Red Hot Chili Peppers Feel The 'Love' On I'm With You

Chili Peppers reveal secret to their longevity — and their brand-new album — to MTV News.

You would think, given everything that went into the making of I'm With You, that perhaps the Red Hot Chili Peppers would be content to ride off into the sunset. After all, their place in rock history is more than secure, and, really, at this point, why would they endure another hiatus or departure from the fold?

Then again, if you really think that, then perhaps you don't know the Red Hot Chili Peppers. To them, calling it quits has never been an option, and, recharged by the addition of new guitarist Josh Klinghoffer and their brand-new album, they're raring to go another 28 years.

"I feel as excited or more excited about this period — from the writing to the recording to the playing to the anticipation of going on tour — as I've ever felt about anything that we've done, from the beginning," RHCP frontman Anthony Kiedis told MTV News. "Sitting here, doing these interviews, listening to Josh — I often just go into a daydream of playing these songs live. And it's the same feeling I got in 1983, when I couldn't sleep the night before a show, and if I did fall asleep, I'd have a surreal little dream about the show itself, and, you know, I still have that feeling about this record ... it's a good feeling."

And really, that feeling is the key. Because unlike the thousands of bands that have risen, peaked and crumbled during the Peppers' career, they've never faltered, even during their darkest hours (and there have been plenty of those). But ask them to explain their rather remarkable longevity, and they'll chalk it all up to one basic feeling: love. It's what's pushed them to remarkable heights and pulled them back from the brink more times than they'd care to count. And with I'm With You, that love remains stronger than ever.

"There's probably 1 billion keys, but love could be the strongest: love of what we do and each other," Kiedis explained. "And just being fortunate enough to create a band that survives this long kind of generates its own sustainability."

"And trusting yourself enough to be yourself and to take yourself as far as you can go," bassist Flea added. "Not ever trying to do any kind of art to fit in to anything else and just being yourself. We've gone out of being real cool, not real cool a bunch of times. So believing in that love: That's the key."

The Other Side of Japanese Gaming: Would the Japanese Rather ...

Real world images from Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Pikachu Sushi, a real Yakuza RPG and more in this double issue of The Other Side of Japanese Gaming!

Welcome to a special double edition of ?The Other Side of Japanese Gaming," where I?ll share with you the interesting, funny, and sometimes just plain weird part of the gaming net that rarely makes it into English. Some of the following originate in Japan, while others just trend here. Check them out below, and keep tuning in every other Tuesday for additional doses of Japanese gaming news and culture.

Super Mario World Low Score - 500 points

Now everyone has heard of high scores, whether it was getting one on a machine at your local arcade back in the day or being the top of the online leader boards today. But what about the opposite, beating the game with the lowest score possible? In this video, Nico Nico Douga user Haru@Yotsuba dusts off his copy of Super Mario World to find out.

Using an actual system (and not an emulator), he flies through the Super Famicom game following the shortest path to the end?which amounts to a total of sixteen levels. Along the way he avoids coins, Yoshi tokens, power-ups, and fruit while only killing enemies in those few ways that gain no points. In fact, the only points he receives are from breaking the finish lines at the ends of the levels?and by doing so with only one second remaining, he gains only 50 points. Now if that weren?t difficult enough, he follows the self-imposed rule of no damage, deaths, or restarts and thus completes this in a single playthrough.

Most interesting of all, the video is annotated (in Japanese) with constant explanations of how he is able to avoid gaining points and just how exactly Mario World?s point system works.

In the end, he finishes with a minuscule 500 points. The total run time of the video clocks in at just under 28 minutes, but it is truly worth a watch to see just how complicated it can be to dodge every entity in the game. But the icing on the cake? It?s not Mario he chooses to accomplish this amazing low score run, but the oft-ignored green man himself, Luigi.

More Japanese people want to buy the PlayStation Vita than the Wii U

With the release of two new game consoles looming on the horizon, Sony and Nintendo are already battling for the minds?and pockets?of the Japanese gaming public. According to an internet-based goo Research survey taken in mid-July of this year, Sony has a clear edge in the hype war as more Japanese plan to buy the new PlayStation Vita than the Wii U.

The survey started with an interesting preliminary question asking what game consoles those surveyed owned. Of the 1,087 surveyed, 687 owned at least one video game console with 62.7% owning some iteration of the DS/3DS. The next most common systems were, unsurprisingly, last generation?s PlayStation 2 (55.7%) and the world-wide, best-selling Nintendo Wii (44.6%). Bringing up the rear were the Xbox360 (3.9%), Xbox (2.8%) and PSP Go (1.5%).

Those 687 console owners were also asked the following questions: ?Do you think you?ll purchase a PlayStation Vita?? and ?Do you think you?ll purchase a Wii U??

Regarding the Vita, 15.7% responded that they want to buy it while 37.6% don?t want to buy it but are still interested. Almost 47% though, have no interest in it whatsoever. For the Wii U, on the other hand, 9.6% are planning to buy, 39.4% are interested, and 50.9% do not plan on getting one.

And what do these survey results mean overall? With approximately half of the 687 console owners indicating they do not plan on buying either the Wii U or the PlayStation Vita, the real battle for both companies is to not only prove how their system is better than their competitor's but also why these new systems are superior to their last generation counterparts.

(AP) ? Double-amputee runner Oscar Pistorius won a team silver medal Friday at the world championships despite being excluded from the starting lineup in the 4x400-meter relay final.

One day after helping South Africa qualify for the final at the world championships, Pistorius was left out of the race and watched his teammates finish second in a thrilling finale won by the United States.

"Haven't Been included in the Final for the SA Mens 4x400m. Pretty Guttered," Pistorius wrote in a Twitter message on the morning of the final.

Instead of Pistorius, the South African team decided to go with L.J. van Zyl, who won bronze in the 400-meter hurdles on Thursday. Because Pistorius ran the heats, he got the team silver medal.

"It was difficult and everyone felt guilty," Van Zyl said.

After making a historic breakthrough for Paralympic athletes by reaching the semifinals of the 400 earlier this week, the "Blade Runner" ran a strong leadoff leg on in the heats to help his team to a third-place finish and a South African record.

Still, Pistorius was bypassed for van Zyl.

"We decided before the heats that the slowest runner on the team in the prelims would not run the final," Van Zyl said. "Unfortunately, Oscar's leg was the slowest."

And after scoring South Africa's best result in the event, it was tough to argue against the decision.

"It was all down to the management," said Shane Victor, who took Pistorius' place as leadoff runner.

Pistorius' manager, Peet van Zyl, still thought his runner should have been included.

"It was a big surprise to us. It is a disappointment, needless to say, for Oscar," Peet van Zyl said. "It was the team management that made the call for reasons we don't know."

It was already considered an amazing performance for Pistorius, who had his legs amputated when he was a baby, to get into the 400 semifinals on his carbon-fiber blades before not qualifying for the final. He then ran a relay leg that got South Africa into the final of the 4x400.

The IAAF had said that Pistorius could only run the lead-off leg of the relay because athletes run in lanes. There were concerns that his blades could be a danger if he had to run in a bunch after the first leg.

Van Zyl ran the anchor leg in the final, and Victor became the leadoff runner.

Still it was another giant stride in the career of the 24-year-old runner who always refused to believe that the lack of shins, ankles and toes made him less of an athlete than able-bodied competitors.

Since childhood, he was an accomplished athlete. He became a Paralympic star and won three gold medals at the Beijing Paralympic.

Yet he always wanted to compete against the best. Now, he has a world championship silver to prove it.

NBA lockout: Players, owners meet in Manhattan

(AP) ? There's still time for a deal to keep the entire NBA season intact, though it's running out.

And with that in mind, owners and players realize it's time to stop talking about each other, and start talking to each other.

They returned to the bargaining table Wednesday, meeting for about six hours in just their second bargaining session since the league's lockout began on July 1.

"Everyone loses if we don't reach an agreement, that's something that I think has always been understood," union president Derek Fisher of the Lakers said. "But as we approach Sept. 1 and obviously the training camp schedule to start on Oct. 1, the urgency is just continuing to build and increase on both sides, and we're going to remain focused on finding a way to get this done."

Neither side offered any specifics or would say if progress was made, but said they plan many more meetings in hopes of having basketball begin without interruption.

"I don't see any benefit to characterizing our positions," Deputy Commissioner Adam Silver said, a thought repeated frequently by both sides.

"I will say we are not apart in terms of an agreed urgency on getting a deal done and we're not apart on the need to avoid missing games and we're not apart on the agreed impact that will have, not just on our teams and our players, but the communities in which they operate in as well."

Commissioner David Stern and San Antonio owner Peter Holt, head of the labor relations committee, also represented the owners at a Manhattan hotel. Executive director Billy Hunter and attorney Ron Klempner attended from the union.

The sides hadn't met since Aug. 1, despite saying they hoped to follow that with multiple sessions before the end of the month. They are far apart on major issues, but Stern said there is "clearly enough time" to make a deal that would allow the regular season to open as scheduled on Nov. 1.

He added he has no timetable for when cancelations might be necessary. The NBA quickly shot down a report this week they would happen at an owners meeting on Sept. 15.

"We don't have any deadlines in mind," Stern said. "We just have meetings in mind and discussions in mind."

Neither side would say when or where the next meetings would take place, indicating a desire for a level of privacy that has been largely absent in the process. Stern was critical of the players while meeting with the media after the Aug. 1 session, and Fisher said "things seem to get spun out of control, either by us or by them" whenever they talk specifics in the press.

"So we're just going to focus on the deal. That's all we can do," Fisher said. "We feel it's the best way to respect the process, to just try to do a better job of staying clear of that type of situation.

"We just feel that a little bit less ? or a lot less ? of talking outside of the room and more talking inside of the room is better for everyone," he added.

Fisher said there were no new proposals for a new deal. The players made the last one on June 30, an offer the league said would have increased average player salaries to nearly $7 million in the sixth year.

Owners, seeking significant salary reductions from the players after losing hundreds of millions of dollars in each year of the previous CBA, imposed the lockout hours later, and nothing much has happened since.

Stern set Labor Day weekend as an unofficial deadline for when progress needed to be made during an ESPN.com podcast earlier this month.

So, is he satisfied?

"We had a meeting before Labor Day and agreed that we would continue to meet," Stern said.

Following the schedule from the 1998 lockout, the only time the NBA lost games to a work stoppage, the NBA has a couple of weeks before anything is in jeopardy. The start of camps, then scheduled for Oct. 5, were postponed on Sept. 24, and the first preseason games weren't called off until Oct. 6.

The first exhibition games this year are set for Oct. 9, and maybe they can still happen.

"It's very obvious that coming out of the lockout being July 1 and into this part of August, it's very clear both sides are feeling a sense of urgency," Fisher said. "We're very focused on getting a deal done and that's how we'll proceed from this point going forward."

Questions and Answers | BusinessWest

, entity
Jeffrey Fialky

Jeffrey Fialky

Individuals forming new business enterprises, or perhaps those whose business enterprises have matured to the standpoint of pursuing the next level, often approach their accountants and attorneys when considering whether or not to incorporate.
Really, the term ?incorporate? is euphemistic for whether an individual, and in some cases multiple business partners, should proceed (or continue to proceed) on their own behalf or, alternatively, form a limited-liability entity pursuant to the laws of the respective jurisdiction. The question of whether to engage in business operations in an individual capacity or to form a limited-liability entity within which to conduct business operations is generally a question answered by a thorough analysis of the respective liabilities and tax implications.

Sole Proprietorship
The simplest manner of doing business is in the form of a sole proprietorship. That said, a sole proprietorship is a bit misleading by name, in that it is not a business entity, but rather the absence of a business entity.
There are no registration or filing requirements, and simply engaging in the business operation commences the sole proprietorship, in the individual?s own name, or on their own behalf. As a result, an individual who engages in a business practice as a sole proprietor personally exposes himself to any liabilities that could arise as a result of such business operations without any legal protection from same.
While an individual doing business as a sole proprietor may register a fictitious name in which to conduct his or her business by filing a DBA certificate in the community in which the business operates, from a legal standpoint, the fact that the business operates pursuant to a fictitious name has no bearing or legal effect relative to liability. By way of example, assume Joe Smith, d/b/a XYS Construction, is named in a lawsuit as a result of an injury occurring to a third party on a job site. A judgment against Joe, personally, could certainly result in a lien against Joe?s personal residence, subject to subsequent sale in order to satisfy such judgment.

General Partnership
Another form of business operation is a general partnership. This consists of essentially two or more individual sole proprietors engaging in business operations in a joint capacity. Often, a general partnership will be governed pursuant to the terms of a partnership agreement; however, such as with a sole proprietorship, there is no formal legal registration requirement.
Additionally, as with a sole proprietorship, the general partnership does not protect the individual partners from personal liability arising out of the business operations. Worse, partners pursuant to a general partnership are not only liable personally for their own acts or omissions relative to the ongoing business venture, but, additionally, each individual is personally liable for the acts of other partners in the partnership.

Corporation
For many reasons, including avoiding the personal liability attributed to sole proprietorships and general partnerships, parties are often counseled to consider forming limited-liability legal entities, which provide a barrier of protection for the business owners.
Among the host of legal entities available for formation, the most commonly used in contemporary business are the corporation and limited-liability company (LLC). That said, the term ?corporation,? as generally used, often includes two specific types of corporations ?? subchapter ?C? corporations (C corps) and subchapter ?S? corporations (S corps), the distinction between which arises pursuant to the respective subchapter of the IRS tax code.
Generally speaking, a corporation is a legal entity that is formed by the filing of articles of organization, is governed by its bylaws, and which is owned by its stockholders. Corporations are managed by their board of directors, with day-to-day operations overseen by their officers. Unlike a sole proprietorship or general partnership, a corporation is an independent legal identity, which is independent from that of its stockholders. Accordingly, a substantial degree of protection is afforded to owners of the corporation relative to liabilities arising as a result of the ongoing business operations of the corporation. The tax treatment of a corporation, including the potential tax effect on individual stockholders, varies in accordance with the nature of the corporation formed, specifically whether it is a C corp or an S corp.

C Corporations
Subchapter C corporations, or C corps, enjoy the benefits of limited liability for stockholders, and are operated pursuant to the traditional corporate formality of being governed by their directors and officers. One significant potential tax disadvantage to C corps, however, is the potential for double taxation of corporate earnings. C corps pay tax on income at the corporate level, and in the event that earnings are distributed to stockholders as dividends, the dividends are often subject to tax at the individual shareholder level upon distribution. This so-called potential for ?double taxation? can often be avoided by forward thinking and anticipatory tax planning.

S Corporations
Unlike C corps, subchapter S corporations, or S corps, while providing many of the advantages of the limited liability corporate structure as provided by a C corporation, have the added advantage of not being subject to the potential for double taxation. In fact, income and losses from the business flow through to the individual stockholders and are reported on their personal tax returns. That said, S corps are subject to their own specific limitations and potential disadvantages, most notably the fact that they are limited to a maximum number of stockholders, that stockholders generally must be individuals as opposed to other legal entities, that the S corporation may not have more than one class of stock (e.g. common vs. preferred), and that distributions must be in direct percentage to ownership interest.

LLC
Another commonly utilized business entity is the limited liability company (LLC), which is an entity that shares many characteristics of sole proprietorships and general partnerships, but with the limited liability protection afforded to corporations. The LLC, much like a corporation, is formed by the filing with the secretary of the respective state jurisdiction, with a simple certificate of organization filing, and payment of the respective registration fee. Unlike a corporation, which is owned by its stockholders, LLCs are owned by its member or members, as opposed to directors and officers, and managed by their manager or managers.
LLCs afford a great degree of flexibility in that most states have enacted a limited-liability company act permitting LLCs to be owned by a single member, to have multiple classes of membership (e.g. common vs. preferred), and to determine the capital structure, ownership, and management, all as determined by the business owners. Additionally, unlike S corps, profits and losses may be allocated in a manner that is disproportionate to direct percentages of ownership interests.
Unlike a corporation, which is operated pursuant to its articles and bylaws, LLCs are operated pursuant to a document called an operating agreement, which is a recitation of the respective rights and obligations of each member and manager of the LLC.
Members of an LLC have additional flexibility relative to taxation in that members can be taxed much like a sole proprietor or like a partnership, although distributions to members may be subject to self-employment taxes.
As a result of the flexibility of LLCs and the avoidance of the potential for double taxation, they provide ideal entities for the purposes of taking title to real-estate holdings and investments. For similar reasons, LLCs are additionally valuable tools for estate-planning purposes.

In Summation
As you can see, the determination of whether to form a limited liability entity and, if so, the choice of entity itself, is a fact-dependent analysis. Naturally, consultation with legal and tax professionals is recommended to ensure that you may enjoy the maximum level of liability protection and the most favorable tax consequences for your situation.
