Researchers at Nara Women’s University’s Department of Environmental Health held a study to determine IF WEARING AN UNDERWIRE BRA EFFECTED A WOMAN’S ABILITY TO POOP. The theory was that the bra exerted pressure on the body; does this added pressure have an effect?
The NATIONAL PEST MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION has released the results of their 2010 Pest Control Attitudes and Usage Survey, and it’s not pretty if you’re an ant.
According to the survey of over 1,000 US homeowners, ANTS are the number one pest in American homes. Termites, spiders, cockroaches, and mosquitos follow on the list. Some of the highlights include:
Web Watch is always careful when we visit with our friends who have small children to watch our language. After all, it’s common courtesy to not recite George Carlin’s list of Dirty Words in front of those who are too young to appreciate the nuance of language, or who may be offended overall by hearing words in polite company that would be later yelled out the car window at the a-hole who just cut you off in traffic.
But it may end up that Web Watch has been overly cautious. While we don’t want to be the ones who introduces foul language to our friends’ children, it may be that the deed has already been done long before we showed up for the pot-luck.

Early Puberty in Girls: The Essential Guide to Coping with This Common Problem
The news has been filled with all sorts of reasons and explanations for why young girls are entering puberty at younger and younger ages these days.
CNN reported that “Early development in girls has been linked with poor self-esteem, eating disorders, and depression, as well as cigarette and alcohol use and earlier sexual activity,” with other news reports stating that girls are entering puberty before they reach the ages of 9 or 10.

Based on that piece of stellar reporting, Web Watch is confident in saying that WAL-MART BELIEVES THE ECONOMY IS GROWING, as WAL-MART CEO BILL SIMON PREDICTS THIS HOLIDAY SEASON TO BE FILLED WITH UNDERWEAR AND SOCK PURCHASES for adults.
Driving while texting is being banned in more and more states, and rightfully so. It’s hard enough for Web Watch to walk down the street with every passer-by so engrossed in their Blackberries or iPhones that they’re not paying attention where they’re going – we know how bad it could be with those same people behind the wheel of a car.
Driving has enough distractions as it is, especially for teenagers or other inexperienced drivers. That’s why SEVENTEEN MAGAZINE and AAA have TEAMED UP for the SEVENTEEN TWO-SECOND TURN OFF DAY on September 17th.
All they want you and your teenagers to do is to take two seconds before you start your car, and turn off your cell phone. That’s it. One less distraction for you as you weave in-and-out of traffic on your way to work, school, or fun.
Don’t think it’s necessary? Let’s take a look at some statistics about how badly distracted teenage drivers are, taken from a poll of over 2000 male and female drivers, age 16-19:
Dr. Nick Neave from Northumbria University in the UK knows good dancing when he sees it. He also knows a lot about bad dancing, too.
In a STUDY ABOUT GOOD DANCING vs BAD DANCING published in the Biology Letters journal, Dr Neave and his team have discovered that thre are certain dance moves that men can do that will make them more attractive to women. The study determined that women associate good dancing with good health and reproductive potential.
