Reveals Anderson Cooper - he's gay: 'I couldn’t be any more happy, comfortable with myself, and proud'

“The fact is, I’m gay, always have been, always will be, and I couldn’t be any more happy, comfortable with myself, and proud,” he wrote to fellow gay journalist Andrew Sullivan, who published the letter with Cooper’s permission in his column on The Daily Beast website.

COOPER COMES OUT, GETS SEA OF SUPPORT FROM CELEBRITY FRIENDS

Cooper declared he didn’t want to have his silence about his sexuality — talk of it has swirled for years on blogs and in media circles — to be misconstrued as shame.

“By remaining silent on certain aspects of my personal life for so long, I have given some the mistaken impression that I am trying to hide something — something that makes me uncomfortable, ashamed or even afraid,” he said.

“This is distressing because it is simply not true,” added Cooper, 45, who has been linked to East Village bar owner Benjamin Maisani.

The decision to go public now brings the subject to a larger general audience — a move experts predicted won’t hurt his career and one that fans and friends cheered.

“This wasn’t some shocking announcement; this is certainly something that people have been saying for a long time,” said Robert Thompson, pop culture professor at Syracuse University.
Media strategist Shari Anne Brill agreed. “For those people who think it’s an issue, they’re probably watching Fox News anyway,” she told the Daily News.

CNN had no comment and said Cooper wanted his letter to speak for itself.
Sullivan had written to Cooper to ask his views on a recent Entertainment Weekly cover story about gay celebs who’ve come out with little fanfare, including hunky “Magic Mike” actor Matt Bomer and Jim Parsons of “The Big Bang Theory.”

“I’ve always believed that who a reporter votes for, what religion they are, who they love, should not be something they have to discuss publicly,” Cooper wrote.

Cooper, whose mom is jeans designer Gloria Vanderbilt, continued: “As long as a journalist shows fairness and honesty in his or her work, their private life shouldn’t matter. . . . I’ve stuck to those principles for my entire professional career.”

He said he hopes his decision to come out will help others who face bullying, bias, and violence. “I believe there is value in making clear where I stand,” he said.

Celebs, including comedian Kathy Griffin, who co-hosts CNN’s New Year’s Eve specials with Cooper, tweeted their support.

And at New York’s gay community center, there were widespread cheers.

What Men Want : Things Men Wish Women To Know

Things men wish women knew...

For all the time they spend talking about us, you’d think they’d know us better,” Washingtonian Jack G., 32, told me when I asked him to share what he thinks women don’t know about men.

He has a point. The dating habits of single men are a hot topic for many single women across the country. There’s much debate and dozens of simple answers to more obvious questions. But what are guys not telling you? I investigated to uncover several things you should know in order to help you understand your dates better.

1. Men like it when a woman makes the first move. The words “first move” are easily misinterpreted, so let me clarify things: Making the first move doesn’t entail throwing yourself at a man. Acknowledging him with eye contact or giving him a smile is definitely a first move, and guys love the feeling of being flirted with by a woman. Hopefully, most men can pick up the ball and run with it after that first flirty signal.

2. It’s OK to play hard to get — but avoid those stale, old-school tactics. Surely you’ve heard this old wives’ tale: To hold a man’s interest, a woman must play hard to get. Here’s the kicker — men and women may agree on this, but they define “playing hard to get” differently. You might interpret it as turning a man down the first time he asks you out or pretending to ignore him when he walks by, as if such behavior is a turn-on. Ladies, frankly, for most of us, it doesn’t work that way; instead, it’s simply frustrating. Successfully playing hard to get works like this: once a man knows there’s at least a flicker of mutual interest, you get coy. You genuinely smile at him and then look away. You acknowledge his sexual advances while holding them at bay. It’s all about setting your pace and what works for you. You might be busy one night and can’t go on a date, but offer another day or time to meet up instead. Treat playing hard to get like an ongoing dance rather than a yes or no question to be answered.

3. Superficial objectification cuts both ways; in other words, men want to be loved for more than their provider status. “Some women complain that guys judge them too harshly for their looks, as if we’re the only superficial ones,” says 30-year-old John D. from Florida. “Well, they don’t want to be judged for their looks and I don’t want to be judged by my bank account. I just stopped seeing a girl after three weeks because she seemed to think I was loaded and expected me to pay for everything. I make $45,000 a year. She makes double that. I was happy to pay for the first couple of dates as a gesture, but after that, I thought her expectations were unfair.”

4. Men cannot read women’s minds, so speak up if you’re unhappy. “I can tell when a date is annoyed or not happy about something,” says 35-year-old Jay A., a Virginia resident. “But if she expects me to know what she’s thinking without telling me, it’s a futile waste of time for both of us. And then I get annoyed.” 

5. Men are more sensitive about the way they look than you think. Do men worry what you think about their weight, clothes and overall style? Yep. Men don’t get a pass on all that anymore. Now they know what it’s been like for you ladies to live under the cultural microscope all these years, constantly being judged by your physical appearance. The difference is that men probably won’t tell you how self-conscious they are about it. They’re not going to ask you if their jeans accentuate their love handles or wonder if their hair looks cool… but they’ll be thinking about it. So say something nice about how he looks and — if the man has any brains at all — expect him to return the favor when you ask if your butt looks fat in your outfit. (By the way, no. It never does.)

6. Excessive communications drama can push men away. “When I call or text a girl, I feel this huge expectation from the other side of the phone line,” says 25-year-old Tyler W. from Maryland. “Does it mean I want to be her boyfriend? Not always.” Sometimes guys are just calling you to talk; it’s a telecommunications version of “hanging out” together. Don’t be overly offended if there’s occasional multitasking involved, either, especially if the guy is at work (occasional being the key word here). It’s OK to be miffed if he’s a serial offender who never gives you his full attention, though.

7. Saying “I love you” is a huge step for a guy. Everybody wants to hear “I love you” at some point. But copping to those three little words is arguably a bigger step for men than women and it isn’t uttered lightly. Rushing a man makes him worry that you are more in love with the idea of being in love with someone — anyone — than paying attention to what’s really happening between the two of you.

8. It means something when a man introduces you to his friends. Long, lingering dates and cocooning together at home are wonderful in the early days of any relationship, but there comes a point where integration — or, more specifically, the lack of it — into a man’s life can signal that this guy doesn’t see you as his girlfriend. If you’re still spending all your time alone together with nary a friend or family member of his in sight after a few months, don’t get confused: you’re having some kind of an affair, not a relationship.

How Apps Work
Now it’s easier to see and control how you connect to apps on Facebook.

1. Understand apps before you use them
Before you install an app, you can learn about it and what it does, and if it's a timeline app, see a few examples of the activity it will share on Facebook. Timeline apps may publish a wide range of content on your behalf, including your past and future activities.

2. Control who can see your app activity
You can choose who can see your app activity on Facebook using the inline audience selector.

Note: This only controls who sees the app activity that is shared on Facebook. For what people see off Facebook, check the settings in the app itself and their policies.

3. Choose what information apps can access
Some of the things that apps ask your permission to use are now optional. You decide what an app can access when you install it. To remove one of these permissions, simply click the ‘x’.
What An App Can Access

When you first visit an app, Facebook lets the app know your preferred language, the country you live in, and whether you are under 18, between 18-20, or 21 and over. When you install an app, it will ask your permission to access your basic info, which includes your public information and friend list. The app may also ask you to share additional information, such as your posts, photos or likes. If you give the app permission, it can access and store the information you’ve shared with them. Apps you’ve installed may always update their records of your basic info, age range, language and country. If you haven’t used an app in a while, it won’t be able to continue to update the additional information you’ve given them permission to access.

WROCLAW, Poland (AP)

Alan Dzagoev scored a goal in each half in Russia's masterful display of attacking soccer to beat the Czech Republic 4-1 in their European Championship Group A opener Friday.
Dzagoev and Roman Shirokov gave Russia a 2-0 halftime lead before Vaclav Pilar in the 52nd minute gae the Czechs brief hopes of a comeback.

Dzagoev replied with his second in the 80th minute, and substitute Roman Pavlyuchenko added a fourth in the 82nd.

Russia, a surprise semifinalist four years ago, showed it has the potential to go even further in Poland and Ukraine.

If Euro 2012's opening 1-1 draw between Poland and Greece had more drama than quality, the second group match was a feast of offensive soccer.

Police Wrongly Tell Woman Her Husband Died in Motorcycle Collision-ABC news

When officers told Melody Halls, 31, that her husband died early Tuesday morning in a motorcycle accident, she went immediately to the first stage of grief: denial.

And she was right.

Two Alberta, Canada, police officers and a grief counsellor arrived at Halls's Medicine Hat, Canada, home and told her to sit down. Once they asked whether her husband had tattoos, they told her he'd been killed in a 1 a.m. collision, Halls told ABC News.
"As soon as he said that, I knew something was wrong. ... I'd seen my husband at 7 a.m.," Halls said. "It was instant disbelief because it's the worst thing that anyone can ever say to you -- that your husband has been killed this morning."
Halls' husband has tattoos on his forearm and calf, but the officers told her the accident victim had tattoos on his stomach and back, strengthening Halls' conviction that her husband was alive.

Halls led the officers out to the garage.
"Sure enough, the door to our shed was open and the lock was missing off of it," she said.
The motorcycle and helmet were gone.
Police determined the motorcycle had been stolen, and the thief -- whom police have not yet named, but Halls said was a neighbor -- died in the accident.

"Although efforts were made to identify the victim of the collision based on the information available at the time, the Medicine Hat Police Service sincerely apologizes for the distress that was caused to the family of the motorcycle owner, when they were incorrectly notified," Medicine Hat Police Service Deputy Chief Richard Wigle said in a news release.

The service will be reviewing its next-of-kin notification practices, according to the police statement.
With officers in and out all day, Halls had to tell her 9- and 10-year-old children about the mix-up. They were mostly shocked at the thought of losing their father, she said.
As for her husband?
"He's really upset about his motorcycle being stolen more than anything," she said. "And that somebody died crashing it."
Halls said she isn't mad about what happened to her, but she wishes the police asked about the last time she'd seen her husband before doing anything else. She said she accepted the police chief's apology on one condition: "as long as this never happens again."

When is Father's Day falls this year [2012]?

Hello friends,

This year 2012, Fathers Day falls on Sunday 17th June, 2012. In the USA, UK and Canada - Fathers' Day is celebrated on this day as I have mentioned above.

In Australia and New Zealand, fathers are honored the first Sunday in September. This year, 2012 is on 2nd September. 

As far as I know, In Thailand - Thai people celebrate their Fathers' Day on 5th December of every year. To mark the king Bhumipbol's Birthday. Thai government declared the 5th December, king Bhumipbol's Birthday, is as National Father's Day. It's also one day-off of 13 days of the whole year calendar in Thailand. 

Well, one of the reasons for setting a day apart to emphasize the role of father in the family. So, I hope that in every families, should celebrate and join some activities together to build more warm and firmness for this special day, the only one time in a whole year!

Dad might not say what he needs. But we can make our dads to SMILE.

'Aung San Suu Kyi' with her role on the last World Economic Forum on East Asia 2012

Hello friends,

As the World Economic Forum on East Asia 2012, 30 May - 01 June 2012 - Bangkok, Thailand focusing on ASEAN issues, civilian safety and security are often overlooked issues at such meetings.

Here is some part of the news from the forum.
 

<>

"Aung San Suu Kyi, the iconic pro-democracy activist from Myanmar, has made a splash at the opening of the World Economic Forum in Bangkok, during the third day of her visit to Thailand -- her first time out of her native country in more than two decades.

Suu Kyi’s star-power overwhelmed the summit, with eager admirers, including other diplomats and delegates from around the world, as well as autograph-seekers asking for moments of her time and even taking photographs.

Not even the presence of The Prime Ministers of Bahrain, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam and the President of Indonesia can overshadow the fascination with the Burmese heroine.

Even the President of Myanmar, Thein Sein, pulled out of attending the summit, allegedly because he did not wish to be upstaged by Suu Kyi.

Surin Pitsuwan, the secretary-general of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, attributed the excitement at the summit solely to Suu Kyi’s electrifying presence.

“It’s a full house,” he said. “I don’t know -- can we panelists claim credit for that? Or is it because of The Lady [Suu Kyi]?”

How 'Angry birds' is the one of the largest success games in the world?

Hello friend,

With wingless birds, how Angry birds is so cute? Let's see its background here after.

Angry Birds is a strategy puzzle video game developed by Finnish computer game developer Rovio Mobile. Inspired primarily by a sketch of stylized wingless birds, the game was first released for Apple's iOS in December 2009. Since that time, over 12 million copies of the game have been purchased from Apple's App Store, which has prompted the company to design versions for other touchscreen-based smartphones, such as those using the Android operating system, among others. The game is also available on HP App Catalog.

In the game, players use a slingshot to launch birds at pigs stationed on or within various structures, with the intent of destroying all the pigs on the playing field. As players advance through the game, new birds appear, some with special abilities that can be activated by the player. Rovio Mobile has supported Angry Birds with numerous free updates that add additional game content, and the company has also released stand-alone holiday and promotional versions of the game.

Angry Birds has been praised for its successful combination of addictive gameplay, comical style, and low price. Its popularity led to versions of Angry Birds being created for personal computers and gaming consoles, a market for merchandise featuring its characters and even long-term plans for a feature film or television series. With a combined 1 billion downloads across all platforms and including both regular and special editions, the game has been called "one of the most mainstream games out right now", "one of the great runaway hits of 2010", and "the largest mobile app success the world has seen so far".

Synopsis

Snow White is the only person in the land fairer than the evil queen, who is out to destroy her. But what the wicked ruler never imagined is that the young woman threatening her reign has been training in the art of war with the huntsman who was dispatched to kill her.

In the beginning of the film, The film opens with the Huntsman narrating how once upon a time, in the dead of winter, a queen saw a single red rose blooming despite the freezing cold. While admiring the flower, she pricked her finger on the flower's thorns and three drops of blood fell on the white snow. At that moment the Queen wished that she could have a child with lips red as blood, skin white as snow, hair black as a raven's wing, and the same spirit and defiance of that red rose blooming in spite of the winter. A few months later, the Queen gave birth to a daughter named Snow White.

Snow White's (Stewart) mother passes away and her father is killed by Ravenna (Theron), a woman who posed as a poor prisoner when he was tricked into battle by the Dark Army. Beauty, remarries. She assumes the throne along with her brother Finn (Sam Spruell) and the Dark Army. For fifteen years, Snow White is kept prisoner in a tower in the castle, but when the queen learns through her mirror that Snow White (who has now come of age) is now the fairest in the land, she orders her brother to kill her. Snow White manages to escape, but since her village has been ravaged by the Dark Army, she is forced to flee into the Dark Forest in order to find Duke Hammond's castle because he is the only person that could help her regain control of her kingdom.

Knowing that Snow White's heart is needed to remain eternally young, Ravenna enlists the help of Eric, a widowed huntsman (Hemsworth), with the promise that if he succeeds in finding Snow White, his wife will be brought back to life. The huntsman was quick to locate Snow White in the Dark Forest, but learns through Finn that he had been tricked by the queen and she did not intend in keeping her promise to him. Infuriated, he fights off Finn and his army and agrees to help Snow White in her quest to find the duke's castle,but is still unaware of her true identity.

After a near-death encounter with a troll, Snow White and the huntsman come across a village of refugees where they decide to stay for a night. Upon discovering Snow White's true identity, the huntsman leaves, but returns when he realizes that Finn and his army have set fire to the village. This is when the movie takes a strange turn. Snow White and the huntsman are captured by eight dwarves, but they manage to convince them to help them evade the Dark Army. The dwarves lead them into the Sanctuary which is basically the complete opposite of the Dark Forest, full of enchanted animals and fairies. After fighting through a few more obstacles in their path, Snow White and friends, along with the duke's army, battle it out against the queen and the Dark Army.
