Jessica Simpson’s measurements may have been the reason as to why she has dated so many high ranking guys during her career and she has always been very stunning.
The Simpson Desert is a large area of dry, red sandy plain and dunes in Northern Territory, South Australia and Queensland in central Australia.It is the fourth largest Australian desert, with an area of 176,500 km² (68,100 sq mi).
The desert is underlain by the Great Artesian Basin, one of the largest inland drainage areas in the world. Water from the basin rises to the surface at numerous natural springs, including Dalhousie Springs, and at bores drilled along stock routes, or during petroleum exploration. As a result of exploitation by such bores, the flow of water to springs has been steadily decreasing in recent years.
The Simpson Desert is an erg which contains the world's longest parallel sand dunes. These north-south oriented dunes are static, held in position by vegetation. They vary in height from 3 metres in the west to around 30 metres on the eastern side. The largest and most famous dune, Nappanerica, or more popularly Big Red (named by Simpson Desert traveller Dennis Bartell), is 40 metres in height.

Dr Robert Simpson, Mathematician :1687-1798. He is noted as the restorer of ancient Greek Geometers including Euclid.
It was while he was in England that Edmond Halley suggested to him that he might devote his considerable talents to the restoration of the work of the early Greek geometers, such as Euclid and Apollonius of Perga. These are works that only survive in abbreviated accounts given by later mathematicians such as Pappus of Alexandria. He first studied Euclid's so-called porisms. Playfair's 1792 definition of porism is
"a proposition affirming the possibility of finding such conditions as will render a certain problem indeterminate, or capable of innumerable solutions."
Simson's work on Euclid's porisms was published in 1723 in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, and his restoration of the Loci Plani of Apollonius appeared in 1749. Further work of his on porisms and other subjects including logarithms was published posthumously in 1776 by Lord Stanhope at his own expense.
In 1753 Simson noted that, as the Fibonacci numbers increased in magnitude, the ratio between adjacent numbers approached the golden ratio, whose value is
(1 + 5)/2 = 1.6180 . . . .
situated at the bottom of Chapel street just under the Church of Our Lady and St Nicholas.
William Simpson died in 1883. after a varied career and having had varied successes supplying beverages and food on the floating landing stage. He lived for many years on the floating landing stage. The news paper obituary into his life and death is fascinating in the detail.
Excerpt: “Amid tokens of universal sympathy the mortal remains of William Shaw SIMPSON, who died suddenly at his residence the Princes Landing-stage, on Saturday morning, were consigned to their final resting place in Smithdown Lane cemetery yesterday afternoon. The condition of the corpse was such owing to its peculiar situation and disturbances by the continuous oscillation of the stage, which accelerated decompostion, that an early funeral was considered advisable.” Newspaper report . The drinking fountain was erected in his honour some two years later.
