What the earth looked like 20 million to 750 million years ago in 25 steps you can choose. Pretty cool.

What words first appeared in print in a particular year?


I suspect there are inaccuracies, or maybe they're marking particular meanings for particular words.

That's cool, HM, but when I get back to the WW II era it's a little overwhelming.
Partially because of all the new tech the war effort produced, and new politics.
Like 1944 listed 221 words/phrases.


Until Nov 16th, you can vote for the oddest book title of the year.

I remember hearing reports of some literary shindig or other where two of the more unusual book titles included 'Sidney the Bat is awarded the Order of Lenin' and 'Beat your relatives to a bloody pulp'.

I believe the latter was aimed at the Christmas market.

One of my favorite book titles:

"Pissing In The Snow, And Other Ozark Folktales" by Vance Randolph.

In the past we've seen a bunch of cities put out fiberglass critters painted and sponsored by various business or civic groups. I was curious how this worked and in NYC where they did cows, artist Norm Magnusson tells how he got involved.

Quote:
When my gallery forwarded me the call for entries, it was irresistible. Four to five hundred New York artists were going to decorate life-sized fiberglass cows which would then be placed all around the city during the coming summer. Each cow I painted would get me $2,000 and be sold to a corporate "sponsor" for $7500. A nice little business proposition for the CowParade company, but irresistible nonetheless.
I didn't suspect the promoter got them decorated then looked for sponsors.
I don't know how many cows total but they choose 54 to auction off for charity (avg $18,000 each) and sell the rest on ebay.

Interesting read
