PARIS (Reuters) – A Paris man who registered 55 by 55 different mothers faces up to 10 years in jail and fines for suspected paternity fraud and for helping to obtain residency under false pretences, police said on Friday.

The 54 year-old of African origin, who authorities did not identify, was arrested in his two-room flat in Paris during a police raid which yielded documents showing more than 50 people were registered as living at that address.

Police suspect the man was involved in a social benefits scam which could have been costing the state over 1 million euros ($1.27 million) annually in claims by the mothers.

"At the moment 42 women have been identified and each claim that the man is the biological father of their ," Paris police said in a statement.

Authorities said the man claimed he met the women at bars, night spots and occasionally during visits to their home countries, including Senegal, Cameroon and Mali.

For a fee of 150 to 200 euros, he registered the and their mothers with French authorities, enabling them to obtain residency permits and claim social benefits.

Some of the mothers told authorities they had received up to about 7,500 euros on various monthly allowances.

"Investigations are on-going and an investigating magistrate will decide whether DNA tests have to be administered to determine the 's paternity," a police spokesman said.

I bought a pack of room deodorizers, they are small glass dish with some kind of fragrance gel in it, on the pack it said it will last for 30 days..

well, I placed it in the bathroom "last night", this morning, as I was grooming, I looked over at the dish, and it was "empty"..
this silly thing, did not even last 24 hrs.

"Cheap Stuff" !!!!!

I will be even more selective now about buying stuff. learning is always an ongoing process... and cheap stuff can make one learn even more quickly

here's a paradox...



could this simply mean, "Buyer's Beware"

!!

because..... not always will you get what you pay for

but, there is one area, that may crash the concept..
"Cheap sex', if its cheap, it can still be made into something remarkable, because it always comes down to what you make of it to be.

Now on the funny side of things, if it comes to Cheap Sex, I'd prefer a 100 , to a 1000 dollar any day of the week.. because when they undress, both of them are still a 'woman", with "generic organs, and as long as they are nice in personality, clean in hygiene, have a honest nature of character as an individual, and appreciate what they are doing, then, it is what it is.

The new airplane seat, to be unveiled next week at the Aircraft Interiors Expo Americas conference in Long Beach, would give passengers an experience akin to riding horseback.

They'd sit at an angle with no more than 23 inches between their perch and the seat in front of them — a design that could appeal to low-cost airlines that have floated the idea of offering passengers standing-room tickets on short flights.

More Drama, but Less Intimidation

By Steve Sutcliffe
Theoretically the 2010 Ferrari 599XX could be regarded as the greatest four-wheel folly of all time. After all, this is a car that will never be raced and must never be driven on the road. And since just 29 examples will be built over the next two years, you will almost certainly never see one. And did we mention that it costs $1.8 million?

But this folly might be the most important Ferrari in 10 years. In fact, it could be the most important Ferrari for the next 10 years, because this car is a test bed for the new automotive technologies under development at Ferrari right now.

So think of the 2010 Ferrari 599XX as the Maranello company's prime research and development project, a kind of NASA space shuttle, only painted red. The 599XX will determine the course of Ferrari's evolution in the next decade, and do so in public, where we can all bear witness to the successes and failures.

Breaking the Sound Barrier

Among all the dynamic barriers broken by the 2010 Ferrari 599XX, one particular achievement stands out. And this is that the 599XX is a full 10 seconds quicker around the Ferrari test track than the exotic Ferrari Enzo, quite an accomplishment by a conventional front-engine, rear-wheel-drive automobile.

OK, so the 599XX runs on full racing slicks, 305/30R19 front and 325/35R19 rear Michelins. This probably accounts for 4 of the 10 seconds, but the remaining 6 seconds of speed come from more power, less weight, improved aerodynamics, an advanced braking system and an array of new electronic driving aids. In fact, the 599XX incorporates more racing technology than any car that has ever turned a wheel outside of a Formula 1 paddock.

It starts with the 599XX's 5,999cc V12, which has had its internals "super polished" to reduce friction, a measure that helps increase its output to 720 horsepower at 9,000 rpm and 505 pound-feet of torque at 6,500 rpm. The software for the automated manual transmission has been rewritten to produce slightly faster upshifts and much quicker downshifts, and it will shift down to whatever gear it thinks you need with just one pull on the paddle, just like a Formula 1 car. The lightweight carbon-ceramic brakes carry ferrous-iron brake pads for better modulation. Meanwhile, the car weighs just 3,153 pounds, so it has physics on its side.

The 599X also has aerodynamics on its side. We're not just talking about a few extra wings and skirts here and there. In the 599XX's trunk there is a pair of fans that actively suck air up and away from the rear aero diffuser between 30 mph and 155 mph, creating more downforce without adding more aerodynamic drag. The 599XX has 12 percent more downforce than a Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, yet it has 15 percent less drag, making it 30 percent more efficient overall aerodynamically.

2010 Ferrari 599XX

The driving aids are controlled by two small manettino dials that sit on the center stack of instruments, not on the steering wheel. One offers three different settings for the American-designed magnetorheological dampers, while the other lets you select from no fewer than nine different programs for the stability control, compared to five on the 599 GTB Fiorano. In this car, the driving aids are not safety measures but instead performance parts, meant to enable the driver to go as fast as possible.

You might just be able to match the stability control system for a couple of corners, but over an entire lap the electronics will win every time. And that's why the XX is half a second quicker around Fiorano with the system engaged, even in the hands of Ferrari's most skillful test driver.

More Drama, but Less Intimidation

Just like the 2005 Ferrari FXX, the modified Ferrari Enzo that tested much of the technology that later found its way to the Ferrari 458 Italia, the 599XX is meant to be used at Ferrari-sponsored track events where a phalanx of Ferrari mechanics will take care of the car, so you get pretty much the same deal that Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa get on a Formula 1 race weekend.

It's a little nerve-racking to be strapped into the 599XX while a crowd of mechanics in scarlet overalls looks on, but this is very much how Ferrari wants you to feel. After all, the 599XX has as much downforce as a GT2-specification Ferrari F430 racing car for the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the same selection of driving aids as a 2007 Formula 1 car, so the experience should be hugely dramatic, very loud and mind-numbingly fast.

And yet the experience is not remotely intimidating. Quite the opposite, in fact. Inside the cabin, the 599XX feels like half road car, half racer, with a viselike bucket seat to hold you in position but also cargo pockets in the doors. On the dashboard you find a new feature called "Virtual Race Engineer." This is a big digital screen where the instruments would normally sit, and there are five different menus to scroll through, all meant to help you get the most out of the car.

Track Day

When you're accelerating in a straight line, the 2010 Ferrari 599XX feels almost impossibly fast (and sounds like it, too, thanks to the car's lightweight, titanium exhaust system). You don't bother with 1st or 2nd once you're up and running, and they're gone in a blur. Once in 3rd gear the V12 still picks up so cleanly and so quickly that you need to concentrate hard in order to keep from hitting the rev limiter. It gets to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.9 seconds and the overall gearing limits top speed to 196 mph.

But it's the 599XX's chassis and its various aero and electronic aids that make this Ferrari feel so otherworldly to drive. It's astonishing to find that you can throw the thing at a corner and then let the electronics guide you through, and yet you never feel as if the intervention of the electronics is very intrusive. Basically, you just aim it and the XX goes. Maybe there's a hint of understeer in tight corners, but otherwise the car feels neutral for the rest of the time.

Once you reach the middle of a corner you can open up the throttle 100 percent and simply wait for the system to decide when there's enough traction to actually deliver full throttle. As it monitors the slip angle of the car as well as other dynamic parameters, the car then gradually gives you more power, but only when it knows it is capable of getting that power to the road. And then, presto, you exit the corner perfectly, with precisely the right amount of adhesion.

Get used to the way it works and you can dial down the level of electronic assistance and perform perfect drifts — not the big, dramatic ones that photographers like, but instead the small, efficient ones that stopwatches prefer. And there's none of the terror normally associated with throwing a 720-hp car sideways.

The XX Experience

Driving the 2010 Ferrari 599XX really is an otherworldly experience, one that a few lucky people are going to enjoy on a level that's never been available before outside of a Formula 1 car.

And if you think the $1.8-million price still sounds a bit steep, bear in mind that Ferrari will throw in two free track test sessions per year with the asking price, complete with full technical backup, plus a ticket to its end-of-year Ferrari bash at Mugello. And you get to become a Ferrari development driver as well.

To be honest, though, the 2010 Ferrari 599XX itself is priceless, as is the driving experience it offers. The other stuff is just a bonus.

MELBOURNE, Australia — Two men were arrested after bewildered diners at a McDonald's spotted them wrestling a 5-foot python named Boris in the restaurant parking lot, police said Thursday.

Victoria state police say the men stole the 8-year-old black-headed python and a lizard from a pet shop on Wednesday. They then brought the snake to the McDonald's parking lot, where they began wrestling with it in front of puzzled customers, police said.

The men, aged 22 and 24, were arrested and charged with burglary and theft. Police didn't release their names.

"In all honesty, it's just a case of dumb and dumber," Detective Sgt. Andrew Beams told Australian Broadcasting Corp. "Anyone who gets out there with a one-and-a-half meter python in a McDonald's car park — they're pretty dumb."


The snake was returned to a relieved Jodie Graham, owner of the Totally Reptiles pet shop. The lizard is still missing.

"He was a bit cold and stressed so I have him in the tank warming up," she said. "I am just glad to get him back."

Black-headed pythons are native to northern Australia. They are not venomous, and aren't likely to bite unless they're hunting prey.

By Calum MacLeod,
BEIJING — With a wide smile and a newly issued census bag, Wang Xiurong walked the lanes of Cloudy Ridge, a village beside the Great Wall.

Wang and 100,000 others had fanned out across the Chinese capital to register residents for a once-a-decade census that begins nationwide Nov. 1. Wang, 45, said she's happy with one , a , 21, but it's a different story at the first household she registers.

"I wanted to have another , preferably a girl, but the policy doesn't allow it, nor our own economic situation," said farmer Cao Xiurong, 39, whose is 15. "I really hope my will be allowed to choose how many he has."

That choice may become reality for increasing numbers of parents, said Peng Xizhe, a professor at Shanghai's Fudan University, as the census data will prove crucial to planned reforms of China's "one- policy."

"We do not have widely accepted population figures, especially fertility figures," Peng said. "If society and government get a better understanding of the situation, then it will be easier to make population policy."

Debates about policy change have gone on for years, but "hopefully we can see the policy changes happening early next year," he said.

Liang Zhongtang, a former senior adviser to China's family planning commission, said "officials are now working out plans for pilot projects in some provinces" that will relax birth restrictions.

Independent demographer He Yafu agrees that 2011 will see change.

"Using the new statistics, officials and experts will draft new laws on family planning," he said.

For 30 years, China has strictly limited family sizes. The policy was set to keep the population at a level that the Communists felt the country could handle. In 1980, the Communist Party stated that the policy would last for 30 years, said professor Siu Yat-ming, who researches Chinese family planning at Hong Kong Baptist University. "Now it's 30 years later, a lot of people are asking, 'Will they relax the policies?' " he said.

The first change will come in five areas, demographer He said. With a population of 230 million, the provinces of Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning, in northeast China, and Zhejiang and Jiangsu, in eastern China, will allow couples with one spouse who is an only to have a second , he said.

This represents an easing of current rules that permit second births where both parents are single . Rural families have long been allowed to have a second if the first is a girl.

Small-scale experiments in a handful of cities have already shown that birth rates do not necessarily rise if the restrictions are eased, Siu said. The pilot areas also produced a more normal gender balance, he said, compared with the stark imbalance nationwide caused by the traditional preference for boys, and abetted by illegal use of ultrasound technology, followed by selective abortions.

But he said top officials are still reluctant to make big changes, even though China is facing a problem of not enough babies being born, especially girls.

The Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, a Beijing think tank, suggests that by 2020 there will be 24 million more men of marriageable age (roughly 19 to 45) than women.

"The sharp rise in the number of men of marriageable age who fail to find wives will become a big hazard," Tian Xueyuan, deputy director of the Population Association of China, told the China Daily newspaper.

"It will increase incidences of women being bought as wives, as well as abduction and trafficking, and and pornography," Xueyuan said.

All Chinese should enjoy the right to choose, said Steven Mosher of the Population Research Institute, an anti-abortion organization based in Virginia.

Mosher said the pilot program is a step in the right direction, "but it's not reproductive freedom."

"As long as the state declares it has the right to dictate the number of , you will continue to have" abuses including forced abortions and sterilizations," which are widespread, he said.

"The whole exercise is one of government exercising control rather than any economic argument," Mosher said.

In response to an interview request, the Shanghai bureau of the National Population and Family Planning Commission issued a statement reiterating current policy: "encourage citizens to have late marriage and late childbirth, one per couple. Those who meet the legal conditions can ask to arrange having another ."

Yet in Shanghai, family planning officials have for the past year been urging wider adoption of a "two policy" for single who marry, a loophole long permitted but only relevant in recent years as the first generation of single reached marriage age.

Now the city aims to be part of reforms allowing a second birth if just one spouse is an only , Xie Lingli, director of the city's Population and Family Planning Commission, told the Shanghai Daily in July.

"We know the one- policy is unfair, but, to most Chinese people, it's not about fairness, but about money," said Shi Huili, a Beijing–based photographer who married this June. "If you have enough money, you can give birth to three, four or even more , you only have to pay the fine."

As single , Shi and wife Zhang Xue, both 26, can have two of their own, but the rising cost of kindergarten may restrict them to one, he said.

Back at Cloudy Ridge, farmer Cao Xiurong dreams of having a grandson and granddaughter. But she worries that even if it is allowed, the cost of raising is soaring too high for her , who will have to support his parents and grandparents.

"The pressure on him could be even greater," Cao said.

Many Americans Don't Even Know They're Fat

By Amanda Gardner

THURSDAY, Sept. 2 (HealthDay News) -- Many Americans have skewed perceptions when it comes to their weight, often believing they are thinner than they really are, even when the scales are shouting otherwise, a new poll finds.

As part of the Harris Interactive/HealthDay survey, respondents were asked to provide their height and weight, from which pollsters calculated their body-mass index (BM, a ratio of weight to height. Respondents were then asked which category of weight they thought they fell into.

Thirty percent of those in the "overweight" class believed they were actually normal size, while 70 percent of those classified as obese felt they were simply overweight. Among the heaviest group, the morbidly obese, almost 60 percent pegged themselves as obese, while another 39 percent considered themselves merely overweight.

These findings may help to explain why overweight and obesity rates in the United States continue to go up, experts say.

"While there are some people who have body images in line with their actual BMI, for many people they are not, and this may be where part of the problem lies," said Regina Corso, vice president of Harris Poll Solutions. "If they do not recognize the problem or don't recognize the severity of the problem, they are less likely to do something about it."

And that means that obesity may be becoming the new norm, raising the specter of increasing rates of health threats such as diabetes, heart disease and certain cancers.

"I think too many people are unsure of what they should actually weigh," said Keri Gans, a registered dietician and spokeswoman for the American Dietetic Association. "For many, they have grown up in a culture were most people are overweight and that is the norm, or they have been surrounded by too many celebrities and fashion in the media and think very thin is the norm."

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 34 percent of adults aged 20 and older are obese, and 34 percent are overweight. Among , 18 percent of teens aged 12 to 19 are obese, 20 percent of aged 6 to 11 are obese, as are 10 percent of aged 2 to 5.

Most respondents to the poll who felt they were heavier than they should be blamed sloth, rather than poor eating habits, for their predicament.

"In the mindset of most Americans, they're not looking at this as a food problem as much as an exercise problem," Corso said.

According to the poll, 52 percent of overweight people and 75 percent of both the obese and morbidly obese felt they didn't exercise enough.

"We're seeing the couch potato stigma [syndrome]," Corso said. "Three out of five Americans overall are saying they don't exercise as much as they should."

Added Gans: "It is sad that 59 percent of people who responded know they should be getting more exercise but yet aren't. Maybe they set the bar too high and forget that simply walking counts as exercise."

Food appeared to be a lesser culprit than lack of exercise in people's minds, with 36 percent of overweight respondents, 48 percent of obese respondents and 27 percent of those morbidly obese feeling they ate more than they "should in general."

A third of overweight people, 55 percent of obese people and 59 percent of morbidly obese people felt they ate too much of the wrong types of food.

As for weight-loss interventions, the respondents deemed surgery the most effective method, followed by prescription drugs, then drugs and diet-food supplements obtained over-the-counter.

About half felt that procedures such as gastric bypass and stomach stapling were either very or fairly effective in helping people shrink their girth. Faith in these remedies seemed similar, regardless of the respondents' weight.

"Americans like the quick fix and that's what they think the surgery is even though there are so many other things" that work, Corso said. "And so many people reverse their own surgery. These numbers are staggering."

Dr. Mitchell Roslin, chief of obesity surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, noted that "when [Dr. Everett Coop, surgeon general in the 1980s] wrote 'Shape Up America,' he said the biggest health problem facing America was not AIDS, not cancer, it's obesity and a sedentary lifestyle. Since then ... we've seen nothing but a rise in obesity despite all of these efforts that have gone on now since the 1980s."

"The American public knows this but it's hard and it's something that they're not quite ready to do," Corso added. "This wake-up call still isn't ringing as loudly as it could."

The poll included 2,418 adults (aged 18 and over) who were surveyed online between Aug. 17 and 19.

How do you see Love?
I think the shakespearean ideal of love is how I deal with love and mating?
I think the biblical ideal of love is how I deal with love and mating?
I don't believe what the bible says, that love is work, and work is love
I believe, in the romantic concept of Shakesperean depictions of love.
I generally base romance on concepts from Shakespearean melodrama
I base my concept of romance on acts of kindness, compassion and situations
I get upset if I can't have a situation, like melodrama playwrights depict.
I only want my fantasy, and the person I choose has to play by my script

Stuffing Their Pockets

by Rana Foroohar - September 04, 2010

One of the most startling things about the post-crisis landscape is how tone-deaf the wealthiest Americans remain to outrage over their Croesus-like pay packages. The award for complete obliviousness would have to go to Blackstone cofounder Stephen Schwarzman, who earlier this summer compared government attempts to raise taxes on financiers such as himself to Hitler’s invasion of Poland. Silver medals should certainly be handed out to the many executives and corporate lawyers who were grousing last week about the new Dodd-Frank bill, which includes a rule requiring companies to disclose the difference in pay between their chief executive and their lowest-level workers. It would be a “logistical nightmare,” these titans of industry wailed, for firms to compile this information.

Well, maybe, but if you issue pay stubs, surely you can tally them up (and perhaps keep a few more workers on board to do just that). The real nightmare will be when the public sees the numbers, which will illuminate just how egregious the U.S. pay gap has become. According to the Institute for Policy Studies, a liberal think tank based in Washington, the average S&P 500 CEO takes home 263 times what his cheapest laborer does. While CEO pay is indeed down from its pre-crisis highs in 2007, it’s still double what it was in the 1990s, and eight times the level in the 1950s.

Meanwhile, American workers are taking home less in real weekly wages than they did in the 1970s. So much for the idea that the financial crisis would somehow even things up by wiping out a good chunk of the paper wealth of the plutocrats. Indeed, stock prices have surged so much since last year that many CEOs, who receive a good chunk of their pay in equity, are wealthier than ever before.

Such facts are inevitably followed by the impossible-to-answer question, do they deserve it? While the corporate world has certainly gotten more complex over the last 50 years, it’s hard to make the case that CEOs themselves have gotten any smarter, or that investors are doing a better job of judging a CEO’s success. Compensation levels are all too often driven by short-term thinking. The CEOs of the 50 firms that laid off the most workers since the onset of the economic crisis took home 42 percent more pay in 2009 than their peers did—largely because cutting workers boosts short-term profits and appeals to Wall Street. Yet a growing body of academic research suggests that downsizing doesn’t always lead to increased profitability over the longer haul, or even lower costs. There are many reasons for this, ranging from the fact that companies going into layoff mode often lose their best workers to competitors, to the toll taken on R&D spending, which is what produces the revenue and growth potential of the future.

While one can argue the merits of layoffs on a company-by-company basis, what’s striking is that the executives who are the most willing to ax workers also seem to be the least likely to tighten their own belts. Management guru Peter Drucker once noted that after CEO-to-worker pay ratios went above 25–1, major moral questions started to be raised. It will be hard to make employees believe that “we’re all in this together” when it becomes clear in public documents that company leaders have largely insulated themselves from any financial risk.

The larger issue of growing inequity in the Western world is a tough one to tackle; the forces of globalization that have led to stagnating wages aren’t going to disappear. But executive pay could be made fairer and more transparent. For starters, corporate America might take a page out of the European playbook. In countries like Germany, which boasts many of the world’s most competitive and productive companies, worker representatives often sit on corporate boards, providing a check against bloated pay packages.


On the other hand, U.S. corporate boards are full of very rich people who have no incentive to complain about each others’ pay. That’s why politicians might consider getting rid of tax rules that let companies write off unlimited amounts of corporate compensation. And whatever arguments there might be about the complexity of the Dodd-Frank rules, the notion of publishing pay numbers is a good one. If nothing else, it could be the starting point of a conversation in which America’s business leaders explain, to their shareholders and to the wider public, exactly why they need so much money to get the job done.

Maybe what the world could benefit from is "A International Woman Rights Month"

EU calls 'barbaric' plans to stone Iranian woman

By NASSER KARIMI,
TEHRAN, Iran – The European Union on Tuesday condemned the stoning to death sentence passed against an Iranian woman convicted for adultery, saying it was "barbaric beyond words."

In his first State of the Union address to parliament, European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso said he was "appalled" by the news of the sentencing, and called it "barbaric beyond words."

The sentence against Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani was put on hold in July after an international outcry over the brutality of the punishment, and it is now being reviewed by Iran's supreme court.

Ashtiani's lawyer has said there are still worries the delayed execution could be carried out soon with the end of a moratorium on death sentences for the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

The Ashtiani's case points to larger divides between the West and Iran, which staunchly defends its legal codes and human rights standards as fully developed and in keeping with its traditions and values.

Iranian authorities have repeatedly bristled at Western criticism — including U.S. State Department rights reports — saying foreign governments overlook shortcomings in their own systems and fail to hold Western-ally Israel accountable for its treatment of Palestinians.

Barroso's comments came shortly after Iran on Tuesday scoffed at European concern over the case.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said Ashtiani faced charges of murder and infidelity and the case shouldn't be linked to human rights. Europeans who believe freedom for murderers serves human rights, he said, should release their own murderers from jail.

Offers of talks with Iranian officials were welcome, but only on bilateral and international issues, not the Ashtiani case, he said.

France and Italy have urged Iran to show flexibility in the case. The Vatican has raised the possibility of using diplomacy to try to save her life.

Mehmanparast said both cases of Mohammadi are still under review by the Iranian judiciary.

world nations, should ban together, and impose every sanction they can imagine to impose, for any nations, who persecutes women for consensual sexual acts.

As a society where much exist, the blind eye, and non concern allows these things to continue, it is no different than other policies nations and people have allowed, by silence. when nations ban together to stand against these type of things, then things began to change, and wipe away old outdated methods.
No person nor nation, should be allowed to 'force feed religion" upon anyone. Each person is born as an individual, and will live their life as an individual, they have choices, and their body belong to them, and what they do with it is their business, not the systems concerns, be it religion or state.

Free choice is what is an individual given, mankind and mankind systems of trying to control people in every detail, is as if man has made a aiam to claim himself as a god over other individuals.

History has seen enough of trying to control and contain the sexual nature of women, Every society has tried some method of containing and controlling women, and the wise nations, have flourished when they learned to free women, to be themselves.

No woman needs to be made to wear rags over her head, nor cover herself as if she does not exist. if men can't control himself at the sight of her, that is his problem, not her problem. but to force her to mad made rituals, is only showing how vile man is toward woman, all because of his own frailty and inability to manage himself.

If he can't stand the though of woman having sex, then he himself should simply not touch her, and leave her to have sex with whom she wants, as she choose and as she wants. if she wants to work, then she should be free to choose any kind of work that she aims to pursue, as long as she feels she can do it and wants to do it.

these same fools of men, were born by women, and turn and want to treat other women, as if they are his possession, liken to a centralized slave system.

I bet if all these women could some how ban together and seek political asylum outside of this region, and simply leave the men, there to themselves, and see how well they function.
Eventually, the population of men will die off or result to simply kill each other, because they can't procreate as man and man.

Its amazing in this day an age, not only do we have these kind of things happening, we still have places that pass the power of rule from one family member to the next, rather than to give the people a choice in whom they want to follow as a leader.

it appears, that in time, there will be a forced revolution, for the nature of freedom of the individual, and it just may become a global matter.

Women not only give birth to the worlds population, they make the many other contribution in society, but without them, there is no continuation of life. Why is this simple reality so hard for some nations to grasp.

There is no other species on the planet, that has such gender ignorance as that of the human being.
animals, have a natural regard for each other, in regard to gender, they have their own dignity in how they regard each other in respect to gender.

The mind of man, in the effort to exalt himself as if he is a God, is a sickness that seems to plague man, where he has done horrible atrocities of every kind, and many still have not learned.

God gave life to women, just as he gave life to man, and there is no rubber stamp that gives man the right to try and contain woman.
the natural regard that is inherent in male and female, governs the ways of man and woman, and how they relate with each other, and how they regard each other.



When man, comes up with these maddening concept of dominate, contain and impose his mad concepts upon woman, he himself is the evil one. and he himself, seeks to void out the reality of Gods design of giving woman her own individual life and the rights to choose to live it as she deems to desire and do so.

Maybe what the world could benefit from is "A International Woman Rights Month"
