Is there a formula for lasting love?
According theTELEGRAPH.The formula for the perfect first date is; Candlelit dinner + kissing = a call back. The perfect relationship? Timing + communication x mutual attraction – emotional baggage = intimacy. Penis + pulse = One night stand. Relationships seem simple when you put them like that. And yet we've all had those romances where the sums seem to add up, where the right boxes were ticked and the scores were even... but somehow it doesn't add up to love. Love is frustrating, elusive, intangible. It starts in that sweet spot between intimacy and excitement which is impossible to manufacture and tiring to maintain. Can the algorithms of online dating sites or indeed the long odds of stumbling upon your perfect partner down the local pub ever predict where, when or for how long cupid will strike? Whilst science has not yet manufactured the perfect partner, mathematicians are claiming to have found the formula that predicts how long love will last. Research commissioned by MSN has revealed a new love equation that determines the key ingredients to a successful, long-lasting relationship – with factors such as a good sense of humor ranking in importance alongside a person's number of previous sexual partners. According to the 2,000 males and females surveyed, 25 per cent of both men and women believe their partner should have had four sexual partners before them (with one in five men clinging to the traditional belief that they should be their ideal woman’s “first”). The survey also found that men prioritize looks over intelligence and are twice as likely as women to believe that good sex is important for a happy, enduring relationship. The biggest surprise for me was that the number one trait we're all apparently after is wit. So there you go, it's not sex-appeal but sparkling banter that'll make you a hit with the opposite sex. It is claimed that the resulting formula (L = 8 + .5Y - .2P + .9Hm + .3Mf + J - .3G - .5(Sm - Sf)2 + I + 1.5C - see key below) can determine how long a potential or current relationship can be expected to last. Does it really work? I decided to test the hypothesis through extremely scientific means (in other words, by broadcasting to the world, via Twitter, that I am single and ready to mingle in a mathematically-approved fashion). I applied the formula to various unsuspecting male friends and volunteers over the course of an afternoon, and eventually found a man with whom love would apparently last 12.9 years. Only trouble is... I don't fancy him. And despite the 12.9 happy years I could offer him, he doesn't particularly fancy giving it a go either. That's science for you. Back to the drawing board. The formula explained: L = 8 + .5Y - .2P + .9Hm + .3Mf + J - .3G - .5(Sm - Sf)2 + I + 1.5C L: The predicted length in years of the relationship Y: The number of years the two people knew each other before the relationship became serious P: The number of previous partners of both people added together Hm: The importance the male partner attaches to honesty in the relationship Mf : The importance the female attaches to money in the relationship J: The importance both attach to humor (added together) G: The importance both attach to good looks (added together) Sm and Sf = The importance male and female attach to sex I = The importance attached to having good in-laws (added together) C= The importance attached to children in the relationship (added together) Note: All 'importance' measures can be scaled from 1 to 5 where 1 is not important at all and 5 is very important. Research findings for same sex couples differed slightly from heterosexual couples and so the formula changes slightly in light of this to L = 8 + .5Y - .2P + 2J - .3G - .5(S1 - S2)2 - I + 1.5C (where S1 and S2 are the two partner’s ratings for the importance of sex).Moment of thinking... These are few questions asked in HR interview! The answers are really stunning and inspiring. Thinking out of the box! A must read… Question 1: You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night, it's raining heavily, when suddenly you pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for a bus: * An old lady who looks as if she is about to die. * An old friend who once saved your life. * The perfect partner you have been dreaming about. Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing very well that there could only be one passenger in your car? This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a job application. He simply answered: "I would give the car keys to my Old friend and let him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the partner of my dreams." Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations. Never forget to "Think Outside of the Box." Question 2: What will you do if I run away with your sister? The candidate who was selected answered " I will not get a better match for my sister than you sir" Question 3: Interviewer (to a student girl candidate) – What is one morning you woke up & found that you were pregnant. Girl – I will be very excited and take an off, to celebrate with my husband. Normally an unmarried girl will be shocked to hear this, but she managed it well. Why I should think it in the wrong way, she said later when asked. Question 4: Interviewer: He ordered a cup of coffee for the candidate. Coffee arrived kept before the candidate, then he asked what is before you? Candidate: Instantly replied "Tea" He got selected. You know how and why did he say "TEA" when he knows very well that coffee was kept before. (Answer: The question was "What is before you (U – alphabet) Reply was "TEA" ( T – alphabet) Alphabet "T" was before Alphabet "U" Question5; Interviewer said "I shall either ask you ten easy questions or one really difficult question. Think well before you make up your mind!" The boy thought for a while and said, "my choice is one really difficult question." "Well, good luck to you, you have made your own choice! Now tell me this. "What comes first, Day or Night?" The boy was jolted into reality as his admission depends on the correctness of his answer, but he thought for a while and said, "It's the DAY sir!" "How" the interviewer asked, "Sorry sir, you promised me that you will not ask me a SECOND difficult question!" ___ Sometimes just thinking out of the box is all it takes! Share with your friend and give them a special moment of thinking…!!
Guys, do you feel she is cheating on you or probably your attitude or your sexual weakness is driving her to the arms of another man.
A new poll has shed light on why women look for love and passion outside their marriages, asserting that wearing socks and talking dirty during sex are two of the many reasons. Victoriamilan.com, a site that urges infidelity, surveyed 4000 women about their partner’s bad habits that turn them off. The findings showed that little things like stealing the sheets at night, and pleasuring himself over her were among the top reasons why women cheat. According to the site: “Little things like stealing her covers, keeping his socks on while making love, or checking the dreadful smartphone,” are all ungentlemanly gestures that turn women off. A lack of creativity between the sheets, skipping foreplay also using dirty talk also featured on the list. “When you’re busy talking dirty, your partner often thinks your mind is more on that porn movie fantasy than on what is happening between you two in the moment.” Also, checking the smartphone in the bed again and again, lack of foreplay and creativity between the sheets also featured in the results.

President Kenyatta's take on NSSF during the Wage Bill Debate
" Imagine today we sit with an NSSF that has been collecting money and docking every single employee saying that we are doing it for their saving of tomorrow. Imagine today instead of investing in quarries, investing in the Stock Exchange that has no meaning to the mwananchi who is the one who is contributing. Imagine today if NSSF coz they tell us today they are looking for the highest savings, the highest return for the sake of the person contributing, but are they actually looking to see how that person contributing is living today? As a result of them looking for these high returns, they are forcing that person to pay rent that is completely unaffordable. They are making it impossible for that man to ever own a home for him and his family. They are making it impossible for that person to save even in alternative ways. Doesn't it not make much more sense ladies and gentlemen, if we were to say that an organization like that should be investing today to make available cheap loans to the watchman, to the factory worker, so that at least he is able to own a home today, while at the same time expecting something in his retirement? na at least akienda retire ako na nyumba ya kuishi."NAIROBI, Kenya, Mar 12 – Capitalfm reports .The Court of Appeal has nullified the March 4, 2013 election of Peter Munya as Meru Governor. Munya, who previously served as a Member of Parliament, immediately indicated that he would be petitioning the Supreme Court following the nullification of his poll win. The petition was filed by a voter, Dickson Mwenda. Mwenda moved to the Court of Appeal arguing that the High Court erred when it ordered a scrutiny of ballot papers in only seven polling stations out of the disputed 82. He also claimed the court denied him a chance to cross-examine the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission and the Meru Returning Officer on the contents of defective Forms 35 and Forms 36. Munya was declared the winner after he garnered 184,273 votes against former assistant minister Kilemi Mwiria’s 180,837 votes.
