Rose Tyler - I love Rose Tyler, without her I would not have continued watching the first series of DW. She made me love the Doctor, and she was so brave in the face of everything. There is so much courage, compassion and love in her. Rose Tyler who came back despite being sent away. My heart broke for her at the end of season 2.
Martha Jones - Martha Jones, Saviour of Humanity. Honestly, what else can you say? Martha Jones is a doctor, who wants to save people, and she does, she saves the whole world. She fell in love with the Doctor and she knew when it was time to leave, because she wasn’t going to be that girl. Martha Jones who travelled throughout the world; alone, changing people and giving them hope. Martha Jones, Saviour of Humanity.
Donna Noble - Oh gods, how I love seeing a companion who knows herself. Donna Noble, who is not in love with the Doctor, who is in love with wanting to see the fantastic, to see the universe, who is compassionate enough in wanting to save the few if not the world. Donna Noble, I hope I can be like you when I grow up.
In conclusion; DW is a show filled with awesome women.
One thing though; I’m still confused about the Rose hate, I don’t understand it. Please explain in a coherent and logical manner. If your logic is not Earth logic I may ignore.
Australia now world's fattest nation.
This really does make you think. I'm not obese, though I'm definitely on the heavy side for my height, and at one point my weight crossed into the field of obesity, except I was losing lengths from my waist. The power of exercise; look slimmer and feel fitter without losing weight, however, since I stopped jogging and doing weights I've lost a bit of my muscle tone, and while I have lost weight I just feel more flabby than healthy. I think it may be time to pick up exercising again, or at the very least start doing weights again.
The only thing I’m really worried about is that this report will be used as an excuse for the marketing industry to push harder for the anorexic look. Or that teenager who suffers from eating disorders decides to take this as a validation of not eating. After all, 1 in 5 female students are estimated to be bulimic with anorexia nervosa the third most common chronic illness for teenage girls in Australia.
They need to release the report for this to the public. The ratio of men and women, by what percentile are they overweight by, and there are a million and one thing that needs to be released except they are hand waving it. Grrr.

Also, a tiny quote;
I am the Bad Wolf. I create myself. I take the words. I scatter them ... in time, and space. A message to lead myself here.
