Lions are stimulated ovulators; the female does not ovulate until she is stimulated to do so by lots of sex. As a result lions will mate roughly every 15 to 20 minutes for two or three days—200 to 300 times in succession. During that period they are inseparable and will not hunt or eat.

"Nobody has Blue eyes

What colour are blue eyes then? "

They're due to a lack of colour. All pigment in the iris is brown. Some of us just have a lot less pigment than others. Blue is what you see when visible light is reflected in the lack of pigment. Green eyes are a kind of intermediate (moderate amount of pigment). Brown eyes of various shades have more pigment.

I am left-handed. 10% of the world's population is left-handed. Left-handedness is caused by being right-brain dominant. The right side of the brain is the creative side, so creative artistic folks tend to be left-handed. In ancient times left-handed folks were regarded as sinister. Historically, the left side, and subsequently left-handedness, was considered negative in many cultures. The Latin word sinistra originally meant "left" but took on meanings of "evil" or "unlucky" by the Classical Latin era, and this double meaning survives in European derivatives of Latin, and in the English word "sinister". In Roman times the soldiers shook hands with their right hand and used a sponge in their left hand to wipe their ass after doing a shite. Hence the term kak handed is sometimes used for lefites.

There's no blue eye gene. There are mutated eye pigment genes that don't give brown pigment. Blue eyes are just an absence of pigment, not a different pigment colour.

"The longest sword fight in cinema is 12 minutes and is in Revenge of the Sith.when did a light saber become a sword"

This from that online encyclopedia..A sabre is a type of backsword with a curved blade associated with the light cavalry of the early modern and Napoleonic periods. .. so that's a bad description for a straight blade.

Ask George Lucas, I bet he said it just sounds cool and a damn sight more easier to spell, remember than the sword from China called Wanjiandao, which has a straight thin handle pommel (butt) and no cross guard. The pointy end is also long and straight from the Ricasso to the tapered tip.

Seeing how Holllywood and Pinewood borrow all the good ideas from history, they can also say that poetic licence was used hear.

What we call a Quasar is when a black hole begins engulfing nearby stars, it does so by sucking the energy from the star in a stream that spirals around the black hole, this spiral is referred to as an accretion disc and is incredibly bright.

In fact, Quasars are the brightest known things in the universe with a single Quasar emitting more light than entire galaxies. They are also incredibly old, with some being dated as far back as a few hundred million years after the big bang.

"The letter J did not exist in the English alphabet before 1524.

W wasn't in it either. It used to be uu (double u)

But for a while '&' was the 27th letter of the alphabet."

Why is a W not pronounced “double V”????

Cosmic climatology, may be a contributory factor in partially explaining global warming of our planet: the amount of rays from our nearest star, the sun, varies over very long time cycles, and why glaciation advances and recedes over colossal time scales.

The burning of fossil fuels, essentially stored sunshine, is definitely a factor, but is emerging as not provuding the whole answer to this burning question.

Humans have only been around for a very short period of time, a few hundreds of thousands of years, when the earth is 4,500,000,000 years old at least, in this form.

Blue for boys and pink for girls was well noted to be the opposite until I think roughly the early 1900's (not sure of the exact time frame)
