ha sido nombrado por la Sociedad Americana de Ingenieros Civiles como una de las Siete Maravillas del mundo moderno.

'Penny Arcade' gamer cartoonists turn boredom and slacker 'tude into empire
2010-05-03 20:24:00 Image via Wikipedia By BOB ANDELMAN The closest I ever came to being a gamer was during college when I worked at the Royal Park Cinemas in Gainesville, Florida. Theaters 3 & 4 had one of those sit-down tables with Ms. Pac-Man on it and bored, listless employees played it for hours in between movie start times. That was okay, but I preferred the pinball game in theaters 1 & 2. Our projectionist, David Rocky, figured out how you could hit it just so and play endless free games. That?s the extent of my experience?and desire?to be a gamer. I?ve never had the fascination with video and computer games that is so prevalent these days; never queued up for the release of Myst or anything with the name ?Final? in it that never seemed final at all. Which is why, despite my love of print and web comics, I somehow missed the ?Penny Arcade? phenomenon. My guests today are Jerry Holkins and Mike Krahulik, the creators of the webcomic "Penny Arcade." They are celebrating the r...

Download Alicia Keys' "Empire State Of Mind (Part II) Broken Down
2009-11-25 02:00:00 Alicia Keys "Empire State Of Mind (Part II) Broken Down" FULL, CDQ, Track off upcoming album, The Element Of Freedom *TIBS FAV.â„¢It's amazing how Alicia Keys can single-handedly make me want to visit New York. Her Part II version of "Empire State Of Mind" (the original currently #1 on Billboard.. shouts 2 splash) comes without the rumored verse from Jay-Z, and considering I'm not a big fan of his to begin with, that's a good thing for me. I thoroughly enjoyed the new version as Keys uses the same, wonderful chorus and strikes a lyrical balance in her verses between spotlighting New York City and making the song appealing to a wider audience. I remember reading that the first one...

5 Reasons KINGS Could Help Rebuild NBC’s Empire
2009-03-13 18:50:00 From the embarrassment that was ROSIE LIVE! to the train-wreck car crash that was KNIGHT RIDER, ragging on NBC has become an almost-too-easy pastime for theTVaddict.com. But what’s easy to forget in light of such massive, headline-grabbing failures is that NBC is also the network that was smart enough to give THE OFFICE and 30 ROCK time to find their audiences, renewed ratings-anemic CHUCK for a second season (and, hopefully, a third) and, in the case of Sunday night’s two-hour premiere of KINGS, has essentially given creator Michael Green (HEROES) carte-blanche to create a uniquely fascinating canvas on which to tell an epic saga. The scope of the canvas is much more reminiscent of premium-channel dramas such as THE TUDORS or ROME than the typical network fare. And the compairson goes beyond the surface, given that those shows followed the rise and fall of historic empires while KINGS takes a similar approach in retelling what is basically the story of David versus Goliath in t...
