Car TalkRe: Check Out New Keke Napep With Full A.C Coming To Nigeria Soonest by DaimlerBen(m): 4:43am On Aug 25, 2015
The essence of keke without doors is to take three (3) adults uncomfortably. With these doors, can it carry two "Big Mommas"?

1. License Plate reads “1”.
https://static1.therichestimages.com/cdn/413/310/90/cw/wp-content/uploads/Display.jpg

Businessman Saeed Abdul Ghafour Khouri shelled out 52.2 dirham, which equates to more than $14.2 million to purchase a license plate with the number one. He ousted his relative from the top spot after less than on year and actually paid more for his one plate than his family member did for the second and third most expensive plates on this lit. Overall, it is the most expensive license plate of all time, surpassing a license plate in the United Kingdom that read “F1.”
With more than 700 people in attendance at Abu Dhabi’s seven-star Emirates Palace, ready to spend their money on the license plate, it was Saeed Abdul Ghafour Khouri who spent the money to be the best. He isn’t like Talal Ali Mohammad Khouri who won the “5” auction. He didn’t buy it with the hopes of making more money for charity after his death. He instead bought it because he wanted to be the one who had it and didn’t care how much money he needed to spend.

When it comes to showing your wealth in an oil-rich area like Dubai, not only do you need the fancy Mercedes, Lexus, or Land Rover, you also need the license plate to match. Some even say in this region that without a quality license plate, your car won’t be worth the money you spent. This doesn’t mean you are seeking out a gold plated license plate that says boss, [or] any words for that matter; it means you are in search of a license plate that only has one or two numbers, specifically between one and ten…

HealthIs It Dangerous To Stifle A Sneeze? by DaimlerBen(op): 3:50am On Jul 22, 2015
https://s.hswstatic.com/gif/dangerous-stifle-sneeze-1.jpg

It's a threat that could strike anyone, anywhere. Where will you be when it hits? You could be standing over beakers in a chemistry lab, carefully measuring droplets of acid into a vial. Or driving along a busy two-lane highway, trying to keep your composure as oncoming traffic zooms by.

And, suddenly, there it is: an ear-splitting, saliva-spewing, nose-clearing sneeze . But what if you decided, just as the urge to sneeze peaked, to stop it? Would stifling your sneeze be dangerous?

Blocking a sneeze from taking its natural course could cause bodily harm, but only in rare, worst-case instances. The explosion of air from your lungs could be redirected up and into the ears' Eustachian tubes.
These delicate tubes are susceptible to injury — even a strong internal puff of air can rupture eardrums, cause vertigo (dizziness) or a hearing deficit. The force of the stopped sneeze also could push infected mucus into the Eustachian tube, where it could reach the middle ear and spread infection.

Stifling a sneeze could cause other issues, too, ranging from the potentially dangerous to the downright embarrassing. Let's say you have a violent sneeze brewing, but at the last minute, squeeze your nostrils to hold it in. The force of the sneeze could cause everything from a neck injury to temporary incontinence. A weakened blood vessel in the brain could rupture if a sneeze is snuffed, thanks to a temporary spike in blood pressure. Eye injuries could range from hemorrhages deep within the orbital to the bruises brought on by an increase in pressure.

There is a safer way, it turns out, to stifle a sneeze: pressing against your fingers against your upper lip, just as you feel it coming on. This can interrupt the signals to sneeze that your brain is sending along the facial nerves. Once the sneeze starts, though, your best course of action may be to let it loose. You might cover everything in a 3-foot (1-meter) radius with snot, but - hey - at least you won't rupture your eardrums, put a kink in your neck or break a blood vessel in your eye.
