Scientists just discovered a new body part!


You’d think that we’d know our human body pretty much head to toe 100% by now. Two Belgian scientists, however, proved us wrong. They recently discovered a new body part in the knee.

The newly discovered part is the knee’s anterolateral ligament. It had been speculated for years, as far back as 1879 but wasn’t found until this year.

The researchers studied 41 cadavers and found them in 97% of them. This is not just one more thing that you’ll have to remember in anatomy.

Surgeons say this helps explain why some people treated for an ACL injury still have problems. This discovery will help recovery from knee injuries.

optical illusion or busy Martians. Odd structures can be seen on Mars but scientists say they are Pareidolia: Seeing Faces in Unusual Places, but are they?

Have you locked your keys in the car?
Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday.
Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their mobile phone from your cell phone.

Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock.

Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you.

Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other ' remote ' for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk)...

“Love” in the sense of “no score” in tennis dates to 1792 and means “playing for love” or, in other words, playing for nothing.i Other scholars claim that "love" as a tennis score is a corruption of the French word for egg, "L'oeuf," because of the egg's resemblance to a zero.

Engagement rings are often worn on the fourth finger of the left hand because the ancient Greeks maintained that that finger contains the vena amoris, or the “vein of love,” that runs straight to the heart. The first recorded wedding rings appear in ancient Egypt, with the circle representing eternity as well as powerful sun and moon deities.
