Pricey Object Of SAP's Desire

By Arindam Nag // A DOW JONES NEWSWIRES COLUMN LONDON (Dow Jones)--Bidding for Business Objects is one of the more audacious moves in SAP's history as the German software company takes the fight closer to main U.S. rival Oracle. But the timing looks odd, and the EUR4.8 billion that SAP is paying for the French supplier of business-intelligence software is high. The German company has agreed a bid worth a punchy 28X forward earnings for a company with a faltering growth outlook, underlined by weak third-quarter earnings below the analyst consensus.

Linkin Park's Minutes to Midnight. Don't stop Rock Opera.

Linkin Park returned to the recording studios in 2006 to work on new material. To produce the album, the band chose popular producer Rick Rubin. Despite initially stating the album would debut sometime in 2006, the album was pushed off to 2007. The band had recorded thirty to fifty songs in August of 2006, when Shinoda stated the album was halfway completed. Bennington later added that the new album would stray away from their previous nu metal sound. Warner Bros. Records officially announced that the band’s third studio album, entitled Minutes to Midnight, would be released on May 15, 2007 in the United States. After spending fourteen months working on the album, the band opted to further refine their album by removing five of the original seventeen tracks. Minutes to Midnight sold over 600,000 copies in its first week, making it one of the most successful debut week albums in recent years. The album also captured the top spot on the Billboard Charts.

The album's first single, "What I've Done" was released on April 2, and later premiered on MTV and Fuse within the same week. The single was acclaimed by listeners, reaching the Billboard Hot 100 days after its debut, and later was the top-ranked song on the Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks and Mainstream Rock Tracks charts. Bleed It Out was confirmed to be the second single from Minutes to Midnight, and will be released August 20, 2007.

Linkin Park performed at Live Earth Japan on July 7, 2007. The band is currently touring on their fourth Projekt Revolution tour. (W)

Disney-MGM became Disney's Hollywood

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. - Disney-MGM Studios is changing its name to Disney's Hollywood Studios, starting January 2008.

"The new name reflects how the park has grown from representing the golden age of movies to a celebration of the new entertainment that today's Hollywood has to offer — in music, television, movies and theater," said Walt Disney World Resort president Meg Crofton in a statement.

"As a park all about entertainment, Disney's Hollywood Studios will deliver like never before. Now we can say that Hollywood is literally our middle name," Crofton wrote.

The park opened May 1, 1989. (via Y!)
