POWERFUL PUMP-HEART

In under a minute, your heart can pump blood to every cell in your body. And over the course of a day, about 100,000 heart beats shuttle 2,000 gallons of oxygen-rich blood many times through about 60,000 miles of branching blood vessels that link together the cells of our organs and body parts. That's a hefty job for a fist-sized muscle.

TOP 10 FACTS

These are the top 10 facts (or myths?) that nobody needs to know but that everybody wants to know:

• The most common name in the world is Mohammed. (Looking for an original name? Well, at least now you know which name to avoid.)

• Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour. (Wanna try?)

• American astronauts must be less than 6 feet tall. (No NASA for tall guys, sorry.)

• A Las Vegas hospital suspended workers for betting on when patients would die. (Seems like it was taken from an episode of some doctor’s TV drama...maybe it was.)

• Alexander Graham Bell never telephoned his wife or mother. They both were deaf. (Pretty ironic huh?)

• Guinness book of records holds the record for being the book most often stolen from public libraries. (Why would anyone want to keep that book at home?)

• The most collect calls are made on Father's Day. (That's what I call unconditional love.)

• No piece of paper can be folded more than 7 times. (You're looking for a sheet of paper, I know.)

• If you toss a penny 10,000 times, it will not be heads 5000 times but only 4950. The head picture weighs more, so it ends up on the bottom. (Now you know what to choose when playing heads or tails)

• In ancient Egypt they paid their taxes in honey. (Let’s bring back old traditions!)
