Megan Fox Wants Kids with "Soulmate" Brian Austin Green


They've been off, they've been on and they've been off again.

But Megan Fox is now committed to Brian Austin Green and wants the world to know.

"We've had obstacles, and we've overcome them," Fox says in the new issue of Cosmopolitan. "I truly feel like he's my soul mate. I don't want to sound corny or cliche, but I do believe we are detained to live this part of our lives together."

And, if the actress has it her way, the couple won't be living this part of their lives together on their own.

Asked about kids, Fox says she wants "at least two, probably three" and refers to herself as "maternal," a classification that might shock many who assume the star to be some kind of bad ass.

"It's because I have tattoos and I say curse words, and apparently, that's crazy," Fox says of that allegation. "I think maybe I give off this energy of seeming like I don't give a f-ck, and that's misinterpreted. But I'm not wild."

Fox is also featured in the latest issue of Miami and tells that publication she wasn't always so drop dead gorgeous.

Cemetery science: Gravestones, few dead-ends

To a geologist, a gravestone can offer information other rocks can't. One project is using gravestones to better understand how the elements, particularly acid rain, are weathering rocks around the world, and how that's changed over time.?

"It is a great place for us to collect scientific data because gravestones have got dates on them, it is not that we have a morbid fascination," said Gary Lewis, director of education and outreach for the Geological Society of America, which is in charge of the Gravestone Project.

That date of death gives a good estimate of when the stone went into the ground above the grave and began to face elements.

The wear and tear on the stone that follows can be caused by freezing and thawing temperatures, lawn care machinery and rain made acidic by pollutants it has picked up in its course through the atmosphere.

"What we are trying to do is not just look at damage by acid rain, but we are trying to see how acid rain has changed over time," Lewis said.

?

The Gravestone Project recruits volunteers around the world to head into cemeteries where they use calipers to measure the width of a stone at five points along its sides and at its top. If a stone has lead letters on it, volunteers measure how much the stone has worn away from the lettering. Volunteers are asked to do this work respectfully.

Lewis and colleague Deirdre Dragovich of the University of Sydney have begun working through two years' worth of data collected so far, and they are still looking for more.

With the data they have so far, the researchers are looking at weathering rates over time and at potential links with atmospheric changes. Specifically, Lewis is interested in seeing if periods of increased rain in particular areas accelerated weathering rates, and if the arrival of the Industrial Revolution ? and the increase in pollution that accompanied it ? are reflected in increased gravestone weathering, and how the weathering rate has changed since the Industrial Revolution.?

So far, they've seen that cemeteries in big cities seem to be weathering most rapidly, he said. This isn't a surprise since more acid rain-causing pollutants, particularly sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, are released over urban areas.

Laura Guertin, an associate professor of earth science at Pennsylvania State University, already frequented the Cumberland Cemetery across the street from the Brandywine campus with her introductory geosciences students, when she began participating in the project in 2011.

?

At that cemetery and another in central Pennsylvania, Boalsburg Cemetery, she and her students have undertaken a wide range of projections, including comparing weathering rates of different types of stones (nearly all are granite or marble), and gleaning information about the history of the local community, such as how long people lived.?

"At first they are a little creeped out," Guertin said. "I tell them, 'Don't worry, I will bring you all back with me.'"

Her students found a weathering pattern they didn't expect in certain areas within Cumberland Cemetery, where they found stones with the most wear on the sides of the top of the stone, rather than at the middle point.

"This is something I want my students to look into," she said.

Lohan tells TODAY she will 'not let anyone down'

By TODAY.com

In an exclusive interview set to air on TODAY Thursday morning, Lindsay Lohan tells?Matt Lauer that she is "clean and sober" and she wants "to continue to move forward and in the right direction."

The actress, who will host "Saturday Night Live" this weekend, also told Lauer, "I still need to go through the process of proving myself."

Host Matt Lauer interviews Lindsay Lohan on TODAY.

Lohan, 25, is one court appearance away from putting her legal troubles from a 2007 drunken driving case behind her.

Lauer asked her if, when they spoke last, the actress was in denial.

"Definitely," Lohan said. "And I think it was -- it's a scary thing to have to kind of express to people ... I wasn't as comfortable with myself then.?I think it was a fear factor that I had about what was really going on.? And, you know, I had to get that wakeup call."

Lohan also told Lauer that the temptation of night life and parties is something she's avoiding.

"That's not my thing anymore. I went out, actually, a few months ago with a friend.?And I was so uncomfortable.?Not because I felt tempted, just because it was just the same thing that it always was before.?And it just wasn't fun for me.?I've become more of a homebody.?And I like that."

It may be that change in lifestyle, or at the least the perception that there has been a change, that will help the actress get back to work.

"Do you think people have gotten back, or can get back to the point where they trust you?" Lauer asked. "In other words, professional people??You know, if they say to you, 'Come host 'Saturday Night Live',' that's a big commitment.?And do you think the producers and directors of movies and television projects are going to get back to the part where they can go, 'You know what?? Yeah, we can count on Lindsay.?We can bank on her?'"

"I think that that's gonna take -- I think that takes time," Lohan said. "And I think that it's actions.?Because people can say things all they want, but I think I still need to go through the process of proving myself, you know, with 'SNL,' being on time, being, you know, keeping my -- can't say the word -- but stuff together."

Lohan offers details on reports that she's set to play Elizabeth Taylor in her next project.

"We're in the middle of casting and figuring -- we start production soon," Lohan said. "I've been doing tons of research.?But I've always kind of researched her.?She's always been a fascinating woman to me.?So I'm really honored.?And I will not let anyone down, especially myself."?

Asked about that need to qualify her commitment, Lohan says she understands how it might be scary for people to invest in her.

"I don't want people to have that reason to be scared anymore.?So being able to have this opportunity with 'SNL' and the film, I'm gonna do what I'm supposed to do, and enjoy doing it, and do it as best as I can."

Tune into TODAY on Thursday, March 1, to watch Matt Lauer's exclusive interview with Lindsay Lohan.

How to Cure the Fear of Death and Dying

Anxiety about dying and dying are members of a persons condition. What is natural rather than dread your day whenever you will cease to operate, cease to attract breath? Couple of folks the west wish to face your day when almost all their current focal points will end up meaningless, when almost all their accomplishments in existence will ultimately count for naught. Couple of wish to leave their family members behind, with only corpse to help remind them of whom you were in the past?its resemblance for you making up but a mockery of the previous identity. However, in many people, this natural, existential dread gets worse right into a full-scale fear. Many people constantly, and fruitlessly obsess with the possibilities of their very own demise, towards the extent they are afflicted by stress attacks several occasions each day. Tragically, these crippling fears may even lead individuals to commit suicide. Many people possess the idea that they must ?have it over and done with,Inch and die already, instead of carry on living a existence centered by dread and anticipation. These folks need a method to stop anxiety about dying from stopping them from taking pleasure in?as well as fully going through?existence.

When Concern Turns To Fear

When and just how does an ordinary curiosity about a person?s mortality become an obsessive fear? Why is people transition from going to graveyards from time to time (for instance, throughout memorials in order to pay respects towards the dead), to putting on black constantly, hearing morbid ?medieval? music, never departing the home, and drawing no pleasure from social interaction? What can cause individuals to always ?begin to see the skull underneath the skin,? to quote an earlier poem of T.S. Eliot?

The truth is, you will find a variety of methods to push an individual within the edge. You will find a variety of reasons people may become excessively worried about dying. Possibly an individual experienced through (as well as observed) the dying of both mom and dad in a youthful, impressionable age. Think about the myth of Batman: the dying of mom and dad triggered an regular person to become violent vigilante, in order to fight dying itself. Others may become concentrated on the thought of dying later in existence. Possibly they have experienced a stroke or gone through a existence-threatening illness. They cannot overcome their narrow avoid the clutches from the Harsh Reaper. Their obsessive ideas function just like a self-perpetuating loop: the greater they question about, and quail in anxiety about, the thought of their demise?the greater they fixate around the idea, to the stage they can?t consider other things.

Speaking Will not Stop Fear

Traditional therapy, that involves plenty of speaking and reasoning it, is among the worst methods to eliminate a crippling dependence on dying. It is incorporated in the character of the obsession that, the greater you discuss it, the worse it might be. Plus, unlike the trigger of numerous other fears, a person?s mortality isn?t an imaginary problem. To have the ability to accept a realistic look at this issue, without becoming concentrated upon it, people should try to learn to alter their thought designs.

NLP And Hypnosis Stop Anxiety About Dying Effectively

The easiest method to change a person?s thought designs is thru time-examined techniques of hypnosis and NLP (neuro-linguistic programming). They train you to definitely recognize destructive and dangerous ideas, no matter whatever consider your experience has triggered you to definitely frequently think them. After understanding how to recognize these designs of thought, NLP and hypnosis will train you to definitely dismiss them. This way, following a couple of good, extended periods, you will be in order to overcoming your anxiety about dying and making together with your existence.

?NI????

??????????????????????????????????-

The time really flew quickly. It?s almost the end of February. And 3.11, the day the Great East Japan Earthquake hit Japan, will be coming in 2?weeks.

One year ago, the Japanese people lived in the society before the earthquake. At that time, we thought differently, pursue different lifestyle, and had a different point of views. The earthquake has affected our behavior and way of?thinking.

By the earthquake, we experienced the great loss of people and town. We also face the tragedy of the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant. Because of huge damages, which also uncovered facts hid by the government, bureaucrats, corporations, scholars, and mass media, we had, for example, huge anxiety to our future, strong will to think over our society?s mode and lifestyle, empathy to feel other?s sorrow and pain, and resentment to injustice or unreasonable?things.

It has been 1 year. We still keep these thoughts and emotion in ourselves, but they seem to occupy less than before. Is it difficult to keep something we felt or thought 1 year ago, even though we got such huge?damages?

The earthquake damaged the Tohoku area badly, and the reconstruction of the damaged area is the highest priority. The earthquake also forced us to rethink our society's future. How far have we tackled the issue: from political turmoil to slow implementation of reconstruction projects, problems of the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant and radioactive contamination to corruption between the government, bureaucrats, corporations, scholars, and mass?media?

On 17 March last year, Egyptian cartoonist Amr Okasha posted his cartoon to the Cartoon Movement website, which has a lot of political cartoons and provides cartoons to the NI?magazine.

?Supporting Japan? by Amr Okasha
Japan is facing crisis upon crisis, and can use the support of the?world.

When I see this cartoon, I really appreciate warm supports from around the world, and I remember that Japan's reconstruction is not only our hope and interest, but it is also those of people around the?world.

Auburn Football: The 20 Best Defensive Players in Tigers History

52071754_crop_650x440 Chris Graythen/Getty Images

Defense has been the driving force for successful Auburn football teams in the past. When the Tigers have success stuffing the run and suppressing the pass, championships tend to follow.

The 1957 Auburn Tigers championship team didn?t allow a rushing touchdown all season. The 2010 team was No. 9 in rushing defense and finished the season with the best showing of the year against Oregon in the national title game.

Looking at past success for the Tigers, there have been some very talented Tigers that have led the charge for the lauded defenses. Looking back through the year?s at the bone-crushing hits and pick sixes, here are the top 20 defenders in Auburn Tigers history.?

Zeke Smith: DL, 1957-59

Zeke Smith was a stud defensive tackle for the 1957 Auburn Tigers national title team. He also was the first Auburn Tigers player to win the Outland Trophy for the nation?s top defensive lineman.

Smith was also a consensus All-American selection following the 1958 season, as well as a preseason Playboy All-American in 1959.

Smith played both offense and defense, but his biggest impact was along the defensive line. The 1958 Tigers defense led by Smith held the Tennessee Volunteers to minus-33 yards of offense and no first downs in their annual conference showdown.

Smith is ingrained in Auburn history with the annual awarding of the Zeke Smith Award. It has been awarded to the Auburn Tigers defensive player of the year since 1977.?

Jackie Burkett: LB, 1957-59

Jackie Burkett was a member of the Tigers national championship team in 1957 and was a multi-sport star for the Tigers. In football, he played center and linebacker.

Burkett earned All-SEC honors in 1958, and was an All-American during the 1958 and 1959. Burkett was the defensive captain during the ?59 season, calling the signals for the defense.

Burkett was considered to be a part of one of the most dominant tandems in football alongside Zeke Smith. Burkett helped lead a Tigers defense that did not allow a rushing touchdown during the 1957 season, eventually becoming the national champion for that year.?

Buddy McClinton: DB, 1967-69

Buddy McClinton was one of the few Tigers that started every game of his career for the Tigers. McClinton earned All-SEC honors all three seasons of varsity play.

In 1969, McClinton set the Auburn record for interceptions in a season finishing with nine total picks that year. He also holds the all-time record for interceptions for Auburn with 18 in his career.

1969 was also the year that McClinton earned his consensus All-American honors. Most recently, McClinton was honored by the SEC as he became one of 12 SEC Football Legends for the 2011 Legends class.?

David Langner: DB, 1971-73

David Langner is forever etched in Auburn lore for his participation in the ?Punt, Bama, Punt? game in 1972. Bill Newton blocked two consecutive Alabama punts to see Langner return both for touchdowns.

Not only did Langner return the punts for touchdowns in that game, he also intercepted two Crimson Tide passes, one of which on their final attempt to take the lead.

Outside of that one famous game, Langner turned out one of the best careers for a defensive back at Auburn. Langner is tied for fifth on Auburn?s career interception list with 12 and is also tied for second for most interceptions in a season with eight in 1972.

Langner also holds the record for the most interception return yards in a single game when he compiled 108 yards on two interceptions against UT-Chattanooga in 1971. One of those went for a touchdown.?

Freddie Smith: LB, 1976-79

Freddie Smith earned his nickname ?Fast Freddie? for a reason?the guy was a burner. Smith played during a mediocre time for Auburn football, the Doug Barfield years, but he was anything but a mediocre defender.

Smith currently holds the all-time tackle record for Auburn with 528 total tackles. Smith currently sits at the No. 1 and No. 4 position for total tackles in a season. In 1977 he recorded 193 total tackles, and in 1979 he finished with 162 total tackles.

Smith has been a player that has been somewhat lost in the shuffle of history. At the end of the day, he was one of the best linebackers to ever adorn orange and blue and is likely to never see his tackles record touched.

Smith is now a member of the Limestone County Sports Hall of Fame, becoming an inductee during the 2008 class.

Gregg Carr: LB, 1981-84

Gregg Carr finished his career as an Auburn Tiger as the second leading tackler in school history with 453 total tackles. Carr led the Tigers in tackles for three consecutive years, earning All-American honors as a senior in 1984.

Carr was nominated for the Lombardi Award in 1984 but finished with only his All-American and All-SEC honors.

Carr was selected as the SEC Athlete of the Year in 1984. Carr finished No.8 and No. 9 for tackles in a single season with a 139 tackle performance in 1984 and a 136 tackle season in 1983.

Carr was drafted in the 1985 NFL draft in the sixth round by the Pittsburgh Steelers, where he went on to play four seasons tallying seven starts.?

Aundray Bruce: LB, 1985-87

Aundray Bruce was a highly active linebacker during his time with the Tigers in the late 1980?s. Bruce garnered All-SEC honors during the 1986 and 1987 seasons and was also an All-American selection during 1987.

Bruce played alongside another famous Tiger, Kurt Crain, during the ?86 and ?87 seasons. Bruce was extremely athletic and exploded on national television with his 1987 performance against Georgia Tech. Bruce intercepted three passes and recorded 10 tackles on the way to a Tigers victory.

Bruce was drafted first overall in the 1988 draft by the Atlanta Falcons. Bruce played 11 years in the NFL.

Tracy Rocker: DL, 1985-88

Tracy Rocker is one of many talented defensive linemen to come through Auburn, but he was a cut above the rest in his time on the Plains.

Rocker was a two time All-American winner during the 1987-88 seasons. He was also the first player from the SEC to win both the Outland Trophy and the Lombardi Award in the same season.

That year, 1988, Rocker recorded 100 tackles, an enormous stat for an interior lineman. Rocker finished his career with 354 tackles, 48 of which went for loss.

Rocker is No. 7 on the Tigers all-time tackles list and No. 4 on the Tigers all-time sack leaders list with 21 sacks.

Rocker returned to the Plains for two seasons as the defensive line coach for Gene Chizik and helped guide Nick Fairley to his own Lombardi Award.

Rocker is now a part of the Tennessee Titans coaching staff guiding the defensive line which includes former Auburn Tigers Zach Clayton and Sen?Derrick Marks.

Kurt Crain: LB, 1986-87

Kurt Crain was a dangerous threat for the Auburn defense during the 1986-87 seasons. Crain was a transfer from Memphis State to the Tigers, and was a leader for his two seasons on the Plains.

Crain played for legendary coach Pat Dye who referred to Crain as having ?linebacker personality.?

Crain became an All-American during the 1987 season when he led the Tigers in tackles and interceptions. Crain was the tackling leader for the Tigers during the 1986 season as well.

His 1987 performance ranks No. 2 in total tackles in a season with 168 total tackles, while his 1986 tackling total (156 TT) places him at the No. 5 spot for tackles in a season.

Crain finished his Auburn career with 323 tackles and with two All-SEC selections under his belt.

Crain is now the linebackers and associate head coach for the University of South Alabama Jaguars.?

Quentin Riggins: LB, 1986-89

Quentin Riggins was a beastly four-year letterman for the Auburn Tigers. Riggins was a tackling machine who had a nose for the football. Riggins sits at fifth on the Tigers all-time tackles list.

Riggins finished his career with nine games totaling 15 tackles, and three others with 20 or more. The 1989 season saw Riggins take the reins as a team captain where he finished the season with 165 total tackles, the third best season in school history.

Riggins led the Tigers in tackles from 1988-89. Riggins finished his career with the Tigers as a second team All-American and first team All-SEC selection during those same seasons. In 2009, he became one of 12 selected for the 2009 SEC Football Legend?s Class.

Riggins is currently found bridging the gap between government and the private energy sector as the Vice President of Governmental Relations for Alabama Power as well as providing great sideline reporting and commentary for the Auburn Sports Network during football season.?

Terry Daniel: P, 1992-94

Punting is not first thought of when thinking defensive football, but punting is quite a formidable weapon that can work wonders for a defense.

Terry Daniel was the best punter in Auburn history. Daniel leads a long line of successful specialists that have come through Auburn.

Daniel finished his Auburn career with the longest punt average for a career with 44.51 yards per punt, and also finished the 1993 season with the best single season average with 46.92 yards per punt.

Daniel was also an All-American selection following the 1993 season.?

Brian Robinson: DB, 1992-94

Brian Robinson was an elite defensive back during the early 1990?s for the Tigers. Currently, Robinson sits at No. 3 with career interceptions and holds the record for most interceptions returned for touchdowns with three.

Robinson was an All-American selection in 1994 with a memorable performance against the No. 1 ranked Florida Gators. The moment that is caught in time in most fans memories is the winning touchdown catch from Frank Sanders.

Before the catch however Robinson had intercepted three Gators passes, the third of which set up the winning touchdown drive. Oddly enough, both Sanders and Robinson hailed from the same school in Florida, Dillard High School in Ft. Lauderdale.

Robinson finished with 13 career interceptions.

Takeo Spikes: LB, 1995-97

Takeo Spikes is a linebacker that makes hitting look smooth and effortless, until the ball carrier thuds to the ground. He has a unique playing speed and tenacity that served him well on the Plains and has seen him excel at the professional level.

At Auburn, Spikes finished No. 10 in total tackles with 331 total stops to his credit. His final season, 1997, Spikes finished with 136 total tackles placing him tied at No. 9 with Gregg Carr for total tackles in a single season.

Spikes was a 1997 All-American selection for the Tigers.

Spikes was a feared defender for the Tigers where he carried the nickname TKO, meaning "The Knock Out." Spikes also boasts a 22-inch neck, which obviously adds to the intimidating swagger that he carries.?

Reggie Torbor: DE, 2000-03

Reggie Torbor was an elite defensive end for the Tigers during his four-year career. Torbor put in the seventh best season for a sack specialist in 2003 totaling 9.5 sacks for the Tigers.

Torbor also sits sixth all-time for sacks in a career with 18.5. Torbor only received second team All-SEC honors his senior season, but finished his Auburn career with much more of an impact than any award could give.

Torbor started 22 career games for the Tigers finishing with 120 total tackles, 32 of which went for loss.

Torbor was drafted in the fourth round of the 2004 NFL draft. He still plays professionally for the Buffalo Bills.?

Dontarrious Thomas: LB, 2000-2003

Dontarrious Thomas was a very formidable defender for the Tigers during the early 2000?s. Thomas was a leading reason for the Tigers to earn the preseason national attention that they gained prior to the 2003 season.

Thomas finished his Auburn career eighth all-time on the Auburn total tackles list. He led the Tigers in tackles during the 2001 season, finishing with 122 total stops.

Thomas was a feared middle defender that kept opposing rushers at bay and helped the Auburn defense retain its tenacious and nasty reputation as a stingy and hard-hitting squad throughout the 2000?s.

Karlos Dansby: LB, 2000-03

Karlos Dansby came to Auburn as a wide receiver from Woodlawn High School in Birmingham. Dansby was one of the first of many defense converts during the Tommy Tuberville era. Dansby also played for current head coach Gene Chizik during his time as the Auburn defensive coordinator from 2002-2004.

Dansby saw his career take many turns starting out as a safety convert that eventually found his way to linebacker.

Dansby led the Tigers in interceptions in 2001 with five, and led the team in tackles in 2003 with 84 showing the progression during his career.

Dansby was the only All-American selection from the 2003 Auburn Tigers team. The 2003 Auburn Tigers team carried a preseason No. 1 ranking into their season opener against USC, only to see the season end with five losses. Dansby was one of the lone bright spots for the Tigers during that year.

Dansby was drafted in the second round by the Arizona Cardinals in the 2004 NFL draft. He currently plays for the Miami Dolphins.?

Carlos Rogers: DB, 2001-04

Carlos Rogers was an instant impact player from day one on the Plains. His freshman season he started 10 games, recording 58 total tackles.

Rogers went on to set the Auburn record for pass deflections with 40. He also compiled 182 total tackles and seven interceptions in his career. Rogers was a consistent performer that even played the majority of his junior season with a casted left hand following an early season thumb break.

Rogers career in orange in blue reached its pinnacle during the 2004 undefeated season. Rogers was a major part of the Tigers success earning the Tigers first and only Jim Thorpe Award at season's end. Rogers was also a consensus All-American in 2004.

Rodgers was drafted in 2005 during the first round by the Washington Redskins. He is still playing in the NFL with the San Francisco 49?ers.?

Quentin Groves: DE, 2004-07

Quentin Groves came to Auburn as a unique pass-rushing defensive end. At Greenville Weston High School in Greenville, MS, Groves played both tight end and defensive end going on to become a Top 100 player, according to Tom Lemming.

Groves came in at a special time for Auburn becoming an instant playmaker for the 2004 undefeated team as a red-shirt freshman. Groves totaled 7.5 sacks that season including a single-game record-tying performance with four sacks against Kentucky.

Groves worked his way into backfields often as a sack specialist throughout his career earning a total of 26 career sacks, placing him tied for first on Auburn?s all-time sack list. Groves was a part of the 50-win 2007 senior class, the class with the most wins in Auburn history.

Groves was drafted in the second round by the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2008 and currently plays for the Oakland Raiders.?

Antonio Coleman: DE, 2006-09

Antonio Coleman burst onto the seen as a sophomore in 2007 tallying 37 tackles and 8.5 sacks. Coleman helped fill in for an injured Quentin Groves and allowed for the Tigers to see virtually no drop-off in his absence.

Coleman ended his Auburn career third on the career sack list with 24.5 total sacks. He is also tied for ninth for most in a season when he totaled nine sacks during the 2009 season.

Coleman was a bright spot for the Tigers defense during the transition years of 2008 and 2009.

Coleman entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2010. He is currently on the Arizona Cardinals roster as a linebacker. ?

Nick Fairley: DL, 2009-10

Nick Fairley transferred from JUCO to Auburn in 2009. Fairley only started two games that season and recorded 28 tackles. It was a far cry from groundbreaking defensive play.

In 2010, the switch was flipped for good, and Fairley stormed onto the scene finishing his senior season with 60 tackles, 24 tackles for loss, 11.5 sacks and an interception. That performance made him the Tigers second Lombardi Award winner, as Tracy Rocker was the first.

History was made that season as Fairley was the first Lombardi winner to be coached by a former winner himself.

Fairley left the Plains a year early and was a part of the 2011 NFL draft where he was a first-round pick by the Detroit Lions.?

ShermansTravel: Visiting The Sets Of This Year's Best Picture Nominees (PHOTOS)

Key Locations Set in Hollywood, California, in 1927, The Artist has been nominated for a whopping 10 Oscars. Not only is the film in black and white (though it was filmed in color), it is also silent, with only a few lines of dialogue in the entire movie. The film follows George Valentin (Jean Dujardin), a silent film star, as he adapts to the ?talkies.? What to See Take your pick! The film features many theaters where the characters screen their own films: See a concert at the Orpheum Theatre, watch a play at the Wilshire Ebell Theater, or explore the ornate Los Angeles Theatre. Only a few steps from the Wilshire Ebell Theater, take a stroll down Fremont Place, where George and Peppy Miller (B?r?nice Bejo) both reside. In Peppy?s case, art imitates life. In the film, she lives at 56 Fremont Place, where silent film star Mary Pickford really did live in 1918. Make it Happen After a day of touring downtown landmarks like the Bradbury Building (304 S. Broadway), where Peppy makes her ascent to stardom as George makes his descent, and Eagle Rock Substation (7888 N. Figueroa St.), where the opening scene is set, stop in at the Italian restaurant Cicada, where Peppy gives a scathing interview about the demise of silent films within earshot of George.

Is Debt Consolidation An Option? | Finance @ Redbright

What is debt consolidation and how does it differ from debt settlement?If you have asked yourself that question, then you may be facing a mountain of debts, credit card bills, or other loans that are making your life very difficult. You should think about paying it all off by taking out a debt consolidation loan.Perhaps you should consider a debt consolidation loan. Debt consolidation means obtaining one loan to pay off several other loans.

Talk to your local financial institution (a bank or credit union, for example) about a debt consolidation loan, and use that loan to pay off your other debts. Make sure that the consolidation loan has a lower interest rate than the credit card loans and other personal loans that you?re paying off. That will help you to reduce your monthly payment.

But you do have alternatives. Apart from a debt consolidation loan, there are important changes you can make to reduce your overall debt.An initial step is to stop incurring credit card debt. Cut up the credit cards; at least put them out of sight.

Getting a debt consolidation loan isn?t a panacea. Often the person who needs the debt consolidation loan is in the worst position to get it. And getting a new loan can be very difficult and expensive. Debt consolidation loans often have ?points,? (a point is one percent of the loan), fees, title insurance, etc. The cost of the loan alone can be prohibitive.An advantage to debt consolidation loans is that you only have one loan payment to make. This will make budgeting much simpler and reduce tension. One of the problems of large debt obligations is managing all the payments that have to be made throughout the month.

A possible advantage to debt consolidation loans is that you can pay the loan over a longer period of time. The advantage is that the lengthy repayment period means that you have a reduced monthly payment. One disadvantage of this is that you end up paying more in total, even though you pay a lower rate.

Where to Install Smoke Detectors | Visit Greenein

One of the few critical home improvement tasks and house issues of safety just as well, is always keeping a perfectly positioned, functioning, and up to date smoke alarm. Smoke alarms are almost always completely dismissed and forgotten about by the occupants of a home which can trigger very dangerous scenarios and sometimes even your loss of life.

There is absolutely no space for questioning the significance of smoke alarms presence at your residence and laws related to their installation; they are there to protect you, your family members, and the property that you are occupying. When you are installing smoke alarms be certain to conform with device manufacturer recommendations, and also the NFPA regulations (National Fire Protection Association),

There are two separate sets of smoke alarm unit installation area requirements for the new and additionally existing building construction and both of those might slightly vary between areas. I highly recommend to go along with a larger requirement as your life could be jeopardized.

Location of smoke detectors ? new house construction requirements:

  1. Smoke alarms have to be hard wired and have a battery back-up running. Hard-wired means that residence electrical panel will provide electric power for the smoke alarms functioning. In the eventuality of an electrical power failure smoke alarms battery back-up will take over. If you happen to start hearing occasional chirping sound (they will increase as the battery pack becomes weakened) it usually implies that the battery pack needs changing ? exchange the battery promptly and at least every year (standard alkaline electric batteries only, certainly no rechargeable)!
  2. All these hardwired smoke alarms will need to be interconnected in a new house construction. This will help to notify house occupants sleeping a greater distance away from the location where open fire / smoke has initiated. All of the interconnected smoke alarms is going to sound at the same time immediately right after one of them registers it.
  3. One smoke alarm is essential on each and every story of the property as well as basement. This requirement would not apply to unliveable crawlspaces and house attics. However, in the event that in the crawlspace and / or attic are any kind of fuel burning (or electric) appliances installed, a smoke alarm needs to be added (might or might not be required in some areas), and installed a minimum of 20 ft from the combustion chamber.
  4. Smoke alarms must be present inside each and every sleeping area, and in the adjacent hallway within fifteen ft from that slipping area. In the event that entrances to the sleeping areas are located in a single passageway as well as max. thirty ft away from each other you may have one smoke alarm positioned in the midst of that passageway.

Nevertheless, when the distance in between the sleeping area entrance doors is more than thirty ft apart, make sure you install additional smoke alarm(s) to maintain that 15 ft requirement. Some areas, among them Chicago, Illinois, do not require smoke alarm installation inside the sleeping quarters.

Now, assuming that you own an existing residence and performing a full gut-rehab which includes the removal of all wall finishes right down to the 2?4 you could be almost definitely required to go along with requirements previously mentioned (make sure you check with your local building division). In cases where the home improvement you are performig does not involve the removing of sheetrock, plaster, as well as any different wall finishing materials, thus exposing wall structure and ceiling framing, you will probably be most likely instructed to adhere to these uncomplicated requirements (distances from the wall surfaces, ceiling, and other home components relate to a new construction as well):

  • There is no hardwiring and interconnecting necessary. But the truth is, for increasing the chances of you living through a fire you could use wirelessly interconnected smoke alarms.
  • A smoke alarm needs to be positioned in such type of area that its siren will be clearly heard in every one of sleeping locations with all bedroom entrance doors shut and over the surrounding background noises levels.
  • Any enclosed stairs need a smoke detector at the top floor ceiling surface.
  • Smoke alarms attached to the ceiling surface area (preferable) must be positioned no nearer than 4 inches out from the sidewall or walls corner
  • Smoke alarms attached to the wall would have to be positioned inside the zone that is four inches to twelve in below the ceiling surface.
  • Smoke alarms on cathedral, sloped, peaked, and gable ceilings have to be installed at / or within 3 ft measuring from the highest possible point (though measured horizontally).
  • Each and every section of an area needs a smoke alarm in the event it has been divided with a partial wall structure that is at least twenty four inches tall and hanging beneath the ceiling surface or maybe coming from the floor.
  • If placing a smoke alarm on a tray shaped ceiling, secure it at its highest part or sloped section within twelve inches vertically down from the highest step.

The Danger of Comparing Your Stepfamily to Another ? Step ...

Do you?find yourself comparing the growth of your stepfamily to your neighbor?s?next door? Do you talk to?your stepmom friend at work and wonder why her stepfamily seems to be having such smooth sailing while your family is stuck in?the muck?

My husband always?calls our family??remedial blenders.??Our relationships didn?t come together?within the first five to seven years of marriage as stepfamily research suggests.?In fact, some of our toughest years as a family were?seven to ten?years after our marriage.

Does that mean we were doing everything?wrong, slowing?the progress of our family blending? Certainly my husband and?I made our share of mistakes as stepparents, but we also had some challenging variables to contend with that influenced the relationships in our family.

One of the biggest?factors that determines how well a family unites?is whether the ex-spouse?allows?his/her children the freedom to embrace a relationship with the stepparent. His/her attitude toward the stepparent can greatly influence the child?s ability to accept and love a new stepparent.

Unfortunately, as a stepparent, you have no control over what happens in the other home that influences the relationships in your home. I remember quite clearly the half-hearted hugs and stand-offish behavior?I received every time?my stepchildren returned from their mother?s home. I always wondered what kind of conversation went on about me while they were gone. I?m sure it was best I didn?t know.

Because my stepdaughter was ten when we married, her age also influenced our ability to bond. I didn?t understand when she began pulling away from the family as she progressed through adolescence but it was part of?her growing-up process, a time of buiding her?own identity separate from the family, that naturally takes place during the teen-age years.

Stepfamily research also suggests that the hardest relationship to develop?is the stepmom/stepdaughter one. Instead of blaming myself for our prickly interactions, I would have done better to accept?the fact?that some of?our challenges were simply intertwined in our tendency?as two females in the same household to butt heads. When my oldest biological daughter traversed through the teen years, we encountered some of the same tensions.

It was also normal for my stepdaughter?to desire a stronger relationship with her biological mother, leaving me in an indispensable role.?Because of her natural bond with her mother, she couldn?t naturally bond with me.

After my husband and I were married eight years, we learned my stepchildren?s mother had colon cancer. My stepchildren?stood by helplessly the?next year, watching their mother?slowly?digress, then pass away. The pain of her loss left?raw emotions?they didn?t know what to do with,?negatively?impacting?our stepfamily relationships.

So I no longer carry the?responsibility for the remedial blending that?occurred in our?family. We could have never predicted nor controlled the circumstances that occurred. But we could control our reaction to them and our commitment to press forward,?despite the odds.

What about your family? Were you hoping for smooth sailing as your relationships came together??Do you wonder why your family doesn?t look like the stepfamily next door that seems to be having an easier time? Don?t compare. It?s dangerous.

Those who have the easiest time as a stepfamily?never appreciate the value of their relationships because they didn?t have to work for them.

If your family takes longer than you desire to unite, don?t despair. Celebrate the victories along the way. Affirm the value of what you?re creating. And be thankful for the challenges. Because you?ll always?know it would have been easier to quit.

But you didn?t.

Can you?recognize the uniqueness in your ?circumstances that influence your?relationships??Will you share how you cope with it?

Macdonald Hotels & Resorts signs management ... - Travel news

Sandtrend Ltd retain the management of the pro shop, golf and estate pursuits

Macdonald Hotels & Resorts signs management agreement with Donnington Grove Country Club

Tuesday, February 21, 2012

Macdonald Hotels & Resorts, the UK's largest privately owned hotel operator with over forty 4 and 5 star hotels throughout the UK and Spain, has further increased its market presence by signing a management contract with the owner of Donnington Grove Country Club in Newbury, Berkshire.

The agreement gives Macdonald Hotels & Resorts management control of the prestigious 18th century, 32 bedroom hotel, renowned for the quality of its conference, championship golf, fishing and clay pigeon facilities.

The owners, Sandtrend Ltd, retain the management of the pro shop, golf and estate pursuits.

Offering guests spectacular views from the hotel, the River Lambourn runs through 550 acres of the picturesque estate comprised of woodland and mature parkland. The current staff will be retained in the deal that means Macdonald Hotels & Resorts now manage the country club hotel on behalf of the current owners.

The terms of the agreement will also see the Donnington Grove Country Club retain its own brand identity while Macdonald Hotels & Resorts will steadily implement its hotel-wide operational practices, controls and quality standards.

Referring to the arrangement, Chris Gillett, Managing Director, Macdonald Hotels Management Services Ltd, commented: "Macdonald Hotels & Resorts is very pleased to have agreed a management contract with this wonderful Hotel & Country Club.

"This agreement will further strengthen our portfolio along the M4 corridor and appeal to our discerning business, leisure and conference guests who seek the reassurance and quality of product and service offered by Macdonald Hotels & Resorts.

"Nigel Green, the general manager of the Donnington Grove Country Club and a former employee of Macdonald Hotels is familiar with our high professional standards. As a company we now look forward to supporting Nigel and his staff in further developing the potential of this beautifully appointed country house hotel."?

The Gothic styled house dates back to 1763.? Overlooked by Donnington Castle, the original mansion house was built by James Pettit - Andrews. Following its sale to William Brummell in 1783, the house was transformed into a country estate.

The property was requisitioned in 1940 for Allied Supplies Ltd. In the 1990's, Dave Thomas, one of Britain's foremost golf architects was tasked with creating a golf course in keeping with the listed landscape gardens. The construction of the course started in November 1991 and on the 12 June 1993 the Donnington Grove Country Club opened. Sandtrend Ltd purchased the estate in 2004.

Business Accounting ? Types And Benefits | Fantasy Works

It is very important to have separate account for business and personal needs. In case if you run a small business all by yourself you should maintain separate accounting system for dealing with your business needs and personal things. Proprietors of small business always run out of time and they don?t have time to sort out things leisurely. It is easy for you if you have two bank accounts separately as business accounting and personal accounts. By maintaining two accounts you can easily manage finances and keep records of the business. It is possible to monitor the funds by going through the statement which clearly tells you how many checks were issued this week and what are the amounts credited. You can view almost each transaction of finance in your bank account. It also helps you to plan your budget and allot funds for future investment.

Business checking account is one in which all the transaction of checks are made. You issue checks to various agents and third parties and suppliers for smooth running of your business. You have to issue checks from the business checking account towards payment of raw material and goods necessary for running your business. It is possible to withdraw cash at any ATM service point and you can also deposit funds at any branches now.

Now banking is made easier by electronic money transfer and safe internet banking. Moreover, you can make various financial transactions using your checking account. Some banks do not impose restriction on the number of checks to be issued each month while some other banks fix a limit for issuing checks. Again there are differences between banks which ask you to maintain minimum account balance. You need to have a proof of your business and personal identification for opening a checking account.
The savings account of your business is the place where all the funds are deposited. Your business will gain constant rate of interest deepening on the amount deposited in the account. Usually savings accounts are not connected with debit cards and also check books. You can either take the money through ATM credit card or visit the nearest branch personally for making transaction.

You can comfortably deposit all the profits the business makes in the savings account. All the affairs of the company and payment for employees are done only by checking account. In some companies employees use the credit card for proceeding on official tours. Business accounting is very much essential for managing the financial transaction of the company effectively.

Why did MSNBC drop Pat Buchanan?

Pat Buchanan, a conservative commentator on MSNBC, was suspended after the publication of his book. Critics of Pat Buchanan's book, "Suicide of a Superpower" called it racist, anti-Semitic, and homophobic.

MSNBC dropped conservative commentator Pat Buchanan on Thursday, four months after suspending him following the publication of his latest book.

Skip to next paragraph

The book "Suicide of a Superpower" contained chapters titled "The End of White America" and "The Death of Christian America." Critics called the book racist, anti-Semitic and homophobic, charges Buchanan denied.

MSNBC President Phil Griffin said last month that he didn't think Buchanan's book "should be part of the national dialogue, much less part of the dialogue on MSNBC."

The network said on Thursday that "after 10 years, we have decided to part ways with Pat Buchanan. We wish him well."

RECOMMENDED: GOP candidates views on immigration, abortion and other social issues

Buchanan, in a column posted on Thursday, called the decision "an undeniable victory for the blacklisters."

The former GOP candidate had seemed increasingly out of place on MSNBC as it emphasized liberal commentary in recent years. But he kept a regular presence, even forging an unlikely chemistry with talk show host Rachel Maddow despite disagreeing on most issues.

Buchanan wrote that advocacy groups like Color of Change and the Anti-Defamation League brand people as racists or anti-Semites if they dare "to venture outside the narrow corral in which they seek to confine debate." They seek to silence and censor dissent while proclaiming devotion to the First Amendment, he said.

"I know these blacklisters," he wrote. "They operate behind closed doors, with phone calls, mailed threats and off-the-record meetings. They work in the dark because, as Al Smith said, nothing un-American can live in the sunlight."

The liberal media watchdog Media Matters for America said that MSNBC made the right decision in letting Buchanan go.

The book "was not his first, nor his worst offense," said Ari Rabin-Havt, executive vice president of Media Matters. "He's been making the same racially insensitive, anti-Semitic and homophobic statements for the past 50 years."

RECOMMENDED: GOP candidates views on immigration, abortion and other social issues
