A Positively Giddy Albert Brooks on His Golden Globe Nomination
"I actually found out about it on Twitter."
The only entry in today's Golden Globe nominations for critics' darling Drive was for supporting actor Albert Brooks, who surprised audiences this past fall with his dark turn as the gangster Bernie Rose. This is Brooks's first Golden Globe nod, but not his first awards race: He was previously nominated for an Oscar for his supporting role in Broadcast News in 1987. Since then, he's had some ideas about how to mount a successful campaign, and he chatted with Vulture soon after the nominations were announced today to discuss just how serious of a threat he's prepared to be this time around.
Congratulations on your first ever Golden Globe nomination! I'm surprised at the restraint you've had about it on Twitter so far.
Thank you! I actually found out about it on Twitter. I have to figure out what I'm going to say. Believe me, this Twitter thing is reducing me to a Borscht Belt comic! I've got to put a little effort into it. I try to do the best free product I can. And yet, still, I get people going, "Hey! That wasn't your best!" Hey! Go die! Go get something for free somewhere else! [Laughs.]
Well, it certainly looks like the letter your team sent out about the SAG snub did the trick. Maybe an Oscar nomination is next.
You know, I don't know anybody who votes for anybody for these things. I'm a member of the Academy, but I don't know who all the other Academy members are. It's not like a politician who knows who is in the Iowa caucus.
Maybe they need some campaign reform for awards season. Exit polls, or something.
You know, I wanted to make a mock documentary about that exact thing! I swear to God. I wanted to open up a campaign headquarters on Wilshire and debate Philip Seymour Hoffman, and make campaign promises like, "Vote for me, and we'll do a shorter show!" "If we get swag, you should get swag." I never did it, though. I thought it would break some rule and they would throw me out of the Academy. But we could do that this year. I'd be happy to debate [fellow nominees Christopher Plummer, Viggo Mortensen, Kenneth Branagh, and Jonah Hill]. All we need are the posters.
The other nominees might be afraid to debate you in person now that they've seen what you can do with a knife and fork in Drive.
Hmmm. Murder is still illegal, right?
Or if they knew you nearly killed someone on your first day of the shoot, choking him to the point of unconsciousness for a scene that didn't even make the movie.
Yeah, I'm sure Ben Marley's telling people about me choking him, too — if he can still talk. [Laughs.] I did a Hollywood Reporter roundtable with Christopher Plummer the other day, and he's a ball. Maybe I can wrestle him. I'll beat the shit out of them all. I don't know about the awards race, but physically, I'll take them. I'll get in the ring. You know, playing Bernie Rose worked really well for my kids. I walk into their room with a salad fork, and homework gets done. [Laughs.] It was fun to explore a side that's been dormant in me. But it's still hard to convince people — it took a Danish director to see that. It's always the same six people on the list that goes round, like it's a baseball team and you're trying to break on to the field: "Hey, Brooks killed a guy really believably. Let's see if Brooks wants to kill the dog." I'm the guy who cast Garry Marshall as a casino boss [in Lost in America]. That was one of the best scenes, because real nasty people don't always seem nasty. When do they ever say, "I knew he was a serial killer from the moment he moved in"? No. They always say, "He was the sweetest guy. He took his trash out." Like on Homeland — if Brody came back and acted like an American Abu Nazir, he'd be in jail in two weeks. I can't wait to see the finale of that show and where they'll go in another year. They can't all be dead.
Would you want to guest-star on Homeland, perhaps for season two?
No. You can't guest-star in your pajamas.
Do you feel like Drive has anything in common with your first film, Taxi Driver? That you've come full circle?
I wasn't the violent one in Taxi Driver, I was the pussy. Bernie's not a pussy. [Laughs.] Although there are many moments in Drive, with the slo-mo shots and when he's not saying anything and there's blood on his clothes, that it actually looks like Taxi Driver. You know what it is, the reason so many 18-year-olds, 19-year-olds are saying Drive is their favorite movie is that Drive is a 90-minute trip into what a lot of seventies filmmaking was. It encapsulates the best of a certain kind of style, and a style that a lot of people haven't seen before, with the music and the way it's edited. It's very beautiful and cinematic and lyrical. I was very impressed. A movie like this can go 50 other ways, if you just imagine a different score, or three more crashes.
Such as when that woman sued because she wanted more crashes.
Would nobody give her the $9 back? I sent her $3 — because I'm the supporting actor. I'm just being supportive. [Laughs.]
Has Nicolas Winding Refn tried to lure you for any of his other upcoming movies?
He's off in Bangkok right now for a kickboxing movie [Only God Forgives], and he offered me a two-day part in that, for a guy who gets his tongue ripped out. I said I'm not going to Bangkok for that. Ryan [Gosling]'s working with him again for that. And I like them. I had a good experience. Nicolas wants me to write a movie for Ryan, and he says, "Put a part in it for yourself." So he thinks that's what's happening, between you and me. [Laughs.] The truth of it is, that's why I write my own scripts, because it's hard to find anything I really like, especially nowadays. I'm not throwing away scripts just because they're comedies — I'm playing Paul Rudd's father in This Is Forty — but that's because I wanted to be in a movie that Judd [Apatow] directed. And I like Paul.
One of the roles you turned down over the years was in Pretty Woman — the Julia Roberts part, right?
Well, I was pretty in my day, honey! [Laughs.]
Thank you for basking in the glow of your Golden Globe nomination with us.
I'll go, and I'll look sad if I don't win. You have to practice that look for the square on the screen. You're supposed to look happy or grateful, but it would be great if you could just see someone leave when they don't win: "Come on, honey. Let's get out of here." [Laughs.]

New Export Orders Stabilizes Turkish Output in August
The seasonally adjusted HSBC Turkey Manufacturing PMI showed manufacturing output in the country has maintained its level compared to a month ago as lower new orders offset modest increase in export orders.
New orders decreased for the third time in the past four months, although the latest reduction was only marginal and slower than that recorded in July. Manufacturers in Turkey reported that difficult market conditions had been behind the contraction.
New export orders increased, however, as companies indicated that they had made a concerted effort to generate sales in export markets.
With new orders decreasing, firms worked through outstanding business again in August. The pace of depletion was solid, but slowed to the weakest since February. Backlog depletion and capacity expansions led to a stabilisation of production during the month.
Output was broadly unchanged, following a decrease in July.
Part of the improvement in capacity was generated by a further rise in employment at Turkish manufacturing
firms. Staffing levels have now increased in each of the past 39 months, although the rate of job creation
remained only modest in August.
In line with company expansion plans, Turkish manufacturers raised their purchasing activity, although the pace of increase slowed. Higher input buying has now been recorded in three successive months.
A further increase in input prices was registered, extending the current sequence of inflation to 39 months. Although the rate of inflation quickened in August, it remained weaker than the series average.
Where input costs rose, respondents signalled higher raw material prices, while some noted increased import
costs as a result of unfavourable exchange rate movements. Meanwhile, firms left their prices charged unchanged over the month, following a slight fall in July.
Suppliers' delivery times lengthened for the seventh month running in August, albeit at a reduced pace. Some respondents indicated that low stock levels at vendors had led to longer lead times.
Stocks of purchases, meanwhile, decreased at a solid pace. The reduction in pre-production inventories was the first in three months. Stocks of finished goods also decreased. That said, the pace of depletion was
Melis Metiner, Economist at HSBC, said: "Between June and July, both industrial confidence and capacity utilisation were near unchanged in Turkey, while August saw a more pronounced deterioration in industrial confidence.
"In August, input prices rose at a faster pace for the second month in a row, with participants referring to the higher cost of chemicals, copper and wheat in particular. Output prices were unchanged during the month. Input inflation is likely to rise further in Q3, if both agricultural commodity and energy prices continue to climb. This could put pressure on producers' margins: domestic demand is clearly losing pace, so producers may not have much room to pass on rising costs."

1. Why is a prenatal multivitamin important?
A: A daily prenatal multivitamin supplement is extremely important because it can serve as some dietary insurance, guaranteeing that both the baby and mother wont be cheated if the nutritional targets are not reached through diet alone. Of course, even the best multivitamin can NOT take place of a good prenatal diet rich in fresh foods, but it is very helpful since it is difficult to get a nutritionally perfect diet every day, especially early in pregnancy when morning sickness, nausea and food aversion are common. It is also important to help reduce the risk of certain birth abnormalities, such as neural tube defects.
2. What is VITMIN CODE RAW Prenatal?
A: VITMIN CODE RAW Prenatal is a multivitamin and mineral supplement that is formulated to address two elements of maternal and fetal health: it contains vitamins and minerals to reduce the risk of birth defects and congenital abnormalities typically associated with vitamin deficiencies, and it contains the probiotic organism Lactobacillus rhamnosus to support the immune system of both mother and baby. RAW Prenatal provides a comprehensive panel of nutrients needed to support a healthy pregnancy, including RAW Food-Created Nutrients, for targeted delivery of essential vitamins and minerals to support the babys healthy development and the mothers extraordinary health.
3. What are RAW Food-Created Nutrients?
A: The RAW Food-Created Nutrients in Vitamin Code formulas are individually cultivated with their unique Code Factors intact, enabling targeted delivery and natural recognition of nutrients by the body. Imagine growing a plant in the garden, and adding extra vitamin A to the soil to yield a plant rich in vitamin A. The yeast or bacteria is cultivated in water and fed a vitamin to yield a food-based yeast or probiotic matrix that is rich in that particular vitamin. Raw Food-Created Nutrients are grown in both S. cerevisiae (bakers yeast) and the probiotic Lactobacillus bulgaricus to provide a broader spectrum of Code Factors.
4. Who can benefit form taking RAW Prenatal?
A: Most people think that a prenatal supplement is exclusively formulated for pregnant women. Healthy nutrient intake is vital prior, during, and after child birth. Because pregnant and lactating women are constantly feeding their child from their body's own nutrients, a plentiful and regular supply of vitamins and minerals is essential. Vitamin Code RAW Prenatal formula is specifically designed to meet the unique needs of women during preconception, pregnancy and lactation.
5. Why is RAW Prenatal suggested before pregnancy?
A: Whether a woman is planning to get pregnant or not, she may not be aware of her condition for at least 2 to 3 weeks after conception; women who have irregular periods may even take longer to suspect they are pregnant. Proper folic acid supplementation is suggested at least two months before conceiving. Studies show that adequate intake of this vitamin before conception and early pregnancy can dramatically reduce the risk of neural tube defects in the developing infant.
6. Why is RAW Prenatal suggested while nursing?
A: It is important to continue the usage of a prenatal multivitamin during lactation. Breast feeding can take a physical toll on a womans body. Milk production does require a great deal of the body's energy and resources. Breast-feeding mothers burn almost 500 additional calories daily (equivalent to running about four to five miles a day). Most importantly, babies that are exclusively breastfed rely solely on their mothers breast milk for nutrition.
7. Is there a particular RDI (Recommended Daily Intake) for pregnancy?
A: There are no standards set by the FDA, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, or the National Academy of Sciences specifying exactly what must be in a Prenatal Supplement, however some studies indicate that higher amounts of folic acid are needed to prevent neural tube defects. Other nutrients that play a critical role in pregnancy are iron, vitamin B12, calcium and vitamin D for calcium absorption.
8. Why is folic acid so important before and during pregnancy?
A: Folic acid is a B vitamin used to make new cells, including those that will form the brain, spine, organs, skin and bones of a baby. Getting enough folic acid is critical both before and during pregnancy to help assure proper growth and to prevent birth defects. The FDA recommends that women of childbearing age consume at least 400mcg of folic acid daily to help prevent neural tube defects in children should they become pregnant. Some studies indicate that higher amounts of folic acid are needed for some women to achieve optimal blood levels. RAW Prenatal includes 800mcg (200% DV) of RAW Food-Created folic acid.
9. What role does iron play during pregnancy?
A: Iron is needed more during the 9 months of pregnancy than any other time in a womans life. Blood volume increases up to 50 percent in pregnancy therefore greater amounts of iron are required. It is essential for the developing blood supply of the fetus and for the mothers expanding blood supply and placenta, as well as the formation of healthy red blood cells. Iron will be also stored by the fetus for use during the first six months of life. High levels of iron in supplements can upset the gastrointestinal tract, leading to constipation, which is already a problem for many pregnant women. RAW Prenatal includes 18mg (100% DV) of RAW Food-Chelated Iron, which is mykinder on the digestive system and less likely to lead to problems such as constipation.
10. What are RAW Food-Chelated Minerals?
A: Chelation is a naturally occurring process in the body for transporting minerals across the intestinal wall during digestion. Common inorganic forms of trace minerals may interact with lipids, proteins, fiber or other minerals, inhibiting absorption. When minerals are bound to chelating agents such as amino acids, they become more stable and are much less reactive in the digestive tract. RAW Food-Chelated Minerals are minerals that have been bound to raw rice amino acids making their structure more akin to food, designed to enhance mineral absorption and improve bioavailability.
11. Why does RAW Prenatal include ginger?
A: RAW Prenatal provides ginger, which has been traditionally used to ease the common digestive discomforts typically associated with pregnancy, such as morning sickness.

New guidelines create NOW moment for advocacy
However, many of us involved in healthcare realize this could mark the beginning of a critical chapter in public health advocacy.This incident strikes at the core of the myriad healthcare issues that are being discussed and debated throughout America and speaks to the complexity of how these issues are being considered by the public.
Although changes to such well-established guidelines such as these resulted in dismay, it is inevitable that such guidelines will now be revisited more often.To this end, they will be done so not just to assess standard of care but also to address financial burden to the system. Medical guidelines that were originally devised to rely on science rigor can now also be influenced by politics and economic dictates.
Hopefully, public health advocates will hear the USPSTF announcement as a clarion call. It is time to take seriously the advocate's role in helping to ensure that medical needs are not being compromised in the short-term interest of simply saving the system money.The USPTF made its decision entirely based on an analysis of data regarding the number of potential lives saved, without consideration for the expertise and knowledge the advocacy community has acquired over the past 30 years of working in this space.
Indeed, the American Cancer Society and other advocacy organizations stepped up in response to the USPSTF change in guidelines and the public saw a swift and immediate shift in position.The ability of advocacy to understand the dynamics of the patient community and to motivate behavioral change to the best interests of that community should be embraced and employed to the advantage of all. Health advocates will be needed to assume this role—now more than ever.

Acadia is a land deeply imbued with history. Its present status is that of a minority, a "country" with vague outlines but a vigorous spirit. Its territorial origin follows the French colonial efforts in the early 17th century. The first permanent agricultural settlements in what is now Canada occurred there.
Tofino, British Columbia, incorporated as a municipality in 1932 and as a district in 1982, population 1,932 (2016 census), 1,876 (2011 census). The community of Tofino is located on the west coast of Vancouver Island, 317 km northwest of Victoria by road, on the northern tip of the Esowista Peninsula and the south side of Clayoquot Sound. The district encompasses an area of 19.09 km2 within the Clayoquot Sound Biosphere Reserve. Tofino developed around fishing and logging industries and is now a popular tourist destination, sought for its natural beauty and outdoor recreation.
A delta is a deposit of sediment at the mouth of a river that accumulates as the river flows into a standing body of water such as a lake or ocean. Because sediment tends to be rich in nutrients, deltas become fertile wetlands inhabited by diverse wildlife. Among the largest deltas in Canada are those of the Mackenzie and Saskatchewan rivers, as well as the Peace-Athabasca Delta (where the Peace, Athabasca and Birch rivers meet). Certain deltas offer advantageous access to natural resources and maritime transportation, but development projects are often controversial due to the ecological importance of these environments.
Swissair Flight 111 crashed in the sea off Peggy's Cove, NS on 2 September 1998, while on a scheduled flight from New York to Geneva, Switzerland. All 229 passengers and crew were killed. It was the second-deadliest air accident to occur in Canada. An investigation by Canada's Transportation Safety Board determined that a fire, sparked by arcing in the MD-11 aircraft's electrical system, resulted in a catastrophic failure of the plane's main operating systems.
British Columbia is Canada's most westerly province, and is a mountainous area whose population is mainly clustered in its southwestern corner. BC is Canada's third-largest province after Québec and Ontario, making up 10 per cent of Canada's land surface. British Columbia is a land of diversity and contrast within small areas. Coastal landscapes, characterized by high, snow-covered mountains rising above narrow fjords and inlets, contrast with the broad forested upland of the central interior and the plains of the northeast. The intense "Britishness" of earlier times is referred to in the province's name, which originated with Queen Victoria and was officially proclaimed in 1858.1
Bonavista Bay is an inlet on the Atlantic coast of Newfoundland between Cape Freels and Cape Bonavista. Roughly 65 km wide, it contains a large number of densely forested islands that shelter the mainland from northeasterly winds and create hundreds of kilometres of virtually landlocked waters.
Saanich Peninsula, BC, forms part of the Nanaimo Lowlands, along Vancouver Island's east coast. It extends from Sidney in the north to Victoria in the south, and is 33 km long and averages 4 km in width; 90 per cent of its perimeter is fronted by sea. The dominant geographical features are Mount Newton and Saanich Inlet.

Matt Holliday and David Freese served as ringleaders of the marketing campaign a year ago and Allen Craig was added as a third co-chair for 2013.
The project raised more than $480,000 dollars during the first year in 2012. Fans can pledge as little as 25 cents per home run and credit cards are billed at the All-Star break and then again after the season for the number of home runs the Cardinals hit.
Starting March 15, pledge forms will be available at all Dierbergs and Johnny Mac's locations.
A new twist to this year's campaign is a special Game Ball Relay event on Opening Day April 8 in which the game ball will travel throughout the streets of St. Louis by more than 200 runners before reaching home plate just before first pitch against the Cincinnati Reds.
For more information and to make a pledge on Cardinal Glennon's website.

We are pleased to see the overwhelming demand for Rozee's services and are humbled by its popularity with large multinational organizations such as Microsoft, Pepsi, Oracle and McDonalds
(PRWEB) March 9, 2007
Rozee.pk, the top jobs portal of Pakistan has seen an 800% growth in traffic over the past one year to become one of the most visited sites in Pakistan. With the massive global demand for IT man power and the move of multinationals to Pakistan as an "offshore destination", the prospects for IT professionals have never been better. Pakistan's strong growth rate, infrastructure development and formal IT policy has increased domestic demand as well. Fortunately for the employers, Pakistan's large computer literate, English speaking population is a steady source of engineers.
Traditionally, there was a lot of distortion in the Pakistan job market place due to inefficiencies. The traditional media such as newspapers could not cope with the rapid paced jobs market and therefore caused unnecessary churn. Rozee.pk, with its experience in muslim social networking through its parent company Naseeb Networks fast job search algorithm as well as innovative services for job seekers has made the marketplace very transparent.
The employers too have noticed the return on investment of advertising on Rozee.pk. In addition to the top multinational companies, the top tier domestic companies like Mobilink and UBL have signed contracts with Rozee.pk. All in all, well over 3000 companies advertise with Rozee.pk, making it by far the most popular site in Pakistan. Rozee.pk is just as popular with the job seekers, dominating the space with over 400,000 job applicants.
As the jobs in Pakistan have grown, Rozee.pk has been keeping pace by offering a customized newsletter and resume builder for job seekers. Rozee.pk has augmented its online marketing reach with offline events such as the popular annual Rozee.pk Job Fair in all the major cities of Pakistan. This allows people seeking jobs in Lahore as well as careers in Karachi and IT jobs Islamabad to meet the employers in a professional setting.
"Given the competition for Engineers and QA professionals in the US, we have had to move some of our functions to Pakistan" said Zafar Khan, CEO of Sofizar Inc.
"Our tickets comparison search engine is growing at 25% a month rate and we use Rozee.pk on a daily basis to keep up with our hiring needs". While we have tried other jobs sites as well as hiring mailing lists, Rozee has consistently provided us the best response. Zafar Khan intends to attend the job fair in Lahore again this year after its resounding success last year with his hiring needs.
"Rozee.pk started out as a site for us to hire efficiently for Naseeb" said Monis Rahman CEO of Rozee.pk. "We are pleased to see the overwhelming demand for Rozee's services and are humbled by its popularity with large multinational organizations such as Microsoft, Pepsi, Oracle and McDonalds". Monis sees strong growth for the Pakistan jobs market as well as for Rozee.pk.
About Rozee.pk:
Rozee.pk is Pakistan's largest job site that connects talent with opportunity. Rozee.pk is committed to developing professional careers in Pakistan. It is provided as a free service to job seekers as well as employers to help facilitate hiring and job searching.

I am not sure when the first show started. There is mention of a country show being held in Hamley Bridge in 1882 in the South Australian Advertiser, but the first official annual Hamley Bridge Show run by the Hamley Bridge Agricultural, Horticultural and Floricultural Society, was held in 1903. The HBS became a very popular country show attracting around 2,000 people each year. The Society purchased 13 acres of land for the show to be held on, and was the only show at the time to be self-funded and not receive tax-payers money in Government grants. After the 1913 HBS, the show was halted during the war years and the depression years. It resumed again in 1946, after a 33 year break, and was opened by The Premier, Thomas Playford and was attended by over 2,000 people.
During the 1930's, a Flower and Handicraft Show, was run instead.
1968 is when the last Hamley Bridge Show was held.
1904 Advert of the train times for the Hamley Bridge Show
There are so many shows to choose from, I will highlight on the 1904 show, as I have a photo of part the crowd!
1904 – part of the crowd attending the Hamley Bridge Show
HAMLEY BRIDGE SHOW - September 1904
Hamley Bridge, the junction of the northern and north-eastern railway systems until four years ago was unable to boast of a show. Then a floral and industrial society held its first exhibition in 1903. This body developed into an agricultural society, and having acquired suitable grounds, conducted a full-fledged country show. Though the success of last year's event was much marred, by wet weather, the ideal atmospheric, conditions which prevailed on Friday, when the second annual show on the new grounds took place, fully compensated for the previous failure. A young society, it is going ahead by leaps and bounds, and its show is certain in the near future to rank among the important northern fixtures. The grounds are 13 acres in extent, and situated at the northern end of the town. The arena, which is suitably fenced, is an admirable one, the reserve being planted with ornamental trees, which in a few years ought to render it very attractive. Recently the iron pavilion has been increased to 50ft. x 70ft., and water is laid on at various points on the property.
Photo taken in 2001 – looks a bit sad and neglected
The attendance, the entries, and the show in general turned out to be records in every particular, for a good deal of which the society has to thank its hard-working and cool-headed secretary (Mr. M. Finey). The horses provided a very good ring display. Roadsters were prominent, and the jumping proved interesting. There were no high fences to be negotiated, but what jumping there was, was clean, no falls whatever being noticed. Some excellent ponies were seen, some of which were prize takers at Adelaide. Harvesting machinery was fairly well represented. The dairy produce was first class, and the judges considered it worthy of the Adelaide show. The entries were thrice those of last year. Butter, as well as bacon, was particularly fine. The prize merino wool was specially noteworthy for its fine texture and weight. Wheat and chaff were of fair quality and the collections of green fodder very creditable. Rye grass was shown over 6 ft. in height. Vegetables varied considerably in quality, as is usually noticed at northern exhibitions. The flower exhibits were on the whole of a high character.
In the poultry section there were 250 entries of fowls alone, the Game birds being particularly good. A similar remark applied to Wyandottes, Orpingtons, Leghorns, Plymouth Rocks, and Malays. Some exhibitors of breeding pens, containing a cock and three hens, showed as many as four varieties in one cage, instead of placing birds of one sort together. In ducks and geese competition was restricted. Dogs were fairly numerous. Features of the inside show were the displays of cookery, art, and school work. The art collection was stronger than last year, both numerically and in point of quality. The judge of the school work (Mr. H. A. Curtis) considered all the exhibits of great credit to the teachers, and he specially commended Miss Venning, of the Alma North school, and Miss Cameron, of Dalkey Hill. The Marrabel school also met with considerable success.
During, the afternoon the Hamley Bridge Brass Band discoursed some good music, and in the evening an entertainment was given in the new Institute Hall. The officials of the society are:-
President, Mr. J. Black; vice-president, Mr. J. Doyle; executive committee, Dr. Dawkins, Messrs. M. McCabe, J. Freebairn, J. Bell, J. G. Traeger, R. P. Hoepner, A. G. Brock, J. Tamblyn, A. P. Buckerfield, F. J. Hill, J. T. Quinn, and F. Bohnsack.

Liverpool and Chelsea collide in the first leg of the Capital One Cup semi final at Anfield with both teams in fantastic form.
The Blues were rampant against Swansea at the weekend wining 5-0 thanks to goals from Costa, Oscar and Schurrle.
Liverpool on the other hand defeated Aston Villa away from home with Borini and Lambert on the score sheet.
Expect both sides to start a strong side taking into consideration that there is no league football till 31st January.
Blues defeated Liverpool when both sides met in the league at Anfield this season and will hope for a similar performance.
However, Liverpool have largely improved their form and have won 4 of the last 5 league games. Liverpool have won the league cup record eight times
Their defensive record has been one of the best since the turn of the year as well and Reds have all the reason to be confident of beating Chelsea.
Here is how Chelsea may line up vs Liverpool.

This is the new full-length trailer for JJ Abrams' Star Trek movie being shown in front of Quantum of Solace this weekend. Granted the video was taped in theater, but it's not a bad bootleg at all.
I've never watched more than three episodes of Star Trek in my life and wouldn't know a Klingon from a Romulan, but I'll be damned if this isn't the best trailer I've seen in a while. I'm loving Zach Quinto as Spock and Laguna Beach Kirk is even growing on me after this. I can't wait to see it in high quality.

"Forget about what's happened; don't keep going over old history. Be alert, be present. I'm about to do something brand-new. It's bursting out! Don't you see it?" -Isaiah 43: 18, 19
This morning we are at Linwood House in the final stages of preparation for our spring Journey, which is set to begin this afternoon. A team has assembled here busying themselves to create a welcoming, sacred space for our friends from the downtown Eastside. Cakes are baking, flowers are arranged, cleaning is finished, pillows are fluffed, and prayers are being whispered that these next three days together will be rich with rest, friendship, healing and the touch of God.
Spring, the earliest moments of this season, invite us to really look closely at the tiniest beauty unfolding around us. Life - our stories - call us to do the same. To train our hearts and minds to see and experience the beauty in our brokenness, "bouquets of roses instead of ashes".
This week we invite you to journey with us, as we journey here, looking closely for the beauty in each other, in our stories, and in ourselves.
Check back for some post Journey reflections, but until then, we are so grateful for your encouragement, support and prayers.

July 13, 2017 08:30 ET
NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Jul 13, 2017) - NetworkNewsWire ("NNW"), a multifaceted financial news and publishing company that delivers a new generation of social communication solutions for business, today announces the online availability of its interview with Converde Energy USA (OTC: XFUL), a diversified energy company doing business as American Energy Partners, Inc.
The interview can be heard at https://www.networknewswire.com/solutions/corporate-communications/interviews/converde-energy-usa-interview/
Kicking off the interview, NNW's Stuart Smith introduces Josh C. Hickman, president of Gilbert Oil & Gas, LLC, one of three wholly owned XFUL subsidiaries.
Gilbert Oil & Gas is focused on the acquisition of cash flow properties and assets that include non-operating oil wells, service companies, engineering service companies, and other assets on track to be cash flow positive.
As Hickman describes, XFUL, through its Hydration Corporation and American Energy Solutions companies, is also involved in water ownership and water treatment technologies for a variety of markets.
"The market for water ownership, as well as water treatment, is extremely large as you look at farming municipalities, factory, and power production, which is more of what those two companies are focused on," he explains in the interview.
An exploration geologist for the oil & gas industry by trade, Hickman describes how his 15 years of experience fits into XFUL's business strategy.
"It's simply been evaluating and figuring out the best values for business models, assisting startup companies in the oil and gas sphere, getting on their feet with proper properties and assets and business plans, as well as understanding the value of oil and gas properties for private owners as well. It's been a very diverse background that has allowed me to see and start six different entities now," he says. "Going from zero to 100 miles an hour has been very successful piece of our business and we look forward to applying these talents full time with this company."
Hickman next describes XFUL's corporate history, and how several key milestones have positioned the company where it is today, despite industry setbacks in 2016.
"It is excellent to be in the position that I am with Gilbert and with American Energy Partners. The timing could not be better for investments and new capital flow into this market. It is certainly a game change after 2016 and how much the revenues and the amount of deals have fallen. It is so nice to be a part of making deals happen once again in the oil and gas market. Truly, it couldn't be a better time for investments," he concludes.
About Converde Energy USA, Inc. (XFUL)
XFUL and its group of companies focus on providing solutions in markets where energy production and water meet technology. Collectively, the subsidiaries are engaged in the energy sector as well as the design, construction and operation of regional water treatment facilities that serve the industrial, energy and government sectors.
Hydration Corporation of PA, LLC ("HCPA") is engaged in the businesses of water exploration, water augmentation, and the treatment of impacted waters. Notably, its intellectual property delivers one of the highest energy yields from a broad range of water-bearing assets, with one of the lowest capital expenditures of any other known water processes. American Energy Solutions, LLC provides treatment technologies that contribute to HCPA's business model of low-cost treatment and distribution. As a provider of design, this subsidiary is capable of repeatable and synergistic services across the value chain. Gilbert Oil & Gas Company is leveraging broad industry valuation experience to source drilling, operating, and partnership opportunities in the upstream oil and gas space. It is positioned to become a strong customer of XFUL's other subsidiaries while providing them with the foundation to attract other customers and enter new markets.

Learn how we can protect you from abusive creditors & debt collectors.
Our firm can fight for your rights and protect you against credit card
debt collectors.
You may have rights to a lawsuit if there are errors on your credit report.
Learn more.
Has Advantage Assets recently contacted you through the mail, telephone,
or perhaps even in person to tell you that you are being sued by them
for an outstanding debt? Have you never even heard of this company before?
To protect yourself from damaging consequences that could cripple your
finances, you should team up with a Philadelphia debt collector defense
attorney from The Law Offices of Michael P. Forbes today.
When someone accrues a debt and does not have the financial means to immediately
pay it off, the original creditor – such as
MasterCard or
Visa – or the original bank – such as
Chase orWells Fargo – generally will not have the interest to pursue it, especially
if it is not a sizeable amount of money. Instead, they will sell the debt
to a collection agency for a fraction of the cost of the total debt. This
collection agency will then go out and try to collect the original full amount.
Advantage Assets is one such company that purcahses outstanding debts on
individual consumer credit accounts for minimal amounts but attempts to
collect in full. Like many other debt purchasers, Advantage Assets has
been known to go for quantity of lawsuits filed, rather than quality.
The end result is that they sometimes pursue debts that have been discharged
by the original bank or creditor. In other situations, they may purchase
inaccurate information, suing you for more than you actually ever owed
to anyone. Even though they should have no right to your money in either
of the aforementioned scenarios, if you do not know your legal rights
and how to challenge their lawsuit, you could end up paying them anyway.
Just like any other lawsuit, a debt collection lawsuit must be based on
actualities, like the debt's actual existence and current validity.
If it is not, the case falls apart and the collection agency's argument
can become defunct. At my debt collector defense law firm in Philadelphia,
we have found that in many debt collection cases such as the ones Advantage
Assets creates, there is no "real world" evidence against
my clients.
In order to be sued for a debt, Advantage Assets must be able to prove:
There have been numerous cases in which a client has indeed gone into debt
with an original creditor but the collection agency – operating
as Advantage Assets may choose to operate – does not have the right
debt amount on file. Despite the debt existing, the lawsuit is invalid
because the sum is inaccurate.
The bottom line is that there
are ways to protect yourself from Advantage Assets and their collections lawsuits,
regardless of what they may have told you. The first step is standing
up for yourself, and the second step is calling
610.991.3321 to reach me, Philadelphia Debt Collector Defense Attorney Michael P. Forbes.
I would be more than happy to tell you about your options – fill

|Representation in hex
Your first task is to implement a circuit that displays the value of a 4-bit number as a hex digit. The hex digit will be displayed on the 7-segment LEDs.
Create a new Quartus project called lab2. As always, the top-level design entity for the project will be a module named top. Remember to download top.qsf into your project directory after you create and close the project, but before you add any files.
After you create and close the project and download top.qsf, download top.v and hexdigit.v into the project directory. Add these files into the Quartus project via Project -> Add/Remove Files in Project... (screenshot). This will bring up the following window. Click the ... button to choose a file, which will bring up the following window. Select each file (top.v and hexdigit.v) and click Add to add it to the project. Alternatively, you can click the Add All button to add all Verilog files in the directory to the project.
After you're done adding files to the project, you should see the following screenshot, and you can click OK. When you return to the main Quartus window, I suggest you click the Files tab of the Project Navigator window (upper left). This will show you all the files in the current project (screenshot), and you can then double-click any of the files to edit it.
Next, complete the Verilog module hexdigit.
hexdigit takes as input a 4-bit number (in)
and produces a 7-bit array of values (out) based on the input value.
The bits of out are meant to
control the segments of a 7-segment LED, as per the following diagram:
For each bit of out, the value 0 causes that segment of the LED to be lit, and the value 1 causes that segment of the LED to be off. This is opposite from the LED_RED devices you used in Lab 1. Complete the code so that the value of out returned by hexdigit generates a human-readable picture of the input value on the 7-segment LED.
Remember that each output value must be defined for each combination of input values (usually by specifying a default value before the if statement). Also remember that multi-bit values are specified with the most-significant bit on the left. E.g., out = 7'b0110000; is shorthand for:
out[6] = 1'b0; out[5] = 1'b1; out[4] = 1'b1; out[3] = 1'b0; out[2] = 1'b0; out[1] = 1'b0; out[0] = 1'b0;
Note the following two lines in top:
hexdigit u1 (SW[3:0], HEX0); hexdigit u2 (SW[7:4], HEX1);
These lines are not executable statements. Rather, they specify that the circuit includes two instances of your hexdigit module (arbitrarily named u1 and u2), with both instances of hexdigit operating continuously and at the same time. Each instance of hexdigit continuously receives as input a set of values from the switches (SW). The output from each instance of hexdigit is continuously fed to one of the 7-segment LEDs (HEX0 or HEX1).
Compile, download, and test your circuit. You should see two of the 7-segment LEDs display a picture corresponding to the values of the switches. If the wrong picture is displayed, fix your code in hexdigit and try again.
Create a new Verilog file called difference.v and add it to your project. difference.v should contain a module difference that computes the absolute value of the difference of two 4-bit input values and produces a 4-bit output. Your code will be similar to the variations you wrote in Lab 1. difference will get its inputs from two input parameters (similar to hexdigit's input parameter) and output its result to a parameter.
Next, you will modify top to compute the difference between SW[7:4] and SW[3:0] (using your difference module) and display this difference onto HEX2.
First, draw a schematic picture of your new top module. Draw wires to show how information flows between the various modules, and label each wire. For example, the inputs to difference should be SW[7:4] and SW[3:0], and the output will be a new variable, which you could call diff.
Next, modify top to implement your new schematic. You will need to include an instance of your difference module; the code provided in top.v shows how to include instances (of hexdigit). You will also need to declare any internal wires (such as diff). Declare these wires in top after the declaration of the top module, e.g.:
wire [3:0] diff;
Before you arrive in lab, you should:
Remember that you can create and edit Verilog files with any text editor, i.e. you need not use Quartus's text editor. If you'd like to use Quartus on your personal PC, you can download it for free from Altera.

NCQA ACO Accreditation helps health care organizations demonstrate their ability to improve quality, reduce costs and coordinate patient care. Built from our successful patient-centered medical home (PCMH) recognition program, NCQA's ACO standards and guidelines incorporate whole-person care coordination throughout the health care system.
Is your organization eligible to apply for NCQA's ACO Accreditation program?
Find out
Automatic Credit Is Available for NCQA-Recognized Patient-Centered Medical Homes: PCMH Recognition automatic credit is awarded to organizations that apply for NCQA ACO Accreditation and have 70 percent or more of their patients attributed to NCQA-Recognized PCMH practices.
Serves both providers and payers: NCQA's ACO Accreditation provides a roadmap for provider organizations to demonstrate their capability to function as ACOs. The program can also be used by public and private payers that seek to distinguish among organizations offering to be accountable providers.
NCQA's ACO Accreditation program aims to align health plan, employer and state and federal purchaser expectations to create leverage for prompting organizations to transform how they provide care. ACO accreditation helps determine if an organization has the infrastructure for accountability.
Offers transparency and drives quality improvement: As a voluntary program, ACO accreditation signals an organization's intent to be transparent about its capabilities and performance. Accredited ACOs will be transparent about performance-based payment arrangements with providers. NCQA requires ACOs to publicly report their performance and to provide performance reports to providers for quality improvement. Not only is transparency important as a concept, it is also the foundation for initiating improvement in the measures.
Transparent: NCQA Accreditation provides independent evaluation of an organization's ability to coordinate care and be accountable for high-quality, efficient, patient-centered care that is expected from ACOs. Learn more about the ACO Program Details.
Flexible: Like many our accreditation and recognition programs, ACO Accreditation is not prescriptive. NCQA ACO Accreditation has different levels that demonstrate varying degrees of readiness to be ACOs.
Respected: NCQA ACO Accreditation was developed by a consensus-driven process that was informed by public comment and pilot testing. The result is a program that meets the needs of patients, consumers, private purchasers and public payers.
Relevant: NCQA Accreditation aligns with many expectations of providers, consumers, and private and public purchasers (e.g., Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services [CMS] programs, including the Medicare Shared Savings Program [MSSP] and [Pioneer]).
Progressive: NCQA revises and updates accreditation standards regularly, reflecting clinical advances, incorporating evolving stakeholder needs and continuously improving program administration for realistic health care solutions.

TGIF!!! This week went by rather fast if you ask me. In the midst of working, I have so much to do this weekend. I'll be working on another over garment with ruffle sleeves as well as 2 other people's projects. Phew!!! But like I've said before, sewing is my therapy :). So I wanted to show how a blazer can kind of vamp up any outfit. Do you think this is true or false? I wore this look to work but I should tell you that the dress code is "business casual". I did get a few joking comments from 2 of my male colleagues about wearing a t-shirt. They joked how I could get away with it simply because I paired a collar shirt underneath it and also because I was a female (they claimed they would never have gotten away with this because they're men). Ha! If you style it the right way and it's not sloppy looking, you can get away with a lot of things :). So what do you think?
Jacket: NY&Co
Button up: H&M
Pant: Sincere Jones
Tee: I forget if it's Walmart or Target but get the look Here
Hope you guys enjoyed the looks!!
As always, your resident sewaholic,

Ok, with one day left in the year, I suppose I should revisit my 2013 Get 'er Done List goals. Here's how we're looking:
NYU SCPS Goals:
COMPLETE - One more class to obtain certificate in Digital Media Marketing
Yup, I checked this one off and got my little certificate. Hoo-rah!
The GGs:
Laura Salverson, The Dark Weaver
YUP - Winifred Bambrick, Continental Revue
YUP - David Walker, The Pillar
YUP - Hugh Garner, Hugh Garner's Best Stories
YUP - Douglas LePan, The Deserter
YUP - Dave Godfrey, The New Ancestors
YUP - Linda Spalding, The Purchase
Yee-ha, I finished off my GG project, reading all but one that I couldn't find anywhere. And of course, the book that won the 2013 award: The Luminaries by Eleanor Catton (which I got for Christmas!)
Baby Goals:
DUNZO - Finish nursery
FINITO - Have this baby
PANIC BE DAMNED! - Don't panic about having this baby
I THINK SO - Figure out how to be a mom
SO FAR, SO GOOD - Figure out how to be a working mom
Misc. Goals
NOPE - Save money
NOSIREE - Figure out how to save money with a baby
So, those last few goals were a little out there. Saving money with a baby! HAHAHA! Babies are expensive. And not getting paid for a chunk of maternity leave is expensive. And daycare is really friggin expensive. So, no, we did not save much money. In fact, our little nest egg took quite a bruising. Dangit.
But that's ok, because I finish off the year with the biggest success of all.
And what next? 2014 goals! They are lofty! Here they are:
1. Get a driver's license. Yes friends, I will be 35 in February and I do not have a driver's license. I've never needed one. I grew up in downtown Toronto with a Metropass and strong walkin' legs. And I now live in NYC with a Metrocard and.. uh... taxi fare.
But the time has come to do what most 16 year-olds can do. Because. But you know what holds me back? FEAR. 16 years olds are stupid and so not scared. I am old and wise and scared, so scared. But I'm going to do it.
|Well, part of this is true. Via crassXstitch on Etsy
2. Learn Photoshop. Yeah, I have it. And sometimes when I have the time to figure it out, I will be able to figure it out to a basic degree. But I'd like to be better. So, yeah, Photoshop.
3. Write more bloggy posts. This year I wrote, I believe, 34 posts. Lame. I'm not going to write every day, but I am going to aim high! 100+ posts in 2014! That's 100+ sweet, sweet nothings!
4. Go a month without sugar. Friends, I am an addict. Sugar. Sugar sugar sugar. This is probably the loftiest goal, but I would like to go a month without sugar. If I can do this, I will treat myself to something really special. Like a DSLR camera.
Happy New Year, friends! I wish you lots and lots of this:
