Which Signs Are the Best Drivers? And the Worst?

by Nancy Fenn

Please don't shoot the messenger, but Suncorp Metway, Ltd., a
multi-faceted Australian Financial Service, ranked car accident
claimants by Sun sign in a study of 160,000 accident claims over the
previous three-year period. This is what they found.

• Restless Geminis Behind the Wheel

The number one worst drivers were Geminis, "typically described as
restless, easily bored and frustrated by things moving slowly,"
explained Warren Duke, Suncorp's national manager of personal insurance.
"They had more car accidents than any other sign."

No astrologer would argue with that description of the sign of the Twins
and probably this isn't very surprising news. But who's the best?

• And the Winners Are...Capricorns

Capricorns. Duke says, "Capricornians [ sic ], who came last on the
list, [are] typically described as patient and careful."

No argument with that from the professional astrologer. It's no surprise
Caps are the safest behind the wheel. They're the safest at everything!
Their patience and sense of responsibility are legendary.

The One Lie That Half of All Women Tell

Women are so obsessed with their bodies--in a negative, unhealthy
way--that fully half of them admit to lying about their weight and
almost a third cut the size labels out of their clothing. What's more
women want to lose on average 19 pounds. That's the word from a new poll
of more than 5,000 women for Britain's Grazia magazine that found that
only one in 50 women is actually happy with the way her body looks.
Perhaps the most alarming findings are that most women worry about their
body every 15 minutes, while almost one-third worry about how they look
"every waking minute," reports the BBC News.
Look out, ladies! Find out the three types of lies men most often
tell--and them tell them about 10 percent of the time.

Here are other disturbing findings from the Grazia poll:
--Seven out of 10 women think life would improve if they had a "better"
body.
--If a woman steps on the scale in the morning and sees she is two
pounds heavier, it can ruin her day.
--Women have tried a range of extreme measures, including laxatives and
fasting, to lose weight.
--Virtually all the respondents said they had dieted at one point in
their lives with 41 percent admitting they constantly watch what they
eat.

What are the most hated body parts?
Thighs: 87 percent
Waist: 79 percent
Breasts: 65 percent
Feet: 65 percent
Face: 59 percent
Teeth: 57 percent
What body parts do women like? Only one: Fifty-four percent cited their
"slimmish ankles."

Because women are so harshly critical of their bodies, their
relationship with food is filled with contradictions. Grazia editor Jane
Bruton told the BBC News, "We might have a Diet Coke with a doughnut or
skip lunch because we're going out for dinner. Many women are constantly
thinking 'Shall I eat it? Shall I not eat it?'"

Are concerns such as this an illness? The U.K.'s Eating Disorders
Association says no. However, anorexia and bullimia typically begin when
a woman has a "distorted" body image. "We all have days where we think
we shouldn't have that extra biscuit. That's very different to having a
psychological illness, which is what an eating disorder is," Susan
Ringwood, chief executive of the Eating Disorders Association told the
BBC. "But all eating disorders begin with a distorted relationship with
food and how you feel about your body."

Sure! Why not?

This war is an Urban War not like Vietnam which was both an urban and
Jungle war. Politicians saying what to do and not letting the Military
do their job. Business as usual of course. Not much difference of
course.

This is what I found too:

The Hells Angels have a more prominent presence in much of Canada than
in most of the United States.

I wonder if this is it?:

In December 1944, Hitler launched a desperate massive counterstrike at
the Allies, with 38 German divisions slamming through American lines.
Then the 101st Airborne was thrown into the fight. Fresh from 72 brutal
days of combat in Holland, with little food and ammunition, the
Screaming Eagles struck back - and stunned the German forces. Then the
real battle for the town of Bastogne - and its seven key roads -
began...
This powerful, action-packed memoir puts us in the middle of the
legendary fighting force known as the Screaming Eagles. Along the way,
Donald R. Burgett, just 19 years old at the time of the battle, vividly
captures some of the most horrific action of World War II. From
point-blank tank assaults to hand-to-hand combat, Private Burgett and
his cold, hungry, and wounded fellow paratroopers stood against an
overwhelming enemy force - and won the battle that secured victory for
the Allies in World War II.

Sounds good to me so far.

Sooo!

We accept Mexicans illegal but not Canadians who are willing to go
though the process. How strange.

May it be cause the terrorist Came from Canada? Hardly an excuse for not
allowing a neighbor from the North to enter to be productive citizen.

AVG is free anti virus program.

I use it myself. A little tricky to use but good for free.

How ever I also like Avast anti-Visus too. Very good and easy to use.

Sorry hun. But wrong on that one.

How did we cause earth quake?

How did we cause Volcano eruptions?

Global warming is a naturel process.
As I said I will educate you about what is happening to the earth that(
If you are reaccepting enough).

The earth is going though a large scale change which as been going on
for generations.
It's a natural process. That is what may have killed the dinos.

There are other theories too.

I know that the earth is shifting it's magnetic poles. Scientist have
noticed that the earth's magnetic field is getting weaker.

Rapidly too.

This is foundout due to the shift in the earths magnetic poles. So
really the earths core is slowing now( causing the magnetic field to
slow down.)is a natural perches. It did it before.

This is not due to human intervention by pollution.

Here's a link to what I ma saying.

Hope you find this educational hun.

Have a good week.
