Johnny Depp Tops List of Celebs With Specs-appeal
According to a survey by Henley’s Eyewear, a staggering 90 percent of people find those who wear glasses to be attractive, with Johnny Depp and Cheryl Cole topping the polls of the most attractive celebrities who wear glasses.
The poll indicates that the traditional stereotype that spectacles are ‘geeky’ is diminishing due to the celebrity spec-wearing trend.
As a fashion accessory, glasses have grown in popularity in recent years with a number of celebs sporting a some prescription glasses. The results of the survey showed that Brad Pitt followed Depp in men with the most specs-appeal with Jude Law, Matt Damon and Prince William also featuring on the list. Cole pipped fellow Brit Kelly Brook to the number one spot.
Furthermore, Henley’s poll indicated that your regular Joe on the street was considered more approachable and intelligent if they wore a pair of glasses.
Psychologist Donna Dawson said: “This survey shows that the old clich© of glasses making people seem more intelligent is true. Look at Marilyn Monroe; she tried to counteract her ‘ditsy’ blonde image by wearing glasses in her acting classes.
She added: “Glasses have an attraction of their own: they lure you to a person because they frame the eyes, which are considered the twin windows of the soul and they are a sign of vulnerability and mystery.”
Stylist Matine Alexander commented: “Geek-chic is one of the most talked about trends this seasons and glasses are a key accessory to complete the look. Glasses are not just stylish for the short-sighted, with a number of people buying ‘fashion glasses’. Designer sunglasses have always been a cool item, but now regular frames are just as stylish.”
The poll only reinforce a recent poll which indicated that children who wear glasses were being bullied less in school.

Pure Opinion – Health Care Reform – Does Anyone Care?
mortgage refinance If the Earth is our mother then Al Gore must be our daddy. He is the self-appointed prophet of climate doom. Since losing to George W Bush in 2000 he has been given wealth, power, and prestige like none before him. Hollywood gave him an Oscar, their highest award. The world bestowed upon him the Nobel Peace Prize. He has made more money than most governments in this decade alone. All in the name of saving the environment. I just want to know his carbon footprint.
I must confess, I have a little problem with career politicians who finally lose an election, and then get filthy rich soon after. The old fashioned way of politicians bilking the public was to simply invest where the development was going to be. In Chicago we have the “friends and family plan”. This is where politicians award government contracts to friends and family.
juegos 3d Watson: Right-o! Let’s start with the Bible-Believing Christians. Usually it’s the Bible bunch wanting to see the Lord come back and unleash His righteous indignation upon the wicked. In years gone by well meaning but misguided Christians have set dates for the second coming of Christ. Could it be them again? Maybe their zeal and excitement has got the best of them, due to the fact that they want the Lord to come. They have always been wrong in the past, you know. Is it them?
Sherlock: My dear Watson, the glaring absence of any Bible-believing groups promoting 2012 removes them from our list completely. At this point, none of them are selling their homes and moving up in the hills, waiting for the Lord to come. And honestly, if it was the Bible-believing Christians behind all this, everyone would laugh them to scorn. Think clearly now my good man:
1) They wouldn’t have enough money to make it look so convincing.
2) They wouldn’t be so organized and unified. (a snicker escapes his lips)
3) They wouldn’t be given nearly as much publicity.
To be sure, we are still 3 years away, but if it were the Christians behind all this, the media would be mocking them incessantly. No, it isn’t the Christians.
Watson: Quite so. Quite so. Dash it all. It is always so gratifying to blame the Bible-thumpers. Confound it. Ah well, let’s move on down our list, shall we. Number 2 Would be the Sensationalists. You know who I mean don’t you Holmes? Those who profit off of any big event. Namely, the news media, such as newspapers, radio, television, movie makers, etc. And then there are the T-shirt manufacturers, website builders, basically all your “promotional” people. What do you think Holmes? Could these guys be the culprits? I say.
commercial property Sherlock: Hmm (puffing on his curly pipe). You are getting closer, but I don’t think you’ve hit it yet. (pause) No, these are not the people responsible. They are merely profiting from the big event. Like the guys selling watches and umbrellas, caps and t-shirts at sports stadiums. To be sure, they are profiting, but they lack a motive. (Holmes stares off into the distance). You see, my dear fellow, these are the pawns being used to hock the “stuff” on the street. They are the “front”. Behind them, hiding somewhere, sinister, methodically plotting some devious scheme is our real perpetrator.
Watson: I say old man. Are you sure?
Sherlock: Without a doubt, old chap. These criminal types always get some unsuspecting dupe to do their dirty work for them. No, we haven’t named our man yet. Let’s keep digging through that list of yours, shall we?
Watson: Good heavens! All this thinking makes my head hurt. I wish this were simple? Blast it all! Very well. Our third one would be the Prophets and Fortune Tellers. They come in all stripes and colors, you know. There are Catholics, Muslims, Hindus, and everything in between. There are men, and there are women. There never seems to be a lack of these self-proclaimed visionaries. They each have a small spattering of a following. Some have their own websites too. I say, Holmes. Aren’t you even listening to me? (Holmes had unconsciously been shaking his head negatively and making a look of disgust).
Sherlock: No, no, no. All wrong.
Watson: All wrong? What is all wrong?
Sherlock: The whole picture. Don’t you see? All of them agreeing! All having the same date. No. Totally out of character. Where is the individuality? Where is the credit for the prediction? None can take the credit! How completely unprofessional. No self-respecting fortune teller or prophet would agree with another. It’s counter productive. Bad for business.
Watson: You mean they all would disagree on purpose because they otherwise would be less than authentic?
Sherlock: Precisely, my good man. Well said. Well said. Shall we consult your list once more?
Watson: My dear friend, I only have one last suspect. To be honest, I put them at the bottom, for I didn’t really suspect them at all, but some have suggested they be considered.
Sherlock: Quit balking and out with it then. Cat got your tongue?
Watson: (ashamedly, quite timidly) The New Age Movement and the New World Order.
Sherlock: What’s that you say?! (in whispered tone now) Tell me. Why would anyone suspect them?
Watson: I saw it on the internet. Silly isn’t it? Absurd. Preposterous. If you ask me, it couldn’t be them in a million years. Really!
Sherlock: (after long silence) Not so fast. Hmm. You may be on to something there, old boy. Yes! That’s it! You have just given us the men, the means, and most importantly, the motive.
Watson: I say! Me? But how? Who? Explain yourself won’t you?
Sherlock: Delighted. (Holmes stands to his feet and strides across the room deep in thought). 1) Some cataclysmic event occurs. 2) The New Age Movement and the New World Order unite to usher in a new world leader (otherwise known as the antichrist) 3) The governments of the world cede power to him, for to refuse would mean annihilation. And there you have it. All this Mayan poppycock is just a set-up for power-hungry ambitious tyrants to steal our freedoms!
Watson: Good Havens, man! Are you sure? Not our sovereignty!?
Sherlock: Quite sure. Thus, the tried and true prophecies of the Bible are completely and exactly fulfilled, wherein none other than the Antichrist himself is enthroned.

Are You Eating Genetically Modified Foods Without Even Knowing It?
Do you eat genetically modified foods? Would you really know if you did? The sad truth is, most of us have no idea when and if we’re eating GM foods, because the U.S. Government has done their best to keep that knowledge from us.
“Most Americans simply do not understand that 80% of non-organic supermarket processed foods (basically every product containing soy, corn, canola, cottonseed oil, or sugar beet derivatives) are contaminated with GMOs. While nearly everyone in North America has eaten genetically modified foods, only 26% believe that they have.” [1]
That is startling. How can we not know what we’re eating? There are two answers to this question.
1. Our government, who are in cohorts with large bio-chemical companies like Monsanto, work very hard to keep us ignorant of exactly what is going on with our food.
2. Most of us are either happy in our ignorance or not concerned enough to look into what we are feeding ourselves and our families.
I truly believe that if the information was available, and we did not have to go out of our ways to search for the truth, the majority of us would choose not to eat foods containing GMO’s and would opt for more natural, organic alternatives.
However, because it all boils down to money, and the fact that Monsanto (and other similar companies) have it, our government-the government who is supposed to protect its citizens-continues to work with and on behalf of big agribusiness.
It is sad that we, the constituents of our government, have to take it upon ourselves to protect ourselves from our own government’s interests. WE should be our government’s interests!
The responsibility of protecting ourselves has fallen upon us. The truth is out there. We need to care enough to not only search it out, but act on it. For more information on how to make a difference, please visit http://www.organicconsumers.org/articles/article_21060.cfm.

An age old sport that has already been around for hundreds of decades. Pigeon racing can be a hugely competitive and fascinating sport, take a look at the vibrant background here.
Ever since the year 2000 BC people have utilized this homing ability of the racing pigeon. The Romans employed the homing pigeon to great effect to transport communications back from outlying areas.
Recently in the 20th century <a href=”http://www.pigeonelite.com”>pigeon racing</a> had a huge effect in WWII saving hundreds of soldiers. The most adorned animal in the war was the homing pigeon with 32 Dicken medals currently being awarded to pigeons with regard to their particular daring actions.
Implemented in 1943 to honour the work of animals in warfare. Written with the phrases “For Gallantry” and “We also serve” granted to 32 pigeons between 1943 and 1949.
William of Orange, a male racing pigeon, had been granted the 21st Dicken Medal for delivering a personal message from the “Arnhem Airborne Operation”, his efforts ended up saving 2000 lives in Sept 1945.
At this time there had been no other forms of communication at the time seeing that the couple of radio units they had all malfunctioned, and they were surrounded by German troops. He was released at 10:30 on the 19th September and supplied his information home in The united kingdom at 2:55 after spanning a distance of two hundred and fifty miles.

Pigeon racers appear from almost all avenues of life coming from your working class to rich millionaires and it is one particular sports activity where money will not necessarily buy anyone success all contend upon level conditions. As with all sports several consider it more severely than others but to be prosperous an individual have to be truly committed to the hobby and as with any kind of various other hobby the main point will be that you enjoy it.

Unprecedented – In My Experience
mortgage refinance Government run heath care, federal bailouts, stimulus packages, increased government debt; all of these topics are in the news today 24/7, 365. We hear about our government spending trillions and trillions of dollars in an attempt to correct problems that plague our country. Have you seen any of that money? How are you doing? Have you seen any benefit from government programs like cash for clunkers, home loan restructuring, or COBRA assistance?
What about us? What about, as Bill O’Reilly says, “the folks?”
juegos Have you been affected in 2009 by any of the following:
- Shrinking 401-k
- Loss of a job
- Foreclosure
- Underemployment
- Living off of retirement savings
- Loss of a business
- Increased Debt Load
- Bank Failures
These events and many more have happened with regular frequency during 2009.
real estate marketing For most of us, what we have experienced is something that we have never been through in our lifetime. The events we went through in 2009 are like the floods that Georgia experienced a week ago. Interstate highways closed, 2,000 or more homes destroyed, school cancelled, bridges out and 10 people lost their lives. The people who track these types of flood events say that the level of the water far exceeded any 100 year flood maps that existed for this area of Georgia. Unprecedented is how they put it.
Unprecedented!
There were additional problems GM faced and GM Fritz Henderson, Wagoner, and other executives were simply ineffectual in terms of their ability to handle these problems. The company was losing money from collapsing sales. Losses started to rise into the double digit billions. The company was quickly heading to insolvency.
These problems were compounded by various poor managerial decisions. Namely, a joint venture with Nissan and Renault proved disastrous. General Motors also poorly negotiated union contracts it was not able to afford. These problems further drained the company making a turnaround far too difficult.
How did GM Fritz Henderson, Wagoner, and others handle the problems? The answer to this is shrouded in mystery. A clear plan to reverse the problems with General Motors was never truly instituted. Attempts to sell the European wing of the company proved fruitless and further losses piled up. Eventually, the strategy arrived at was to accept a bailout loan from the federal government to avoid heading into bankruptcy court. The plan didn’t work and GM could not avoid bankruptcy filing. This essentially ended General Motors as far as it had previously existed and, ironically, it was also the start of GM Fritz Henderson as CEO.
The end of General Motors proved bittersweet. The GM bankruptcy allows the company to exist albeit in a radically different form.

Latterly In a brief titled ‘On the increase, Solar Thermal Power and the war against Global Warming’ released by Environment Florida, a classic statement was made that America has the potentiality to meet all of its current electricity desires with huge central concentrating solar electricity plants. The nation's clean energy Lab has identified the capability for more than seven thousand gigawatts ( GW ) of concentrating solar energy generation on lands in the southwestern US alone – more than 6 times current U.S. There were other areas of the US discussed also like Florida, the mountain west, and the Great Fields that may also generate important power from the sun. More PV cells are later added enabling more electric power items to be controlled by solar electricity electricity. Initially, they may have only 1 or 2 items powered by solar energy.
This is a way in which you can begin to cutting giant hunks ‘ out of your power invoice, it is like telling the power company ‘I’m not paying you as much as I did last month’. During the past couple of years a few good alternate choices to new photovoltaic solar electricity generators have made an appearance on the market.

I'm wishing there were wizardry and all you had to do was to put the solar power modules ( panels ) on the roof, then run and plug them into an extension rope, hook it up and go switch on the Television . Sorry. An office or an enormous mansion could utilize a steam turbine to create electricity. But you may also explore other chances if you're feeling venturesome or if you are feeling like a scientist! You might enhance your heating power by using solar concentrators which are nothing except mirrors which may concentrate the heat energy of the sun onto the point of reception.
