How The Human Face Might Look In 100,000 Years
Just found this on Forbes and thought I'd share it
In 100,000 years: The human face is proportioned to the 'golden ratio,' though it features unnervingly large eyes. There is green “eye shine” from the tapetum lucidum, and a more pronounced superciliary arch. A sideways blink of the reintroduced plica semilunaris seen in the light gray areas of the eyes, while miniature bone-conduction devices implanted above the ear work with the communications lenses on the eyes.According to Forbes Magazine, the human species is going to undergo several physiological changes including the in the eyes and face.
The eyes are expected to be large and very powerful and possibly wirelessly connected. We'll also have larger nostrils for breathing in other planets as well
Man Injects Himself With A Computer Virus
A researcher from the U.K, Mark Gasson, has become the first person in the world to be infected by a computer virus. Technically speaking, the chip that Gasson inserted into his hand is infected, "which one could argue keeps the virus limited to the domain of the chip even though it lives inside the man." Continue reading for the news report and more information.
But Gasson, of the University of Reading's School of Systems Engineering, suggests this argument is immaterial because he is demonstrating that increasingly sophisticated medical implants will become vulnerable to computer viruses. Which means that those implants that are vital to a human's health and survival could, if corrupted, compromise the health--and potentially the survival--of the carrier.

Man Claims To Have Lived Without Eating For 5 Years
A Sri Lankan man claims he has survived without food for the last five years.
Although experts believe humans can only live for two months without a meal, Kirby de Lanerolle insists he has only needed fresh air as nourishment.
The breatharian also claims his lifestyle - which he says harnesses light, wind and the 'vibrations of God' - can reverse the ageing process and make him immortal.
an interview on TV show Taboo USA cited by The Sun, de Lanerolle said: 'There are energy sources out there that are greater than the food calories you are putting in your body.
'Calories come from photons and light and vibrations and wind. Anything can feed you if your energy centres are open.'
He admits to having eaten seven 500-calorie meals over the last ten months, but claims they made him feel ill.
He said: 'In this consciousness, when I do eat food, it makes me feel very tired. And my alertness goes away when I eat now.'
According to odditycentral.com, de Lanerolle was a drug addict at the age of 16.
But he has gone on to become a Gold medalist at the Junior National Level Championship for Rifle Shooting in 1995, winner of several boxing medals, Executive Advisor to the Ministry of Social Services in Sri Lanka and a successful entrepreneur.
He is also believed to be the only person known to have completed a marathon having only consumed water for three months.
He claims he owes his dramatic turnaround in fortunes to the breatharian lifestyle.
Around five years ago, he read about people who didn't eat for up to six years and didn't drink water for 40 days and 40 nights.
He was also convinced by the writings of a guru who said that cancer, diabetes and heart disease are caused by food.
He now wants to teach others to be breatharians, but experts are worried about his claims because some people have died trying adopt the lifestyle.

New Real Madrid star Isco: Why my dog is called Messi
The highly rated young midfielder is set to complete his move to the Santiago Bernabeu but is seemingly a keen admirer of Barcelona and their players, particularly the Argentine
New Real Madrid signing Isco might have some explaining to do at his new club as the Spain Under-21sinternational seems to be a keen admirer of the club's arch-rival Barcelona and Lionel Messi.The attacking midfielder not only feels that the Argentina international is in a league of his own but has even gone as far as to name his dog after the four-time Ballon d'Or winner.

Armed-Robbers Free Prisoners And kill 10 travellers In Akure
•After storming prison, freeing 179 criminals
According to our source
Hell was let loose in the early hours of yesterday in Akure as some armed robbers invaded Olokuta Medium Prison on Ondo Road Akure in the state capital, freeing about 179 inmates and killing 10 travellers.
Eyewitnesses disclosed that the robbers, about 30, and fully armed, gained access into the prison premises around 1am after using an explosive device suspected to be dynamite to break the prison’s wall.
The bandits had earlier vandalized the streetlights from the highway to the gate of the prison gate to ensure blackout during the operation.
The development, however, caused pandemonium among the residents with the news that the prison was attacked by members of the dreaded Boko Haram. Some of the inmates, including condemned criminals, those awaiting trials and others that were already serving terms, took advantage of the situation and escaped through the various bush paths.
It was gathered that over 100 armed robbers who have been jailed as well as those on awaiting trial, escaped during the jail- break along with other criminals who were also in the prison’s custody.The freeing bandits, it was learnt, were some of the robbers terrorizing the people of the state, arrested and prosecuted by the police and were ordered by the courts to be remanded in the prison’s custody
After carrying out the operation in the prisons, and while trying to escape with their colleagues from the scene, the robbers ran into some travellers along Ondo Road whose vehicle had a flat tyre at a point very close to the entrance of the prison. They shot and killed 10 of the passengers instantly, including the driver.
The robbers, after killing the occupants, waited and replaced the flat tyre with the extra before escaping with the mini bus
Speaking with newsmen, the state’s Comptroller of Prisons, Mr. Tunde Olayiwola, described the invasion as unusual and alien to the state. He said the prison service will bring the culprits to book.
Olayiwola confirmed that only one prison warder was injured in the attack, adding that the affected officer was receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital.
“We cannot specifically identify those behind the attack, but the attack is unusual. One of our officers was injured during the attack and he is in the hospital right now receiving treatment, but I am assuring that those behind the attack, will be brought to book.”
It was, however, gathered that few inmates have been arrested by security operatives as efforts were on to rearrest the fleeing inmates as security agents were seen as early as 8.30 am yesterday combing many brothels in the state capital.
Meanwhile, the state police command has allayed the fear that the attack was carried out by Boko Haram. A statement by the spokesman, Wole Ogodo, said there was no iota of truth in the rumour that the Islamist sect was responsible.

Popular actress Meagan Good, who is well known for her role as Mya in the hit movie Think Like A Man, based on Steve Harvey's best seller: Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man, showed a little too much of herself at the just concluded BET awards.
Meagan is reportedly married to Pastor Devon Franklin, who she was said to have dated for 10 months before tying the knot. At that time, she also revealed she was remaining celibate before they officially became husband and wife.
Although she was not raised in the church, Good says she is a Christian and considers herself very spiritual and has said many times that she will not do roles that she feels disrespects God and that Jesus is her hero.
But when she stepped out at the 2013 BET Awards at Nokia Theatre L.A. Live in Los Angeles, California on Sunday, the 31-year-old actress flaunted her cleavage in a plunging blue gown.

Alesha Dixon's Nigerian baby daddy, Az Ononye makes £15k a year
That's about £1.25k a month. And it's news. I'm not the one making it news o...its The Sun UK. They are probably wondering why a multi millionaire pop star is dating and pregnant for a guy who earns in a year what she probably earns in day. Well, it's called love. Check out The Sun UK report below..
Last night a close pal said: “She and AZ are perfect for each other and they are madly in love, but they couldn’t have more different lives.”
AZ hates sponging off Alesha, 34, and insists on paying his own way, but the former singer with Noughties girl group Mis-Teeq has treated him to the high life.
They have been on several expensive holidays to Miami and Europe.
Meanwhile, his pals have dubbed him the “Louis Vuitton man” because of the designer clothes she buys him.
The father of Alesha Dixon’s baby is a £15,000-a-year dancer who lives in a modest flat. Britain’s Got Talent star Alesha stunned the showbiz world last week by revealing she is pregnant with Azuka Ononye’s child. Until that point the millionaire former pop star had kept the relationship secret.
And far from being a fellow celebrity, Azuka, or AZ as he is known to pals, came from humble beginnings in Nigeria and has had to scrape a living for years.When he was a teenager he moved to the UK for a better life with his two elder brothers. They raised him in a council flat in Fulham, West London — where he still lived until recently. It’s a world away from the Hertfordshire mansion owned by Alesha, who earns £400,000 as a BGT judge and has other lucrative contracts.

Our exclusive pictures show the couple at a 32nd birthday party Alesha arranged for AZ earlier this year. She booked The Crazy Bear Club in Beaconsfield, Bucks, and invited all his friends and family - splashing out thousands of pounds.
The couple met in 2006 when AZ worked as a dancer for R&B group Mis-Teeq, whose hits included Scandalous.
At the time Alesha was still recovering from the heartache of being two-timed by So Solid Crew husband, MC Harvey, 34.
Alesha and AZ became great friends, but did not take it further until 2010.

Chinese lovers fall to their deaths while making love by window
This is a bizarre story but according to The Sun UK, it really happened in the city of Wuhan in China
A couple are believed to have fallen to their deaths when a window they were having sex against gave way. The horrific accident allegedly happened in China when the glass pane shattered.
The tragic man and woman are then understood to have hurtled to their deaths. Eyewitnesses said the couple both fell to the ground as they clinched on to each other.
A source in China said: “With the two of them holding each other tight, they fell out of the building”. Shocking photos in China appear to show the couple on the ground under sheets. Blood is splattered near their bodies on the pavement.
Medical staff and what appear to be police officers can also be seen examining the scene. The man and woman are thought to have fallen out of an apartment in the city of Wuhan, central China.

3 Corps Members Kidnapped In Rivers State
Three Nigerian corps members serving at Government Comprehensive Secondary School in the oil producing state of Rivers were kidnapped early yesterday morning through Ogolokom Water Front in Abua.
The kidnapped corps members (two males and one female) were taken away by their abductors from the Corpers’ Lodge around 12am. And they have been identified as Ugochi Martins, Lajoke Richard and Esther Nwachukwu.
The armed hoodlums had gained entrance into their lodge while they (corps members) were fast asleep and seized their victims. Some items, including mobile phones were said to have been taken away by the suspected kidnappers, who came with a vehicle.
Confirming the kidnap,the Rivers State Police Command Public Relations Officer,Angela Agabe,DSP, said the command has closed down three lodges being used by corps members in Abua/odual Local Govt area following the kidnap.
The police image maker also said other corps members have been relocated to Ominama corpers lodge at Abua central for safety.
DSP Angela Agabe further said security operatives have been drafted to the area and intensive search is on to rescue the innocent kidnapped NYSC members.
The Corps Members lodge closed down is located at Ogolokom, Otapha and Egbelom communities.
