Science: Staring at breasts healthy for men?

Vanguard, Oct. 22, 2019; FACT CHECK: Breast Gazing? (snopes.com); Eds.,  Wisdom Quarterly

MEDICAL NEWS: Staring at breasts makes men live longer, healthier — scientific study
My eyes are up here. - I know. I'm working out.
A study done by German scientist Dr. Karen Weatherby, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, has revealed that lustily gazing with admiration at women’s breasts is healthy and lengthens the lifespan of men.

The study, which was carried out over a period of five years, involved 500 men, half of whom were instructed to stare at women’s breasts in a lustful manner for no less than 10 minutes every day.

I've always been interested in life extension.
The other half were instructed to abstain from doing such.

It concluded that men who stared at breasts, more often, showed lower rates of heart problems, slower resting heart rate, and lower blood pressure, all of which enable a healthy living and long life.

The study said men should stare at breasts for 10 minutes a day to improve the wellness of their hearts and live longer.

Doctor's orders! - That's just men, Dear.
“Just 10 minutes of staring at the charms of a well-endowed female every day is roughly equivalent to a 30-minute aerobics work-out,” the study revealed.

When the two groups of men were tested, men that stared at breasts daily had lower blood pressure, slower resting pulse rates, as well as fewer instances of coronary artery disease.

Glad to see me? Yes, almost put an eye out.
“Sexual excitement gets the heart pumping and improves blood circulation. Gazing at breasts makes men healthier and engaging in this activity a few minutes daily cuts the risk of stroke and heart attack by half.

“We believe that by doing so consistently, the average man can extend his life for four to five years,’’ it added. Source

DNA USA: Genetic Portrait of America

Dr. Brian Sykes, Oxford (amazon.com); Seth Auberon, Ashley Wells (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly
Thai-black Tiger Woods with Swedish wife/mother Elin Norgedren while cheating*
Crisscrossing the continent, a renowned geneticist provides a groundbreaking examination of America through DNA.
The best-selling author of The Seven Daughters of Eve: The Science That Reveals Our Genetic Ancestry now turns his sights on the United States of America, one of the most genetically variegated countries in the world.
  • *It's not easy being of blended race: "[Tiger Woods] once got in trouble with the black community in America for saying he sometimes felt more Thai than black. He's also cited his Thai [Theravada] Buddhist upbringing as something that keeps him calm and focused on the course..." (CNN).
The Seven Daughter of Eve
From the blue-blooded pockets of old-WASP ("White Anglo Saxon Protestant") state of New England to the vast tribal lands of the Navajo, Oxford University genetic scientist Bryan Sykes takes us on a historical genetic tour interviewing:
  • genealogists
  • geneticists
  • anthropologists
  • everyday Americans with compelling ancestral stories. His findings suggest:
  • Among white Americans, evidence of African DNA is most common in the South [where rape of slaves and servants was a common practice, which continues today as human sex trafficking].
  • Of Americans whose ancestors came as slaves, virtually all have some European DNA. [Most slaves in the USA were indigenous people taken into slavery here, not brought over from anywhere but the Americas.]
  • Racial intermixing appears least common among descendants of early New England colonists. [Before long they joined the melting pot, too.]
  • There is clear evidence of Jewish genes among descendants of southwestern Spanish Catholics. [Columbus was said to be a converso, a Jew induced to convert to Catholicism.]
  • European genes appeared among Native Americans as early as 10,000 years ago. [There were many "giants" (ogres, Sasquatches, Nephilim), some with red hair and six fingers and toes, and other hominin species here at first contact as Chinese and Afghan Buddhists, Hindus, Egyptians, Africans, Vikings, and many other seafarers tried to explore and sometimes exploit new lands.]
An unprecedented look into America's genetic mosaic and how we perceive race, DNA USA challenges the very notion of what we think it means to be "American" with 8 pages of color illustrations and 8 pages of black-and-white illustrations. More

Genetic history of Ireland, Britain, America

One of the world's leading geneticists, Oxford University's Bryan Sykes, has helped thousands find their ancestry in the British Isles.

Saxons, Vikings, and Celts, which resulted from a systematic 10-year DNA survey of more than 10,000 volunteers.

It traces the true genetic makeup of the British Isles and its descendants.

This illuminating guide provides a much-needed introduction to the genetic history of the people of the British Isles and their descendants throughout the world. More

Occupy the Super Bowl (video)

Wisdom Quarterly



What is American football symbolic of? According to Jean Houston, the game is 11 young heroes guiding the sacred egg through the womb of the goal posts while ersatz virgins cheer them on ecstatically. This year the Occupy Movement will remind the 1% and the global TV -viewing population that we are still here and Wall Street bankers are still exerting undue influence on our political systems. What influence? "Right to work" legislation has one purpose and one purpose alone -- to destroy unions.

The protests continue

Occupy protesters hope to grab a share of the Super Bowl 2012 spotlight. Demonstrations to include march against "right to work" legislation. Super Bowl XLVI is bringing tens of thousands of football fans to Indianapolis, but it is also attracting a collection of protest groups. The Occupy movement, known for its protests against Wall Street, will take over the south lawn of the Statehouse... More

(Homer1co) After a prolonged battle with NFL management, unionized players have a lot of nerve playing in a state that is going to deny labor rights to workers. That makes NFL players scabs or hypocrites. Should we boycott the NFL until they get their head back in the fresh air and out of...? All union-member NFL might consider doing the same. The NFL players' union should be the one to call for a Superbowl strike but it is the 99%. Without the union NFL players would not be where they are today. More


As Indiana pressed forward to pass the (Doublespeak) "Right to Work" bill, Gigguy Warner and his fellow tradesman have something to say about it. This bogus bill is wrong, and senators need to hear our voice as unionized workers. The round is lost but the fight is not over!

What is Obama doing taxing the rich at a level close to Clinton and destroying unions?

Large Buddhist Temple Gains U.S. Approval


(PDN) Plans for a 60-foot-high Theravada Buddhist Temple gained construction approval in the small town of Raynham, Massachusetts, according to local media sources.

The temple grounds will encompass a 60-foot-high monastery, cultural center, museum, and residence for about 16 Thai Buddhist monks living in the area.

Having used in a small New England farmhouse for the past four years, a group of Thai Buddhist monks have gained approval from the local Planning Board to construct what will be one of the largest Buddhist temples in the world.

The temple and meditation center will be used for educational and religious purposes, including meditation and chanting services, religious rites, and teaching about Buddhism, Thai culture, and language.

Topped with a 180-foot golden spear the complex will culminate the long-held dream of Boston-area Thai residents to have a place of worship for their religious beliefs and revered King Rama IX, Bhumibol Adulyadej, who was born in nearby Cambridge in 1927. More>>
