Interesting Fact - Morality

According to results from Professor Roger Steare's “Moral DNA test,” women are more moral than men. ( Professor Steare developed the test four years ago to measure changes in people’s value systems and 60,000 volunteers across 200 countries have already taken the quiz. There are six personality types: philosopher; judge; angel; teacher; enforcer; or guardian. The results to date show that females are more likely to make decisions based on how they impact on others.  You can take the test yourself  at www.moraldna.org . ) Source

Interesting Fact # 563 - Secure Jobs

Being a judge in the UK, must be the most secure job there is. In the UK only two judges have been fired since the Act of Settlement in 1701, in the settlement only the Lord Chancellor had the power to sack them. (The first dismissal was in in 1830, for stealing court funds. The second was in 1983, for smuggling whiskey and cigarettes into Britain on a private yacht. Now that's more like it: cigarettes and whiskey and wild, wild women, they'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane.)
