...Other harrumphers really got in touch with their inner misogynist. "As a life-long golfer, I can attest that being AWAY from women is part of the attraction," an emailer to the conservative magazine, National Review, explained. "Furthermore, a local sports station held a survey recently and discovered that contrary to popular belief, men don't want their women interested in sports at all. It's an escape for most men. It offers a chance for men to reconnect with their manliness (or boyishness) with other men, and cast off the domestic shackles for a short time, and to have...
...principle is simple. While Botox works by paralyzing the facial muscles that help form wrinkles, fillers plump up wrinkles from within the dermis, or inner skin. Most of them do so by replenishing collagen. As we age, sun damage and pollution turn collagen--the protein scaffolding that holds the inner skin firm--into protein mush. At the same time, the dermis begins to lose much of the moisture it once retained, and it becomes parched, withered and incapable of keeping the outer skin taut. "Fillers give youth to the face because they add the volume that time has taken away...
...arrests could also help investigators unravel the inner workings of al-Qaeda. FBI sources say Attash, a key suspect in the October 2000 bombing of the U.S.S.

...many SARS cases in total have hit China's villages, where 800 million people live. But in Hebei alone, the number of reported cases shot up from 48 at the end of April to 157 on May 10. The World Health Organization (WHO) recently issued a travel advisory for Inner Mongolia and Tianjin, after their SARS caseloads rose to 284 and 149 respectively. Last week, Premier Wen Jiabao said there is currently "no large-scale epidemic emerging in the rural areas." Even so, he warned that dilapidated medical facilities, poor equipment and shoddy monitoring for epidemics were "hidden dangers...
...Inner Mongolia's SARS control office now requires visitors to quarantine themselves for up to two weeks. (That's lax compared with Taiwan, which has slapped outright bans on travelers from the mainland, Hong Kong, Singapore and Canada.) China's central government has insisted that the country's internal borders will remain open, but mobs of angry villagers bent on protecting their towns have thrown up ad hoc roadside health checks and blockades. Ming Productions, a film company scheduled to shoot four movies in China over the coming year, has had to postpone much of its slate because of SARS...
