Now that the summer camp season is winding down and kids are heading back to school, Web Watch wanted to take a moment to share with you a story that would have freaked some parents out and led to unhappy summer vacations if we had shared it a month ago when this first crossed our browser.

It ends up that SUMMER CAMPS ARE GETTING IN TROUBLE FOR APPLYING SUNSCREEN TO CAMPERS.

And it’s all because some parents are extra-sensitive about who should be allowed to touch their children, even when done in a supervisory manner by workers in child-oriented jobs.

A recent survey from M/A/R/C Research and The Integer Group discovered that women are very particular about the brands that they buy at the grocery store.

And it has absolutely nothing to do with whether those products are superior in Web Watch’s opinion (the infamous “Heinz vs Hunts ketchup debate” lingers on, folks) or not.

What the survey uncovered was that 43% of women prefer to purchase brands that are associated with charitable giving.

Girls should avoid the playground see-saw

By web gangsta | Published: July 24, 2011


4-person See-SawBuy a FOUR PERSON SEE-SAW

Children of all ages have been getting injured at the playground for years.

It really should come as no surprise that parents are always looking for the safest type of playground for their kids to play at, but those parents are always coming up short.

Playgrounds, just by their very nature, are just waiting for accidents to occur, no matter how safe they appear to be.

Web Watch has reported on different studies regarding when men or women decide to participate in protected or unprotected sex in the past.

Today, we ran across a USC study entitled SEX AND RELATIONSHIPS ON THE STREET: HOW HOMELESS MEN JUDGE PARTNER RISK ON SKID ROW.

Doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals spread germs everywhere they go

Doctor Walking Through Hospital Closet with Blue Sheets and Scrubs

You’ve seen them around town:  walking through the park on their way to and from lunch, driving through the bank teller line, shopping at the grocery store, eating at restaurants after a shift, riding your elevator — doctors, dental hygenists, nurses, and other medical professionals all wearing their scrubs out in public.

Think about it.

Why do medical professionals wear scrubs?  They’re easy to clean, and they don’t want to get their “real” clothes dirty.

So why do you see so many of these same medical staff wandering around in public in their scrub outfits?  They certainly aren’t going to wear these non-sterilized clothes anywhere that would possible infect you in their day-to-day care of your illness or dental exams.

Or are they?

Science proves that size DOES matter. Taint so?

Science is a wonderful thing.

You know how women say that “size doesn’t really matter”?  It ends up that size really does matter – but not because women think they like it better that way.

Nope.  It ends up that size has a direct correlation to sperm count.  In other words, the larger the size, the more fertile sperm are around to help in the baby-making.

It’s about this time that Web Watch will like to point out that we may not be talking “size” of the same thing here.  So let’s explain:

Guarantee the Sex of Your Baby:
Choose a Girl or Boy Using Today’s 99.9% Accurate Sex Selection Techniques

There are all sorts of research done that allegedly say they can influence what gender your new baby will be.

Some come down to bedroom techniques, some are due to foods that are eaten, or the type of underwear the father should wear one month before the conception is attempted.

Everybody knows that it’s the father that contributes the chromosome that results in whether the baby is a boy or a girl… but a new study has come out that may pour some fuel onto the growing fire of the mother having some influence after all.

There are some people who say that women shouldn’t be astronauts. 

It really doesn’t matter who those idiots are, because we have people like Dr William Rowe, and his website FEMALES IN SPACE, which offers many scientific and medical reasons why women are superior astronaut material.

Dove, the skin care folks, have asked this question of women everywhere:  “DO YOU LOVE YOUR ARMPITS?”.

Would you believe that 93% of women surveyed said, “no”?

That’s right – women don’t care for their own armpits… yet Web Watch knows some women who love sticking their nose directly into their man’s armpits, just to take a big whiff.

Maybe beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  But we digress…
