Why doesn't the Earth's elliptical orbit affect its temperature (Cause Seasons)? | There are a few reasons: First, 5 million km seems like a lot, but it's not that much compared to the average orbital radius of about 150 million km. Second, the effect of the planet's tilt isn't related to one side being further away as much as it is one side being at more of an angle with respect to the sun: Days are shorter on the hemisphere that's further from the sun, so the sun is heating that hemisphere for less time every day. Sunlight is also hitting the surface at a more oblique angle, so it is less intense. At middle latitudes, the sun is adding about twice as much energy per square meter per second in the summer than in the winter, and the sun is shining for longer. |

So, whatever 'they' get for consolidating comes directly from the federal government. Although, I'm not sure what they acutally do get in return.

So, if the rate goes up to 10% your SOL.\n\nTake the opportunity now...\n\nWith the way this president runs the country...he'll probably have student loans at 20% in the next 5 years. |
YSL make-up artist will film makeovers on Google Glass in-store .
They send the full tutorial to customer's email within 20 minutes .
Glasses have been trialled backstage at fashion week already . | In an age where looking picture-perfect in an Instagram selfie is all the rage (thanks, Kim Kardashian), it comes as no surprise that women are brushing up on their beauty techniques. However, rather than devouring beauty manuals or picking up tips from their mothers, two fifths of British women are now watching their way to better beauty skills. A recent survey revealed that 41 per cent of women view beauty videos on YouTube or dedicated blogs - an industry that's garnered 700m hits a month worldwide, according to Pixability. Scroll down for videos . YSL make-up artists will treat customers to a 45-minute makeover while wearing the Google Glasses and filming their every brush stroke so that customers can replay the close-up tutorial at home . But with a new year comes new trends and beauty bloggers like Zoella and Lisa Eldridge may find their viewing figures dwindling. Taking heed of the popularity of online make-up and skincare tutorials, French style giant YSL is helping beauty buffs create their own personal tutorials with the help of Google Glass. Make-up artists in store across the UK will treat customers to a 45-minute makeover while wearing the Google Glasses and filming their every brush stroke. The make-up artist will take before and after pictures on the glasses and wear them throughout the entire make-up application to capture the techniques and products used. The resulting video will be seen through the eyes of the professional and is designed to help customers recreate the look when they return home. The bespoke tutorial, which costs £30 and is redeemable against product purchase, is emailed to you within 20 minutes of being filmed, along with before and after shots. The make-up artist takes a 'before' and 'after' picture on the glasses and they are worn throughout the entire make-up application to capture the techniques and products used for a film emailed directly to the customer . The concept has just launched in Selfridges, London, and will be being rolled out nationwide in 2015. This isn't the first time that the smart specs have been used in the beauty realm. In February this year, Max Factor's lead make-up artist, Mel Arter, created a raw nude look for the Emilia Wickstead show using the computerised eyewhere. Mel told MailOnline at the time: 'Being backstage is an exciting time for a make-up artist. It’s a prime opportunity to get really creative and use the latest products for the first time. Popular: Zoella, who regularly posts beauty tutorials, gets millions of hits from women looking for tips . 41 per cent of women watch beauty video tutorials by vloggers such as Lily Pebbles and Vivianna Makeup . 'By using Google Glass this season, you’ll be able to see exactly how I’m creating the look; a make-up artist view on camera that has not been seen before. 'Women can then follow this process and create all or parts of the look themselves at home. 'I think we are going to be seeing them a lot more in the world of make-up artistry. I am chuffed to be pioneering it.' Pioneering: In February this year, Max Factor's lead make-up artist, Mel Arter, bottom right, created a raw nude look for the Emilia Wickstead show and filmed the entire thing by wearing Google Glass throughout . |

The cast of which Sylvester Stallone and Michael Caine film also included footballers Bobby Moore, John Wark and Ossie Ardilles? | Classic Film: Escape to Victory Classic Film: Escape to Victory Monday 9th June 2014 Let’s not beat about the bush. The football scenes were rubbish. Tough tackle – the match reaches fever pitch for Pelé, Sly Stallone (in blue) and Michael Caine And in a football movie, that ain’t good. But somehow, that didn’t matter. After all, any movie that features Michael Caine, Bobby Moore and Pelé wins extra points for cool. And the 1981 movie Escape To Victory featured that unique hat-trick of talents. But those bloomin' football scenes. . . When Pelé was dribbling in front of the Nazis, one hand clutched to his chest to protect an injury, you had to wonder why on earth the opposing defender didn’t just floor him, Norman Hunter-style. See also: Classic Film: Ben Hur After all, the ref was on their side: Pelé didn’t stand a chance. You could almost imagine the German commandants screaming: “Ihn aus.” That’s ‘take him out’, for those of you without GCSE German. Time seemed to stand still as the Allies made their second half comeback against Germany, in Nazi-occupied Paris. And Pelé’s artful dribble ended, inevitably, with a wunder-goal; a delightfully balletic overhead kick that smashed straight into the back of the net. Escape To Victory featured a mix of actors and footballers. The premise was simple: Allied prisoners of war were to play a football match against the Germans. And no, it didn’t go to penalties. And no, the Germans didn’t win. The Germans did actually secure a late penalty – and missed it. The screenwriters were clearly no students of The Beautiful Game. Since you ask, the Allies staged a remarkable comeback of Liverpool v/s AC Milan proportions. They overcame a 4-1 half time deficit to win 5-4. The movie featured Michael as Captain John Colby and Sly as Captain Robert Hatch, while the pro footballers included World Cup winners Bobby Moore, Ossie Ardiles and, of course, Pelé. The supporting cast wasn’t all bad: John Wark, Russell Osman, Kevin O’Callaghan and Mike Summerbee were among the players. Ipswich Town players were featured elsewhere; Kevin Beattie standing in for Michael and Paul Cooper for Sly. Michael was the Allied team’s coach. He played an upstanding, principled Brit who refused to pull a fast one over the Germans, when the opportunity presented itself. The film didn’t measure up against other movies of the genre. Sly and Michael were decent, but they were no match for Steve McQueen’s role in the 1963 epic The Great Escape. See also: Classic Film: Cool Runnings The Germans were typecast as evil, low-rent deviants; a team of Razor Ruddock-meets-Julian Dicks hard-knocks who probably had former Millwall defender Kevin Muscat tucked away on the bench; as well as Nigel De Jong and the Italian duo of Marco Materazzi and Gennaro Gattuso. In the final analysis, the movie was hokey and implausible. A stereotyped and clichéd film; the outcome was obvious from the moment it kicked off. But it remains a British favourite. The patriotic fervour and celebrity cameos from Moore, Pelé and others have earned it enduring popularity. It’s a film that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Michael took a moral stance against the Allies’ secret plans to escape, though they tried it anyway. As the film ends, thousands of football fans invade the pitch, running towards armed Nazi guards before storming the gates and attempting to make a run for it. And what did the gun-toting war-mongering Nazi gate-keepers do? Pull the trigger and let them have it? Pump them full of lead? Well, possibly not quite what you’d expect. Did the guards just stand to one side and let them through, like stewards at a Race For Life? Or did they fight until the end to keep them prisoners? Watch and see. . . None. CLASSIC SCENE: When Captain Robert Hatch (Sylvester Stallone) saves the penalty and there is pitch invasion by the French crowd who attacks the Germans. CLASSIC QUOTE: Just before the football match when Hatch (Sylvester Stallone) says: “Where do I stand for a corner kick?” Captain John Colby (Michael Caine) replies: “At the far |
