You may have noticed that women take more risks than men, and there is a scientific reason for this. Women have a larger anterior cingulate cortex than men, which is the part of the brain that weighs options when making a decision. Some argue that this was evolution's way of making women better caregivers and saving the "tribe" when it came to gathering food and establishing social structures.

This curiosity has a social explanation rather than a scientific one. For centuries, society and the media have pushed women to hold themselves to a certain standard, whether it's small feet or a perky behind, and the majority of women have chosen stylish presentation over comfort.

The Salem witch trials took place between February 1692 and May 1693 in Salem, Massachusetts. Nearly 200 individuals, including the destitute, the elderly, and a four-year-old kid, were accused of witchcraft. The vast majority were imprisoned, and some were executed by hanging. However, none of these people were ever burned alive.

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.

When kissing, 70% of individuals turn their heads to the right. A German scientist who was monitoring kissing couples in airports, train stations, and beaches came to this conclusion. Perhaps this head posture is related to being right-handed.

It may be difficult to believe, but we have roughly the same number of hairs on our bodies as chimps; the difference is that our hairs are useless, being so fine that they are almost invisible. We're not sure why we lost our furry protection. It has been proposed that this was done to help early humans sweat more easily, to make life more difficult for parasites like lice and ticks, or even because our ancestors were partially aquatic.

Boys, more than girls, are more likely than girls to learn many lessons through experience rather than being told. This can make parenting them difficult, especially if you don't enjoy taking risks yourself. The most difficult challenge may be keeping them safe, so some risks must be avoided. It can also be difficult to be a support person as a parent when the lessons that boys learn bring hardship and tears.

Apple actually approached Verizon to collaborate in the making of the iPhone. However, Verizon had some conditions that were not liked by Apple. Thus they reached out to ‘Cingular Wireless’(AT&T Mobility)with the proposal. And, both parties agreed to all the terms and conditions and started to work on the project secretively. After working for over 2 and a half years, Apple unveiled the iPhone. The estimated development cost of the iPhone was about 150 million USD.

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.

People who have a full bladder are more convincing liars. A strong urge to use the restroom causes a person to focus on self-control, making lying more plausible. Furthermore, they attempt to prevent unnecessary movement. That's why scientists conducting a scientific experiment believed liars who needed to go to the bathroom.

The United States government physically poisoned booze during Prohibition. When individuals continued to drink alcohol despite its prohibition, law enforcement authorities were dissatisfied and decided to try a different form of deterrent—death. They directed the poisoning of industrial alcohols made in the United States, which were frequently stolen by bootleggers. The federal poisoning operation is estimated to have killed at least 10,000 individuals by the end of Prohibition in 1933.

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 have outgrown the hours-of-making-out-on-the-couch stage of your relationship, but you shouldn't dismiss kissing as a pleasurable pastime with your partner—and also a type of exercise! According to Woman's Day's sexologist, one hour of mild kissing burns 68 calories. "Oh my god, an hour?" you may be thinking. Yes, an entire hour. You've got this! You've always wanted to work out with your hubby, and now is your chance.

Stubbs, an orange cat, was named honorary mayor of the Alaskan town of Talkeetna in 1997. With a population of 772 in 2000, it would not have taken many votes to win the position (and the small town didn't have a real, human mayor anyway), but Stubbs proved adept at the role, gaining fans from all over the world and "serving" in the position for years, greeting tourists and becoming a beloved symbol of the town until his death in 2017.

Why doesn't your stomach digest itself if it has so many enzymes and acids that it can digest a piece of meat? It turns out that it sort of does. The cells that line your stomach proliferate fast in order to replace the cells that are killed in the course of their everyday tasks. Every three days, we develop a new gut lining.

According to research, the average attention span has shrunk by 12 minutes in the last decade. Human attention spans are now shorter than those of goldfish. Some research has even found a link between device multitasking — such as scrolling through social media while watching TV — and declining attention spans.

Recently, SpaceX sent four passengers into Earth orbit aboard the Crew Dragon spaceship. A concept for an aeroplane dubbed Rukma Vimana may be found in the book Vaimanika Shastra. G. R. Josyer disclosed the book in 1952, claiming that it was authored by Pandit Subbaraya Shastry (1866–1940), who dictated it between 1918 and 1923. In 1957, the first spacecraft was launched. Looking at the images above, you can see how similar these designs are. So, how did a Pandit in India envisage the concept of a spaceship 34 years before the first spacecraft launched? Is it just a coincidence?

Austrians celebrated their victory over Hungary during the 1848 revolution by clinking their drinks during a toast. Since then, Hungarians have avoided clinking their glasses while toasting since it reminds them of their loss. Instead, if you're drinking a beer in Hungary, say "Egészségedre" while looking your drinking companions in the eyes.

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.

Guns and tiny toddlers are the ideal mix for having fun. A terrific location to take your kids, ages 12 to 18, that is completely safe. Simply purchase a ticket for them and they are set to enjoy their time at the military "Disney" camp. Despite the fact that this location is officially affiliated with Disney, the character of this "amusement park" is everything from childlike. Professionals teach children how to handle assault and sniper rifles and even introduce them to bare-handed fighting. Every day that they stay there, they practise their survival abilities, as the campers typically take on an obstacle course and form teams for sporting contests after breakfast.

Obviously, James Bond is a British legend, yet he is of Scottish heritage. This is particularly evident in films like Skyfall, in which Bond returns to his childhood home in Scotland. However, Bond's lineage was not revealed until later in the series. Following the popularity of Dr. No, which starred Sean Connery as the famous spy, Ian Fleming incorporated Bond's Scottish origin. Of course, Connery is Scottish. Fleming specifically included these Scottish facts in the 007 novel You Only Live Twice, eternally establishing Bond's background. Connery would subsequently feature in the cinematic version of the book, however it was hardly faithful to the source material.
