No matter what type of content you are producing the goal is to keep the reader engaged and bring them closer. Writing that is informative, interesting and engaging will draw the reader in and keep them satisfied. To do this magnetic copy needs to be created.
It may seem as though creating magnetic copy is an 'easier said than done' idea, but there are several ways to write copy that will bring the reader closer.
Interested in learning more about how magnetic copy can improve your content? Read our ebook, "How to be the King of Content Marketing" to learn more!
Be Direct
People spend very little time looking at the content in front of them. They want to quickly glance over what they find and get to the main point. Therefore, get to the main point…quickly.
Not only should your writing be direct in getting to the point, but in the flow of writing as well. Short sentences work. They break up the information. You still want to be entertaining when writing, just brief. People go on the Internet to read lots of short articles not a novel hundreds of pages long.
Being brief also means eliminating hedging. Hedging is using vague, cautious language when making a claim. For example, "Nowadays almost all marketers have at least some love for social media." The hedges are "almost all" and "at least some love." Get to the point and just say, "Nowadays marketers love social media."
Be Yourself
Let your voice shine through when you create content. The piece of work is your own. Readers want to relate to what they are reading the author of the content. Trying to sound too informative using a voice other than your own will only decrease your credibility. Writing informally helps you be seen as a real person, not a robotic writer.
Telling a story is always a great way to attract an audience. Telling a story about a personal experience will resonate better than stiff facts and boring analysis. Readers can relate to stories and feel more involved. Your goal is to get the reader involved in your content; this is an easy way to do so.
When researching a specific topic for a long period of time you start to see repetition in facts and content. Using your own voice, telling stories and doing so in a timely manner will make your content stand out from the rest. Your readers will be attracted to your copy and you will be able to draw the reader in and continue to bring them back for more.

Posted 14 December 2013 - 13:04
The first one, .150, is the build that comes with the new Lumia 1520/1320. The newest one is just bug fixes, nothing new added to it. In my opinion I think the next update we get is a beta of 8.1 in February or March with build now being in April. Or build could be when we get a beta/preview for 8.1 and we see a small update again to get ready for it.
This all depends on how update 3 goes out officially through the carriers first and if they want to wait for update 3 to finish going out before they seed a new preview build.

The longest dry spell in Jimmie Cooper's brief ProRodeo career came to a screeching halt at the end of July.
The rookie cowboy from Stephenville, Texas, teamed up with his twin brother Jake to win $4,000 each at the Days of '47 in Salt Lake City and followed that by winning the all-around title and the team roping aggregate crown at the Days of '76 Rodeo in Deadwood, S.D. (July 29-Aug. 1), bringing home an additional $4,426.
Cooper hadn't won a big check since the early spring. For a lot of cowboys, that would have been a tough stretch to handle. But Cooper is wiser than most 20-year-olds, especially in the ways of ProRodeo.
He attributes that mainly to his father, Jimmie Sr., who won the world all-around championship in 1981.
"He just tells us to be patient and let things happen," Jimmie said.
As sage as that advice is, it is sometimes tough for a rookie cowboy to follow. But the Coopers listened to their father, and now their patience is being rewarded with some nice paychecks.
The Coopers opted to turn pro this year and, just like all young cowboys, they have had to do their share of learning.
"When you first come out, you see all these great ropers, and you want to go out and beat them," Jimmie said. "But you have to learn to stay within yourself and rope your style. When you do that, more often than not, you'll win."
It's a lesson the Coopers learned the hard way.
"It's like you have to lose before you figure it out," Jimmie said.
Yet, they also have adapted quickly, perhaps because the brothers have each other. The Coopers have roped together since the two were 12. That allegiance will never be broken.
While their team-roping venture is starting to pay off, so is Jimmie's desire to expand his roping skills to tie-down roping.
The Coopers roped their way to the team roping aggregate title in Deadwood, S.D., tying for first place in Round 1 with a run of 5.6 seconds, placing third in Round 2 at 5.7 and finishing with a two-head total of 11.3 seconds. They earned $3,952 each.
Jimmie also tied for sixth in Round 1 of the tie-down roping competition.
For Jimmie, winning the team roping title was special, but capturing the all-around crown was even more so.
"I'll always be a team roper," Jimmie said, "but I'm trying to be a tie-down roper, too."
Thanks to their recent surge, Jake now is ranked No. 20 in the world team roping heading standings and Jimmie climbed to No. 23 in the world team roping heeling standings with $19,973.
"It's nice to get some good news," Jimmie said.
Yet, he downplayed his skill in the win in Deadwood.
"I drew really well in the first round of the tie-down roping," Jimmie said. "They had some really good steers and we drew really well in the team roping, too."
That doesn't sound like a rookie talking. One more sign that Cooper and his brother are learning quickly.

1993 Acura Legend Q&A
1993 Acura Legend Question: Smoke out of tail pipe
Both my 92 and 93 acura legends smoke when car sits for a while like in traffic and at traffic lights, but once I press the gas pedal and start moving smoke usually goes away in a few seconds. Is it valve seals or rings? It seems like there is oil dripping somewhere what are possible solutions. - divineeye
2 Answers
Answer 1
A engine that is "burning oil" has several distinctive features to look for in determining the problem at hand. When you start a car from cold in the morning and see a cloud of bluish grey smoke emitted from the tail pipe it is usually a sign of bad valve guide seals or worn valve guides in the cylinder head. When idling at a traffic light and you gently move away and see blue grey smoke from the exhaust that too is valve guide wear or valve guide seals. If with an engine at operating temprature blue smoke is emitted from the tail pipe that is usually worn piston rings. Blue smoke all the time is a worn out engine. It is important to determine the color of the exhaust smoke. Black emission is excess fuel, white smoke that smells slightly sweet, is usually a sign of a blown head gasket, blue /grey smoke is engine oil being burned by the engine. - patrick mannion

When accelerate from stop after idle. There is trail of smoke from tailpipe for a short distance. I notice more smoke the longer the car idle. Is there some type of additive can be added to fuel?

Freshman Goaltender Leads Friars to 5-3 Win Over UMass
PROVIDENCE, R.I.--....Freshman goaltender Boyd Ballard made 42 saves and junior center Mike Omicioli had two goals and an assist to lead the Providence College Friars to a 5-3 win over the University of Massachusetts Minutemen in HOCKEY EAST action Saturday night.
The win runs PC's winning streak to six straight games and improves the Friars to 7-2-0 overall and 3-2-0 in HOCKEY EAST action. UMass falls to 2-7-0 on the year and the Minutemen are now 0-6-0 in league play.
Ballard, the Friars' 5-10, 180-pound goaltender from Weyburn, Saskatchewan ran his personal winning streak to six straight games in making the career high 42 saves. The acrobatic goaltender was at his best in the second period when he stopped 18 of 19 UMass shots until PC could get its offense rolling.
Omicioli got the Friars on the board just 18 seconds into the game when he deflected a Jay Leach wrist shot past UMass's Brian Regan on his stick side.
The Friars had a chance to go up 2-0 when UMass' Mike Gaffney went off for hooking at 9:39, but things didn't work PC's way as Tim Hirsch put Nathan Sell in on a shorthanded breakaway and he scored between Ballard's pads to even the game at one apiece.
Providence rebounded less than a minute later on the same Gaffney penalty as Omicioli got his second of the game, blasting the rebound of a Josh MacNevin slapshot over the fallen Regan. For Omicioli the two goals give him five on the season.
The pesky Minutemen came back though. Senior center Tim Lovell got his fifth of the season when he pounced on the rebound of a Chris Fawcett shot at 16:59 to close out the first period scoring at 2-2.
UMass would up the lead to 3-2 early in the second period during a 19-shot barrage. Kris Wallis came out of the right corner and stuffed the puck past Ballard at 2:29. The Minutemen poured on the offense, but Ballard was equal to the task, making 18 saves in the period.
Providence tied the game at 5:22 of the period when Doug Sheppard one-timed a beautiful centering feed from junior Jon Coe past Regan. PC hustle helped Troy Lake put Providence ahead 4-3 at the 12:00 minute mark of the second period. As Coe raced in on a breakaway chance at the UMass blueline, he was pulled down. With a delayed penalty called, Coe got up and continued toward the UMass goal where he fired a low wrister at Regan. The UMass goaltender got a pad on it but Lake backhanded the rebound ove him for the goal.
PC would add a Josh MacNevin power play goal at 16:35 of the second period for a 5-3 Friar lead. The third period was all goaltending as Ballard made 14 saves on the way to 42 for the game. Regan stopped 13 of his 31 saves in the game in the final period as both goaltenders held the opposition off the scoreboard.
The Friars return to action on Tuesday, November 25th when they travel to Northeastern for a 7:00 p.m. game at Matthews Arena in Boston.

WOW! WOW! WOW! This is a keeper, too, Michelle. Thanks so much! The only thing I changed was to lessen the dijon by 2T and add an additional 1t of vinegar because Gato's comment, "A little too much Dijon." So, if you don't LOVE it, cut back! (Same for the honey. Gato loves it but I'm not into the sweet.) MADE FOR PAC FALL 07

The invention concerns a manually power driven screwdriver, awl, nutdriver or the like having a handle shaped and dimensioned on its external circumferential surface to be mated with and driven by a conventional female ratchet or socket. Great torque and axial pressure may be applied via the power driven tool, facilitating the removal of frozen bolts, nuts, screws, etc.
1. A hand tool, power driven by a ratcheting mechanism, the hand tool comprising in combination:
a shank having a longitudinal axis;
an elongated cylindrical handle having a rounded distal end, a shank end to which the shank is attached, a first circumferential surface of smaller diameter than cylindrical handle with a plurality of faces at the distal end of the handle and a second circumferential surface of smaller diameter than cylindrical handle with a plurality of faces at the shank end of the handle,
a ratcheting mechanism engagable with said plurality of faces,
wherein the ratcheting mechanism engages the hand tool via the plurality of faces for driving the hand tool about the longitudinal axis of the shank, said ratcheting mechanism being so positioned that the rounded distal end of the handles protrudes there through.
2. A hand tool as defined in claim 1, wherein the plurality of faces comprise at least six faces which engage the ratcheting mechanism.
3. A hand tool as defined in claim 2, wherein the plurality of faces comprises at least twelve faces which engage the ratcheting mechanism.
The invention relates to a tool such as a screwdriver, nut driver or the like having a handle with an external surface modified to mate with and be driven by a ratchet mechanism.
A common experience to hand tool operators is the difficulty in loosening rust-frozen screws, bolts or nuts. Typically, to loosen nuts and bolts, a standard socket, driven by a manually operated ratchet tool, is employed. MacNeill proposed in U.S. Pat. No. Des. 207,125 a ratchet tool which is apparently adapted to receive a square-holed socket at the end of its shank. As to drivers for screws, Bakeman in U.S. Pat. No. Des. 128,609 shows a screwdriver bit which is apparently inserted into a standard socket to be driven thereby. Another screwdriver bit is disclosed by Magnus in U.S. Pat. No. Des. 150,800 wherein the bit includes a square hole for receiving a shank of MacNeill, it seems. As bits, neither the Magnus or Bakeman devices include handles for manual operation and are useful only in conjunction with a driven tool. Roberts, et al teaches in U.S. Pat. No. 3,475,999 a ratchet hand tool mechanism including a shaft having a square socket into which a screwdriver bit is inserted. The shaft rotates within the handle to eliminate the necessity of a user changing his grip on the tool handle. In U.S. Pat. No. 4,356,852 to Smith, a screwdriver is disclosed wherein the handle end has a well for receiving a torque producing socket wrench drive. The drive engages the screwdriver shank within the well such that the torque is transmitted directly to the shank.
The invention involves a screwdriver, awl, nutdriver or the like having a handle with an external surface modified to mate with and be driven by a ratchet tool. As designed the invention allows the simultaneous application of an axial pressure and torque in a manner that greatly facilitates the loosening of rust-frozen bolts, nuts or screws.
The handle in one embodiment is provided with a plurality of surfaces running the entire length of the handle. The preferred six or twelve-sided handle may be engaged by a conventional twelve-point socket of the type used to turn hexagonal nuts or bolts. A rubber hand-grip may be slipped over the handle covering a major portion thereof provided a sufficient length of the handle is exposed for mating with the socket. Another embodiment of the invention involves a handle with a multi-surfaced end opposite the tool shank. The distal end of the handle only is surfaced for mating with a socket or ratchet driver. A normal grip is shaped or formed along the remaining handle length. Alternately, the six or twelve-sided portion may be that end of the handle secured to the tool shank. The invention is also realized by a multi-tiered handle wherein portions of the handle have various shapes. For instance, the handle distal end may have twelve surfaces, the middle may include a typical grip, and the handle shank end may comprise six faces and have a diameter less than the distal end. Features of the different embodiments are somewhat interchangeable as discussed in greater detail below.
An object of the invention is to provide a tool of simple construction which can be inexpensively manufactured.
A further object is to realize a manually operated tool with which a large axial pressure and great torque can be simultaneously generated;
Another object is to furnish a tool with a handle having various shapes, enabling use of the tool with different sized ratcheting devices.

FIG. 7b is an end view of the FIG. 7a device.
FIG. 8a is a variation of the FIG. 7a embodiment.
FIG. 8b is an end view of the FIG. 8a device.
FIG. 1a shows a hand tool 10, which as evidenced by the blade 12, is a typical screwdriver. The blade 12 is formed at the end of a shank 14, the shank 14 being attached in a known manner to an elongated handle 16. As viewed in FIG. 1a, three visible faces 18 extend the length of the handle 16 except for the rounded end 20 of the handle 16. Three more faces, obviously not visibly in this figure, extend along the back of the handle 16. A ratcheting mechanism is shown at 22 and comprises a conventional ratchet drive tool or ratcheting socket head for instance. The ratcheting mechanism 22 is moved along axis 24 until the handle 16 is mated therewith, the six faces 18 being engaged by a corresponding recess 26 in the ratcheting mechanism 22. Conventional operation of the ratcheting mechanism 22 causes the hand tool 10 to rotate about axis 24 in a clockwise or counter-clockwise fashion 18, as desired. An end view of the hand tool 10 is provided in FIG. 1b wherein the six faces 18 are readily apparent. The six faces 28 form a circumferential surface around the handle 16 that is engaged by the ratcheting mechanism recess 26. Because the recess 26 engages the external faces 18, a relatively large moment are "r" is available that is only limited by the full diameter of the handle 16. Thus, if a constant force "F" is applied to the external surface of the handle 16 via the ratcheting mechanism 22, a large torque results (Tqu=r�F). Obviously when the same constant force "F" is applied to prior art hand tools which do not utilize a maximum moment arm, as is realized in the present invention, less torque is generated. Thus, an individual may be able to free rust-frozen bolts that would be impossible to loosen with other devices when exerting maximum physical effort.
Another important feature and advantage of the invention now becomes apparent. When a screwdriver is turned by hand the blade frequently slips from the screw head slot unless adequate pressure is directed along the longitudinal axis of the screwdriver. The tighter the screw, the greater the axial pressure must be to insure non-slip of the blade, otherwise injury to the tool operator may occur. However, a tool incorporating the features of the present invention will not slip quite as readily from an element which is being driven thereby. While a first hand of the operator activates the ratcheting mechanism 22, the second hand may apply a downward pressure along the longitudinal axis of the tool 10 via the handle 16. The first hand may also provide additional axial pressure and the second hand may also restrain the tool from becoming misaligned with the driven element.
FIG. 2 shows a hand tool 10 which is a variation of the FIG. 1a embodiment. The phillips head 30 is attached to the handle 16 via the shank 14. A phillips head 30 is shown merely to illustrate that the particular tool head (screw blade, phillips blade, etc.) is of no consequence with respect to the novelty and advantage of the power driven tool described herein. As embodied in FIG. 2a, the handle 16 is provided with twelve surfaces 32, corresponding to the twelve-pointed recess commonly found in ratchet driven sockets. Each of the twelve surfaces 32 engage a single point of such a socket recess. FIG. 2b shows an end view of handle 16, wherein the shape of the twelve surfaces 32 is more clearly seen. A cross section of the handle 16 would reveal a star-shaped surface with twelve points. However, each surface 32 need not terminate in a defined edge. The handle 16 may be designed with a cross section that resembles a gear having trapezoidal teeth, provided the surface 32 are dimensioned to be received by a twelve-pointed socket recess. Again, the surfaces 32 extend the length of the elongated handle 16 and a large movement arm "r" is available in that the full radius of the handle 16 is utilized.
In FIG. 3a, another embodiment of the invention is portrayed to which the general principals of the FIG. 1a embodiment are applicable. Here, the hand tool 10 comprises an awl 34 instead of a standard or phillips screwdriver as discussed above. The handle 16 at it distal end 36 is shaped to include six surfaces 18, the remainder of the handle length comprising a grip 38 which is grasped by the operator when using the hand tool 10. In this case, the ratcheting mechanism is slipped onto the distal end 36 to engage the six surfaces 18. The grip 38 is presented merely for the convenience of the operator and does not interact with the ratcheting mechanism 22. The end view of the FIG. 3a handle 16 is seen in FIG. 3b. The grip 38 has a diameter slightly larger than that of the distal end 36, merely as a matter of illustration and may be of the same diameter if desired. The moment arm "r" available to the ratcheting mechanism 22 is measured from the longitudinal axis to the surfaces 18. See FIG. 3b.
The FIG. 4a version concerns a nut driver which incorporates a distal end 36 including twelve surfaces 32 adjacent to the grip 38. As mentioned with respect to the FIG. 2a variation, the twelve surfaces 32 are engaged by a twelve-point recess of a ratchet driven socket, however, at the distal end 36 only. Also, the surfaces 32 need not present a sharp edge, but may have a substantially trapezoidal cross-section. The FIG. 4a handle 16 is viewed from its end in FIG. 4b where the moment arm "r" is evident.
The FIG. 5a embodiment involves a hand tool 10 comprising a screwdriver, awl, nut driver, etc. wherein the handle 16 comprises a grip 38 except at the end secured to shank 14. The shank end 42 of the handle 16 has a six-sided surface 18 for engagement by a ratcheting mechanism of the type generally disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,475,999 to Roberts, et al, for instance. FIG. 5b reveals the corresponding moment arm "r" in an end view of the FIG. 5a handle arrangement.
In FIG. 6a, the shank end 42 of handle 16 is twelve sided (32), while the moment arm "r" is indicated in FIG. 6b. It is believed that in view of the discussion with respect to the prior embodiments, the advantageous features of the variation portrayed in FIGS. 6a and 6b are apparent and need not be detailed further. The aspects of the invention as described concerning FIG. 5a are generally applicable.
FIG. 7a depicts a hand tool 10 which incorporates a handle 16 with a grip 38 separating a six-surfaced distal end 36 and a twelve-sided shank end 42. Thus, the hand tool 10 can be driven via either handle end (36,42) by either of two different ratcheting drivers, whichever is available to the operator. End view 7b shows the two moment arms "r1 ", and "r2 " which may be utilized.
Conversely, FIG. 8a portrays a distal end 36 with twelve surfaces 32 and a shank end 42 with six surfaces 18 and a grip 38 therebetween to facilitate engagement with various ratcheting mechanisms 22. The moment arms "r1 " and "r2 " are shown in FIG. 8b.
Other modifications are apparent to one skilled in the art which do not depart from the spirit of the invention. The described embodiments are therefore considered to be only illustrative and not restructive; the scope of the invention being defined by the appended claims.

If he wants a one or two year deal to prove he's healthy, fine, but I'm not comfortable with 3+ years.
If he scores 45 points and add's toughness and leadership he is worth the money. If he was scoring 50+ points he would be looking at 4-5 million/season easily. Guys like him don't grow on trees.
After a pretty bad shoulder injury which he attempted to play through to help the team he was on pace for ~40 points in 82 games. That's with playing with a significant injury.

'Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl': Johnny Depp as Capt. Jack Sparrow. 'Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl' review: Mostly an enjoyable romp (Oscar Movie Series) Pirate movies were a Hollywood staple for about three decades, from the mid-'20s (The Sea Hawk, The Black Pirate) to the mid-to-late '50s (Moonfleet, The Buccaneer), when the genre, by then mostly relegated to B films, began to die down. Sporadic resurrections in the '80s and '90s turned out to be critical and commercial bombs (Pirates, Cutthroat Island), something that didn't bode well for the Walt Disney Company's $140 million-budgeted film "adaptation" of one of their theme-park rides. But Neptune's mood has apparently improved with the arrival of the new century.

Luc Besson's EuropaCorp company is participating in CineEurope this week where they announced their list of upcoming movies.
The big surprise is that sequels to last year's Scarlett Johansson sci-fi thriller "Lucy," and the Zoe Saldana action thriller "Colombiana" are both in development.
A year ago Besson himself was asked "Lucy" sequel prospects to which he replied "I don't see how we can do [a sequel]. It''s not made for that." Looks like someone found a way.
Also on the way are "Shut In" with Naomi Watts, "Nine Lives" with Kevin Spacey, "The Lake" with Sullivan Stapleton, and "Escobar" with Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz which are all due next year. The Dave Bautista-led "Warrior's Gate" and Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne-starring "Valerian" are also due in 2017. »

Say what you will about Luc Besson, but the guy knows how to craft a kick-ass action heroine. At CineEurope 2015, his production house EuropaCorp unveiled a packed slate of upcoming films, and included in the roster were a pair of sequels to two of Besson's most successful female-driven action-thrillers: Lucy and Colombiana. That's right – despite Scarlett Johansson's psychokinetic badass ascending past human form at the end of Lucy, and Zoe Saldana's revenge-minded assassin slaying the man responsible for her parents' murders, both characters are gearing up for more carnage-heavy adventures.
It shouldn't really come as a surprise that Besson is interested in Lucy 2 and Colombiana 2 – both films were solid performers at the box office (especially Lucy) and starred actresses who are becoming more bankable by the week – Johansson is a proven draw for audiences with Marvel fans in her pocket, while Saldana recently led Guardians of the Galaxy »

"I don't see how we can do [a sequel]. It's not made for that," Luc Besson said last summer about the prospect of a sequel to the surprise smash hit "Lucy." "If I find something good enough, maybe I will, but for now I don't even think about it." Well, it looks like he's thought about it and something is brewing. At CineEurope 2015, production house EuropaCorp (which Besson heads up) announced their slate of upcoming films, which quietly mentioned that "Lucy 2" was "in development." Here's the roster: "Shut In" with Naomi Watts (International Release Date February 19, 2016) "Nine Lives" with Kevin Spacey (International Release Date April 29, 2016) "The Lake" with Sullivan Stapleton (International Release date July 15, 2016) "Warrior's Gate" with Dave Bautista (date undetermined output) "The Transporter Legacy" with Ed Skrein (Release date September 9, 2015) "Escobar" with Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz (Released in 2016) »

From Zoolander 2 to 23 Jump Street, with 100s in-between. Here's our rundown of the assorted movie sequels in the works...
Think Hollywood is bereft of original ideas? You just might after this. Here's our look at the assorted movie sequels currently in the works. Since we last did a list like this, we've dropped films that seem to have died a death - Wanted 2, Spring Breakers 2 - but we'll keep this rundown up to date over the coming month.
Without further ado...
23 Jump Street
Sony is pressing ahead with a third Jump Street movie, as well as a possible Jump Street vs Men In Black film, and a female-headlined spin-off. For 23 Jump Street specifically, Rodney Rothman is back and working on the script (he wrote the second one). It's unclear yet if Chris Miller and Phil Lord can find breathing space in their schedule to direct. Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill are both expected back, »

Penelope Cruz's father has reportedly passed away. The 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides' actress' father Eduardo Cruz is believed to have died early this morning aged 62 after suffering a heart attack at his home in Spain. The brother of Eduardo's wife Carmen Moreno is said to have confirmed the news to Hola! magazine. Medics were reportedly called to the family home at around 2am but could do nothing to save his life, sources told The Truth magazine. The 62-year-old father-of-four lived with his wife Carmen - who he married in April 2014 after 12 years together - and their three-year-old daughter Salma. The couple managed a hair and beauty salon together near their home in La Manga. Eduardo also had three children - Penelope, Monica and Eduardo - from his first marriage to Cruz's mother Encarna Sanchez. While Penelope has had a successful career in Hollywood, Monica »

Sony Pictures Classics has acquired North American distribution rights to Pedro Almodóvar's forthcoming "Silencio," the director's 20th feature and his tenth collaboration with Spc. The film, which stars Adriana Ugarte, Emma Suárez, Daniel Grao, Dario Grandinetti, Inma Cuesta, Michelle Jenner, and recent Cannes juror Rossy de Palma, follows its protagonist Julieta (Ugarte and Suárez) from 1985 to the present, as she deals with the disappearance of her daughter and "struggles to survive on the verge of madness." As the Spanish auteur told Variety in January, the "hard-hitting drama" once again finds him working within "the cinema of women, of great female protagonists," though the material was not quite suited to Almodóvar stalwarts like Penelope Cruz or Antonio Banderas—thus the cast of relative unknowns. "'Silencio' is about destiny, guilt and the unfathomable mystery that leads some people to abandon »

The film was originally scheduled to open Jan. 16. "Escobar," the directorial debut of Italian actor Andrea Di Stefano, combines the true story of Colombia's drug king Pablo Escobar with a love story between a young Canadian surfer, played by "Hunger Games" star Josh Hutcherson, and Escobar's niece (Claudia Traisac).
The film received positive notices at Telluride and Toronto Film Festivals. "Escobar" "offers an odd mix of action movie, romantic melodrama and cautionary traveler's tale, which works better than it should thanks to Del Toro's fascinating performance and Di Stefano's assured, muscular helming," said Variety's Scott Foundas in his Telluride review.
Escobar died in a shootout in 1993. Luc Besson's EuropaCorp announced at Cannes that it was developing an Escobar biopic with Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz starring. »

'Yesterday' movie: Leleti Khumalo and Lihle Mvelase. 'Yesterday' movie review: Fantastic central performance in South African AIDS drama To date, nowhere has the AIDS pandemic been felt more strongly than in Sub-Saharan Africa, home to approximately 10 percent of the world's population and two-thirds of the planet's 30-35 million AIDS cases. In the past thirty years, it is estimated that more than 20 million Sub-Saharan Africans have died from complications of the disease.* Even today, drug cocktails that are relatively accessible in other parts of the globe are still beyond the means of the vast majority of Africans. Writer-director Darrell Roodt's South African drama Yesterday is set in this catastrophic scenario. The film depicts the effects of AIDS in the life of a young Zulu woman who contracts HIV from her husband. Although Roodt's narrative maintains its focus on the plight of one particular individual, the (for non-Zulus) quirkily named Yesterday represents millions of other women, »

Cameron Crowe has made a career telling stories of flawed men who are saved thanks to young, quasi-magical women. His best films have shown the cracks in these maniacal pixies. Consider the crippling self-doubt of Penny Lane in Almost Famous, or the world-weariness of Renee Zellweger's Dorothy Boyd in Jerry Maguire.

Masked and Anonymous (2003) Dylan played the role of Jack Fate, a former rock legend with a dying career who is forced to make a comeback, in the Larry Charles-directed music drama.

Amy Adams drop dead gorgeous on Oscars' Red Carpet Amy Adams at the 83rd Academy Awards Looking drop dead gorgeous, Amy Adams is pictured above donning a scintillating blue dress while arriving at the 2011 Oscar ceremony, held on Feb. 27 at the Kodak Theatre in the fast-thumping heart of Hollywood. Adams was – for the third time in six years (more info below) – a Best Supporting Actress nominee. This time around, she was shortlisted for her performance in David O. Russell's The Fighter, a generally well-regarded and surprisingly successful (in the U.S.) boxing drama that earned fellow supporting actress Melissa Leo the evening's Oscar. Another The Fighter actor, Christian Bale (Batman Begins, The Dark Knight), took home the Best Supporting Actor Oscar statuette. In fact, the film's only major cast member left without an Oscar nomination in the acting categories was lead Mark Wahlberg (pictured with wife) – though he did »

This week's biggest upcoming project was one so weird that we needed a few days to process it. It has been called Godzilla meets Being John Malkovich and Adaptation (possibly even Lost in Translation for good measure), and if it seems like those two titles don't add up in anyway whatsoever, you're not far off.
The movie is Colossal, and THR reports is set to star Anne Hathaway. Hathaway plays a woman returning to her hometown from New York after losing her job. Upon returning home, she discovers that a giant lizard is attacking Tokyo, and she feels strangely connected to the incident via her mind.
Colossal isn't even some tongue-in-cheek Spike Jonze project but coming from Nacho Vigalondo (Timecrimes), and aiming to be sold at this year's Cannes Film Festival market. "Colossal is my most ambitious script so far, and probably also the most personal one. »

Cruz is set to play Vallejo, who had a relationship with him and testified on some of his actions during a 2008 investigation into the 1985 Palace of Justice siege, which left 100 people dead.

About MeHello!
My name is Madelyn Smith. I'm 19 years old and I love making the pictures in my head a reality. I've been a photography lover since I first got my DSLR six years ago. I've been a portrait photographer for local seniors and dancers in my area for about 4 years since! I have recently have started attending Columbia College in Chicago, IL for photography so I tend to split my time between Chicago and South Bend.
I'm an experienced dancer (16 years of ballet, modern, and tap) so I find photographing dancers to be one of my favorite past times and my experience in dance is great for getting just the right shot!
Also, I've been published in Golden Age Magazine and have had pictures in two local photography exhibits.
As part of my more serious approach to photography, I'm looking for serious models to help create more conceptual photographs. However, I'm always willing to just work with models for the sake of a shoot and not worry about money because I am such a young photographer and I still go to college.
Thank you for looking at my photography!

In the Spring of 1964, a few months after President Kennedy's death, Jacqueline Kennedy recorded a series of interviews with historian and family friend Arthur Schlesinger, Jr. At the age of 34, with the White House years behind her, she was speaking for the historical record - to preserve and shape her husband's legacy. The interviews, held in deposit at the Kennedy Library were sealed for 47 years. In 2011, the 50th anniversary of the Kennedy Presidency, her family decided it was the right time to share these conversations with the public. On September 14, 2011, portions of them will be featured in a special exhibit in the Museum at the JFK Presidential Library.

Move aside Romeo and Juliet, Mumtaz and Shah Jahan and Lancelot and Guinevere. Fitness First Middle East's special body fat analysis V-Day promotion puts even the timeless classics to shame.
February 10, 2013 5:58 by Eva Fernandes
For the past two weeks my inbox has been clogged up with all kinds of Valentine's Day-related press releases. From special meals, heart shaped cupcakes, diamond jewels, flowers and stuffed animals there seems to be no end to the standard unimaginative promotions brands in the UAE have on offer.
Or so I thought, until I received the following SMS from Fitness First this morning:
"Bring a buddy with you and get FREE GIFTS and BODY COMPOSITION ANALYSIS this valentine week."
Woah, easy on the saccharine, Fitness First. There is only so much ooey-gooey-super-sugary-lovey-doveyness I can handle (especially if I am going to be getting a body composition analysis in a few days)—and the romance promised by this offer is just too much for me.
Seeing as the promotion is running during 'valentine week' it safe to assume the campaign is aiming to get members to bring their better (and fatter) halves in to the gym. The decision to use the term 'buddy' might be a result of some strange misguided understanding of cultural sensitivity ala N_K_D Pizza-style.
If my assumption of target audience for this Valentine's Week promotion is right, I must ask: how on earth did the marketing team decide a giving free body composition analysis would be an appropriate Valentine's Day gift? I may not be Cupid, but I hardly think the regular Jo or Jane would be flattered by the prospect of spending their Valentine's Day getting a reading of their own body fat percentage .
Sure, the results may help you answer those tricky 'Do I look fat in this?' questions with much accuracy but at what cost? While understanding and assessing one's body composition is vital to developing fitness, it doesn't quite hold a candle to building a Taj Mahal or composing a Keatsian sonnet.
Cashing in on Valentine's Day is an excellent idea for a brand, but why not invest some time in considering what the day is all about. Why not offer a complimentary Salsa class? Or better yet, why not align promotions with fitness related events?

If you're in a hurry to get back to that porno site, here it is: If an artist tried to do a rewrite of Elvis Costello's Armed Forces, could come close to the vocal sound and song styles, but made the mistake of having his grandma track the drums, here's your recording.
What is my problem, you ask? My problem is that there is some great stuff on here, and I kept on asking myself why I wasn't loving it. I wanted to embrace this. Kinda like (if you are a guy) the girl you date who is beautiful who just can't shift it into high gear. If you are a woman, the guy who looks like a stud, but…isn't. You know what I mean. No amount of rationalization makes it work, and like Jane Cook from college (the name has been changed to protect me from my past!), though I tried to love this, I finally had to give up because it just was not there.
The Wes Hollywood Show
Playing Favourites
(Net Wt.)
"Solid Action" and "Heartaches are History" are great songs in a "Pump It Up," "Radio, Radio" and "Oliver's Army" vein. But the drums are not there. In "Heartaches…" when the drummer goes to the ride cymbal on the chorus, the drums drop out. No bass drum at all. Pete Thomas of The Attractions was/is a master of bottom end, giving the Costello sound that throbbing feel. You need good feet. The drummer here is always a half step behind in another world. Plainly…bad. Such a shame because so many try to do the Costello thing and fall flat where the vocals stink and the songs just don't cut it. That is not the case here.
If you like Costello, you will probably like this. I'm a purist, and the drum thing may not be as obvious to you. There are some great songs on here, and I hate to dissuade you from checking this out because of that. But there's only 24 hours in a day, and so much money for CDs. You decide.
