What's so great about water? | * It's very common in the universe * It's a very good solvent (which helps facilitate chemical reactions) * It is liquid at a fairly wide range of temperatures * It has a neutral pH * Its solid phase is less dense than its liquid phase (ice floats) which helps circulation of the oceans and allows bodies of water to freeze over and remain liquid underneath rather than freezing solid from the bottom up, killing everything inside There may be a few other things, but this is what I can come up with off the top of my head. These things basically make it well suited for living things to use as a medium for their biological processes. |

Asda has stopped selling Easter eggs on its website due to high demand .
Several Easter egg brands are sold out at Tesco - country's biggest retailer . | By . Leon Watson . and Emma Glanfield . Shoppers desperate to snap up a bargain have cleared supermarket shelves of Easter eggs after price wars between the leading chains resulted in some eggs being better value for money than a chocolate bar. With just three days to go until Easter, the giant price war has resulted in many supermarkets having already sold out of several products. Asda has been forced to stop selling Easter eggs on its website altogether due to high demand and Tesco has sold out of several chocolate eggs after shoppers took advantage of slashed prices. Big-brand Easter eggs are so heavily discounted they work out far cheaper price per 100g than buying single bars of chocolate. On a pound-to-weight basis, some Easter eggs, including Cadbury Dairy Milk and Wispa, are working out better value for money . Among the eggs running low are products made by Cadbury – the country's biggest chocolate maker – and Nestle, as well as some Lindt and Mars eggs. A large proportion of the eggs on sale in Tesco, Asda and Sainsbury's this year have been discounted or on a promotion. The offers have resulted in many Easter eggs being much better value for money on a pound-to-weight basis than a simple chocolate bar in many stores. In Asda, shoppers can buy a Dairy Milk buttons . egg (162g) for £1 or a pouch of the same chocolate buttons (72g), which . provide less than half the amount of chocolate, for the same price.

Shortage: Asda has been forced to stop selling Easter eggs on its website altogether due to high demand and Tesco has sold out of several chocolate eggs after shoppers took advantage of slashed prices . Last year the supermarket industry was forced to apologise to customers after many were left searching for chocolate eggs on the Saturday before Easter. Tesco said there would be ‘plenty’ of eggs this year, despite the fact several have already sold out on its website. A spokesman said: 'You won't go in on Good Friday and find only one egg on the shelves. There will be plenty of eggs. 'It's possible we have run out of some of the ranges, in some of the sizes. Quite obviously we are close to Easter and that tends to happen.' Asda has already stopped selling any . Easter eggs on its website, saying it was prioritising customers who had . already placed orders. Sell-out: Last year the supermarket industry was forced to apologise to customers after many were left searching for chocolate eggs on the Saturday before Easter . A spokesman said: 'To ensure no family goes without their eggs, we have put a hold on the ordering of some products online so we can focus on fulfilling our current orders before the weekend.' Bryan Roberts, analyst at Kantar Retrail, said it was ‘a bit self-defeating’ that Easter eggs have been so heavily-discounted in some supermarkets. He told The Telegraph: ‘Basic economics would suggest that when demand is at its highest you could chose to price your products as you wish. 'But supermarkets use Easter eggs discounts as something they can talk about in TV adverts, and as a way of driving traffic. It's because retailers and suppliers are over-obsessed with market share.’ |

George Jacobs, 87, died in Palm Springs Saturday night .
Between 1953 and 1968, he worked as Frank Sinatra's valet .
He lived with the star and traveled the world with him .
Sinatra fired Jacobs after a gossip columnist wrote that he was dancing with Sinatra's soon-to-be ex-wife Mia Farrow .
Jacobs wrote a memoir about those years called Mr S: My Life with Frank Sinatra .
He was married and divorced three times and had eight children . | By . Alex Greig . and Associated Press . PUBLISHED: . 01:56 EST, 30 December 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 12:31 EST, 30 December 2013 . George Jacobs, who was Frank Sinatra's valet and confidant for 15 years, has died. Jacobs' son, Snake Jagger, says his father died of natural causes in Palm Springs Saturday night. He was 87. Jacobs was working for Hollywood dealmaker Irving 'Swifty' Lazar in 1953 when Sinatra hired and entrusted him with his personal affairs. Mr S: Jacobs (pictured with Sinatra) was the valet and confidant of Frank Sinatra between 1953 and 1968 . Jacobs' 2003 book, 'Mr. S: My Life with Frank Sinatra,' gives an insider's look into the crooner's life, his women and his dealings with the Kennedys, the Rat Pack and the mob. Jacobs said he was fired after the gossip columns reported about him dancing at a nightclub with Sinatra's then-wife, Mia Farrow. His book begins, 'Summer 1968. The only man in America who was less interested than me in sleeping with Mia Farrow was her husband and my boss, Frank Sinatra.' Rumors of an affair with Farrow caused Sinatra to cut Jacobs off after 15 years in his service. It's a fascinating insight into the . life and times of the Chairman of the Board that dishes on Sinatra's . first wife Ava Gardner, who had a drinking problem, JFK whose ambition . was 'to f*** every actress in Hollywood,' Marilyn Monroe's lack of . personal hygiene, and of course, Ol' Blue Eyes himself. When . a gossip columnist reported that Jacobs was dancing with Sinatra's . much-younger wife Mia Farrow - whom he was in the process of divorcing - . Sinatra's wrath was quick and decisive. He fired Jacobs within 24 hours. It would be 10 years before Jacobs clapped eyes on his former boss again. The New York Times interviewed Jacobs when his memoir was released in 2003. Of . the meeting, he said, 'It's hard to talk about it. I took one look at . him and broke down into tears. I couldn't stop crying. Mr. S put his arm . around me. "Forget about it, kid," he said. "It isn't so bad."' And . although Jacobs kept crying, Sinatra left. Last dance: Sinatra and Mia Farrow (seen here on their wedding day) were divorcing when George Jacobs danced with her and was fired by Sinatra . 'It was such a shock, it tore me apart. You have to understand, I spent 24 hours a day with him. I washed his underwear by hand on the road, I carried everything to take care of him, and it ended in such a miserable way. The way it was supposed to be, I guess. That was his way,' he said. Two of his marriages ended while he worked 24 hours a day for Sinatra. After Sinatra fired him, Jacobs worked for Steve McQueen, George Hamilton and Bill Cosby, but he never lived in with any employer again. He took off for Europe and traveled for three years, then returned and got into show business himself, briefly, appearing on The Dating Game and The Gong Show. Jacobs eventually took up carpentry and moved to Van Nys, California. He married and divorced a third time and has eight children, three of whom precede him in death. When Sinatra died in 1998, Jacobs was cut from the funeral guest list by his third wife Barbara Marx. Despite Ol' Blue Eyes' temper tantrums, Jacobs wrote that his boss treated him well. |

Among the beneficiaries is a charity named after his first wife .
Susan Thompson Buffett was a campaigner for women's rights .
The Planned Parenthood Foundation and NARAL also benefited .
Buffett has never spoken publicly about his views on abortion . | By . Leon Watson . America's second richest man has shown his support for abortion by donating more than $1.2 billion to pro-choice groups in the last decade, it was claimed today. Billionaire Warren Buffett, the so-called 'Sage of Omaha', has pumped cash into a series of trusts and charities offering family planning advice and care between 2001 and 2012. Planned Parenthood, NARAL and Buffett's own charity, The Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation, which is named after his first wife who campaigned for women's rights, were among the beneficiaries. Scroll down for video . Berkshire Hathaway chairman and CEO Warren Buffett gestures during an interview on the Fox Business Network in Omaha, Nebraska . Buffett has given $289,811,421 to Planned Parenthood alone since 2001, Fox News reported . According to its webside, Planned Parenthood promotes a 'commonsense approach to women’s health and well-being, based . on respect for each individual’s right to make informed, independent . decisions about health, sex, and family planning'. In 2006, two years after his wife died, Buffett gave the foundation that bears her name a substantial gift. He said that he expected the gift to increase the foundation's annual expenditures by $150 million. In fact, the New York Times reported, total giving by the foundation, where two of the Buffetts' children sit on the board, increased from $202 million in 2007 to $347 million in 2008. Tax returns show that most of the foundation's spending goes to abortion and contraception advocacy and research. According to Access Philanthropy, a research institute that focuses on the giving preferences of foundations and corporate donors, family planning is one of the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation's main purposes. Warren Buffett, left, has shown his support for abortion by donating more than $1.2 billion to pro-choice groups . The foundation's non-profit 990 tax form shows that in 2008, Planned Parenthood and its affiliates in the U.S. received about $45 million; the international arm of the organization got about $8 million. There is no line item for the Ryan program or the Family Planning Fellowship. But the foundation paid out around $50 million to universities with one or both of the programs. Mr Buffett has never spoken publicly about his views on abortion. But in the 1990s, according to The Wall Street Journal, the Buffett Foundation helped finance the research and development of the pills that induce abortion. The foundation also helped finance a lawsuit to overturn the ban on so-called partial-birth abortion in Nebraska, Buffett's home state and the headquarters of his company, Berkshire Hathaway. In Thompson Buffett's only television interview, which was broadcast after her death, she told Charlie Rose: 'Warren feels that women all over the world get shortchanged. That's why he's so pro-choice.' According to sexual health study group the Guttmacher Institute, 1.06 million abortions were performed in 2011, down from 1.21 million abortions in 2008, a decline of 13 per cent. Research also shows the number of U.S. abortion providers declined four per cent between 2008 (1,793) and 2011 (1,720). The number of clinics providing abortion services also declined 1 per cent, from 851 to 839. Overall, 89 per cent of all U.S. counties lacked an abortion clinic in 2011, while only 38 per cent of women live in those counties. |

Claimed people abused as youngsters who then become paedophiles 'not criminally responsible'
Says paedophilia 'is an illness, not a criminal condition'
Says those people do not deserve to be punished because they are damaged .
Pope Francis said that he wants a 'church for the poor' | A South African cardinal who helped elect Pope Francis has described paedophilia as a psychological illness and not 'a criminal condition'. The Catholic Archbishop of Durban, Wilfrid Fox Napier, told BBC Radio 5 live that people who were abused as children and became paedophiles were not criminally responsible for their actions in the same way as somebody 'who chooses to do something like that'. Cardinal Napier, who was among the 115 cardinals in the conclave at the Vatican that elected Pope Francis earlier this week, called paedophilia a 'psychological disorder. And just three days into the new role, the pope and the Catholic Church are now faced with fresh child abuse controversy after the cardinal's remarks. Newly elected Pope Francis (right), is given a yellow Catholic faith bracelet by Cardinal Wilfrid Fox Napier of South Africa following a meeting at the Vatican (left). The South African cardinal claimed that paedophilia is an 'illness' He said: 'What do you do with disorders? You have got to try and put them right. 'If I as a normal being choose to break the law knowing that I am breaking the law, then I think I need to be punished... 'From my experience paedophilia is actually an illness, it is not a criminal condition, it is an illness.' The cardinal spoke of two priests he knew who were abused as children and went on to become paedophiles. He told the BBC: 'Don't tell me that those people are criminally responsible like somebody who chooses to do something like that. The cardinal said that in his experience, paedophilia is an illness, not a criminal condition, and the people who have been abused as children and then molest others are 'damaged' Pope Francis explained to journalists in an audience today that he wants a 'church for the poor' 'I don't think you can really take the position and say that person deserves to be punished when he was himself damaged.' Barbara Dorries, from the US-based Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests was abused as a child by a priest. She told the BBC: 'If it is a disease that's fine, but it's also a crime and crimes are punished, criminals are held accountable for what they did and what they do. 'The bishops and the cardinals have gone to great lengths to cover these crimes to enable the predators to move on, to not be arrested, to keep the secrets within the church.' The cardinal has made controversial . statements before, maintaining that people should abstain from sex . rather than use contraceptives, to stop spreading HIV. He took the official Roman Catholic . Stance and argued that government programmes to distribute condoms were . ineffectual in stemming the spread of HIV. Instead, he supported programmes based around abstinence. He was one of the cardinal electors who participated in the 2005 papal conclave that selected Pope Benedict XVI. The cardinal is a prolific Twitter user, and has kept his followers up to date about the conclave and his meetings with the newly ordained pope. He wrote: 'Last 2 days quite unreal. Mass with Pope Francis in Santa Martha Chapel, Breakfast, Lunch & Supper with him sitting at a different table! 'What's it like in Conclave? Apart from NO radio or TV, NO newspapers or phone calls, Emails or SMS's, NO Twitter or Facebook, all is normal.' 'We chat, discuss, get to know each . other. Meals are special times. We relax, share stories about our home . Churches, dream about the future!' His remarks came on the day that the pope held a private meeting with journalists. Pope Francis has said he wants 'a poor Church, for the poor' following his election as head of the Catholic Church. In . a meeting with journalists, the Pontiff said he was inspired to choose . the name Francis after the 12th Century saint Francis of Assisi. |
