While there can be many different causes of cardiac arrest (i.e. auto-erotic asphyxiation carried on past the appropriate moment, or\u2026let\u2019s say for arguments sake, a lemming like need to keep up with Charlie Sheen on the weekends), an MI can lead to one\u2019s ticker no longer ticking, which is bad; unless you really didn\u2019t like the person, then it could be good.\u00a0 It\u2019s all about looking on the bright side.<\/li>\n<li>The record for the most babies born to one woman is 69.\u00a0 While the woman\u2019s name is not known, she was the first wife of Feodor Vassilyev a peasant from Shuya, Russia who lived from 1707-1782.<\/li>\n<li>Mary was the most popular female baby name in the US from 1879-1946.\u00a0 It was finally beat by \u201cLinda\u201d in 1947.\u00a0 Linda held that position until 1953 when it was beat out by none other than Mary, which then held that spot until 1962 when it was supplanted by \u201cLisa\u201d.\u00a0 Since then, Mary has never regained the top spot.\u00a0 In the most recent complete year, 2010, Mary was the 109th most popular female baby name in the United States.<\/li>\n<li>Since \u201cLisa\u201d, the most popular female baby names were: Jennifer, Ashley, Jessica, Emily, Emma, and Isabella, the latter of which has held the top spot since 2009.\u00a0 Isabella first debuted in the top 5 in 2006, appearing at position 4, and steadily climbed from there to number 1, no doubt initially spurred on by the 2005 release of \u201c<a title=\"Twilight\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/031613290X\/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=vaccafoedamedia-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=217145&amp;creative=399353&amp;creativeASIN=031613290X\" target=\"_blank\">Twilight<\/a>\u201d with the main character being Isabella Swan.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><a href='http:\/\/www.todayifoundout.com' title='Interesting Facts'>Today I Found Out<\/a> has teamed up with Destin from SmarterEveryDay to show some his awesome videos here.
