was jogging one day and i noticed a person in front of me, about 1/4 of mile. I could tell he was running a little slower than me and I thought, good, i shall try to catch him. I had about a mile to go my path before i needed to turn off. So i started running faster and faster. Every block, i was gaining on him just a little bit. After just a few minutes i was only about 100 yards behind him, so i really picked up the pace and push myself. You would have thought i was running in the last leg of London Olympic competition. I was determined to catch him. Finally, i did it! I caught and passed him by. On the inside i felt so good. "I beat him" of course, he didn't even know we were racing. After i passed him, i realized i had been so focused on competing against him that i had missed my turn. I had gone nearly six blocks past it. I had to turn around and go all back. Isn't that what happens in life when we focus on competing with co- workers, neighbors, friends, family, trying to outdo them or trying to prov ...

Yep... So I guess the money recouped from the Olympic legacy that was gonna benefit the "country" is just going back into the London Olympic park. Why is it just down to Sheffield to budget for this existing stadium in the north . Is it not worthy of the "legacy" the Olympics was going to provide. That's all- simple question? Oh yeah and where is Seb?

The guilty silence that killed Reeva Steenkamp Why does no one mention the most obvious thing that put Oscar Pistorius' girlfriend in harm's way? To the amazement and disbelief of the world, London Olympic hero Oscar Pistorius is in police custody today with the prospect of spending a life sentence in prison for the murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. Meanwhile, revisionist histories of the man, along with cultural profiling of his homeland South Africa that might help explain his “fall from grace” are pouring in, although none of them goes to the heart of the matter. Now we learn that the famous Blade Runner is a man with a darker side, a furious temper and an altogether combustible character that big media has ignored up until now. In South Africa, however, he hit the headlines in December after allegedly threatening to break the legs of a man rumoured to be a rival for one of his girlfriends. It is not clear whether this was Steenkamp. He is a gun enthusiast, like many South Africans, but sho ...

DONETSK (UKR): Triple jump reigning European and world champion and London Olympic bronze medalist Olha Saladukha isn’t going to compete at European Indoor Championships in Gothenburg. The 29-year-old Ukrainian informed EME News she is invited to compete in Dusseldorf and Birmingham. “Because of ligament’s slight tear I couldn’t show my real shape neither in London nor at three events after Olympic Games. After difficult summer season I had intensified treatment and have been recovered more than a month. I started my usual preparation in November at a Portugal training camp. My 2013 goal is to defend world champion title in Moscow. That’s why I’m going to start my summer preparation bit earlier than usual – from the beginning of March” Saladukha said. She also confirmed that she will try to fight for Diamond League trophy as well.

Current Affairs India - 18 January 2013 1. The government has halved the reserve price for CDMA spectrum yesterday in order to get telecom operators such as Sistema Shyam and Tata Teleservices to participate in the next round of bidding which all have skipped the previous auction. The decision to cut the base price for pan-India spectrum in the 800-mega Hertz (MHz) frequency band to Rs 9,100 crore was taken by the Union Cabinet after a recommendation by the EGoM. 2. The finance ministry has clarified yesterday that software development at client locations and deployment of personnel abroad by India’s IT firms such as Infosys, Wipro and TCS will continue to get tax exemptions. This will remove the confusion regarding taxing of onshore services and bring cheer for the USD 100 billion IT Services sector. 3.
