Coffee connoisseurs may not want to believe it, but it's true. If you're feeling a little peckish in the afternoon, consider eating an apple instead of buying a cup of coffee. Eating apples is a great (and healthy) way to stay energised throughout the day because of their high carbohydrate, fibre, vitamin C, and mineral content. The world's most despised vegetable is also one of the healthiest.

Do you believe The Walking Dead is a work of fiction? It is, but the government wants to be ready for a real-life version in any case. In 2011, the 31-page Counter-Zombie Dominance Plan, or CONPLAN 8888-11, was created. And, lest you think it's strange bureaucratic humour, the first sentence says, "This plan was not truly created as a joke."

The Khajuraho temple complex is split into three sections: Western, Eastern, and Southern.

Around the 15th century, the first toothbrush with bristles arrived on the scene in China. Bamboo sticks were outfitted with pig/boar hair, which had a scouring effect and quickly became more popular than ordinary chew sticks. Boar bristle toothbrushes were brought to Europe during the 17th century. Finding the boar bristles too abrasive, the Europeans began using horsehair instead, and some of the more affluent folks had special badger hair toothbrushes created for them. Bristled toothbrushes, on the other hand, were here to stay. Later types of bristles brushes would be constructed of bone, ivory, or other woods.

The Sushruta Samhita, written in the sixth century BC, comprises 184 chapters that describe 1,120 ailments, 700 therapeutic plants, 64 mineral preparations, and 57 animal preparations. Its creator, Sushruta, is also regarded as the first human to conduct medical surgery on humans. The book also contains extensive information on embryology and human anatomy, directions for venesection, patient placement for each vein, and the preservation of essential tissues (marma). The oldest recorded evidence (9000 years) for the drilling of a living person's human teeth was discovered in Mehrgarh, coupled with pieces of evidence of orthopedic surgery.

Because we all have different skin types, there are different moisturizers that work for everyone. If you have sensitive skin, avoid using moisturizers that include scent. Avoid products with added oils and other compounds that are known to clog pores if you have oily skin.

The iguana has a third eye called the parietal eye. This pale-colored eye is positioned on the top of the head. It cannot distinguish between forms or colours, but it can detect light and movement. This allows the iguana to detect predatory birds from above.

When you find your dog eating on something he shouldn't, he averts his gaze and assumes a submissive stance. That indicates he recognizes his error and expresses regret, correct? Scientists believe it's unlikely. It's more likely that the behaviors that owners identify with a dog's remorse are a reaction to being reprimanded. They just do not consider their violation as thoroughly as you do.

The Brahmaputra is considered to be among the most majestic rivers in the world. The Brahmaputra enters India in the state of Arunachal Pradesh, where it is called Siang. It makes a very rapid descent from its original height in Tibet, and finally appears in the plains, where it is called Dihang. It flows for about 35 km (22 mi) and is joined by the Dibang River and the Lohit River at the head of the Assam Valley. Below the Lohit, the river is called Brahmaputra, enters the state of Assam, and becomes very wide—as wide as 10 km (6 mi) in parts of Assam.

Australia played South Africa in a Test match in Melbourne in 1952. South Africa appeared untested and poor, to begin with, with only one victory in their previous ten test matches. Despite the disadvantage, South Africa scored 370 runs and took 13 wickets. It could go down as one of the biggest test cricket upsets ever.

Over 2,000 tonnes of unexploded bombs are discovered every year, even more than 70 years after World War II. To ensure that the earth is free of any weapons, specialists must certify it before construction companies start digging for a new project. Furthermore, the finding of these bombs is no little matter. In 2013, when a 4,000-pound Blockbuster bomb was found in Dortmund, western Germany, more than 20,000 people were forced to flee their homes. It could destroy an entire city block if it exploded. Since the end of World War II, Germany has enjoyed peace, yet their bomb squad is one of the busiest in the world.

Shells left over during lobster processing are typically discarded in landfills. A University of Maine researcher designed golf balls with a core made of lobster shells in an effort to make them valuable and keep the money in the lobster industry. They're also biodegradable, making them ideal for golfing on cruise ships or on courses near bodies of water.

The love partnerships revealed in the story's epilogue were one of the most contentious aspects of the Harry Potter series' ending. Rowling chose Ron and Hermione in a controversial choice, despite many fans' desire to see Harry and Hermione get their happily ever after. It almost goes without saying that Rowling regrets matching Harry with Ginny Weasley, believing that Harry and Hermione should have ended up together. Rowling confessed in an interview with The Sunday Times that these narrative decisions were "chosen for very personal reasons, not for grounds of veracity."

Nitrocellulose, also known as guncotton, is the main ingredient in regular nail polish. It's made of plant fibre and is what causes TNT to explode. (Don't worry; it's also found in ping pong balls.) Ethyl acetate is used to dissolve the nitrocellulose. When you apply the nail polish to your nail, the solvent evaporates, leaving the nitrocellulose to dry into a solid (and pretty!) film.

Every second, around 28 million litres (700,000 gallons) of water flow down Niagara Falls. It is believed to be the fastest-moving waterfall in the world. With a height of 188 feet (57 meters) and a depth of 170 feet (52 meters), Horseshoe Falls is the tallest waterfall. Glacier action caused Niagara Falls to develop some 12,000 years ago.

The pear-shaped cashew apple produces cashew nuts. The color of this long fleshy stalk can range from brown to yellow to crimson. The cashew apple is a pseudo-fruit or fake fruit, which implies that the flesh of the fruit is formed from portions of the flower other than the ovaries, such as the base or receptacle. Cashew apple juice is sometimes added to tropical fruit beverages or distilled into liquor.

Your spine is extremely adaptable! It could be bent to create 2/3 of a full circle if disconnected from the body.

If you notice yourself becoming more upbeat during the warmer months, you are not alone. For a 2011 study published in the journal Science, researchers examined the tweets of 2.4 million people from around the world over a two-year period. They discovered that when the change in daylight was positive (i.e., as the summer solstice approached), users tweeted considerably happier tweets than when the change in daylight was negative (i.e., as the winter solstice approached).
