Campaign to ban page 3 from the sun

published by Hajjar on 21 September, 2012 - 09:35

I don't read this trashy paper I came across it at work once in the staff room. News lacks depth, and there's porn inside. porn should be on the top shelf. We say we're the most civilised country in the world, this is the nations most read paper, what does it say about their morals when they accept this as just a bit of ' harmless' fun. I wouldn't want my kids seeing it, I wouldn't want to see a man looking at page 3 on the bus, I'd get up and move its disgusting, disturbing even to normalise it. I mean its not a regular occurrence to see men reading playboy on public transport, why coz its porn, they know society looks down on it, so why any difference with page 3?

Painkillers and headaches

published by LookingToSee on 20 September, 2012 - 22:26

Remember when painkillers were kept in a glass bottle in the medicine cabinet? Maybe not. But back then, if you had a headache, you'd wait until you got home, open the dusty bottle, and swallow a white, powdery pill, which tasted disgusting. Now, when we have a headache, we don't wait. We pat our pockets, or dig into our bags. And if you don't have any on you, somebody else will. You sometimes see people taking the packets out in pubs and putting them on the table, next to their drinks. Then they take a pill, and wash it down with wine. And the thing is, the packets look nice. They look smart. There's no stigma. Why? Because the marketers got hold of them.

Eat, Fast and Live Longer

published by Hummus on 5 September, 2012 - 22:04

Michael Mosley has set himself a truly ambitious goal: he wants to live longer, stay younger and lose weight in the bargain. And he wants to make as few changes to his life as possible along the way. He discovers the powerful new science behind the ancient idea of fasting, and he thinks he's found a way of doing it that still allows him to enjoy his food. Michael tests out the science of fasting on himself - with life-changing results.
