The One Flaw In Women

By the time the Lord made woman,
He was into his sixth day of working overtime.
An angel appeared and said,
'Why are you spending so much time on this one?'
And the Lord answered, 'Have you seen my spec sheet on her?
She has to be completely washable, but not plastic,
have over 200 movable parts, all replaceable
and able to run on diet coke and leftovers,
have a lap that can hold four children at one time,
have a kiss that can cure anything from a scraped knee to a broken heart-and she will do everything with only two hands.'

The angel was astounded at the requirements.
'Only two hands!? No way!
And that's just on the standard model?
That's too much work for one day.
Wait until tomorrow to finish.'

'But I won't, ' the Lord protested.
'I am so close to finishing this creation that is so close to my own heart.
She already heals herself when she is sick AND can work 18 hour days.'

The angel moved closer and touched the woman.
'But you have made her so soft, Lord.'

'She is soft,' the Lord agreed,
' but I have also made her tough.
You have no idea what she can endure or accomplish.'

'Will she be able to think? ', asked the angel.

The Lord replied,
'Not only will she be able to think,
she will be able to reason and negotiate.'
The angel then noticed something,
and reaching out, touched the woman's cheek.
'Oops, it looks like you have a leak in this model.
I told you that you were trying to put too much into this one.'

'That's not a leak,' the Lord corrected,
' that's a tear!'
'What's the tear for?' the angel asked.

The Lord said, 'The tear is her way of expressing her joy,
her sorrow, her pain, her disappointment, her love,
her loneliness, her grief and her pride.'
The angel was impressed.
'You are a genius, Lord. You thought of everything!
Woman is truly amazing.'

And she is!
Women have strengths that amaze men.
They bear hardships and they carry burdens,
but they hold happiness, love and joy.
They smile when they want to scream.
They sing when they want to cry.
They cry when they are happy
and laugh when they are nervous.
They fight for what they believe in.
They stand up to injustice.
They don't take 'no' for an answer
when they believe there is a better solution.
They go without so their family can have.
They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.
They love unconditionally.
They cry when their children excel
and cheer when their friends get awards.
They are happy when they hear about a birth or a wedding.
Their hearts break when a friend dies.
They grieve at the loss of a family member,
yet they are strong when they think there is no strength left.
They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a broken heart.
Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors.
They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you
to show how much they care about you.
The heart of a woman is what makes the world keep turning.
They bring joy, hope and love.
They have compassion and ideals.
They give moral support to their family and friends.
Women have vital things to say and everything to give

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE TINY FLAW IN WOMEN,

IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

When Natalya M. was rushed to a hospital in Voronezh, Russia, the doctors didn’t believe their eyes – the woman had a gigantic skin-fat growth on her belly that didn’t let her walk normally. It was 36 inches long and weighed 125 pounds.

Natalya was overweight since 13, when she had hormonal disturbance. She tried all the existing diets, visited hundreds of doctors, but with no result. Years passed as her belly was growing larger and larger. Finally it became so huge that the woman literally had to stump it to make a step.

Oleg Strigin, the head of the department of surgery of the hospital, where the woman was rushed, said they don’t do such complicated surgeries often. He said there are 4 levels of the belly-growth: the inch of more than 4-inch length belongs to the 4th level. We’ve never seen the growth of 36 inches!

The growth-removing surgery lasted for many hours. The surgeons removed fat the weight of a grown-up woman!

Later the surgeons showed Natalya what she was wearing. The woman was shocked and deeply grateful to the surgeons for having saved her life. Natalya has always dreamed about having a baby. Now her dream may come true. She is starting a new life. Only pictures of her old body and the scars on her stomach mind her of her previous life.

A woman survived nine hours in sub-zero temperatures after falling 30ft into an icy ravine.

Mandy Evans became so cold that her body temperature fell from 98.6F (37C) to 77F (25C), bringing her close to death.

When rescuers found the 43-year-old, her heart had slowed so much that they first believed she was dead.

Dr Linda Dykes, who treated Mrs Evans at Gwynedd Hospital in Bangor, North Wales, said that anything below 86F (30C) could be critical.

She said: "At 25C she was the coldest person I've seen by at least four degrees.

"That's not a record by a long way, but the mortality rate for hypothermia when the temperature is so cold is very high.

"We warmed her up by giving her warm oxygen and infusing warm fluids in various ways.

"We passed warm air over blankets while we looked for other injuries and gave her a scan."

Mrs Evans described yesterday how she fell down the ravine at Coed Pandy near her home in Dolgellau, north Wales, while looking for her 17-year-old son, Scott, at 2am on Easter Sunday, although the family did not say why.

She spent the night in freezing temperatures as a search party, which included her husband, Keith, and daughter, Hayley, 19, looked for her.

Mrs Evans was eventually found at 11am by Scott, Paul Crowley her daughter's boyfriend, and his friend Wayne Povey.

Mr Crowley, 22, said: "When I saw her lying there I thought the worst. Scott was really upset to see his mum and Wayne took him away to tell the others where we were.

"I stayed with Mandy until more help arrived."

Police and paramedics took care of Mrs Evans until a helicopter arrived from RAF Valley to take her to hospital.

From her hospital bed, Mrs Evans, who broke a rib, said: "I'm lucky to be alive. I lost my footing on the path and fell into a tree.

"I was hanging onto it upside down and trying to pull myself up. I was calling out for help. It was dark but I knew there was a sheer drop. I thought to myself if I fell I would be dead. My clothes ripped and I fell. I ended up half in the river with my head on a rock.

"It was raining and I'm lucky I wasn't washed away by the water.

"Dr Dykes says I'll be in the record books. She said I did incredibly well to come round so quickly."

Records show that Mrs Evans is the coldest person ever admitted to the hospital with hypothermia and survived.

When a person reaches temperatures of 89.6F (32C) it is classed as a medical emergency.

Symptoms can include hallucinations, delirium, complete confusion and extreme sleepiness.

At 82.4F (28C) people will experience severe heart rhythm disturbances and breathing may stop at any time.

However, when body temperature reaches about 78.8F (26C) or less, death usually occurs because of an irregular heart beat or respiratory arrest.

Patients have been known to survive with body temperatures as low as 57.5F (14.2C).

DALLAS (AP) -- Well-dressed men at posh Dallas hotels and bars are being targeted by a ring of flirtatious women who may be drugging them before swiping their watches and other expensive items, police said.

One man was hurt after possibly being beaten with a high-heeled shoe, police said. Another lost his wallet while in his car with his pants around his ankles.

About a half-dozen men have reported falling victim to the scheme, Dallas police detective Mark Jenkins said. Many were business travelers, and Jenkins suspects there are others too embarrassed to file police reports.

"I don't know if so much it's that the men are being attracted to them, as that (the suspects) are more or less forcing themselves on the men," Jenkins said.

The stylish W hotel in downtown Dallas is among the places where the alleged thefts began. Authorities said the women knew that were looking for; several of the victims wore Rolex watches.

The women have histories as prostitutes, Jenkins said.

In one case, police said a 37-year-old Tampa, Fla., executive lost his iPod, laptop and $4,000 watch after accepting a beer from one of the women.

The women may be slipping drugs into the drinks of their victims, police said.
