In recent years, trying to predict the Oscar nominees in the Best Director category has been especially tricky. In the past, you could just translate over your Best Picture nominees, maybe swap one out for a better-known or showier filmmaker, and you were relatively likely to be correct. But ever since the Academy made the switch to having more than five nominees in the top category it's become more unpredictable, especially if you're trying to make your predictions a year in advance.
We've never done a long-range pick of the potential directing nominees before, but rest assured that if we'd done such a thing twelve months ago, we would not have suggested that Michael Haneke would make it in. But having already picked out Best Picture, Actor, Actress and the Supporting categories, we wanted to close out our week of 2014 Oscar long-distance predictions with a challenge, so you'll find our guesses below. You can find out if we're right early in 2014, and in the meantime make your own predictions in the comments section. Our Oscar coverage is going into hibernation for a little while (they might resurface briefly at Cannes, but that'll be it otherwise), but look for it to pick up towards the end of the summer, by which time many of our early questions will have been answered.
Strong Contenders
While adored by geeks and cinephiles, Alfonso Cuaron isn't necessarily a name that rings many bells with the Academy; his last three films were a raucous coming-of-age sex comedy ("Y Tu Mama Tambien"), a "Harry Potter" film, and an apocalyptic sci-fi ("Children Of Men"), none of which is exactly typical Academy material. But the latter made a fair Academy impact despite being undervalued by many, earning three nominations including a screenplay nod shared by Cuaron himself. And if he ever breaks through further, a showy space picture starring Academy darlings Sandra Bullock and George Clooney would seem to be a good bet. If rumors are to be believed, it raises Cuaron's long, impressive takes from "Children Of Men" to a whole new level, with the opening shot said to last as long as twenty minutes, so it'll be a showcase for him as much as for Bullock, and it's the kind of 3D extravaganza that just won Ang Lee the Oscar. Now, the film could end up on a knife-edge; maybe seen by some as too commercial, and by others as too arty. But if Cuaron can get the balance right and the film works, this could well be a good bet.
Having picked up a nomination for his first feature "Capote," Bennett Miller missed out when "Moneyball" was nominated for Best Picture last year. On the one hand, it was a little puzzling (the old complaint of "What, did the film direct itself?"), but on the other hand, Miller has an unfussy, story-first style, so it's understandable why he was excluded, even if the meat-and-veg directorial work was arguably more impressive than some of the others who were nominated last year. We're expecting "Foxcatcher" to be a big player in the awards season, but will Miller be excluded again? Or will voters want to make up for him missing out last time? It's a tough call to make: the film, on the page, looks unlikely to be any more attention-grabbing for its filmmaker than his previous two films. But assuming he does the same impeccable job that he did on "Capote" and "Moneyball," he's always going to be viable, and our gut says that Miller will make the cut this time, although he's probably the shakiest of this Top 5.
Once, when he was the headbutted-by-George-Clooney, shrieking-at-Lily-Tomlin enfant terrible of the indie scene, a nomination for David O. Russell was unthinkable. But the filmmaker has mellowed in recent years, and now has two nominations in three years thanks to "The Fighter" and "Silver Linings Playbook," and was seen by many as a viable winner for the latter, though Ang Lee beat him to the punch. But even before that happened, we thought that Russell might be a great threat in 2014. As we said when discussing the Best Picture possibilities, the Abscam project (which has the almighty cast of Christian Bale, Bradley Cooper, Jeremy Renner, Amy Adams, Jennifer Lawrence and Louis CK) is likely to have all the advantages of Russell's recent work, while also being a period piece, and with arguably more serious subject matter at play. The filmmaker is a perfect match for the script, so unless it's a surprising misfire in execution (or if it slips into 2014, which is possible), we expect him to be among the nominees, and possibly even the front-runner.
Any time that Martin Scorsese has a film out, you know he's going to be a threat in this category; he has seven nominations in total, and while he finally won for "The Departed," he still challenged quite heavily for "Hugo" in 2012, even if he ultimately lost to Michel Hazavanicius. So with a new film in 2013 -- and one that involves examining the root of the global economic crisis in the excesses of a high-living stockbroker -- he's very much in the running, with material that might be his most awards-friendly since "The Aviator." In the last decade, Scorsese has only failed to nab a nomination for "Shutter Island," his most genre-led work in recent memory, so he's a safe bet for a nod. That said, in a tough year which could be seen as something of a changing of the guard, with young bucks like Alfonso Cuaron and Steve McQueen competing, Scorsese can't simply phone the film in.
Like Russell, Payne was once outside of the establishment, with his controversy-baiting debut "Citizen Ruth." But now, the filmmaker has firmly been embraced by the Academy, with six nominations in total including directing nods for his last two pictures, "Sideways" and "The Descendants." His latest, "Nebraska," a father-son tale starring the unlikely combination of Will Forte and Bruce Dern, seems to be a lower-key, more personal kind of picture for the filmmaker, shot on a relatively low budget, and to be released in black and white. But despite the lack of star power, voters clearly adore Payne's sensibilities, and unless the film proves truly surprising, he shouldn't be dismissed in this category. If anything, going black and white is likely to give him more credit. The film might not work, of course, and if some of the showier possibilities below deliver, Payne could well fall out (even a film as fine as "About Schmidt" went mostly unrewarded, bar a nod for Jack Nicholson). But we wouldn't want to bet against him.
Michael M. | March 31, 2013 11:26 PM
Let me make this clear, insofar as the ACADEMY:
Best Actor: Chiwetal Ejiofor - Twelve years a slave (Runner Up: Leonardo Dicaprio)
Best Picture: Untitled ABSCAM Project (Runner up: The Monuments Men, The Wolf of Wall Street).
Best Director: David O. Russell (Runner up: George Clooney, Martin Scorsese).
Personally Ejiofor should win, I mean come on? A gut-wrenching portrayal as the kidnapped Solomon Northup. With that given I think it's almost unavoidable, although DiCaprio could pull off an upset considering he's in Scorsese's highly anticipated project. While BD and BP are up for grabs, I wouldn't be surprised to see Russell winning in both categories. He's a solid director with Weinstein backing him, and has been the academy darling as of late. I could also see George Clooney walking away for his highly touted historical piece "The Monuments Men" as well, although I still presume it may be too early to award him another statuette. With that being said, alas! something in me yells: WILL YOU GIVE IT TO MALICK ALREADY!
Anything else?

Just as a follow up you don't want to hear my rant on Australia ... walked in expecting Lawrence of Arabia. Walked out thinking Donovan's Reef meets the Man from Snowy River while riding past the Rabbit Proof Fence. Never has any director wasted so much talent, epic possibility and cultural clash in unknown history. It should have been great. It is a tribute to the real country and the phenomenal cast clawing its way up through a continuity error laden script that it still manages to be entertaining.
Jamie | March 8, 2013 6:08 PM
I think you can safely remove Baz Luhrman. By this time, the industry must be totally bored with sloppy incompetence not making up for flashes of brilliance.

Scorsese DOES NOT "phone in" his films. Asshole. You're ban from film literature for life just for typing that.
Jack | March 1, 2013 4:09 PM
George Clooney, Steve McQueen, Alonso Cuaron, Bennet Miller, Martin Scorsese
tomincmh | March 1, 2013 3:20 PM
I'm really hoping McQueen can get a nomination His direction in 'Hunger' and 'Shame' were amazing.
Ilona | March 1, 2013 3:06 PM
James Gray deserves a freaking nomination. It will be a shame if the academy ignores him once again.
Jeff | March 1, 2013 1:45 PM
That graph on Llewyn Davis features some of the most bizarre punctuation and sentence structure I've ever seen. This is an actual sentence from above:
"But the question is whether they can manage a directorial nomination, and we're not 100% convinced; of all their earlier films."
BX | March 1, 2013 12:54 PM
This lineup already looks 1000 times better than 2012's nominees.

Lurhmann will make it in. You just wait!

Hi Fresno,
If you are a small business, just starting out, your logo will probably want to show what you do, since a logo is an abbreviation of the words you would use to describe your business, like a shortcut. Once a prospect sees your logo the first time & they understand what you do, what you stand for, etc, the next time they see your logo it's like a trigger to their memory that reminds them of what you are all about.
But a logo is not so important, when compared to the experience they have when first learning about your company. For example, if they learn about your company thru a webpage that has typos or bad looking graphics, photos etc,. they will associate a negative thought about your business. They next time they see your logo, they will be reminded of those negative thoughts. Therefore, it is more important to understand the impression you are trying to create and make sure eveyrthing you do is reinforcing that goal, and not hurting it. Otherwise it doesn't matter how great your logo is, if it only helps reinforce a negative perception. i.e. If you are Target (the store) you have a great logo, the bullseye, (simple, easy to identify, recall, etc.), but due to the recent credit card theft scandal, that logo only helps recall that scandal.
So what business are you in? It appears you might be making websites that fit on mobile phones? What would you want people to think of when they see your logo?
Hi, well the business logo would be for a good friend of mine, she'll be starting a small business in my hometown so she was asking me for some ideas, though I already gave her some but I thought it would still be better to ask other people so she can do it the right way and come up with the best. I agree that logo is like an abbreviation to her business, so i suggested she keep it simple. I get the idea of wht you're saying about the experience when they learn about the company, thank you, it was very well said... she's into bread business, and she'll be using the logo on her social media pages and business cards, her main concern was how can she make her logo different from others with the same type of business. Hope you can share more ideas. Thank you! :)
If she is jsuts tarting out, i don't think the logo is very improtant to her at all, at this early stage. i dobut people will decide to buy bread because she has a great logo. instead, if it is retail, they'll want to buy her bread after hearing from others of how great it is, etc.
what is she planning on doing to get exposure for her business? is she going to have a free taste party, wherer people can sample her bread? make sure she has a contest where she can collect email addresses to use in future advertisements. that is more powerful than worrying about a logo at this point.
and why isn't your friend on this website herself, lol? she should be on here asking for help!
This is a great question.
I agree with the comments above that state that a logo needs to reflect who you are as a business (it needs to line up with your values and mission). I also take into consideration the target audience that you are reaching out to when designing a logo. If your target market is 20 year old, beer drinking guys then having a pink, feminine logo is not going to resonate well with them.
For your friend that is in the bread business - she definitely needs to differentiate herself and her logo can help with that but I doubt a customer will choose her over her competitors strictly because of the logo. With that said, if she wants to stand out from the competition then she needs to create a high quality, custom logo that represents who she (and her business) is while resonating with her target market.
The user above mentioned the experience, which is also very important. Basically, everything needs to line up in order to build trust. You mentioned, your friend is using social media - well, if she comes across as a laid back, care-free person on Facebook but then the customers meet her and she is stiff and aggressive then this sends mixed signals to the customer and as a result, they will not trust the her, the business or the product.
I know this is a little bit of a tangent but it also works with the brand - A business brand is everything from how you treat your customers, your employees, to the design of your business card and of course your logo. Again, all of these need to be in line with one another in order to build trust with your customer base.
Perhaps, this isn't the most concise answer to your question and I would have loved to say that your friend needs to have a clean, flat, vector based logo with a unicorn on it but a logo is so personal that we would need to know more about the business and the owner to develop a high quality logo that fits her brand.
If you ever have any questions about branding or marketing, please don't hesitate to reach out to me.
Best of luck!
Brand identity is a crucial part of your business. Communicating the wrong visual message in your brand puts you at risk of confusing and losing potential clients.
Your business has a personality and vision that deserves to be represented properly. There are endless examples that show how good design looks and works better when it's telling a story, and your logo needs to do a great job of telling that story.
If I were you, I would leave logo design up to a professional- it's not as easy as it looks! If you're looking for a reasonable price, check out mosaicHUB's Marketplace. There's a deal on logo design right now: http://www.mosaichub.com/marketplace/view/design-brand-jumpstart-package

Hey guys,
we are Fabian and Ivan from Hamburg, Germany and try to realize our lifetime dream through Kickstarter (Crowd funding).
In fact we dislike self-promotion in terms of spam but in our current position there is no other possibility and otherwise we can bury our lifetime dream.
Our plan is to found a new fashion brand. Fashion means to us shoes, fragrances for him and her and headphones. Our marketing-concept is based on promotion through celebrities. In the past it was possible to us to get a good connection to popular people. There onto we want to open a store in Los Angeles, Hollywood to emphasize the elegance and exclusivity.
For our big plan we need 3.5Mio € to be competitive on the international market. In this cause we published our intentions on Kickstarter to get our project financed through crowd funding.
It would be awesome if you support us. Every euro brings us further and of course we have little considerations for you helping us.
We got after 12 hours almost 12.000€.
We thank you with all our heart and you can have a look at the following link:
Best regards,
Fabian and Ivan

Hi everyone! I just need some ideas/opinions on things to consider when creating a logo for a business, are there strategies in making one? Thanks!
Hi, yes there is a strategy in making logo. for you to brings something unique to the table and for you to get impression for your business.
I would consider a logo in warm colours, which can be associated with security and home (something we can asocciate bread with). Obviously, not always. If the design of stores, the website and all other advertising materials are prepared in different colours, it should stick to it.
The idea you must consider when it comes to creating your logo, should asnwer the 3 important questions. First, What is the core of your business. Second, how do you want to present your business. Third, would that be enough or should upgrade into a new design as time comes? As business competition evolves, so as your marketing should be in order to keep up and aim to be ahead of the line.
The logo that you'll be needing is something that speaks in behalf of your company. Of course, it will be the face of your company that should be remembered by your clients. It should be something that's unique, presentable and the design should depend on thh type of business or services that you have :) If you need help on logo designing, simply visit http://uniartsdesign.com .. you can also check our portfolio and see how we already helped out many other companies out there. Thanks!
I like the idea of my logo telling people what I do. Maybe it could include your moto as well. Like this
Jerry's Bakery
Smell the Fresh Bread
And bread sticking out at the end (or beginning).
Every part of your business should help you sell more.
I think a major element of any logo has to be the ability to size up or down without losing recognition. With our growing reliance on mobile, that overly complicated logo won't impress potential customers at a smaller size.
---Brian Mell Assistant Marketing Coordinator BannerView.com
A good logo is unique, simple, functional and should convey the message. It should be easy to recognized and should be effective for a long time. And it should be appropriate for its intended purpose. We at Uniarts Design can help you create a logo that will make your business stand out.Visit us at http://uniartsdesign.com.
Hello adi004!
While there's a lot of good advice here, I would like to add that you should consider the style of the logo. It's been mentioned about what impression you want to make with your logo, and the style can address that right away for any potential customers.
If your friend wants an upscale look to their bakery, consider a very simple icon and san-serif font for the logo, limit it to two colors. If they're wanting something more local and friendly, use a font that looks like handwriting and an abstract illustration of bread or a baker's hat. A style that has been recently re-invented in logo design is Retro, it can give a sense of history or hipster-cred, depending on how you go with that.
That being said, the style of a logo will automatically do a lot of work creating an impression for potential customers. If you don't have any designers to work with locally there are options for connecting with professionals online. I could talk about logos all day, but I hope something here was helpful! Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

Making Coupons Work for You
"Money is of no value; it cannot spend itself. All depends on the skill of the spender." – Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)
Today most everyone clips or saves a coupon from time to time. Who can resist? When you know you can save more than the next guy just by having a piece of paper or coupon code, it's a great feeling.
However, the drawback of coupons is that they can become just good intentions and not real savings when you forget them or let them expire. Also, if you have ever cut out the grocery coupons from the Sunday paper, you quickly realize that you wind up with piles of paper that clutter your kitchen desk. Then that pile takes time to manage in order to achieve measurable savings at the grocery store and this is where most people give up.
Did you know that $336 billion in coupons were distributed in 2002 and $3.8 billion were redeemed for a total savings to consumers of $3 billion? This is according to the Promotion Marketing Association's (PMA) Coupon Council. According to the PMA, 79 percent of consumers use coupons. So gone is the image that coupons make you look cheap. Coupons have changed – using coupons is smart and anyone can learn to get in on these savings.
Here are a few things you can do to create a new routine that sets you up for successful savings with coupons:
- Treat coupons like cash. Most everyone has a wallet to organize their cash and credit cards – it would be silly not to return your cash and coins to the same place time and time again. The same is true with coupons.
- Have the right tools for organizing, storing and accessing coupons. Any job is easier when you have the right tool for the job and, let's face it, coupons can be kind of a job. The way you make the job pay off is in the tools.
- Success is in planning. Impulse purchasing whether it is at the grocery store or the mall can kill any attempts to build up savings. When you take time to create, carry out and reap the rewards of a plan, you are more motivated to continue doing it and get better results as time goes by.
- Use online resources to scout out deals before you shop. If you wait to get in the store to look at the deals, you open yourself up to veering off your shopping plan.
- Use online sources to achieve additional coupon savings. Some grocery stores link their shopper card with a paperless coupon system where you select items you might purchase online. Then that information is uploaded to your shopper card and when you purchase these items and your shopper card is swiped, you received additional savings.
- When the price is right, stock up. Many times grocery items go on sale or are buy one get one free, and this is the time to combine your coupon with the store savings for maximum savings. Many times an item can end up being free!
Keeping the household stocked with food and supplies is an ongoing challenge that has to be done. Staying on a budget is a continual process that requires sharp spending skills.

Carolina Beach Publishes Beach Nourishment Schedule Including Memorial Day Weekend
- Details

By WILLARD KILLOUGH III
Managing Editor
CAROLINA BEACH - The Town of Carolina Beach published a schedule last week for the ongoing beach nourishment project. Work will take place from the 600 block to the 300 block of Carolina Beach Avenue North over the busy Memorial Day Weekend.
The notice was published on the Town's website and sent to residents within the project area by Assistant Town Manager Ed Parvin who wrote, "The Town of Carolina Beach federal storm damage reduction project is underway. The project has served the Town well over the last 50 years and continued nourishment will help preserve the community's infrastructure, development, and the economic value of the beach." The notice states, "The project consists of heavy equipment to be used to pump sand on the beach. Based on information provided by the contractor, the project is on schedule for completion by Friday, May 31. The equipment operation generally spans a 2 block area for a period of 1-2 days. Based on anticipated progress by the contractor the following is an estimation of when to expect activity to be occurring on your block." (See graphic for timeline).
The notice states, "Please understand their progress will vary from block to block, and there may be unforeseen delays due to weather and other factors. The shoreline in front of your home will be impacted on the approximate dates below. If you have any questions or concerns please contact Bob Keistler, 910-251-4709 with the Army Corps of Engineers. Thank you for your patience."
Crews with Louisiana based Week's Marine began beach nourishment earlier this month.
A large pipe will run from a pipeline dredge at the Carolina Beach Inlet south to the area of the Carolina Beach Fishing Pier at the end of Carolina Beach Avenue North.
From there the sand will be distributed south along the beachfront via the pipeline to an area near the Carolina Beach Boardwalk in the downtown area.
According to Roberts Keistler, PE, Project Manager for the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers Wilmington District, the initial schedule was for Week's Marine to complete beach nourishment in Kure Beach by March 31st and move to Carolina Beach to complete that project by April 30.
Due to mechanical delays at a neighboring project at Bald Head Island to remove sand from shoals leading into the Wilmington Harbor and place that material on the beach, the Carolina Beach project was been delayed.

I found this article the other day on some site, it came at the right time.... recently my bro, who helped me through all the struggles at home and in my life, passed away. This article somehow got through to me and has changed my perspective on many things, its time to start thinking positive.
I thought i'd post this here...
"Iron and the Soul"
I believe that the definition of definition is reinvention. To not be like you parents. To not be like your friends. To be yourself. Completely.
When I was young I had no sense of myself. All I was, was a product of all the fear and humiliation I suffered. Fear of my parents. The humiliation of teachers calling me "garbage can" and telling me I'd be mowing lawns for a living. And the very real terror of my fellow students. I was threatened and beaten up for the color of my skin and my size. I was skinny and clumsy, and when others would tease me I didn't run home crying, wondering why. I knew all too well. I was there to be antagonized. In sports I was laughed at. A spaz. I was pretty good at boxing but only because the rage that filled my every waking moment made me wild and unpredictable. I fought with some strange fury. The other boys thought I was crazy.
I hated myself all the time. As stupid at it seems now, I wanted to talk like them, dress like them, carry myself with the ease of knowing that I wasn't going to get pounded in the hallway between classes.
Years passed and I learned to keep it all inside. I only talked to a few boys in my grade. Other losers. Some of them are to this day the greatest people I have ever known. Hang out with a guy who has had his head flushed down a toilet a few times, treat him with respect, and you'll find a faithful friend forever. But even with friends, school sucked. Teachers gave me hard time. I didn't think much of them either.
Then came Mr. Pepperman, my adviser. He was a powerfully built Vietnam veteran, and he was scary. No one ever talked out of turn in his class. Once one kid did and Mr. P. lifted him off the ground and pinned him to the blackboard.
Mr. P. could see that I was in bad shape, and one Friday in October he asked me if I had ever worked out with weights. I told him no. He told me that I was going to take some of the money that I had saved and buy a hundred-pound set of weights at Sears. As I left his office, I started to think of things I would say to him on Monday when he asked about the weights that I was not going to buy. Still, it made me feel special. My father never really got that close to caring. On Saturday I bought the weights, but I couldn't even drag them to my mom's car. An attendant laughed at me as he put them on a dolly.
Monday came and I was called into Mr. P.'s office after school. He said that he was going to show me how to work out. He was going to put me on a program and start hitting me in the solar plexus in the hallway when I wasn't looking. When I could take the punch we would know that we were getting somewhere. At no time was I to look at myself in the mirror or tell anyone at school what I was doing.
In the gym he showed me ten basic exercises. I paid more attention than I ever did in any of my classes. I didn't want to blow it. I went home that night and started right in. Weeks passed, and every once in a while Mr. P. would give me a shot and drop me in the hallway, sending my books flying. The other students didn't know what to think. More weeks passed, and I was steadily adding new weights to the bar. I could sense the power inside my body growing. I could feel it.
Right before Christmas break I was walking to class, and from out of nowhere Mr. Pepperman appeared and gave me a shot in the chest. I laughed and kept going. He said I could look at myself now. I got home and ran to the bathroom and pulled off my shirt. I saw a body, not just the shell that housed my stomach and my heart. My biceps bulged. My chest had definition. I felt strong. It was the first time I can remember having a sense of myself. I had done something and no one could ever take it away. You couldn't say **** to me.
It took me years to fully appreciate the value of the lessons I have learned from the Iron. I used to think that it was my adversary, that I was trying to lift that which does not want to be lifted. I was wrong. When the Iron doesn't want to come off the mat, it's the kindest thing it can do for you. If it flew up and went through the ceiling, it wouldn't teach you anything. That's the way the Iron talks to you. It tells you that the material you work with is that which you will come to resemble. That which you work against will always work against you.
It wasn't until my late twenties that I learned that by working out I had given myself a great gift. I learned that nothing good comes without work and a ceratin amount of pain. When I finish a set that leaves me shaking, I know more about myself. When something gets bad, I know it can't be as bad as that workout.
I used to fight the pain, but recently this became clear to me: pain is not my enemy; it is my call to greatness. But when dealing with the Iron, one must be careful to interpret the pain correctly. Most injuries involving the Iron come from ego. I once spent a few weeks lifting weight that my body wasn't ready for and spent a few months not picking up anything heavier than a fork. Try to lift what you're not prepared to and the Iron will teach you a little lesson in restraint and self-control.
I have never met a truly strong person who didn't have self-respect. I think a lot of inwardly and outwardly directed contempt passes itself off as self-respect: the idea of raising yourself by stepping on someone's shoulders instead of doing it yourself. When I see guys working out for cosmetic reasons, I see vanity exposing them in the worst way, as cartoon characters, billboards for imbalance and insecurity. Strength reveals itself through character. It is the difference between bouncers who get off strong-arming people and Mr. Pepperman.
Muscle mass does not always equal strength. Strength is kindness and sensitivity. Strength is understanding that your power is both physical and emotional. That it comes from the body and the mind. And the heart.
Yukio Mishima said that he could not entertain the idea of romance if he was not strong. Romance is such a strong and overwhelming passion, a weakened body cannot sustain it for long. I have some of my most romantic thoughts when I am with the Iron. Once I was in love with a woman. I thought about her the most when the pain from a workout was racing through my body. Everything in me wanted her. So much so that sex was only a fraction of my total desire. It was the single most intense love I have ever felt, but she lived far away and I didn't see her very often. Working out was a healthy way of dealing with the loneliness. To this day, when I work out I usually listen to ballads.
I prefer to work out alone. It enables me to concentrate on the lessons that the Iron has for me. Learning about what you're made of is always time well spent, and I have found no better teacher. The Iron had taught me how to live.
Life is capable of driving you out of your mind. The way it all comes down these days, it's some kind of miracle if you're not insane. People have become separated from their bodies. They are no longer whole. I see them move from their offices to their cars and on to their suburban homes. They stress out constantly, they lose sleep, they eat badly. And they behave badly. Their egos run wild; they become motivated by that which will eventually give them a massive stroke. They need the Iron mind.
Through the years, I have combined meditation, action, and the Iron into a single strength. I believe that when the body is strong, the mind thinks strong thoughts. Time spent away from the Iron makes my mind degenerate. I wallow in a thick depression. My body shuts down my mind. The Iron is the best antidepressant I have ever found. There is no better way to fight weakness than with strength. Once the mind and body have been awakened to their true potential, it's impossible to turn back.
The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you're a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.
Great post, even if it is by Rollins.

"Test all things; hold fast what is good.": 1 Thessalonians 5:21
"I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do--this I keep on doing. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
So I find this law at work: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God's law; but I see another law at work in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within my members. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God--through Jesus Christ our Lord!"

We've talked about what happened to your bro before. Like i said before, if you ever need to talk to someone and just let some feelings off of your chest just email me, firstname.lastname@example.com. Losing someone close is never easy, but it's just like everything else, you have to take it one day at a time. I hope this helps.
May you be in heaven an hour before the devil knows you're dead.
Hey buddy,
I know this post was a long time ago, but i have just come across it now. Im having a rough time at the moment with an ill family member and it was a great piece to read.
Talk needs to develop into changes, it is something i have struggled with for so long, but, and this isn't a resolution, but its a new year, i want to become a strong deep person, i don't want fear any more.
Thank you again
I feel I have benefited from reading this post. Treating Iron as an entity is a fascinating through I'll chew on for the coming weeks in the gym.
Also, I imagined Mr. Pepperman to fit the image of the colonel from Avatar.

At the start of the season, there's no one in baseball I would have traded Matt Kemp for. But now, I would exchange him straight up for Mike Trout, the superb fielder, baserunner and hitter who just turned 21. Not that the Angels are offering.I was curious about at what moment this gigantic shift in the baseball landscape took place. Some would have done it before the season, but I'd have waited until Trout had shown more than the .281 on-base percentage and .390 slugging he displayed in 2011. On the other hand, I'd say definitely by July 22, when Trout reached 300 at-bats in 2012 with a 1.016 OPS, 15 home runs and 31 steals in 34 attempts (climaxed by a 10-game stretch against three potential division champions — the Yankees, Tigers and Rangers — in which he went 19 for 42 with a .511 on-base percentage, .857 slugging, three homers and five steals).Obviously, Trout will have his slumps, and anything can happen to derail a young player's career. But the same is true for Kemp, who is still one of the best around. Even before you get into his current salary, it's hard to argue that Trout isn't the most valuable player in the game. And it happened so fast.

I also have a little problem, see attachment..That's pretty much how some of my photos looked like when trying to import into Aperture/Lightroom 4.
Didn't notice it on the LCD screen and it appeared when I zoomed in to a 100% in Adobe Bridge. After that it also appeared on the thumbnail in Bridge. I'm hoping this is just a PC / software issue and will be resolved with a new Camera Raw update?
Edit: No problems with the rest of the 500 shots I took. My CF card is only 4 GB and pretty old.
No issues with jpegs from the MkIII, and no issues with RAWs from a MkII already on the card.
Guess we await a few fixes, and both LR and Aperture, Bridge to handle MkIII files
Ok! Good to know. I'll shoot RAW + JPEG from now on until the software gets an update.

Many of those indicate that the exceptions being caught are bugs if
they occur, but won't be bugs if/when some other code is written. I

Web Applications
A web application is an application that is accessed by users over a network such as the Internet or an intranet. Web applications commonly use a combination of server-side script (ASP, PHP, etc) and client-side script (HTML, JavaScript, etc.) to develop the application. The application can be as simple as a message board or a guest sign-in book on a website, or as complex as a word processor or a spreadsheet.

- It uses HTML, CSS, JavaScript and server scripting for building web pages.
- PHP is a general-purpose server-side scripting language originally designed for Web development to produce dynamic Web pages.
- PHP can be deployed on most Web servers and also as a standalone shell on almost every operating system and platform free of charge.
- PHP is a language for creating interactive web sites and is used on over 3.3 million web sites around the world.
We incorporate features on the websites to facilitate buying and selling products over electronic systems. E-commerce includes technologies like:

The Boy Scouts of America are saying thank you to the veterans in their own way today by holding a troops serving troops breakfast event.
Troop 1 set up a breakfast at the Holy Spirit Catholic Church, just blocks away from Malmstrom, to honor both active and retired members of the community with a free pancake breakfast. The local Boy Scout Troop say they found the experience very rewarding to give back to people who have given so much.
"Today we're serving breakfast to veterans and it's important because of they gave to our country and now we're giving back to them, Veterans Day is a great holiday to support our troops and thank a veteran." says Senior Patrol Leader, Anthony Formica.
Boy Scout Troop 1 continues to serve the community with a coat drive where they have collected over 500 coats to be given to families in need in the Great Falls community. All the money that the boys collect through donations today will go back to the church to help fund several ministry programs.

The National Water Initiative (NWI) is Australia's enduring blueprint for water reform. Through this initiative, governments across Australia have agreed on actions to achieve a more cohesive national approach to the way Australia manages, measures, plans for, prices, and trades water.
The National Water Initiative identified the need for a consistent and standardised approach to water resource accounting, resulting in a decision to treat water accounting as a discipline comparable to that of financial accounting.
The Australian Water Accounting Standard 1 was developed by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology to define the structure for preparing and presenting a General Purpose Water Accounting Report. The standard is also accompanied by a series of model reports that illustrate how the standard would be applied to various hypothetical water reporting scenarios. The document can be downloaded from the Bureau of Meteorology website.
General Purpose Water Accounting Reports for all Murray-Darling Basin regulated river catchments are listed below as they are produced:

Using Forcible Entry to Begin Fireground Operations
Two key items to consider for entry points at structure fires in the event of a catastrophic failure of the structure: how will the company make their way out? How does the rapid intervention crew enter to facilitate rescue of the company?
There are several significant tasks that must be done within the first few minutes after the fire department arrives on the scene of a working structure fire. One of these tasks includes forcible entry; gaining access for crews to perform rescue and suppression is a high priority on the fireground. Truck companies are usually assigned this task, but the first-due engine company may find themselves making access for their initial push into the structure. There are a few considerations to make before the attack commences, to ensure the operation is rapid and efficient.
Pre-plan For Entry
Knowing the best way into the structure begins with the department pre-plan. Gathering as much information about the structure, prior to the fire, arms the incident commander with plenty of ammunition to formulate an attack. Getting into the building starts the attack.The easiest way into the building is to be invited, so to speak.
Many departments participate in the entry lock key program, commonly referred to by the trade name "Knox Box" system (see Photo 1). Having access into the building utilizing this system gets personnel and resources into the building quicker, reduces damage to the structure, and provides for a rapid suppression operation. It also adds an additional level of security, as some types allow the box to be wired into the master alarm system and notifies the police department when the box is unlocked.
If forcing entry is still necessary, consider the easiest way into the building; the easiest way may not be the most obvious way. Be sure that 360-degree pre-plan includes the point of attack, which should be the fastest, most efficient way in.
Upon Arrival
At the incident, gathering information regarding forcible entry can be broken down into five parts:
What is the occupancy? – What is the main use for the building? Does the operation of the building require significant security systems in place? Post offices, banks and medical facilities may all have areas that are fortified, requiring a more aggressive approach to gain entry.
Even residential structures may pose significant entry issues. Take for example a multiple dwelling such as an apartment complex, a hotel or even a multiple-family residential structure. The forcible entry team will have to gain entry into each exposed area, and depending on the respective occupant's position on personal security, the crew may come across many different styles of locks in an entry door (see Photo 2).
In the case of hotels, many chains are changing over to electro-magnetic locks that are activated with a card-swipe system. These doors require a considerable amount of force, usually at more than one location on the jamb. It is much simpler for the staff to program a master swipe card for the fire department and have it accessible in an area for the company to use during an alarm. Additionally, in some cases, many of these occupancies fail-safe to the unlocked position in the event of a fire; check with these occupancies in your area to see how they react during an alarm.
Door Construction – What is the door and the jamb area made of? It is important to recognize what part of the assembly will fail during entry. Residential doors are usually wooden core doors, mounted in wood frames. In this event, the door or the frame will compromise. When gaining entry into a commercial occupancy, crews may encounter metal doors assembled in masonry walls and metal jambs. These assemblies will require a more laborious effort to gain entry. This author has even faced wooden entry doors within metal buildings. It is critical to identify the weak point of the assembly to direct the force towards (see Photo 3).
Additionally, how many doors are located at the point of entry? The entry team may come across a second door (such as in a foyer in an occupancy) that will be as significantly fortified as the first door encountered. Will this additional door cause enough of a delay that the suppression operation suffers? If so, think about finding an alternate means of entry (see Photo 4).

Off-Campus Dining:
There are lots of great places within walking distance to campus, although they are all downtown so it's not ideal to go when its dark out
Greek Life:
I'm not a part of greek life, but my room and hall-mates are. It's difficult not to create a stereotype for unc's greek students when it seems like all of them are white, heterosexual, come from families that have more money than they can spend, etc.
Health & Safety:
Because the campus is downtown, and the city has a relatively high amount of homeless people, sometimes walking at night doesn't feel too safe
Campus Housing:
I live in Granville Towers, so its much closer to campus than the "on campus" (entirely through the university) to classes.
There is usually at least one large party every weekend, but its not so bad that there are always intoxicated students walking around.
I haven't had an internship yet, but the University Career Services on campus seems very helpful for matching students up with internships and jobs.
I am the Biomedical Engineering department, which didn't require a separate admission.
It's improving, but still has a long way to go
Guys & Girls:
Very preppy and very religious
Beautiful campus, but old buildings and need update
Need an interview process. Very selective.
Campus Housing:
Too cramped and too loud
Best basketball team in the world
Campus Dining:
Short hours, lots of fast food
Off-Campus Housing:
Horrible, cheap, loud apartments- disgusting
Overall Experience:
Experienced professors and informative classes
Overall Experience:
Top 3 in the country for nursing
Off-Campus Dining:
Lots of variety and vegetarian options
Local Atmosphere:
Part of the reason why I chose UNC!
Campus Strictness:
Strict when necessary and it keeps us safe
Off-Campus Housing:
I have experienced through others, and it is fantastic
Greek Life:
It is fine, not for everyone
Health & Safety:
I feel safe, but things can still happen.
Overall Experience:
I have not experienced this yet
Overall Experience:
I know the opportunities that I have been given, and you can't beat it.

Starting NOW, I'll be featuring a different Fashion Blogger over 30 every Monday. Our first featured blogger is Marie Denee, The Curvy Fashionista and owner of Marie Denee LLC. Marie has accomplished so much in her niche, I hope you'll find her as inspiring as I do. She's also the author of an ebook coming next month!
Tell us a little about your blog?
I started the Curvy Fashionista in December of 2008. I really wanted my blog to be a resource and outlet for all the fashion I found that was available for the plus size woman who loves fashion. Since then, it has evolved into a lifestyle, featuring shoes, beauty, and accessories! I aim to edify and leave my reader learning a new place or designer who caters to her. In addition, it has also evolved to be a voice for the plus size woman, allowing her to be Curvy.Confident.and CHIC!
What are some things you've learned in your 30's that you apply to blogging?
I have learned to accept myself as I am. It is okay if I do not fit into a mold, outfit blogging, activism, just to be comfortable where I am and with who I am. I am constantly learning and I have come to appreciate even more the relationships and friendships that I have gained over my time blogging.
In your opinion, how are bloggers over 30 different than bloggers in their teens/twenties? What value do we add?
I think each blogger is different and has a unique perspective to add and share. My perspective on fashion may be a bit more lifestyle focused, at times it can be a bit reserved, but my voice is my voice. I think as we age, we become more confident in our voice and understand the game in its entirety… as with wine, life and blogging in my case has gotten better for me! LOL
Do you think it's harder to be a fashion blogger over 30?
I dont think so…. or at least not yet. I find my readership skews more in the 25-45 area, so they relate to me and I to them… I am not sure yet!I think age may be an obstacle but not a defining obstacle
What do you hope to get out of your participation in the Fashion Bloggers over 30 community?
I really love hearing and reading about the journey and experiences other people have and I love to learn. Networking, support, and knowledge!
Thanks for participating Marie! If you're interested in being a Featured Blogger, please fill out the questionnaire.

(WMC-TV) – A new company is bringing hundreds of jobs to Olive Branch.
An undeveloped lot will eventually become home to the new Helen of Troy warehouse. It is expected to bring about 300 jobs to the city.
Olive Branch Mayor Sam Rikard says it is something that has been in the works for at least six months.
The New Helen of Troy warehouse will be one of the first things people see coming to Olive Branch from the east.
DeSoto County is looking to finalize incentives to bring the company's second warehouse to the county.
Mayor Rikard says the undeveloped land currently brings in about 14,000 to the city, but the warehouse will bring in much more.
"Even with the tax incentives that we're offering, they're going to be paying the city of Olive Branch about a $120,000 a year," said Mayor Rikard.
On top of the additional revenue for the city and county, even more tax money will flow into the school systems in DeSoto County.
The consumer product manufacturer is expected to close one of its current facilities in Memphis in wake of the move to DeSoto County.
"I understand that ultimately the Memphis location will close and you would expect those employees to transfer, I'm told we'll have up to 400 employees," explained Rikard.
The warehouse is expected to open at some point in 2014.

|Ground Beef
|Lunch Dinner
|Main Dish
|Cook Method
|Saut�ing; Baking
|High Protein
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup whole-wheat pastry flour
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
5 tablespoons canola oil
1/3 cup ice water
1 large egg yolk
8 ounces 93%-lean ground beef
1 bunch scallions, minced
1 teaspoon Scotch bonnet chile pepper, minced, or to taste
1/4 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup water
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon salt
To make the crust, add all-purpose and whole-wheat flour, 1 teaspoon tumeric, 3/4 teaspoon of salt, and baking powder to a large bowl and mix well. Slice the butter into small pieces (approximately 1 cubic centimeter). Using your hands, mix the butter with the dry ingredients, until the butter has become smaller but still visible. Pour in the canola oil, stirring with a fork to mix. In a small bowl, whisk the water and egg yolk. Pour the diluted egg mixture into the flour, stirring until combined. While still in the bowl, knead the dough until it begins to form a ball. Remove the dough from the bowl, and wrap in plastic. Place the dough in the refrigerator, and chill for approximately 1 hour.
To make the filling, heat a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, scallions,and chile pepper. While cooking, stir the mixture with a wooden spoon to break up the beef. Continue stirring for 4-6 minutes or until the beef is completely cooked. Add the bread crumbs, water, thyme, and the remaining salt and tumeric, stirring to mix well. Allow the meat filling to cool.
Preheat the oven to 400�F.
Divide the cooled dough into 6 equally sized portions. Dust the surface of the counter with flour, then press each portion of dough with a rolling pin until it becomes a 6-inch circle, approximately 3/8-inch thick. If the circle is uneven or unsymmetrical, place a bowl over the dough, and trim along the edges using a knife. Place about 1/4 cup of filling on one side of the dough, taking care to leave a 1/4-inch border without filling. Fold the dough over the filling and press the edges together with your fingers to seal. Repeat this procedure with all of the dough and filling. Place the patties onto a baking sheet, and put the baking sheet into the oven. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the patties become golden brown. Serve immediately.

The cabin upgrade was to an inside cabin immediately below the the Conservatory Restaurant and we had to suffer chair scraping, trolleys, banging and crashing above our heads from 6am until after midnight every day.
The Conservatory Restaurant was like a bunfight in a wind tunnel - never a pleasant place to be.There was really not enough seating for the number of passengers.
Norovirus was widespread on the ship throughout the cruise and we both came home infected despite the constant wiping and spraying.
The cruise itinerary had two stops in Sicily - Palmero and Catania - both these cities were rather similar, sad places that had seen better days.
Everthing else regarding this cruise was good - the usual mix of places, people, food and entertainment. The staff made a wonderful effort in difficult circumstances (all food and drink had to be served to you and even the library books were locked away) BUT I would not choose this ship again

Pujols hit .345 (40-for-116) for the month with 10 homers, 26 RBIs, 25 runs and 12 doubles. He posted a .394 on-base percentage and .707 slugging percentage. For the season, he leads the Majors with a .364 average and .701 slugging percentage.
"I don't think about it at all," Pujols said of contending for the batting title. "You talk to me in September, if I'm hitting .390 then I'll tell you I'm real happy. But right now I just want to go out there and do what I have to do to get my team to win."
He adjusted well to a strained elbow ligament, splitting time between left field and first base, and never let the injury slow his offensive production. Pujols tallied 12 multi-hit games for the month, and from May 19-22 he homered in four consecutive games. He is the only player in Major League history to start his career with two seasons hitting .300 with 30 homers and 100 RBIs.
Pujols stands out for his consistency. He didn't go hitless in consecutive games for the entire month, and has gone hitless in back-to-back starts just once all year.
"Not many guys," said manager Tony La Russa recently, "stay hot for six months -- like Albert."
It's been a season full of honors for St. Louis. Pujols was named Pepsi Player of the Week for the week spanning the end of April and beginning of May, and Matt Morris also took home player of the week honors once this season.
Pujols has been one of few offensive constants for a Cardinals team struck repeatedly by injuries. Jim Edmonds, Tino Martinez and Mike Matheny slumped for much of May. Eli Marrero and Fernando Vina are on the disabled list with serious injuries.

- Studio: Rogue Pictures
- Release Date: Nov 10, 2006
- Starring: Sam Shepard, Sarah Michelle Gellar
- Summary: Sarah Michelle Gellar stars as Joanna Mills, a tough young Midwesterner determined to learn the truth behind the increasingly terrifying supernatural visions that have been haunting her. (Rogue Pictures)
- Director: Asif Kapadia
- Genre(s): Drama, Mystery, Thriller, Horror
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 1 out of 16
Mixed: 9 out of 16
Negative: 6 out of 16
It's more haunting than it has any right to be, thanks to its love of long, lonesome highways and the way the violence of the past bleeds into the present.
London-born director Asif Kapadia's second feature, following 2001's critically acclaimed "The Warrior," is a slow, low-key supernatural thriller whose story is too slender to justify its feature-length running time.
Mellow -- nay, snoozy -- atmospherics trump actual scares, and it makes almost zero sense.
Since Adam Sussman's script is as lazy as Asif Kapadia's direction is disjointed, nothing ever makes sense, even after the anticlimatic explanation is revealed.
Sarah Michelle Gellar is not faring well as a horror-movie scream queen. Gone are the attitude, wit and verve she used to routinely display in the title role of TV's "Buffy the Vampire Slayer."
At the heart of The Return is a murder that even the most bumbling homicide investigator could have solved in about 12 seconds.
Score distribution:
Positive: 7 out of 10
Mixed: 1 out of 10
Negative: 2 out of 10
