Provo ranked the most ‘flirty’ city in U.S.
A new study by Flirt.com shows that Provo may not only be one of the most conservative cities in the United States, but also the most “flirty.” Flirt.com sought to discover whether liberals or conservatives flirt more by tracking activity on dating websites. The website analyzed the top 25 liberal cities and the top 25 conservative cities in the country with a population of at least 100,000, based on the Bay Area Center for Voting Research, and gave each a score of up to 100 on a “flirtation index.” While more politically liberal cities were expected to be more active on dating websites, instead they discovered that the more conservative a city is, the more flirtatious it is.

3 Small Acts that Make a Difference
My Mom hasn’t saved me from a burning building, though she may have paid my rent. But that is not why I love my Mom. I love her because of the little things she has always done for me. When I worked in the yard, there was almost always a cold glass of water or milk and cookies waiting for me when I went inside for a break. When I was doing the dishes, she would come up behind me, bump me aside and tell me to go read a certain article while she did my dishes for me.
