YouTube in the UK is to be stripped of its most popular music videos after the site failed to agree a new licensing deal with the Performing Rights Society for Music, the trade body that collects music royalties.

man, john stewart is very reasonably carving up jim cramer. i give cramer credit for showing up and taking his lumps even though it was essentially a face saving exercise.

For those of you following (with bated breath I am sure!) our juice cleanse.. Here are the instructions we received from our "guru" today on what to do next.
I have made the almond milk before (great to use in a smoothie), as well as some of the salad dressings, good stuff.

Julius Genachowski to head the FCC. Apparently this is a good thing, although I don't know much about him. From the article:
Genachowski was a Harvard classmate of Obama's and previously worked for Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer. He's currently a co-founder of LaunchBox Digital and Rock Creek Ventures, and held executive posts including general counsel at IAC/InterActiveCorp, which owns a list of Web properties including Ask.com, Match.com, Gifts.com, Reference.com, Evite, Citysearch, and Excite. IAC is a member of a coalition that supports more Net neutrality regulations and which also includes Amazon, eBay, and Google.
That last part sounds good.

it was short but hands down my meal of the year goes to todays lunch at Rouge Tomate, we did only app and main ..... menu descript below

App:
Heirloom Chicory and Fuji Apple Salad
Manchego, Marcona Almond and Quince Vinagrette
(it also had lots of other beautiful greens etc....stunning yum, light on the cheese everything in harmony and balance, textured)

Main:
Barley and Foraged Mushroom
Black Winter Truffle, Parmesan, Madeira
(it was ultra low or no butter but serious demi glas madeira sauce, super rich but not too much due to no butter, it was a risotto lux, deep dark and earthy)

$$
15 + 36 = 51 so not un-costly but worth it, nice wine list too.....

Making of The Godfather:
The real Mafia played a significant—if hidden—role in the creation of Francis Ford Coppola’s masterpiece The Godfather, and Mark Seal’s story in the 2009 Hollywood Issue (“The Godfather Wars”) detailed most of it. But one of the most remarkable anecdotes came to light only after the magazine was published, when the daughter of a reputed mobster told V.F. how her family befriended, tutored, and overfed the Corleones.
