Top 5 Guys Women Love And Men Are Like “Meh”


Top 5 Guys Women Love And Men Are Like “Meh”


Men don’t hate these guys, they just don’t see the draw. Well, okay, maybe they hate some of them (one in particular who is all sparkly), but mostly they just don’t get it. And that’s okay—they don’t need to get it. We will be just as happy watching their movies and videos all by ourselves…
1. Robert Pattinson.
At the moment he definitely tops the list. The girls are aaaaallllll about him, and the dudes are like “Are you kidding me?!? A sparkly vampire?!?” But the women don’t care—as Edward Cullen, he embodies all the romantic notions women dream about. But even before he played that glittery night creature, we liked him in the Harry Potter movies—hellloooooo Cedric Diggory!!!
2. Mark Ruffalo.
Women tend to love the movie roles he picks, and guys are like “But his face is all smashed!” Maybe so, but there is still something about him that is so attractive, and the guys are like “But his face is all crooked!” Yes, we know, and we find it endearing. On him – not on you. Sorry.
3. Adam Levine.
Known affectionately as the “Man-whore of Hollywood,” Adam is still number one on many a woman’s Freebie List. We know he’s a man-whore, and we don’t care—he is so hot that of course every woman has offered themselves to him. How could they not? If we went to a party, and he was there, we would be like “Look, boyfriend/husband/partner, I’m sorry, but you can’t be mad at me! I didn’t know he was going to be there! What was I supposed to do??”
4. Oalando Bloom.
Yes, he hasn’t been in any good movies for the last ten years, but we will never ever ever get over him as Legolas, so just get used to it. He is on the list to stay.
5. Daniel Radcliffe.
And we thought he was hot before he took off his clothes for that weird British play, so don’t even start with that, perv. We love him as Harry with the glasses and the powers and the wand (whoops!), but we also love him as Dan with the messy hair and the indie rock tastes. We have watched him grow up from cute kid to hottie man and we will remain loyal to him forever GRYFFINDOR RUUUUUULES!!!!! Oh, uh, sorry about that

Luke Angel Banned From America: Barack Obama Email Scandal


Luke Angel Banned From America: Barack Obama Email Scandal

The United States’ Federal Bureau of Investigation may take upon itself the reputation of taking things as serious business. Well they have all the reasons and the obligation to do so anyway. Because of this, an angry e-mail from a drunken teenage boy addressed to the President of the United States, Barack Obama,  is definitely something that should not be an exception to the strict security implementations of the said agency.

luke angel barack obama Luke Angel Banned From America: Barack Obama Email Scandal
Luke Angel, a 17-year old British resident from Silsoe, Bedfordshire, was banned from entering and stepping into the U.S. grounds (for life) after reportedly sending a “threatening” email and embarrassing remark to President Barack Obama. This boy used the word “prick” to address the United States leader. Angel was said to have been angered and became upset after watching a documentary about the 9/11 attack of the Twin Towers. The boy was said to be under the influence of alcohol while watching the said show.
It has been a custom and common measure for government officials and agencies especially those that are directly involved with national security to check and monitor e-mails that may or may not be directly addressed to government offices and officials. This act is done in order to detect possible security threats and stop any danger as soon as possible. Just last year in Colombia, a man was arrested after announcing in Facebook that he is promising to kill the son of Colombian President  Alvaro Uribe, Jeronimo Alberto Uribe.
After intercepting the e-mail sent by Angel, the FBI didn’t hesitate to make swift actions—they immediately called the local British police from the boy’s hometown. The police then went to the Angel’s residence, took photographs of the boy and broke the news that he is forever banned from entering the United States from then on.
Angel doesn’t seem to care about it, however. He didn’t deny the accusation though, instead he claimed that he was drunk and could actually have called President Obama a prick, but other than that,  he could not clearly remember the whole details of his gripe mail. Not being able to step into the U.S. did not pose any big deal to the boy, but he said that his parents were quite upset about it.
Now, if such a boy’s impulsive expression of his feelings should be considered by the Federal security agencies to be a big threat already, then we could put it as they are really taking things way too seriously. It is understandable though, and we could not blame them for doing such because of the various dangers posed in every nation nowadays. But, isn’t it too drastic an action to ban a boy outright from entering the country even before doing any further investigation? Well the moral is, everyone should be careful about what they post and send through and around the Web.

What Your Facial Hair Says About You : Mustaches

What Your Facial Hair Says About You : Mustaches


Tom Selleck. Ron Jeremy. Groucho Marx. All dudes with limited career options at this point, but more importantly, all dudes with notable mustaches. Historically, the mighty ‘stache has been a calling card of masculinity, and this doesn't appear to be changing any time soon. Also, I would call attention to the popular t-shirt reading "Mustache Rides - 5 cents." I'm pretty sure this can be counted as history's first meme.
What it says about you:

The Chevron
As the proud bearer of a classic American mustache, I know how to get things done. Whatever my job is, I'm good at it, and I enjoy it. And it's probably something cool, like "race car driver" or "middle relief pitcher."


The Horseshoe

I've absolutely no dignity left to assail. I'm probably not an actual biker, but if I put on a leather jacket as well, at least no one will crowd me on the bus. In rare cases: This Tuesday I'll be fighting the Iron Sheik at the Imperial Bingo Palace on Interstate 41. Whatcha gonna do, when these 24-inch pythons run wild on you, brother!


The Toothbrush

If it's later than 1945, and I'm not appearing in a biopic about the life of Charlie Chaplin, there's something seriously wrong here, fraulein.


The Handlebar

I am more concerned with looking stylish than looking tough. I probably know other mustache guys, but I'm far too classy to point out that their shapeless tufts fall far short of my efforts.Alternatively: Hey Paizan! Whatta you want on this-a pizza?


The Pencil
I'm an artistic type, and my art tends to push boundaries. Even if that "art" is stage magic, mime, or tango instruction.


The Fu-Manchu

I might be an intergalactic villain intent on conquering the galaxy, or I might just be the creepy guy in the neighborhood who hangs out a little too close to the playground for comfort. Either way, better steer clear.


The Walrus

I'm so manly, I basically grew a second ballsack on my face. I'm pretty handy with power tools, but don't kid yourself. I could chop down a tree faster than you too. So could my horse, and my 12 to 15 kids. Who, incidentally, refer to me as "Pa."


The English

I talk with some sort of weird accent which I obviously adopted after spending a semester in some weird country. But at least I'm handy to have around; at this very moment, there's enough wax on my lip to sculpt a little candle in case of a blackout.

5 Most Corrupt Countries of the World


5 Most Corrupt Countries of the World

Corruption develops when there is financial instability, poverty, unemployment, social unrest, economic failure and unequal distribution of wealth nepotism and bribery go unnoticed.
It is really shocking to know that 1/3 of  countries are corrupt. Corruption is going to be an incurable problem and it is one of the most eminent hurdles in achieving much needed development, growth and economic sustainability. The 2010 Corruption Perception Index shows that about 75% of 170 countries in the index fulfill the definition of being corrupt. Among them Somalia scored1.1, Afghanistan and Myanmar 1.4 and Iraq 1.5 showing highest corruption level. Thee world’s least corrupted countries are Denmark, Newzeland and Singapore.
Here comes the brief description of world’s 5 most corrupt countries of the world.


SOMALIA
Somalia, situated in the horn of Africa, ranked as the most corrupt country according to the International Corruption Perception Index 2010. Due to social break down and famine chronic crises resulted elite people influence politics and exploit the poor. The President (Malthus Kerekous’) advisor, Cissie, called Le Mara bout “the Priest” stole 5 billion CFA from the bank. General discrimination and unequal distribution of wealth is common. Somalia military is not beyond corruption as well.The African Development Bank has promised dollars 2 million to establish a central bank and anti-corruption commission.
AFGHANISTAN
Corruption is a devastating and grim problem in Afghanistan. According to latest survey 59% of Afghani people mentioned the Corruption as the most dangerous and greatest issue faced by the country. Even the President’s brother has been reported to have ties virulent drug trade.

During the last year Afghanistan people have paid approximately ¼ of its GDP (Gross National Product) as bribes. The Afghanis are of the view that it is impossible to get any public service without paying bribes. Buying a judge is cheaper than hiring a lawyer. This high ranged corruption among military, judiciary and police is dangerous for the economy. There is a continuous pressure on Hamid Karzai, the president, to tackle this problem ,but the Talibans are still sheltering Osama bin laden and there is a continuous stealing of foreign aid in the form of cash as well as weaponry.
MYANMAR
Despite of being rich in resources, minerals, natural gas and timber Myanmar, also known as Burma, is rich in corruption and illegal drug trading. Due to military dictator ship for about 40 years the Myanmar is considered as the world’s poorest nation. Because of child labor, military influence, forced relocation of civilians, human right abuses and misuse of resources Myanmar has been widely accused by NGOs for corruption.
Poverty, repression, stagnation, nepotism, bribery and corruption all are the main features of this worst corrupt economy. Having extremely corrupt judiciary and police, there are no significant anticorruption efforts in Myanmar. The class discrimination and flow of wealth towards a specific group of people are the main cause of economical unrest. The investment has also been prohibited by US government since 1997.

IRAQ
Iraq is an extremely corrupt country. Iraq score 1.5 in corruption Index. The judiciary, senior members of Iraqi governments, ministries , public servants ,police everyone is corrupt. Nepotism, bribery, favoritism, selective prosecution, contract frauds, employee theft of medicines, vehicles, food etc are common in Iraq.  Ministry of Oil, Ministry of Medicine, Ministry of Health, Ministry of trade and almost in all prominent government departments’ corruption is at its peak.
As compare to Sadam Husain’s regime, every government would look good. But still the Shiite leaders of Iraq are considered as the most corrupt leaders by citizens and charged of deprivation of reliable water, electricity and fuel supplies.

UZBEKISTAN
Uzbekistan is the most populous country of central Asia. Unfortunately it is the world’s 5th most corrupt country as well. It scores 1.5 in CPI this year. After president Islam Karimoy got elected in December 2007, the condition of economy became worse. Despite of very high literacy rate the most effected sector is education where grades and degrees are purchased as a routine.
Corruption is rooting deep in economy and grows more rampant. Most of the revenues earned by exports are distributed among a specific class of ruling elites and leads to the exploitation of the poor.
In order to eradicate this curse, government need to eradicate anti corruption measures in all spheres, make economics plans for financial stability and join hands with international communities.
