The body is the hero


The total blood volume in our body circulates once every 13 seconds; 6o quarts of blood pass to the brain and the kidneys per hour, and return to the heart at the same rate. Those tremendous volumes give us the ability to run, to keep enough oxygen and sugar moving to our legs and arms so that our muscles can move even after hours of continuous effort. But the price we have to pay for all this quickness and power is a severe one. A bacterium from a cut in your finger can reach your brain in a little over four seconds. A pneumococcus in your lungs can reach the bones of your arms in three seconds.

The evolution of the human




THE EVOLUTION OF THE HUMAN
The universe is constructed from a multitude of various materials. It is dynamic in shape due to a multitude of various processes and interactions between these materials. To the human, however, in their need to establish their place and purpose in the universe, the most important material is biological and the most important process is evolution, far it is only here that the human can learn to understand themselves, an understanding that is vital to their survival.
Wise men, psychologists, philosophers and theologians suggest some ideas about the human, but the truth about the human may be found only through factual knowledge. The human is what evolution made them.

Billionaire (feat. Bruno Mars) Travie McCoy


I wanna be a billionaire so freaking bad
Buy all of the things I never had
I wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine
Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen

[Chorus]
Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights
A different city every night oh
I swear the world better prepare
For when I'm a billionaire

[Travis "Travie" McCoy]
Yeah I would have a show like Oprah
I would be the host of everyday of Christmas
Give Travie a wish list
I'd probably pull an Angelina and Brad Pitt
And adopt a bunch of babies that ain't never had shit
Give away a few Mercedes like here lady have this
And last but not least grant somebody their last wish
It's been a couple months since I've single
So you can call me Travie Claus minus the Ho Ho
Get it, hehe, I'd probably visit where Katrina hit
And damn sure do a lot more than FEMA did
Yeah can't forget about me stupid
Everywhere I go Imma have my own theme music

[Chorus]
Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights
A different city every night oh
I swear the world better prepare
for when I'm a billionaire
oh oooh oh oooh for when I'm a Billionaire
oh oooh oh oooh for when I'm a Billionaire

[Travis "Travie" McCoy]
I'll be playing basketball with the President
Dunking on his delegates
Then I'll compliment him on his political etiquette
Toss a couple milli in the air just for the heck of it
But keep the fives, twentys, tens, and bens completely
separate
And yeah I'll be in a whole new tax bracket
We in recession but let me take a crack at it
I'll probably take whatever's left and just split it
up
So everybody that I love can have a couple bucks
And not a single tummy around me would know what
hungry was
Eating good sleeping soundly
I know we all have a similar dream
Go in your pocket pull out your wallet
And put it in the air and sing

[Bruno Mars]
I wanna be a billionaire so freaking bad
Buy all of the things I never had
Uh, I wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine
Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen

[Chorus]
I wanna be a billionaire so freaking bad!
