...reunite the cast of the 2001 film: Diesel as superdriver Dominic Toretto, Paul Walker as FBI agent Brian O'Conner, Jordana Brewster as Dom's sister Mia and Michelle Rodriguez as his girlfriend Letty. Iconographically, the two male leads balance nicely, since Walker boasts California good looks - half surfer boy, half altar boy - and a face that reads as clean-shaven even with his careful stubble. And Diesel and M-Rod are a perfect pair. She showed off her muscular arms in Girlfight nearly a decade before America fixated on Michelle Obama's pythons, while Diesel has biceps the size...

I cannot be close. I come to remind me how far it is I must...
...country's development, leaving nearly half of its population living below the poverty line and an average Nepali farmer earning roughly $300 a year. By contrast, Gurkha privates in the British army take home $28,000 a year. "Becoming a Gurkha soldier is a burning ambition for every hill boy," said Tamang's father, Saharman Tamang, 50, who served the British army for 12 years. "Those who make it are hailed as the 'lucky ones.' Money is not the only draw. Those recruited are whisked away to be educated, trained, shown the world and provided with a decent life...
