Breast Augmentation: It’s Easier the Second Time Around

Times change. And so may your breast size – especially if you’ve been pregnant or had a significant change in your weight.

Redheads come in clusters, according to Austrian biologist Paul Kammerer, who studied coincidences when he wasn’t studying salamanders.

He observed that men with red hair tended to pass by in clusters – often in threes – proof of his “law of series.”
