People with A blood are thought to be creative and stubborn, for example, while those with O are confident and self-centered.

We all have thousands of taste buds in our lips, although the amount varies by individual. Between 2000 and 10,000 is the typical range. Taste buds can also be located on the roof and walls of your mouth, throat, and esophagus, in addition to your tongue. Experts think that as you get older, your taste receptors get less sensitive, which may explain why foods you disliked as a youngster become more appealing to you as an adult.

Chia seeds have been a staple in Native American and Mexican diets for hundreds of years, despite the fact that they only recently seem to have achieved appeal in American diets. They were employed in the preparation of porridge, bread, and medicines.

Despite having fewer than 1,000 recognized citizens, the Vatican has the highest crime rate of any country in the world. However, this is not because it has a higher crime rate than other countries, but because it has a higher crime rate per population. These crimes are typically committed by the millions of visitors that pass through the region. Shoplifting, purse snatching, and pickpocketing are the most prevalent crimes, and the official Vatican tourism website advises guests to remain vigilant at all times.

In his Poor Richard's Almanac, founding father Benjamin Franklin got one over on rival Titan Leeds, also an almanac writer, by "predicting" the exact date and time of his death.

A Bloodhound's sense of scent is so acute and exact that it may be used as evidence in court. Their scent membranes allow dogs to distinguish odours at least a thousand times better than humans.

They have one of the strongest feet among all the birds, which they use to clench branches for a long period. The strong feet even allow these birds to hang upside down from the branches.

While the British forbade lipstick, it remained a popular option in the good old USA, or more correctly, the American colonies. Colonial ladies altered the color of their lips by smearing red ribbons on them and sipping lemons. One colonial-era whisky company even advertised that it would turn consumers' lips crimson. They were probably mixing up the lips with the nose and Gin Blossoms. The original first lady, Martha Washington, had her own formula for lip rouge. She combined hog's lard with spermaceti discovered in whale intestines. That sounds really revolting!

We know people who thrived in high school but fell apart in college when the workload was higher and they had to wash their own laundry, and people who were huge successes when they were single, but struggled mightily when they had to get their kids out of the house in the morning as well as themselves.

Water is vital for mosquitoes because they lay their eggs, which hatch into larvae known as wigglers. These wigglers feed on organic materials in stagnant water and breathe oxygen from the surface. These wigglers eventually mature into pupae that do not feed and are partially enveloped in cocoons. These pupae mature into adult mosquitos after a few days. Before a mosquito can fly, it must go through this process for ten days. Use a mosquito repellent spray or a roll-on insect repellent.

Indie dogs have a far higher level of immunity than dogs of other breeds, and they may have the finest gene pool for Indian circumstances. Indian pariah dogs are the least likely to contract the illnesses that the pedigree frequently succumb to since they have developed through the generations to suit the conditions of the subcontinent.
