RAHUL Gandhi is more than two hours late. Yet still they wait for him: the young men pressed against the makeshift bamboo security railings, the elderly sitting on the dusty ground further back, the late crowded onto rooftop terraces. In the rural hamlet of Sahaswan, they have come to hear the man they believe will be the next prime minister of the world's largest democracy. ''I come to you. Why? Because I meet you, I speak with you, I take food in your house and drink the well's dirty water. Then if I get ill due to drinking the dirty water of your well, I can realise what problems a poor person can suffer. ''I come to you because I see the country's strength here. I see the power of youth, the future that can transform our country.'' Despite his claims of kinship, Rahul Gandhi's background could not have been more different to those he is addressing. He is the scion of the Nehru Gandhi dynasty, the family that has provided India with its prime minister for 37 of its 64 years as an independent nation. This man is destined, in most Indian eyes, to follow his father, his grandmother and his great grandfather to the highest office. But while Rahul Gandhi has had every benefit his privilege and profile could bring, he has also carried their burdens. This was a young man who lost his grandmother at age 14 to assassins' bullets, and his father seven years later to a suicide bomber. He had to leave Harvard because he couldn't be kept safe. To this day, a security man with a machinegun stands at the base of the podium whenever he gives a speech. His critics have labelled him ''the reluctant prince'', and say he is unwilling to take on any real responsibility (currently Rahul's major role is organising the youth wing of the Congress party). A steady, rather than inspirational, orator, he has neither his great grandfather's brilliant intellect nor his grandmother's force of personality. Many believe his younger sister Priyanka would make a better leader, but she has shunned politics. ''Congress insiders complain that [Rahul Gandhi] is a neophyte who does not have what it takes to become prime minister,'' the US charge d'affaires to India, Geoffrey Pyatt, wrote in a 2007 cable published by WikiLeaks. But Rahul's supporters say he is biding his time. ''There is no suspense about it,'' senior Congress figure Digvijay Singh says. ''He has a role, which is increasing constantly.'' The day will come, Mr Singh says, when Rahul ''has to look after us all''. That day might come sooner than Rahul had planned. His Italian born mother Sonia, president of the Congress party and, in reality, the most powerful person in India, has this year suffered an undisclosed but serious illness and is scaling back her public appearances and private politicking. Her son has become ''working president'' of Congress, a dry run for the job he might soon inherit. There is little ceremony when he arrives at his first campaign stop, Babrala, in a white four wheel drive (having flown to Uttar Pradesh from Delhi in a helicopter), and an innocence in the childlike wave he offers the crowd. At 41, he is still boyish, his perennial 5 o'clock shadow offset by youthful dimples. He wears sneakers and Nike socks, odd accessories for a man building his political persona as the friend to India's rural poor, who are almost never in anything more substantial than sandals. This is the first of four rallies he will speak at today, and each receives the same message: that he, and his party, are the ones who will bring prosperity to India's villages, farms and markets. ''Today our country is growing fast and there is no dearth of money,'' he says. ''We send money for the poor, but money is not reaching to you as it's stolen along the way The poor, the unemployed, the farmers suffer because of it.'' In the crush of humanity walking out of the square after his speech, 25 year old Mohammed Akram tells me Rahul Gandhi will unite India. ''He has the power to bring all the people together, all the people across India, all religions. We have much hope for Rahul Gandhi. He will help us.'' But Rahul is far from universally loved. A recent poll by India Today found 61 per cent of people thought his campaigning in rural areas ''a political stunt''. At Babrala, Congress scouts have to be sent out in utes to collect more men (political rallies are an almost exclusively male dominion) to fill up the square where Rahul will speak. Even then, it is little more than half full, and many concede they are just here to see ''a Gandhi'' a nod to the Kennedy esque tragic mystique his family carries in this country rather than out of any support for him. But at Sahaswan, the town square is filled to overflowing hours before he arrives. Rahul's current political campaign is focused on India's most populous and politically powerful state, Uttar Pradesh. Home to 200 million people, it is overwhelmingly rural. Rahul already holds a national seat here (Amethi, once held by his father) but he is concerned, immediately, with the state elections in February next year.

Barefoot running is an evolutionarily sound, biomechanically sound, and statistically plausible way of improving running and reducing injury. Condensed Science Barefoot: starting, Professor (video), Ted, Jason slowly, your body needs time to adapt to a radically different way of movement. Too much too soon will result in injury, possibly stress fractures or worse. Pretend you are learning how to run for the first time. Listen to your body, if you have pain while running, stop immediately. Going barefoot may change your shoe size (usually smaller wider), so some recommend unshod before buying minimalist shoes. Run less than half a mile for your first time, and build up gradually, with rest days. You will be sore in new areas due to barefoot/minimalist running, but if you feel pain or soreness that does not go away after a few days, do not run. Glass is an overblown concern. The soles of your feet will gradually toughen as you slowly increase your amount of barefooting.

Cardinals 7s,A year ago Hunter Moore was a broke hairstylist for porn shoots, but now the 25 year old says he rakes in $13,000 a month from a nastier type of porn. Moore is "making money off your mistakes" and he doesn't care how many people he hurts in the process. More than 200,000 people a day visit Moore's site (which Fairfax Media has chosen not to name), where nude photos of everyday people, including Australians, are typically published against their will alongside their name, location and screenshots of their Facebook profile. He's been hounded by his victims on US TV and even stabbed by someone he featured on the site, but nothing, it seems, can stop him from invading people's privacy. Facebook has sent Moore a cease and desist letter accusing him of intimidating and harassing users but so far has failed to shut the site down. His site appears to be protected by US law and maintains a high Google ranking. "I don't give a f . I'm never going to stop," Moore, who has previously lived in Sydney but now lives in San Francisco, told Gawker. Many of the photos appear to have been provided as revenge by ex lovers a cautionary tale about the dangers of sexting. There are scores of Australians featured on the site, along with others from all over the world, and many end up being harassed by users. More than half of the Australians featured on the site so far have either removed their Facebook profiles or changed their names on the social network. None of the Australian victims contacted by this website responded to a request for comment. "It comes down to, you're f ing stupid and I'm making money off your mistakes," he said. "It might sound rough, but how else are you going to learn not to do this again? It's like you're playing Russian roulette like, oh, let's hope this doesn't get out." Moore told TheAwl that he attended a private Christian school in Sacramento but was kicked out in year 8. He cut his teeth on the web selling clothes and running a gaming forum and a music site. He attended "beauty school" after dropping out of high school and as late as last year took a job doing hair styling for porn shoots as he had run out of money. About that time he conceived his website but initially intended it as a nightlife guide. Moore, who was unfazed when confronted by some of his victims on the Anderson Cooper show, mostly refuses to remove posts but some have been marked as removed. There is no explanation as to the criteria for having photos taken off the site. One user who sent Moore a private message, which he then published, said: "I had a lot of confidence before your site, and the harassment I got changed that. F what people said about my body. I know that I'm attractive. But having my FB raped, my blog, my skype and receiving letters in the mail was too much. I hope you realize that what you did to me was incredibly cruel." Because of the liberal free speech and communications laws in the US, websites are generally protected from being held responsible for content submitted by users. For some victims who have deleted their social networking profiles and created new ones under different names, Moore tracks them down and publishes their new information. Some users, however, view the exposure as a badge of honour and even submit photos of themselves on the site and engage with people commenting about their appendages. In Facebook's cease and desist letter, published by Moore on the site, the company's lawyers said the site breached Facebook's terms by publishing information about Facebook users without their consent. "We have also gathered evidence that you have used Facebook's platform integrations to intimidate and harass Facebook users," the letter reads. The letter said Moore's actions were illegal and must be stopped immediately. Facebook demanded that Moore remove any screenshots of Facebook profiles from his site and informed him that it had disabled his personal profile. Facebook told Moore that it was committed to maintaining the site as a safe places for users to interact and share but "your actions undermine these goals, abuse Facebook users and systems, and will not be tolerated". Moore appears to have ignored Facebook's demands. "I replied with a picture of my dick," he told Gawker, adding he gets "about a million" cease and desist letters a day. He claims he is working on a mobile app and a social networking site, although it remains to be seen whether anyone would trust him with their personal information. Nina Funnell, a social commentator who gives talks about sexting at schools and is researching a book on the subject, said it was a bit rich for Facebook to be going after the site when it does nothing about "deeply mysoginistic [Facebook] groups which eroticise violence against women". She said she did not believe the existence of the site would do much to reduce sexting. "When people are sending intimate photos to partners they're not necessarily thinking about these really ugly abusive websites, they're actually thinking about flirtation and that sort of thing," said Funnell. Funnell was highly critical of a recent government campaign warning kids not to send nude photos of themselves. She said the campaign heaped shame on the victim and ignored the responsibility of people who then sent the photos on to others effectively distributing child pornography.
Store Online Authentic Cardinals 7s,Air Jordan 10 Doernbecher Well I was 23 3/4 inches at birth and I'm now 5'11. Some babies are just really long. DS was 19 inches at birth and at 4 months he is now around 28 to 29 inches (hard to tell with a measuring tape because you never can get it perfect). His sperm donor is 5'4. All the in my family are over 6'4 except for two men who are 5'11 and 6'0. think genetics have more play on that, than what a person is as a baby. After all, each baby grows at a different rate and hits growth spurts different. We all do as we grow too. I didn't have my growth spurt until I was 18, and most girls are done growing at 11 to 14. I was 5'6 up until 12 th grade and by the end of that year I was 5'11. I was around the same height as my son when I was a baby (he was 25" at 3mos) and i'm only 5'0" and haven't grown since about 3rd grade. My brother was super short (he's 5yrs older and we used to be the same height when younger) and he's now 6'2". I don't read much into it given my experience with height lol. Also saw the feet comment, I wear a size 9 10 and can almost fit into my brothers shoes (he's normally a 12). So foot size means nothing for us here lol. People always assumed I would grow to my feet but I just have huge feet. Cardinals 7s Podcasts are on the cutting edge of business communication, allowing you to speak with your own voice directly to your audience. They add variety to your blog or website and prove that you know how to stay ahead of the pack. But hitting "record" without putting some thought into what you're going to say and how you're going to say it is a fatal mistake. Here are eight steps to follow for creating a podcast that makes your listener want to come back for more. 1. Choose a theme. Pick an issue about which you feel confident speaking. Try to narrow it down to a particular angle or perspective think news clip, not university lecture. The best podcasts touch on a specific subject and cover it in depth, rather than attempting to discuss the history of Western Europe in three minutes or less. 2. Consider your audience. How much does your audience know about your subject? What style of reporting will connect with them? The more you put yourself in your listeners' shoes, the better you will be able to speak directly to them. Be sure to include a response to any previous questions or suggestions your audience doesn't want to feel ignored. 3. Prepare an outline. Expand on your theme by coming up with four or five main elements or topics to discuss. Put the most important and engaging information first; this will hook your listener and entice them to hear out the rest of it. Even if you don't write your script word for word, an outline will help you organize your thoughts into a tidy framework. 4. Think ahead for interviews. If you want to include an interview in your podcast, it's a good idea to plan ahead. Make a list of questions you want to ask for sure, but remember that sometimes the best sound bites happen off the cuff. Feel comfortable enough with your interviewee to ask follow up questions and allow the conversation to travel somewhere more interesting if the opportunity arises. 5. Use simple sentences and language. Keep the tone natural and conversational, as if you are speaking with a listener face to face just as you would for any business writing. Toss any words that would send someone reaching for the dictionary; likewise, avoid long sub clauses and complex syntax (these things only bury the point). Just because your sentences are short and clear does not mean your language has to be dry. Do not be afraid to use sensory descriptions to put your listener right in the heart of the action. 6. Keep it succinct. The length of your podcast depends on your subject and audience but no matter how much information you feel is absolutely crucial to your point, listeners will lose interest if it drags. No footnotes or unnecessary diversions here; just the facts, ma'am. 7. Do a practice run. This is especially important if you're working from a basic outline. Read the script for a friend or family member for their (honest!) feedback, or record yourself once and listen to it. Be on the lookout for awkward pauses, confusing sections, and stumbling points. Make notes and do another few run throughs with the changes incorporated. 8. Print it out. It's much easier to read from a piece of paper than from a computer screen, so print out your script before you record. Enlarging the font helps too. If you're worried about losing your place during recording, highlight a few key words or mark the beginning of different sections to keep you on track. The more thoroughly you prepare your script, the more confident you will be when it comes down to recording it and the more effective your podcast will be because of it.
