On 16 March 2012, Sachin Tendulkar cemented his legacy as one of cricket’s most complete batters by reaching an exclusive landmark. Widely regarded as the sport’s greatest-ever batter, the Master Blaster is also cricket’s all-time leading scorer.
In the twilight phase of his career, Tendulkar registered a jaw-dropping feat previously deemed near-impossible. He scored his 100th international century while competing in the 2012 Asia Cup.
A
38-year-old Tendukar smashed 114 runs when India faced Bangladesh in the
tournament’s group stage on this day in 2012. It was his 49th ODI
century and, interestingly, only his first against Bangladesh in the 50-over
format. Despite his 114 runs,
India lost as Bangladesh chased the target.
Lips
Appreciation Day is observed on
16 March every year. It’s the only day in the year dedicated to appreciating
the lips — an attractive part of the face. Did you know that lips come in
different shapes, structures, and sizes? Not only do they protect our teeth
from the elements, but the lips also form an important part of our smiles,
pouts, smacks, and other facial expressions. That’s not all, lips are also
essential in eating and drinking. On Lips Appreciation Day, don’t forget to
show your lips some appreciation and good care lips to make them more
attractive.
The History of Lips Appreciation Day
Thomas and Ruth Roy of Wellcat Holiday established Lips Appreciation Day. Although the intention behind the establishment of this day is self-evident—to acknowledge the beauty of the lips as a facial feature—the exact year in which this appreciation day was initially observed is unknown.
The lips, which are evident on the faces of many mammals, including humans, are an essential component of the visage. The human lips are the two delicate, fleshy pleats that encircle the mouth and provide coverage for the teeth. They can be thin, thick, pouty, or plump. In addition to functioning for feeding, sucking, whistling, and the articulation of speech and sound, the lips are inherently mobile. The lips, being an especially sensitive and pinkish sensory organ in humans, are fundamental components of facial expressions such as pouting, grimacing, beaming, and grunting. The lips, by their flexibility, are also employed for intimate and erogenous activities such as kissing.
The cellular structure of the
skin on the lips consists of three to five layers and is notably more delicate
than the skin of the rest of the face. Due to the absence of a protective
barrier present on the face as a whole, the lips become more susceptible to
chapping and dryness, particularly in extremely hot temperatures. Due to their
greater susceptibility, the lips may experience a tenfold reduction in
hydration loss compared to all other facial areas. Maintaining the lips
hydrated and alluring necessitates the application of extraordinary, meticulous
attention to detail. There are currently a plethora of aesthetic products
available for lip care and balm protection. Lipsticks, lip balms, and
moisturizing lotions are a few examples.
On March 15, 1493, Italian explorer Christopher Columbus arrived back in the Spanish harbour of Palos de la Frontera, two months after concluding his first voyage to the Western Hemisphere.
On his arrival back in Spain,
Christopher Columbus immediately wrote a letter announcing his discoveries to
King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella, who had helped finance his trip. The letter
was written in Spanish and sent to Rome, where it was printed in Latin by
Stephan Plannck. Plannck mistakenly left Queen Isabella’s name out of the
pamphlet’s introduction but quickly realized his error and reprinted the
pamphlet a few days later.
Pi Day is an annual celebration of the mathematical constant π (pi). Pi Day is observed on March 14 (the 3rd month) since 3, 1, and 4 are the first three significant figures of π, and was first celebrated in the United States. It was founded in 1988 by Larry Shaw, an employee of a science museum in San Francisco, the Exploratorium. Celebrations often involve eating pie or holding pi recitation competitions. In 2009, the United States House of Representatives supported the designation of Pi Day. UNESCO’s 40th General Conference designated Pi Day as the International Day of Mathematics in November 2019.
Other dates
when people celebrate pi include Pi Approximation Day on July 22 (22/7 in
the day/month format, an approximation of π) and
June 28 (6.28, an approximation of 2π or tau).
