From what I am taught, the best way to incapacitate a person without him dying too fast is to ram a small knife into the hollow area between the shoulder blade and the collar bone. It causes so much pain and minimal blood loss, great for countering knife attacks from a robber.

Hmm, I don't know how interesting this is, but here's a fact about airplanes:
The reason they don't make airplanes out of Black Box material is because it's so frickin' heavy, the plane won't be able to fly at all. Besides, just becaue the outer plane survives doesn't mean the people inside is safe too... (you know, because some when people hear that a black box is recovered from a plane that got into accident and drown, they often ask "why don't all the plane made out of the same material to ensure its safety?)

It's not belief, it's willful ignorance. Evolution and speciation are demonstrably accurate. They are scientific models that do not rely on belief.
It doesn't matter if you believe evolution is accurate or not; it's still correct. But the other side depends entirely upon belief and faith.

Also, if you urinate when swimming in a South American river, you may encounter the Candiru. Drawn to warmth, this tiny fish is known to follow a stream of urine to its source, swim inside the body, and flare it's barbed fins. It will remain firmly embedded in the flesh until surgically removed.
