Lizzie Velasquez Has Been Called The World's Ugliest Woman. She's Also The Most Courageous...

Lizzie Velasquez knows what it's like to be ridiculed and bullied.
From childhood onwards she's suffered the taunts of others in her neighborhood and from cyber bullies from around this sometimes very unpleasant world.
As a seventeen year old, she came across a video of herself on YouTube that described her as The World's Ugliest Woman.
Now twenty six this beautiful, inspirational and courageous woman has hit back with an anti-bullying doco about her life describing her battle with the rare condition called Marfan Syndrome and Lipodystrophy which doesn't allow her to put on weight. At five foot two, Lizzie weighs only fifty eight pounds.
She made an amazing public debut on TED and is now starring in A Brave Heart, her own story...

This Man Has Photographed Everything His Right Hand Has Touched For The Past Eleven Years...

Alberto Frigo has photographed everything,
yes evidently everything according to his wife. Everything he's touched with his right hand he photographs with a tiny camera he carries
in his left hand.
Some would suggest the Italian has been touched by the sun and there are those who think the guy might get a real job. Or even a life.
But Mr Frigo is determined to continue with his rather bizarre and obsessive project until he reaches retirement age in another
twenty five years.
He shoots around seventy six images a day.
You do the maths...

The Average Size Of A Man's Penis Is Now Publicly Exposed...

At last the question that men
have always desired the answer to and have been too embarrassed to ask.
And the question that most women have known to be irrelevant because they've known that size has never really mattered. Or has it.
Now scientists have measured more than fifteen thousand men's penises in an effort to find out what size is normal or average.
Researchers at King's College London hoped the review would help address the concern, anxiety and distress that some men
have about their penis size.
They revealed that the average flaccid penis is 3.6ins (9.16cm) long, or 5.2ins (13.24cm) when stretched and 3.7ins (9.31cm) in circumference.
Erect penises are 5.1ins (13.12cm) long on average and 4.5ins (11.66cm) in girth.
And we know don't we, that God gave man a penis and a brain, but not enough blood to use them both at the same time...
