<p>Trust Shah Rukh Khan to come up with something unique for his fans. The superstar dived into a pool and went underwater after garnering over 33 million fans on Twitter.<br />
<br />
In a video posted by Khan himself, the actor was seen sporting a tuxedo paired with dark sunglasses and completed his look with gelled hair. &quot;This didn`t go as planned... But on a lazy Sunday afternoon, with my limited floatation expertise, this is the best I could do! Judge nahi karna, feel karna (don`t judge, just feel). Thanks.(sic)&quot; the actor tweeted as he shared the video.<br />
<br />
Before jumping into the pool, Shah Rukh said: &quot;Hi guys, this is me and I thought every time we reach a big number... I should always do something special for you but normally I do not get the time. But today I have got the time so I gelled my hair back, wore my coolest dark glasses and I am even wearing a bow tie.&nbsp;</p>

<p>&quot;A full tuxedo and today I want to give the most overwhelming loving message that I`ve given you in the last decade. So listen to it carefully because this is very heartfelt.&quot;</p>

<p>After he dived into the pool, popular dialogues said by the star from his over two decade-long journey, played in the background, like &quot;<em>pyaar</em><em> </em><em>dosti</em><em> hai</em>&quot; and &quot;<em>bade bade</em><em> </em><em>deshon</em><em> </em><em>mein</em><em> </em><em>aisi</em><em> </em><em>choti</em><em> </em><em>choti</em><em> </em><em>baatein</em><em> </em><em>hoti</em><em> </em><em>rehti</em><em> hai</em>&quot;.<br />
<br />
When he came out of the water, the star said: &quot;I hope you heard every word I said it was right from my heart and so overwhelming that I am running out of breath and where are my glasses. Lots of love to you all.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp;Once the video got over, the caption came: &quot;Thank you 33 million&quot;.</p>

<p>Goa chief minister Manohar Parrikar has sparked an outrage on social media after he said that he was a worried man these days because girls have started consuming alcohol while addressing a youth gathering in Goa.</p>

<p>&quot;I have begun to fear now because even the girls have started drinking beer. So barrier of that tolerance limit is being crossed..Not all of them. I am not referring to this crowd. I am just referring&quot;, he said while addressing state youth parliament organized by legislature Secretariat, Porvorim in Goa.</p>

<p>Parrikar also discussed topics ranging from drugs,&nbsp;ganja to Porn. Narrating a story of his years in IIT-Mumbai, he said he knew of a small group&nbsp;involved in Ganja during his campus years.</p>

<p>He then went on to talk about the crackdown on drug peddlers in the state and how it will continue to remove drugs from the state.</p>

<p>He talked about how in August 2017 more than 170 peddlers were arrested on his direction.</p>

<p>Goa is notable for its low priced alcohol drinks due to its low excise duty on alcohol and is one of the main sources of the cash inflow in the state.</p>

Manohar Parrikar has sparked an outrage while he was addressing a youth gathering saying he is a worried man these days because girls have started consuming alcohol

Goa chief minister Manohar Parrikar has sparked an outrage on social media after he said that he was a worried man these days because girls have started consuming alcohol while addressing a youth gathering in Goa. "I have begun to fear now because even the girls have started drinking beer. So barrier of that tolerance limit is being crossed..Not all of them. I am not referring to this crowd. I am just referring", he said while addressing state youth parliament organized by legislature Secretariat, Porvorim in Goa. Parrikar also discussed topics ranging from drugs, ganja to Porn. Narrating a story of his years in IIT-Mumbai, he said he knew of a small group involved in Ganja during his campus years. He then went on to talk about the crackdown on drug peddlers in the state and how it will continue to remove drugs from the state. He talked about how in August 2017 more than 170 peddlers were arrested on his direction. Goa is notable for its low priced alcohol drinks due to its low excise duty on alcohol and is one of the main sources of the cash inflow in the state. Twitterati was not behind in trolling Manohar Parrikar over his statement. @manoharparrikar If you think Girls consuming alcohol is bad, time for you to go on a world tour or even north of India#realitycheck#Educateratherrestrict — Ankit Dalal (@dalalankit) February 10, 2018 × Man, this #ManoharParrikar nightmare is spine-chilling. pic.twitter.com/crwDFHuESP — Sayantan Ghosh (@sayantansunnyg) February 10, 2018 × This is @manoharparrikar expounding and reinforcing a stereotype from last century re #women #alcohol #beer The #Feminism movement seems to have skipped him & #Goa @SHEROESIndia @plumpernickel @BDUTT @sagarikaghose @MirchiShivanihttps://t.co/pm5MqHoh2l — Apurv Nagpal (@apurvnagpal) February 10, 2018 × I drink not just beer but vodka and rum as well.. @manoharparrikar do you want Z plus security? — Johanna Lokhande (@jlokhande007) February 10, 2018 × hehe Girls drink beers Manohar Parrikar fears pic.twitter.com/lLQRuRoNOG — Drunk BATMAN (@Caped_Humor) February 10, 2018 × Here Mr. @manoharparrikar! #GirlsDrinkingBeer #girlslovebeer ???? tagging ladies to post more pics ????@Mumbaiguru@Heeral_Savani @soy21 @seems2me Cheers!!???? pic.twitter.com/bux1wZkAsB — Megha Sharma (@Megha75) February 10, 2018 ×

<p>Twitter shares surged 22 per cent at the market open on Thursday after it reported its first quarterly profit and better-than-expected revenue, helped by ads that better-targeted users and sales growth outside the United States.</p>

<p>Investors shrugged off zero growth in Twitter&#39;s users from a quarter earlier, which the company blamed in part on seasonal weakness and its purge of fake and spam accounts.</p>

<p>Shares hit $35 in morning trading, their highest level since July 2015. Twitter debuted as a public company in 2013 at $26 a share.</p>

<p>&quot;The revenue number was up year-over-year for the first time in several quarters, which is a good sign,&quot; analyst Michael Pachter of Wedbush Securities said, adding that flat growth in monthly users from a quarter earlier was nonetheless a warning sign.</p>

<p>US revenue fell 8 per cent from a year earlier, but sales elsewhere rose 17 per cent. Revenue from Japan was a particular strength, rising 34 per cent to $106 million.</p>

<p>The company also continued a push to grow its non-advertising revenue. It reported $87 million in data licensing and other revenue, up 10 per cent from a year earlier, outpacing advertising revenue which rose 1 per cent to $644 million.</p>

<p>Twitter reported a net profit of $91.1 million, or 12 cents per share, compared to a loss of $167.1 million, or 23 cents per share, a year earlier.</p>

<p>US President Donald Trump, who has garnered a large following on social media with rambunctious postings, said he sometimes tweets from bed, though he occasionally allows others to post his words.</p>

<p>Trump frequently uses Twitter to announce policy, assail his adversaries and to tangle with countries, including North Korea, over world affairs. The @realDonaldTrump account had 47.2 million users as of Sunday.</p>

<p>In an interview with Britain&#39;s ITV channel, he appeared to appreciate the wide impact of his postings in Twitter and said that he needed social media to communicate with voters in the era of what he termed fake news.</p>

<p>&quot;If I don&#39;t have that form of communication I can&#39;t defend myself,&quot; Trump said in an interview broadcast on Sunday. &quot;I get a lot of fake news, a lot of news that is very false or made up.&quot;</p>

<p>It was a crazy situation, he said, that many people in the world waited for his tweets. He usually tweets himself, sometimes from bed.</p>

<p>When asked about whether he was lying in bed with his phone thinking of how to wind people up, Trump said: &quot;Well, perhaps sometimes in bed, perhaps sometimes at breakfast or lunch or whatever, but generally speaking during the early morning, or during the evening I can do whatever, but I am very busy during the day, very long hours. I am busy.&quot;</p>

<p>&quot;I will sometimes just dictate out something really quickly and give it to one of my people to put it on,&quot; he said.</p>

<p>Asked about eating burgers and drinking Coke, Trump, 71, said: &quot;I eat fine food, really from some of the finest chefs in the world, I eat healthy food, I also have some of that food on occasion... I think I eat actually quite well.&quot;</p>

<p>Trump said that he was very popular in the United Kingdom. Some British politicians have called for Trump not to visit and 1.86 million people have signed a petition asking for him to be banned from entering the United Kingdom.</p>

<p>Trump would take a &quot;tougher&quot; approach to Brexit negotiations than British Prime Minister Theresa May.</p>

<p>When asked if May was in a &quot;good position&quot; regarding the ongoing Brexit talks, Trump replied: &quot;Would it be the way I negotiate? No, I wouldn&#39;t negotiate it the way it&#39;s [being] negotiated ... I would have had a different attitude.&quot;</p>

<p>Pressed on how his approach would be different, he said: &quot;I would have said the European Union is not cracked up to what it&#39;s supposed to be. I would have taken a tougher stand in getting out.&quot;</p>

<p>Transgender whistleblower Chelsea Manning, jailed for leaking classified information, is seeking election in the US state of Maryland, a document seen on Saturday says.</p>

<p>The Federal Election Commission document, filed Thursday, lists Chelsea Elizabeth Manning of North Bethesda, Maryland, as a Democratic candidate for the United States senate.</p>

<p>Manning, now 30, was an army intelligence analyst sentenced to 35 years in prison in 2013 for leaking more than 700,000 classified documents related to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.</p>

<p>The revelations by Manning, then known as Bradley Manning, exposed covered-up misdeeds and possible crimes by US troops and allies.</p>

<p>Her actions made Manning a hero to anti-war and anti-secrecy activists but US establishment figures branded her a traitor.</p>

<p>Then-president Barack Obama commuted Manning&#39;s sentence, leading to her release in May.</p>

<p>During her incarceration, Manning battled for, and won, the right to start hormone treatment. On Twitter, she identifies herself as a &quot;trans woman,&quot; and carries the slogan: &quot;Make powerful people angry.&quot;</p>

<p>The Democratic Senate incumbent is Ben Cardin, who was first elected in 2006 and is the senior Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.</p>

<p>In elections last year, transgender candidate Danika Roem was elected to the Virginia state House of Delegates, becoming the first openly transgender lawmaker in the United States.</p>

<p>US President Donald Trump has labeled Manning a traitor.</p>

<p>He also tried to bar transgender personnel from the military, but federal courts ruled against that ban.</p>

<p>Facebook Inc Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg and Twitter Inc Chief Executive Jack Dorsey will not seek re-election to Walt Disney Co&#39;s board because of growing conflicts of interest between the media giant and the technology companies, Disney said on Friday.</p>

<p>Disney is moving heavily into online delivery of its TV shows and movies as viewers abandon traditional cable, and at one point had explored an acquisition of Twitter. At the same time, Twitter and Facebook are trying to attract audiences to video content on their platforms.</p>

<p>&quot;Given our evolving business and the businesses Ms. Sandberg and Mr. Dorsey are in, it has become increasingly difficult for them to avoid conflicts relating to board matters, and they are not standing for re-election,&quot; Disney said in a statement.</p>

<p>Lead independent director Orin Smith, former CEO of Starbucks Corp, also will leave Disney&#39;s board, due to rules that specify retirement at age 74, the company said. Former Seagram Company vice chairman Robert Matschullat will depart because of a 15-year term limit.</p>

<p>The departures take effect in March at the time of Disney&#39;s annual meeting, when shareholders will be asked to re-elect 10 other board members. They include General Motors CEO Mary Barra, Nike Inc CEO Mark Parker and Oracle CEO Safra Catz, whose election in December to the board takes effect on Feb. 1.</p>

<p>The board will select a new lead independent director when it meets after the annual meeting, Disney said.</p>

<p>Representatives for Facebook and Twitter had no comment.</p>

<p>Disney also disclosed on Friday that compensation for its chief executive, Robert Iger, declined by 17 per cent in fiscal 2017 to $36.3 million. Iger was awarded a smaller cash bonus due to the &quot;absence of growth&quot; in the year that ended Sept. 30, according to a regulatory filing.</p>

Meghan Markle deletes all social media accounts ahead of marriage to Prince Harry

<p>Vice President of Twitter Bruce Daisley has clarified that if Trump tweets any personal information such as phone number or address of any individual it will caution him to remove that tweet.</p>

<p>Bruce Daisley said this in an interview with BBC radio.</p>

<p>Twitter has been in questions recently for applying terms and conditions selectively, as they refused to delete Trump&#39;s account over hate speech he gives through his tweets.</p>

<p>Daisley said&nbsp;any person who posts personal number or address of anyone would be asked to delete that tweet on which Daisley was asked whether the rule applies on Donald Trump also to that he responded saying yes.</p>

<p>Many tweets of Donald Trump should have been taken seriously by the social media giant which could be equivalent to threats but Twitter has always refused to take any action or even ask Trump to delete his tweets as he is a world leader.</p>

<p>People on social media has been asking to ban Trump&#39;s account or Dorsey to resign after he compared Kim Jong-un nuclear button to his calling it much bigger and more powerful.&quot;</p>

<p>Mudslides unleashed by a ferocious storm demolished homes in southern California and killed at least 13 people, police said Tuesday.</p>

<p>Authorities said the bodies were discovered in mud and debris during rescue operations in Montecito, northwest of Los Angeles.</p>

<p>&quot;We are saddened to report that this incident so far has resulted in 13 confirmed fatalities, as result of the storm that came through our area last night,&quot; Santa Barbara County Sheriff Bill Brown told a news conference, warning that he expected the death toll to increase.</p>

<p>The Santa Barbara County Fire Department said on its Twitter feed it was using dogs to look for victims where multiple homes once stood in Montecito following heavy rain, with more than 20 people reported missing.</p>

<p>The department posted pictures of rivers of waist-high mud flowing through neighbourhoods and roads rendered impassable by fallen trees.</p>

<p>&quot;Firefighters successfully rescued a 14-yr-old girl after she was trapped for hours inside a destroyed home in Montecito,&quot; it added.</p>

<p>Roads were clogged throughout the region with mudflows shutting down more than 30 miles (50 kilometres) of the 101 Freeway and knocking a number of homes from their foundations.</p>

<p>Pounding rain weakened south-facing slopes above Montecito and flooded a creek, sending mud and huge rocks rolling into housing areas.</p>

<p>Emergency services told reporters at least &quot;two dozen&quot; people were missing with &quot;several dozen&quot; homes damaged or destroyed. They said they had rescued scores of residents, including 50 airlifted by hoist.</p>

<p>The highest rainfall total was recorded at five inches (13 centimetres) in Ventura County, according to the National Weather Service Los Angeles.</p>

<p>Much of the affected area is land scorched by the massive Thomas fire last month, where there is no vegetation to soak up the excess water.</p>

<p>About 275 traffic crashes were logged in the California Highway Patrol&#39;s jurisdiction in Los Angeles County during the morning commute -- compared with just 30 reported collisions during the same period on Tuesday last week.</p>

<p>An evacuation order was issued in a section of the Los Angeles suburb of Burbank, which was hit by a mudslide that pulled cars out of driveways and carried them downstream.</p>

<p>The slide also caused a &quot;significant&quot; gas leak, and repair efforts left homes on the street with no gas, electricity or water.&nbsp;</p>

<p>&quot;There were many homes, about 40 to 45 homes, affected by it, a couple homes damaged,&quot; Burbank Fire Department Battalion Chief John Owings told local TV news channel KCAL9.</p>

<p>&quot;We performed two physical rescues at approximately 7 o&#39;clock this morning.&quot; &nbsp; &nbsp;</p>

<p>At Los Angeles International Airport, flooding forced the closure of the customs area in Terminal 2.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Forecasters warned that while the rain had appeared to subside by late morning, more showers and isolated thunderstorms were expected through the evening, with periods of very heavy rain.</p>

<p>The storm came after a 10-month dry spell in the area following torrential rains in January and February of last year. In &nbsp;2017, downtown Los Angeles experienced its driest March 1 through December 31 since 1878, with only 0.69 of an inch of rainfall, according to the National Weather Service. &nbsp;</p>

Mudslides unleashed by a ferocious storm demolished homes in southern California and killed at least 13 people, police said Tuesday. Authorities said the bodies were discovered in mud and debris during rescue operations in Montecito, northwest of Los Angeles.
