Still no answer.

I see some weird things but this takes the biscuit. A vulnerability in the Companies House website, that let anyone view the private dashboard of any one of the five million registered companies, see directors' personal details. And modify them.

Kind woman gave them food and affection every day. She passed away, but the dogs kept waiting for her at the door for weeks. Today, her children continue her work..🐕🐾🥺🙏❤️

We really don’t give enough credit to Tasha’s. They opened their first cafe in 2005 in Johannesburg then they were bought out by Famous Brands & then the original owner bought her stores back. They have expanded into 4 countries. Arada, a leading UAE developer, has partnered now with Tashas Group in a AED100 million joint venture to bring high-end dining experiences to the GCC. The collaboration will launch at least 10 outlets over the next two years, including tashas and the new Café Sofi, with the first opening at Aljada, Sharjah in December 2025. This from an owner that had no qualifications & was working as the manger at the nino’s in Bedfordview

I’ve shared a lot of Black Skimmer videos, and people always ask: “Do they ever catch anything?” This video answers that question beautifully. And if you watch until the end… you’ll see that sometimes, it’s catch and release.

Eagle + Rain + Fog = One Insane Wildlife Moment Bone chilling wind, ice cold rain and a thin veil of fog didn’t seem to stop this majestic eagle. It slammed on the brakes and came sliding in, pantaloons swaying in the breeze, talons curled into tiny fists, eager to wrap themselves around a helpless hake. I love how rain transforms everything in a video or photograph, the look, the mood, the energy. Watching eagles come careening out of the sky while it’s raining, one of my absolute favorite things in the world.

The answer is you would want to go to Dentist A, because a dentist can’t work in his own teeth, he himself, needs to go to a dentist. Those that chose Dentist B were affected by their bias. In this scenario, the bias at play is the "halo effect," where we tend to make judgments about someone's overall abilities or character based on a single positive trait. Dentist B's perfect teeth and beautiful smile might lead you to subconsciously assume that they are a better or more skilled dentist, even though their appearance may not necessarily reflect their professional competence. Thanks for taking part in the survey & and have a lovely Saturday.
