Scientists at Nottingham University in Great Britain have found a way to increase the chances of giving birth to a baby girl--become a vegetarian. Typically in Britain, 106 boys are born for every 100 girls. But among vegetarian mothers, just 85 boys were born for every 100 girls. Researcher Pauline Hudson says that one reason for this may be the additional stress placed on the body by a vegetarian diet. Female foetuses, which are hardier, survive, while male foetuses die (source: BBC News). Suggested new cattle industry ad slogan: "Want boys? Eat steak."
A meatless diet could cause genital defects in boys, a Bristol University study has found. Researchers found that boys born to vegetarian moms are five times more likely to suffer from an affliction called hypospadias. In normal males, the urethra opens at the tip of the penis. Hyspospadias is when the urethra opens below the tip and requires surgery to remedy (source: BBC News).
Read this story and you'll never stay in a Russian psychiatric hospital again. During World War II, Soviet soldiers dropped an unbalanced Hungarian infantryman off at a mental facility rather than bother taking him to a Siberian prison camp. The Hungarian spoke no Russian, and because of this, received no treatment. He was ignored for almost 60 years. Finally, a few months ago, a Hungarian official happened on him by accident. The soldier had to be convinced to return to his homeland--he
believed that war was still raging outside (source: Reuters). We apologize for losing the name of the poor guy in today's office
commotion.
Network Solutions, the company that processes most domain name requests, says that a new dot.com company name is registered every 3.9 seconds ( Network Solutions). Let's see. That's about 15 new registrations per minute @ , I believe, $70 each, or more than $1,000 per minute. Which means about $60,000 an hour. That's over $1,440,000 per day that Network Solutions is receiving from aspiring dot.com entrepreneurs. Unless my quick calculations are off, maybe the best way to get rich is selling shovels to gold miners. Or am I wrong on this?
Kevin Bacon admits that actors like to be ogled by their adoring public. But Bacon says that when it comes to walking into a drugstore to buy a tube of Preparation H, he doesn't want us to see him (source: Maxim magazine).
