Fact O' The Day

"Scientists have discovered giant single-celled organisms in the Mariana trench."

National Geographic engineers and researchers with Scripps Institution of Oceanography investigated the Mariana Trench, the deepest part of the Earth's oceans. They recorded the existence of organisms called xenophyophores; similar to giant amoebas, these protozoans can reach up to four inches in diameter, making them the largest individual cells ever recorded. They've been observed before, though never this deep. Xenophyophores are suited to life in their extreme environment, which makes them difficult to study.

"63% of jobs in America will require a post-secondary degree by 2018."


This statistic comes from a report by the Georgetown Center on Education and the Workforce, which also stresses that the disparity in earnings is now at its greatest between high school dropouts and people with professional degrees (accounting for a difference in earnings of $3,452,000 over an entire lifetime). Having any post-secondary school at all, even without graduating, is worth an extra $473,000.

"Two-thirds of Americans believe that Ouija boards are dangerous."


65% of Americans believe in the potential dangers of using a Ouija board, according to a collection of statistics on belief in the paranormal compiled by LiveScience. Furthermore, Gallup polling indicates that 73% of Americans believe in at least some kind of paranormal phenomenon, with most of those (41%) believing in ESP. Slightly fewer Americans (37%) believe in haunted houses, as do a similar number of Britons (40%). Canadians are somewhat more rational on this point, with only 28%.

"Men are more likely to engage in social shopping than women."

Social shopping, which integrates social networking with internet commerce, has traditionally been considered the domain of women but according to an ROI Research study, men are actually more likely to engage in most of the aspects of social shopping (e.g. finding store information via social networks and looking up product reviews). Men were also more active in every major social networking site than women, with the sole exception of Facebook (used by 97% of female respondents and 96% of male respondents).
