A man in the coffee beans, can you find him?

face hidden in the coffee beans


The "illusion" is that this is just a picture of coffee beans; but it is not.

Can you find a man's face among the beans?

Some say that if you find the man in 3 seconds or less, the right half of your brain may be more well developed than most. (I found him immediately!)

PS: This is not a trick. A man's face is really hidden among the beans.

Study Finds Drinking Coffee Slows Brainpower In Stressful Situations.

You may not want your male colleagues to have coffee during an important meeting.
While drinking coffee improves women's brainpower in stressful situations, it impairs men's memories and slows their decision-making.
Men who had regular coffee took 20 seconds longer to complete puzzles than those who had decaffeinated coffee.
Women completed the same puzzles 100 seconds faster than if they had caffeine.

*so guys next time you have an affair and get caught, blame it on the coffee you drank which impaired your memory and slowed your decision making!

The study is in the journal of Applied Social Psychology.

Once again, the latest in establishing the TRUTH!


I am in no way a chemist.  However, I think I understand questionable plastic when hot 168 degree water is hurridly passed through it, might, just might, cause harm and have lasting harmful effects on one's body.

Continuing drama: Is the plastic used in Keurig K-Cups safe?

Plastics   by: Anonymous

Plastic #7 is predominately polycarbonate which harbors BPA. No way around it... NONE. Even worse is plastic #3 (dubbed the toxic plastic), which is polyvinyl chloride (the name sounds yummy doesn't it?), or our old friend PVC. The sometimes corrupt and always inept USFDA has said that long term exposure to DHEA (one of several plastizers used in it's production) can lead to: reduced body weight and bone mass; damage to liver and testes and cancer. YAAAAY! And to clarify Green Mountain makes billions not millions so they will tell you whatever they want to keep you buying their convenient but wholly mediocre coffee. That said great company, great idea, I own their stock (total hypocrite :-), go capitalism!
