Possibly invented by women to get back into shape after childbirth, this ancient art is a good workout for women and certainly enjoyable for men to watch. Benefits are that it can be practiced at home what with the advent of instructional videos, one need not go out to the gym or dance floor to excercise. from the article: "...I have recently been searching for a good way to re-start a fitness routine. I have always been bored to tears by treadmills and exercise bikes and am unlikely to attend a class due to the demands at home."

Manhole covers don't have to be merely heavy plain disks to metal; they can be ornate and decorative. Some older varieties before the era of modern lighting have glass jewels inset to provide light from above to below.
And did you know that there may possibly even be a manhole cover orbiting Earth at this very moment? An 'experiment' during the early days of nuclear weapons testing may have blasted a 700-lbs. manhole cover into Earth orbit! "...cast-iron manhole covers come in many assorted designs and patterns meant solely to decorate the street above. While collecting manhole covers as a hobby is impractical due to their weight and size, people can and do as a hobby collect images of them from around the world."

There are insects called "botflies" that lay their eggs upon a warm-blooded mammalian host (including humans) whereby they hatch, and the larvae burrow beneith the skin and live for up to a year, drinking the blood and fluids as they mature... "...There are about 150 species of hairy flies that are known to be parasitic to mammals. Notably there is the Dermatobia hominus, the human botfly. This is going to be nasty folks."

Are women's beauty magazines really cleaverly designed for a purpose other than informating women on beauty topics? Does the latest issue of your favorite beauty magazine really prove that woman's fashion magazines are really cleverly designed sex manuals?Is it a secret that women really purchase fashion magazines more for the sexual advice, and less for the beauty and health tips?

A lot of people rely on a spell check which, although can be useful, shouldn't really be relied on as it only picks up on words that are spelt wrong and not wrongly spelt!
Like, a spell check ain't going to tell you ti change 'there' if you meant 'their', as far as it is concerned it is right, when it's not. Does that make sense? I think so. lol
You all need to check your spelling for mistakes. Bet you are happy that you have a spell checker.

"There are means and there are ways; and there mean ways". These leaders of countries and empires definately fit into the latter. These are some of the most despicable leaders in history - hard to short list at 15, but a valiant job here for sure. If there is one thing that history has shown, it is that bad people exist and often rise to the top. There have been many outright evil characters who have gained significant control of the political workings in their country and impacted the course of world history with their wicked ways. This list presents some of the worst offenders of breaking the sacred trust that is given by the public to a leader or national figurehead. These are bad men and women who have done bad things, which we as a global civilization will hopefully learn from. Hopefully.

The work of a genuis or madman? Some guy went and stuffed a sausage roll with a Cheesy Double Beef Burrito from Taco Bell. Sure it's grade D (for delicious) meat, but, wait -- where's the bacon wrap? Pfft, and I almost called you a genius.

For thousands of years mankind has cherished a belief that the
individual identity survives after the death of the body, although
evidence for this belief is as rare as the phoenix. The communication may take the form of a direct message conveyed psychically by one friend to the other, a message sent through a medium, or even an intuition or conviction by one friend that the other is dead. Christie-Murray keeps a register of everyone taking part in the scheme and will investigate any messages that are received.

‘Sleep that knits up the raveled sleave of care, The death of each
day’s life, sore labor’s bath, Balm of hurt minds, great nature’s second course, Chief nourisher in life's feast.’ With these words, spoken by the murderer-king Macbeth, William Shakespeare voiced a view taken up by poets and philosophers through the centuries: sleep is good for you. Accepted as commonplace for so long, it is probably taken for granted. However, only recently has medical science started to investigate thoroughly the restorative powers of sleep.

When a policeman became suspicious and took a closer look, to his
amazement he saw that the man’s nose, lips, ears and fingers were
bright blue. The patient was rushed to Beekman Downtown Hospital; by
the time the ambulance arrived, the blueness had spread over all of his
body. The doctor who examined the vagrant noted that he was in a severe state of shock and suffering from diarrhea. The doctor concluded that the patient’s blue color was due to an insufficient supply of oxygen in the blood, probably the result of carbon monoxide poisoning from an automobile engine or a gas pipe.
During the next nine hours, 10 more sufferers were brought to the hospital with the same peculiar symptoms. Following heart massage, stomach pumping, and oxygen, most recovered; the last to arrive was blue all over and could not be saved.
All victims were elderly down-and-outers and had fallen ill in different locations around the city. Finally it was established that all had eaten breakfast at the same run-down cafeteria, the Eclipse.
