Sniper rifles are rifled clockwise in the Northern hemisphere and counter-clockwise in the Southern due to the Coriolis force. Doing this allows approximately three millimeters more accuracy at 100 meters.

The Olympic Torch is relatively new, it was introduced in the 1936 Berlin Olympics. The ultra-right German government had a penchant for nordic rituals with its torch ceremonies. One of the few silly rituals introduced by those fellows that have survived to this day. Maybe it's time to drop the torch!
May 'the Google' be with you!

More haplographic errors occur with the letters "rr" than with the letters "aa", "ee", "ii", "oo", and "uu" combined.

Yes, there are millionaire dogs in the world, 29 of them as of this time. While all of these canines have their funds managed in trust, they are the legal benefactors.
