New Zealand Woman Breaks World Record, Runs For 311 Miles In 81 Hours Without Sleeping

For someone who does not especially enjoy running, Kim Allan is pretty good at it.

Allan, a 47-year-old mother of four from New Zealand, recently broke the record for running without sleep, covering 311 miles in 86 nonstop hours.

For Allan, it's not the running that she enjoys, per se, it's the mental stimulus.

"There's ultra runners who go out and train huge miles - that’s not me," she told a local reporter. "It’s the beating my own mind that I like. Thinking you can’t do something then you go out and do it.”

                             

After breaking her leg a decade ago Allan, a former jockey, determined that when her leg healed she would never "take for granted the ability to get out of bed and walk." She tried to break the world record of 302 miles in 80 hours last year, but she had to stop after experiencing hallucinations and losing all her toe nails.

Allan fought through stomach pain, as well as severe blisters on her feet, this year to finish the unbelievable challenge. She's said that for her, going on a two-hour run is "just a drag." But somehow she was able to will herself through the equivalent of 12 marathons.

According to the New Zealand Herald, Allan used her performance to collect money for the New Zealand Spinal Trust, and thus far she has raised several thousand dollars.

10 things never say to a man

To you, it's just a few words. To him, it's a short sentence that he'll never, ever forget. Here, the seemingly innocent observations that can really rock a relationship.

"I really don't respect you." 

"My wife and I probably use the word 'respect' about as much as we use the word 'love.' Both words were in our wedding vows," says Dave, 36, about why the R-word is just as important to him as the L-word. "And when I hear that she doesn't respect me, it's almost like her saying she doesn't love me. Luckily, she's never said it-precisely because we had a whole conversation about how we'll never throw around that word like that." 

Your tummy is so cute! 

"Please, call it what it is-a beer gut!" jokes Chad, 38. All kidding aside, the men we spoke with said that they have the same body image issues as women, which means that making fun of him when he's gained a few will make him feel insecure too. 

"I love when you get all mad." 

Is he fuming because he's behind a car that's oh-so-annoyingly crawling along in the left lane? Sure, it's fine to make a joke, but Jeff, 40, suggests making it at the other driver's expense. "I know I can get worked up about minor stuff, but when I hear this, I feel like it's harder to be honest about my feelings when it comes to things that really matter to me, because I'm worried she's going to shoot me down." 

"He acts like such a baby when his team loses." 

"This is something I've overheard my wife say on the phone to her friends," says Charles, 38. "I know she's talking about me, but she uses the same voice she uses when she's talking about our 3-year-old having a temper tantrum." While no one likes to be talked about behind their back, guys are especially sensitive to lack of loyalty. Yes, the way he freaks out when his team blows a playoff game is funny-but if he's not laughing, it's best to keep it on the DL, at least while your husband is in earshot. There's another reason: "When I hear her talking about me to her friends when she thinks I'm not listening, I can't help but wonder what else she may talk about." 

"Do whatever you want." 

Unless you're saying this with a smile because it's his birthday or he just bought a winning lottery ticket, when guys hear this, their stomachs sink. "I feel like I'm on a game show. Just tell me the right answer!" begs Bryan, 29. Men everywhere agree: If you have something in mind, spill it instead of making him play a guessing game. 

"Do you think I actually believe you?" 

This ties back to respect, says David, who asks, "If she doesn't believe me, then why are we even trying to have a conversation?" If you're questioning his honesty and integrity-and not whatever lie you think he may be covering up-that's what you two need to have a serious discussion about. 

"You're just like your dad." 

"I love my dad, but when my girlfriend is scowling at me and saying that, I don't want to be like him," says James. And even if he and his father get along great, it's not always ideal to compare them. Instead, speak directly to whatever he's doing that's bothering you. 

"What do you think that was about?" 

When said in the bedroom, this phrase hits below-the-belt-literally. Performance issues happen, and the more you ask about them, the more likely they are to come (er) up again. "Sometimes things don't work the way they should, either because I've had too much beer, or am stressed out, or just because. And trust me, I'm obsessing over it...and I'd like to at least pretend you aren't too," says George, 40. If it only happens once in a while, just let it go. 

"Should I call the emergency room and let them prepare?" 

"I admit that my D.I.Y. projects may have landed me in the emergency room once or twice in the past, but reminding me only makes me feel like an idiot, and more likely to mess up," explains Avery, 28. If you're nervous about your guy cleaning the gutters, powering up the lawn mower, cutting down branches, or wielding a glue gun, the best way to get around it may be to discreetly hire a pro while his mind is on something else. 

"Are you sure we can afford that?" 

"The worst is when she says this in front of a salesman," says Chad. "I feel like I'm a failure." If you're heading out to buy a big-ticket item and don't want to blow the budget, research prices beforehand and use phrases like, "This seems over our target," so it sounds strategic, not like you and your guy are scraping the bottom of your savings account.

What's the etiquette of 'Selfies' at funeral?

On its face, the now-viral photo of Denmark's Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt taking a "selfie" with President Barack Obama and British Prime Minister David Cameron—at amemorial service for anti-apartheid hero Nelson Mandela, no less—looks wildly inappropriate. And no question, President Obama has taken a lot of media heat for participating. (It didn't help that the expression on Michelle Obama's face appeared to be disapproving.)

In the realm of funeral etiquette, those two factors—the memorial service, the glowering wife-- taken together, scream "social faux pas." But there was more to the story behind the image. Roberto Schmidt, the photographer who captured the photo told the "Today" show that he shot the picture during a jovial, celebratory portion of the service. He said people were dancing, singing and laughing as they celebrated the life of Nelson Mandela. Michelle Obama, he said, had been laughing along with the trio seconds before he snapped the image.

Understood. But a few questions remain. Is it proper to take a selfie at a funeral? And was President Obama out of line for doing so -- because he is the president, you know.

Under the circumstances Schmidt described, I'd say the selfie was not necessarily in poor taste for the President. But was it poor form? As President of the United States, a man watched and scrutinized at every angle, he is no doubt very careful about how his behavior is perceived. He surely knew that picture would wind up pinging around the Internet and on the evening news and cleverly headlined front pages. Perhaps he wanted to send a message to the people, anyway, to say, "Hey, I'm just like you."

Now if he wanted to avoid the scrutiny altogether and send a more somber message to the public, he might have held off and joined in on the picture in a more private setting. The moment, however, did not seem to call for such discretion. What's my bottom line? President Obama's behavior was appropriate for that particular occasion, for that particular culture at that precise moment.

And what is the protocol for behavior at funerals for the rest of us: selfies and beyond?

Well, if you, too, happen to attend a funeral or memorial service at a stadium where the people are up dancing and singing and laughing in the aisles, then it's perfectly fine to take a selfie with your seat mates.

The key here is that there is a proper time and place for everything, and that's where decorum comes in. That I would need to explain this will seem surprising to some, but this is, after all, a time when websites such as Selfies at a Funeral exist. So bear with me: Firing off a selfie during a solemn moment such as the prayer or scripture reading is highly inappropriate and terribly disrespectful.

The same shot during the gathering or meal service afterward is all right. Taking photos within the confines of the church or synagogue or funeral home can be perceived as highly inappropriate. It is important to be aware of this and remain respectful of the family, the culture and the environment you are in.

Funerals and memorials take on a different meaning from culture to culture; some are very somber, others quite celebratory. It is our duty to be sensitive to the entire moment and in some cases it might be difficult to tell what that requires. Here's a handy rule of thumb: To avoid offending, err on the side of caution and just hold off on that selfie until the funeral has ended.

The Shahara Bridge

Shahara Bridge is one of the greatest historical engineering feats in Yemen

this bridge was built in the 16th century and served the purpose of connecting the village of Shahara to that of Shaharat Al-Fays across a gorge of 300 meters deep, so people could at that time move easily from town to another. A rumor was common that the bridge was built to fight the Turkish invaders, in connection with legend that the bridge could be removed when danger loomed, but recognized sources did not mention anything of that. It designed and built by Salah Al-Yemen at the orders of Al-Asta Saleh Al-Suaidi, its construction cost more than a 100,000 silver rials.

                          

the bridge is used by the locals on a daily basis, and is widely regarded an architectural masterpiece. It also attracts visitors from around the world, but the area is inhospitable and not easily accessible. Shaharah and Shaharat Al-Fays are only accessible by car, which must either be personally owned or a rental. Safety measures do no allow visitors to take a taxi, unless accompanied by an official tour guide.

Avoid sitting on anything in your back pocket

It is very important safety tip, as we do not focus on this in our daily life, therefore sitting on your anything in your back pocket, for long time this might cause multiple problems in the spine especially for those who got used to keep their wallets or money in their back pocket for long hours. Anyone drives more than half hour he/she should not sit on his/her wallet.

Therefore you have to make sure that you already got everything out from your back pocket whenever sit in any chair.

(Do not ever sit on your wallet or anything else)

Your wallet can be real pain for your back and waist, and it can even lead to shooting pains down and legs. Sitting on a wallet for prolonged hours every day can compress sciatic nerve which passes beneath piriformis muscle and will lead to piriformis syndrome, low back pain and self-inflicted sciatica.

This wallet acts as a wedge that forces pelvis spine and body out of alignment.  

The safely tip

The healthiest option for this is to move the wallet to your front pocket, if it is must to keep wallet in your back pocket, and then remove it before you sit down to any elsewhere.

Thermonuclear Weapon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A thermonuclear weapon is a nuclear weapon design that uses the heat generated by a fission bomb to compress a nuclear fusion stage which indirectly results in greatly increased energy yield (i.e., bomb "power"). It is colloquially referred to as ahydrogen bomb or H-bomb because it employs hydrogen fusion, though in most applications the majority of its destructive energy comes from uranium fission, not hydrogen fusion by itself. The fusion stage in such weapons is required to efficiently cause the large quantities of fission characteristic of most thermonuclear weapons.^[1]

The concept of the thermonuclear weapon was first developed and used by the United States and has since been used in most of the world's nuclear weapons.^[2] The modern design of all thermonuclear weapons in the United States is known as the Teller-Ulam design for its two chief contributors, Edward Teller and Stanisław Ulam, who developed it in 1951 for the U.S., with certain concepts developed with the contribution of John von Neumann. The first test of this principle was the "Ivy Mike" nuclear test in 1952, conducted by the United States. In the Soviet Union, the design was independently developed and known as Andrei Sakharov's "Third Idea", first tested in 1955. Similar devices were developed by the United Kingdom, China, and France, though no specific code names are known for their designs.

As thermonuclear weapons represent the most efficient design for weapon energy yield in weapons with yields above 50 kilotons, today virtually all the nuclear weapons deployed by the five nuclear-weapon states under the NPT are thermonuclear weapons using the Teller–Ulam design.^[3]

The essential features of the mature thermonuclear weapon design, which officially remained secret for nearly three decades, are: 1) separation of stages into a triggering "primary" explosive and a much more powerful "secondary" explosive, 2) compression of the secondary by X-rays coming from nuclear fission in the primary, a process called the "radiation implosion" of the secondary, and 3) heating of the secondary, after cold compression, by a second fission explosion inside the secondary.

The radiation implosion mechanism is a heat engine exploiting the temperature difference between the secondary's hot, surrounding radiation channel and its relatively cool interior. This temperature difference is briefly maintained by a massive heat barrier called the "pusher", which also serves as an implosion tamper, increasing and prolonging the compression of the secondary. If made of uranium—and it usually is—it can capture neutrons produced by the fusion reaction and undergo fission itself, increasing the overall explosive yield. In many Teller–Ulam weapons, fission of the pusher dominates the explosion and produces radioactive fission product fallout.

Disadvantages Of Viagra

Since its introduction in 1998, Viagra has been a boon to millions of men. There have been many positive reports on improvement in sexual health and well-being. Viagra has enough drawbacks, however, that many people fail to use it successfully, discontinue the drug after a single use, or are deterred by serious side effects.

 

It's Only Physical

According to Dr. Mike Sweeney of Pfizer, the manufacturer of Viagra, "Giving somebody a good erection doesn't necessarily give somebody good sex." Because Viagra can be so effective at improving sexual performance, couples often look to it as a solution to their relationship problems. Viagra is a remedy for only the physical aspects of impotence, however. Contrary to expectations, it cannot increase a low sex drive, help a person learn better interpersonal skills, or improve deficits in sexual know-how.

 

Dependency and Detachment

The regular use of Viagra by men who are usually not impotent can lead to a psychological dependency. Such individuals may find themselves unable to function sexually without using the drug. Furthermore, since Viagra brings on a relatively quick and effortless reaction to sexual stimulation, a man may be unable to take the time to connect with his emotional experiences or those of his partner. As a result, Viagra users may feel numb or detached during their sexual experiences.

 

Side Effects

Viagra affects blood cells and bloods vessels in the head, skin, causing annoying side effects such as headaches, flushed skin and indigestion. The more problematic side effects of the drug, which includes dizziness, hearing loss and visual effects such as blurred vision, means that the timing and necessity of driving a car or operating other machinery must be carefully considered when using Viagra. The higher the dosages of the medication, the more likely that side effects will occur.

 

Drug Interactions

Men who need Viagra often have other medical issues and there is a potential for dangerous interactions between the Viagra and their prescription medications . Combining Viagra with such medications can increase unwanted effects and hamper the activity of the medications. Drugs such as nitroglycerin used to treat heart conditions, the alpha-blockers used for prostate problems, the HIV protease inhibitors, or the street drugs known as "poppers" can lead to cardiovascular problems when combined with Viagra.

 

Risk Factors

Men with risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol or diabetes must exercise caution when using the drug. This is because Viagra works by causing the arteries to expand in order to encourage increased blood flow to the penis. This, in turn, affects the blood pressure and can possibly contribute to the development of an abnormal heart rate, a stroke or a heart attack, all of which can lead to sudden death.

Cholesterol

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cholesterol, from the Greek chole- (bile) and stereos (solid) followed by the chemical suffix -ol for an alcohol, is an organic chemical substance classified as a waxy steroid of fat. It is an essential structural component of mammalian cell membranes and is required to establish proper membrane permeability and fluidity.

In addition to its importance within cells, cholesterol also serves as a precursor for the biosynthesis of steroid hormones, bile acids, and vitamin D.[2] Cholesterol is the principal sterol synthesized by animals; in vertebrates it is formed predominantly in the liver. Small quantities are synthesized in other cellular organisms (eukaryotes) such as plants and fungi. It is almost completely absent amongprokaryotes (i.e., bacteria).

Although cholesterol is important and necessary for human health, high levels of cholesterol in the blood have been linked to damage to arteries and cardiovascular disease.[3]

François Poulletier de la Salle first identified cholesterol in solid form in gallstones, in 1769. However, it was only in 1815 that chemistEugène Chevreul named the compound "cholesterine".[4]

Immune-system test may predict early death

June 4^th,2012 (health.com) A blood test that measures a marker of immune-system activity may help doctors identify people who are at risk of dying at an early age, a new study suggests.

Researchers at the Mayo Clinic measured levels of the immune-system molecules known as free light chains in 15,859 Minnesotans age 50 and up, and found that people whose levels were in the top 10% were four times more likely than the other study participants to die over the next 13 years.

Doctors commonly test for free light chains to diagnose and manage blood disorders and blood-related cancers, such as multiple myeloma or lymphoma. This study, which was published this week in the journal Mayo Clinic Proceedings, is the first to link high levels of free light chains with earlier death in a group of people without any known blood disorders.

Normally, light chains bind with so-called heavy chains to form infection-fighting antibodies. The presence of unattached "free" light chains has long been recognized as a signal that the immune system has gone awry, either due to inflammation, infection, or both, says lead author Vincent Rajkumar, M.D., a hematologist at the Mayo Clinic, in Rochester, Minnesota.

Health.com: How to live to 100

Elevated free light chain levels have been observed in people with kidney dysfunction, and are also seen in autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. Even after the researchers took into account the kidney function, age and gender of the participants, however, those with the highest free light chain levels were still twice as likely as their peers to die during the study.

Free light chain levels appeared to be equally effective at predicting death from many different causes, including cancer, heart disease, lung disease and diabetes.

It's not clear from the findings why, exactly, free light chains are linked to a higher risk of early death. High levels could be a marker of inflammation, which is associated with heart disease and numerous other health problems. But it's also possible they're a sign of normal, age-related deterioration of the immune system, the study notes.

Health.com: The cholesterol-inflammation connection

And it's still unclear how this test might be useful in generally healthy people. For now, Rajkumar and his colleagues urge doctors not to use the test as a screening instrument, as that will simply serve to alarm patients.

On the other hand, Rajkumar says, if doctors order the test for a specific reason and it comes back high, they may want to use that information to test for additional problems that could then be treated.

"It might be telling you something you might be missing," he says.

Dr. Neil Blumberg, a professor of pathology and laboratory medicine at the University of Rochester Medical Center, in Rochester, New York, says he's skeptical that free light chain tests are more powerful than existing tests that measure immune-system function or markers of inflammation, such as C-reactive protein.

Health.com: Do you really need that medical test?

The study authors didn't compare the free light chain test with these other tests, Blumberg points out, and it "may not measure anything that we don't get with white cell count or C-reactive protein or 15 other tests which are cheaper and easier to do."

Besides, Blumberg says, if a person's test results were to come back sky-high, the advice for preventing an early death would likely be what patients hear from their doctors already. "We really don't need any more tests to tell us we ought to lose weight, exercise, [and] eat a less pro-inflammatory diet," he says.

What are the stem cells?

Stem cells are cells found in most, if not all, multi-cellular organisms. They are characterized by the ability to renew themselves through mitotic cell division and differentiating into a diverse range of specialized cell types. Research in the stem cell field grew out of findings by Canadian scientists Ernest A. McCulloch and James E. Till in the 1960s.

The two broad types of mammalian stem cells are: embryonic stem cells that are isolated from the inner cell mass of blastocysts, and adult stem cells that are found in adult tissues. In a developing embryo, stem cells can differentiate into all of the specialized embryonic tissues. In adult organisms, stem cells and progenitor cells act as a repair system for the body, replenishing specialized cells, but also maintain the normal turnover of regenerative organs, such as blood, skin, or intestinal tissues.

Stem cells can now be grown and transformed into specialized cells with characteristics consistent with cells of various tissues such as muscles or nerves through cell culture. Highly plastic adult stem cells from a variety of sources, including umbilical cord blood and bone marrow, are routinely used in medical therapies. Embryonic cell lines and autologous embryonic stem cells generated through therapeutic cloning have also been proposed as promising candidates for future therapies.

Fast Foods Can Be Addictive

Scientist have previously proven links between drug addiction and fast-food addiction, but now there is a growing body of research that is finding out how junk food is hard wiring our brains for cravings.

The latest study, published March 28 in "Nature Neuroscience," likened the affects of high-fat, high-calorie fast food to those of cocaine or heroin, in animals at least.

The researchers showed that the pleasure-center in rats brains were overstimulated from the fast food similar to an addict's cocaine binge. Eventually, the pleasure centers became so overloaded that rats needed more and more food to feel normal, according to Paul H. Kenny, an associate professor of molecular therapeutics at the Scripps Research Institute.

Throughout the study, Kenny and his co-author studied three groups of lab rats for 40 days. The first group ate healthy food. The second ate a limited amount of junk food. The third group, however, was allowed to gorge on high-fat, high-calorie foods and became obese.

The startling side effect? The brains of the obese rats changed. "The body adapts remarkably well to change -- and that's the problem," Kenny said in a press release. "When the animal overstimulates its brain pleasure centers with highly palatable food, the systems adapt by decreasing their activity. However, now the animal requires constant stimulation from palatable food to avoid entering a persistent state of negative reward".

During the study, the rats lost complete control over the ability to regulate whether they were hungry, often eating despite electric shocks. When the obese rats were put on a healthy diet, they refused to eat, starving themselves for two weeks.

In another study, researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York City showed that feeding rats a diet high in saturated fat, calories and sugar -- which is the typical make-up for a fast-food menu item -- lowered the rats ability to respond to leptin, a hormone that helps regulate eating behavior by controlling how full one feels. As rats grew fatter, the amount of leptin in their bodies increased signaling that they were dangerously close to starvation. They continued to overeat and gain weight.

Those who yo-yo diet face similar problems that those going through withdrawal do, Boston University researchers proved last year. According to Pietro Cottone, an assistant professor in the Laboratory of Addictive Disorders at BU, dieters seek out foods to avoid the negative feelings that they experience if they are deprived of their favorite comfort foods.

"These findings confirm what we and many others have suspected," Kenny said, "that over-consumption of highly pleasurable food triggers addiction-like neuroadaptive responses in brain reward circuitries, driving the development of compulsive eating. Common mechanisms may therefore underlie obesity and drug addiction."

The Effects Of Information Technology in Our Daily Life

These days, the information technology industry is rapidly growing and changing. Along with the growth and change in information technology are the people who almost instantly adapt to change.

Computer technology has made our lives much easier and convenient. For example, our banking needs. Years ago, people had to manually archiving of important data of their customers, now you just use the computer to find this data. In just one click, instantly find the customer name, date of birth, address, email address, phone numbers and so on. As customers of these banks, which also can easily get a quick look at their account balances through logging into the bank's website, plus many people are able to borrow using the computer.

Due to the birth of computer technology, we now have credit cards or what others call plastic money, which are very useful especially when you have no cash on hand or when ordered a product over the Internet. It's amazing how computer technology has changed both the way we live. Today, buying products such as mobile phones, bags, household utensils and clothing, or even paying bills can be made effortlessly in the comfort of your own home.

With the computer use a lot of students, especially those with disabilities or serious illnesses can register unfortunate to different schools through home schooling. Students are still able to take their examination paper or check out their qualifications for use of the computer.

From my knowledge of computer technology has helped many businesses to better serve the community. But computers have not only helped us in the business industry but also has an effect on our communication systems. Long before the birth of computers, writing letters were the main source of communication, which would be a nuisance particularly to those who live in distant places, plus the phones are pretty expensive for most people prefer to write to their loved ones. And for that reason, people who are far from civilization really have difficulty communicating with others. Now we have email and live chat or even voice messages. Today we have video calls which would be able to see the person you're talking about. This would be great for people who have loved ones who are away from home. Contact with each other is now a piece of cake.

Computer technology has changed our lives for the better. Without him, we'd still be living in pre-historic times.

10 Things Men Hate About Women

1. She has a life- but it revolves around him!

Men can't stand a woman who doesn't continue to enjoy her own hobbies and take care of her own responsibilities while in a relationship. When he becomes her entire world, it puts too much pressure on him. He feels like he's responsible for her happiness and sense of being fulfilled, which isn't fair to either person.

2. She acts the wicked witch.

One of the biggest things men hate about women are the women who act rude, jealous, and bitchy towards other women. Criticizing other women's sense of style or fashion, among other things, is one of the top things men despise. Women who do this are unattractive and often do well at repelling men.

3. She can't fulfill herself.

When a woman doesn't love and care about herself enough to have a fulfilled life without a man in it, she becomes very clingy and needy when a new man does enter her life. It is important to know this one thing. You can't hope to have any man love you, if you don't love yourself first. It is impossible. Without self love and respect you can't and won't receive it from any boyfriends permanently. Men hate a woman who is clingy and needy all of the time.

4. He is her emotional support.

Tying into the above, men hate women who use him to lean on all the time. Yes, if something in your life goes wrong its okay to need someone for a little while. But on a regular basis your family and friends should be your 24/7 emotional support, not the boyfriend.

5. The compulsive shopper.

There is little men hate more about certain women than the ones who must shop all of the time. When they can only think, breathe, and do shopping, severe irritation begins to set in with the man in her life. To be a well rounded woman means to have a wide variety of active hobbies and responsibilities both.

6. She's too independent.

While independence is a quality men admire in a woman, taking it too far can cause more harm than good. Men need to be needed, to a point, to feel that they are a real part of your life. Men hate the overly independent woman because she accepts no compliments, acts indifferent, and makes no real space for a man in her life, even if there is a boyfriend in existence.

7. Jealousy, jealousy, jealousy.

Men hate women who are jealous and act crazy because of it. The girlfriend who asks, "Do you think that girl is pretty?" is certainly not appreciated for it. It puts the man in a very bad lose-lose situation. Women who become jealous of other women and act rude, cold, or distant towards them and others because of it are quite unattractive to men.

8. The High Maintenance Woman.

While at first this woman may be quite appealing by her dazzling looks and ultimate self confidence, all men will come to find this woman horrid. The high maintenance woman is not appreciated by men in the least. She is unable to act laid back, relaxed, and enjoy the company of other men and women without taking over the entire scene. She demands expensive gifts and pretty words in exchange for affection from her man, and seems fake and uncaring towards him.

9. The "femi-nazi".

If you look around you, you will find that nearly all men believe women are equals. In today's world, this is the norm. However, there are still a select few women known as "femi-nazis", women who love to bash men while calling it what it really isn't. Men love women who love men, in general. Women who take pride in themselves by belittling men and making generalizations about them are unattractive, rude, and not favored by men. Or most other women, for that matter.

10. The hysterical, emotional woman.

If there is one thing that men truly hate about women, its that many of them become emotional about absolutely everything. Be it a sappy movie, a broken nail, or the fact that they can't find their car keys, women go crazy over the little stuff often. No one is perfect, but a woman who is constantly in hysterics over every little problem or inconvenience will have no brownie points with the men she interacts with.
