Jackson “Jax” Teller, the antihero at the heart of FX’s blockbuster biker gang series Sons of Anarchy, is pretty easy to distinguish from a traditional hero. Just this season, Jax blew away a rival gang with an RPG missile, shot a Russian gangster in the head and got into some serious trouble while selling guns to the scariest gangsters on the planet.
Jax Teller is the leading edge of an increasingly extreme crop of these antiheroes: characters the audience likes and wants to see succeed, even though they act an awful lot like villains.

But for Walters, the iconic 56-year-old Apple co-founder and former CEO topped her list.

LOS ANGELES — Shush, already. That’s the message the Federal Communications Commission is sending with new rules that force broadcast, cable and satellite companies to turn down the volume on blaring TV commercials.
On Tuesday, the FCC passed a set of regulations that will prevent commercials from being louder than the shows around them. It’s all part of the Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation (or CALM) Act, which President Obama signed into law last December. The rules go into effect a year from now. Companies that don’t comply will face unspecified FCC action.
Thunderous television ads have annoyed viewers for years.
