Tunisia has a metro station located just outside of the capital. Everyone speaks about the metro, but don't be misled; it's essentially a light rail system. It indicates it won't go underground save for a few small tunnels and appears like a tram. The first line opened in 1985, while the latter two lines, lines 4 and 6, opened in 2008-2009. A metro ticket costs around 0.40 DT (0.10snt), and the metro is often easier to use than buses. Just be careful not to miss your stop and keep an eye on your valuables. I urge that travelers use taxes. When it comes to public transportation, it is the cheapest, fastest, and most comfortable option.

Termites are tenacious creatures that spend their entire lives maintaining the colony. They put in so much effort that they don't take any breaks.

Onions are related to garlic, leeks, chives, and scallions. While they do not all provide the same level of health benefits, they do provide comparable health benefits.

If you've ever fantasised about a DC and Marvel crossover, believe it or not, it's happened before, and it's likely to happen only once in a generation. Marvel and DC teamed up for an epic crossover battle in a collection of awesome comic issues in 1965. Throughout its eleven one-on-one battles, the series featured Thor vs Captain Marvel, Superman vs Hulk, Batman vs Captain America, and many more. Who came out on top? Sorry, DC fans, Marvel has usurped your throne.

Thanks to its microscopic budget and major success at the box office, the 2007 film Paranormal Activity, scored a return on investment of 19,758 percent, absolutely blowing away the next most profitable film (2015 horror film Gallows, with an ROI of 6,843 percent). It cost just $60,000 to make and another $400,000 or so to market, yet ultimately brought in more than $89 million.

In China, restoring virginity is both possible and popular. This plastic surgery is also known by a medical term: hymenorrhaphy.

The contemporary game began in Manipur, India's northeastern province, and was spread by British military officials in the mid-nineteenth century. It is now well-known all across the world. The current game of polo originated in Manipur, India, where it was called as 'Sagol Kangjei,' 'Kanjai- bazee,' or 'Pulu.' It was the anglicized version of the last, alluding to the wooden ball that was used in the sport's sluggish introduction to the west.

The other 97.7% are ethnically Chinese. This is because Taiwan was ruled by the Qing Dynasty for 200 years from 1683 to 1895. During this time, the locals were pushed out in the same way native Americans, Canadians, Australians and New Zealanders were by Europeans. This isn’t an upbeat Taiwan fact but it’s important to know.

Nowadays, there are just 500,000 indigenous people made up of eight different tribal groups. Sadly, their 26 native languages have become almost extinct.

Surgery is used to treat hernias. And mesh is typically used during surgery, which frequently raises questions from my patients. I explain to them that the mesh is not in contact with their internal organs because it is positioned outside of the belly cavity.

Many Buddhists, believe it or not, possess cars, houses, jewelry, and other items. "Because so many vocal Buddhists in America are practicing monks or wealthy individuals shunning consumerism to go meditate," says Wasserman, "we assume all Buddhists are like that." "Travel to a Buddhist country, and you will not see people abandoning the worldly world, but rather, like other religions, praying to win the lottery or be prosperous," he adds.

Pirates from The Bahamas had their flags custom-made by a sailmaker's widow who accepted brandy as payment, while Blackbeard had his own black flag with a skeleton with horns. The skeleton held an hourglass in one hand and a spear pointing to a heart dripping with three drops of blood in the other.

We noted before that butterflies enjoy eating, which is correct. What we didn't mention at the time is that their only source of food is fluids. In actuality, they simply lack the requisite chewing apparatus. Butterflies consume nectar or other liquid nutrition through their proboscis, which acts similarly to how you or I may use a straw.

The temple's Shiva linga was thought to safely house the famed Syamantak Mani, the Philosopher's stone linked with Lord Krishna, within its hollowness.
