Evolución de las condiciones socioeconómicas de los hogares en el programa Oportunidades
AbstractThis paper presents empirical evidence that allows us to understand how does the welfare level of beneficiary households of the conditional cash transfer program Oportunidades evolve, both in the short and in the medium term. Understanding this evolution is relevant in order to design efficient exit mechanisms for this type of programs—something that concerns at least 27 conditional cash transfer programs worldwide. Using administrative data of the universe of beneficiary households, we study changes in welfare levels of rural and urban households in the short and medium term. Furthermore, recognizing that the evolution of each household's welfare level might be heterogeneous, we analyze the paths different types of households have followed over time. Our results confirm the existence of heterogeneity in the evolution of welfare levels among households. The data shows that poorer households have achieved greater improvements in their welfare level than (relatively) better off households.

In the entire history of feature film adaptations of literary works, none have been so dismissive of their sources as World War Z. Bar the title and the genre, Marc Forster's film shares precious little in common with Max Brook's 2006 novel, an outcome even more curious following a hard fought rights battle, which cost Brad Pitt's production company Plan B Entertainment a cool $1 million.
While fans of the book might be slightly bemused, if not a little disappointed by the supposed adaptation, film fans will likely be less critical. As it turns out, World War Z proves to be one of the most entertaining and suspenseful films of the blockbuster season. Perfect it is most certainly not, but for a film borne out of significant behind the scenes turmoil, it ends up overwhelmingly more impressive than anyone could rightly expect.
Whilst stuck in traffic gridlock on a Philadelphia street, Gerry Lane (Brad Pitt), a retired UN investigator and his family become embroiled in a deadly virus outbreak which spreads with terrifyingly rapid speed, causing the infected to become rage-fuelled zombies, intent on just one motive; infecting the uninfected. Following a suspenseful escape sequence that leaves a trail of devastation in its wake, the family are choppered out to the security of a vessel on the Hudson River, which has become a make shift command bunker by Lane's contact UN Deputy Secretary-General Thierry (Fana Mokoena).
Tasked with attending to the remaining survivors, Lane is coaxed into leading a team of Navy Seals to track down the virus's origin, which takes him to South Korea and then Israel, where the mission takes a turn for the worst, which leaves him with little assistance in fighting a battle which may have already become lost.
Much has been written about World War Z's troubled production and not insignificant budget blowouts, precipitated by a post-production rewrite which saw the entire final third act jettisoned. For those in the know, it's easy to pin point the moment the film charts its new course (hint: everything after Israel), but this has seemingly had little adverse effect on the final cut. While the original ending, with Pitt cutting a swathe through forward barreling zombies in Russia, to rescue his family would have been far bleaker (and I'd suggest less box-office friendly), the replacement works well and certainly escalates the suspense stakes, by going in the opposite direction than where viewers would expect.
For a genre that normally confines its storytelling to reign in limited budgets, World War Z is arguably the first time a zombie feature has attempted such epic scope and the results are impressive. Like Contagion (just with more action), the threat of an adversary that can't be stopped, steeped in the realm of scientific possibility is an imposing threat indeed. Whilst the special effects are, at times, a little unimpressive and the inclusion of charmless and ragged Brad Pitt as the hero is questionable, as a package, World War Z is highly entertaining, frequently of the edge-of-the-seat variety.

KA: Well Doley, this week it has just been about one thing in sport, inter-league.
After a long build up, it is finally here.
The teams have been announced and the captains have been named.
Now we just have to wait and watch it all unfold.
Can Bendigo do it? Can it win against Gippsland on Saturday afternoon?
ND: Home-ground advantage is a huge plus for Bendigo.
The line-ups have changed dramatically since their last battle, but Bendigo did beat Gippsland when they last met on the QEO.
Like the look of the BFL's onball division led by in-form ruckmen Tim Martin and Tom Waters, and an attack boasting Stephen Milne and Mitch Dole.
Conditions may be greasy which could curb Gippsland's marking power to some extent.
KA: The BFL team does look like a good one and hopefully the team can gel together.
I am sure Bendigo won't have it all their own way, Gippsland will look to put in a good fight.
But like our Blue Heelers loving Westy said in his mini-column on Thursday, it is all about taking your opportunities.
If Bendigo doesn't take its chances then they will continue to slide down the AFL Victoria Country rankings ladder.
ND: The only time Westy has liked blue is watching Blue Heelers.
Although it's fiction, Westy shed a tear when the final episode was run.
Time to get serious again, Magpie.
No matter what level of footy, it's all about captitalising near goal, efficiency when in possession, and pressure when the opposition has the ball.
Game plans are more sophisticated now Magpie, but keep it simple worked for the likes of teams coached by Tom Hafey, Allan Jeans and Collingwood legend Jock McHale.
KA: Keeping it simple is definitely the key.
But I am not sure if Richmond forward Jack Riewoldt keeps things simple.
He put his foot in his mouth again and Damian Hardwick isn't too happy.
I feel sorry for Jack, he is one of only a rare few who speaks candidly and honestly about the game.
There should be more players like Jack in the AFL.
ND: Already enough heat on Richmond and Jack has added fuel to the fire.
Can completely understand coach Hardwick's frustration, but also agree with you about players not always giving the cliched answer.
Pockets would be full for a dollar everytime I have heard a player say 'yeah, no' or 'at the end of the day'.
KA: One week at a time gets thrown around a bit, too.
I understand teams want to keep things close to their chest and in-house but fans want more from players.
They want to know more about their favourite players and want to know more about what's happening at their club.
Times are a changing Doley.
ND: Too right, and not always for the better.
Heat's on your Magpies, too, when they tackle West Coast at the 'G'.
I'm expecting Travis Cloke, who you have hailed a superstar, to finally strike form in a Pies win.

So I've been playing a lot of TT recently and I realized that many people do not understand that TT and SR play completely differently. You build different, have different priorities (for the most part) and generally requires a different mindset to play.
Seeing as how there is such a misunderstanding of the map I am calling on you, Phreak, to create a TT Map Spotlight. Showcasing things like ward and jungle control, the importance of buffs, the variation in item builds etc etc. (all important to SR but in a different way)
I can bet good money that this would instantly increase TT popularity and help improve player skill if a larger majority of users started playing the map.
A poll is included for community opinion. Hell maybe when Magma Chamber comes out we can get a spotlight for that too!
TL;DR - Phreak make a Map Spotlight for TT, emphasizing differences between the two current maps
I think the past noxus vs ionia match was just a SR spotlight, so maybe they'll have a TT spotlight for the next rematch, lol.
That was an ELO Hell spotlight. That's what that was.

3v3 is really fun actually, but I only like to 3v3 with a 3 person pre-made. It feels like the quality of players in 3v3 is lower than in 5v5.
I played quite a bit of 3v3 and actually got rather good at it (was almost in the top 100) From what I can see people have very little idea how TT plays. People will try to go to "lane" won't fight over red buff level one. They keep the very static mindset that the first 10-15 minutes of SR has. This will get you crushed in TT.
Junior Member
main problem with TT is that there are a few chars that are just broken on that map. Mainly Mundo and Mordekaiser.
Be Calm Carry On
Twisted Treeline needs more love in general. My queue times suggest there just aren't that many players out there.
I think the -10% IP is a major detterrant from TT as well.... In general, you usually get around 80 for a SR game, -10% of that is just a bummer..... But still a fun map!

Yes, it's cold, but it's also winter. And while temperatures may be dipping into the single-digits over the next few days, is it going to be that bad?
Not really.
Although we're in a string of colder-than-normal days, we've also had a good run of warmer-than-normal days so far this winter. In fact, if you average it out, this is shaping up to be a pretty normal winter temperature-wise.
Before you run to the supermarket for eggs and milk, consider this. In 1994, 20 years ago this month, we had a string of cold days. No, it wasn't single digits, or in the teens, nor did the wind chill make it 'feel' like zero.
It was a string of days when temperatures dipped as low as -22 degrees. Yep, negative, as in below zero, as in really, really cold.
Compared to that, the low tonight (3 degrees), is practically balmy (also not a single-day record). Nor will Tuesday night's 5 degree mark be anything to, well, mark for posterity.
So if you're wondering how to survive the 'polar vortex,' do what the rest of us do when it's cold – grab a blanket, throw a pot of tea or cocoa on the stove and huddle up with the kids.
All-time coldest temperatures ever recorded in the Harrisburg area, (for any day at the Harrisburg International Airport):
- -22, January 21, 1994
- -16, January 20, 1994
- -14, January 14, 1912
- -14, January 19, 1994
- -13, February 10, 1899


text: On a personal note, I have been rather busy in the last few months as I was finishing two bachelor thesis', started working full-time as an intern and finally I have been kept pretty busy by my social life. As a repercussion from all the things that have overwhelmed, I wasn't able to attend to my personal website. While I tried to stay active via twitter, it has been quite an adventure over the first four months of the year. Now, while I still need to prepare for the final exam, it does give me enough time to finally start writing once again. So, with a new year, a new beginning I thought it was about time for a little change. While my original blog is still available under the original site, I found myself rebranding with a new website.

It was WONDERFUL. Great food, great music and dancing. Very intimate setting. I had a table very close to the guitarists and dancer. Their seasonal sangria was very good - grapefruit, blood orange and other fruits. I had the cream of corn soup, the Puerto Rican salmon and the salad and flan. Definitely a good time.

Hunger PainsIt begins with a bang.I forget to eat for a few months andI drown in cheap ideas with pretty names,the ones they fill books and barren wristsand stormy heads with, and soon,moonlight shines from insidemy ribs and I am a lighthouse.Thank you for the things you gave me,intrinsically, a knowledge ofhow to properly wearmyself. Thank youfor not fixing me.I used to write about the colorof your voice, always blue-- the skybefore I fell asleep and the morningdragging me back; I wonderthat you could've loved me betterif you explained who theSomething was that shared your bedat night, or why insincere wordswere your favorite.My poems still cling to my skineven when I sleep. even whenI wake, an anchor. even whenI boil myself alive and unfoldlike a pallid lily inside yourheavy hands;and after enough time,I forget to say goodbye.Today,I pick the scabs on my hips,kiss the sorry out of your smile,and breathe like this airisn't already a million years old.

12 Celebrity Couples & Their Love Equation
By TNN | posted Mar 15th 2012 at 12:22PM
Gauri & Shah Rukh Khan
Gauri and Shah Rukh have a five-year age gap, but a Bollywood-level courtship that spanned seven years and two cities. They've past the seven-year and 15-year itch, having already been married for 20 years; and both were in their 20s when they tied the knot. His fame far exceeds hers; when she grabs headlines, it is mostly as his consort. Plus Gauri has no provocative pictures online. All things are in balance, not allowing for the proximity of seductive co-stars.

"Fascinating... Valuable insight into an institution that has recently been transformed yet again."--The Boston Globe
"Very amusing...[A] passionate intellectual manifesto."-- Library Journal
"Squire archly reconsiders the disobedient Biblical helpmeet Eve ('Shouldn't the buck stop with the senior officer, not the assistant?'), as well as witches, bitches, nymphomaniacs, concubines, clerics, cuckolds, and others … Take this potent, hugely entertaining book to bed."—O Magazine
"Lively and a pleasure to read"—Kirkus Reviews
"In breezy, irreverent prose, Squire catalogues the history and religious significance of the institution of marriage ....as if gossiping with a girlfriend...."—Publishers Weekly
"A sardonic and delightful romp through the history of conjugality, from day zero on. An illuminating book for those who want to know their history, rather than just repeat it: anyone in a marriage or just contemplating the possibility will want to take notes. Also perfect for couples therapists' waiting rooms, throwing at your spouse, and Valentine's Day."—Laura Kipnis
"Written with an incisive wit and an unshowy audaciousness, I Don't is an absolutely compelling read—a must for anyone, man or woman, who has wondered about the war between the sexes and the truce that is marriage. Steeped as her book is in historical detail, Susan Squire proves herself to be that rare breed: a scholar with a light touch, writing with a deftness and fluency that lifts her comprehensive knowledge and closely informed readings to the level of literature. This is a book that informs while it entertains the reader—a truly original take on its subject."—Daphne Merkin, author of Enchantment and Dreaming of Hitler
The author seemed very ultra feminist man hating in some of her side rants.
It's a fantastic gift for all your single friends, or an anniversary gift for those who've already taken the plunge.
Squire takes the reader on an historic tour of the one of civilization's most confounding institutions - marriage.
Well written, and interesting subject matter. The headline and tagline sold the book, but there is no editorial or discussion for or against marriage, really. Read morePublished 10 months ago by Bettergears

This book was long, drawn out and really boring. I would not recomend this book unless you are reading to bring on a nap.Published 20 months ago by Kristen Williams

Publication: The Day
Waterford � Entering the season, Waterford High School had a clear destination in mind.
Palmer Field, site of the Class L state championship baseball game.
Today, the second-seeded Lancers make the trip to Middletown to play No. 4 New Canaan at noon for the state championship.
"Before the season, we talked about how we want to get here," said senior Kyle Willoughby, referring to Palmer Field. "We wrote on the board in our locker room, 'Road to Palmer.'
"That's how focused we've been."
The rainy weather may delay their title quest. A decision will be made this morning on the game status. A potential makeup date is Sunday at 12:30 p.m.
Coach Art Peluso would rather not wait another day to play.
"These guys were ready to play on Wednesday," Peluso said during indoor practice Friday afternoon. "We've been on a pretty good roll and we've got to keep that good feeling going."
Waterford (23-4) has relied on sound fundamental baseball and quality pitching during its tournament run, allowing only three runs in four wins and posting two shutouts.
Senior ace Jordan Hamler, who's already won two tournament games, will start today. Sophomore Justin Pandolfe emerged as a major factor late in the regular season and blanked No. 11 Notre Dame of West Haven, 2-0, in Tuesday's semifinal.
"Usually when you go for a state championship you get a shot in the arm late in the season that gets you to the point where we're at now," Peluso said. "Our shot in the arm was Justin Pandolfe."
Waterford can draw from numerous sources of motivation today.
The Lancers are attempting to win the program's 10th state championship, including the first since 2005. They're also shooting for their first Class L title in 32 years (The last five titles came in Class M).
Peluso also pointed out to his team that Waterford is one of the smallest schools in Class L. Waterford has 474 boys in its upper three classes and New Canaan has 635. The Rams are seeking their first state title, losing to Fitch, 6-4, last year.
The Lancers have embraced the underdog label.
"I feel like we go into every game in the Class L tournament as the underdog even though we're the two seed," Willoughby said.
They're also out to prove that they're better than some people projected.
"It means a lot to us," junior Seth Hoagland said. "In the beginning of the year, everyone was saying that we were going to have a down year. We really took that to heart and we've been playing our hardest."
Peluso has had high expectations all season and the Lancers have responded. He raved about their work ethic and consistent effort.
He used an example from Thursday's workout.
During a bunt drill, a pitcher failed to cover third base, but the left fielder hustled in to take the bag.
"They've played harder than anybody that we've played against all year," Peluso said. "And that gets us calls because we don't take plays off.
"... They've done it the right way all year. We're going to go there Saturday and we're going to play as hard as we possibly can and try to make all the plays.
"If it goes our way, that's great. If it doesn't, they have nothing to put their heads down about because they have played hard every single game."

Big Blue by Melancholyman on 03/15/2013. Trim: 2013 Jaguar XJ AWD, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: With one single exception, noted below, there is nothing I want or need that this car does not have. Luxuriously comfortable with excellent handling, more than adequate power (bought the AWD supercharged V-6). Shopped Mercedes-Benz and Lexus before buying the XJ. Leaves both well behind.
Cons: Driver's seat doesn't move back when engine turned off to facilitate exit from car. Significant omission on Jaguar's part. Even my 2010 Lincoln MKS had that feature.
Overall review: Have had the car only a little more than a month. A pure delight thus far. We'll see how it holds up over time.
Review ID: #570883 Is this review offensive?
Best car I've ever owned... ( and yes I've owned 4 MB and 2 Lexus) by An MSN Autos Consumer on 06/16/2013. Trim: 2013 Jaguar XJL Supercharged, Owned 1 year.
Pros: I've owned 4 MB. Two S-Classes, an SL and my wife now drives a 2010 E350. I love this Jaugar. Best car I've ever owned thus far. When I read articles by the automotive press about how the touchscreen is slow to respond, I laugh. There is a factory default setting that allows added "bling" ( animation) when you touch the screen. It simply creates a "sparkle" type effect when you touch the screen. This default can be turned off in settings and the touchscreen works just fine. I have the 2012 XJL Supercharged and I love it! All the toys including illumnated door/trunk sills and heated windshield! My MB's I've had too many issues to list here!
Cons: If trying to dial a number while backing up, the park assist engages and the phone will disconnect the call and not dial. Safety feature I guess since there are some people who can't walk and chew gum at the same time. Its a little annoying though.. :) I also wish the trunk were just a little bigger. Th wheel wells intrude into the trunk and take up a little room. Nit pick stuff. Other than that this car rocks! I Get more stares in this machine than anything else I've ever owned. I even got stares from Bentley and Aston owners, who would speed up just to see what the heck it was that I was driving..lol
Overall review: To the press. I mentioned above how to disable the touch screen animations in the settings. I've also heard a few reviewers complain that the park assist screen stays on after you go from reverse to drive. The park assist automatically terminates once you reach 10 mph, but if it's a real hassle to you, above the drivers seat there is a buttong with the letter "P" that lights up when park assist is on. If you push that button, park assist will disengage and the touchscreen will return to normal. I've also heard some writers complain "Why should I have to use the touchscreen to heat or cool my seats?" You don't! There is a button just beneath the touchscreen that has a picture of two seats facing each other. You can use that button in cases when the navigation or something else is onscreen..:) I know the owners manual is a big read. But it's there for a reason. Before mit picking the car to death, read the manual people! It's like Prego.. "It's in there!"

Stunning car by Proud Jag Owner on 05/18/2013. Trim: 2013 Jaguar XJ, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: FIrst saw this car next to an S class MB. The Jag was absolutely STUNNING! The MB didn't stand a chance next to the Jag. Bought one a few months later and, again, ABSOLUTELY STUNNING....! V6 engine offers fuel efficiency and performance.
Cons: Wish the price was a bit lower but for this car I was willing to pay full price for it.
Overall review: Just Absolutely Gorgeous! Breathtaking, Stunning, Beautiful
Review ID: #572858 Is this review offensive?
The New Standard by NDL on 10/20/2013. Trim: 2013 Jaguar XJL Portfolio, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: I have owned the XJL for approximately 6 months, having driven it about 5,500 miles. The car is stunning inside and out. It's everything a luxury car should be: distinctive, made with fine materials and workmanship, agile, fast, silent, has a superior sound system, comforting, smooth, fast and delivers better than expected mileage - nearly 30 mpg with 2/3 highway driving. I have owned many other 'luxury' cars and presently also own a BMW. The Jaguar redefines - at least for me - what a quality automobile should/could be. It is clearly the best car I have ever owned. Bravo!!!
Cons: To appear to be even handed I really would have like to put down some negative comments - but I can't in good conscience. No complaints or suggestions for improvement.
Overall review: If you're reading this you're likely shopping for a high-end car. Do yourself a favor and check out the Jaguar XJL - this car sets the standard for luxury cars IMHO.

No Longer One of the Sheep! by Steve,RI on 09/17/2013. Trim: 2013 Jaguar XJ AWD, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: Everything!
Cons: Nothing. I traded my BMW 7 series for the XJ and am thrilled that I did. Also owned an S class Mercedes and don'y miss it at all. If I wanted a car that looked and performed like every other luxury car on the market, I would have bought another BMW or another Mercedes. I'll keep my Jag, thank you.
Overall review: Outstanding!
