11 people hanging on to a single rope

that suspended them from a helicopter

trying to bring them to safety. Ten

were men; one was a woman. They all

decided that one person would have

to let go because if they didn't,

the rope would break and all of

them would die. No one could

decide who it should be.

Finally the woman gave a

really touching speech,

saying how she would

give up her life to save the

others, because women

were used to giving things

up for their husbands and

children and giving in to

men. All of the men started

clapping.

Five Tips for a Woman...1) It is important that a man helps you

around the house and has a job.

2) It is important that a man makes

you laugh.

3) It is important to find a

man you can depend

on and also that he

doesn’t lie to you.

4) It is important

that a man loves

you and spoils

you.

5) It is

important that

these four men

don’t know each

other!

Spring - Summer Collection Now In

Things between Shane Warne and Liz Hurley can’t begoing too well. The over-sharing tweeter has confessed that if she

doesn’t find love again, she’ll live with Hugh Grant.The model-turned-actress-turned-god-knows-what gushed: "If all else fails,

we'll end up living together like Darby and Joan"But when she was asked if the pair could not only be housemates but bed-

fellows, she blurted “preposterous!” The couple dated for 13 years beforesplitting up in 2000, and have stayed incredibly close ever since. They eventake cookery, music and language classes together these days. As preten-

tious as it all sounds, it’s kind of cute. Liz is much better suited to Hugh thanto that bloated perma-tanned womaniser Shane Warne.

We couldn’t help but wonder – who else would be good put together? Whichfamous couples are we hoping to reconcile?

Brad Pitt and Jennifer AnistonRemember when Brad’s hair was blond, not grey? Remember when he’d guest star on Friends

and make us all laugh (more at him than with him, but still)?Remember when he didn’t walk around wearing ugly flatcaps and morbid black all the time?

Yes? Well these were the times when he was with Jennifer Aniston…wasn’t he so much coolerback then? And, well, even if he is still quite cool, we can barely keep up with Jennifer Aniston’s

loves, flings and rumored boyfriends that it would just be a lot easier if Brad and Jennifer gotback together. It’s probably off the cards, though. They split so long ago, they pre-dated the

joined-up-names nickname and never even got a chance to be called Brannifer :(

Peter Andre and Katie PriceWe won’t give you too much of a recap of their relationship history,

seeing as it’s been documented absolutely everywhere. And as nuts asKatie Price might seem, how lovely was she when she was married to Pete?

Also, if they have more children together, some of them could be as cuteas Princess Tiaamii. Now who wouldn’t want to see that?

Britney Spears and Justin TimberlakeThese two met on the set of the squeaky-clean Mickey Mouse Club

and were inseparable as teens. They started dating in 1999 whenBritney Spears supported *NSYNC on tour. After three years of Britneyinsisting she was a virgin (oh how the mighty have fallen) they split up

when it was alleged she’d bonked that Wade Robson dancer bloke. Eversince, everything’s gone swimmingly for Justin, but Britney’s, well, you know

Britney…But they looked SO cute together, and maybe, just maybe if they gotback together, they’ll be able to undo the last six years of rubbish...

Charlotte Church and Gavin HensonNow, we all know Gavin’s pretty unbearable – perma-tanned, silly-hairedand apparently not very good at rugby anymore – but we’d LOVE to see

this couple back together.Why? Well, they split while they were engaged, and can you IMAGINE

how amazing the wedding would’ve been?We’re not talking Big Fat GypsyWedding levels of excess, but we’re sure it would’ve come pretty close...

A married couple were on holiday in Morocco.They were touring around the market place looking

at the goods and such, when they passed a small sandal shop. From inside they heard a gentleman with a

Moroccan accent say, "You, foreigners! Come in. Come into myhumble shop." So the married couple walked in. The Moroccan man said to them, "I have some special sandals I think you'd beinterested in. They make you wild at sex like a great desert camel." Well, the wife was really interested in buying the sandals after what the man hadclaimed, but her husband felt he really didn't need them, being the sex hero hewas. The husband asked the man, "How could sandals make you into a god oflove?" The Moroccan man replied, "Why don't you try them on and see for your-self?" Well, the husband, after much badgering from his wife, finally conceded totry them on. As soon as he slipped them onto his feet, he got this wild look in hiseyes; something his wife hadn't seen in many years - raw sexual power. In a blink of an eye, the husband rushed the Moroccan man, threw him on a tableand started tearing at the guy's pants. All the time the Moroccan man was frantically screaming, "YOU HAVE THEM ON THE WRONG FEET!! "YOU HAVE THEM ON THE WRONG FEET!!!!!!!

The

boss of a

big

company needs to call one of his employees

about an urgent problem with one of the

main

computer systems, he dials the employee's

home phone number and is greeted with a

child's whisper,

"Hello."

"Is your daddy home?" he asked.

"Yes," whispered the small voice.

"May I talk with him?"

The child whispered,

"No."

Surprised, and wanting to talk with an adult,

the boss asked, "Is your mummy there?"

"Yes."

"May I talk with her?"

Again the small voice whispered, "No."

Hoping there was somebody with whom he

could leave a message, the man asked, "Is

anybody else there?"

"Yes," whispered the child, "a policeman."

Wondering what a cop would be doing at his

employee's home, the boss asked,

"May I speak with the policeman?"

"No, he's busy", whispered the child.

"Busy doing what?"

"Talking to Daddy and Mummy and the

Fireman", came the whispered answer.

Growing concerned and even worried as he

heard what sounded like a helicopter

through the earpiece on the phone the boss

asked, "What is that noise?" "A hello-copper"

answered the whispering voice.

"What is going on there?" asked the boss, now

alarmed.

In an awed whispering voice the child

answered, "The search team just landed the

hello-copper."

Alarmed, concerned, and even more then

just a little frustrated the boss asked, "What

are they searching for?"

Still whispering, the young voice replied

along with a muffled giggle:

"ME."-

A man was driving home one evening when he suddenlyrealises that it’s his daughter's birthday and that he hasn't

bought her anything. Out the corner of his eye he sees a shoppingcentre. Knowing it was "now or never", he pulls his car through three

lanes of traffic, finds a parking spot and runs in. After a frantic search hefinds a toyshop, goes inside and attracts the atten-

tion of a shop assistant. When asked what hewould like, he simply says "a Barbie doll".

The shop assistant looks at him in the particularlycondescending manner that only shop assistants

can muster and asks "Which Barbie would that be,sir?" The man looks surprised so the assistant con-

tinues "We have Barbie Goes to the Gym for19.95€, Barbie Goes to the Ball for 19.95€, Barbie

Goes Shopping for 19.95€, Barbie Goes to theBeach for 19.95€, Barbie Goes Night Clubbing for

19.95€, and Divorced Barbie for 265.00€"The man can't help himself and asks "why is

Divorced Barbie 265.00€ when all the other Barbiesare selling for

19.95€?" "That'sobvious!" says the

assistant,"Divorced Barbiecomes with Ken'shouse, Ken's car,Ken's furniture...

AA MM aa nn ’’ ss WW oo rr ll ddA fresh-faced lad on the eve of his wedding night asks

his mother, "Mum, why are wedding dresses white?" Themother looks at her son and replies, "Son, this shows the

town that your bride is pure." The son thanks his mum, andthen seeks his father opinion, "Dad, why are wedding

dresses white?" The father looks at his son in surprise andsays, "Son, all household appliances come in white."

One bright,beautiful Sunday morning, everyone in tinySmithville wakes up early and goes to their local church.

Before the service starts, the townspeople sit in their pewsand talk about their lives, their families, etc.

Suddenly, at the altar, Satan appears!! Everyone starts screamingand running for the front entrance, trampling each other in their deter-

mined efforts to get away from Evil Incarnate.Soon, everyone is evacuated from the church except for one man, who sat calmly in his pew,

seemingly oblivious to the fact that God's ultimate enemy is in his presence. This confuses Satan a bit.

Satan walks up to the man and says, "Hey, don't you know who I am?"The man says, "Yep, sure do."Satan says, "Well, aren't you afraid of me?"

The man says, "Nope, sure ain't."Satan, perturbed, says, "And why aren't you afraid of me?""Well, I've been married to your sister for 25 years.”

Ticks can appear anywhere on an animal. They can blow in on the wind,come on the goats or sheep or even be in the undergrowth. They can cause

Lyme disease which is both dangerous to pets and humans – it can be a killer. You must never smother a tick with alcohol or Vaseline or any other substance; this isan old wives tail. Yes it will suffocate them and encourage them to die slowly & eventu-ally drop off, BUT it will also encourage them (prior to death) to vomit and regurgitatetheir contents directly into the hosts body. In other words if they are carrying the Lymebacteria, this is a sure way to get it injected into the host. A simple tick remover tool isthe best safest, quickest way to remove them; we stock them here at Posh Pets.We know through experience how dangerous ticks can be as a member of my familycaught tick fever / lymes disease after a tick attached itself to him whilst renovating anold house. He was unaware of the danger and was ill for many months suffering fromweak limbs and joints it was only after a blood test six months later that a diagnosiswas given and the correct treatment & help finally given. It is a must for your pet to usea preventative measure for canines & felines such as effipro, frontline or advantixdrops that are put on the back of your pets necks, or for your pets to wear a preventa-tive collar such as a scalibor for dogs. Last year one pet that visited the salon and had340 ticks removed from his body – it was an awfully long job!! Fortunately we hadinvested in a brilliant little tick remover gadget. The tick remover gadget has two sizesof hooks they hook onto the tick and it is pulled out and never leaves the “ jaws”behind like tweezers sometimes do – it is quick, easy and extremely effective, a mustfor any household at only €5.00euros!!If anyone would like this super tick remover gadget please contact us:

Every year it’s the same thing, a lot ofpeople seek help for itchy eyes and runny

noses, symptoms varying in degree from sneezingto allergic asthma. Most people take some sort of

western medication i.e. antihistamine, nasal decongestantspray or cortisone based inhalers. Although these drugs alleviate their symptoms,they do not address the root of the problem and usually cause side effects.

Why consider acupuncture for hay fever?Well, it is highly effective, it will not cause side effects and it does not interferewith your body’s natural balance, instead it helps restore it!

Acupuncture regulates the blood flow and restores the body’s natural antihistamine production. Oriental medicine looks at hay fever as the immune system overacting and not being able to recognize what is a real threat. Bystrengthening the immune system and the underlying deficiency, the symptoms subside.Points on the head, around the nose and a few body points are used to effectivelyclear the hay fever symptoms in the short term. The best way is to start at thebeginning of the season so the body can build up immunity. 5 to 10 consecutivetreatments are usually required to take the edge off and further bi monthly or monthly follow up treatments are usually recommended depending on the individual case.

To further help the treatment, a spoon of local honey a day can be beneficial.Ginger and Red bush tea are natural antihistamines that strengthen the systemand help with the symptoms. We also recommend that you take zinc and chromium for the same reason.

Keeping off dairy food products will help in reducing your mucus levels.Making an attempt to avoid white sugar and replace it with brown sugar, honeyand molasses also helps.

Acupuncture can treat a variety of problems both physical and emotional; itseeks to restore the balance in an unbalanced system. Sometimes during treatments clients find other long standing complaints are resolved as the body isstrengthened as you recover.

The Restaurant, Dona Lola After meaning to go to “The Restaurant” for agesand since finding out that it has been established 13years, we were met by husband and wife team Carland Shelly in a warm and welcome atmosphere.We asked for a table where we could see Carl preparingthe food in his open kitchen and my wife managed to pickup a few preparation tips just by watching him! The hardestthing was deciding what to eat from the extensive a la carte menu of new and clas-sic dishes. I chose the Irish fillet steak, which was gorgeous and my wife had theWednesday night special – the slow roasted lamb which she said was amazing –the lamb just fell away from the bone and the mint and cranberry gravy compli-mented it perfectly.After the main course we pleased to see some of our old favourites includingbread and butter pudding, crème brulee and my favourite rice pudding – with theskin!!Just when we thought we had finished for the evening, Shelly offered us a liqueurcoffee of our choice on the house and topped with proper cream!All in it we had a fantastic evening and would give “the Restaurant” 10 out of 10!The only problem we have now is finding enough time to go back and try all theother dishes on such an extensive menu.

•• A few years ago in California there was a raging brush fire. Once the fire was extinguished,the firefighters began the process of clean up. In the middle of where the fire had beenburning, they found a dead man wearing a scuba tank and wet suit. At first the firefighterswere baffled as to why a man would be out in the middle of the countryside wearing fullscuba gear. Upon further examination, it was determined that the man died from the impactwith the ground and not the fire. As best anyone can determine, this man was scuba diving offthe coast of California and was accidentally picked up by one of the firefighting aircraft whenit was refilling its water tanks offshore.

•• Walter Hallas, a 26-year-old shop assistant in Leeds, was so afraid of dentists that in 1979 heasked a fellow worker to try to cure his toothache by punching him in the jaw. The punchcaused Hallas to fall down, hitting his head, and he died of a fractured skull.

•• George Schwartz, owner of a factory in Providence, RI narrowly escaped death when ablast flattened his factory except for one wall. After treatment for minor injuries, he returnedto the scene to search for his files. The remaining wall then collapsed on him, killing himinstantly.

•• A man hit by a car in New York City in 1977 got up injured, but laid back down in front ofthe car when a bystander told him to pretend he was hurt so he could collect insurancemoney. The car then rolled forward and crushed him to death.

EconomyAs widely expected the ECB sanc-tioned a quarter-point increase in inter-est rates, to 1.25%, at its 7 AprilGoverning Council meeting. Given ongo-ing volatility in ‘peripheral ’ euro area gov-ernment bond markets, the ECB has sent astrong signal that it is committed to preservingprice stability over the medium term, and avoidinflation hitting wages. Economic activity in Spain rose by a modest 0.2% quar-ter-on-quarter in 2010 Q4. But this weak pace of growth charac-terised by a declining construction sector – is clearly not a new story. Financial marketsare focused on ‘bigger picture’ issues such as progress on fiscal consolidation and thestrength of Spain’s domestic banking sector. Specifically, Spain has announced a fiscalausterity package incorporating measures such as income tax increase for those earningover €120,000, along with cuts in public sector salaries and a suspension of automaticincreases in pensions. This comes on top of a €50bn austerity plan implemented inJanuary last year. More recently, Prime Minister Zapatero has urged Spain’s seventeenautonomous regions to curtail their spending in a drive to achieve this year’s target forthe public sector deficit of 6% of GDP – agreed in September’s budget - en route to 3%by 2013.

PropertyThe housing downturn in Spain is lagging behind that of other countries experiencing acredit-fuelled consumer and housing boom-turned-bust. Valuation measures, such as thehouse price-to-income ratio, suggest that house prices in Spain would still need to fallconsiderably to return to their ‘fair value’. In particular, they would need to decline by afurther one-quarter or so just to bring this indicator in line with its long-term average.Analysts are not suggesting that Spanish house prices will decline by one-quarter fromwhere they are now. The actual peak-to-trough fall will depend on many circumstances,ranging from the effectiveness of the policy measures to demographic factors.

With all the interest in saving the planet, many man-ufacturers are now producing electric cars – but this

is no new thing………..Ferdinand Porsche, head engineer at Jakob Lohner &

Co., became famous overnight when he was agedjust 24 his first car was presented at the 1900 World

Exhibition in Paris. The Lohner-Porsche ElectricVoiturette featured a motor mounted on each of its

front wheel-hubs and a 44-cell, 80-volt lead battery:it could reach up to 36mph, and had an operating

range of around three hours' usage betweenrecharges. In all around 300 Lohner-Porsches were

produced.

The 1910 Waverley Coupe was a luxury car that com-bined quality, value, efficiency, and convenience,

making it one of the premier electric cars of theearly 1900’s. It seated 4, and was quite easy to cus-

tomize, allowing for different colors, tops, batteries,and even tires.

In 1940, the French government commissioned CGEwas born. One set of lead acid batteries was stored

at the front of the car, while a second set was kept inthe rear. It was a truly impressive car, setting a

record in 1942 by completing the 250-km trek fromParis to Tours, France at an average speed of

58km/h. It was expensive and only 200 were pro-duced, there are only 2 known survivors.

Tachikawa Airplane Company (Now known as Nissan)introduced the Tama in 1947 which was a 2-door, 4

seat saloon with a top speed of 35 km/h and a maxi-mum range of 65 km on a single charge. The compa-

ny changed its name to Tokyo Electric Motorcar Co.and continued to release a succession of improved

models. The 1949 model known as the Senior wascapable of 200 km on a single charge.

In 1978 Globe Union claimed that their Endura couldcover more than 100 miles at speeds of 30-35 MPHand could top 65 MPH. Charging time was given as

14-16 hours. Perhaps the most interesting thingabout the body was the interchangeable rear body

sections that transformed the car from a hatchbackinto an estate.

How Do You Repeat That Good Shot

Golf is about repetition most golfersspend hours on the driving ranges andpractice grounds striving to repeat theswing that will play the perfect shot weall search for, but one of the most com-mon statements I hear from some of thehardest practicing golfers I meet is I cando it on the practice ground but I can’ttake it to the course.It is foolish to believe that every shot weplay could be perfect but in order tostand a chance of playing more goodballs than bad it is important to developa routine that you go through each time, starting with selecting the shot youwant to play , selecting the club youwant to play it with, practice swings, setup system and then the shot doingeverything exactly the same way everytime and even winding in your own per-sonal touches to ensure things alwaysproceed in the same order, like Faldostweak of the trouser leg or Couple’s pullof the shirt.

What you must develop is the same rou-tine start to finish every time you play ashot, next time you go to the practiceground take with you a small note pad,give each part of your routine a number

1. Look at the shot2. Select the club3. Practice swing4. Set up the shot5. Play the shot

It is important that this routine does notinclude thoughts of how the swing willwork and you must spend your practicesession concentrating on the routinethen take it to the course, remember the

same routine can be repeated giving youmore chance of repeating those goodshots.

Cancer

Leo

Virgo

Libra

Scorpio

Sagittarius

The work you do in May could give the financial sup-port you have been looking for, or enable you the ability to support others' talents orcauses. Many of you will achieve more recognition, a promotion, or a position ofincreased responsibility on the work/career front this spring and summer 2011, unusualdevelopments in May seem to push you in this direction.

Love wise, some of you single Leo’s will be meeting a newromantic interest this month if you are attached you will be experiencing a rejuvenationof romance.

Business relationships are strong this month, Virgo. You have that extra "edge" when itcomes to appealing to superiors as well as co-workers use this to your advantage. Achange of residence, a working partnership, maybe an opportunity to work from home,or an alliance with an old family friend or co-worker could be in the offing. Reticenceabout changes in a close personal relationship is something you have been strugglingwith for some time, now is a good time to examine what is holding you back.

May is a strong month for you’re social life, negotiations, and communications, Sagittarius.However, before the 15th, some conversations can be strained and non-productive, par-ticularly with a partner and at work. It's best to leave important conversations for the sec-ond half of May. Problems balancing career and family obligations are likely throughoutthe month but remember attitude is everything, so it’s worth the effort you give in thelong run. Your spirit for adventure runs high, yet you are especially busy with work obli-gations and health routines. A new home or living arrangement might be in the offing. The26th-28th brings a surprising personal revelation. It's time to listen to your heart.

May is an excellent month for giving your close personal relationships the attention theydeserve, Scorpio. By mid-month, tensions and communication troubles clear up. A part-ner is more willing to share himself/herself on deeper, intimate levels. May 13th bringsa rush of positive energy to a partnership. It's a great time for making new resolutions.Finances bring pleasant surprises this month and next, but money could be spent asquickly as it is earned if you are not careful! Your hobbies or sideline work can earn yousome extra cash this month.
