10 things we learned this week Aug 19, 2007 04:30 AM John Sakamoto Some squirrels can raise the temperature of their tails to confuse and ward off rattlesnakes. (newscientist.com) The Swedish government has collected $276,500 in fines this year from 2,252 people caught urinating in public. (thelocal.se) Moviegoers ate 45.3 per cent more fresh popcorn "when it was given to them in large containers." Given stale, 14-day-old popcorn, they still ate 33.6 per cent more "when eating from a large container than a medium-size container." (foodpsychology.cornell.edu) When it comes to comfort food, women prefer items such as candy and chocolates, while men favour pizza, pasta, steak or casseroles. Also, women tended to feel "guiltier than men about their comfort food choices." (Cornell University) The first commercial CDs to roll off the conveyor belt 25 years ago were a recording of Herbert von Karajan conducting Richard Strauss's An Alpine Symphony and the similarly highbrow The Visitors by ABBA. (BBC) To calculate the number of photos you should take to get a group shot (of fewer than 20 people) in which no one's eyes are closed: divide the number of people by three (assuming you have good light). (popsci.com) The "rarest and most exotic domestic cat," the Ashera, costs $22,000 (U.S.). It is a "blend of the exotic bloodlines of the African Serval and the Asian Leopard Cat, subsequently bred with a domestic cat." The price doesn't include delivery. (lifestylepets.com) The image in a campaign for Virginia tourism – two thumbs and index fingers making the shape of a heart – is a symbol associated with the Gangster Disciples, "one of the most violent of four African-American gangs that hang out on the south side of Chicago." The campaign is being altered. (content.hamptonroads.com) The "poop" in "poop deck" is "derived from the Latin puppis, which means 'stern,' or the ship's rear section (insert punchline here). "It apparently was first transmogrified into 'poop' by William Caxton in 1489." (mentalfloss.com) Friday is National Waffle Day.
