Want A Baby Girl

Scientists have done some research into how mum's can have a baby girl. Apparently cutting out salt and going on a diet of beans and hard cheese gives you a higher chance of having a baby girl.

So if your planning on having a girl, cut out foods containing sodium like Olives, Bacon, Salami, Smoked Salmon, Potato's, Meats, Bread and pastries. Try eating foods that are rich in Calcium and Magnesium like Yoghurt, Spinnich, Hard Cheese, Rhubarb, Tofu, Almonds, Oatmeal, Brocolli, Oranges, Brazil and Cashew Nuts, Whole Wheat cereals and Figs.

Almost 80 percent of females who stuck to the diet apparently had a girl. So if you want a girl, go through these steps and you never know.

Magpies What To Do When One Swoops

It's Spring and Magpies are nesting again, which means that they could swoop you. Here's some tips on what to do thanks to the Environment Climate Change And Water department.

For most of the year magpies are not aggressive, but for four to six weeks during nesting they will often defend their territory vigorously. People walking past may be seen as 'invaders' of the territory, prompting the magpies to fly low and fast over the person clacking their bills as they pass overhead.

The experience of a magpie attack can be quite alarming, but it is usually only a warning. Only occasionally will a bird actually strike the intruder on the head with its beak or claws. If this unusual behaviour persists, there are ways of reducing the risk of physical injury to humans.

If a magpie swoops at you:

  • Walk quickly and carefully away from the area, and avoid walking there when magpies are swooping.
  • Make a temporary sign to warn other people.
  • Magpies are less likely to swoop if you look at them. Try to keep an eye on the magpie, at the same time walking carefully away. Alternatively, you can draw or sew a pair of eyes onto the back of a hat, and wear it when walking through the area. You can also try wearing your sunglasses on the back of your head.
  • Wear a bicycle or skateboard helmet. Any sort of hat, even a hat made from an ice cream container or cardboard box, will help protect you.
  • Carry an open umbrella, or a stick or small branch, above your head but do not swing it at the magpie, as this will only provoke it to attack.
  • If you are riding a bicycle when the magpie swoops, get off the bicycle and wheel it quickly through the area. Your bicycle helmet will protect your head, and you can attach a tall red safety flag to your bicycle or hold a stick or branch as a deterrent.
Remember Magpies are protected throughout NSW, and it is against the law to kill the birds, collect their eggs, or harm their young. If you feel a magpie is a serious menace, it should be reported to the police or the nearest office of the NPWS.
