13 AMAZING FACTS ABOUT YOUR LIPS, THAT YOU DIDN’T KNOW ABOUT

If you think you know everything about human lips, you are wrong. Just take a look at our list of 13 fascinating facts about lips:
1. Your lips are unique. Many animal species have lips, of course. But only human lips have such a distinct border between the pinkish, reddish parts and the surrounding skin, according to LiveScience. Scientists call this the “vermilion border.”
2. Your lips can help you choose a mate. It’s hard to kiss without lips, and some scientists believe that kissing plays a key role in mate selection. It seems that locking lips brings potential mates close enough that they exchange biological information–via sniffing another’s pheromones. Women are believed to prefer the scent of men whose immune systems differ from their own–and pheromones may be a key to this determination.
3. That fleshy bump in the middle of your upper lip has a name. In fact, that fleshy bump has a few names, including procheilion, labial tubercle, or tuberculum labii superioris.
4. Your lips can say

Çhris Brown gets 1,000 extra hours community service

Singer Chris Brown was ordered to perform 1,000 hours community service Friday after his probation stemming from the 2009 assault on his then girlfriend Rihanna was restored, officials said. The 24-year-old R&B star’s probation was revoked last month after he was hit with misdemeanor charges following a minor traffic accident. Those charges were dismissed on Thursday and on Friday Los Angeles Superior Court judge James Brandlin restored his probation. The reinstated probation order was conditional on Brown completing 1,000 hours of community labor, in addition to the 180 days he had already been ordered to perform. Judge Brandlin said Brown would be put to work in one of four programs — highway clean-up, beach clean-up, graffiti removal or a program run by the probation department. The order came after prosecutors questioned whether Brown had in fact completed the initial 180-day period of community service he was sentenced to. They cited “significant discrepancies” in his work record. However the singer’s lawyer contested the allegation, saying prosecutors “chose to ignore the actual evidence in an effort to find someone, anyone, to say he was not working.” In 2009 Brown pleaded guilty to assaulting fellow singer Rihanna earlier that year on the eve of the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles.

Carmelo Flores Laura, May Be Oldest Living Person EVER

If Bolivia's public records are correct, Carmelo
Flores Laura is the oldest living person ever documented.
They say he turned 123 a month ago.The native Aymara lives in a straw-
roofed dirt-floor hut in an isolated hamlet near Lake Titicaca at 13,100
feet (4,000 meters), is illiterate, speaks no Spanish and has no teeth.
He walks without a cane and doesn't wear glasses. And though he speaks
Aymara with a firm voice, one must talk into his ear to be heard.
"I see a bit dimly. I had good vision before. But I saw you coming," he
tells Associated Press journalists who visit after a local TV report touts
him as the world's oldest person.
Hobbling down a dirt path, Flores greets them with a raised arm, smiles
and sits down on a rock. His gums bulge with coca leaf, a mild stimulant
that staves off hunger. Like most Bolivian

20 Things 20-Year-Olds Don't Get..by Jason Nazar

I started Docstoc in my 20’s, made the cover of one of those cliché “20 Under 20” lists, and today I employ an amazing group of 20-somethings. Call me a curmudgeon, but at 34, how I came up seems so different from what this millennial generation expects. I made a lot of mistakes along the way, and I see this generation making their own. In response, here are my 20 Things 20-Year-Olds Don’t Get.

Time is Not a Limitless Commodity – I so rarely find young professionals that have a heightened sense of urgency to get to the next level.  In our 20s we think we have all the time in the world to A) figure it out and B) get what we want.  Time is the only treasure we start off with in abundance, and can never get back. Make the most of the opportunities you have today, because there will be a time when you have no more of it.

You’re Talented, But Talent is Overrated - Congratulations, you may be the most capable, creative, knowledgeable & multi-tasking generation yet. As my father says, “I’ll Give You a Sh-t Medal.”  Unrefined raw materials (no matter how valuable) are simply wasted potential.  There’s no prize for talent, just results.  Even the most seemingly gifted folks methodically and painfully worked their way to success.  (Tip: read “ Talent is Overrated ”) We’re More Productive in the Morning – During my first 2 years at Docstoc (while I was still in my 20’s) I prided myself on staying at the office until 3am on a regular basis.  I thought I got so much work done in those hours long after everyone else was gone. But in retrospect I got more menial, task-based items done, not

Comedian De-don donates kidney to save brothers life

Popular comedian and OAP Iruvwe Okeremute aka De-Don donated his kidney to his ailing
elder brother, Morris Okeremute, who urgently needed a transplant to survive. De Don traveled
to India a few weeks back to donate his kidney. He explains why he did it in a new interview
"My brother started having this kidney problem in 2009. My elder sister donated her kidney
to him at the time but unfortunately in January 2013 the kidney failed because he didn't
take his drugs for some weeks because the drugs he ordered from India arrived late. Se
when he needed another kidney it was natural that I donate to him. It wasn't difficult
making up my mind because I needed to save his life. I equally had a proper awareness
about kidney donation and also the fact that nothing happened to my sister who had
donated before. She even had another baby boy after the donation.

How to Spot (and Avoid) Mr. Wrong

 First, the basics: What exactly is a crazy-making man, a.k.a. Mr. Wrong? This is the guy who manages to keep you constantly off-balance and confused about what is really going on in your relationship. Perhaps he means well, but his attitudes and behaviors inevitably leave you running faster and faster just to stay in place. As Julia Cameron wrote in The Artist’s Way, “Crazy-makers are those personalities that create storm centers … You know the type: charismatic but out of control, long on problems and short on solutions.” Assuming you’ve been around the dating block more than once, you have probably already come face-to-face with this particular species. If you were lucky, you managed to back away and go about your business unharmed. If not, that means he’s still hanging around — and the following information will empower you to see the situation clearly and take steps to deal with it. If you are really lucky, you’ve avoided the crazy-making type altogether; but don’t let that fool you. He’s out there, and it’s wise to know him when you see him. Here are five characteristic clues that can help:

Cameroonian president orders all pentcoastal churches closed!!

IS HE ANTICHRIST?? Cameroon's President Orders Pentecostal Churches
Closed
Yaounde, Cameroon (CNN) -- Cameroon's President Paul Biya has ordered the closure of
nearly 100 Christian churches in key cities, citing criminal practices organized by Pentecostal
pastors that threaten the security of the West African nation.
But Pentecostal pastors said the move is evidence of Biya's insecurity about the churches'
criticism of the government.
Biya is using the military to permanently shut down all Pentecostal church denominations in
the nation's capital, Yaounde, and the North West Regional capital, Bamenda, which have the
largest Christian populations in Cameroon.
More than 50 churches have now been closed, with the government targeting nearly 100 in
eight other regions.
"We will get rid of all the so-called Christian Pentecostal pastors who misuse the name of
Jesus Christ to fake miracles

And Lionel Messi provides an answer to the question: what do you give the man who has

Talk about a busy schedule, where does Mario Balotelli find the energy to get dressed in the
morning? Do flights of angels guide him to his vest?
We'll leave that to the theologians, but Balotelli was certainly suited and booted when he
