The girl slept for 9 years and woke up as a young woman.
Ellen Sadler has been sleeping since she was 11 years old and when she woke up she was 20 years old. “Sleeping Beauty” is a world-famous fairy tale that has been around for hundreds of years and we all know it is fiction and imagination. The fact that humans can sleep for years without being in a vegetative state has never been recognized by modern medicine, even though there have been similar examples.

Profanity in Everyday Life: What It Says About a Person
Emotional Release One of the primary functions of swearing is emotional release. Research shows that people who swear often use profanity as a way to cope with strong emotions such as anger, frustration, pain, or even joy. Swearing can act as a “vent” through which a person releases built-up stress. When someone lacks other means to express their feelings, profanity becomes a quick and accessible tool for tension relief.

10 facts about the use of Russian profanity in everyday life
Expression of Emotions and Stress Relief: In everyday life, profanity is often used to express strong emotions such as anger, irritation, or pain. For example, a person might swear if they accidentally bump into a table or drop something heavy. Russian profanity serves as a kind of “valve” for letting off steam, allowing people to instantly express negative feelings and reduce stress levels. This is especially noticeable in everyday situations, where people often face minor annoyances and irritants. For instance, when something doesn’t work on the first try or when a device fails to function, profanity might be the initial reaction. Not all words used are necessarily harsh; often, they are softened to fit the context or setting. In everyday life, using profanity as a way to express emotions has become almost a norm, especially among close friends and family, where there is no fear of judgment for using foul language. Thus, profanity serves as an emotional “shout,” allowing people to express their inner state and not keep negative emotions bottled up.

The Story About How an Eye Doctor made $5 Billion Dollars
If you happened to wander through Miami Beach, Florida, and encountered an older man donning a red fedora and wire-rimmed glasses, you might dismiss him as an ordinary individual, someone you’d soon forget once he was out of sight. Yet, this seemingly unremarkable man is Herbert Wertheim, an individual whose journey from modest beginnings to billions of dollars is nothing short of extraordinary. Wertheim's story is a compelling narrative of resilience and ingenuity, illustrating how someone with a background as humble as his can rise to immense financial success. Born to Jewish immigrants who fled the perils of Nazi Germany, Wertheim's early years were marked by hardship and struggle. His parents settled in Philadelphia before relocating to Hollywood, Florida, where they established a small bakery. Living in a modest apartment above their business, Wertheim faced early academic difficulties due to undiagnosed dyslexia, a condition that was poorly understood at the time. This learning challenge led to a troubled school experience, where he often faced harsh judgments and was labeled as 'dumb,' an experience he recounted with painful clarity in a 2019 interview with Forbes.
