News Headlines (427) 26 November - 27 November 2013




ONLINE TODAY

► 26 November 2013 : Today you will have a great chance to turn up the heat in your romantic relationship and make things sizzle like they have never sizzled before! All you have to do is think about what will make your partner smile and then do it ten times bigger than you normally would. If you are not in a romantic relationship right now, you can still make a few changes. Surprise the people who are closest to you with your big gestures and elaborate presentations. Whatever you do today, do it big!

Try to do something healthy today -- healthier than your usual routines, that is! Even if you're a gym-addicted vegan, you can still find some new way to make yourself even fitter.

It's good for you to feel confident about your chances going into an upcoming challenge, but it would be unwise to think that you will walk away with a victory too easily. Do not sell your competition short. The only thing less helpful than underestimating your opponent is overestimating yourself. So don't rush ahead thinking this will be a cakewalk. You have to have a healthy respect for every contest you enter. Otherwise, what is the value in winning it?

► 27 November 2013 : This isn't a good time to send any mixed messages. The people you're dealing with at the moment need clear, concise statements from you and if you can't seem to say what's on your mind, write it down. Using smaller words might do the trick, especially if you have a tendency to try to impress people with a big vocabulary. It's imperative that you get your point across, which means it's not the time to show off.

► ENTERTAINMENT : The Cleveland Captives What Really Happened? BBC crime documentary kidnapping 2013. Two teenage girls and a 20-year-old woman are kidnapped on the same stretch of road in Cleveland, Ohio. For 10 years they are missing presumed dead, but in May 2013, miraculously, they are discovered alive, one of them with a six-year old daughter. Their captor, Ariel Castro, is now charged with four counts of kidnapping and three counts of rape. He may even face the death penalty if prosecutors successfully argue that he forcibly caused his captors to miscarry their unborn babies.

Rick Edwards investigates how the victims could disappear from the same area and be held prisoners in the basement of a nearby house with no-one knowing anything about it for a decade. He goes to the address in Seymour Avenue to speak to neighbours and relatives of the accused, interviews people who responded to a woman's cry for help and hears how they made the amazing discovery.

Featuring 3-D graphics of the house, showing where the women were kept and how they were moved around to avoid being discovered by visitors, this documentary attempts to provide the most complete picture yet of a case that has shocked the world.

News Headlines (423) 18 November 2013




ONLINE TODAY

► You need to write out nearly everything today -- it may feel as if you're living on email! It's a great time to communicate clearly and let colleagues know what's really going on. [What is going on is, I'm in love with him - and I do not deny I want to feel him with me, although only for a few days - but I do not know how to end my relationship with him. I can not leave him, and I also can not go to him. I better be a silent stone forever. So, no need to send a letter on a rock, you know!]

You may have a tendency to talk really quickly to say what's on your mind before you forget it, but you'll get a better response if you speak slowly and stick to the point as much as possible. You have a lot running through your mind, but try to be conscious of your delivery. The most important thing to do is keep your audience in mind -- tailor your style to their needs. Though communicating with people is your forte, try not to talk too fast. I told you, I'd be a rock. So, no need to talk to a rock, you know!

► UAE Teams Practice Aerobatic Flying Before Dubai Airshow 2013. The 13th Dubai Airshow will be held from November 17 to 21 at the Dubai World Center. This year the show includes a training performance of two aerobatic flying teams from the United Arab Emirates Air Force.

One team named The Knights, established in 2010 and consisting of 10 planes, trained with the Italian Frecce Tricolori flying team. The planes are painted in gold and black, representing desert and oil, and red, green and white on the bottom—the colors of the national flag of the UAE.

The British Royal Air Force's Red Arrows—one of the most celebrated flying teams in the world—will also be joining the aerobatic performances. The Dubai Airshow has been held bi-annually, since 1987. Published on Nov 15, 2013 by NTDTV


I do not wonder why Jews are smart, ... but the Arabs ... why they can be rich when their mindset is still primitive? Ehehhee .., blah! Stop your hypocrisy, Saudi Arabia! Despite being one of the richest countries in the world, and thus you are able to send most of your citizens to developing countries for spree-loving and fornicate on the pretext of Misyar marriage, but I know you're a royal dictatorship with the Wahhabi sect who have no shame to let millions of your people live in poverty and destitute.

Population growth rates and welfare programs in your kingdom failed to follow the increasing number of population of 6 million in 1970 to 28 million in 2012. There are thousands of billionaires in your country, but they never care about the fate of people who deliberately impoverished and they are just busy accumulate their wealth and build your country's image by creating ethnic and sectarian killing machines. Your empire is able to hide poverty very well and neatly, your elite and your royals do not ever want to see the plight of the poor. Many hungry people are ignored. 2-4 million your indigenous people living under acute poverty line.

We know a large amount of money from the oil kingdom and taxes just end up in the pockets of your royal families through a network of nepotism, corruption and comfortable government contracts. Indeed, you are the biggest oil exporter in the world, with the country accounting of black gold exports about 90 percent of the country, but do you think we do not know that your wealth is only spent to build the palaces of princes and individuals to incubate international terrorism such as al-Qaeda and the Taliban to be sent to Muslim countries which have a different understanding of Wahhabism,hm?

► Now is a good time to look through the attic for valuables -- your eye for antiques and collectibles is sharper than ever. Whether you're selling or buying, you should get the best value. You're just going to love today's astrological blend of energies. Permanence and stability are in the air, and promises made will undoubtedly be promises kept. So, just this once, instead of automatically expecting people to go back on their word, you can expect that they won't. In fact, you and a dear one can even establish a deeper trust if you have that conversation you've been putting off. Oh, go ahead. It's about time, isn't it?



Hmm ... yes,less is more, and also one important thing: a willingness.

* Part 3- To expand Khamenei's grip on the economy, Iran stretched its laws
* About the series:
A team of Reuters reporters in the Middle East led by London-based senior correspondent Steve Stecklow spent six months examining how Setad, a little-known organization controlled by Iran's Supreme Leader, grew into one of the most powerful property and corporate empires in Iran.

Their reporting began with an internal organizational chart. One branch was labeled "Real Estate and Properties Organization." They soon learned that many of the properties Setad controlled had been confiscated from Iranians, whom the reporters began tracking and interviewing.

They also discovered that Setad regularly sold off seized properties. Using Iranian auction websites and newspapers, they documented how in May alone, Setad had auctioned nearly 300 properties.

Setad's financial dealings are secret. But through internal Setad documents, interviews with former employees, data published by the Tehran Stock Exchange and on Iranian company websites, and information from the U.S. Treasury Department, the reporters were able to assemble a picture of Setad's vast corporate portfolio.

"Thank you for your perception! I like your romantic side, even if I do not always comment and I'm glad that you're in my circle of friends."
(Courtesies by: Wolfgang A. Gerhardt)

Wolfgang A.Gerhardt : May be you like this Sunday collage

Cisca Zarmansyah : Before today, there never was a person doing this to me. You create a simple matter to look special. This is a special thing for me.

Cisca Zarmansyah : Thank you. I love it. I love you, my friend. ♥

CieL- FreYa Ceastle : Hmm, he's so nice...















"I am me.
In all the world,
there is no one else exactly like me.
Everything that comes out of me
is authentically mine,
because I alone chose it --
I own everything about me:
my body,
my feelings,
my mouth,
my voice,
all my actions,
whether they be to others or myself.
I own my fantasies,
my dreams,
my hopes,
my fears.
I own my triumphs and successes,
all my failures and mistakes.
Because I own all of me,
I can become intimately acquainted with me.
By so doing,
I can love me
and be friendly with all my parts.
I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me,
and other aspects that I do not know
-- but as long as I am friendly
and loving to myself,
I can courageously and hopefully
look for solutions
to the puzzles and ways
to find out more about me.
However I look and sound,
whatever I say and do,
and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time
is authentically me.
If later some parts of how I looked,
sounded,
thought,
and felt
turn out to be unfitting,
I can discard that which is unfitting,
keep the rest,
and invent something new
for that which I discarded.
I can see,
hear,
feel,
think,
say, and do.
I have the tools to survive,
to be close to others,
to be productive,
and to make sense
and order out of the world of people
and things outside of me.
I own me,
and therefore,
I can engineer me.
I am me,
and I am okay."
