There is nothing like a biblical plague landing on your face to make you question the importance of importance of physical appearance. I was 24 years old when I noticed a massive knot on my face that caused my left eye to close slightly. I was sure that something horrible had bitten me and was equally sure that some topical cream and an antibiotic would cure it. But when my normally personality-less dermatologist sat down beside me, put his hand on my arm and said, “You are so young and pretty. I am so sorry,” I knew I was wrong on both counts.
At the time the plague descended, I was a trainer for a mid-sized bank, which called for me to present in front of people on a regular basis. I was also getting married soon… that special time in a girl’s life when you prepare for that walk down the runway that church folks call an aisle.

The Doggie Fountain, or Koolinater, connects to a standard water hose
-
When a dog steps on the paddle it sprays a jet of water into the pet’s face
-
The Mini Mister humidifier fits onto a water bottle and sprays cool vapour
-
It’s small enough to be used in a car, office or bedroom for up to 8 hours
Never mind heat wave, how’s this for a brain wave: an Illinois-based design company has created a paw-activated water fountain for dogs.
The Doggie Fountain, dubbed Koolinator, attaches to a standard garden hose and provides thirsty pets with a supply of fresh running water to help them keep cool in hot weather.
It can also be used in place of a water bowl to make sure your pets are not left without a drink when you’re at work, especially with the hot temperatures set to continue.

Authorities arrested an Indiana doctor Monday on suspicion of carrying out two attacks in Omaha over the past five years in which four people were killed who had ties to a local university medical school that fired him in 2001.
Dr. Anthony Garcia, who now lives in Terre Haute, Ind., was arrested by Illinois State Police during a traffic stop Monday in Union County, which is in the south of the state near Illinois’ borders with Indiana and Missouri, Omaha Police Chief Todd Schmaderer said. Officers said he appeared to be intoxicated when they arrested him that he had a .45-caliber handgun with him.
Garcia, 40, was being held in Illinois on suspicion of four counts of first-degree murder and four counts of using a weapon to commit a felony, Schmaderer said. An Illinois State Police official declined to discuss details of Garcia’s arrest or detention, and said any questions should go to Omaha police.

Fish is among the healthiest foods you can eat. It’s filled with good fats and protein, and has been shown to fight heart disease, boost brain health, and more.
Here’s the catch: You can easily cancel out these health benefits if the fish you eat is contaminated with mercury, antibiotics, or harmful chemicals like PCBs. Use this quick-and-dirty guide to help you steer clear of suspect species that carry higher-than-average health risks.

If you paid a bribe sometime in the last year, you are not alone. According to a new survey by corruption watchdog Transparency International, more than a quarter of people worldwide paid a bribe when dealing with public services in the past 12 months.
Transparency International’s 2013 Global Corruption Barometer is based on interviews with 114,270 people in 107 countries. It uses a public opinion survey to estimate the prevalence of corruption across national institutions worldwide.
The report concludes that although bribery is a global problem, it is not an equally distributed one.
According to the report, less than 5 percent of respondents in 16 countries admitted to giving bribes, while more than half of the people surveyed in 14 other countries reported paying off officials. Of those 14 countries, 11 are located in Africa. They include post-Gaddafi Libya, where 62 percent of respondents reported having paid up, and Liberia, where an astonishing 75 percent slipped money to officials. In Kenya, where legislators recently tried to raise their salary to 84 times that of the average Kenyan, 70 percent of those surveyed reported giving bribes.

While most college students are not having casual sex, one-night stands are correlated with anxiety, a new study has found.
The study, titled “Risky Business,” was released in June in the “The Journal of Sex Research.” It was led by Dr. Melina M. Bersamin of California State University, Sacramento, and surveyed 3,907 heterosexual college students, ages 18 to 25, from 30 different colleges. “Casual sex” was defined in the study as intercourse with someone the student had known for less than a week.
Researchers found that men were twice as likely as women to report casual sex, although only 11 percent of those surveyed overall had such an encounter. And despite the disparity between men and women engaging in casual sex, the study found a correlation between hooking up and emotional problems that did not discriminate by gender.

Katie Couric featured a 12-year-old Lage Grigsby , who came face to face with death during the massive tornado that hit Joplin, Missouri in 2011. His father explains Lage was in such critical condition, emergency crews took him to the morgue instead of the hospital. Lage got a second chance when a nurse walked by and heard him screaming. Doctors were able to successfully perform surgery on his brain. While the road to recovery has been long for Lage, he has learned how to walk and talk again.

According to a recently published study, one of the reasons men perform oral sex on female partners may be to minimize the risk of infidelity.
The study, published late last month in the Journal of Evolutionary Psychology, sought to discover why men perform oral sex on women, since the act does not lead directly to reproduction.
After surveying 243 adult men in heterosexual relationships, the researchers deduced that cunnilingus is used to discourage women from cheating, a theory the authors refer to as a “mate-retention strategy.”
The research suggests that men perform oral sex on their female partners in order “to minimize the risk of their partner’s infidelity by increasing her relationship satisfaction.”
The study has garnered some negative reactions across the web: An article on The Gloss wondered why the researchers aren’t “questioning the evolutionary advantage of oral sex for men? Isn’t that purposeless, too?” And Handbag.com writer Kate Gilbert pointed out that perhaps men perform oral sex because it’s pleasurable: “Sorry science guys — sometimes things are just meant for fun.”
