New Delhi, Nov 28 (IANS) Ali Khan">Soha Ali Khan has dabbled in a variety of roles in her four-year-old career but says it is the spunk factor in a character that attracts her the most.
'Generally, female roles in commercial films don't offer much scope to showcase talent. While choosing my roles, I make sure that the role has some spunk in it,' Soha told IANS.
She will soon be seen in an unusual pairing with seasoned actor Irrfan Khan in the light-hearted comedy 'Dil Kabaddi'. Releasing Dec 5, the film will see her as a cosmetic surgeon armed with a compulsive cleanliness disorder.
'When you have done one kind of role, you obviously want to do something else. My idea is to play a character or to have a scene or an emotion or a moment in a film, whereby you can perform or do something different,' she said.
On being asked about the kind of roles or films she is inclined towards, Soha said: 'It's difficult to specify one thing, but I appreciate working with directors like Rituparno Ghosh and Sudhir Mishra who make female-oriented films.
'All their women are strong, ambitious and passionate and that needs to be more accurately reflected in Indian films. Bollywood is slowly perhaps getting there but still not there.'
The young actress, who was noticed in films like 'Rang De Basanti', 'Khoya Khoya Chand' and more recently 'Mumbai Meri Jaan', added she misses the days of yesteryear actors like Meena Kumari and Waheeda Rehman.
'In those days, they were really worshipped heroines. They used to play strong roles but such strong portrayals of a woman are rare in today's films,' she said.
Though Soha lamented the dearth of quality cinema nowadays, she is happy with the work she has been doing. 'I have been quite blessed to work with good co-actors and directors,' she said.

The BA/MAT
Designed as a five-year program, the BA/MAT allows residential students to complete a bachelor of arts and a Master of Arts in Teaching and to be eligible for Virginia Teacher Licensure upon graduation. Students combine graduate courses with undergraduate work, leading to an MAT prior to the start of their teaching careers and enriching their pre-service preparation.
Adult Degree Program students who are interested in earning the Master of Arts in Teaching degree should work with their advisors to plan the most effective way to achieve their goal of earning both the BA and MAT degrees along with teacher licensure.
First Year: First-year students work with their advisor to investigate the necessary courses and review requirements. Students begin to fulfill both general education and core requirements.
Second Year: In consultation with their major advisor, students work closely with a member of the Education Department to ensure that their program will satisfy both the requirements of the major or minor area of study, as well as required courses for teacher licensure. Students may apply and be accepted into the BA/MAT program in the spring.
Third Year: Upon acceptance into the program, the student will be assigned both undergraduate and graduate faculty advisors to plan a program of study that includes required coursework, field experience, and student teaching, while continuing to fulfill the menu of undergraduate courses.
Fourth Year: At the end of the fourth year of study, students will have earned the baccalaureate degree, and will then continue building upon their graduate studies.
Fifth Year: Student finishes MAT coursework and student teaching.

Considering what's been happening not only with our own government, but worldwide. If all this is true, I'd have to question the intentions of the aliens. After supposedly being here for so long and so advanced, they must condone if not facilitate the the beating down of the common person in the world. I can't imagine any "benevolent" advanced society allowing this criminality by the few to the many. Don't bother with the "free will" crap or the Star Trek "non-interference" bull. Those are the easy outs for anyone who just has no clue. Logic dictates that their "concern" for the human race would necessitate action of some sort, in less than thousands of years . Again, if true....the actions speak for themselves. Our welfare certainly isn't their concern, it appears to be for the "few".
Anonymous Coward 41811148
I would posit that as the annunaki created humans as a slave race that they were the progenitors of the ideal we see around us now, everywhere... The few controlling, oppressing the many. Its a part of the human genetic memory. If we have their dna and were created in their image, then it would be no small surprise that our world has shaped up just like theirs in their absence. Except I don't really believe that they are gone.
There have been "watchers" for many years, but not enough to make considerable changes. Only enough to keep us from annihilating ourselves. The big changes began when Nibiru made it's important appearance in early May. On a Sat night/Sun morning. Notice how the gov corruption has been exposed and keeps getting exposed more and more? Thank ole' Nibiru for that one. We as human being have been cheated and our constitution null and void. The signs of his arrival has been here since the animal cloud parade and the literal signs of the book of Revelations. Only too many people never paid attention.
By universal law, they are not allowed to full destroy this planet, but they have relatives they must save. Our govs knew about the return, as they got word in the 50's, but never listened. Instead our gov, who really aren't people at all, thought they could dig tunnels into the earth and save themselves and this planet. Jokes on them! The bible is full of truths that man was unable to bury.
It'll all be out soon. I just wish it would be sooner..

BRISBANE, Australia - An Australian state lawmaker accused of sending raunchy pictures of himself to a woman stepped down as the head of an ethics committee on Tuesday, apologizing to his family and dubbing the scandal indefensible.
The allegations against Peter Dowling, a member of Queensland state's ruling conservative Liberal National Party, emerged after The Courier-Mail newspaper reported on Tuesday that a woman claiming to be the politician's mistress sent a letter detailing their two-and-a-half-year affair to state parliament Speaker Fiona Simpson.
The newspaper said it had seen several explicit text messages between Dowling and the woman, including a picture of a penis resting in a glass of wine. The photo was accompanied by the message, "He wanted a Red Wine..."
On Tuesday morning, Dowling - who, according to his website, has two children with his wife of 27 years - stood before his fellow lawmakers and offered a mea culpa.
"I owe my family an apology. I am sorry for the pain and embarrassment I caused you," Dowling told parliament. "I am not proud of the events plastered all over the paper. I can't and won't defend any part of it."
Dowling is also accused of taking advantage of parliament business trips to meet the woman. Her name was not released and her face was blacked out in published photos of her and Dowling.

Nice fic, nice indeed. You know, not a very many thing, but I had to fight back a few tears.
| Gun toten Girly chapter 3 . 1/28/2008
Okay, I had the most creepiest thing ever happen to me. (don't worry, it's related to your story.)
Alright, so I finished readin this a couple days ago and let me tell you, amazing story, even though I've never seen the movie.
Okay, so I stayed home sick today from school. I was on the couch and I was flippin' through HBO. and I swear to God that when I thought of "what movie should I watch" I thought of:
"Wouldn't it be cool if they had that one movie that I was just reading about the other day? I think it was called 'Before Sunrise'."
I think God has a special thing for me 'cause when I was scrolling down the movies, their was "Before Sunrise".
I shot up off the couch and watched a preview of it and I must say, you captured the plot beautifully from the little scenes I saw. I wanted to watch it SO bad, but it was rated R and I was afraid that there might be some... scenes.
So I really want to ask you this question. Does the movie have some inappropriate content? 'Cause I know you said you cut out some scenes from the movie into your story, so I really want to know.
Thank you so much! And I absolutely love this story! It's SO going on my fav's!

Legitimisation of Knowledge: Political Connotations in Geography
Abstract:Text books conventionally define a unique literature, in style of writing as well as in theoretical and political positions that they hold. The present article examines text books and especially looks into how geography texts deal with an all encompassing relationship of human-nature that shapes the world historically, politically, aesthetically etc.
Learning is enriched through reading; it helps us to go beyond our experiences of everyday life, adds new dimensions to our observations. Very often it takes the reader to time-space experiences that s/he might not otherwise visit. These provide historical and spatial depths to interpretations. But are these potentials lost through the particular nature of text book writing?
What are the premises in which cryptic and formula—like text writing becomes established and where elaborations and explanations are avoided? What pedagogic and socio-political implications do these enhance in interpretations of the world?
These issues are examined through experiences of some workshops and through reviews of geography school textbooks. This essay begins with a reflection on the rich enhancement of literature and how text book traditions depart from those. The following section examines some nuances of human-nature relations as portrayed in school geography text books. It is interesting that explicit influences of capitalist relations can be traced to both the style and the content of the texts.
In the final section Eklavya1 text books, that were created on the basis of pedagogic and social sciences critiques of existing practices in schools, are examined. Both content and style of Eklavya texts books are seen to do away with the alienation of conventional texts. Hence these had demonstrates possibilities of creating meaningful learning contexts.
Nevertheless, a critical appraisal of human-nature relations as seen in these texts reveal some aspects to be considered for further enrichment. These are (1)the role of social organization without which human relationships with nature are not materialized (2) the role of spatial demarcations (like regions) in analyzing human-nature relations.

Service will connect owners with live car data, among other features.
By Lisa Lacy
Toyota is rolling out a private social network for Toyota customers and their cars.
Launching initially in Japan with electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids, the Toyota Friend network will run on private social network platform Salesforce Chatter. It will connect vehicle owners to each other and to the brand, and among other things will help them use mobile apps to schedule maintenance.
Paul Nolasco, assistant manager of Toyota's global communications department, said the service will help "retain appeal for consumers over the next century."
Toyota Friend can be used with smartphones, tablets, and other portable devices as well as the dashboard of some models. When the car is due for maintenance, it sends the owner a "tweet-like" message. The owner can then reply to the car, which could then proceed, if directed by the owner, to contact the dealer for an appointment.
Using Toyota Friend, vehicles can transmit oil level, tire pressure, and battery charge data, and owners can exchange information on environmentally friendly driving methods and recommended destinations. They can even turn on seat warmers from their mobile devices on cold days.
Owners will also be able to use the service to post content to Twitter, Facebook, and other social networks.
"Conventionally, our cars can communicate with us via warning lights and buzzers. But this same information can be relayed to us through [social network systems], like much of the other information we receive daily," Nolasco says.
According to Nolasco, Salesforce.com proposed the idea of a private network for Toyota owners and it "meshed extremely well with ideas that our company had envisioned for the future of the automobile, namely enhancing the connectivity of automobiles and their users."
The notion of gathering data through mobile apps is not new. In 2009, AKQA created an app that used in-car USB ports to let U.K. car owners track their CO2 emissions via an application. The initiative won a Grand Prix at the 2009 Cannes Lions ad festival.

Jamie Slater, Special to WTOP.com
WASHINGTON–The 2014 Oscars are Sunday, but the semifinalists for the so- called Food Oscars, or the James Beard Awards, were announced last week.
"It's really a night in May when the food industry gets together and just celebrates the best of the best," says Mary Beth Albright, WTOP foodie and food lawyer. "Washington D.C., this area, is really just awash in great talent."
On May 2 and 5, the awards will recognize the best food and beverage professionals in the country. This includes restaurants, chefs, mixologists, cookbook authors and food journalists.
"The nominations come from industry people," Albright says. "Everything is culled down by the best of the best in the industry. This is a review of your peers, it's just like the Academy. All of these people that I'm about to mention would like to thank the academy of food cognoscenti."
Roses Luxury, a small, family-style restaurant on Capitol Hill that takes no reservations, has been nominated for the best new restaurant in the country.
Albright pointed out that, although there are some restaurants that fly under the radar, Roses Luxury deserves its nomination.
"There are certain restaurants that you just really love that people love but don't necessarily get a lot of media attention," she says. "Rose's Luxury has started getting a lot of media attention, obviously, but for the right reasons."
Other restaurant nominations include Jaleo and Vidalia for most outstanding restaurant in the country, Komi and Marcel's for outstanding service and Cityzen and Marcel's for outstanding wine program.
Tiffany MacIsaac from Birch & Barley was nominated for outstanding pastry chef. "She's amazing, so we're really pushing for her, and she's the only one in D.C. up for pastry chef," Albright says.
One nomination for best chef went to Tony Chittum, the Executive Chef for Iron Gate, which opened in November. "It just opened. It's the oldest operating restaurant in D.C., but Neighborhood Restaurant Group just took it over and redid it," Albright says. "It's Greek and Southern Italian. It's fantastic – I was just there last week."
The full list of semifinalists can be found

Lee commissioners get '$8 million lesson'
Lee County will pay more than $8.3 million to settle a lawsuit, and almost $2 million of that amount is from fees, costs and interest accrued during a failed appeal of the original judgment.
The Board of County Commissioners approved the $8,389,225 settlement Tuesday. Commissioner Frank Mann said he did not recall being told how much interest the judgment had already accrued or that "the meter was still running" during the appeals process.
"This is a disastrous result," Mann said. "I don't think I was well-informed at that time, but that excuse is kind of flimsy at this point."
The settlement stems from two lawsuits filed by developers against the county over a proposed development known as Buckingham Village.
In 2004, the plaintiffs applied to change the property's zoning from agricultural to a mixed-use planning development. Though both county staff and the hearing examiner recommended approval with conditions, the board denied the rezoning request Dec. 13, 2006.
Developers claimed the board's decision cost them millions of dollars.
In November 2011, a circuit court ruled in favor of the developers. In May 2012, a jury set the judgment owed by the county at $4.6 million. Another $2,028,688.85 in prejudgment interest was tacked on to cover a period from Dec. 13, 2006, to June 2, 2010.
Additionally, the judgment said the county would be charged about $860 per day from June 1, 2012, through the date of payment.
Lee's then-County Attorney Michael Hunt recommended the board appeal the judgment, according to emails obtained by the Daily News.
During a June 19, 2012, meeting, Lee's board — which at that time consisted of Commissioners Mann, Tammy Hall, John Manning, Ray Judah and Brian Bigelow — authorized the appeal.
"This is to preserve our interests," Hunt said at that meeting.
"I understand," Manning said.
But after almost a year, the appeal attempt failed and the county's liability swelled.
Commissioner Larry Kiker said at Tuesday's meeting that county officials should pay attention to what happened in this case.
"This an $8 million lesson," he said.
The money to pay for the judgment will come from the county's self-insurance loss fund for property, casualty and general liability claims. All county departments contribute annually to the fund, which currently has about $25 million, according to county officials.

With the NBA and NHL drafts recently completed, the baseball draft just three weeks in the past and the Patriots set to head to training camp next month with a host of key draft picks on defense, now seems as good a time as any to play a little game:
If you were going grocery shopping and wanted someone to push the cart, who among Boston's four general managers would you chose for the job? You can only have one. Who is the best at picking them.
It's a tough call, because for the time ever (I think) all four GMs are worthy of discussion. And at least three -- Bill Belichick, Theo Epstein and Danny Ainge -- are among the very best at what they do. As hard as it is to chose one over the other, we'll give it a shot below.
Keep in mind, this ranking only involves drafting ability. We're not addressing trades, salary cap management or other aspects of the job. This is purely about walking into a high school gym or a college athletic facility and judging who can play and who can't.
Here's how I'd currently rank them:
1. Ainge
Surprised? Don't blame you. He's got one ring with the Celtics while Bill Belichick has three and Theo Epstein has two. Ainge wins this battle despite a roomier trophy case, primarily because I think it's harder to build a champion in the NBA than it is in any other league. And the way he did it is nearly impossible.
Consider this: Since 1980, a grand total of seven NBA franchises have won the championship. Think of that. Seven teams in nearly 30 years. And virtually all were led by singular talents. If you had Larry, Magic, Isiah, Michael, Hakeem, Duncan, Shaq, D Wade or Kobe, you won. If you didn't, you didn't. It's the nature of the beast in the NBA -- the best players almost always win, and there are only a handful of them to go around. And the salary cap has only made it tougher. One bad deal can kill you for years. Drafting high every year means nothing. If you're a bad team in cold-weather city, star players won't come to you. Assembling a collection of good-but-not-great talent that plays well together isn't nearly enough. The 2001 Patriots don't happen in the NBA. For the most part, you have to be fortunate enough to be picking high in the lottery the year a franchise player is available in the draft. That's how most NBA champions other than the Lakers have been built.
What Ainge has done is rare. Yes, the Celts bottomed-out with 24 wins the year before they won the championship -- but this team was not built with lottery magic. It was built through excellent draft picks in the teens and lower over a period of five years, picks that yielded players who are either contributing to the current mix or were dealt for the stars who really made it happen.
Al Jefferson (picked at No. 15), Ryan Gomes (No. 50) and Gerald Green (No. 18)20helped get you Kevin Garnett. Delonte West (No. 24) helped get you Ray Allen. Rajon Rondo (No. 21, as part of a draft day deal with Phoenix), Kendrick Perkins (No. 27, as part of a draft day trade with Memphis), Glen Davis (No. 35, as part of the Allen trade) and Leon Powe (No. 49, as part of a trade with Denver) stayed to become key parts of the equation.
Notice that none of the above-mentioned players came high in the first round. In fact, Ainge has had just two single-digit picks with which to build with: The No. 5 pick in 2007 (Jeff Green) was used to land Allen. The No. 7 pick in 2006 (Randy Foye) was shipped to Portland for a pile of garbage (Theo Ratliff, Sebastian Telfair). The rest of Ainge's selections came from back in the pack. Jefferson. Gomes. West. Rondo. Perkins. Davis Powe. There are teams who have been drafting in the top 10 for a decade and haven't pulled in that many useful players/trading chips.
This isn't to say that Ainge hasn't whiffed. Of course he has. Green was a bust, as was Marcus Banks (taken at No. 13, in the Memphis trade).
Ainge has also had some incredible luck. Had the ping pong balls spat out in a different combination a few years ago, the C's would have had Greg Oden and not Garnett. And, of course, it's good to have friends in the right places. Thank you, Kevin McHale.
But the bottom line is the bottom line. The Celts didn't win the lottery the year Hakeem, Duncan or LeBron were available. They aren't in a major-market, warm-weather city where NBA players wanted to go. And still Ainge managed to turn them back into a champi on.
Neat trick, that.
2. Belichick
Two things skew the assessment of Belichick as a talent evaluator: 1. His ability as a coach. 2. Tom Brady.
There's also the winning. Three Super Bowl titles, eight-straight winning seasons and six division crowns tend to generate a lot of credit -- and so Belichick has justly received it.
But when it comes to picking the groceries, the analysis isn't as clear-cut. Belichick is such a good coach and has built such a consistently successful program that a lot of his draft picks end up looking good just because of their surroundings. And Brady only adds to that. Take the offensive line. We look at how it was built and see draft picks across the board, giving the impression that unit was built on the strength of college evaluation. But would Matt Light (second round) be an all-pro in any other system playing in front of any other quarterback? Hard to imagine. We all look at Dan Koppen (fifth round), Logan Mankins (the 32nd pick in the first round) and Nick Kaczur (third round) as solid picks. And they were. But Brady makes them look like great picks.
Belichick certainly would have run away with this competition a few years ago, but his record hasn't been as strong since the Pats last championship in 2004. And his back-to-back weak drafts in 2006 and 2007 were particularly glaring.
To refresh: With Deion Branch's contract battle and Corey Dillon's decline as the likely motivations, the Pats went with offense in the 2006 draft -- and failed. Laurence Maroney, Chad Jackson, Dave Thomas and Garrett Mills were the first four players off the board, and all have been disappointments or flat out busts. The next year saw a different approach, with a second-round pick being sent to Miami for Wes Welker and a fourth going to Oakland for Randy Moss. Those deals were terrific for the Pats, but they also left a big hole between their first-round pick (No. 24) and their next selection at No. 127 in the fourth round. So after safety Brandon Meriweather came off the board, the rest of the weekend was essentially a waste. Only Meriweather and reserve defensive back Mike Richardson remain from that draft class.
Those two years caught up to the Pats this past year, when they ranked 31st in the NFL in the red zone, 31st in touchdown passes allowed and 26th in third-down defense. Belichick has spent the last two drafts digging out of it, and if history is any indication, the defensive woes that plagued the Pats the past couple of years will be history themselves soon. Belichick has proven that once he puts his mind to correcting a problem, it usually gets solved. Whether it's 2008 draft picks Jonathan Wilhite and Terrence Wheatley, or rookie Patrick Chung and Darius Butler, or some combination of Meriweather, Sanders and veterans Shawn Springs and Leigh Bodden -- the Pats figure to tighten in the secondary this season.
And if they don't? We'll have to look even more critically at Belichick's ability to pick 'em, especially in the secondary. Remember, Brady doesn't play defense.
3. Epstein
He promised to build a player development machine when he took over, and that's pretty much what's happened.
Jonathan Papelbon (fourth round), Dustin Pedroia (second), Jacoby Ellsbury (first), and Justin Masterson (second) have contributed directly to the Sox' run. Kevin Youkilis (drafted in the 8th round by Dan Duquette), Manny Delcarmen (a Duquette second-rounder) and Jon Lester (drafted in the second round by Mike Port, with Theo serving as assistant GM, in 2002) were developed under Epstein's program. Daniel Bard (first), Clay Buchholz (first), Michael Bowden (first) and Lars Anderson (18th) are in the pipeline.
This is Epstein's legacy. It's not his failures at shortstop. It's not his prior futility in landing setup guys (something he's=2 0corrected the last few years with Hideki Okajima, Masterson, Ramon Ramirez and Takashi Saito). It's not JD Drew's salary or the pursuit of Daisuke Matsuzaka. Fans like to bitch about those things, but they pale in importance to building a system.
The 2007 title was his. The 2004 title has to be shared with Duquette, especially given the importance of guys like Manny Ramirez, Johnny Damon, Jason Varitek, Derek Lowe, Tim Wakefield and Pedro Martinez to that team. But the Sox wouldn't have won that first title without Curt Schilling, Keith Foulke, Kevin Millar, David Ortiz, Bill Mueller, Dave Roberts, Orlando Cabrera and Doug Mientkiewicz. So if you're asking me who was MORE responsible for 2004, Theo or the Duke, I'm going with Epstein.
As we stand today, Epstein's seven-year resume as GM of the Sox looks like this: two titles, four ALCS appearances and five trips to the playoffs, with an excellent chance for a sixth this season. As Larry David would say, that's pretty good.
4. Peter Chiarelli
Before you start to fit the Bruins' general manager for his genius hat, read this.
So Chiarelli thought he was going to get Tomas Kaberle AND the Leafs' No. 7 overall pick on Friday? Not quite. The Leafs were under the impression that the Bruins would be the ones giving up a first-rounder and the deal blew up. Quite a misunderstanding, wouldn't you say? Anyway, Chiarelli's heart is in the right place. Landing a skilled defensemen is the Bruins' No. 1 need this offseason, and Kaberle fits the bill. I have no problem with him using the incomplete and inconsistent Kessel as bait, even though he scored a team-high 36 goals last year.
As for Chiarelli's record, it's stronger on the development end than the drafting end -- at least so far. Most of the B's current young core was drafted by Mike O'Connell or his assistant Jeff Gorton. Patrice Bergeron (second round, 2003), David Krejci (second round, 2004), Mark Stuart (first round, 2003) and Byron Bitz (fourth round, 2003) were drafted by O'Connell. Milan Lucic (second round, 2006) and Kessel (first round, 2006) were selected when Gorton was technically in charge of the board over the transition summer of 2006.
So Chiarelli didn't necessarily pick those groceries, but he cooked them up very well. That has been perhaps the biggest change from th e old Harry Sinden/O'Connell regime. The new age Bruins have begun to develop players and cultivate talent through the system. That's on Chiarelli. He also deserves credit for trusting some of the prospects he inherited. Many GMs want "their guys." Chiarelli didn't get hung up on that (the Kris Versteeg deal notwithstanding).
As for Chiarelli's own picks, we're going to have to wait and see. His 2007 first-rounder, Zach Hamill (No. 8 overall) had disappointing 13-13-26 totals in 65 games in Providence last season. His 2008 top choice, defenseman Joe Colborne, will head back to the Denver University next year.
Overall, given what Belichick, Epstein and Ainge have accomplished, Chiarelli (one playoff round win) has a long way to go.
How would you rank them? Let me know and we'll hash it out in the mailbag on Thursday.

This week, we look at planning and decision making skills, in the Asset category of social competencies.
The role of adults needs to be to guide students and assist them with their planning and not just make all of their decisions for them.
Now is the time when sixth through 11th grade students pull out the registration booklet and decide what they want or need to be doing academically, for the entire school year next year.
Personally, I believe that small decisions related to electives need to left up to the youth. Students need something to float the boat and lift the spirits when in other areas of life; the pressure may be on overdrive.
The hard decisions of which math class to be in can become a battleground for some and we need to realize the additional pressures each grade level brings and realize that it isn't just one class from their perspective.
On March 27, student Tessa Snyder will be doing a community showing of the movie, "A Race to No Where." There will be a host of opportunities to provide details, but for now, I'm hoping you will save the date.
