6. Worlds Longest Hair

Terelynn Russel from Illinois seems to be the real life Rapunzel thanks to her nearly 6 foot long hair. Terelynn’s daughters are also following in their mom’s footstep; they too have exceptionally long hair

7. Longest Lashes

Who needs mascara when you have lashes that are extremely long? Not this guy, that’s for sure. 58-year old Valery Smagliy from Ukraine claims that his lashes grew extremely long after eating a particular type of food.

Smagliy, however, has not revealed the food in question as he plans to market it. He eventually had the lashes cut as it was difficult for him to see properly.

8. Backwards Feet

Wang Fang from China was born with feet that face backwards, but despite her disability, she says she can run faster than most of her friends.

Wang, who is in her 30’s, was told by doctors that she wouldn’t be able to walk properly because of her condition. Proving everyone wrong, Wang doesn’t just walk, but she can run and leads a normal life while working as a waitress.

9. Largest Natural Breasts

Norma Stitz didn’t need surgery to achieve her status as the woman with the largest natural breasts — a title she was given by the Guinness Book of World Records in 1999. Norma also holds the record as the owner of the world’s largest bra.

Norma, who is also known as Annie Hawkins-Turner claims that her chest weighs 56 pounds.

10. The Biggest Boobs In A Bikini

They say if you have, it flaunt it and this woman definitely ‘has it’.

11. Longest Fingernails

Lee Redmond from the US started growing her nails in 1979 and didn’t cut them for 30 years. In 2008 Lee’s nails were recorded at 28ft 4.5 inches long.

Unfortunately in 2009, all ten of her fingernails were broken due to a car accident.

12. Mehmet Ozyurek from Turkey was awarded by the Guinness Book of World Records as having the longest nose on a living person.

Mehmet’s nose was measured in 2010 at 8.8 centimeters long from bridge to tip

Celebrities12 Strange People You Have To See To Believe by tgbaba(op): 8:03pm On Aug 26, 2015
i think we can all agree that life is one fun, crazy, unpredictable ride, and come to think of it, humans are the same; sometimes we do things that cannot really be explained and sometimes things happen to us without explanation. Whether it’s the biggest breasts in the world, the tallest teenager in the world or someone with the secret to growing super long lashes; just take a look at these strange people that you have to see to believe.

1. The Magnet Man

Muhibija Buljubasic probably belongs in a superhero movie thanks to his gift of sticking random objects (including metal and plastic) to his body. The 56 year old who hails from Bosnia says he discovered the rare talent 5 years ago.


2. Twin Strangers

It is often said that everyone has a doppelganger, and 26-year old Niamh Geaney certainly got a shock when she set out to find hers.

Not only does her doppelganger, Karen Branigan, 29 look exactly like her with the same brown hair and grey eyes; turns out they only live an hour away from each other.

3. The Largest Fake Breast

Blame it on the world’s obsession with big boobs, or blame it on her plastic surgeon, either way German model Mayra Hills is known for having the largest fake breast in the world. Her bra size is 32Z, yes I said Z!

4. The Vampire Lady

Maria Jose Cristerna was a lawyer at one point in her life, but that was before she transformed into the vampire lady.

Maria, who is now a tattoo artist, is covered in tattoos from head to toe, has titanium horns inserted into her forehead and has gone through tons of dental work to have her teeth sharpened for the vampire effect.

5. Worlds Tallest Bride

In 2014, Elisany da Cruz Silva, the tallest teenager in Brazil at 6ft 8 inches tall, got engaged to her 5ft 4 inch tall boyfriend after dating for 3 years.

Elisany has a rare form of gigantism due to a tumor in her pituitary glands.

Celebrities5 Expensive Celebrity Plastic Surgeries by tgbaba(op): 10:27pm On Aug 23, 2015
We all want to look good for as long as humanly possible. For celebrities that are raking in a lot of money, it can be a lot easier to afford “enhancements”. Most of these renovations on celebs “personal” real estate are not only noticeable, but downright terrible! Sure, some will do very minor corrections, but there are those who want to look like a cat or something else crazy— it’s as expensive as it is weird.

In this list, you will find out which celebrities spent the highest amounts of money on plastic surgeries. You will also get to see some of the strangest transformations that have ever been documented in modern medicine. These days, it’s not that strange that people find the fountain of youth only a knife away appealing, but it hardly ever comes out right.

If you want a bigger butt or an injection that will make your lips look like you got stung by a bee, you can do it! But if you want it done correctly, you better go to a place like Beverly Hills instead of Tijuana, Mexico. A lot of people have made that mistake in an effort to save money.

So which celebrities emptied out their checkbooks in order to go under non-essential surgery, when most Americans can’t even afford medication? Here are the biggest plastic surgery splurges (splurgeries, if you will) that celebs have done to themselves.


(#5)– NICKI MINAJ ($11,500)
At one point, Nicki Minaj looked like a normal girl hailing from Trinidad and Tobago. These days, she is looking more like a strange hybrid between about four different ethnicities and a Barbie Doll. But Nicki’s new look hasn’t stopped her from being massively popular thanks to songs that are essentially about sex and drugs— without any actual musical instruments being played.

Nicki spent $11,500 on three different surgeries to establish her new appearance. The cheapest one was a skin bleaching to make her skin look lighter. The most expensive one was a nose job that made the tip of her nose point down instead of up. The other major procedure Nicki had done was the oddest. She spent over $5,000 to get silicone implants in each buttocks. Now, Nicki shakes her prosthetic butt around for everyone


(#4) – NADYA “Octomom” SULEMAN ($12,810)

Instead of getting pregnant in the natural way, Nadya Suleman was assisted by a team of doctors in order to become pregnant with octuplets. Octomom did this mainly because she’s an absolute nut who needed to surround herself with children.

Most moms want to look good after having children, so having eight can really do a number on the body. Surgery was probably a very necessary thing for Nadya in one area, but a waste of cash elsewhere. The Octomom spent $5,900 on vaginal rejuvenation, and nearly $7,000 on a nose job and lip injections.

(#3) – LIL KIM ($19,625)

A lot of people don’t recognize Lil’ Kim these days, since she looks more like a white muppet than the African-American rapper we were used to seeing in the 1990’s. Lil’ Kim had five operations done while disappearing from the limelight and came back very differently.

Among Lil’ Kim’s procedures were; a skin bleach (thus creating the white effect), lip injections, a nose job, liposuction and breast implants. When it was all said and done, Lil’ Kim ended up having more plastic surgeries than hit singles over the last 15 years. She still has a decent net worth of $18 million, though.

#2 – VIVICA FOX ($26,085)

Vivica Fox was never really an A-list star, even during her most relevant period. Fox wanted to stay at least somewhat relevant and young looking, so she opted to go under the knife. The procedures Fox had were Botox injections, lip injections, jaw implants, a facelift and breast implants.

You know, just for fun, let’s take a look at a list of cars that came out in 2014 that cost less than Fox’s surgeries. Mazda Miata, Fiat 500 Abarth, Scion FR-S, Ford Fiesta and the Jeep Wrangler. Those aren’t bad cars and will probably last longer than jaw implants. Just remember that.

#1 JOCELYN WILDENSTEIN ($2 Million)

There probably isn’t a day in her life that the ‘socialite’ Jocelyn Wildenstein (also known as “Catwoman”) doesn’t get asked “what in the world happened to you?” What happened was a series of unnecessary plastic surgeries that spanned the course of a few decades, racking up bills worth over $2 million. After all of these surgeries, the end result has made Wildenstein look more like a nightmarish version of a cat than a person.

Jocelyn has had so many surgeries that listing them all would just be a waste of your time, but just know that she has had her eyelids stretched to the side of her face. She has also had surgery on her lips that makes her look like Heath Ledger’s version of “The Joker”. Except Jocelyn doesn’t have an interesting backstory like “The Joker”, she just married into a rich family. Her ex-husband Alec Wildenstein got the last laugh, putting a clause in their initial $2.5 billion divorce settlement (plus an extra $100 million per year) that absolutely no money is to be used for plastic surgery.

PoliticsTouch Not by tgbaba(op): 5:50pm On Aug 01, 2015
When I see Nigerians that are tribalistic and bigoted, I fear and pity them at the same time.

We are supposed to come together and make Nigeria great again, however, we don't seem to get it.

Look at Olusegun Obasanjo, who was the president of Nigeria for 8 years, he is from Ogun state, but ask people of Ogun state, of what benefit is he to the people of the state?

Niger state has produced two heads of state, Ibrahim Babangida and Abdusalam Abubakar. I was privileged to serve in the state during my National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), when I got to my place of primary assignment, I started crying, the first question I asked was this: "am I still in Nigeria?" The people said "yes." Niger state was so underdeveloped; I witnessed poverty and unspeakable suffering so much so that I think they were better off without a government.

Goodluck Jonathan is from Bayelsa state. A state with just 9 local governments, several people in that state don't have toilets, they don't have running water, no hospitals so much so that his wife had to travel to Germany each time she had a running nose. Even though he was in power for 5 years, they are still suffering.

Talk about the former minister of petroleum resources, Dieziani Alison-Madueke, go check out what her village looks like, you will be shocked. If I continue, we will have an endless list.

Last month some universities in the United Kingdom did their graduation. I saw pictures of sons and daughters of those who have stolen our collective wealth on Facebook and Instagram. These are the people who are supposed to make our education sector solid, most of their children are citizens of foreign countries, they've abandoned this nation, the truth is they no longer care about us, their kids are not citizens of this country, their kids are no longer your tribesmen or kith and kin. They don't care about us. What are the benefits of being a Nigerian? We pay for almost everything, but we get no services. Our country is blessed, but we have selfish and greedy leaders.

Since last week, we keep hearing of theft of public funds, so much money that some former government officials people have embezzled. It is mindboggling! They now steal in billions and trillions, yet the masses are suffering.

I wonder what one person needs so much money for.

Even if you build a mansion, you can only sleep in one room, on one bed. In the end, we are all indebted to death. The highest you can get is befitting burial in an expensive casket. If you are a Muslim just a white wrapper. In the end, it is "vanity upon vanity."

The earlier you agree that the failure of leadership is a big part of our problem the better! No one can save us but ourselves. So I come back to the young suffering, unemployed and deprived citizens who are first to to step up to defend corruption, nepotism and theft of our commonwealth because someone accused is from their tribe, church, mosque or social circle or because they have been promised a token gift, well, now you know, your condition will not change regardless of whether the president, minister or governor comes from your village so long as he does care about anyone.

May this new government succeed! I am looking forward to seeing a better and rewarding future for Nigeria and Nigerians

CrimeScamed At Alaba Market by tgbaba(op):
This is not a tribal bashing trend O. I only want to talk about how those PEOPLE in Alaba scamed me.
Well it happened that after ordering for rechargeable fan from one of the online marketing company and they failed to deliver and also latter cancelled the order based on what I don't understand.
I decided to go to Alaba to get rechargeable fan myself.
On the a saturday I went to the market, met with one ibo guy in his shop, priced the fan. After agreeing on price I told the guy to test the fan, he did and packed it in a box.
On getting home same day the first thing I noticed was the manual in the box is not of same maker as the fan sold to me. Also some screws were missing.
I still went ahead to assemble it. Put bat3 in the remote control, charged the fan for some hours before NEPA strike.
Then I put on the fan. It didn't work. I thought maybe I didn't charge it enough. when NEPA restored light that evening I tried putting the fan on while charging cos dats wat I was told dat the fan charges while working when plugged. After charging for days I decided to go and return it on tuesday to the seller.
On getting there the first thing that I noticed was that the people around the guy's shop knew about the whole set up.
After talking at length and everything the bastard said I will add 4k on top for him to give me another one. We later agreed on 2k after which he went away for like 1 hour and came back with another fan. He removed the engine and battery from the one he brought and exchange it with the one he sold to me( I know he is going to sell the fake to another person) and even tested the fan for some minutes.
I took the fan home. Then I charged till evening when NEPA decided to strike again.
Then I on the fan and slept off. After some hours I woke up sweaty. Alas my new fan had stopped work. I thought the bat3 had run down. Since that day the fan has refuse to work again. At the moment I am typing in my bathing suit all sweaty also swearing for the flat 'Ori' for being scammers. E no go beta for the guy AMEN
Business5 Skills You Must Acquire Before You Can Lead by tgbaba(op): 4:22pm On Feb 06, 2015
1. Practice self-reflection.
One of the keys to being a good leader is having the ability to reflect back on decisions made and look at situations, whether good or bad, as lessons.
Once you've done so, you can actively apply what you've learned. Taking mistakes or failures in stride and moving forward is an essential part of becoming a leader of integrity. Many of these lessons are useful to share with staff and strategic partners. In my case, I've found they often apply even to my children.
2. Be proactive rather than reactive.
Successful leaders come to the table prepared for a variety of scenarios and know how to behave when situations fall apart or don't go according to plan. Preparedness ensures that you're never in a situation where you can't offer value or assist in problem solving as needed.
This is simply being proactive. If you're in a reactive state, chances are you're not operating from a place of calm; your emotions are leading the charge. The best decisions, however, often result from when your thoughts and emotions work in tandem.
You must always consider not only what's favorable for the company's bottom line but also what's best for the team and the overall morale of the company.
3. Find an unshakeable "why."
Effective leaders know their "why" and live it always. If you lack a clear vision about what you want personally and professionally, your commitment and focus will be inconsistent and you'll fail to inspire those you lead.
The greatest leaders have the drive to ensure that their vision comes to fruition even in the face of adversity. It's this can-do attitude that gives rise to the most successful and most rewarding leadership experiences. Great leaders have a clear vision that starts from within. It's drawn from their understanding of their natural gifts and desires.
4. Feel passion for what you do.
If you don't have a deep burning in your belly for success in your venture, it will be difficult to maintain the consistency you need to lead your team to victory.
The bigger the impact you want to have, the greater your influence must be. And nothing stirs the pot more than having a passionate leader who's not only committed to the success of the company but also to that of each employee.
5. Be prepared to do what others won't.
As the old adage goes, "When the going gets tough, the tough get going." Great leaders know that for them, failure is not an option. Even if everything seems to be falling apart, a great leader has the self-discipline to stand up to failure or it crumbles the business like a house of cards.
This means resisting the urge to make excuses and always doing the hard work, even when it seems like sheer agony. It all comes back to the need for crystal clear vision: Sometimes picturing the end result and the satisfaction of the challenge being behind you is the only way to make it through the rough spots.

HealthMeaning Behind Your Sex Dream by tgbaba(op): 3:37pm On Jan 08, 2015
Ever wake up in the AM wondering how things got so steamy during your dreaming hours? "Just because you're not awake doesn't mean your libido is taking a rest," says Susan Block, PhD, a Los Angeles-based sexologist and founder of the Dr. Susan Block Institute for the Erotic Arts and Sciences. "Dreams are a way for your subconscious to unpack everything that's affecting your life, and often, dreams about sex aren't literal. Instead, they could symbolize problems, desires, and hopes in all facets of your life."

Paying attention to your sex dreams over time can be a powerful way to get what you want out of your life, says Lauri Loewenberg, dream expert and author of Dream On It: Unlock Your Dreams, Change Your Life. "Writing your dreams down each morning and looking at your journals for patterns over time can help you see what your subconscious is trying to tell you." Here, 8 common sex dreams, and what you can learn from them.

Having sex with an acquaintance.
Nope, this doesn't mean you have any desire to cheat on your significant other with the man who lives next door or the person who makes your morning coffee—it just means that you may admire that person and wish you possessed some of their qualities, or whatever qualities they seem to express in your dream, says Loewenberg. "Sex is the ultimate act of union between two individuals, so when you're having sex with someone in your dreams, it may mean that you want what they have."


Getting it on with your boss.
Yes, this dream means you want to get closer with your boss—but not in that way. Because sex is so intimate, it may mean you're feeling especially distant from your boss's ideas or management style, and may need to figure out a way to get closer (and not in the type of way that'll make you blush when you run into each other at the copier!)

Trying to find a private space with a partner.
Dreams of having problems finding a place to have sex can often represent a lack of connection between you and your partner in your day-to-day life. Take a look at your calendar: Are you being busy instead of getting busy most days? It may be time to schedule a date night, says Loewenberg.

The back-and-forth rocking movement of riding, the physical connection between you and the horse—are you surprised this is another one of those dreams symbolizing doing the deed? It also may be a sign you want to let go a little more between the sheets. Need some ideas? Try these sex bucket list ideas to shake up your routine.

Having sex in public.
A critical comment about your partner from a friend or family member could spark this embarrassing dream, since being exposed in front of others can be tied to your feelings about how other people see your life and love decisions.

Flying.
Being completely free, unencumbered, totally giving into physical sensation…sound familiar? "Flying in a dream is closely connected to orgasm," says Block. A dream about flying could be indicative of frustrations regarding the current state of your own sex life, or could simply be your mind playing its' subconscious highlight reel.

Sex with a celeb
Hey, you and George Clooney can be single in your subconscious, but as good as the dream-sex may have been, it's not really about him (sorry, George!). Instead, dreams about having sex with a celebrity may indicate that you seek the spotlight in your own life. Volunteer to spearhead a project at work, speak up with friends and family, or take an improv class (hey, why not?).

Dreaming about an ex.
If this happens every so often, it may simply be your brain sifting through its mental hard drive. Maybe his birthday is coming up, or maybe you saw a Tweet from him in your feed, but it doesn't mean that he's the one who got away or that you subconsciously want to get back together. However, if you're dreaming about him a lot, or are pretty sure those dreams sparked from your hour-long deep dive Google searches of his name, it could be a sign that there are issues in your current relationship that need addressing.
HealthSuffering From Insomnia? Then U Need To Read This by tgbaba(op): 1:23pm On Dec 31, 2014
Some people have trouble falling asleep. Others can’t stay asleep. And then there are the people who have trouble turning life “off” and tucking into bed at a reasonable hour.

Whatever the reason, we’re not alone—more than 50 million Americans don’t get enough shut-eye. Yet the health benefits of a good night’s rest are countless: sleep helps keep you happy, your brain sharp, your immune system strong, your waistline trim, your skin looking youthful—and lowers your risk of high blood pressure and heart disease.

If you could pick the right foods to help you get the best sleep possible, wouldn’t you? And if you knew which foods would hinder your restful slumber, wouldn’t you avoid them? Now’s your chance to learn which foods to eat, and which to steer clear of for a good night’s sleep.

Reach for tryptophan-rich foods

We’ve all heard of warm milk’s magical ability to send us off to dreamland. Do you know why it’s true? Dairy foods contain tryptophan, which is a sleep-promoting substance. Other foods that are high in tryptophan include nuts and seeds, bananas, honey, and eggs.

Indulge your craving for carbohydrates

Carbohydrate-rich foods complement dairy foods by increasing the level of sleep-inducing tryptophan in the blood. So, a few perfect late night snacks to get you snoozing might include a bowl of cereal and milk, yogurt and crackers, or bread and cheese.

Have a snack before bedtime

If you struggle with insomnia, a little food in your stomach may help you sleep. But don’t use this as an open invitation to pig out. Keep the snack small. A heavy meal will tax your digestive system, making you uncomfortable and unable to get soothing sleep.

Put down the burger and fries!

As if you needed another reason to avoid high-fat foods, research shows that people who often eat high-fat foods not only gain weight, they also experience a disruption of their sleep cycles. A heavy meal activates digestion, which can lead to nighttime trips to the bathroom.

Beware of hidden caffeine

It’s no surprise that an evening cup of coffee might disrupt your sleep. Even moderate caffeine can cause sleep disturbances. But don’t forget about less obvious caffeine sources, like chocolate, cola, tea, and decaffeinated coffee. For better sleep, cut all caffeine from your diet four to six hours before bedtime.

Medications may contain caffeine

Some over-the-counter and prescription drugs contain caffeine, too, such as pain relievers, weight loss pills, diuretics, and cold medicines. These and other medications may have as much or even more caffeine than a cup of coffee. Check the label of nonprescription drugs or the prescription drug information sheet to see if your medicine interferes with sleep or can cause insomnia.

Skip the nightcap

Here’s the catch-22 with alcohol: It may help you fall asleep faster, but you may experience frequent awakenings, less restful sleep, headaches, night sweats and nightmares. If you’re consuming alcohol in the evening, balance each drink with a glass a water to dilute the alcohol’s effects. For a good night’s sleep, the better bet is to avoid alcohol four to six hours before bedtime.

Beware of heavy, spicy foods

Lying down with a full belly can make you uncomfortable, since the digestive system slows down when you sleep. It can also lead to heartburn, as can spicy cuisine. Make sure to finish a heavy meal at least four hours before bedtime.

Eat fish: Most fish—and especially salmon, halibut and tuna—boast vitamin B6, which is needed to make melatonin (a sleep-inducing hormone triggered by darkness), according to an article published in the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences.

Take bananas: Bananas, well-known for being rich in potassium, are also a good source of Vitamin B6, which is needed to make melatonin (a sleep-inducing hormone triggered by darkness), according to an article published in the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences.

Keep protein to a minimum at bedtime

Sorry Atkins. Protein, an essential part of our daytime fare, is a poor choice for a bedtime snack. Protein-rich foods are harder to digest. So skip the high-protein snack before bedtime and opt for a glass of warm milk or some sleep-friendly carbs, like crackers.

Cut the fluids by 8 P.M.

Yes, staying hydrated throughout the day is great for your body, but curtail your fluid intake before bed. You’re sure to have interrupted sleep if you’re constantly getting up to go to the bathroom.

Don’t be fooled by a relaxing smoke

Nicotine is a stimulant, with effects similar to caffeine. Avoid smoking before bedtime or if you wake up in the middle of the night.

CrimeWoman Wants To Force Bbeejay On Her Victim by tgbaba(op): 11:02am On Nov 02, 2014
Texas woman who has already three run-ins with police in the past month allegedly broke into her husband's friend's house on Monday and tried to "perform MouthAction upon him," according to police.

Megan Davis Hoelting, 31, is charged with felony burglary with the intent of committing a sexual assault, according to the Williamson County Sheriff's Office.

Police documents obtained by the Smoking Gun state that Hoelting got into the house through an unlocked gate. The man told deputies that he awoke to find the woman straddling his legs and dressed only in her underwear, then "felt the offender place his penis in her mouth."

Once he recognized who the intruder was, the man ordered her to leave the house. When Hoelting refused, the man called 911.

Hoelting's other arrests were for theft, assault and public intoxication. According to police she has been held county jail since her most recent arrest.

I was reading something about Roman Abramovich, the Russian billionaire, then I saw this" Abramovich was the governor of Chukotka from 2000 to 2008. It has been estimated that he spent over US$1.3 billion (€925 million) of HIS OWN money on the region, which now has one of the highest birth rates in Russia under Abramovich, living standards improved, schools and housing were restored and new investors were being drawn to the region.
Though this guy had been implicated in some rough deals in Russia, no one can deny what he did in chukotka.

TravelWhy Does The Transport Fare Has To Increase During Festive Period by tgbaba(op): 6:53am On Oct 05, 2014
Its so sad that at every festive period, bus drivers are fond of increasing transport fare. Today, coming from lagos to ibadan that one pay N800 or max N1000 normally, was increased to N2500. I could remember in school when we are going on holiday, they use to do same thing but student union will protest and then they will reach a compromise. Now who will fight for common ppl. Its so sad that common ppl use to exploit themselves. Same way price of things go up and never come down, same way ppl increase price of food stuff on festive period. We should fear God O, if we all claim to be worshiping God.
HealthEBOLA: If Nigeria Can Do It Anybody Can Do It by tgbaba(op): 8:32pm On Sep 25, 2014
Nigeria and Senegal, where the situation is judged "stable --
for the moment," are seen as success stories.
Those countries have shown conventional methods such as
early detection, contact tracing, isolation and an adequate
supply of personal protective equipment can contain the virus,
WHO said.
"If Nigeria can control an outbreak caused by such a deadly
and highly contagious virus, right from the start, any country
in the world can do the same," its report said.
