When we finally arrived, the chaffeur (driver) escorted my younger sister, Laila and me up to my father's suite. As usual he was hiding behind the door and waiting to scare us. We exchanged many hugs as we could possibly give in one day. My father took a good look at us, then sat me on his lap and said something I'll never forget. He looked at me straight in the eyes and said 'Hana, every valuable thing that God made in the world is covered and hard to get to. Where do you find diamonds, pearls and gold? Deep down in the ground, covered and protected. You've got to work hard to get them.' He looked at me with serious eyes and said 'Your body is sacred. You're far more Precious than diamond & pearls and you should be covered too.'

Paul Walker’s Cause Of Death Revealed!

Since the tragic death of Paul Walker many have speculated the initial cause of his death. Now it’s being reported that the L.A. County Coroner’s Office has completed their examination via dental records for both Walker, and his friend, Roger Rodas, who was driving the 2005 Porsche Carrera GT.

The L.A. County Coroner’s Office has released a statement in regards to the tragic crash that took the lives of actor Paul Walker, and his friend, Roger Rodas. Walker, 40, passed away due to a “combination of traumatic and thermal injuries.”

According to the statement, Walker did not die by the impact of the crash, and is believed to have been alive for a few seconds. It’s said that ultimately the fire caused by the impact was the cause of death. In the case of Roger Rodas, 38, the driver died on impact from severe injuries, and fire was not listed as a factor in his death.

It’s said that toxicology results will not be in for the two men until six to eight weeks, although the Medical Examiner has ruled that the deaths of Walker and his friend were accidental.

As for the event surrounding the accident, the two men were winding down after a charity event for Walker’s ROWW organization when they decided to take the red 2005 Porsche Carrera GT out for a test drive. According to Walker and Rodas’ mutual friend, Jim Torp, the two were not drag racing and were testing out a problem with the car that the two were trying to diagnose.

Shortly they left the garage, tragedy struck. According to Torp, smoke was visible from Always Evolving Performance Motors, which was the shop Rodas owned, and is around the corner from the crash site. Although many of their friends tried to get them out of the car, there was nothing that could be done. In addition, initial reports that said Walker’s 15-year-old daughter Meadow was on site at the time are false.

Paul Walker’s family has made an official statement on his public Facebook that has amassed to 12 million likes:

“Paul Walker’s family appreciates the outpouring of love and goodwill from his many fans and friends. They have asked, in lieu of flowers or other gifts, that donations please be made to Paul’s charity Reach Out Worldwide (ROWW). Donations can easily be made through their website at http://www.ROWW.org/.”

CHICKEN WINGS- Its Dangerous!

Be A Giver

A woman baked cake for members of her family and an extra one for a hungry passerby. She kept the extra cake on the window sill, for whosoever would take it away. Every day, a hunchback came and took away the cake. Instead of expressing gratitude, he muttered the following words as he went his way: “The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” This went on, day after day. Every day, the hunchback came, picked up the cake and uttered the words: “The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” The woman felt irritated. “Not a word of gratitude,” she said to herself… “Everyday this hunchback utters this jingle! What does he mean?” One day, exasperated, she decided to do away with him. “I shall get rid of this hunchback,” she said. And what did she do? She added poison to the cake she prepared for him!

A very funny likeness has been made of a Floridian Church, when a photographer noticed that from a certain angle, it resembled a chicken!

Reactions from the congregation are varied. Some people are offended by the "disrespecting of the Lord's building", others find the good-natured teasing to be just that. Some have even said that the church should use the publicity to its advantage, selling T-shirts and other "Chicken Church" paraphernalia to raise funds.

Via The Huffington post, "The "Chicken Church" , also known as Church by the Sea in Madeira Beach and not to be confused with Church's Chicken , went viral when a photographer noticed that, from just the right angle, the structure's round windows look like eyes and its roofing tiles resemble wings and a beak. Tourists, reportedly by the hundreds, now line up to take pictures of the visage."

Some comments include: "My late husband and I were married in that church, as was my son many years later. It's truly a beautiful church inside and out, but I must admit that, from this angle at least, it does resemble a chicken. Just wish I'd noticed it before my husband died... it would have given him quite a laugh."

Bird arrested under suspicion of being a spy

An Egyptian man performed a citizen‘s arrest on the bird suspected to be a spy.

The Standard Digital reports the suspected 'winged infiltrator' was taken to the police station in Qena, after being captured.
The man grew paranoid when he spotted a small metal device attached to the bird, and felt it was his duty to detain it.
After inspection, the device turned out to be a wildlife tracking device, writes The Guardian.
Egypt has been plagued with violence and threats, along with the increasing fears of foreign spies and forces, which lead to the suspicions.
This is not the first time a bird was suspected of being a spy.
The Standard Digital reports a kestrel was detained in Turkey in July, after it was suspected of being an Israeli spy.

How important is penis size?

Authors from the Australian National University, Monash and La Trobe provide the most complete answer yet: the size of a flaccid penis can significantly affect how attractive a man's body is to women.
Writing in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (a journal commonly known by its initials as PNAS), Brian Mautz, Bob Wong, Richard Peters and Michael Jennions use a clever experimental manipulation of computer-generated imagery -- CGI -- to test the effects of variation in penis size relative to height and torso shape (shoulder width relative to waist width) on the attractiveness of male bodies to women.

While they found that torso shape was by far the most important determinant of attractiveness, penis size has about as

A reader wonders when—if ever—her boyfriend will finally break the "I love you" sound barrier.
"I've been with my boyfriend for 6 months. We spend a lot of time together (we see each other every night, at least) and regularly have deep talks about our lives," the reader writes in. "However, he still he hasn't said that he loves me and I'm starting to wonder. He's never introduced me to his family (who live out-of-state), but he's introduced me to all of his close friends as his girlfriend. He does show affection for me in different ways, but I can't tell if it's love or he's just a nice guy and knows how to treat a lady. How can I tell if a guy loves me? How do men show their love?"

5 Things To Know About Paul Walker's GF Jasmine Pilchard-Gosnell

Paul Walker was in love with . Get to know the girl behind the headlines.

The untimely passing of Paul Walker at age 40 in a car crash this past weekend sent the world reeling. The low-key actor kept his private life private, and now his longtime girlfriend Jasmine Pilchard-Gosnell, 23, has been thrust into the spotlight in the worst possible way. Here's what we know about the heartbroken beauty.

She's young. Very young.
When Walker was 33, he met Pilchard-Gosnell ... who was 16 at the time. But like Aaliyah and R. Kelly, Pilchard-Gosnell and Walker thought age ain't nothin' but a number—and he said his longtime love was the one.

Pilchard-Gosnell is a smart girl.
While she could have ridden Walker's coattails for fame and quick cash after sparking a romance with him when she was just 16, Pilchard-Gosnell instead opted to enroll in college in her hometown of Santa Barbara, maintaining her own independence and interests.

She's close with Walker's daughter, Meadow.
Pilchard-Gosnell reportedly took on a stepmother role to Walker's little girl, even though they only had an eight year age difference between them—and she reportedly broke the news of Walker's death to the teen. Walker's close friend, Jim Torp, said Pilchard-Gosnell collapsed upon hearing the news, but pulled herself together to help Meadow. "I believe she is the one who told Meadow about what happened, and when she found out she was hysterical and crying," Torp said. "It was just so sad. I tried to do everything I could to help them. Paul's girlfriend then took Meadow and drove her home. I don't know if they drove to crash site. I just know they were in so much anguish."

She was just Walker's type.
Pilchard-Gosnell was hardly ever spotted with makeup on, which is the kind of girl Walker says he loves. The actor once said, "I like low maintenance, natural, outdoor, shy girls." Considering their frequent trips to the beach and hikes, Walker and Pilchard-Gosnell were a perfect match!

She's relying on family to get her past Walker's passing.
"Paul was a really good guy and Jasmine is broken up by this," Pilchard-Gosnell's uncle revealed. "I went to Thanksgiving with him, played golf with him. They had their ups and downs but they were together and looking to spend a bright future together ... This is horrible news and unexpected. Her mother is with her and she is comforting her."

Our thoughts remain with Pilchard-Gosnell and Walker's loved ones during this tragic, unimaginably difficult time. Click here to donate to Paul Walker's charity, Reach Out Worldwide. http://www.yourtango.com
