McCartney Divorce Becoming Troublesome The divorce lawyers for the Prince of Wales and Diana, Princess of Wales, have been hired by Sir Paul McCartney and his estranged wife in what is shaping up to be one of the most expensive and high- profile partings since the collapse of the royal marriage.

How Many Gay MPs Are There? The answer to the question of how many gay MPs there are is “between five and two hundred, depending on what you mean”. Matthew Parris

Women Want Easy Life And Luxury A new survey has revealed that a generation of young women are rejecting high-flying careers in favour of a life of ease and luxury.

Yep: They want to get themselves impregnated by wealthy men and then sit back and reap the benefits - courtesy of our corrupt and unjust legal systems which allow women to rip men off with ease.

And the following is a true anecdote, ...

Four days ago I was chatting to an extremely plesant young lady who is going off to University next term. She is a hard-working girl who is well-behaved and decent.

"And what are you hoping to do with your degree?" I asked her.

"To marry someone rich," she laughed.

"You don't really mean that," I said.

"Oh yes I do", she replied. "I'm not going to work for thirty years."

Liberty Vs The Prospect Of Terrorism There is a mortal danger aimed at the heart of Britain. Or so says Home Secretary Charles Clarke. My reaction? So what? Frederick Forsyth

The Lord Chancellor has defended government plans to introduce control orders to keep foreign and British terrorist suspects under house arrest, where there isn't enough evidence to put them on trial.

Of particular interest to me is that, at the time of writing, out of the 48 comments posted after the article by the BBC about this issue, only ONE comes from a woman. And this, I think, reveals something of significance!

Call For Women's Prison Closures The group favours community programmes over prison sentencesA programme of women's prison closures should begin in an attempt to reduce re-offending, a lobby group has said.

Aussie Prime Minister Leads The Way John Howard is squaring up to this cultural ultra-Leftism — more commonly known as political correctness — and facing it down. His counterparts in Britain, by contrast, queue up to abase themselves before it. Melanie Phillips

Single Households Waste Energy Sole occupancy households in England and Wales are said to use the most space and power per capita.

And who is to blame? Ah yes, ...

... with males aged 35-45 being the worst offenders.

And one proposed solution is to, ...

... encourage people to live more space-efficiently with the introduction of an occupancy tax.

But, as Leslie points out, this is just ... "More anti male propaganda - as a visit to any woman's bathroom will illustrate - the oil used to produce the bottles for her cosmetics alone uses a ton of energy. And women, of course, have the god given right to 'shop'. Further, no comparisons are made with women's consumption - how about all those single mothers? And obviously a single young man will use more than a 60 year old!"

Hungry Men Prefer Fatter Women The hungry men also paid much less attention to a woman's body shape and they regarded less curvy figures as more attractive.

The hungry men rated more of the heavier women as attractive than the men who were full up.

Maybe they wanted to eat them!

How To Get Rich If you cannot face up to your fear of failure, you will never be rich.

Beautiful Parents Have Girls “Beautiful parents have more daughters than ugly parents, because physical attractiveness is heritable and because daughters benefit from attractiveness more than sons."

Girl Arrested For Pinging A Bra She was fingerprinted, subjected to DNA testing, bailed and finally hauled before magistrates at Huntingdon Youth Court.

Duke University Fiasco If the government’s players were honest, decent people, this case would be non-existent. William Anderson

Tougher Sentences - For Men Only Sweeping changes to the criminal justice system, including scrapping "soft" sentences introduced only last year, were announced yesterday by John Reid, the Home Secretary, in the latest attempt to restore public confidence in his embattled department.

At the same time, he suggested that other prisoners, particularly women, foreign nationals and the mentally ill, should not be in jail and that measures would be taken to reduce their number.

Boys Unable And Unwilling To Read Studies have long shown that boys in the United States and around the world do not read or write as well as girls. There are several reasons. Robert Roy Britt

"There is no literacy gap in home-schooled boys and girls."

Open hostility mixed with positive reinforcement, ie. smiles, praise, and trivial reward (catering to, encouraging an eager to please attitude). Seeing that ugly insincere face became a rather large distraction resulting in agitating all of the boys in the class.


She was openly hostile to all the boys (83' grade seven, northern Ontario, a lesser mainly first nations school).

A crazy coot who'd have us make a semi-circle with our desks boys at the front and girls observing from the side, (almost beyond peripheral vision) then have the most developed girl jump rope... this kind of study went on for a year and a half with no benefit to the boys and some very hard feelings for the girls.

She went even nutty for a while and found solace within the safety of sedation and rubber walls. After 'second birth' and a phd write a few papers and began teaching again. There's a few of us who'd like to visit the ol' bat and get even, I don't honestly know why we don't.

I've always been an avid reader and am one of those who make a far too many grammar and spelling errors (unless I take a break for ½ hr and proof read). Even after many rereads I tend to fill in the details without consciously observing the mistakes.

It can be overcome if I concentrate word by word but is a slow and tedious process. Taking from a few days to a few weeks to pick up to normal speed. Greater accuracy needs to be constantly reinforced, shows signs of degradation in days and is completely lost within a few weeks.

Physical activity can play a large role on mental ability as well. Light to heavy activity seems to make medium to heavier reading and writing overwhelmingly burdensome.

IMO, reading slowly is a pleasure and an art if you can enjoy the content. An experience almost uncomfortably close to short term memory.

Beautiful Parents Have Girls?

I guess they're saying that attractive men have more XX swimmers then XY swimmers? Guys who determine the gender of the baby and is no way biologically influence by women; most likely by the health of the swimmers and numbers of XX and XY carriers.

heh, is there commercial interests influencing the numbers and because it's a guys body, it's his right, especially where privacy is concerned. She'd never have to know. No real purpose in mentioning this other then sending the trite supremacists into raving bouts of hysteria.

Same author as above. (the 'science' is disgusting by these kinds of folk, eh?)

Perhaps a point of concern.

India has a very high hermaphrodite birth rate and faces enormous amounts industrial pollution. High estrogen levels (a byproduct of paper mills) in the Great Lakes (North America) is seeing hermaphrodite aquatic life although the change seems to be happening after birth.

Out of curiosity, does estrogen influence the XX and XY swimmers in da' boys hanging down below? If not, what other factors influence the population? Tight jockies, tight pants, in love, bitterness, stress, etc... ? If there's an logical evolutionary response, perhaps stress could lead to greater numbers of XY's.
