Study: Women Always Answer Their Phones Unless They’re Having Great Sex With Someone Else

(by:The Onnion)

Researchers say this is what is happening 100 percent of the time when women don’t answer their phones.
BLOOMINGTON, IN—A new study released Monday by sociologists at Indiana University found that women will always answer their telephones unless mind-blowing sex with a man other than the caller prevents them from doing so.
The findings were consistent across all demographic groups in a sampling of 500 females between the ages of 18 to 35, which included women who were romantically involved with the caller but had requested some time apart to clear their heads, as well as women who had dated the caller briefly but assumed it was understood by both parties that the relationship had not worked out.
«No matter who they were, or what their perceived or actual relationship with the male caller was, women who failed to pick up the phone were statistically all but certain to be deep in the throes of coital passion with one or more virile lovers at the time of the call,» researcher Patrick Berger said. «In addition, a vast majority of the female participants we observed had seemingly forgotten all about the relationship they once had with the caller, and were, in fact, completely consumed by the vaginal gratification they were currently receiving.»
«A type of gratification they would hesitate to even call ‘sex,’ since it was so much more intense and transcendent than any kind of sex they had experienced before,» Berger added.
The study revealed that 80 percent of the time, women who declined to answer their phones were, at that very moment, being sexually pleasured by a man superior to the caller in terms of looks, genital endowment, and stamina. Researchers also found that a majority of women picked up the phone, examined the caller ID, and told their male lover «It’s nobody» before continuing with sexual intercourse.
In another 15 percent of cases, female research subjects had just journeyed to a land of pure sexual delight with another man and were, at the time the phone rang, smoking a cigarette while letting their fingertips graze over the unusually thick penis that had just brought them to, on average, four orgasms. The remaining 5 percent of non-answerers consisted of women who were stimulating their own genitals, either while talking on the phone to another man, instant-messaging another man, or simply imagining another man who had sexually turned them inside out on a recent occasion.
«It’s true that in a negligible number of cases, women did not answer because their cell battery had legitimately died,» Berger said. «But in each instance, they had either failed to charge their phone because they’d spent the night in someone else’s apartment, or had used up their battery’s power sending pictures of their naked body to another man.»
The study emphasized that while women who failed to answer the phone were almost unquestionably with someone else enjoying the most volcanic sensual escapade they’d ever had, there was also the possibility that they were busy gazing deeply into another man’s eyes, knowing and feeling a type of love they had never known or felt before.
«In many cases, during the time of the call, the woman was spending the afternoon with the man at that museum she’s always wanted to visit, afterward watching the sunset from the deck of the man’s boat,» said social psychologist Michael Corbin, a coauthor of the study. «In each case, the woman didn’t want a ringtone ruining a moment of true spiritual connection with the first man she had ever really, truly loved with all her heart.»
«Sex, however, always occurred subsequently,» Corbin added.
According to the researchers, the findings of this latest study are fully consistent with their previous behavioral investigations.
«Our prior research has already demonstrated that any communication between women and their old high school boyfriends will result in sexual relations and that a girls’ night out invariably leads to sexual contact with multiple men met in bars,» Corbin said. «We won’t be surprised if instances of women getting a drink after work with that cool, funny male coworker they’re always talking about yield similar results.»
The study also concluded that 99 percent of women who pick up the phone quickly and enthusiastically do so because they are expecting a call from another man.

How to become a manager

(by: MakITclear)

1. Communication
There’s a lot of communication when you’re a manager. You have to communicate with each of your employees. You have to communicate “sideways” with your co-workers and customers. And you have to communicate upwards with your own manager or executive. You need some substance in the communication, of course — you need to have something worthy of being communicated. But substance isn’t enough — if you know what you’re doing and can’t properly communicate it to anyone else, then you’ll never be a good manager.
2. Listening Skills
This is a part of communication, but I want to single it out because it’s so important. Some managers get so impressed with themselves that they spend much more of their time telling people things than they spend listening. But no matter how high you go in the management hierarchy, you need to be able to listen. It’s the only way you’re really going to find out what’s going on in your organization, and it’s the only way that you’ll ever learn to be a better manager.
3. A Commitment to the Truth
You’ll find that the higher you are in the management hierarchy, the less likely you are to be in touch with reality. Managers get a lot of brown-nosing, and people tend to sugar-coat the news and tell managers what they want to hear. The only way you’ll get the truth is if you insist on it. Listen to what people tell you, and ask questions to probe for the truth.  Develop information sources outside of the chain of command and regularly listen to those sources as well. Make sure you know the truth — even if it’s not good news.
4. Empathy
This is the softer side of listening and truth. You should be able to understand how people feel, why they feel that way, and what you can do to make them feel differently. Empathy is especially important when you’re dealing with your customers. And whether you think so or not, you’ll always have customers.  Customers are the people who derive benefit from the work you do. If no one derives benefit from your work, then what’s the point of keeping your organization around?
5. Persuasion
Put all four of the preceding skills together, because you’ll need them when you try to persuade someone to do something you want done. You could describe this as “selling” but it’s more general. Whether you’re trying to convince your employees to give you a better effort, your boss to give you a bigger budget, or your customers to agree to something you want to do for them, your persuasion skills will be strained to their limits.
6. Leadership
Leadership is a specialized form of persuasion focused on getting other people to follow you in the direction you want to go. It’s assumed that the leader will march into battle at the head of the army, so be prepared to make the same sacrifices you’re asking your employees to make.
7. Focus
The key to successful leadership is focus. You can’t lead in a hundred different directions at once, so setting an effective leadership direction depends on your decision not to lead in the other directions. Focusing light rays means concentrating the light energy on one spot. Focusing effort means picking the most important thing to do and then concentrating your team’s effort on doing it.
8. Division of Work
This is the ability to break down large tasks into sub-tasks that can be assigned to individual employees. It’s a tricky skill — maybe more an art than a science, almost like cutting a diamond. Ideally you want to figure out how to accomplish a large objective by dividing the work up into manageable chunks. The people working on each chunk should be as autonomous as possible so that the tasks don’t get bogged down in endless discussion and debate. You have to pay careful attention to the interdependencies among the chunks. And you have to carefully assess each employee’s strengths, weaknesses and interests so that you can assign the best set of sub-tasks to each employee.
9. Obstacle Removal
Inevitably, problems will occur. Your ability to solve them is critical to the ongoing success of your organization.  Part of your job is to remove the obstacles that are preventing your employees from doing their best.
10. Heat Absorption
Not all problems can be solved. When upper management complains about certain things that can’t be avoided (e.g., an unavoidable delay in a project deliverable), it’s your job to take the heat. But what’s more important, it’s your job to absorb the heat to keep it from reaching your employees. It’s the manager’s responsibility to meet objectives. If the objectives aren’t being met, then it’s the manager’s responsibility to:

  • Make sure that upper management knows about the problem as early as possible.
  • Take all possible steps to solve the problem with the resources you’ve been given.
  • Suggest alternatives to management that will either solve the problem or minimize it. These other alternatives may propose the use of additional resources beyond the current budget, or they may propose a change in the objective that’s more achievable.
  • Keep the problem from affecting the performance or morale of your employees.

11. Uncertainty Removal
When higher management can’t give you consistent direction in a certain area, it’s up to you to shield your employees from the confusion, remove the apparent uncertainty, and lead your employees in a consistent direction until there’s a good reason to change that direction.
12. Project Management
This is a more advanced skill that formalizes some of attributes 7 – 11. Although both “Management” and “Project Management” contain the word “management,” they aren’t the same thing. Management implies a focus on people, while Project Management implies a focus on the project objective. You can be a Manager and a Project Manager, or you can be a Manager without being a Project Manager. You can also be a Project Manager without being a Manager (in which case you don’t have people reporting to you — you just deal with overseeing the project-specific tasks).
13. Administrative and Financial Skills
Most managers have a budget, and you’ll have to be able to set the budget and then manage to it. You’ll also have to deal with hiring, firing, rewarding good employee performance, dealing with unacceptable performance from some employees, and generally making sure that your employees have the environment and tools they need to do their work.  It’s ironic that this is skill number 13 (an unlucky number in some cultures), because a lot of managers hate this part of the job the most.  But if you’re good at budgeting, you’ll find it much easier to do the things you want to do.  And hiring and dealing with employees on a day-to-day basis is one of the key skills to give you the best, happiest and most productive employees.
Conclusion
This article explains some of the things you’ll need to learn before you become a successful manager.  You can probably become a manager without having all of these skills, but you’ll need all of them to be really successful and to get promoted to higher levels of management.
For every one of these skills, there are various levels of performance. No one expects a new manager to be superior at every one of these skills, but you should be aware of all of them, and you should do everything you can to learn more about each skill. Some of that learning will come through education (like reading the articles on this web site — you might want to subscribe). But much of the learning will come through experience — trial and error.
Just learn as much as you can about each skill, take nothing for granted, and focus on doing the very best that you can do. Learn from your mistakes and try not to repeat them. And ask for feedback — in many cases you won’t know what you could do better unless someone tells you.

Por esta noche

Pensemos por un rato que nos conocemos de hace años,
que esta noche es como tantas noches que nos amamos,
cuando mire tus ojos pretenderé que los conozco,
y hasta me conmoverán.

Cuando te abracen mis manos,
y no puedas escapar,
recuerda que nos conocemos de siempre,
que no estamos escapando,
que en realidad deseamos estar juntos.

Dejemos de lado la soledad por un rato,
sequemos las lágrimas e inventemos un pasado mejor,
hagamos de esta noche, la realidad que no tenemos,
sueños que no existen,
ni vendrán.

Al final puedes dormir en mis brazos,
te miraré mientras duermes y veré en tu cara a un ángel,
sentirás mis brazos y no temerás,
no abras los ojos, así seré quien tú desees.

Es mejor que no sepas mi nombre,
hoy seremos dos enamorados,
no un par de extraños solitarios.

Bruno Mars – Just the way you are

What comes from inside us, has an especial value.
Here and right now is what define present future.

All what you can understand but you can feel,
is inside someone else mind but also inside yourself,
hidden in your feelings.

Listen to them.

Oh her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they’re not shining
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying

She’s so beautiful
And I tell her every day

Yeah I know, I know
When I compliment her
She wont believe me
And its so, its so
Sad to think she don’t see what I see

But every time she asks me do I look okay
I say

When I see your face
There’s not a thing that I would change
Cause you’re amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you’re amazing
Just the way you are

Her nails, her nails
I could kiss them all day if she’d let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think its so sexy

She’s so beautiful
And I tell her every day

Oh you know, you know, you know
Id never ask you to change
If perfect is what you’re searching for
Then just stay the same

So don’t even bother asking
If you look okay
You know I say

When I see your face
There’s not a thing that I would change
Cause you’re amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you’re amazing
Just the way you are

The way you are
The way you are
Girl you’re amazing
Just the way you are

When I see your face
There’s not a thing that I would change
Cause you’re amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you’re amazing
Just the way you are.

6% de los Tweets son retweeteados

(By: Muycomputer.com)

«No por mucho twittear, seremos más retwitteados» podría ser la versión adaptada a Twitter de uno de los populares refranes españoles. De hecho, un estudio demuestra que el 71% de los tweets no produce ninguna reacción en forma de replies o retweets por los seguidores. No obstante, esto no significa que no sean leídos o no se haga clic en los enlaces que contienen para obtener más información. Aún así, sólo el 6% de las publicaciones en Twitter tienen una contestación y/o retweet. 

Un estudio de Sysomos del que se hace eco Mashable revela la repercusión de los tweets que se publican en el microblogging más de moda del momento. El informe ha estudiado el comportamiento de 1.200 millones de tweets durante 2 meses para llegar a algunas conclusiones interesantes. No obstante, como todos los estudios hay que coger los datos con cautela.

El 71% de los tweets analizados no provocan ninguna reacción, teniendo en cuenta que por reacción el estudio entiende tweets y replies. De hecho, sólo el 6% consigue que sean retwitteados por los seguidores mientras que el 23% obtiene una respuesta por parte de los followers. Sin embargo, debemos tener en cuenta que los tweets se ven, crean imagen de marca o persona y permiten acceder a información adicional sobre el tema.

El estudio también comenta que el mayor índice de éxito para un tweet se da en la primera hora después de su publicación en Twitter. De hecho, el 96 y 92% de las respuesas y retweets, respectivamente, se dan en ese intervalo de tiempo. Después de ese período es complicado conseguir una difusión o un reply (5,97% de probabilidades para los retweets y 2,22% para las respuestas).
