Last month the energy used for the cyber currencies was equivalent to all the energy used in Australia and New Zealand put together in a year, so much for this green technology without all that paper recycling and metal coins.

Sores
Ones around your lips and mouth are most likely cold sores, which are caused by the type 1 herpes virus. (Most people with oral herpes were infected from saliva as children or young adults, not from sexual contact.) Once you get the virus, it stays with you. Sores may break out when you’re sick, anxious, or overtired, or you’ve been out in the sun too long. They usually go away on their own, but if you have big or frequent outbreaks, your doctor may suggest medication.

Trim your toenails so they’re even with the tips of your toes. Leave them too long and they can get caught on something. Cut them too short and you could get ingrown toenails. How? The tops of your shoes could press super-short nails into the tissue around them. Another way to prevent ingrown toenails is to always trim your toenails straight across, never in a curve.

That's rather fascinating; constructing facial features based on DNA.

With that tech you could predict if a couple is going to have ugly kids.

Have you ever noticed couples who marry or stay together for a long while tend to look similar in many respects.Have a look at the social pages of weddings and you'll see what I meant.
If there isn't any similarities I reckon they are doomed!

For the last 10 years Australian artist Jodi Rose has travelled the world recording the vibrations in bridge cables with contact microphones and using them to create experimental music. You could say she has an almost intimate relationship with bridges, and recently she decided to make it official by marrying a mysterious bridge in the south of France.

It's not exactly surprising that Japan is home to so many numerous record holders for longevity: As of 2017, almost 68,000 people in Japan were over 100. http://cobess.com/2018/07/28/worlds-oldest-person-a-japanese-woman-died-at-age-117.html

Miyako, born on May 2, 1901, became the world’s oldest person in April after Nabi Tajima from Kikai island in southern Japan died at the age of 117.
Chiyo Miyako died Sunday. Her death was confirmed Friday by Kanagawa prefecture, her home state south of Tokyo.

Miyako’s family called her “the goddess” and remembered her as a chatty person who was patient and kind to others, according to Guinness World Records, which had certified her title. Miyako enjoyed calligraphy, which she had practiced until recently, and eating sushi and eel, Guinness said.

Miyako's longevity record was confirmed following research and an evidence review, according to Guinness World Records and its Gerontology Research Group.[4] She died on 22 July 2018 in Yokohama, at the age of 117 years, 81 days.[7] After Miyako's death, Kane Tanaka, born 2 January 1903 and living in Fukuoka, Japan, became the world's oldest verified living person.

Miyako was born in Wakayama in the Kansai region of Japan on 2 May 1901.[6] She credited eating eel, drinking red wine, and never smoking for her longevity.[5]

It doesn't matter how many battles you win if you finally win the war. You can win the war and not win any battles, just as you can win every battle and still lose the war. However, if you win the war and win every battle and end up defeated after all, ones mind boggles but it does happen.

Confessions (Latin: Confessiones) is the name of an autobiographical work, consisting of 13 books, by Saint Augustine of Hippo, written in Latin between AD 397 and 400.[1] The work outlines Saint Augustine's sinful youth and his conversion to Christianity. Modern English translations of it are sometimes published under the title The Confessions of Saint Augustine in order to distinguish the book from other books with similar titles. Its original title was Confessions in Thirteen Books, and it was composed to be read out loud with each book being a complete unit.[2]

Confessions is generally considered one of Augustine's most important texts. It is widely seen as the first Western autobiography ever written, and was an influential model for Christian writers throughout the Middle Ages. Professor Henry Chadwick wrote that Confessions will "always rank among the great masterpieces of western literature".[3]

I must admit bridges do have a certain feminine quality when it comes to curves and bumps and other funny lumps (some of even have a tape to cut prior to the first crossing) so....

.. assuming that bridge is female this marriage could only be possible due to our SSM laws ?

So @Tisme was right. Society is going under water
