DenmarkxReader: All Gone Wrong Today was the perfect day. The sun was shining, the birds were chirping, it was actually warm out and your Danish friend and crush was on his way to the park fountain to meet you.
Currently, you were sitting on the cool marble with your fingers in the cold water, waiting patiently. Today you were going to muster up the courage to tell him how you truly felt.
"Hey ________!" Standing up, you were able to see the Dane shoving through the crowd to get to you, a smile on his face per usual. You opened your arms, allowing him to hug you tightly.
You let out a low laugh, all the air already knocked from your lungs. "I-It's nice to see you too Mathias..." He released his hold on you, bringing you to your feet,"You seem really happy today."
"Of course I am!" He stated enthusiastically, taking your hand and spinning you as if dancing. "I get to hang out with you all day! We haven't had time to chill in awhile, huh?"

Being one of the few sane people, you walked out of your last class, bidding your teacher a wonderful Summer. The second your Mary Janes set food outside the door, you were tackled by a pesky American.
Alfred F. Jones, the most popular guy in school had knocked you off balance and pinned you to the floor. His eyes were glistening of excitement and his framed glasses were now crooked on his face.
Around you, you noticed people looking towards you as if you two were insane while others looked upon with jealous eyes,"A-Al...w-what the heck do you want...?"
"I'm havin' a party tonight at my house!" He exclaimed,"Everybody who's anybody'll be there! Bring a bathing suit and overnight bag!"

You put the phone down with a shaky hand, tears pricking in the corners of your (e/c) eyes. Your lips pressed together in a firm line as you tried to keep the salty water from spilling down your flushed cheeks. The guy who had stuck with you since 3rd grade; Mathias Kohler, was leaving. Falling backwards, you landed roughly on your bed and let out a single wail.
No longer able to hide the tears, you clutched your phone to your chest and sobbed. He was really leaving. You had know it was going to happen for nearly four years now, you had just prayed you'd be able to tell him how you felt before he left.
But you had always ducked out. You'd had plenty of opportunities to tell the Dane that you'd loved him after you'd discovered your feelings for him but you just couldn't do it. You couldn't look into his gorgeous blue eyes with your own (e/c) ones and tell him your wanted to be more than friends.

You were working at the café that had recently employed you. You enjoyed doing it because you liked talking to people, interacting in general. Also being the only girl bartender you got a lot of attention. From drunks mostly, lots of young men flirting blatantly with you.
In fact one very pushy blond one was at this very moment, also he sounded French. You were getting progressively more flustered as you were trying to kindly refuse him as well as serving the rest of your clients.
"Alright already! She said no, so can you please stop distracting our employee from her job!" A loud voice told the man, who sulked, but pushed away from the bar to get back to his two friends who were laughing like maniacs at him.

Fear creeps throughout your body, and you shoot up, realizing that the "white sky" is the ceiling and the bright sun is only coming in through the windows thrown wide-open. And the aroma of apple Danish is coming from the kitchen but it isn't your kitchen. You're not even in your own room, your own house.
And your head hurts. You've only once ever experienced this crappy feeling, and with the lack of memories of last night, your assumptions are confirmed: this must be a hangover.
As you take in the room, you instantly know where you are when you peer around the messy room, and then you throw the covers off your body to make sure you are still fully-clothed.
You're not. You're wearing your panties and bra, but you're also wearing a large, oversized T-shirt, and

Oh, yes, now you remember. It's your beloved boyfriend's birthday.

Okay, so you were really happy for your boyfriend, who was three years older than you now, but sitting in a stuffy, reeking pub isn't one of your hobbies.
-Well, hello there, beauty~ What brings you here~? A drunk old man slurred, putting his arm over your shoulder. You shrugged his arm off with a disgusted face.
-I'm nothing for you, find yourself a better catch. You puffed out your cheeks in annoyance. He laughed loudly, catching everyone's attention.

"Cool, isn't it," Mathias asked, slinging a muscular arm over your shoulder, "it took me two weeks and a hell of a lot of legos."
As you gazed in wonder at the lego fortress towering over you, something that no one would ever dare to say to Mathias slipped out from your mouth, "You're a genius."
Somewhere, Norway is facepalming, and he doesn't know why.
"I know," he smiled cockily, grabbing your hand and pulling you inside his castle made of legos, "(name), do you know why I made this?"
You shook you head, thinking of how that question is totally stupid and unnecessary seeing as how obvious it is that you have no idea why he did it, "No clue."

Ransom rumours after French Syrian hostages go free
John Lichfield
John Lichfield has been The Independent's man in Paris since 1997, covering French news. Before that, he was the paper's Foreign Editor and he has also worked in Brussels and Washington.
Sunday 20 April 2014
Four French journalists held hostage by Islamist militants in Syria for 10 months were tearfully reunited with their families at a military airport near Paris today.
The four, seized last June while covering the Syrian civil-war, were dumped at the Turkish border on Saturday after lengthy negotiations by the French intelligence service.
French officials denied that any ransom had been paid but admitted that other, unspecified "conditions" had been met. The French media said that there was little doubt that money had exchanged hands, despite repeated statements by President Fran çois Hollande that Paris no longer paid ransoms for citizens held abroad.
Welcoming the four journalists in person at the Villacoublay air force base just south of Paris today, Mr Hollande said: "France is proud to have such valuable citizens who serve press freedom and France is proud to have obtained their freedom."
Didier Fran çois, 53, a celebrated globe-trotting radio reporter, had earlier told his employer, Europe 1, that the quartet had spent six weeks chained together and ten months held in windowless basements.
"It is a great joy to be free, to see the sky, to be able to walk," he said on arrival at Villacoublay. He went on to pay tribute to the "mobilisation and generosity of the French for for their journalists, for all citizens (held) abroad".
"We are really lucky to be French," he said.
Nicolas H énin, 37, a reporter for Arte the Franco-German TV channel, tearfully held his two small children.
"What's the best thing for a father?" he said. "To have your two kids in your arms."
The two other released journalists were Pierret Torres, 29, who was also working for Arte, and Edouard Elias, 22, a photographer who was working for the website of Europe 1.
All had been held since last June said by a rebel group linked to Al-Qaida called the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).
This group has increasingly been fighting against other more secular rebel movements rather than the regime of Bachar al-Assad, French officials said. It has been losing ground and is now mostly confined to eastern Syria.
The French external intelligence sevice, the DGSE, has been in contact with the rebels since the journalists were seized, French media said. It became clear that the rebels were ready to make a deal after Spanish journalists and aid workers were released last month.
The French defence minister, Jean-Yves Le Dian, made a secret trip to Ankara to enlist the help of the Turkish authorities. St éphan Le Fole, the government spokesman, said no money had exchanged hands.
The newspaper Le Parisien reported today however: "According to our information, the DGSE negotiated directly with the rebel group…T here can be little doubt that some payment was made."
Previous French governments are known to have paid directly or indirectly for hostages, provoking criticism by the United States. President Hollande has repeatedly said that such payment would no longer be made.

Hi: 8° Lo:1°
By Matthew Bates Wednesday 12 December 2012 Updated: 13/12 12:12
TWELVE primary schools will be extended as part of a £30million bid to resolve shortage of places.
The city council had looked to develop 20 by September 2014, but it revealed on Wednesday that had been cut.
One of the schools - Wyken Croft - set to be rebuilt under a government scheme will have four class groups in each year.
The other 11 are Aldermoor Farm, Broad Heath, Clifford Bridge, Corpus Christi, Coundon, Frederick Bird, Hollyfast, Little Heath, Moat House, Parkhill and Whitley Abbey.
Councillors approved the publication of statutory notices to expand 12 of the schools at a meeting on Tuesday (December 11).
They said the move was in response to a rising birth rate in the city, with increased migration rates also playing a part. To meet rising pressure 615 new places across 28 schools have already been created in the last four years.
The eight left out of the expansion plan is Ernesford Grange, Keresley Grange, Mount Nod, Pearl Hyde, Potters Green, Sowe Valley, St Christopher's and Walsgrave.
Coun David Kershaw, cabinet member for education, said the proposals were the best way to meet future demand.
"The evidence we have indicates there will be a continued pressure for places on primary schools in terms of the numbers children seeking places in reception classes over the next few years.
"We must take heed of that forecast and act now by working to ensure we have sufficient places of high quality in the reception year of our schools in the future."

Zoe and Vanessa's Red Carpet Blackout
by Justin Fenner 4 Reactions 54 Shares Print
It's a challenge making black look not-so-basic, but Vanessa Hudgens and Zoe Saldana both passed that test on Thursday night at the annal amfAR Inspiration Gala in Hollywood.
Saldana chose a black dress with a ruffled peplum and a plunging neckline from Marni's Spring 2014 collection. Hudgens showed her fair share of skin, too, wearing a long-sleeved crop top sweater and floor-length skirt. Tell us whose look inspired you to break out of the boring black mold.

Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone expects his side's UEFA Champions League tie against Milan to be an open one.
While the La Liga outfit have been largely impressive this season, Milan are languishing in ninth in the Serie A.
Ahead of his side's trip to the San Siro on Wednesday, Simeone said he expected to see plenty of goals as the teams target a quarter-final spot.
"I don't think this game will be an easy one," the Argentine said.
"I imagine a game with chances for both sides, an open one, according to what I've seen from them and also to how we normally perform.
"I'm very bad at predicting scores, I prefer to leave it aside, but undoubtedly this first leg of the tie will be key ahead of the second.
"The one getting the advantage tomorrow will be in a good position to reach the quarter-finals."
Milan are rebuilding under Clarence Seedorf and are capable of anything with Italy international Mario Balotelli up front.
Atletico have plenty of attacking talent of their own with Diego Costa and David Villa, and their form this season – which sees them sitting third in the league and equal on points with Barcelona and Real Madrid – has them favourites.
That matters little to Simeone.
"I'm not concerned about who's the favourite in this tie because we don't believe in that," Simeone said.
"Favouritism has to be shown on the pitch. We need to perform well, trying to play the whole tie focused.
"Italian sides live from impulses because they have players to do so. So our chances in this tie will be up to our concentration, determination and intensity."

Tale Of The Tape: Chicago Bears At Detroit Lions
The Bears have a very tough assignment here, as they must take on the defensively stout Lions on their own turf on Thanksgiving Day.
Tale Of The Tape: Tampa Bay Buccaneers At Chicago Bears
Josh McCown gets an opportunity to compete against the team he excelled for last year and helped him get a huge contract. McCown filled in for Jay Cutler last season and kept the Bears on track during his absence.
Tale Of The Tape: Minnesota Vikings At Chicago Bears
The Vikings don't look very impressive from an offensive point of view at this point in the season, but there is some progress being made with rookie Teddy Bridgewater at quarterback.
Tale Of The Tape: Chicago Bears At Green Bay Packers
As the Bears return from their bye week, they are in the midst of a crisis. Serious doubts have surfaced about head coach Marc Trestman and Jay Cutler, and unless the team turns around their season with an eye-opening second half, the pressure will intensify.
Tale Of The Tape: Chicago Bears At New England Patriots
The Bears are asking Jay Cutler (and have paid him) to perform like he is one of the elite quarterbacks in the NFL. When it comes to arm strength and a quick release, Cutler is certainly capable of making impressive throws.
Tale Of The Tape: Miami Dolphins At Chicago Bears
Head coach Joe Philbin has not been happy with Ryan Tannehill's play at the quarterback position, and there are no assurances he will remain the starter for much longer.

Wildmind Meditation News
Jun 03, 2010
Meditation may improve drinking and substance abuse behaviors in active military personnel
Meditation may help improve drinking and substance abuse behaviors in active duty service personnel undergoing treatment in a residential program, according to results from a small study reported at the American Psychiatric Association (APA) 2010 Annual Meeting.
"Using mindfulness-based, breath-centered meditation may be a helpful treatment modality for service members who wish to recover from substance dependence or abuse," said lead investigator Amy Canuso, DO, from the Department of Psychiatry at the Naval Medical Center in San Diego, California, during her presentation.
"I would tell clinicians that this is an option that should be explored," Dr. Canuso told Medscape Psychiatry. "I would consider including it in therapeutic programs at facilities and …

Diagnosis Murder Heads To Encore Suspense; Smallville Moved To Early Mornings On TNT
The good doctor is back! The Dick Van Dyke '90s drama Diagnosis Murder, where he played Dr. Sloan, has now started airing on Encore Suspense. The series started airing weeknights at 10pm as of yesterday. It is airing back-to-back with The Alfred Hitchcock Hour, which airs at 11pm. This is now the second Encore network airing TV series. The first of course is Encore Westerns which airs Marshall Dillon, Gunsmoke, Rawhide, Have Gun Will Travel, Wagon Train, Laredo, and Lawman -- all weekdays from 2-8pm. Encore Westerns also airs Dead Man's Gun on weekends.
As for Diagnosis Murder, the series also stars Barry Van Dyke and Scott Baio. It was last seen on cable on The Hallmark Channel and previously also aired on PAX (and then on the later renamed ION Television). Hallmark Movie Channel recently aired the two-hour movies and two-part episodes, alongside Matlock and Murder, She Wrote, both of which still air on the network. Diagnosis Murder started on Encore Suspense with a New Year's Day marathon on Jan. 1.
After just three months, TNT has moved Smallville from weekdays at 12 noon to weekdays at 5am. This change started yesterday. The series began its run on TNT in October but it doesn't look like the ratings were that great. TNT will move up the two-hour block of Las Vegas to now 12-2pm instead of 1-3pm. TNT will now add a five-days-a-week slot for original series Leverage at 2pm leading into original series reruns of The Closer at 3pm. Supernatural will remain at 10am and 11am and the series will get a President's Day marathon on Monday, Feb. 20, 2012 from 9am-7pm.
As for Smallville, there is no word on if and when it will get another time period, but as for now at least it is airing. 5am is better than no airing at all. Smallville replaces a Law & Order airing, but that remains airing in the overnight at 3am and 4am (in addition to its 4pm-7pm block). Smallville had previously been in syndication on ABC Family from 2004-07.

News : 'Facilities in Karnataka will produce more national players'
Players/Officials: Javagal Srinath | Rahul Dravid
Teams: India
Javagal Srinath, former India fast bowler, believes young cricketers should play for the love of the game, and not focus as much on getting selected in various age-group teams. Srinath was speaking, along with former India captain Rahul Dravid, at a discussion on club cricket as part of the Karnataka State Cricket Association's (KSCA) platinum jubilee celebrations.
Srinath, currently the KSCA secretary, spoke fondly of his time in club cricket, playing for Sunny Side Club in Mysore. "If I missed one session of practice, I was very hard on myself. I resolved to stick to the club. The loyalty factor was very high, and with that loyalty I gave a lot. I cherished every second and gained a lot in terms of dedication and commitment."
His resolve, however, was shaken when he couldn't crack the Karnataka Under-15 squad. "I remember coming here to Bangalore in 1985 or so for an U-15 trial and not being picked in the side. I went back to Mysore and refused to bat or bowl. My coach told me not to come back for training again: 'You are here to play this game and develop a sporting habit. That is more important to me.' This changed my mindset towards selection and put less pressure on me to perform."
Srinath's notion proved a recurring theme throughout the talk as Dravid weighed in. "What are the aspirations of the player?" Dravid said. "Is it only to get selected into the state U-19 team? Only fifteen boys get selected, so there will be a lot of young, disappointed kids, and people will start giving up the game. There is a huge amount of pressure from schools and parents. You have to play it for the enjoyment factor; making friends, getting physically fit, and learning about life through sport."
The coup behind David Johnson's selection
Dravid spoke of his experiences growing up. "One of my great memories was playing with the likes of Roger Binny, Carlton Saldhana and Sadanand Viswanath. To play against GR Viswanath, who was still playing for State Bank of India and Raghuram Bhatt on a matting wicket, you knew these were great cricketers. It was a great opportunity for a 16-year-old boy to learn and play with these great cricketers."
Dravid also mentioned that long train journeys with the likes of Viswanath and Binny contributed a lot to the development of him and Srinath as players, as it allowed them special insight and access to their wealth of knowledge. These journeys also helped forge a special bond between the players, he said, one which ultimately transcended into the Indian team, which at the time boasted a significant contingent of Karnataka players.
One other point, which was touched upon by each member of the panel, which included N Doraiswamy, club secretary of Friends Union Cricket Club, and Dr S Krishnamurthy, former administrator, was the growing need for facilities and open spaces for cricket to continue to thrive in and around Bangalore. With the advent of urban sprawl and the coinciding population boom, commute times have lengthened and the competition for club spaces have increased. The KSCA has attempted to rectify this to an extent with the introduction of their summer coaching camps, which allow aspiring cricketers access to qualified coaches and a robust infrastructure. Private academies have also shot up, but the costs may prove a deterrent to impoverished players.

Jim Bell Named Executive Producer of NBC's Olympics Coverage
Jim Bell, who served as the executive producer of the 2012 London Olympics, the most-watched event in U.S. television history, has been named the full-time Executive Producer of NBCUniversal's coverage of the Olympic Games. Bell reports to NBC Sports Group Chairman Mark Lazarus, who made the announcement today.
Bell will have editorial and creative control over NBC's Games and rejoins full time the NBC Olympics Unit, led by Gary Zenkel, President, NBC Olympics.
"There is no doubt that Jim is the right person to be our Olympic production leader into the future," said Lazarus. "His professionalism was unmatched in leading the London Olympics to record levels. Jim has worked with the best in the Olympic television world, and we're excited to have him join us as the full-time executive producer."
"The Olympic legacy at NBCUniversal is long and rich, and Jim has had a role with this unit going all the way back to Barcelona in 1992," said Zenkel. "It will be great to have Jim back full time as part of our incredibly talented and experienced production team."
Bell rejoins NBC Sports Group full time following seven years leading TODAY, the iconic news program that dominated the morning ratings race for 16 years, earned five Emmys, seven Edward R. Murrow Awards and nine Headliner Awards. He served as both executive producer of TODAY and the London Olympics earlier this year.
Prior to joining TODAY in 2005, Bell spent 16 years with NBC Sports & Olympics. He has worked on every Olympic Games NBC has broadcast since 1992 in either sports (1992, 1996, 2000, 2002, 2004 and 2012) or news (2006, 2008 and 2010). Bell won Emmys for his work on the 1992, 1996, 2000 & 2002 Olympics and a Peabody for NBC's coverage of the 2008 Beijing Olympics Opening Ceremony.
His NBC Sports & Olympics career began in 1990 when he was hired to work in the profiles unit for the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games and concluded in 2004 when he served as coordinating producer for NBC Olympics, overseeing all aspects of nearly 100 hours of afternoon and late night Olympic programming during the 2004 Athens Games.
"The Olympics is one of the signature franchises in television, and for more than two decades they've been a huge part of my life," said Bell. "The London Olympics was especially exciting for me, and I look forward to continuing through future Games working with so many good friends and colleagues."
