Evident...
A study of different female body shape preferences found that men prefer body shapes that suggest youth. Men from 10 countries were asked to rank a series of body shapes from most to least attractive.
Popular among all the participants was the female body shape with a BMI of 19, the borderline with being underweight. Also a correlation between higher BMI and perceived lesser attractiveness was also evident.
Professor John Speakman, who led the study, explained:
"Fitness in evolutionary terms comprises survival and the ability to reproduce.
What we wanted to investigate was the idea that when we look at someone and think they are physically attractive, are we actually making that assessment based on a hard-wired evolutionary understanding of their potential for future survival and reproductive ability?"
"Although most people will not be surprised, since this prevails so heavily in media, culture, health education and fashion, the important advance is that now we have an evolutionary understanding of why this is the case." Just a thought. Then and now.

Not sure if this is true.
Tax reform and Healthcare improvement or replacement, are difficult things to do. It is easier to get the public consumed by one investigation after the other, or even better, start a war somewhere in the Middle East.
No one, Democrats or Republicans, wanted health Reforms or Tax reform. The gravy train most likely would be impacted. Just a thought.

Two...
Two 20-year-old men have been charged with multiple counts of homicide in the slayings of four young men in southeast Pennsylvania, authorities said.
Cosmo DiNardo, of Bensalem, and Sean Kratz, of Philadelphia, were both charged with criminal homicide in the July 7 deaths of four persons ages 19-22 years old.
Investigators found the bodies of the three men Wednesday in a roughly 12-foot-deep grave on a sprawling property in Solebury Township owned by DiNardo's parents.
DiNardo was arrested for illegal possession of a shotgun and ammunition. He was named a person of interest of the missing men and was released after posted a $1 million bail, 10% in cash.
But authorities arrested DiNardo Wednesday on charges he tried to sell one victim's 1996 Nissan Maxima a day after the man was last seen. Who are these two and what is their family situation?
