Bonnie Franklin Dies at 69

On the television show “One Day at a Time”, Bonnie Franklin whose portrayal of a pert but determined Ann Romano in the 1970's and 1980s spun laughter out of the tributions of a divorced woman juggling parenting , career , love life and feminist convictions, died on Friday at her home in Los Angeles and she was 69 years old.

Her family said, the cause of her dead was complications of pancreaticcancer. They has announced the diagnosis in September.

Ms. Franklin also acted on the stage and in movies and for years sang and dance in a nightclub act. But she was most widely known in the role of Ann Romano, one of the first independent women to be portrayed on TV wrestling with issues like sexual harassment , rape and menopause. Ms. Franklin – green eyed, red haired , button-nosed and 5 foot 3 inches – brought a buoyant comic touch to the part.

Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag “not the legacy of AC3 only”

Assassin’sCreed 4: Black Flag will not simply import mechanics from much-criticised Assassin’s Creed 3, preferring to cherry pick from the franchise as a whole.

In an internally produced interview with creative director Jean Guesdon, Ubisoft described Assassin’s Creed3′s gameplay mechanics as not “attractive or not introduced properly”, asking how the development team will ensure that “the player has a fun, intelligent and progressive experience from start to end”.

“AC is a great franchise that allows us to learn from previous iterations. We’ve identified some areas of improvements and will definitely make sure that all systems are properly introduced and relevant to the player’s own motivations. We’re not the legacy of AC3 only but of all previous AC games and we spent a lot of time analysing the best things we could use from all of them,” Guesdon said.

One of the features the team is hoping to bring back is stealth, which has gradually decreased in importance and was somewhat poorly implemented in Assassin’s Creed 3.

“We are putting a lot of effort to improve that pillar of the franchise. Being a pirate was also about taking places by surprise, and this would require stealth abilities,” Guesdon said.

“So yes, stealth will be back. Infiltrations, tails and exploration of islands are all part of it. We are making sure that the level design not only support but encourage stealth. We’re working hard at providing missions and environments that always allow the player to choose this type of play.”

Guesdon said the key challenge of Black Flag is delivering a realistic, fun, open world naval and pirate game while remaining true to the pillars of the Assassin’s Creed franchise.

“Ultimately my objective with [Black Flag] is to provide a very good, polished and fun game that players will enjoy as much as we enjoy creating it,” he said.

“I would be thrilled to receive testimonies telling us that the way we’re depicting this period in history helped some of our audience to realize what the Golden Age of Piracy was really like.”

Assassin’sCreed 4: Black Flag is headed to PC, PS3, PS4, Wii U and Xbox 360,and is also expected on Microsoft’s new console.

Lauren Silberman stages pointless sideshow at regional combine

After the two pathetic and pitiful pseudo-kickoffs, after the stubborn refusal to say how far she'd ever actually kicked a football, Lauren Silberman still could have salvaged her day.

She could have looked at the reporters from the 30-odd media outlets gathered at the NewYork Jets' facility, stared straight at the 20 television cameras filming this regional scouting combine and said:

"The NFL opened this amazing door for me. I am a young entrepreneur. I have created a product geared toward professional athletes and I would be a lousy businesswoman if I didn't seize this once-in-a-lifetime platform."

But oh no, she didn't say that. She didn't even come close. She insisted she'd trained and over-trained, but she wouldn't say when exactly she first kicked a football. She swore she was better than what she showed Sunday, but wouldn't offer any anecdotal evidence to even suggest that. She crowed that she had done this as an inspiration to women, but didn't offer homage to any female athlete who has not only appeared but achieved in a hitherto man's sport

Rush Limbaugh: Dennis Rodman's the new secretary

Rus hLimbaugh compared Secretary of State John Kerry and former NBA star Dennis Rodman, who recently returned from a controversial trip to North Korea where he met with dictator Kim Jong Un.

“We’ve got the new secretary of state, Dennis Rodman, just back from North Korea talking to Kim Jong Un, who just wants Obama to call him. Man, what a foreign policy team. Joe Biden, John Kerry (who served in Vietnam) and Dennis Rodman (who played for the Pistons),” Limbaugh said on his radio program Monday, according to a show transcript.

Rodman recently returned from North Korea where he met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un while taping for the upcoming HBO program “VICE.” Speaking about his trip Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” Rodmansaid that the dictator asked him to have President Barack Obama call him.

Limbaugh played testimony from April 22, 1971, when Kerry — a Vietnam War veteran — testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

“They told the stories of times that they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power,” Kerry testified at the time. “Cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in the fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, not isolated incidents, but crimes committed on a day-to-day basis with a full awareness of officers at all levels of command.”

Limbaugh’s take — Kerry and Rodman made similar sentiments.

“There’s John Kerry basically saying, ‘Hey, we do the same thing the North Vietnamese do.’ He was spelling out the way American troops were behaving in Vietnam. [It’s] no different than Dennis Rodman coming back and saying, ‘Hey, you know, we have prison camps here. We murder people just like Kim Jong Un. It’s the same, just politics,’” Limbaugh said on his radio program.
