Mexico vs Ecuador Competition: Copa America - 2015 in Chile, Group A Match date: 19 June 2015 Kick Off Time: 22:00 BST Venue: Estadio El Teniente (Rancagua, Chile, Republic of)  Mexico team have stuck up two draws so far in the group, a goalless draw against Bolivia and a 3-3 against Chile. The Mexicans have now won just one of their last six games played, which was a 3-0 win over Guatemala. In their eight previous Copa America campaigns, the Mexicans have only failed to advance beyond the group stages once. It’s likely that a draw here would be enough for Mexico to go through as one of the two best third placed finishers. Mexico are expected to be without Marquez for this match. Adrian Aldrete has joined the former Barcelona's dfender on the sidelines. Matias Vuoso scored twice in the thrilling draw with Chile last time out and he is expected to partner Raul Jimenez up front. Ecuador have been playing below expectations at the tournament in Chile.

The economics problem: needs and wants. Basically, all humans have needs and wants . Needs are things we can't live without, while wants are simply our desires that we can live without. We all have unlimited wants , which is true, since all of us want a new PC, a car, new graphics card, etc. that we actually do not need to live. Businesses produce goods and services to satisfy needs and wants. Although we have unlimited wants, there are not enough resources for everyone. Resources can be split into 4 factors of production , which are: - Land : All natural resources used to make a product or service. - Labour : The effort of workers required to make a product or service. - Capital : Finance, machinery and equipment required to make a product or service. - Enterprise : Skill and risk-taking ability of the entrepreneur . Entrepreneurs are people who combine these factors of production to make a product. With these discussed, lets move on to the economi...

'Clarity of Vision' even when our lives and the world around us appear to be very busy and the cause of our distractions, we can still have a clear view... Lately I've gained much inspiration from "Random Encounters" This image was part of a series from the Shapeshifter promo shoot last spring for the Subsonic Festival more on that  http://www.orlandosydney.com/the-o-blog/28122014/shapeshifters-tribe-creative-body-painting. I had a second opportunity to photograph these incredible artists at the Subsonic Festival 2014 not only behind the scenes as they prepared the models but also for the parade late (read very dim light) on the Friday of the Festival. Applied by spray, brush, sponge and any manner of being creative with bodies and paint the ShapeShifters Tribe produce some top class work with models that really understand the importance of owning and working these eye catching designs. Even with the occasional rain shower this parade could not be m...

When Google Earth was first introduced 10 years ago, it immediately stole my heart. Beyond the freedom to fly anywhere in the world, I was captivated by the ability to paint and visualize geographic data on this incredible global canvas. Drawn to datasets backed by real human stories , I started making my own maps with KML a few weeks after Earth’s release in 2005. For my master’s degree, I used Google Earth to build a virtual representation of a high-tech biological research reserve . Vint Cerf saw my work, which eventually led to a job on the Google Earth Outreach team, turning my passion for telling stories with maps into a career. 2005 was the beginning of Google Earth’s evolution, as well. In August of that year, Hurricane Katrina showed us how useful mapping tools like Earth could be for crisis response efforts . Rescue workers compared before and after Satellite imagery in Google Earth to better locate where people were stranded. And in the years after, with more than 2 ...

From eagerly-awaited U.S. Supreme Court rulings, to the ongoing debate over the Confederate flag, here’s a look at some of the topics that got people searching this week. #LoveWins Whether the query was “ marriage equality ,” “ fourteenth amendment ,” or “love wins,” searches related to today’s U.S. Supreme Court ruling that same-sex couples nationwide have a right to marry are spiking , with more than 2 million searches for the term “gay marriage” alone. Interest goes beyond the U.S., with “What countries allow same-sex marriage?” and “where is gay marriage legal?” among the top questions. While today’s “ thunderbolt ” ruling is capturing most of the attention around SCOTUS, searches for the court have in fact been big all week. Yesterday, news that the Court had upheld a key portion of the Affordable Care Act was met with a 200,000+ search spike, and renewed questions like “How does Obamacare work?” and “Why do Republicans dislike Obamacare?” Confederate flag We noted last week that...

Every time you check your Gmail, search on Google for a nearby restaurant, or watch a YouTube video, a server whirs to life in one of our data centers. Data centers are the engines of the Internet, bringing the power of the web to millions of people around the world. And as millions more people come online, our data centers are growing, too. We’ve recently expanded our data centers in Iowa , Georgia , Singapore and Belgium . And today we’re announcing a new data center in Alabama—our 14th site globally. This time, we’re doing something we’ve never done before: we’ll be building on the grounds of the Widows Creek coal power plant in Jackson County, which has been scheduled for shutdown. Data centers need a lot of infrastructure to run 24/7, and there’s a lot of potential in redeveloping large industrial sites like former coal power plants. Decades of investment shouldn’t go to waste just because a site has closed; we can repurpose existing electric and other infrastructure to make su...

To bring you this new imagery, we partnered with legendary climbers Lynn Hill, Alex Honnold and Tommy Caldwell. Read more about the project from Tommy Caldwell, who completed the world’s hardest climb in Yosemite in January of 2015. -Ed. “That is awesome. I definitely have to be a part of that.” Maybe it was the sheer exhaustion from being in the middle of a 19-day climb of the Dawn Wall , but when the guys at Google Maps and Yosemite National Park asked if I wanted to help them with their first-ever vertical Street View collection of El Capitan in Yosemite , I didn’t hesitate. Yosemite has been such an important part of my life that telling the story of El Capitan through Street View was right up my alley—especially when it meant working with the Google engineers to figure out some absurd challenges. Climbi...

What if low-income kids had the same opportunity for jobs in the tech sector as students from the best computer science departments? What could that mean for their futures, or the future of their communities? That’s the question asked by Oakland-based Hack the Hood, whose mission is to inspire Bay Area kids to pursue careers in technology. Hack the Hood trains young people by hiring them to build websites for small businesses in their communities. After applying for the Google Impact Challenge last spring, Hack the Hood went to work with $500,000 in Google.org funding and nearly 100 Googler volunteers. In the past year they’ve expanded their programs in SF, Oakland and Richmond to reach six times as many young people. Last year we awarded $5 million to help “hometown hero” organizations like Hack the Hood make a greater impact. Today we’re announcing the 2015 Challenge , and issuing an open call for nonprofits who are asking big “what ifs” about how they can improve their communities a...

It’s hard to think of a more important source of information in the world than quality journalism. At its best, news communicates truth to power, keeps societies free and open, and leads to more informed decision-making by people and leaders. In the past decade, better technology and an open Internet have led to a revolution in how news is created, distributed, and consumed. And given Google’s mission to ensure quality information is accessible and useful everywhere, we want to help ensure that innovation in news leads to a more informed, more democratic world. That’s why we’ve created the News Lab , a new effort at Google to empower innovation at the intersection of technology and media. Our mission is to collaborate with journalists and entrepreneurs to help build the future of media. And we’re tackling this in three ways: though ensuring our tools are made available to journalists around the world (and that newsrooms know how to use them); by getting helpful Google data sets in the...

Felipe Gutierrez looks set to replace injured Marcelo Diaz in the starting line-up. Up-front, coach Sampaoli will continue with the dynamic duo Vargas-Sanchez. Mexico team played out an uninspiring 0-0 draw with Bolivia on Friday as a yung and unexperienced squad has been take to the Copa America by manager Miguel Herrera, with next month'...
