Kuala Lumpur, December 05 : Stare at women's breasts for 10 minutes a day and increase your life span by five years, that's the conclusion of a new study.

According to a German research published in the New England Journal of Medicine, men who stare at women's breasts for 10 minutes a day live five years longer.

The study claims that 10 minutes of ogling is equivalent to a 30-minute gym workout.

The finding has been made after an assessment of 200 men over a period of five years, reports Sin Chew Daily and China Press.

The men who stare at women's breasts have lower blood pressure, suffer less cardiovascular disease and have slower heart beat, the Star Online reports.

Gerontologist Dr Karen Weatherby explains that sexual desire leads to better blood circulation meaning improved health.

Abstinence makes the booby’s feet grow bluer

The more luminous the feet, the more desirable the blue-footed male booby

A year’s abstinence may sound an unlikely recipe for sexual success. But a chaste spell can work wonders for male prowess, at least in tropical birds, according to scientists.

In a study of the blue-footed booby, which is native to the Galápagos Islands and Ecuador, they found that when birds had a year off from reproducing, their feet became brighter in colour. For female boobies, the more luminous the foot, the more desirable the male.

“They go for the most luminous feet possible,” said Alberto Velando, an evolutionary ecologist from the University of Vigo in Spain and lead author of the study.

Generally, young male boobies have the brightest feet and they fade in colour over the bird’s lifespan, which can be more than 20 years. Scientists found that a period of abstinence can restore some of the youthful glow, making the birds more desirable in the following mating season.


Got to love boobies.

So if I do it for 20minutes I live 10 years more?

I wonder who conducted this study, just taking a guess here - men?

Boobs, the secret to immortality.

PORTLAND, England, Dec. 7 (UPI) -- A British prisoner convinced guards his marijuana plants were tomato plants -- and they even allowed him to decorate one as a Christmas tree, a source said.

Mohamed Jalloh, 28, of Brent, North London, grew his pot plants at Verne Prison in Portland, Dorset, in southern England, and for five months, guards admired his gardening, The Sun reported Saturday.

But after another inmate told guards what the plants really were, they checked out photos of marijuana plants on the Internet, and the jig was up.

"You could see the plants from the grounds, as his cell looks on to the education department and communal outside area," a source said. "They were on show for the world to see."

Jalloh is serving eight years for supplying drugs.

LED traffic lights don't melt snow, do cause accidents

A number of cold weather American states are reporting their dismay at finding out that LED traffic lights are so energy efficient that they do not produce enough excess heat to dissipate any snow that covers them. It turns out, perhaps in an homage to bad engineering everywhere, that the inefficiency of incandescent light bulbs was previously relied upon to keep traffic signals unimpeded. The new LEDs do not achieve the same effect, which has resulted in a few accidents and even a death being blamed on obstructed traffic lights. Feel free to apply palm to face now. It's not all gloomy, though, as the majority of people are said to treat a dysfunctional traffic light as a stop sign (how clever of them), and a tech fix is being worked on as we speak.

The railway companies in the Netherlands were way ahead of that. They made it policy to place the red light on the bottom, so that there was no sun cover that the snow could pile up on and obstruct the light.

Warrant out for horse sex accused

An arrest warrant has been issued for a Leicester man accused of having sex with a horse and a donkey, after he failed to turn up to court.

Joseph Squires, 66, of Overpark Avenue, is charged with buggery of a donkey between February and April 1999 and buggery with a horse in March 2004.

He is also accused of criminal damage to the animals during the same dates.

He was due to appear at Leicester Crown Court earlier for a plea and case management hearing.

Mr Squires did not attend court and it was heard he had lost touch with his solicitors.

Judge Michael Pert QC issued a bench warrant for his arrest.


I couldn't help but break out laughing on reading 'buggery with a donkey' :P

Police in Ohio are searching for two brazen girls, believed to be as young as 12 and 14, who robbed a bank in a Cincinnati suburb and escaped a police dragnet that included a helicopter and dogs.

The baby faced bank robbers, one believed to be 12 years old and the other 14 or 15, entered the 1st National Bank in Symmes Township, "walked up to the bank teller, and gave the teller a note demanding money," Steve Barnett, spokesman for the Hamilton County Sherriff's Office, said in a statement.

Neither of the girls carried a weapon, but "the teller gave the suspects an undetermined amount of U.S. currency," according to Barnett.

The bank was robbed at 3:19 p.m. There was one teller, but no customers in the bank at time. No one was injured.

The girls were last seen fleeing in a easterly direction from the bank.

"No Weapons", "teller gave ... currency"

Either the report is missing some key information here, or that person is a complete tool.

Thames Valley Police officers were filmed using riot shields to sledge down a snowy hill while on duty.

Rick Latham filmed the officers on Boars Hill, Oxford, and posted it on YouTube.

Local policing area commander Supt Andrew Murray said the snow had "a habit of bringing out the child in all of us".

He added: "I have spoken to the officers concerned and reminded them in no uncertain terms that tobogganing on duty, on police equipment and at taxpayers' expense is a very bad idea should they wish to progress under my command."
