Would you get a commitment from him? Are you tired of waiting for your relationship to the next level? What does it take for a guy to be faithful to you and you alone? Commitment is often something that women want and are simply not safe to get it. They believe that obtaining one from a man is almost impossible to do. However, the truth is that you only need to show the man who has a commitment to you is better than to commit to you. Do this and youcircumvent resistance and secure a commitment from him.

You must first talk to him. You can not expect him to know how you feel, think, or need if you do not tell them. However, you need to make sure you do it in a way that is done, but not emotional. You should also make sure not to pressure him or give him a ultimatime. Instead, sit down to tell him how you feel and what you want. Do not cry, cry, get angry or upset. Then get up and go forward with yourlife.

Give him space. You must ensure you give him the space he needs to make the decision at hand. Remember that this is not an easy decision and it is one that is important. It is more difficult for him to do it is to you.

Be fun to be with. You need to show why he wants to be with you. Work on being a positive person who has a good time. You must also do things and go places that are fun so there is that element of excitement to your relationship.

Youalso need to have a life. Stay busy and active. Do not always be there waiting for him. Not only is it healthy, it also helps ensure that there is a reason he would commit to you. If you do not offer him a motive to commit, and if he gets everything he wants from you, without commitment there is no reason for him to make a commitment to you.

With these four things you can circumvent this resistance and achieve commitment. It will take time and youshould be patient, but if you can wait for him, he will finally there for you. This is the best way to cultivate a lasting relationship that is worth more.

What you may never find in your mainstream news sources THE CON IS ON – PART – 1

Hundreds of police officers armed to the teeth are seen guarding a prison in Mumbai; it is the famous Arthur Road Prison. Since the November 2008, it is the most heavily guarded prison in India. Most of the security is to safeguard one single prisoner. More than 30 million dollars have been spent to secure his safety. Ironically, he is the most secure person in India today.

This person happens to be Ajmal Kasab the sole surviving Pakistani terrorist who indulged in mass killings on 26/11/2008 in Mumbai, India. The people of India would love to see him hanged at the earliest. However, the ruling political class could have other designs.

On the night of 26 November, the whole world saw Ajmal Kasab live on their television sets spraying bullets on the innocent citizens. More than a billion people were witnesses to the mass massacre of innocent citizens of different countries. Yet there is a court case going on to decide if he is guilty. Strange isn’t it?

Another terrorist Afzal Guru has been awarded the death sentence by the highest Indian courts yet the Congress govt is reluctant to execute it. The Congress govt very cleverly invents ten different excuses for the delay. The sentiments of the people of this country are the least of its concerns. The crying emotions of humanity do not move them a bit.

Dossier after dossier, I do not remember how many, may be 7, 8 or even 9 which have been sent to Pakistan have not generated the results which the Congress – NCP party wanted us to believe they would. Right from day one, it was a foregone conclusion that the Islamic republic of Pakistan would never take action on terrorism. They are not fools to cut off and dismantle their only industry, which brings in the moolah.

The citizens of India may be fools but the Pakistanis are not. Terrorism is a large-scale enterprise for them and they hold the sole copy rights for it, of course they have franchisees and outlets numbering in millions spread all over the world.

Just like the Pakistanis, it could be possible that the Con – gress and NCP party politicians are also masters at lies, deceit, deception and betrayal. I will not at all be surprised, if either Afzal Guru or Ajmal Kasab contract some disease like malaria, jaundice, swinflu or even some kidney problem in their highly secured prison cells. Don’t you think it would be convenient for some ‘Sickularist’ politicians if these two terrorists whither away and die? Remember Harshad Mehta?

Or

Suddenly one fine day we may hear Ajmal Kasab has committed suicide. Now please don’t ask me stupid questions as to why will such a deed be allowed to? Every one knows why

LIVERPOOL, England, Nov 22, 2009 (AFP) – Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez brushed aside his team’s stuttering form to insist that they will finish in the top four.

The defiant Spaniard watched from the sidelines as Saturday’s 2-2 home draw with Manchester City left last season’s Premier League runners-up with just one win in 10 games in all competitions.

It would have been far worse had substitute Yossi Benayoun not salvaged a point with a late equaliser after goals from Emmanuel Adebayor and Stephen Ireland threatened another dismal day for the Merseysiders.

But a bad day from Liverpool got even worse as Benitez, already missing key striker Fernando Torres and Glen Johnson through injury, saw Danish defender Daniel Agger stretchered off with concussion, while Dutch forward Ryan Babel damaged an ankle.

Yet Benitez is confident his side will bounce back with a winning run once his walking wounded have recovered, and believes Liverpool will still seal a Champions League berth next season despite their poor form.

“You cannot be happy when you draw at home,” said Benitez. “You have a game plan, but then you lose Johnson on the morning of the game and then Agger is stretchered off and Babel has to go off as well.

“The positive thing is we showed great character when we went behind.

“You cannot ask for more than that from the players.

“I think we won six games in a row not so long ago and we have to think positive. When we have all our players coming back I am confident we will start winning games in a row.

“City have quality but if we can improve and play at our level, we will finish in the top four.”

Benitez is confident England full-back Johnson, who failed a fitness test on a calf injury, will be available to face Debrecen in Hungary on Tuesday, a game Liverpool have to win if they are to have any chance of remaining in the Champions League.

Benayoun, who went off towards the end of the game, should also be fit while Benitez is refusing to rule out Babel and Agger, who needed five stitches in his head wound.

Manchester City manager Mark Hughes said his players had allowed a great chance to beat Liverpool slip.

Martin Skrtel had given the hosts the lead with his first goal for the club before goals by Adebayor and Ireland turned the game in City’s favour only for Benayoun to snatch an equaliser.

“In the past City teams would have been happy with a point at Anfield, but we’re going home disappointed,” said Hughes, who confirmed that Brazil’s Robinho is on the brink of returning to action after damaging an ankle.

“At the moment it feels like a chance has been lost.”

City have now drawn their last six league matches, but Hughes added: “It is only a matter of time before we start winning again.

“It’s not a worry (that City are allowing leads to slip). It’s more a frustration.

“We deserved a win against Liverpool. I felt we could have seen the game out after getting our noses in front.”

An organization will not begin the transformation until it is aware that the quality of the product or service must be improved. Awareness comes about when an organization loses market share or realizes that quality and productivity go hand in hand. It also occurs if TQM is mandated by the customer or if management realizes that TQM is a better way to run business and compete in domestic and world markets.

Automation or other productivity enhancements might not help a corporation if it is unable to market its product or service because the quality is poor. The Japanese learned this fact from practical experience. They could sell their products only at ridiculously low prices, and even then it was difficult to secure repeat sales. Until recently, corporations have not recognized the importance of quality. However, a new attitude has emerged—quality first among the equals of cost and service—the customer wants value.

Quality and productivity are not mutually exclusive. Improvements in quality can lead directly to increased productivity and other benefits. The improved quality results in improvement in productivity, capacity, and profit. Many quality improvement projects are achieved with the same workforce, same overhead, and no investment in new equipment.

More and more corporations are recognizing the importance and necessity of quality improvement if they are to survive domestic and world-wide competition. Quality improvement is not limited to the conformance of the product or service to specifications; it also involves the inherent quality in the design of the system. The prevention of the product, service, and process problems is a more desirable objective than taking corrective action after the product is manufactured or a service rendered.

TQM does not occur overnight; there are no quick remedies. It takes a long time to build the appropriate emphasis and techniques into the culture. Over-emphasis on short term results and profits must be set aside so long-term planning and constancy of purpose will prevail.
