Dating Tips: How Long Should You Wait to Call?


Dating has become an intricate process of decoding tricky text messages and learning the latest online lingo. Confusing mind games and sub-par dating tips don’t help, and now more than ever, it’s a jungle out there. If you’re Tarzan looking for your Jane, deciding when to make that call can be a real challenge. It’s common for a bundle of anxiety to accompany those post-date nerves. You’ve got all the butterflies, and sweating it out a minute longer doesn’t seem possible, or realistic. So, what’s a guy or gal, to do? Unless you grew up in a super strict household, you’ve probably heard of the three-day rule. This dating rule, which originated during the days way back when courting someone was actually a thing, says a person should wait at least three days after a date before calling, even if they’re extremely interested. Sometimes, though, it can be hard to tell just what another person is thinking, seeing as everyone’s expectations vary. Case in point, research that surveyed 5,500 singles in the U.S. found 50% of singles said they think a good first date ends with a kiss. Now, with a split like that right down the middle, it’s no wonder many people are confused about the appropriate time to call after a date. Well, we’re here to help you figure out how long you should wait. Read more

Gareth Southgate appointed England manager on four-year contract


Gareth Southgate has been appointed as England manager on a four-year deal. Southgate, 46, stepped up from his role as England Under-21s manager in September following Sam Allardyce's departure after only 67 days in charge. He oversaw two wins and two draws as interim boss and has signed a contract reportedly worth up to £2m a year. "I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the players over these past four games and I think there is huge potential," said Southgate. "I am extremely proud to be appointed England manager. However, I am also conscious getting the job is one thing, now I want to do the job successfully. "I'm determined to give everything I have to give the country a team that they're proud of and one that they're going to enjoy watching play and develop."
Former defender Southgate, who made 57 appearances for England as a player, becomes the fourth permanent manager of the national team in as many years. The ex-Middlesbrough boss oversaw a comfortable World Cup qualifying win against minnows Malta, before his team laboured to a goalless draw in Slovenia. He took a significant step towards being appointed full-time manager with a 3-0 win against Scotland in qualifying earlier this month, before his team squandered a 2-0 friendly lead against Spain at Wembley to draw 2-2 four days later. Before becoming part of the international set-up, Southgate's only managerial experience was his three-year spell at Boro, who were relegated under him in 2009. Southgate's understanding of international football and the development set-up at St George's Park has proved important, according to Football Association chief executive Martin Glenn. "Gareth is a great ambassador for what the FA stands for, he's a very good football tactician and a leader, but beneath that he's a winner and that's an important part of the job," he added.

Cuba allies join thousands to honour Castro in Havana


Several world leaders - and thousands of Cubans - gather in Havana to pay final respects to the late Fidel Castro.Hundreds of thousands of Cubans rallied for late communist leader Fidel Castro with Latin American and African leaders in Havana the night before his ashes were to be taken across the country. They chanted "Long live the revolution!" and "Fidel! Fidel!" on Tuesday at a packed Revolution Square, the vast esplanade where he gave so many of his legendary marathon speeches. 
A giant picture of a young, bearded Castro in his guerrilla uniform and rifle hung on the National Library as his brother and successor, Raul Castro, waved at the crowd. "There are thousands of people in the square," Al Jazeera's Alan Fisher, reporting from the rally in Havana, said. "The ceremony began with the national anthem. Before that we saw some of the dignitaries, like Evo Morales of Bolivia and Jacob Zuma of South Africa, take their seats on the podium. They were cheered, applauded by everyone in the crowd." Leftist presidents Nicolas Maduro of Venezuela, Ecuador's President Rafael Correa and Daniel Ortega of Nicaragua were also among foreign dignitaries to pay tribute to Castro. Correa praised Castro's ideology, telling the crowd: "We will keep fighting for these ideas. We swear!" Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe, 92, himself a former Marxist guerrilla who has led his country as prime minister or president since 1980 despite financial and health crises, praised Fidel Castro's government for having trained thousands of Zimbabwean doctors and teachers. "Fidel was not just your leader. He was our leader and the leader of all revolutionaries. We followed him, listened to him and tried to emulate him," Mugabe told reporters as he arrived in Havana. "Farewell, dear brother. Farewell, revolutionary," he said. South African President Jacob Zuma hailed Castro as "one of the great heroes of the 20th century", citing his opposition to apartheid and his deployment of Cuban troops to back Angola's government against rebels in 1975. Mexico's Enrique Pena Nieto also flew in, but Colombian Juan Manuel Santos, whose government negotiated a peace deal with the Marxist FARC rebels in Havana, did not come as expected. Read more

BOLLYWOOD STAR SHAH RUKH KHAN ON SURPRISING CAREER MOVES


Shah Rukh Khan is the biggest star in Bollywood—but his appeal is global. His movies have grossed $300 million worldwide, he counts Hollywood stars among his fans and in 2016 he was named the eighth highest-paid actor in the world. Back home in India, the media call him “King Khan” and the “Badshah of Bollywood” because of his success at the box office over the last quarter century; his first film in 1992 was the second highest-grossing in India that year. The South Asian diaspora has helped carry his name across the globe—his films regularly chart inside the top 10 of the U.S. box office and he has a devoted following in Russia and Germany. His celebrity fans include pop singer Shakira, Penelope Cruz and Hugh Jackman. He is a bonafide superstar. But as he approaches 25 years as Bollywood’s ambassador to the world, Khan finds himself at a point of transition in his career. Khan is 51, and no longer the young heartthrob with the perfectly coiffed hair and rippling six-pack that won him roles in the 1990s. (Though his hair is still perfectly coiffed and, he claims, the six-pack is still there.) His latest film, Dear Zindagi , has more in common with an offbeat independent drama than the song-and-dance blockbusters he is renowned for, he says. The film follows budding cinematographer Kaira, played by rising Bollywood actor Alia Bhatt, whose methodical approach to achieving the perfect life is overturned when she meets the bohemian Jug (Khan). “I’ve never done a film like this,” Khan tells Newsweek over the phone from Mumbai. “It’s calmer, it [requires] a lot more patience, a lot more gravitas…It’s not a star vehicle; hopefully it’s a vehicle that lends itself more to performance.” Whether in Bollywood or Hollywood, this attitude is not unusual when it comes to veteran actors with mostly commercial credits looking to prove their acting credibility in the last phase of their career—someone like Michael Keaton, for instance. But Khan says that isn’t his motivation: “It’s very simple, and I think that simplicity has kept me going: I feel funny sometimes, so I do a funny film. I wake up and say, ‘This is what I’m feeling,’ and I go out and do it. That’s the only way to be; you don’t sit down and plan out because then it’ll get boring.” Read more 

2017 HONDA CR-V First drive


Honda is in the midst of a product renaissance. Over the next four years, nearly every model in their portfolio will be re-launched, and that aggressive product cadence is a key component of their ongoing strategy to keep the company’s vehicles at the forefront of modernity. The latest case in point is this all-new fifth generation CR-V. Even with 2016 shaping up to a record sales year and the fourth generation CR-V already enjoying the notable distinction of being the best-selling SUV in the United States, Honda isn’t willing to rest on their laurels.Considering the current model’s success, we’d forgive them for simply putting a fresh coat of paint on what’s already proving effective, but it’s also safe to assume that isn’t the sort of mindset that got Honda to the top of the food chain in the first place. Instead, the 2017 CR-V comes packing a new turbocharged power plant, a heavily revised chassis that expands the CR-V’s dimensions, a revamped suspension that seeks to simultaneously improve both ride quality and handling, and a more sophisticated aesthetic to go along with the crossover’s range of content. The latter of which comprise the most expansive list of standard and available features than have ever been offered in the vehicle’s history. Indeed, the tweaks to the formula for the fifth generation CR-V are fairly extensive, but as we’ve seen past that’s not always a sure-fire recipe for a better vehicle. We headed out to Monterey, California to put the all-new iteration of Honda’s crossover through its paces to see if all the revision would help the CR-V retain its title as the benchmark for the segment. Read more:

Pfizer's Herceptin biosimilar succeeds in key breast cancer study


Pfizer Inc said on Wednesday its experimental biosimilar of Roche Holding AG's blockbuster breast cancer treatment Herceptin met the main goal in a key study.Pfizer tested the safety and effectiveness of the drug, PF-05280014, in combination with chemotherapeutic agent paclitaxel against Herceptin and paclitaxel in previously untreated patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. Biotech drugs such as Herceptin are made in living cells, and then extracted and purified. They are more complex than traditional drugs and cannot be copied with precision. Their knock-off versions are called biosimilars and not generics. Several companies are developing biosimilar versions of top-selling biotech medicines. Read more

OPEC agrees first output cut since 2008


OPEC has agreed its first limit on oil output since 2008, an OPEC source told Reuters after Saudi Arabia said it was prepared to accept "a big hit" on production and agree to arch-rival Iran freezing output at pre-sanctions levels. Brent crude futures jumped 8 percent to more than $50 a barrel on hopes Riyadh had finally reached a compromise with Iran after insisting in recent weeks that Tehran fully participate in any cut. The source said the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries had on Wednesday agreed a deal in line with an accord the group reached in Algiers in September.OPEC member Algeria was proposing to set a new production ceiling at 32.5 million barrels per day, down from current levels of 33.6 million. The source gave no further details as two other OPEC sources said debates were continuing on the size of each member country's cut. 
Before the meeting, Saudi Energy Minister Khalid al-Falih said OPEC was indeed focusing on reducing output to a ceiling of 32.5 million bpd and hoped Russia and other non-OPEC producers would contribute a cut of another 0.6 million bpd. "It will mean that we (Saudi) take a big cut and a big hit from our current production and from our forecast for 2017. So we will not do it unless we make sure that there is consensus and an agreement to meet all of the principles," Falih said. 
But he added that even if OPEC failed to reach a deal, the market would slowly recover: "We believe that non-OPEC growth has reversed and also most of the OPEC growth we’ve seen is already behind us," he told reporters. "If we can’t come to an agreement, then the other scenario of rolling over and waiting for the market to recover on its own is not a bad outcome." Clashes between Saudi Arabia and Iran have dominated many previous OPEC meetings. On Tuesday, Iran wrote to OPEC saying it wanted Saudi Arabia to cut production by as much as 1 million bpd, more than Riyadh was willing to offer, OPEC sources who saw the letter told Reuters. But the tone changed on Wednesday. "I'm optimistic," Iranian Oil Minister Bijan Zanganeh said before the meeting, adding there had been no request for Iran to cut output. He also said Russia was ready to reduce production. "Moscow have agreed to reduce their production and cut after our decision," Zanganeh said. Read more

Iran, Iraq at loggerheads with Saudis ahead of OPEC meeting


Iran and Iraq are resisting pressure from Saudi Arabia to curtail oil production, making it hard for the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries to reach a global output-limiting deal when it meets on Wednesday. OPEC sources told Reuters a meeting of experts in Vienna on Monday failed to bridge differences between OPEC's de facto leader, Saudi Arabia, and the group's second- and third-largest producers over the mechanics of output cuts. "The revival of Iran’s lost share in the oil market is the national will and demand of Iranian people," Iranian news agency Shana quoted the country's oil minister Bijan Zanganeh, who was due to arrive in Vienna later on Tuesday, as saying.OPEC, which accounts for a third of global oil production, agreed in September to cap output at around 32.5-33.0 million barrels per day versus the current 33.64 million bpd to prop up oil prices, which have halved since mid-2014.Iran has argued it wants to raise production to regain market share lost under Western sanctions, when its political arch-rival Saudi Arabia increased output.In recent weeks, Riyadh offered to cut its own output by 0.5 million bpd, according to OPEC sources, and suggested Iran limit production at below 4 million bpd. Tehran has sent mixed signals including that it wanted to produce 4.2 million bpd.Iraq has also been pressing for higher output limits, saying it needs more money to fight the militant group Islamic State.The argument between Iraq and Saudi Arabia mainly focuses on whether Baghdad should use its own output estimates to limit production or rely on lower figures from OPEC's experts.As tensions within OPEC mounted, Saudi Energy Minister Khalid al-Falih said at the weekend that oil markets would rebalance even without an output-limiting pact. He had previously said Riyadh was keen for a deal. Falih was not expected to land in Vienna before Tuesday evening, leaving little time for traditional pre-meeting discussions with other ministers."The feeling today is mixed," Indonesian Energy Minister Ignasius Jonan told reporters on Tuesday when asked about the prospects of a deal. "I don't know. Let's see." Read more

Brazil football team Chapecoense in Colombia plane crash


A plane carrying 81 people, including a top Brazilian football team, has crashed on its approach to the city of Medellin in Colombia, officials say. Reports say there are six survivors. The plane reported electrical problems. The chartered aircraft, flying from Bolivia, was carrying members of the Chapecoense football team, airport officials said. The team was due to play in the final of the Copa Sudamericana, against Medellin team Atletico Nacional. The first leg of the final of the cup, South America's second most important club competition, was scheduled for Wednesday, but has now been suspended. The South American Football Confederation (Conmebol) said it was suspending "all activities".The team, from the southern city of Chapeco, was promoted to Brazil's first division in 2014 and reached the final last week after a victory against Argentina's San Lorenzo. Reports say the British Aerospace 146 short-haul plane, operated by Bolivian charter airline Lamia and carrying 72 passengers and nine crew, crashed in Cerro Gordo in the municipality of La Union shortly before midnight local time (05:00 GMT). According to an airport press release, it was reporting an electrical fault to the control tower.Medellin's Mayor Federico Gutierrez described it as "a tragedy of huge proportions". The Jose Maria Cordova de Rionegro airport, which serves Medellin, posted on its Twitter account: "Confirmed, the aircraft licence number CP2933 was carrying the team @ChapecoenseReal. Apparently there are survivors." It later said in a statement that "all possible aid was being mobilised because six survivors are being reported". Poor weather has meant that the crash site, in a mountainous area, is only accessible by land. However, there was no fire on impact, which has given rescuers hope that more survivors may be found. CONMEBOL said in a statement that its president, Alejandro Dominguez, was on his way to Medellin. "The CONMEBOL family greatly regrets what happened. All activities of the confederation are suspended until further notice," it said. Read more

Rachna walks to the field and seeing no one there thinks to herself if she came to the wrong place. The hockey coach arrives there. He and Rachna look at each other. Rachana asks him if he came to meet the hockey coach and he says yes and she further says that we were told to meet here right. She says thank God she thought she came to the wrong place.

He says that they have heard a lot about him and hopefully it will come true. He says you heard I’m strict but I’m very strict and that everyone has to run to round for being late except for Rachna.
Rachana tells the coach she is sorry. He asks for her name and she says Rachna stammering. He then says full name and she says Rachana Garg. He then say oh so she is the girl that was fasting on the day of try outs thinking she could make it and she did. He says that she is very lucky because on the day of the selections he wasn’t there and if he was she wouldn’t be here today.

He further says from now on she has no excuses and to go and change into sports gear quickly.

OPEC makes last-ditch bid to save oil deal as tensions grow


OPEC was trying on Monday to rescue a deal to limit oil output as tensions grew among the producer group and non-OPEC member Russia, with top exporter Saudi Arabia saying markets would rebalance even without an agreement. OPEC experts started a meeting in Vienna at 0900 GMT and were due to make recommendations to their ministers on how exactly the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries should reduce production when it meets on Nov. 30. Meanwhile, the Algerian and Venezuelan oil ministers were to travel to Moscow on Monday and Tuesday in a final attempt to persuade Russia to take part in cuts instead of merely freezing output, which has reached new highs in the past year.In September, OPEC, which accounts for a third of global oil production, agreed to cap output at around 32.5-33.0 million barrels per day versus the current 33.64 million bpd to prop up oil prices, which have more than halved since mid-2014. The meeting on Nov. 30 was expected to rubber-stamp that deal, with Russia and some other non-OPEC producers such as Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan also contributing. But doubts emerged in recent weeks as OPEC's No.2 and 3 producers, Iraq and Iran, expressed reservations about the mechanics of output reductions and Saudi Arabia voiced concern about Russia's willingness to cut. On Friday, OPEC canceled an experts meeting with non-OPEC producers scheduled for Nov. 28 after Saudi Arabia said the organization needed to sort out its differences first. Over the weekend, Saudi Energy Minister Khalid al-Falih said oil markets would rebalance even without an output-limiting pact. He had previously said Riyadh was keen for a deal.

 "NOBODY KNOWS"
Doubts about OPEC's ability to deliver promised cuts sent Brent crude down 2 percent initially on Monday to less than $47 a barrel. Prices later recovered to trade up 1 percent after Iraq's oil minister said he remained optimistic. Some analysts including Morgan Stanley and Macquarie have said oil prices will correct sharply if OPEC fails to reach a deal, potentially going as low as $35 per barrel.
As OPEC experts turned up at the group's headquarters on Monday, one delegate who had previously stated that a deal would be done, said this time: "I am not sure." Another delegate, when asked about the prospects for a deal, said: "Nobody knows yet". Read more

Break your child from these 7 harmful health habits


Thumb sucking, picky eating and nose picking are not only a nuisance, but they can have lasting effects on your child’s health.Here, experts weigh in on why these habits are harmful and offer their best tips for how to deal with your child’s behaviors.

1. Hanging onto the bottle
Switching from a bottle to a sippy cup is often one of the most challenging things for toddlers to do. Plus, drinking too much milk can cause your tot to skip meals and miss out on calcium-rich foods like leafy green vegetables, yogurt and cheese and may even lead to iron deficiency.Of course, allowing your child to fall asleep with a bottle in his mouth can also lead to cavities and tooth decay.The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends toddlers transition to a sippy cup by 15 months of age, but experts say the time to start introducing the sippy cup is around six months so that by the time they’re a year old, it’s gone for good.“The truth is that they’ve satisfied most of their sucking needs by a year,” said Dr. Jane Scott, a pediatrician and neonatologist in Greenwood Village, Colorado, and author of “The Confident Parent: A Pediatrician's Guide to Caring for Your Little One--Without Losing Your Joy, Your Mind, or Yourself.”Once your child has mastered the sippy cup and you think he’s ready, he can move on to using a regular cup without a lid.

2. Thumb sucking 
It’s common for babies and toddlers to suck their thumbs or their fingers to soothe themselves. But depending on how intense they suck and how long the habit lingers, it can affect the way their jaws grow.Since sucking depresses the tongue away from the roof of the mouth and compresses it, the habit can affect the normal growth of the upper jaw, causing it to develop narrowly and leading to a crossbite or an overbite, said Dr. Jade Miller, president of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD).Oral habits can also cause the upper teeth to be flared and the lower teeth to be pushed backwards.The good news is that most kids will not have any problems. Nevertheless, you should bring your child in for regular check-ups with a pediatric dentist starting at age 1, or when the first tooth erupts, so the dentist can rule out any problems.You can help your child stop sucking his fingers with a special nail polish that tastes bitter, a cotton glove or a finger guard. Sometimes praising your child for not putting his fingers in his mouth and persuading him not to do it will be enough.  “In many cases, kids will stop on their own,” Miller said.

3. Picky eating
If you have a child who snubs his vegetables, refuses to eat anything new and only eats a handful of foods, it’s not only unhealthy for his growth and development but it can create a ton of stress in your home.“Because kids eat multiple times a day, this becomes more of a stress point in the family dynamic than other problems,” said Dina Rose, PhD, a sociologist, parent educator and feeding expert in Jersey City, New Jersey and author of “It's Not About the Broccoli: Three Habits to Teach Your Kids for a Lifetime of Healthy Eating.”Instead of pulling your hair out at every meal, the first step is to realize that your child is not being defiant just to be defiant, but that she needs the tools from you to be a healthy, adventurous eater.Then, let your child explore a pea-sized amount of new foods so that she’s armed with information about new foods and will feel safe and empowered to eventually accept them.Instead of asking your child, ‘Do you like it?’ ask what it smells, feels and looks like, for example.“The goal becomes to teach children about food and not from a nutrition perspective but from a sensory perspective,” Rose said. 

4. Nose picking
Whether you like to admit it or not, your kid probably picks his nose. Kids usually pick their noses when they have boogers and it can become even worse when they have a cold, congestion or allergies.It might be unsightly to you, but the only time it can become more difficult to deal with is if it causes frequent nosebleeds, said Dr. John P. Dahl, a pediatric otolaryngologist at Riley Hospital for Children at Indiana University Health in Indianapolis, Indiana and an assistant professor of pediatrics and otolaryngology at Indiana University School of Medicine said.Help your child to wipe and blow his nose regularly and remind him to keep his fingers out of his nose. If your child has a cold or infection, a salt water saline spray or gel can clean out his nose and moisten the lining. For babies and toddlers, a bulb syringe can help too.

5. Teeth grinding
Between 14 and 20 percent of children grind and clench their teeth, a disorder known as bruxism. Children will usually grind their teeth at night, but it can also happen during the day, and it’s common when new teeth come in or when children have stress and anxiety.  In fact, preschool-age children who grind their teeth are more likely to be withdrawn and have problems in school, according to a study presented at the 2008 SLEEP conference.Children who have large tonsils and adenoids and who have obstructive sleep problems are more likely to have the habit too.“Some kids will grind by shifting their lower jaw forward to keep their airway open,” Miller said.The good news is that it’s rare that grinding will become so severe that treatment is necessary. If you suspect your child has obstructive sleep apnea, you should have your child seen by his pediatrician. And if grinding affects your child’s permanent teeth, his dentist might recommend a mouth guard.

6. Snacking all day
Allowing your child to eat every time he asks not only creates a power struggle, but it teaches your child that temporary hunger must be quelled fast. Grazing all day long, especially on sweet, salty and crunchy snacks, also means your child won’t eat their meals because they’re not hungry.“Those experiences push kids away from the healthy foods that we’re trying to get them to eat,” Rose said.Instead of allowing your child to graze all day, decide on a meal and snack schedule. At snack time, offer fruits and vegetables.“It teaches them in their mind that fruits and vegetables are the go-to food, not the exceptional food that we just serve at dinner,” she said.

7. Prolonged pacifier use
The pacifier is soothing for your child and studies show it may reduce the risk for SIDS. Yet it can also be a breeding ground for germs when your child puts it back in his mouth after dropping it or taking it out. Prolonged pacifier use can also increase the risk for ear infections, lead to dental problems, and may affect language development, Scott said. Read more
