One-year old child found Pregnant in Saudi Arabia

Doctors say its a unique case for this World!!!

Medical Science Report says: When the mother of this child was pregnant, she had 2 fetuses inside her, but one of the fetus grew inside the other, this is why this girl was born with the other foetus inside her womb.

Is this really possible? Check out the Xray films and ultrasound of the baby!

How to recognize a STRoke

Stroke or cerebrovascular accident (CVA) is the clinical designation for a rapidly developing loss of brain function due to a disturbance in the blood vessels supplying blood to the brain.” It is caused by the lack of oxygen supplied to the brain, causing the brain tissues to die. It may be due to ischemia or the lack of blood supply caused by thrombosis or embolism, or due to a hemorrhage. When a severe blood clot, for example, blocks the passage way of the blood to the brain, it may cause stroke.

It is an emergency scenario and every second count in quickly and accurately detecting a stroke. In order to save a patient or a loved one’s life, we must know the early signs of stroke and immediately bring it to the knowledge of doctors.

To recognize a stroke, just remember the first three letters of the word and ask the individual to…
S * SMILE.
T * TALK and SPEAK A SAMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently)
R * RAISE BOTH ARMS.

A new way of detecting if a patient is suffering stroke is to ask him/her to stick out his/her tongue. If it is crooked or goes to one side or the other, then it is a sign of stroke. In cases of stroke, life is hanging by a thread so protect your family and friends by knowing ahead.

Sex Myths

I have read recently in Men’s Health a very interesting article that I want to share here…it’s about the top 10 myths on sex life, and whether they are true or not.. Here it is…

1) Uncircumcised men have better sex.
FALSE: Researchers studied men who underwent circumcision as adults had no significant difference in sex drive, erection, ejaculation, or overall satisfaction. So it doesn’t matter whether you’re cut or not…it’s the sex that counts!

2) Some women can orgasm through nipple stimulation alone.
TRUE: Every woman is different, but one study shows that the upper portion of the breast, from 10 o’clock to 2 o’clock, is ultrasensitive enough to provide orgasm. So girls…be extra careful in bumping those boobies….might have some spontaneous orgasm…watch Grey’s anatomy to see how bad that illness could be.

3) The average erection measures 8 inches.
FALSE: In a recent study, 63 percent of men complained of having inferior hardware — but none of them was smaller than normal! Normal is between 5.5 and 6.2 inches long when erect and 4.7 to 5.1 inches around. So don’t worry too much…you’re fairly within the limit.

4) Oysters make you horny.
FALSE: Its YOU who make you horny. “There is no scientific evidence that oysters increase libido,” says Jon L. Pryor, M.D., a professor of urologic surgery at the University of Minnesota. So don’t blame it to the oysters ok!

5) Green M&Ms make you horny.
FALSE: It’s the green in you that makes you horny and not the M&Ms ok…

6) Semen is low-carb.
FALSE: Semen is mostly fruit sugar (fructose) and enzymes — not low-carb. So don’t even think of using it for your diet…

7) Cutting out broccoli will make your semen taste better.
TRUE: Semen is naturally bitter, and eating broccoli and drinking coffee can make it worse. A ray of hope for the Oral Sex Diet!

8 ) Men think about sex every 7 seconds.
FALSE: The truth is that only 23 percent of men claim to fantasize frequently. But maybe the rest are just too distracted to check the clock.

9) Some women can orgasm just from working out.
TRUE: A lot of women require a buildup of tension in their legs to achieve orgasm, so when they combine this with exercise (like a hanging knee rais) and the release of endorphins and dopamine, it can cause the clitoral stimulation that is needed. Oopss…take care when going to the gym…you wouldn’t want to do it there…unless…hmm…

10) Having sex in water (swimming pool, hot tub, shower) will kill sperm.
TRUE:
Though a hot tub can overheat your testicles and kill sperm, there should be plenty left for the egg hunt. Some of your swimmers may die, but it isn’t an effective method of birth control.

11th Commandment…Don’t be ugly!

Fat becomes slim and sexy…Ugly becomes cute and pretty… For the generation today…it is a sin to be ugly…for one has almost all means to enhance one’s self and become good looking each time. There is face lift, boobs lift/enhancer, tummy tacked, botox, etc…if you can’t afford such…there’s always the alternative ways like whitening soaps, facial creams, lotions, etc….or there are gyms, sports, etc. There’s no excuse for being ugly and fat these days but laziness and lack of love for one’s self…so be the beautiful you each time…

May it be artificial, alternative, traditional, or whatsoever means, the important thing is you are always radiant inside out…^_^

Reduce aging with a Shih Tzu by your side

The world has grown to be too complicated, the environment is polluted, and days pass by so fast and the only natural and logical consequence of all these is fast aging…Stress makes aging faster! One way to counter this is by having a playmate or rather a pet by your side that would help you enjoy every bit of life.

With a pet by your side, the world seems to slow back to its natural pace. You get to enjoy little events such as a simple bark, a kiss from your pet, and the time you spend to play with each other. Especially when special moments come your way and you two share this special moment together.

A little time out of the real world, with your pet, is truly to be cherished. It feels great to lay down at night with my shih tzu by my side. I can feel her warmth and she would keep so close to me, as if hugging me. I can’t explain much the soothing feeling of having a pet. But one thing is for sure…Sexy, my shih tzu, has been an important part of my life and I wouldn’t exchange for anything in the world the time we spent together. It’s as if I had a partner, a parent, a baby, a friend, all in one. ^_^

Does size really matter?

Ever heard of the “small penis syndrome”? If you are now anxious as to knowing what it is, then you may already have it.

Small penis syndrome is a psychological condition where a man thinks that his wood is too small, when for a fact he’s just at par with the rest of mankind.

This is usually brought about by the wrong publicity or messages brought to people by some advertisements. Also, pornography or other materials that bring to question the matter of size bring about this insecurity to other men.

But, does size really matter? NO, it does not!

According to a study conducted by British researchers for the BJU International, 63% of men complained of having a smaller penis — but none of them was really smaller than the normal. (FYI: The normal size of a penis is between 5.5 to 6.2 inches long when erect and 4.7 to 5.1 inches around, don’t even think measuring under your desk now!!!)

Girls agree to the fact that size has nothing to do with orgasm. It even prevents one sometimes. What is important is for the man to know his partner and know how to satisfy her needs in bed. Better thrusting, right position, enough foreplay, and many others may be the key to a satisfying night and the penis size is far behind the line, if not at all there, of what can make a great night.

So guys…don’t be intimidated with the “Big Cock” porn that you watched. What matters most is the intimacy you and your girl has. It isn’t just about sex, it is knowing your partner more and accepting each other for who you are.

Viagra to aid on jet lag

ViagraViagra (scientifically known as “sildenafil citrate”) is no longer a mere blue pills for male impotence. It has recently been found that viagra pills can help recover from jet lag up to 50 percent faster.

Pfizer, the world’s largest drug maker, is marketing Viagra to treat erectile dysfunction, as approved by the US Food and Drug Administration in 1998. However, recent research has found Viagra to also help re-set the body’s internal clock, aiding to a faster recovery from jet-lags. Researches said that Viagra interferes with an enzyme that lowers levels of a naturally occurring compound that plays a role in the regulation of teh circadian cycle (body’s internal clock).

Scientists conducted a test on adult male hamsters to check for the validity of the research. And the result for the test was positive. Viagra did help the hamster adjust well on jet-lag. However, it was only helpful on eastbound flights, and not on westbound flights. Also, this research is yet to be tested on humans.

This shows a good potential for the Viagra market. Who knows, one day, a sexy flight attendant may be giving you a blue pill as you board the plane. But until then, men can simply enjoy viagra as prescribed by doctors.

Diet with Less the Fat and the Cost + More Flavors

Dieting these days remain for the well-off and determined persons.  Because to effectively do so, one would have to eat healthy and rich in dietary fiber foods, which equates to expensive and tasteless ones.

One could fight the fats on foods by bringing more flavor to one’s dishes!  This is tasty and less costly, plus it is good for your diet.  Small serving of a more flavored dish could satisfy your tummy as a big serving meal could do.
