1.Our body is capable of producing aspirin
Eating fruiys and vege may help human body make its own aspirin. Findings from the Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry indicate that study participants who received benzoic acid, a natural substance in fruits and vegetables, could make their own salicylic acid , the key component that gives aspirin its anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties.

2.Taking a nap at work is good for your boss
A 20-minute nap can improve your overall alertness, boost your mood, and increase productivity. William Anthony, co-author of The Art of Napping at Work (Larson Publications, 1999), says the post-nap boost can last for several hours. In addition, your heart may reap benefits from napping. In a six-year study of Greek adults, researchers found that that men who took naps at least three times a week had a 37 percent lower risk of heart-related death.
3.Every person has a unique tongue print
Just like fingerprints. The tongue is a unique organ in that it can be stuck out of mouth for inspection, and yet it is otherwise well protected in the mouth and is difficult to forge. The tongue also presents both geometric shape information and physiological texture information which are potentially useful in identity verification applications.
4. White skin has evolved over time
White skin was a result of humans moving away from the equator. Also all skin, without coloring, would appear creamy white. Near-surface blood vessels add a blush of red. A yellow pigment also tints the canvas. Lastly, sepia-toned melanin, created in response to ultraviolet rays, appears black in large amounts. These four hues mix in different proportions to create the skin colors of all the peoples of Earth.
5.The foot is home to the body's thickest area of skin
The skin on the palms and the soles of the feet is 4 mm thick and the thickest skin in the body, the heel portions of the feet being the thickest portions. It's also got the most sweat glands than in any other area.
6.The appendix isn't as useless as you think
Long denigrated as vestigial or useless, the appendix actually has a reason to be – as a “safe house” for the beneficial bacteria living in the human gut. The beneficial bacteria in the appendix that aid digestion can ride out a bout of diarrhea that completely evacuates the intestines and emerge afterwards to repopulate the gut.
7.The body is taller in the morning than in the evening
The body is taller in the morning than in the evening. You might want to schedule that basketball game for first thing in the morning. That's because our bodies are on average about half an inch taller in the morning, thanks to excess fluid between our discs, which is replenished while we sleep. As the day goes on, and our bodies undergo the strain of standing, the discs get compressed and the fluid seeps out, so the body loses that small bit of extra height.

Bila Pak Pandir beli Handphone...
Pada suatu hari,ada seorang yang kaya raya tapi buta teknologi namanya Pak Pandir, datang ke Kuala Lumpur. Ia berasal dari sebuah daerah yang sangat terpencil jauh di dalam hutan. Ia datang ke sebuah kedai handphone. "Saya mahu beli handphone yang paling baru, mahal dan canggih", katanya dengan nada sombong. "Ini encik, handphone yang encik inginkan...tapi wang encik cukup ke?", tanya pemilik kedai tidak yakin.
"Ini duit tiga ribu", jawab Pak Pandir. "Tapi handphonenya tak boleh hidup pun?" marah Pak Pandir. "Oh, encik perlu beli sim card ... baru boleh guna". "Saya beli sim cardnya" jawab Pak Pandir. Tak lama kemudian, urusan mereka pun selesai dan Pak Pandir kembali ke kampungnya.
Sesampai di kampung, handphonenya tak boleh digunakan, Pak Pandir rasa marah dan segera pergi ke Kuala Lumpur semula.
"Awak tipu saya ya!!!Handphone saya tak boleh buat panggilan!!!!!!!!!!" marah Pak Pandir. "Oooooo......mungkin tak ada signal encik".
"Saya beli signalnya sekali. Kalau jual handphone jangan lupa jual signalnya sekali"
