CultureIndian Bride Walks Out Of Wedding When Groom Fails Math Test!!! by ojay72(op): 10:03am On Mar 14, 2015
NEW DELHI (AP) — An Indian bride walked out of
her wedding ceremony after the groom failed to
solve a simple math problem, police said Friday.
The bride tested the groom on his math skills and
when he got the sum wrong, she walked out.

The question she asked: How much is 15 plus six?

His reply: 17.

The incident took place late Wednesday in
Rasoolabad village near the industrial town of
Kanpur in northern Uttar Pradesh state, local
police officer Rakesh Kumar said Friday.

The groom's family tried persuading the bride to
return, but she refused. She said the groom had
misled them about his education.

"The groom's family kept us in the dark about his
poor education," said Mohar Singh, the bride's
father. "Even a first grader can answer this."
Local police mediated between the families and
both sides returned all the gifts and jewelry that
had been exchanged before the wedding, Kumar
said.

Last month, another bride in Uttar Pradesh
married a wedding guest after the original groom
had a seizure and collapsed at the wedding venue.
The groom's family had not revealed that the
groom was epileptic. While the groom was rushed
to a hospital in Rampur town, the bride asked one
of the wedding guests to step in and married him.
Most marriages in India are arranged by the
families of the bride and groom. Except for brief
meetings, the couple rarely gets to know each
other before the nuptials.

Drake must be the happiest man on earth
right now! His surprise album If You're

success and has helped him match the

They are now the only acts to have 14

“They go through enormous amounts of training and are more used to going up against multiple grown men and hearing loud noises.”So the little things a kid might do to startle a regular dog isn’t going to phase ours at all.”

The couple run a business supplying security pets to celebrities and the wealthy. Onlookers were left stunned when they saw

richest man in the world. The youngest
billionaire in the world is 24 year old Evan
Spiegel, the co-founder of photo- messaging
app, Snapchat.

The year’s biggest loser in dollar terms is Aliko
Dangote of Nigeria, whose fortune dropped to
$14.7 billion from $25 billion last year, propelled
downward by a weaker Nigerian currency and
shrinking demand for cement, his largest asset.
He still retains the title of Africa’s richest man.

Hmmmmmm... Sleek.
RomanceThe 8 MAJOR Differences Between Being In Love And In Lust. Must Read!!! by ojay72(op): 3:48pm On Feb 28, 2015
Love, lust: it’s easy to confuse the two, especially in the early stages of a relationship. Both emotions make you feel a kind of bliss that you’ve never experienced before – which is wonderful and joyous and something to celebrate – but make sure you know the difference between the two. Need a little help? Here’s a few clues:






1. When you’re in lust, you dress to the NINES. Maybe even the TENS. Obviously, there’s no harm in trying to look good for your significant other, especially when you’re first courting each other. But we all know dressing (and looking) like you’re going to Fashion Week each time you step out for a date takes a sh*t-ton of effort, not to mention money!
When you’re in love, you might forget to wear pants. Are you wearing a shirt? Check. Shoes? Check. Pants? Oops! On those exciting Friday nights where you end up pacing the aisles of Costco to stock up on frozen pizzas and Lucky Charms cereal, comfort = love.


2. When you’re in lust, you look past their foolishness. Things are so hot & heavy, it’s easy to look past minor “annoyances” (that laugh, that money problem, that MOTHER) that may turn into larger issues down the road.
When you’re in love, you point out their mistakes. You love them, which is why you want them to be a better person. And if they love you, they’ll accept the (constructive) criticism and try to be a better person not just for you but for themselves, too.


3. When you’re in lust, you say what they want to hear. You constantly aim to please. When they ask you a question, you’re more apt to reply with a “safe” answer, even though it might not fully express how you feel. (You figure you’ll get to that later, right?)
When you’re in love, you keep it real. You don’t agree with everything they’re saying and you clearly state that. Having different views and opinions from your significant other doesn’t necessarily mean you’re not a good match; it just means that SHOCKER: You’re different people. And that’s okay. Healthy debate is good and normal and helpful at seeing things from another perspective.


4. When you’re in lust, the person you’re with is a Greek God/Goddess. Or rather, try this analogy: a perfectly-shaped cookie with no dents or chipped corners. But hate to break-it-to-you: even perfect-looking cookies have burnt sides (even if they’re not visible at first).
When you’re in love, they’re more like a Greek God/Goddess statue missing it’s arm.Perfectly imperfect, just like you! Pretending to be anything other than that is exhausting and oh: A LIE.


5. When you’re in lust, you don’t really know them. Sure, you know their favorite color is blue and their favorite food is macaroni and cheese. But that’s surface level-stuff. You haven’t dug down deep – and girl, that tunnel is LONG.
When you’re in love, you know small insignificant details. Their favorite color is blue because when they were little, it was their mother’s favorite color to dress them up in. Their favorite food is mac & cheese because it’s the comfort food their Grandma always made them when they went to visit. These small, seemingly insignificant details are intimate parts of their past and who they is. And you know all these little, beautiful factoids because you took the time to really get to know them – and better even, you still want to know more.


6. When you’re in lust, you don’t feel comfortable talking to them about your problems. Talking about your problem can help ease stress and tension. But you prefer to talk about them with someone you trust. And let’s face it, you’re just not at that ride-or-die stage yet.


When you’re in love, you’ll talk to them about, well, basically everything. You know you love someone when you can trust them with the most minor (and major!) issues you’re having, not matter how weird/trivial/embarrassing they are. You know that they’ll listen without judgement. That’s love.


7. When you’re in lust, silence is awkward. Which is either filled with rambling or make-out sessions. No objection to make-out sessions, of course, but the fact that you both find the silence awkward is a sign of discomfort.
When you’re in love, silence is welcomed.  When you run out of conversation topics, you don’t feel like you need to fill the silence with something else. You just let the silence sit comfortably. The void is welcome.


8. When you’re in lust, the future is unknown. Yes, you’re enjoying every moment you have with them right now. You love their attention, the dates, and the feeling of pure bliss. But when you look at the long run, you have absolutely no idea what the next few months (or years!) will hold. It’s a little scary.
When you’re in love, you welcome thoughts of the future. Whether you marry or not is up to you both, but can you see yourself sitting side-by-side on matching rickety rocking chairs? Does the idea of that give you something to look forward to? Do you picture bad vacations, fights over trivial things, and (gasp!) babies and can’t imagine anyone else taking this journey with you? Then, you’re totally and utterly in love....

Health5 Diseases You Never Knew Marijuana Could Fight Or Potentially Cure by ojay72(op): 6:31pm On Feb 08, 2015
To say there's been a dramatic shift in sentiment
toward marijuana over the past decade is an
understatement.
In just one decade, the American public went
from opposing the legalization of marijuana by a
margin of three to one to favoring its legalization
by nearly a three-to-two margin, according to
statistics from research firm Gallup.
What's fueled this sudden surge in marijuana
interest among the public? I'd opine it's been a
mixture of the need for states to collect tax
revenue to narrow budget deficits and the
visibility of the positive effects of medical
marijuana coming to light. Medical marijuana is
most often prescribed by physicians as a
treatment for cancer pain and as an appetite
stimulant. There are currently 23 states that have
legalized medical marijuana, and four (Oregon,
Washington, Colorado, and Alaska) that have
legalized the drug for recreational adult use.
You never knew this about marijuana
There's much more to the marijuana debate than
whether or not it should be legalized for
recreational use. Select drug developers around
the world are examining the properties of
cannabinoids from the cannabis plant, as well as
marijuana itself, to determine whether or not
they could have a medically beneficial effect
against certain diseases.
Whether you realize it or not, these five diseases
may be successfully fought with or cured by
marijuana.
1. Brain cancer
Brain cancer is a scary diagnosis because surgery
is often difficult, and the blood-brain barrier
makes most standard chemotherapy options
ineffective.
However, in May, London researchers released a
report in Molecular Cancer Therapeutics that
showed pretreating brain tumors with the
cannabinoids THC and CBD prior to radiation
therapy led to a dose-dependent increase in
tumor cell death due to heightened
radiosensitivity. During the trial, researchers
concluded that tumors that were pretreated
wound up being just one-tenth the size of tumors
in the control group.
Cannabinoid-based drug developer GW
Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: GWPH ) currently
has two compounds in clinical development
(GWP42002 and GWP42003) for glioma and is the
company to watch in this space.
2. Alzheimer's disease
Another serious brain disease is dementia, of
which a majority of cases wind up being
Alzheimer's disease. According to the Alzheimer's
Association, the number of Alzheimer's cases is
expected to rise by 176% to 13.8 million by 2050,
and this follows a 68% increase between 2000
and 2010.
The good news is, based on a
multi-author abstract published
in the Journal of Alzheimer's
Disease last year, cannabinoid
THC may be useful in slowing the
formation of beta amyloid, the
plaque that floats around in
Alzheimer's disease patients'
brains that reduces their
cognitive function. After
examining the effect of THC on
beta amyloid protein precursor cells, researchers
noted at the six-hour, 24-hour, and 48-hour marks
that THC lowered beta amyloid levels.
Although a handful of small studies have been
undertaken concerning marijuana's effect on
Alzheimer's, no larger drug developers currently
have any clinical trials under way in this
indication. But, I'd suggest it's certainly one worth
closely monitoring considering the limited success
of traditional pharmaceuticals in treating
Alzheimer's.
3. Epilepsy
Epilepsy is the fourth most common neurological
problem, trailing only Alzheimer's, stroke, and
migraine. Epilepsy affects about 150,000 people in
the U.S. annually, and over their lifetime, people
have about a 1-in-26 chance of developing
epilepsy.
Source: GW Pharmaceuticals.
We don't need to reference abstracts here,
though, as GW Pharmaceuticals has produced
scintillating early-stage results for Epidiolex in two
rare types of childhood epilepsy, Dravet
syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. As my
colleague and biotech guru Brian Orelli recently
reported, 56% of Dravet syndrome patients
observed their seizure frequency drop in clinical
studies, while 52% of patients with drop seizures,
often associated with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome,
had their seizure frequency reduced.
4. Type 2 diabetes
Diabetes is what you might refer to as a silent
killer. Even though it doesn't swiftly kill patients, it
is a chronic, lifelong condition that can lead to a
number of co-morbidities that can eventually lead
to death. Within the U.S., per the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention, there are 29.1
million people with diabetes -- 90% to 95% of
which are type 2 diabetics.
Yet, in May 2013 a three-authored study
published in The American Journal of Medicine
observed that marijuana could play a key role in
controlling people's blood sugar levels. The study,
which looked at 4,657 people, including both
active and former marijuana users, showed that
current marijuana users had a 16% reduction in
fasting insulin levels and an accompanying 17%
drop in HOMA-IR, which measures insulin
resistance and beta-cell function. Surprisingly,
marijuana users also had slimmer waistlines!
Not to sound like a broken record, but GW
Pharmaceuticals is also developing a drug known
as GW42004 for type 2 diabetes. In a phase 2a
study, it led to a statistically significant reduction
in fasting plasma glucose levels with a positive
trend of increased insulin sensitivity. Obviously, a
drug approval here could have broad treatment
implications. GWP42004 is currently in phase 2b
trials.
5. Schizophrenia
Lastly, schizophrenia has been diagnosed in
about 3.5 million people in the United States, or
slightly more than 1% of the population,
according to the Schizophrenia and Related
Disorders Alliance of America. The costs to treat
schizophrenia range from $32.5 billion to $65
billion annually.
In 2012, a study published in
Translational Psychiatry hinted
that cannabinoid CBD may prove
to be an attractive substitute for
current antipsychotic
treatments. In total, the study
examined 39 patients, dosing 20
with CBD and 19 with
amisulpride. While both led to
similar Brief Psychiatric Rating
Scale scores upon study
completion, it was noted that the CBD group had
fewer side effects than the amisulpride group.
Keep in mind that THC, not CBD, is the
hallucinogenic component of marijuana.
As should be no surprise by now, GW Pharma is
also developing GWP42003 as a potential
treatment for schizophrenia. Following positive
early-stage results, the drug has moved into
phase 2a with a results readout expected in the
second half of this year.
One thing to remember
While marijuana has shown very promising
benefits in research-driven and clinical studies, we
have to keep one thing in mind as investors:
Marijuana is still a schedule 1 drug according to
the federal government.
Being classified as a schedule 1, or illicit, drug
denotes that marijuana has no medical benefits
in the view of the government, which could make
it extremely difficult for drug developers to
advance new studies. The Food and Drug
Administration hasn't exactly taken a negative
stance on cannabinoid-based medications, but
my personal opinion is that it'll be extra critical of
approving studies considering the wide scope of
conflicting safety data we've witnessed in studies
over the past decade. For a company such as GW
Pharmaceuticals, it means the possibility of
having to jump through more safety hurdles, or
maybe even having its drug restricted to a certain
subset of patients.
As a consumer, I'm excited about the potential
benefits marijuana can offer sufferers of these
diseases. But as an investor, I'm still keeping a
substantial distance between myself and a still
immature and undefined marijuana industry.
