If you're using romantic whispers to impress a potential partner, make sure to speak into his or her left ear. An MITCogNet study discovered that when emotion stimuli were delivered to the left ear, recall accuracy was more than 6% higher than when the same stimuli were delivered to the right ear.

It's extremely unusual, yet it has happened. The event known as "coffin birth" happens when a pregnant woman dies and her kid is born spontaneously owing to gases that build up in the abdominal area, placing pressure on the mother's uterus and driving the baby through the birth pathway. According to Smithsonian, one example of this was discovered in the grave of a mediaeval woman who was buried in Italy in 2010.

According to LA Weekly, Disneyland's Clubb 33, which used to be a secret location where Walt Disney hosted important guests, is the only place in the park that serves alcohol.

The date of February 14 was formally named "St. Valentine's Day" by Roman Pope Gelasius around the end of the fifth century. However, it wasn't until the Middle Ages that the festival became connected with love and passion, a tradition that sprang from the widespread belief in France and England that birds began their mating season on February 14.

Though some historians think that Valentine's Day commemorates St. Valentine's death on February 14, others believe that the event derives from a Pagan fertility festival known as "Lupercalia," which was held on February 15 in ancient Rome. The day was dedicated to Faunus, the Roman god of agriculture, and the Roman founders Romulus and Remus, and was celebrated by sacrificing animals and slapping women with animal skins, a technique thought to increase fertility.

When explaining behaviour, we often attribute positive outcomes to internal factors and negative outcomes to external forces. When it comes to other people's actions, however, we usually attribute them to internal characteristics. For example, if we receive a poor grade on a paper, it is the fault of the teacher; if a classmate receives a poor grade, it is because he did not study diligently enough. The actor-observer bias refers to this tendency.

It is typical for superheroes to die in DC Comics, and most of the time, they find a way to return. Superman has had his share of visits to the afterlife, but one death in particular stands out. The most famous death occurred in the 1993 comic book "The Death of Superman." Doomsday beats Superman to death in this narrative, and they both die battling one other. Later, Superman is resurrected, which isn't the first time this has happened.

This study was inspired by evidence obtained from wrongful conviction cases. The study involved interviewing adult suspects in a comfortable setting and employing poor memory retrieval techniques. Within three hours, the suspects had been interrogated in ways that led them to believe in and confess to crimes they had not committed. They were even able to vividly describe the events, and some of them believed they had committed a crime as serious as assault with a weapon as teenagers. Are you willing to be persuaded?

Life is a difficult and dirty affair. If you don't want to lose brain cells, you might want to skip this calorie-burning tip. A 45-minute stroll with your dog would be a safer method to burn 150 calories.

Researchers at Arizona State University made the ground-breaking discovery that the ability to see red in all its glory is frequently gender-dependent. There is a gene that allows people to see and interpret red and its related colours such as cardinal, maroon, crimson, and so on, and that gene is linked to the x-chromosome. Because women are born with two x chromosomes, they have a better ability to see the entire red spectrum, whereas men, with a single x chromosome, aren't necessarily equipped to tell the difference between red and, say, cardinal.

Scientists can detect whether a gene has been effectively inserted into an animal's DNA by adding some type of clearly recognised marker to it. When testing an anti-FIV gene in 2011, scientists at the Mayo Clinic employed a fluorescent protein from a particular jellyfish. The tests were successful, however the cats did glow in the dark. In fact, these cats' offspring sparkle in the dark! Nonetheless, their accomplishment is only one step toward an ultimate solution for AIDS.

According to recent study from the University of Bristol, just 0.006 percent of the Korean population carries the ABCC11 gene. This gene is responsible for armpit odour. In fact, the study discovered that most East Asians lack this gene, with Koreans having the lowest amounts. While this may come as a surprise to Americans, it isn't a significant deal in Korea because deodorant isn't widely available!

You may or may not be aware that love can result in strong infatuation. The same serotonin levels reported in persons with obsessive-compulsive disorder, an anxiety disorder, are found in those with infatuation. This is most likely why you can't seem to think of anyone else while you're in love.

The ability to forget is a sign of high intelligence. According to scientists, forgetting is equally important as remembering. "Bad memory" is a mechanism in your brain that allows you to make more room in your brain for more relevant information. It also prevents your brain from squandering space and energy.

There are many misconceptions surrounding Washington, but one of the most common has to do with his teeth. Washington is commonly assumed to have had wooden dentures. This is not at all the case. While Washington had severe oral issues and wore dentures, wood was never employed as a material.

Do you consider all of your decisions, weighing all of your options and calculating the impact of each outcome? You may believe you are, but you are incorrect. The majority of your decisions are made subconsciously because your conscious mind would be overwhelmed with information and you would likely become mentally frozen. This is because your brain receives over 11 million bits of information every second, and there simply isn't enough "brainpower" to process it all consciously.

Start counting those sheep, since sleep is crucial. Many of history's worst tragedies, such as Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, the Challenger explosion, and the Exxon Valdez oil leak, were caused by a lack of sleep.

Scientists from Sydney's Garvan Institute of Medical Research discovered that shivering in the cold for 10 minutes burns more fat than a one-hour workout. These new discoveries build on a past study into brown fat, a kind of fat tissue that consumes energy rather than storing it. So Start shivering...

Now, before you start freaking out, please hear us out! Sedentism is encouraged in today's environment. After all, we sit during our commutes, to eat, to watch TV, to work, to socialise with our friends, and so on. It turns out that even if you exercise regularly, it won't keep you safe from the risks of the "office lifestyle."

You may hear people claim to be natural multitaskers, and you've probably even seen it in job descriptions, but humans simply cannot multitask. You can listen to music while working, but your brain can only handle one higher-functioning task at a time. That means you'll either be working and ignoring the music, or you'll be working and ignoring the music. People are incapable of thinking about two things at the same time.

In the good ol' USA, around 300 billion pizzas are sold each year. Not only that, but 93 percent of Americans have eaten pizza in the last month, according to a recent survey. Around the Super Bowl, there is a significant increase in pizza delivery sales. It doesn't get any more American than that! Unfortunately, there is no official statistics on how many of those pies were devoured as a result of Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos' "Two Pizza Rule."

It doesn't seem to matter what others say about a new lover—in our eyes, he or she is always ideal. This blindness is essential for us to progress in our relationship. It is frequently required to progress to the "attachment stage," as scientists refer to it so that they can stay in love long enough to produce and raise children; in other words, to populate the globe.

In terms of the most educated population, Ukraine ranks fourth in the world. 99.4% of Ukrainians aged 15 and up can read and write. 70% of adult Ukrainians have a secondary or higher level of education. Even Ukraine's current heavyweight champions, Vitali and Wladimir, have doctorates.

There is a spa in Japan where you can bathe in coffee, as well as wine, tea, and other beverages! Bathing in coffee is said to have recharging, relaxing, and skin beautifying properties.

Komorebi, for example, means "sunshine flowing through leaves." It's an odd term, but if you start learning Japanese, you'll discover many more. Furthermore, the harshest curses in Japanese are "fool" and "idiot." Another fascinating aspect is slang. For example, "gaijin" means "foreigner," "baka" means "fool," and "baka-gaijin" is slang for "American."
