Blogger Joe. My. God. quotes Brandon Morgan, the Marine in the photo, as saying:
To everyone who has responded in a positive way. My partner and I want to say thank you. Dalan, the giant in the photo, can't believe how many shares and likes we have gotten on this. We didn't do this to get famous,or something like that we did this cause after 3 deployments and four years knowing each other, we finally told each other how we felt. As for the haters, let em hate...to quote Kat Williams, everyone needs haters, so let them hate. We are the happiest we have ever been and as for the whole PDA and kissing slash hugging in uniform...it was a homecoming, if the Sergeants Major, Captains, Majors, and Colonels around us didn't care...then why do you care what these random people have to say? In summation thank you for your love and support. I received a lot of friend requests off this. I don't just accept requests so if your request was because of this post message me and let me know. Goodnight all, and Semper Fi.

Most of you have seen or heard that the person with short term memory problem. But there is an example in reality too.
A 19-year-old girl in
Britain has no past. She suffers from a rare condition that wipes out her
memories leaving her at the mercy of her family to even remember if she has had
her breakfast.
Susac Syndrome is a rare
disease and till date only about 250 cases have been reported in the whole
world. This medical condition affects the person so much that they can't
remember what they did yesterday.

| 19 year old girl with short term memory |
Doctors expect the
teenager to improve in another five years but they caution that any hearing or
sight loss during the period would be permanent.
Till a year ago, she was
a performing art student who was able to recall the entire script of 'We Will
Rock You' and now she can't even remember her beloved grandmother's funeral
which took place last year. She has to be constantly reminded that two of her
friends are pregnant and hence they are gaining weight.
She is totally dependent
on her family and can barely go out on her own as her sense of balance is also
being affected. She has already had to give up college and more heartbreak soon
follow as she might have to give up her job at a diner.
What could be more natural than having a barbecue
party on a volcano? Apart from the obvious health and safety hazards, that is.
But such things are not a concern at the El Diablo restaurant, where chefs
actually cook food over the heat produced by an active volcano.

Located on a Spanish island called Lanzarote,
northwest of Morocco, El Diablo is a unique restaurant where the chefs
have access to a volcano of their own. Of course, it isn’t like a
lava-spewing mountain, because if that were the case there would be no question
of leisurely eating. No, this volcano is more like a hole in the ground,
through which volcanic heat erupts from the deeps of the Earth.

And it is precisely this heat that the creators of
El Diablo have taken advantage of. Prior to its existence, visitors to the
volcanic area were served with a plate of sardines and wine. However, in 1970,
Cesar Manrique decided to create a formal restaurant in the area. Thus, with
the help of architects Eduardo Caceres and Jesus Soto, a giant grill was built
on the ground that makes use of the immense heat below the Earth’s surface. And
that’s how El Diablo was born. The grill is used to prepare several dishes of
meat and fish that are served at the restaurant.

The construction, of course, wasn’t easy. All that
heat just beneath the surface meant that digging foundation trenches was
impossible. So instead they set down nine layers of basalt rock, in order to
provide a foundation for the structure. Traditional Canarian food is now served
at the restaurant, but food is only one of the attractions the place provides.
Many people make it a point to visit the volcano-restaurant for the stunning
surroundings and view that it provides. The landscape of the island, although
barren, is breathtaking to look at. The best time to visit is during sunset,
when the fading light creates spectacular effects over the sands of the
volcanoes.
Tributes have been paid at the funeral of an 'inspirational' woman who died after suffering an extremely rare genetic condition that caused premature ageing.
Adrienne Greenway, 25, from Dover, passed away earlier this month from pneumonia, with her funeral taking place earlier this week.
Mourners in attendance included Hollywood stars Jude Law and Sienna Miller, who stunned friends and family at St John's Church in Coleford by turning up to say goodbye.
Adrienne suffered from what doctors thought was a premature ageing disease. Sufferers rarely outlive their teens.
The vibrant young woman had won a string of celebrity admirers for her attitude and charity work, including Stella McCartney - who even designed a dress for her.
ich was held as a celebration of her life. She was buried in Clearwell before relatives held a wake at a nearby pub.
Allison added: 'She was an inspiration. She inspired everyone she met, she was a beautiful girl.
'Time and time again the doctors had said "this is it, it's time to go now" and she had always come through.
'But she knew and we knew that this time was different. She understood she had a better place to go to.
'It was exactly how she wanted it, she put her head down and curled up with her family there with her."
'She had an incredible life, she has travelled the world but she also loved that she had "normal" friends and was able to go to "normal" school.
'She always put other people first and was conscious of those worse off than her.'
Adrienne leaves two sisters, Hayley and Lindsay, mother Allison and stepfather Jim.

A baby believed to be the third smallest birth-weight infant ever to survive left County-USC Medical Center Friday almost five months after her premature birth.
Melinda Star Guido weighed only 9 1/2 ounces when she was born 16 weeks premature.
She was the second smallest baby to survive in the U.S., and the third smallest in the world.
Melinda was so tiny she could fit into the palm of her doctor's hand.
Now, Melinda weighs 4 1/2 pounds and has made enough progress to be discharged, doctors said.
During her pregnancy, Melinda's mother, 22-year-old Haydee Ibarra suffered from high blood pressure.
The decision was made to deliver Melinda by caesarian section when a problem developed with the placenta, which gives the fetus nutrition, blood and oxygen.
Most babies her size do not survive, doctors said, but Melinda defied the odds.
She spent the first months of her life inside an incubator in the neonatal intensive care unit.
A machine helped her breathe, and she got her nutrition through a feeding tube.
The hospital staff says it will keep a close eye on Melinda for the next six years.
Children born extremely premature can suffer developmental delays and other problems, including blindness or deafness, according to doctors.
But for now, Melinda is doing very well.
The doctor estimated that the cost of medical care for the infant has run between $500,000 and $700,000 Results of a brain scan on Melinda two weeks ago looked normal, and Ramanathan said his team was "cautiously optimistic about how the baby is going to do" over time.
The smallest surviving baby ever born is listed as Rumaisa Rahman, who in 2004 was born in Illinois weighing only 9.2 ounces, according to the University of Iowa Children's Hospital Tiniest Babies Registry.

ArLynn Presser is a 51-year-old woman who lives in Winnetka, Illinois. It’s normal for ArLynn to stay indoors all the time. In fact, for most of her adult life, she hardly ever left the confines of her home, and most certainly did not venture out of her home town. Her career as a writer ensured that she could spend her life indoors and still get things done. If this sounds strange to you, you must know that ArLynn suffers from agoraphobia – the fear of crowded places or enclosed public spaces.
Like most introverts, ArLynn interacts with people online and she has 325 friends she chats with on Facebook. Last year, she went and did something that no one could have ever expected. On 31st of Dec, 2010, she made a resolution to meet all 325 of her Facebook friends in person, the following year. She wrote a blog post about it and then set about achieving her goal. She called her project “Face to Facebook”. For a person who was terrified of flying and could never get on a plane before, this was certainly a daunting task. In the end, she did a great job, traveling over 13 countries and taking over 39 flights. By the end of 2011, she had met 292 friends, about 90% of what she had intended to. ArLynn had been to Taiwan, Korea, Philippines, Dubai, Italy, Malaysia, Ireland, England, Germany and four other countries.
Despite all the problems she faced, ArLynn did seem to have some wonderful moments. One of her friends taught her how to open a champagne bottle with a sabre. She also learned opera singing, trained to be a bodyguard, rode in a motorcycle sidecar, took Zumba lessons and climbed a mountain in California – all with her Facebook friends. Quite a year, I must say! Now her incredible experience has inspired a documentary called “Face to Facebook“, about Facebook, anxiety, and the power of social media to inspire great personal change.
