Kristin Kirkpatrick, M.S., R.D., L.D.: 5 Things Never To Feed Your Child: "I remember it like it was yesterday. I was seven and, after school one day, my mom agreed to take me to my favorite fast food joint for a burger, fries and a cola because I did well on a test. As we pulled into the parking lot, my mouth started to water. I literally imagined putting the food in my mouth and the sweet taste of every chew. I was a picky eater and ordered my burger "plain." Since it was 1983, we were given a small yellow tent to put on top of our car because we had to wait for the "specially made" sandwich to come out. Those minutes seemed like hours."

My partner says I am too loud in bed | Life and style | The Guardian
My partner says I am too loud in bed | Life and style | The Guardian: "I have fantastic sex with a new partner and I have orgasms every time, but he says I make too much noise. He says I sound like I'm being murdered and it's "distracting". He jokingly mentioned that maybe I should have counselling for the problem. I've never thought that my noise in the bedroom was a problem before, but I've never had such great sex in my life. I have been using a pillow over my head, but I find it suffocating. Is there any underlying psychological issue that might affect the level of noise one makes? Previously, I lived a sexless life for 10 years. My new partner is really caring and I wouldn't want to put him off by screaming my head off every time I climax."

Sonia Gandhi - 'Holy' only in Indian media, not so abroad? : IBTL: "A neutral observer of Indian media could soon catch up the partisan attitude that our media takes while extending the 'holy cow' treatment to the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty. Despite an appeal at the Supreme Court and question having been raised in Rajya Sabha on Rajiv Gandhi's Swiss account, Indian media is tight-lipped on the issue."

We are not makers of history. We are made by history
Life is a mixture of everything: failure & success - they complement each other. If you fail, then you know the value of success, it is a stepping stone.You need to move forward: ask yourself, what did I learn from the past, and then what is my vision for the future? This will keep you going - Sri Sri Ravishankar
“The only questions that really matter are the ones you ask yourself.” ~ Ursula Le Guin
“I am open to the guidance of synchronicity & do not let expectations hinder my path” ~ Dalai Lama
"Nature, when she adds DIFFICULTIES... adds B R A I N S" ~Emerson
To succeed, we must first believe that we can. - Michael Korda
"We are not makers of history. We are made by history." - Martin Luther King, Jr
A mind at peace, a mind centered and not focused on harming others, is stronger than any physical force in the universe.
Wayne Dyer

Everybody Loves A Good Drought -: P. Sainath
Flipkart.com: Everybody Loves A Good Drought -: P. Sainath (9780140259841): "The human face of poverty
The poor in India are, too often, reduced to statistics. In the dry language of development reports and economic projections, the true misery of the 312 million who live below the poverty line, or the 26 million displaced by various projects, or the 13 million who suffer from tuberculosis gets overlooked. In this thoroughly researched study of the poorest of the poor, we get to see how they manage, what sustains them, and the efforts, often ludicrous, to do something for them. The people who figure in this book typify the lives and aspirations of a large section of Indian society, and their stories present us with the true face of development."
