noosphere 

Noosphere
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The noosphere can be seen as the "sphere of human thought" being derived from the Greek 'nous' meaning 'mind' in the style of 'atmosphere' and 'biosphere'. Just as the biosphere is composed of all the organisms on Earth and their interactions, the noosphere is composed of all the interacting minds and memes on Earth. The word is also sometimes used to refer to a transhuman consciousness arising from all these interactions - which those who have read Teilhard de Chardin sometimes refer to as the Omega Point, and consider the goal of history.

History of this expression:

E. LeRoy's Les origines humaines et l'evolution de l'intelligence (1928)

Vladimir I. Vernadsky (1863-1945)

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955)

Negin&Noosheen 

Compound word used to define services performed by prostitutes for money.
Negin, derived from the Italian word 'kneegiv' meaning 'Kneeling'.
Noosheen, from the Greek 'poo-sheen' meaning 'back door'.
The crack addict stood on the corner offering to take all cummers in the Negin&Noosheen for $20.

"Mommy, look. That hooker has a runny nose". "No dear, she's just full from doing too much Negin&Noosheen".

The drunken hooker kept getting confused. She would always fart after Negin and spit after Noosheen.

Stupid hooker!
