Tips Driving a Car



Watch you hands - While driving straight, your hands should be at 3 and 9 o'clock or 4 and 8 o'clock on the steering wheel.

Side Windows - Your side windows should be all the way up or all the way down.

Lock Your Doors - A closed car door will help keep your arms, legs and head inside the vehicle.

Back In - Since about one-third of driving incidents involving officers on duty occur when the cruiser is in reverse, cops are instructed to back into parking spaces when they're not under pressure. You should do the same thing. The main advantage for you is that it's much easier to see -- and avoid -- cross traffic when pulling forward out of a parking space.

Back Up - Find an empty parking lot. Using traffic cones, PVC pipe, or soft drink cans, mark a 9-foot wide parking space that "T"s into an 8-foot-wide traffic lane. (Hint: Put a little extra fudge room opposite the parking space.)

Lights Down - Preserve your night vision by turning down the dash lights to the minimum required to safely read the speedometer. It's much more important to see what's outside the car. Over-bright dash lights do nothing save hurt your night vision.

Top 3 Alarm Clock

Here’s a selection of three alarm clocks which, in any way, will surely wake you up. Or force you to.

1. Crazy Blender Alarm Clock

It’s a blender! No, it’s an alarm clock! Yes, this clock, upon alarming, will turn the blender on and let it start blending the Styrofoam beads inside. If the buzzing sound doesn’t wake you up, there are still up to four funny background music as well.

2. Puzzle Alarm Clock

It is said that the best time to practise your brain is in the morning, right after you wake up. This alarm clock is probable made based on that theory. At the specified time, it will “blow” several pieces of puzzle, and until you rearrange the pieces at the correct places, the damn thing will keep ringing.

3. Golf Alarm Clock

Although there’s something wrong with the concept — a golf ball that should be thrown to the wall, instead of hit it with a stick, to shut the alarm off — it’s still cool anyway. Like others, until you use all your morning energy to throw the clock, the alarm sound won’t turn off.

4. more alarm clock.

Blackbirds Evolving Uptown

Many male blackbirds in Europe no longer migrate to the south.

More than a century ago, some European Blackbirds gave up the commuting life. The traditional routine was to nest in northern forests but head for southern Europe or northern Africa at the first sign of winter. Then some populations discovered that winter in the city isn't half-bad: The microclimate is warm with plenty of tasty leftovers. So strong is the appeal of city life, according to a research team in Germany, that it is has not only changed the blackbirds' behavior, but their genetics, too.more

WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. - One of two humpback whales surfaces in the Port of Sacramento in West Sacramento, Calif., Thursday, May 17, 2007. Scientists were sent whale noises into the water in an effort to attract the whales, believed to be a mother and her calf, back down the river and to the ocean.

Biologists tried unsuccessfully Thursday to use recorded siren songs of humpback whales to lure an injured female and her wounded calf from a shipping channel and back toward the Pacific Ocean 90 miles away. more

The Puppy Sale

On Making Decisions

Tom Toles used the ridiculous hand-wringing over global warming to make his point with this carton, but it could easily describe how some organizations respond to a shifting marketplace.

Going Wild Cherry

Why are most washers and dryers white? Historically, it's because if one appliance dies, a replacement of any make or model will match the other mate. Since most laundry rooms or closets are out of sight, most manufacturers don't think twice about style or color. It's as if the the industry is run by Henry Ford.

So when I went shopping for a new washer and dryer last weekend, I saw the usual row after row of white appliances. An occasional gray model broke the monotony, but not by much.

Then, pow! A LG TROMM Steamwasher and dryer painted a wild cherry red stunned me with its remarkable presence. It was just like seeing an eye-popping car among hundreds of ones that look virtually the same. The red paint sparkled. The buttons were high-polish chrome. The Batman-level features were sexy. Sexy!

They were a bit more expensive than the standard white ones nearby, but the LG's became the new standard by which to judge all others. Red struck a chord. Red stuck.

A washer and dryer is not an impulse purchase, so like 87% of most Americans, I went home and Googled the LG's up and down. The word of mouth held up. Much of the online buzz was about the washer's SteamFresh Cycle, which uses steam to remove wrinkles and odors or just refresh clothes. Even the clerk at another store who sold a high-end German brand conceded he hears few complaints about the LG's.

A red washer and dryer is not for everyone. You might even be saying, "A red washer and dryer? How stupid. Why pay more for a fancy paint job?" But, of course, people hundreds or thousands of dollars for watches that do the exact same thing as a $16 Timex does. Homogeneity is not the pathway to word of mouth. Incorporating wild cherry word of mouth into the DNA of a product is the first step.

MySpace Deleting Sex Offender Profiles


The MySpace profiles of a "few thousand" convicted sex offenders have been removed, the popular social networking site said Tuesday. But the company says it will not hand over the users' names to states requesting the data.

The company had previously announced a program in December that will identify and block sex offenders that were attempting to use the site. Called Sentinel Safe, the technology matches information on profiles with a database of about 550,000 sex offenders nationwide.

MySpace is also being pressured by the Attorneys General of eight states to hand over information on sex offenders using the site by May 29, although the company is declining to do so. It claims both federal and state laws prohibit the release of such information.

Those states requesting the release of data were: Connecticut, Georgia, Idaho, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Mississippi and New Hampshire.

"We are doing everything short of breaking the law to ensure that the information about these predators gets to the proper authorities," chief security officer Hemanshu Nigam said. "MySpace has zero tolerance for sexual predators which is why we devoted a team of engineers to work around the clock with Sentinel Tech."

The software has been active for only about two weeks, yet MySpace claims it had already found and removed the profile of every registered sex offender from its more than 175 million profiles.

Lobbyists working on behalf of MySpace are asking for federal laws that would require sex offenders to register their e-mail address, making it easier for companies like MySpace to scan for their presence.

Every Woman is Beautiful.

A little boy asked his mother "Why are you crying?"
  
"Because I'm a woman," she told him.

"I don't understand," he said.
  
His mum just hugged him and said, "And you never will"
  
Later the little boy asked his father,
"Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?"
  
"All women cry for no reason," was all his dad could say.
 
The little boy grew up and became a man,
still wondering why women cry.
 
Finally he put in a call to God;
and when God got on the phone,
he asked, "God, why do women cry so! easily?"
 
God said: "When I made the woman she had to be special.
I made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world;
yet, gentle enough to give comfort"
 
"I gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth
and the rejection that many times comes from her children"
 
"I gave her a hardness that allows
her to keep going when everyone else gives up,
and take care of her family through sickness
and fatigue without complaining "
 
"I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any
and all circumstances, even when her child has hurt her very badly"
 
 
"I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults
and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart"
 
"I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife,
but sometimes tests her strengths
and her resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly"
 
"And finally, I gave her a tear to shed.
This is hers exclusively to use whenever it is needed.

"You see: The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears,
the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair."!

"The beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes,
because that is the doorway to her heart
* the place where love resides."


Please send this to all the beautiful women
you know today in celebration of Women's History Month.
If you do, something good will happen.
You will boost another woman's self-esteem!



Every Woman is Beautiful.

Brightest Supernova Ever

The brightest star explosion ever seen has been spotted about 240 million light-years away in the constellation Perseus, researchers announced yesterday.

The distant event, which so far has remained brighter than an ordinary supernova for more than 200 days, likely represents a new and extremely rare type of star death that occurs only in supermassive stars.

"It's no surprise that a very massive star will eventually collapse," David Pooley, an astrophysicist at the University of California, Berkeley, and co-author of a new study on the supernova, said during a press briefing.

But what surprised scientists is that the brightness of the explosion couldn't be explained by the faint amount of x-rays emitted by the blast.

Normally when a large star dies, the explosion sends shockwaves through surrounding cooler gases, creating regions that emit large amounts of x-rays—the source of a supernova's light.

But the explosion of SN 2006gy, which is thought to be nearly 150 times as massive as the sun, showed few x-rays.

This suggests that the light is being produced from hot material being ejected into space.

"This would require a new type of [explosion] mechanism that has been produced theoretically but never observed," study leader Nathan Smith said at the briefing.

The finding has ramifications for Eta Carinae, the most massive star in our galaxy, which lies just 7,400 light years away.

This star, estimated to be 100 to 120 times the sun's mass, has been experiencing preliminary eruptions that could mean it will explode in a manner similar to SN 2006gy.

If such a supernova occurred in our galaxy, "it would be so bright that you could see it [from Earth] during the day and you could even read a book by its light at night," Pooley said. more

King Herod's Tomb Said Found Near Jerusalem


May 8, 2007After more than 30 years of searching, Hebrew University professor Ehud Netzer today announced that he and his partners have unearthed the remains of King Herod the Great's grave, sarcophagus, and mausoleum, solving one of Israel's great archaeological mysteries.

Shown here is the general area of what he says is Herod's tomb, uncovered at the elaborate Herodium complex about 9 miles (15 kilometers) south of Jerusalem.

Remains of many structures that once covered the tomb area, as well as passages leading to underground water wells, can be seen all around the excavation site.

8 Ways To Be Sexy Girl at The Beach

Looking for sexy girls to play at the beach? Here are some helpful tips:

You should bring some very important equipment that you'll use in meeting and picking up sexy girls at the beach. These are as follows:
  1. ICE CHEST - This is your most important item. Fill it with beer, wine, mixed drinks in a can and soft drinks. You'll use this to offer sexy girls a drink at the beach.
  2. BLANKET - Bring a blanket big enough for you and a sexy girl to lay on. Make sure it's clean and attractive.
  3. FRISBEE, VOLLEYBALL, BEACH BALL, FOOTBALL - With these you can approach a girl and ask, "Want to play?"
  4. RADIO - This comes in handy. What to do is lay near a girl or group of sexy girls and turn on your radio. Then you ask, "What station would you like to hear?" This opens the door for further conversation and opportunities to get to know a girl and make your moves.
  5. BODY SURFING BOARD - They are inexpensive and made of styrofoam. Buy two of them. Approach a girl and ask if she'd like to do some body surfing.
  6. SURFBOARD - If you do surf this can be an advantage in meeting sexy girls. Some girls are very attracted to surfers. Most girls don't know how to surf and have never even been on a surfboard. If you do surf, all you have to do is approach a girl and ask her, "would you like to learn how to surf?"
  7. SUNTAN OIL - Here's one that will always work. Approach a girl you are attracted to and ask her, "Would you rub some suntan oil on my back?" You'll never get turned down (as a general rule) and it really feels good having a girl rubbing your back.
  8. While walking on the beach looking for single girls for romance, when a girl catches your eye, give her a warm smile and say, "Hi." If she responds, whatever you do don't keep walking by. Stop immediately and start talking to her. Invite her over to your blanket and offer her something to drink or you can invite her to go in the water. Also, you can ask her if she wants to play some beach sports such as frisbee, volleyball, beach ball, body surfing, etc.

If you pass sexy girls at the beach that you're interested in and she has her eyes closed, just approach her and say, "Weren't you on the cover of Cosmo?" She will be flattered and this opens up a conversation.

In conclusion, I hope I've given you some new ideas you have never thought of before on how to meet and pick up hot & beautiful sexy girls at the beach. Happy Hunting!

Coffee's pros and cons

"We're coming from a situation where coffee had a very negative health image," Dr. Rob van Dam of the Harvard School of Public Health, who has conducted studies on coffee consumption and diabetes, told Reuters Health. Nevertheless, he added, "it's not like we're promoting coffee as the new health food and asking people who don't like coffee to drink coffee for their health." more
