This method is wildly inaccurate and makes Alaska appear as large as Brazil and Greenland 14 times larger than it actually is. For a map to be completely accurate, it would need to be life-size and round, not flat.

10 Is it good to sleep longer on weekends?
One study found week-end catch-up sleep can lower your risk of depression. And another study even found the mortality rate of those who slept five hours or less during the week and then nine hours or more on the weekends was the same as those who consistently got seven hours of sleep.There is some evidence that sleeping in on weekends may recoup some sleep debt, but experts still recommend consistency as the best approach for healthy sleep. Sleeping in on two days of the week may be better than not getting enough sleep for seven days, but if you get more sleep all week long, that's even better.

12 For paper currency, special paper made of cotton and linen is used. For coins, metal blanks are prepared, usually composed of alloys such as copper, nickel, and zinc.
Paper Currency: The Bureau of Engraving and Printing prints the designs onto large sheets of the special paper using offset printing presses. Security features are also incorporated during this process.
Cutting and Inspection (for paper currency): After printing, the large sheets of paper are cut into individual bills. Each bill is then inspected for quality and accuracy, ensuring it meets standards for circulation.
Quality Control: Both paper currency and coins undergo rigorous quality control checks to ensure they meet the required standards for durability, security, and authenticity.
Packaging and Distribution: The finished currency or coins are packaged securely and distributed to banks and financial institutions for circulation throughout the economy.
Throughout this process, strict security measures are in place to prevent counterfeiting and ensure the integrity of the currency.

15 Giraffes are 30 times more likely to get hit by lightning than people. True, there are only five well-documented fatal lightning strikes on giraffes between 1996 and 2010. But due to the population of the species being just 140,000 during this time, it makes for about 0.003 lightning deaths per thousand giraffes each year. Despite being around five metres tall, giraffes are very unlikely to get struck by lightning. But this is mainly because lightning and giraffes are both fairly rare.
