I'm 24 but people keeping telling me they thought I was 19. I want to date guys older than me like around 25-27 but they talk to me like I'm a little girl. And I keep attracting young guys/boys. It sucks... what do I do.

Maybe it's not just the way you look but the way you act? It has to be. The way I see it, it's definitely a win-win situation for you. We don't wanna date 18 year olds because they're immature, just out of HS with little experience on life but do we find them physically attractive? ofc! Assuming you have the maturity of a 24 year old and you have the looks of a 19 year old, you are in a 100% win-win situation!
Look at this data from OKcupid, basically guys think girls of age 20~ look the best to them:
Personal story of mine, I was attracted to a girl a while ago but she looked younger than girls of my age. I kept thinking "God I hope she's not like 18 or some shit, she better be 21 atleast". I asked her and found out she was 24! I was so shocked and I said 'wow really, I thought you were straight outta high school!." I think she took it the wrong way, she didn't say anything back. What I meant was that she aged really well and I liked that!00|00|0


text: SAN FRANCISCO -- Wall Street loves to second-guess Hewlett-Packard's ( HPQ) mega-deals. The company's shares plunged 35% in the weeks following the announcement of its intention to acquire Compaq for $25 billion in stock in 2001, as investors questioned the wisdom of combining the two PC makers. And H-P's move to acquire technology services firm EDS ( EDS) for $13.9 billion on Tuesday -- its largest deal since Compaq -- did not play much better among investors. Shares of H-P sank 6.4%, or $2.99, to $43.84 in midday trading. The move will reshape the market for technology consulting and outsourcing services, as H-P turns up the competition on IBM ( IBM), the No.1 player in the services market. H-P said pairing up with EDS will allow it to provide a broader menu of services to business customers around the world that are increasingly looking to outsource various parts of their operations. And in a business where size matters, the two companies' combined revenue of $38 billion creates a clear No.2 player in the market. "If you look at where we were from a market share point of view, if you try and do this organically it just takes too long," said H-P Chief Strategy and Technology Officer Shane Robison in an interview with TheStreet.com. "The opportunity is there today and we want to capture it." But the grand vision was overshadowed by some of the deal's less-appealing details.

SpongeBob SquarePants and Finding Nemo Crossover is a 2012 American animated film that has 2 storys in the screen. The first movie, SpongeBob and Patrick Story will aired on September 8, 2012 and the second movie, Marlin and Dory Story will aired on TBA, 2013.
SpongeBob and Patrick Story
Mr. Krabs
King Neptune
The Cyclops
David Hasselhoff
Mrs. Puff
Marlin and Dory Story
SpongeBob and Patrick Story
It's spring cleaning day again and SpongeBob works diligently again on his house. When he takes out his garbage, Patrick reprimands him for letting go of all these sentimental items. After pondering the concept, SpongeBob agrees and goes to the Krusty Krab mopping. He adds too much mustard to the Krabby Patty. Mr. Krabs isn't happy with this, however, he assumes SpongeBob is a failure. So Mr. Krabs sends SpongeBob home to get more cryin'.
SpongeBob and Patrick are so sad that Mr. Krabs kicks SpongeBob in home they decide to meet go in Sandy's Treedome. At her Treedome, Sandy was so scared because the two fishes are coming and SpongeBob, Patrick, Marlin, and Dory bonk each other. After getting hurt, Dory tells everyone to split up.
When they got split up, SpongeBob and Patrick take the "Patty Wagon", a car shaped like a Krabby Patty. By the following day, Plankton envise SpongeBob and Patrick, and states he tried every plan in his cabinet from "A to Y". They are actually 26 letters of the alphabet, and Plankton doesn't notice it at first, but Karen, his computer wife, tells him. Plankton finds "Plan Z" in the back of the drawer. He thinks it's his best plan yet. 7 hours later, they soon reach a gas station located on the country line, where the hillbilly owners laugh at them, finding the duo and their vehicle stupid. They tell SpongeBob and Patrick that they wouldn't last ten seconds over the country line. When SpongeBob and Patrick cross the line, their car is immediately stolen by a thug. SpongeBob and Patrick then realize that they lasted to twelve seconds, and begin laughing at the hillbillies, who are dumbfounded by their idiocy, as they continue on foot.
Later than evening, Squidward sees that everyone is wearing helmet buckets and after a woman tells him that Plankton is giving them free with the Krabby Patties, he goes to confront Plankton, telling him that Plankton was the one who stole King Neptune's crown to get the Krabby Patty formula and decides to report him to King Neptune but before he leaves the Chum Bucket, Plankton activates a mind-control device, revealing that the bucket helmets are mind controlling helmets. Squidward tries to escape but the slaved citizens corner and capture him, taking down the last opposition to Plankton in Bikini Bottom and transforms the city into "Planktopolis".
Then, a professional hitman named, Dennis to ensure that SpongeBob and Patrick do not reach Shell City. Later, they find a car parked at the "Thug Tug", a bar for tough, muscular fish. SpongeBob has Patrick distract the thugs so he can get the key. (Unfortunately, Patrick just said, "I have to to go to the bathroom", making SpongeBob unsuccessful, and getting his hands dirty in the process.) SpongeBob heads for the bathroom to wash his hands, when he uses the soup dispenser, it produces bubbles. SpongeBob and Patrick begin having a "Bubble Party", but one bubble floats over the leader of the "Thug Tug", who reminds the other pars patrons of the policy that all "Bubble Blowing Babies" will be severely beaten. The leader goes on a "Bubble Blowing Baby Hunt" by turning on the Goofy Goober Theme Song, where the first person to start singing is determined to be the culprit. SpongeBob and Patrick struggle not to start singing, then the owner starts singing it to SpongeBob and Patrick, causing SpongeBob's eyes to water and Patrick to start melting, and they are only saved when Siamese Twins burst out in song. The other thugs begin beating them, allowing SpongeBob and Patrick to steal the key amidst the confusion and depart.
The next day, Neptune arrives at the Krusty Krab after receiving evidence planted by Plankton of Mr. Krabs stealing his crown, which is a note saying, I stole your crown, Signed, Eugene Krabs. Mr. Krabs denies stealing the crown, but a message then plays on the phone of a man thanking Mr. Krabs for giving him a crown and saying that he sold it to the Shell City. This call is actually for Plankton. Neptune gets REALLY angry and plans to freeze Mr. Krabs to a frozen solid.
SpongeBob and Patrick are traveling through a field of skulls, laughing over their victory at the Thug Tug. This see an Ice Cream Stand, but when SpongeBob goes to order, the old lady running the stand is revealed to be the tongue of a monstrous Frogfish using the Ice Cream Stand as bait. SpongeBob and Patrick are chased by a large sea monster, eventually driving off a cliff and getting out of the car just in time. The Frogfish is lured off the edgem and subsequently is eaten by an even larger beast that is a gigantic sea serpent that appears from the trench.
Meanwhile, Dennis is at the "Thug Tug" outside. He blows bubble and sees them, but the leader tells him not to blow bubbles. He snapped to the thugs saying do not blow bubbles, but Dennis punched the leader and the thug tug was destroyed and Dennis rides away from the thugs.
While SpongeBob and Patrick are falling in the trench without fear, they're going to Shell City dead ahead (singing, "Now That We're Men"). Meanwhile, Dennis is going through the field of skulls to meet SpongeBob and Patrick. Next, they meet up with Dennis on the other side. He rips off their fake mustaches and explains to them that they are not really men, and prepares to kill them by crushing them under his boot. However, before he can do so, Dennis himself is crushed by a gigantic boot, belonging to a monstrous scuba driver named, "The Cyclops", who abducts SpongeBob and Patrick to the surface.
2000 years later, Plankton rips the chalender, March 14, but is not right he says today is "Mr. Krabs fries". Plankton gets so excited, while King Neptune is about to burn Mr. Krabs, but Mindy says, "I'm not stalling" and King Neptune says, "Your stalling". He had enough to do that. He sends Mindy outside the Krusty Krab, locked in the door.
SpongeBob and Patrick wake up in a goldfish bowl filled with freshwater and sedimentary pebbles. They see the Cyclops making "knick-knacks" from dead sea creatures, much to their horror, and are soon taken out of the bowl and puts on a table under a heat lamp, and start to dry up. When they skipped to SpongeBob and Patrick dying, the "Tear of the Goofy Goober" slides down a wire into the power outlet, causing it to short circuit and let out smoke, which rises up and activates the sprinkler system, causing all the sea creature to reanimate. As the sea creatures (which include a mariachi band playing a song from Mexico) beat up "The Cyclops," SpongeBob and Patrick grab the crown and carry it out the beach. There, SpongeBob reads the manual of the bag of winds, and Patrick accidentally releases it, leaving them standed on the beach. However, David Hasselhoff arrives and carries them across the ocean on his back.
On the way back home, the big boot belonging to the same driver that kidnapped them rises up sea, and an angry Dennis emerges from below it, intent on finishing the job and goes after Patrick and SpongeBob with his dagger in hand. He corners SpongeBob who attempts to reason with Dennis (by bribing him with five Goober dollars); Dennis is uninterested, so SpongeBob proceeded to more offers - including a bubble-blower that sent a steam of bubbles to Dennis' eyes, blinding him and making him even angrier. But just as he is about to stomp on them with his boot, he ends up getting knocked into the ocean by a floating sailboat as the duo arrive over Bikini Bottom. Hasselhoff opens his pectoral muscles and prepares countsown and shoots the duo down into Bikini Bottom at fast speed, where they crash through the roof of the Krusty Krab, the crown deflecting the trident blast that nearly kills Mr. Krabs, and ends up burning Hasselhoff.
Plankton failed at SpongeBob, Patrick, and Mr. Krabs (frozen by King Neptune moving) and the cops put him in a little cage and takes him away. Squidward suggests to SpongeBob that he has learned that he doesn't really need to be the manager of the Krusty Krab 2, but SpongeBob eagerly takes the position anyway.
When, SpongeBob and Patrick are traveled to the Reef, they meet them again and Nemo leaves for school, with Marlin telling him to "go have an adventure."

Moved this item here:
- Battlestar Galactica (Reimagined) did this extensively in its second half, due to a bad case of Writing by the Seat of Your Pants which stacked up. Creator Ron D. Moore later admitted that despite the show's initial dependence on meticulously plotted storyarcs, he hadn't actually planned out anything for the show beyond the end of the second season (various ideas like "another Battlestar also survived" or "what if they find a habitable planet that isn't Earth"? had been exhausted). Half of the core writing staff also left at the end of season two (despite the fact that the show had just won a Peabody Award and was at the height of its popularity - leading to theories that they may have become frustrated at the behind-the-scenes lack of planning on Moore's part, and jumped ship while they still could). The network also meddled with the show by upping the episode order to 20 episodes in Season 2, broken into two micro-seasons (which they barely handled and resulted in the disowned episode "Black Market"), and then in Season 3 ordering 20 episodes in a continuous run, not broken into micro-seasons. This resulted in a perfect storm: Moore was out of pre-existing ideas, had insanely high production quotas, and several of his experienced core staff had left. A major point that Ron Moore kept pursuing though...is that he later adamantly insisted that he could tie things together retroactively into functional storyarcs that fit together sensibly. After the series finale (controversial, because it really didn't explain many of the plot developments) Moore sat down at the Paley Center 2009 roundtable to discuss it (the whole thing is free on YouTube, albeit cut up into several clips). At the panel, Moore himself confirmed several points:
- Throughout the series, Moore had insisted that all of the plot twists he added were part of a plan. At the panel, he specified that what he meant was that they were "part of a plan" - he just hadn't thought up what that plan was yet. Trying to be unbiased, but if that isn't using Exact Words, what is? Case in point, there never was a "Cylon Plan" - as the opening credits promised in the first two seasons - this was specifically a marketing gimmick that David Eick came up with to hook fans into watching.
- Moore explained to the panel a rationalization he apparently developed in the bubble of the writers' room: he felt that he was fully capable of retroactively welding together disparate plot clues which he hadn't planned out ahead of time into an overall interconnected storyarc. He calls this "the mosaic" effect: he throws different plot elements out against a wall like paint blotches, with no planning, but eventually they fit together like a mosaic. He also compared it to freestyling "like jazz". He stressed that some shows are planned out from the beginning in full detail and that's not a style he uses, but at the other end of the spectrum, insisted that he wasn't just "making it up as we go along" - even though that's what he described the "mosaic" effect as.
- Increasingly in Seasons 3 and 4, Moore would come up with brainstorming ideas with no thought as to how they fit into the show, and at the panel he insisted that his real skill was in being able to sit down during the series finale and weld them all together with a retroactive explanation. For example, the "mandala" image that led Starbuck to her death and rebirth? In Season 3, Starbuck claims that it's a recurring symbol in her life, and she's been doodling it since she was a child. Out of universe, it was just something the art department painted on her apartment wall in Season 2, with no input from the writers. Moore then went back and rewatched that episode looking for something, anything to pick as some thematic symbol that Starbuck had throughout her life (if the art department had dressed the set with a painting of a rabbit, the "symbol of Starbuck's destiny" would have been a rabbit). Another major one is that Moore admitted he never had any idea why the Hybrid child Hera was important at all - to the point that he thought up "she's mitochondrial Eve" as he was writing the finale itself. It was just an idea he randomly incorporated with no foresight in Season 1, but which didn't tie in with the main storyline - until he painfully tried to weld them together. In Season 1, President Roslin's visions of the ruins on Kobol as a restored grand opera house were apparently just visions of Kobol's glorious past - but in the series finale, Moore wanted to hit it over fans' heads that "See? The Hera subplot was vitally interconnected with all of the others!" by insisting that Roslin's opera house visions were a foreshadowing of a final confrontation over Hera with the Cylon leaders in Galactica's CIC (which is a multi-tiered room that sort of looks like a theater). In the panel video Moore fervently explains that Roslin's visions in Season 1 of this were "retroactive foreshadowing", even though he had no idea at the time that they would tie together. Needless to say, many critics (io9, Aint It Cool, etc.) responded to all of this by saying that Moore simply wrote himself into a corner, didn't pay attention to how his storylines were flying blind, then desperately attempted to arc weld them all together to make it look like he planned out the show much more than he ever did.

This trope is supposed to be about retcons, but some of the examples were obviously planned. I'm going to move the Agents Of Shield example to Continuity Creep.

Sacramento, Calif. -- California CIO Teri Takai told Government Technology she wanted to create a chief geographic officer position for the state. Takai mentioned the news at Government Technology Conference's Best of California event December 2008. Naturally the person would drive GIS strategies for the state.
"You do need an individual who is in the lead for the state," Takai said. "It helps when we do collaboration with the counties and other areas of local government. Certainly a chief geographic officer is something we have recommended and are looking at very closely."
She didn't say when or if the search for such an individual would start.
Takai was a guest speaker at Best of California. Others included Kentucky State Data Center Director Ron Crouch, who discussed demographic trends and the future needs of citizens from government IT. In his new role as executive officer of the California Office of Information Security and Privacy, former Colorado Chief Information Security Officer Mark Weatherford addressed the latest trends in security standards and solutions.
Orlando, Fla. -- Janis Benton, deputy director of IT for Houston, was on hand at the Center For Digital Government's Digital Cities Survey award ceremony in Orlando. Benton discussed the $5 million Houston received when EarthLink abandoned plans to build the city a free municipal Wi-Fi network. Houston's contract stipulated a $5 million penalty in the event EarthLink failed to deliver the network. Houston is using the money to bring free Wi-Fi, PCs and technology training to community organizations in low-income areas.
"You can't even get a job today unless you get online and fill out a job application," Benton said.
Community organizations receiving Wi-Fi access include literacy programs and local Boys & Girls Clubs of America facilities.
"We have one organization that works with expectant mothers who are primarily Spanish speaking -- giving them the tool sets to have healthy babies and to learn English," Benton said.
Denver -- Colorado CIO Mike Locatis is urging the Obama administration to rethink how the federal government distributes money to state and local governments. Locatis and others want a coherent, enterprise funding strategy. They say the current funding approach is piecemeal and makes it difficult to maintain, upgrade and secure critical government IT systems.
Locatis met with Obama senior policy advisers in August during the Democratic National Convention in Denver, and he came away encouraged. "I think they have a very good understanding of some of the challenges we have with federal cost allocation and some of the issues associated with creating more of a public-sector ecosystem with federal, state and local governments and how the large technology component of that can be delivered better," he said.

As you get going with your workout program, one great way to maintain higher levels of motivation and ensure that you carry on to see the success you desire is participating in some form of event.
If you happen to be a runner at heart, a marathon – or half marathon, may be right up your alley and give you something to work towards. Having that higher meaning to completing each of your workout sessions is going to ensure that you keep coming back for more, even on those days when you feel like doing anything but.
This said, is a marathon a good goal for you to set and strive to obtain?
Let's have a quick peak at a few of the top things that you need to consider about this goal so you can determine whether it is a smart move.
Do You Have The Time To Commit?
The very first thing that you need to be thinking about is whether you actually have the time to commit to training. Half or full marathon training is going to be a very time intensive goal and if you're running a busy schedule, it may not be the best goal to set.
Instead, a five or ten kilometer race may be a wiser move. While these will still give you good motivation, they won't require nearly the same degree of training time as the half or full marathon would.
Are You Focused On Fat Loss?
Second, you also need to assess what your primary focus is right now. If you're concerned with fat loss and that is your optimal goal, then the marathon training may not be the best of decisions. You shouldn't be reducing your food intake during this training because if anything, your nutrient needs are going to increase dramatically.
Weight loss and long distance training aren't exactly compatible, so you'll need to determine which is your biggest goal and focus on it first and then shift to the next.
Do You Have Training Resources?
The next thing to think about is whether you have the training resources to complete your marathon training. Are you going to require a marathon coach? Or, will you need a treadmill at home to complete those long runs without having to spend time driving to the gym?
Make sure that you do have the resources you need in place as this will make the process that much easier.
Do You Have The Background?
Finally, also have a look at your background. Are you someone who has completed a running race before? Can you run for 30 minutes straight without a problem?
If you're brand new to running and have never done a race before, a marathon may be a slightly lofty goal. Consider a shorter duration race instead and you'll find you grow less frustrated with the process.
So there you have the main factors to take into account with regards to your decision of whether to train for a marathon. It is a great accomplishment to strive for but you need to have certain things in place to succeed with this goal.

In the fleet Iain Percy and Andrew Simpson squeezed ahead of Fredrik Loof and Anders Ekstrom down the first run to round second but then dropped to seventh while covering the Swedish boat and with Robert Scheidt and Bruno Prada leading it meant the Gold was with the Brazilian pair.
Round the final mark the Poles lead and Scheidt and Prada had dropped to fifth, meaning that Percy and Simpson were back in Gold if they beat the Swedish boat.
Down the final run they separated and as they came into the line Percy and Simpson crossed fifth in a goup of four boats, with Loof and Ekstrom last ten seconds behind and it was Gold to Britain.
Scheidt and Prada of Brazil took the Silver with Loof and Ekstrom dropping to Bronze, tied on points with the Brazilian pair.

Today, everyone's life is revolving around social media. Every morning there is a tug of war with the snooze button on your phone, which is followed by checking your phone for notifications that are patiently waiting for us on the notification bar. Social Media is the new form of addiction, at least for the younger generation. People have become accustomed to frequently checking their phones for social media updates and notifications. Everyone wants every moment to be shared on the social media. Even when going to a café or a restaurant, we still check our Facebook account and diligently upload a picture of the food before eating it: for others to like and, hopefully, share. We feel almost obliged to make our social media profiles as perfect as possible because we believe that it is the display of our life and the persona; the better parts anyways.
The two giants that facilitate the process for us are Twitter and Facebook, the latter perhaps being a more trendy beast. Founded more than a decade ago, Facebook is a free social networking website that allows everyone to create an account and upload images, videos, send messages and stay connected with other members. The purpose of Facebook can be seen as keeping people in touch with their friends and family. The service helps you share and express what matters to you most. Also Facebook is a platform for marketing your business through Facebook pages and Facebook ads.
Twitter is a social networking service that allows users to interact and communicate through messages or posts called "tweets". These tweets are restricted to 140 characters only, which make them precise and to the point. Only users who have signed up for a Twitter account can post tweets while others can just read them. Twitter is also an online news service as it has all the breaking news and sports updates ready for users, making the service more famous among many demographics of people. Twitter's value proposition is appealing on both the emotional and the intellectual levels. Its mission statement reads: "To give everyone the power to create and share ideas and information instantly without any barriers".
Nine Reasons Why Twitter is Better than Facebook
Soon after its inception in 2006, Twitter became a serious challenge to Facebook, becoming one of the top-ten most visited websites in the world in 2013. Since then, the company struggled to maintain its breathtaking growth rate, with a lot of investors cashing out of its stock soon after the IPO (also in 2013). Yet amid simmering cynicism about the company's future prospects, there are at least 9 reasons why the average user could benefit from Twitter in ways no other social network (including Facebook) can offer.
Celebrities Within Reach
One of the most interesting reasons is that on Twitter you can reach your favorite celebrities easily. Celebrities use Twitter more than they use Facebook. Facebook does have official Facebook pages for celebrities but original content on posts is always seen on Twitter. Twitter is more open and you can share your ideas there and have access to more viewers. Celebrities let their social media managers do the Facebook posting while they do the tweeting themselves.
Online News Updates
Twitter is also an online news website. Twitter focuses on breaking news and this is the reason why many journalists like Twittering more as compared to Facebook. Whether is a celebrity gossip or a new iPhone launch, Twitter will have it first for their users.
Account flexibility
Another point goes to Twitter because of its flexibility. Users can set up accounts for football clubs, artwork, literature, news or pretty much anything they can think of, from cafés to countries. Twitter is less structured than Facebook, which gives more flexibility. One can use Twitter for jobs search, browsing news, control apps, find answers to questions and post a question for a wide audience, bookmark links and more.
The Hashtag Kingdom
Twitter is the origin of hashtag, and even though Facebook also uses the hashtag its power on Twitter is more dominant. Hashtags are used to find information on a certain topic or even join a local real time conversation or debate. Hashtags are just like your friends; they are there for you both when you need them and when you completely forget about them.
Hashtag-News blend
As mentioned before, Twitter is famous for news as well as sports updates. Put the news and hashtag together and it becomes an amazing tool for watching your favorite sports and reviews. From football world cup to the Olympics, from BBC to Guardian, Twitter is always busy with action, which is something Facebook lacks in.
Twitter is Quicker
Twitter is simple, intuitive and fast, and the character limitation has made it more to the point. Instead of posting irrelevant, long posts you can simple tweet the main point to start a conversation. Twitter gets stuff done faster. And people love more mobility: especially in good thought.
No Boundaries for the Unknown
Facebook is limited to friends only. If you have 100 friends on your Facebook account, you will only be viewing posts from them while Twitter will show you tweets according to your interests along with the links you follow. So more newsfeed means much more information and entertainment.
To the Point
The one reason people hated Twitter for before has become an important reason why people love it now: the tweets are restricted to only 140 characters. That is so to the point. This allows you to read fast and make up your mind even faster. Do I like this? One line is usually enough to tell: the second one may not even be there. And how about those nuggets of brilliancy, the aphorisms of modern era? A lot of good tweets could make it to song lyrics, and a lot of good song lyrics can be quoted as superb tweets.
Forget About Your Game Score
Unlike Facebook, Twitter does not have communities or groups and no games either. Facebook newsfeed is always filled up with group gossips and your friend's game score. Honestly, no one is bothered about your game score. Such posts fill up the newsfeed and make it less interesting.
Summing it up
The main idea of the article was to identify the reasons why Twitter is better than Facebook. Obviously, neither is better than the other: both are social media leviathans offering awesome features that appeal to most people on many different levels, so at the end of the day your preference becomes a matter of taste. But recently Twitter was getting a lot of negative publicity (which some people trace to the weak performance of its stock which has lost a lot of its value since the IPO), so it is important to remind about Twitter's advantages to the world that's growing Facebook-skewed. After all, you could be missing on so many awesome things if the only social media profile you have is that on Facebook. Seriously: give Twitter a try, if you haven't yet.
You could be pleasantly surprised.

Dhaka: Thanks to the unusual happenings in recent weeks, theres much riding on Team Indias tour of Bangladesh. And, so, its unlikely that captain Rahul Dravid will have many quiet moments to himself. On Wednesday morning, he interacted with the media and, then, briefly spoke to The Telegraph separately.
The following are excerpts
On the sting operation by a TV channel back home
Im not going to react to sting operations... I got as much support as I could (from teammates) during the World Cup... I was happy with the team I had.
On everything that has happened after Indias shock first-round exit in the World Cup
I step back and see things in perspective... Thats how I play my cricket... I suppose its part and parcel of the game...
On whether the contracts issue is a distraction
No... Theres a simple formula for us players we love the game and want to play it. Its not that the boys are constantly thinking (about the contracts)... Were focused on cricket... What needs to be taken care of will be taken care of.
On the spirit within the team
What happened in the World Cup was disappointing, but the spirit is back... The spirit was good during the conditioning camp in Calcutta and its good here.
On the focus still being on Indias poor World Cup performance
I dont look at just one tournament or event... International cricket doesnt begin or end with one series... Its an ongoing process...
On Ravi Shastris appointment as (interim) cricket manager
As he himself told us, there cant be magic in a few days... Hes very experienced and has a lot of knowledge... Has played a lot and has been doing commentary for years... He has been sharing knowledge... These are still early days... However, coaches cant play and players have to stand up and take responsibility.
On Venkatesh Prasad and Robin Singh being part of the support staff
Its about preparing the boys in a manner that the best is got out of them... One cant suddenly change the way one plays.
The support staffs work isnt rocket science.
On rookie Manoj Tiwary being ruled out of the ODIs
Its very sad... For this to happen on somebodys first tour... We feel for him... He has the Board and the teams support... Of course, hes young and is going to get opportunities... Right now, he has to focus on recovering... He has accepted the situation in a mature manner.
On his one-on-one with Tiwary
I said hes young and is in good hands (physio John Gloster)... I added that he must remain positive and work towards getting fit. I like his attitude.
On Bangladesh
Theyve done well in the World Cup... Now, weve got more first-hand information about their players...
On explosive opener Tamim Iqbal
Hes good... He played well (a dashing 51) against us in the World Cup and took us by surprise... If its his day, he could play another innings like that or we could get him (quickly).
Finally, on Brian Laras comment that Rahul Dravid is the one player I could go and watch. Come to think of it, if I wanted someone batting for my life, it would be Rahul
(Smiles) Im honoured... Thats all.

Looking Back at Star Wars Posters Through the Decades
Originals and alternates: which ones are better?
There has to be some pretty intense pressure that comes with designing a Star Wars poster. You're basically making something that will hang in every little kid's (and Comic Book Guy's) room for years to come. It will be a collectable; it will be scrutinized. This week, along with the much-anticipated trailer, we've seen the release two new posters for Star Wars: The Force Awakens—the teaser poster and the new IMAX alternate poster.

I didn't know what was going to happen between Doug and I or where the relationship may lead to next; but I did know that I was going to need to be careful.
I went in the house and cleaned up to meet with Donny at Joe's. While I was getting ready, my dad stopped at my door and knocked.
"You busy?" he asked.
"No, come in."
He took a seat at my desk while I finished getting ready.
"I just wanted to check and see how you were doing."
"Okay I guess. What were you and Doug talking about?"
"He stopped by to apologize to your mother and me."
"For what"
"I'm not sure exactly. He seemed rather distracted. I'm guessing it was because of his father but I'm not sure. That is what I wanted to ask you about."
He was quiet for a moment and then asked if I was going to tell him what was going on.
"I don't know dad. Doug has some real issues - stuff that existed before he and I even got together - and our relationship isn't making things any better."
"I know that John was always hard on Deanna and Doug, but I guess I didn't think that he was physically abusive with them."
No one realized it.
"Listen Jason, I know you think you have this all figured out and I know I said that your mother and I would support you - but Doug just doesn't seem... right."
"You mean unstable?"
"To put it mildly - yes"
"Believe me, I know"
"So what is your plan?"
"My plan"
"I don't have the slightest idea. I'm winging this, if you haven't noticed. "
"Can I make a suggestion?"
I cringed at the thought and expected him to tell me to walk away from it all, but he didn't.
"Just be careful."
"I will."
"No, I mean - be careful. I don't trust him Jason, and I don't want you ending up in a situation you can't handle."
"I don't want to get hurt again."
"Okay then."
The relief I sensed from him was fleeting at best.
"Listen, do you need some money for tonight?"
"I could use a fifty?"
"How about two tens and a five"
"That'll work." I said with a smile.
He handed me the cash and gave me a hug.
"I love you Jason."
"I love you too dad."
I finished getting dressed and left the house. When I pulled into Joe's, I noticed Donny's pick-up parked across the street. Inside I saw him sitting with Jess and Carissa.
"Hey guys, I didn't know this was a group thing."
Donny told me Carissa and Jess were going to see the movie too.
"That's cool."
"I already ordered."
"Pepperoni & Sausage with extra onion and cheese?"
"Would I order anything else?"
"Onion? Gross! Who eats onions?" Carissa said.
Donny leaned over to her and in a breathy voice said, 'I do' and blew in her face with a little laugh.
"You are disgusting!" she laughed back.
The four of us talked about work and other bullshit that was going on with each of us this summer. I of course kept the drama between Doug and I out of the topic list - for obvious reasons; at least until Jess mentioned him.
"Jason, how is your friend Doug doing?"
"What? Doug? Oh, fine I guess - why?"
"I heard his dad beat the hell out of him and he was in the hospital."
"Yeah, I heard that too." I glanced at Donny who looked like a deer in headlights.
"Any idea why?"
"I don't know."
Carissa said that his dad freaked out about someone he was fucking around with - some guy.
I almost choked on my soda.
"Some guy?"
"Yeah - apparently he's gay and his father freaked out."
"How do you know he is gay?"
"Kyle told us."
"Kyle told you that?"
"I know - what a waste of a perfectly good man!" Jess interjected.
I was at a loss for words until Donny spoke up.
"Well, we each have our vices don't we Jess." as he jabbed her in the side.
"What vices?"
"Jess - you are a total slut! That's what." Carissa said.
"I am not a slut. I just like dick."
"Yeah, we know." Donny said.
"I think EVERYONE knows" Carissa added.
We all laughed, Carissa told her she was still a slut and Jess laughed.
"Besides, it's not like I'm standing on a street corner or anything."
"You should. It would pay for your college tuition", Carissa told her.
Jess stood up and lifted her shirt over her breasts, "I mean seriously – I know guys would pay for this if I asked for it, but I'm just not that kind of girl – yet."
When I looked at Jess, I also noticed Donny looking not at Jess, but at me.
Was he trying to gauge my reaction?
"You're one to talk Carissa - what about you and Kyle?"
That was a surprise! I didn't even realize that Carissa and Kyle were seeing each other.
"Kyle and I have an arrangement - that is all."
"Wait," I asked, "you and Kyle have what kind of an arrangement?"
"An arrangement - that's all. When I need some I call him, and when he needs some he calls me - that's it."
"So he's your little fuck buddy?" Donny asked.
"Well, I wouldn't say little." Jess added.
"OH!" Donny and I both shouted.
"God Jess, did you fuck him too?"
"Not recently."
Jess laughed, as did the rest of us.
Our pizza arrived and we devoured it before leaving for the theatre. We saw a moving about a girl who had slept with a bunch of different guys and decided that she must have missed 'Mister Right' somewhere along the way and went back through all her old beau's with the help of an incredibly hot neighbor. You probably know the film.
Afterwards, as we were walking to our cars, Jess mentioned that she could use a swim.
"I have the key for the pool" Carissa told us, "You guys want to go?"
"Sounds good to me," Donny added.
As we drove to the pool, the girls in Jess' car, Donny and I in mine - Donny said to me, "You know Jess is going to try something with you once we get in there."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because I know Jess and I know she likes you."
"She does?"
"I just thought I should warn you."
"So what are you going to do if she tries something?"
"Let's just see what happens, okay?"
"Alright - but don't say I didn't warn you. She can be very persuasive."
The girls arrived first and rushed to the door to unlock it. Donny and I took our time walking in. We wanted to make sure that no one was around. The last thing I needed was to be busted for breaking and entering.
When Donny and I got to the pool deck, the girls were just stripping off their underwear.
"Come on guys! No clothes allowed!" and they jumped into the deep end.
"Oh shit." Donny said softly.
"I thought you were expecting this?"
"Not exactly."
He was visibly nervous. "I'm not getting naked, are you?"
"Why? You have nothing to be ashamed of. I've seen you naked before."
"Ugh, it's just..."
"I just shaved my nuts tonight."
"Why would you do that?" I asked.
"I wanted to clean it up down there."
"For who"
He looked at me but didn't say anything.
"Well, it's too late now," I said as I removed my shirt.
"WHEW! YEAH! TAKE IT OFF BABY!" Jess shouted from the water's edge.
When I dropped my shorts and underwear I heard her say, "Damn, get a load of Jason."
"Who would have thought?" Carissa replied.
"Come on Donny, just take them off," I said to him.
He did, and I must say that I was impressed by his 'man-scaping'.
"Does it look bad?"
"Um... no... You did a REALLY good job!"
"Did you mean to take it all off?"
"No, I left a little up here" as he indicated a small patch a few inches below his navel.
"Oh... yeah - it looks good."
"I powdered to - so it would be fresh."
I couldn't help but wonder why he had gone to all the trouble; and for whom. Donny and I walked to the edge and dove in. The water was cool and felt exhilarating in the evening heat. When I came to the surface, I noticed the girls far off under the diving boards. They were swimming up, grabbing the boards with their outstretched arms and hanging there - exposing their breasts for us.
"Donny, I don't know about this."
"Neither do I."
"What should we do?"
"Just go along with it."
"Okay, but I'm not fucking either one of them," I told him.
"Me neither"
I turned back and looked at him oddly. "You're not?"
"Not if Carissa is fucking Kyle and Jess is fucking everyone else!"
"Hmm, good point."
Donny and I took to swimming at the far edge of the deep end while the girls splashed around.
"What's the matter boys; are you chicken?"
We tread water next to each other as they continued their frivolity. Jess finally got out, walked around the back of the board, climbed up, ran, and dove in. She went under and we couldn't see her anymore.
It was too dark.
After a few seconds I felt a pair of hands grab me around the hips and felt Jess' face push into my crotch. The touch of her hands caught me off guard. I drew my knees up in surprise, hitting her in the jaw, and when I pushed back, I must have caught her in the stomach. She came to the surface quickly, coughing and spitting out water.
"FUCK JASON! What was that for?" she yelled at me.
"Jesus Jess - I didn't know you were coming at me."
"Are you alright?" I asked her.
"No! That fucking hurt!" she said as she coughed. She was also holding her hand over her nose.
"Shit Jess, your nose!" Donny said.
Blood was trickling down her upper lip and into the water.
"FUCK!" she hollered again.
"Jess I'm sorry" I swam up to her to help; Donny was right next to me. We both helped her to the side, where she crawled out and pinched the end of her nose.
Carissa ran around on the side of the pool deck and sat next to her.
"It's not stopping - we should go." Carissa said.
"Okay..." Donny got out and sat next to Jess. I stayed in the water, treading.
"I'm so sorry Jess"
"It's okay"
I felt awful. Donny stood up and helped Jess stand. All three of them were naked standing on the pool side. I noticed Jess eyeing Donny's dick - it was cleanly shaven, and shrunk down by the cold water.
"What's happening there?" Jess asked with her nose pinched - indicating Donny's dick.
She reached out with her other hand and touched the tip of his penis with her index finger. He flinched.
"Oh, I..."
"Man-scaping? Really?" Carissa said.
"Yeah..." he replied.
I tried not to laugh; yet the girls seemed thoroughly impressed.
"Nice job - it looks good."
"Yeah" Carissa told him.
Donny started to help Jess walk around the pool and Carissa told him that she had her.
"We are going to go, but you guys can stay if you want - just flip the lock on the outside door when you leave. It will lock behind you."
Donny stood there, naked, on the side of the pool; his back towards me. While Carissa and Jess picked up their clothes, I couldn't take my eyes of Donny's perfectly round ass.
"Are you sure you'll be okay?" Donny asked them.
"We'll be fine. We'll see you later." Carissa told us.
Then they were gone.
Donny stood there for a few seconds before coming back to the side of the pool, sitting down on the edge, and dropping his feet in the water. I swam over to the edge and held on to the side next to him.
"You okay?" I asked.
"Yeah, I just feel bad."
"About Jess? She'll be fine."
"Yeah, I suppose. Did you mean to do that?"
"Do what?"
"Push her away like that?"
"No... I mean... I don't think so."
"Are you sure?"
"What are you saying?"
"I don't know... I mean... now that you like guys."
"Donny, it doesn't mean that I would hit Jess on purpose."
"So you're bi-sexual then?"
I let out a deep sigh, "why do you have to put a label on it?"
"Why shouldn't I?" he said gruffly.
"Are you angry with me?"
"No..." he kicked out some water and looked up to the sky. I could tell something was bothering him, it was most likely me - but I didn't want to start an argument with him.
He leaned back on his arms and spread his legs on the edge of the pool. I reached out and touched his leg.
"Hey, what is it?"
He wouldn't look at me, so I swam in front of him, treading water, looking straight between his legs, up his abdomen and chest to his face. I took a sip of the pool water and spit it up at him to get his attention.
"Are you going to talk to me or what?"
I saw him look down at me, his deep blue eyes fixed on mine. He didn't say anything and just held my gaze. And then I saw it. He started to breathe more slowly and deeply. He saw me look down his body and when the head of his dick slipped out of its foreskin I looked back up at him.
His face was expressionless.
"You remember what I asked you the other day when I took you home Jason?"
It was happening.
I felt it inside me and it was real; like someone starting a fire in my belly and it radiating down my legs, up my chest, out my nipples and arms.
I was getting horny.
Super horny
I asked him if he was serious, and he told me he was. So I swam forward and put my hands on his knees.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes Jason, I'm sure."
I looked down his body again and then up into his eyes. He was shivering.
"Are you cold?"
"A little"
"Don't be"
He let out a heavy sigh, "okay".
I pulled myself up onto his thighs, until his knees were in my underarms. I felt his lower legs grip my sides, his course leg hair tickling my buttocks. His dick was inches from my face, and growing. I looked at his freshly shaven loins again and then into his eyes again.
"Did you do all this for me?"
He smiled shyly.
"I never thought you would really want me to do this"
"Me either."
I leaned my head in, opened my mouth, extended my tongue, and touched the bottom of his shriveled nut sack. The touch of my warm tongue to his cold flesh made his dick jump and he shuttered in front of me.
When I did it again, I gripped him with my lips and sucked his scrotum into my mouth. His sack was empty, because of the cold water, but after a few more tugs, they began to descend and soon I had his two huge nuts rolling around on top of my tongue.
I looked up at him and he kept his eyes on me the entire time.
His dick had managed to grow and climb up until it was nearly resting on the crevice between his stomach and thigh. The head of his cock was huge and purple in color.
I engulfed his nuts until my lower lip was grazing his perineum. I grabbed his ass from the sides and pulled my face up until my nose made contact with the midpoint of his shaft.
He watched me with awe.
I flipped his dick to the other side of his body with my nose and it leaned over; but then stood straight up, hard and pulsing.
He let out a heavy sigh, "...now what..."
I dropped his nuts from my mouth, "...what do you want?"
"Surprise me..."
I smiled at him, "...you've been planning this haven't you."
"Uh huh..." he said with a grin.
I smiled back, "...are you ready for this?"
"Show me what you've got..."
I turned my head away and tried not to laugh - he was trying really hard to be seductive - or at least I thought he was.
I extended my tongue and flicked it back and forth across the base of his shaft where his scrotum connected with his dick, and then I spread my tongue wide and ran it up the underside until I reached the soft place beneath the crown, where I flicked my tongue back and forth again. I flattened my tongue, ran it up over his slit, where I caught the head with my upper lip, and slowly went down on him.
In a soft slow voice he said, "... oh... shit..."
Donny wasn't as big as Doug, which was good. It meant I didn't have to strain to pleasure him. He was at least six inches long, maybe six and a half, and he was thick.
Once I reached the base, where he had left that small patch of curly brown pubic hair, I slid my wide tongue back and forth across the underside again while he was inside me, then I pulled in, sucked down, and drew back off of him until just the head was left in my mouth. From there, I flicked the tip and his slit while I felt him squirm.
With him just barely inside me, I looked up at him, his head was back, his mouth open, his nipples erect, he stomach drawn in, his heart beating just below his sternum, the hair on his chest and stomach wet and flat against his tanned skin. Then I went right back down and did it again and again.
No hands - all lips, tongue, and mouth.
"Oh fuck Jason, you are really good at this..." he said with heavy breath.
"Mmm Hmm..."
I worked my best friends cock with all the skill and technique I could conjure. I wanted him to enjoy this - at least as much as I was. Part of me, since I had discovered this within myself, had wanted to be with Donny this way. The fact that he was actually letting me do this to him filled me with such enormous pleasure. Below the surface of the water, my cock was rock hard, swollen beyond anything I've ever felt before, and begging for attention. So much that it ached to the root.
Many minutes passed while I continued to suck Donny's dick, when I felt his ass start to flex in unison with my sucking, I figured he was getting close to coming. But I never expected what was going to happen next.
"Jason..." heavy breath, "...I want to do you at the same time..." another heavy breath, "...I want us to come together..."
I drew back one last time and asked, "What?"
"Get out of the pool... hurry..." he said.
So I did, I pushed up and rose out of the water in front of him, he scooted back and watched as my body came out of the water. When he saw my engorged cock spring from the surface - he gasped.
"Not what you were expecting?"
"Uh... no..."
"It doesn't bite", I said with a smile, "...so how do you want to do this?"
"Um... you tell me? I'm new at this."
"Don't bullshit me Donny - you know exactly what you want."
I lay next to him, my head to his thighs, his to mine. When I took him in my mouth again, he wasn't as full. The site of my dick, in comparison to his, had distracted him enough that he lost part of his erection.
Yet, once my lips surrounded him again he surged back.
I felt his hot breath against my stomach, and soon after, he gently grasped my cock and suckled at the tip.
I pulled back just enough to tell him, "...just take it slow..."
"Uh... okay" he said nervously
"You don't have to it unless you want to..."
But I really wanted him to.
So I went back on him, more slowly this time. I knew it wouldn't take me long, but I did want us to come together.
He struggled at first, I felt his teeth graze the topside of my cock, and bounce along the shaft about half way down. That was as far as he could go before I heard him gag.
"Easy buddy... take it slow" I told him.
"This isn't as easy as I thought."
Slowly over the next several minutes he began to relax more and more until he was pumping me with his fist and mouth simultaneously - and it was good enough for me.
He was moaning as he worked, enjoying our mutual stimulation.
It wasn't long before he was flexing his ass again and began pumping my mouth. I knew it was coming. I opened my legs wide and started to take small jabs at his mouth. He gagged again, but continued on.
And then I was overcome. I grabbed Donny's fuzzy ass and pulled his groin into my face and swallowed what I could of him. He let out a loud "MMMM!!!!" as I also jabbed him in the back of the throat with my dick.
He released me just long enough to tell me not to stop and that he was close.
"I want you to come in my mouth" he told me.
I was, again, surprised by my best friend's wishes - but I was ready.
When his cock began to surge I decided to let him have it.
With a loud grunt, I came first, and when I did, I heard him start to cough around my cock.
His mouth opened wide and he gagged hard.
I reached down with my right hand and pulled his hair until I was deep in his mouth, filling him with my nectar.
Then with as much force as I could manage, I drew back and pulled every last ounce of juice from my best friends nuts.
He convulsed and shook while I worked him to exhaustion.
I kept my hand on his head, and when I felt his touch mine, I knew we were attuned to each other.
Both of us taking each other's seed.
I swallowed every bit of his sour milk that I could. It was thick, pungent, and strong.
I gave Donny more than he could handle and he was coughing and spitting it out as I continued to blast him with long volley's of come even after he released me.
"Oh god! Stop..."
One last pull and I let him go, "...how was that..."
"That was a lot of fucking come!"
I laughed, "I should have warned you."
He rolled over on his back and coughed some more, turned his head and spit me out. I sat up on my elbow and looked down at him, my cock slowly getting flaccid next to his arm. The pavement was dark with my juice.
Donny caught his breath and sat up on his elbows to look at me.
"Well, is it what you expected?" I asked.
"It was better. You suck dick WAY better than a girl ever has "
We both had a little laugh before lying back on the pavement and looking up at the night sky. There was no moon out, but the stars were vibrant.
I felt Donny's hand begin to lightly stroke my thigh.
"You okay," I asked him.
"I'm better than okay."
I smiled and let him have his moment. The last thing I wanted was for him to freak out. Part of me was waiting for the reality of what happened to catch up with him and I feared what he might say or do once it did.
But for now, I just waited in quiet bliss.

Amazing Dance You Defiantly Shock after watching this Video:
Indian classical dance styles, like ballet, are often in dramatic form, so that there is a similar complementarity between narrative expression and "pure" dance. In this case, however, the two are separately defined, though not always separately performed. The rhythmic elements, which are abstract and technical, are known as nritta. Both this and expressive dance (nritya), though, are closely tied to the rhythmic system (tala). Teachers have adapted the spoken rhythmic mnemonic system called bol to the needs of dancers.Japanese classical dance-theatre styles such as Kabuki and Noh, like Indian dance-drama, distinguish between narrative and abstract dance productions. The three main categories of kabuki are jidai-mono (historical), sewa-mono (domestic) and shosagoto (dance pieces). Somewhat similarly, Noh distinguishes between Geki Noh, based around the advancement of plot and the narration of action, and Furyū Noh, dance pieces involving acrobatics, stage properties, multiple characters and elaborate stage action.

ADG-Europe teater och TNT Britain presenterar Much Ado About Nothing av Shakespeare på engelska
MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING is perhaps Shakespeare's most perfect exploration of love. Through the trials and tribulations of a quartet of lovers and their friends and enemies we see love in all its absurdity and splendour, in all its tragedy and stupidity. We are all fools for love, ever were and ever will be.
But that folly is essential to our humanity and without love we are mean and selfish and allied only to death. Shakespeare explores these great themes with a lightness of touch remarkable even for him, and creates in Benedict and Beatrice two of the most charming and spirited lovers in classical literature. Besides which the plot is almost perfect - combining high drama, great jokes and fabulous poetry in a
dizzy sequence of scenes that leaves the audience torn between tears and laughter. If this is MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING then our lives and loves are indeed nothing - for this play lays life bare, then has the grace to laugh.

What You Can Learn From Benjamin Franklin
Eight often overlooked, yet simple, tactics to prevent fraud in your firm.
October 7, 2010
When Benjamin Franklin wrote, "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure," he probably wasn't thinking about fraud. But, that adage certainly applies, especially to your employees. The problem all executives face is they can't identify those few rotten apples. What's worse is the tendency to let our guards down with long-term dedicated employees who've toiled diligently, often forgoing vacations in order to keep the company running smoothly. And that is precisely where the greatest risk lies. The biggest losses come from thefts made by long-term trusted employees when appropriate controls and best practices are ignored.
Bad Practices to Avoid
What follows is a list of bad practices that should be avoided at all costs. Allowing these practices simply makes it easier for fraud to flourish.
1. Don't let your guard down around long-term trusted employees. Use the same tight internal controls, segregation of duties and vacation policies for all your employees.
2. Returning checks to requisitioners is not an inefficient payment practice. This demonstrates poor internal controls and is a favorite with employees stealing from their employers.
3. Rush checks (sometimes referred to as ASAP) checks are a breeding ground for crooks. Often the appropriate backup is missing and the item is paid for twice. Experienced crooks know if they call up a company and raise a stink they are likely to get a check "rushed" to them, even if they do not deserve it.
4. Petty-cash boxes are an invitation to trouble. Unless there is a very compelling reason, get rid of them. They are no longer necessary.
5. Mandate that managers review every T&E (travel and expense) report they approve. A few companies have gone so far as to terminate managers who have approved clearly fraudulent or inappropriate expenditures. Others are making it part of the annual performance review.
6. Set card limits. When using purchase cards, set judicious card limits in relation to the need of the person given the card, not the person's title.
7. Canceling p-cards. Immediately cancel the p-card and/or T&E card of any employee whose employment has been terminated regardless of who initiated the change.
8. Insist that every employee take his or her vacation. At least five of those days should be taken consecutively. And, during this time, the employee should not perform any of his or her duties from home.
While these steps will not completely end fraud in your organization, they will make it more difficult for those few employees who are tempted to steal. After all, it is your employees who know your organization best and can figure out where the weak links are.
Mary S. Schaeffer is the author of over a dozen business books includingTravel & Entertainment Best Practices (John Wiley & Sons) and Fraud in Accounts Payable: How to Prevent It (John Wiley & Sons). She is the publisher of Accounts Payable Now & Tomorrow newsletter, a monthly publication for executives concerned about internal controls and cost control in their payment function, writes a monthly newsletter, a free weekly ezine e-AP News, speaks at accounts payable webinars, seminars and conferences and directs the organization's consulting practice.
