![]() In the editions since the first publication of this book, Robert Fulghum has had some time to ponder, to reevaluate, and to reconsider, adding fresh thoughts on classic topics including a short new introduction. All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten is brimming with the very stuff of life and the significance found in the smallest details. sardines-and how these games relate to the nature of God. magical qualities found in a box of crayons. the love story of Jean-Francois Pilatre and his hot-air balloon reminds us to be brave and unafraid to "fly". ![]() a spider who catches (and loses) a full-grown woman in its web one fine morning teaches us about surviving catastrophe. The little seed in the Styrofoam cup offers a reminder about our own mortality and the delicate nature of life. Here Fulghum engages us with musings on life, death, love, pain, joy, sorrow, and the best chicken-fried steak in the continental United States. ![]() Today, after being embraced around the world and selling more than seven million copies, Fulghum's book retains the potency of a common though no less relevant piece of wisdom: that the most basic aspects of life bear its most important opportunities.

The Foundation Deed also provides for the distribution (out of a total sum of 20 shillings) of certain monies to the Lord Mayor of Nottingham, Vicar and others and for the purchase of bread, cheese and ale for consumption by the officials attending the Service. The formal procession is an important part of Founder’s Day and seeks to symbolise the ancient links the School has with the Crown, the City and the Church. With the exception of the Goose Fair, it is the most ancient ceremonial event still held in the City of Nottingham, and the oldest which is still largely in its original form (the Goose Fair is now a funfair rather than a livestock fair), although there seems to be no record of it being held between the middle of the sixteenth century and its modern revival in 1923. In the Foundation Deed, Mellers provided that a Commemoration Service should be held in St Mary's Church in the Lace Market “on the Feast of The Translation of St Richard of Chichester, namely 16 June” each year, although the service “is now held on the nearest Saturday to that date”. More recently, the school has also adopted the informal motto “T.E.A.M.” (“Together Everyone Achieves More”). The Latin inscription on the School Arms is Lauda Finem which translates as “Praise to the end”. Whilst this breaches laws of English heraldry, action is rarely taken in such matters. In 2007 the school introduced a new ‘logo’ for more general use, a modified version of the shield which omits the lozenge and the ermine field. The arms incorporate those of the school’s founder: the arms of the Mellers family were three blackbirds (or merles – an example of canting arms) on a white field Dame Agnes, being a woman, would have displayed these on a lozenge rather than a shield. And for the crest, on a wreath argent and gules, a squirrel sejant gules holding between the paws a ducal coronet or. On a chief gules, an open book also proper, garnished or, between two ducal coronets of the last. Coat of armsġ949 saw the granting of the school’s coat of arms by the College of Arms, the full blazon being:Įrmine, a lozenge argent charged with three blackbirds rising proper. 19,940 boys are estimated to have attended the school since 1513. It is not clear whether this was a new institution or a refoundation or endowment of an existing school, of which records exist as far back as 1289. As a result of their combined efforts, King Henry VIII sealed the school’s foundation deed on the 22 November of that year. In order to do this she enlisted the help of Sir Thomas Lovell, who was both the Governor of Nottingham Castle and Secretary to the Treasury. In 1513, the school was founded as the "Free School" by Dame Agnes Mellers, after the death of her husband, Richard, partly in his memory, but also as an act of atonement for his several wrongdoings against the people of Nottingham. ![]() ![]() For the purpose of this calculation we assume that you have other income of £16,000 a year.

I would say that 3+ decades of making the same cranks, with the only major change being the spindle, is tres classy! Honestly, I see every companies cranks getting destroyed these days the way the 'kids' ride.

Re: Redline Flight Cranks vs Haro Group 1 Cranks, which is better The old Group One cranks (from the 80s) notoriously snapped at the back of the arm where it met the spindle boss. Well, as someone that hasn't ever stopped riding, it's my observation that Profile is still the trusted crank on the deck. Riders today would snap my Profile in half the way many ride. The way kids ride today is so far passed what we did when I was young.they punish the crap out of bikes and parts yoday.

It was brilliant! I discovered the SDMB on AOL a little while later. It was in the free arts newspaper (the one that wasn’t the Village Voice). I discovered the Straight Dope column when I moved to New York in 1994. I’ve thought long and hard about how to change that. We are not shrinking but we are not growing either. Our demographic is about the same as SDMB. Hat 2 is that of an admin for another message board.Hat 1 is that of a long-time member, occasional poster.I’d be happy to contribute to support the message board but the last thing I want is to lord it over others that I’m a “Member” while they are a peon. Once we add “Celebrity Death Pool Winner,” it feels like a club where I wasn’t invited and I don’t get the in jokes. Once we start adding “Members” and “Charter Members,” it starts feeling like some people get to go behind the velvet rope where newcomers aren’t welcome. I get that there are moderators and others, which is a distinction I’m happy with. I’ve never signed up a Member because, honestly, I’d rather just have a board where people are mostly equal. Are we sustainable with a couple thousand active members? What is the minimum viable user base? What does Sun Times want out of the board? Do they expect the boards to drive traffic to their site? I don’t think that happens today, but if it did, would they be wiling to put money back into the board? Would they be willing to sell it the users who are here now, who could operate it as a non-profit? Or to a single user who is willing to put a little time and money into it to see it it could be a sustainable business again? What intellectual property could come with it? The message board archives are a minimum, but what about the column archives? Do they still drive traffic to the boards? What about the “Straight Dope” trademark? The “Cecil Adams” trademark? TPTB should set goals for what they want out of the board. We should target goals for new signups and retention of active users to grow at some realistic rate. Repeat for a few threads each month and build a bigger user base of people with something to contribute. If we got two or three new people on board who say, “I know that!” we’re getting somewhere. If we were inclined, the social media outreach person could push that question out to HR professionals through ads on LinkedIn or Facebook. I just bumped thread on using personality tests to screen new hires. I’m, not an expert in social media marketing but it seems like we have some active threads on interesting topics from time to time. ![]() We could advertise through social media to target the types of people we want on the board. We could certainly be more welcoming of newbies once they get here. ![]() I have no particular interest in Facebook tracking everything I do. One factor that helps keep me on the site is that I can be anonymous. Whether this would be worth the effort might depend on an analysis of what articles still drive traffic to the site. The archives should also be populated with links to the related discussion pages so people who find the articles through Google can also learn more or add to the discussion on the boards. Each new column could come with a baked-in link to the board discussion about the column although if there aren’t enough regulars to feed the column discussion, that won’t do a good job of attracting newbies. Maybe they would be happy with a deal where “Cecil Adams” gave them a viable column each week and we got at least a few clicks from new readers to the homepage. Ideally, you could get some organic traffic from links by other news sources that attract the types of thinking readers we want. You would need a writer or writers with some interesting perspective writing about topics people want to discuss. If someone were to resurrect the column, online only, it might drive people back to the site. I found the boards through the Straight Dope column in my local alt weekly, which has since gone bankrupt several times. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Whether you require a design template for personal or professional use, there are a number of excellent resources available online.

Martin Grasser was two years out of art school when Twitter hired him for the logo redesign in 2011. The blue bird icon evokes a smile, like the Amazon up-turned-arrow smile - in contrast to the X that Musk has imposed. “Dictionaries are usually pretty tentative or cautious about letting new words in, especially for new phenomena, because they don’t want things to be just a flash in the pan.”Īs Twitter grew into a global communications platform and struggled with misinformation, trolls and hate speech, its friendly brand image remained. “Getting into the dictionary is an indication that people are already using it,” said Jack Lynch, a Rutgers University English professor who studies the history of language. The Associated Press Stylebook entered it in 2010. The Oxford English Dictionary added “tweet” in 2011. No other social network has a word for posting that’s entered the vernacular like “tweet” - though Google did the same for “googling.” News sites embed tweets in their stories and TV programs scroll them. People who never signed up for Twitter knew what the word meant.įor now, we still tweet, retweet and quote tweet, and sometimes - perhaps not often enough - delete tweets. Former President Donald Trump’s incendiary use of the bird app quickly punted “tweet” into near-constant headlines during his presidency. World leaders, celebrities and athletes, dissidents in repressive regimes, propaganda trolls, sex workers and religious icons, meme queens and actual queens. We’ve been tweeting for well over a decade. But “twittered” doesn’t roll off the tongue and “tweet” soon took over, first in the Twitter office, then San Francisco, then everywhere. Twitter co-founder Evan Williams “went one day and purchased the vowels, two vowels for essentially $7,500 each,” when he bought the URL for from a bird enthusiast, Bilton said.Īt the beginning, people didn’t “tweet” - it was “I’m going to twitter this,” Bilton recalled. It was “twttr” - without vowels, which was the trend in 2006 when the platform launched and SMS texting was wildly popular. You don’t get to decide it,” said Nick Bilton, the author of “Hatching Twitter: A True Story of Money, Power, Friendship, and Betrayal” about Twitter’s origins. And it can’t be controlled, it can’t be created, it can’t be morphed. “Language has always come from the people that use it on a day-to-day basis. Upending that takes more than a top-down declaration, even if it is from the owner of Twitter-turned-X, who also happens to be one of the world’s richest men. With “tweets,” Twitter accomplished in just a few years something few companies have done in a lifetime: It became a verb and implanted itself into the lexicon of America and the world. Write a post, you still need to press a blue button that says “tweet” to publish it. Nike is the name of the Greek winged goddess of victory.Elon Musk may want to send “tweet” back to the birds, but the ubiquitous term for posting on the site he now calls X is here to stay - at least for now.įor one, the word is still plastered all over the site formerly known as Twitter. They later decided to make their own shoes and called the shoe “Nike.” Soon, the business’s name was changed to honor the shoe. Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman opened the business to distribute running shoes. Nike (Blue Ribbon Sports): Blue Ribbon Sports was born in Beaverton, Oregon, in 1964. Meta’s focus will be to bring the metaverse to life and help people connect, find communities and grow businesses,” the company said in a press release when the name change was announced. “Meta, brings together our apps and technologies under one new company brand. Meta (Facebook): In 2021, Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s CEO, announced that the company would be known going forward as Meta. According to the company, Alphabet was meant to be the name of a holding company for the company’s other businesses. Google was rebranded a second time and became Alphabet in 2015. Google/Alphabet (BackRub): Google began as BackRub in 1996, but changed its name to Google a year later. Thirty years later, the company became more than just a computer store when it branched out into iPhones, iPods, iPads and more. Apple (Apple Computers): Founders Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne incorporated Apple Computers in 1977. ![]() ![]() While the game is paused, holding CURSOR and repeatedly pressing FIRE twice resets the game back to the title screen. The bosses include the Koopalings, with some of them piloting Mechs bigger versions of normal enemies (such as a large Magikoopa or the Big Boo) and Bowser himself, wearing a suit of armor equipped with two Gun-Hands and a devastating energy cannon located in the stomach. Also, there are branching paths that leads to different enemies, mini-bosses or prizes they always end with the same main road, which leads to a boss. Yoshi's Safari puts some emphasis on platforming, and at times it's imperative to jump (via the Cursor button) in order to avoid some obstacles. There are two Fire Flowers in the game, and collecting them increases the amount of time that the Scope can shoot before needing to recharge. The RPM of the Super Scope will decrease when its Power Meter is close to empty when it becomes completely empty, the Scope will continue firing, but only one shot at a time, even if the Fire Button is still held down (signifying that the player needs to release the Fire Button and let it recharge). The Super Scope can fire automatically, which quickly drains power. Yoshi's head is always visible, and shooting at him causes a loss of health. The game is played from the perspective of Mario, who rides on Yoshi's back and must shoot incoming enemies with the Super Scope. This not only changes the colors of the levels, but it also makes the bosses harder and changes the text of the story scenes to say that the events of the story are repeating themselves. At the end of the game, a code for a harder game is given to use at the title screen. Fortunately, Prince Pine is a friend of Princess Peach, who promptly sends Mario and Yoshi to save Jewelry Land she gives them the Super Scope to aid in their quest.Īfter defeating the Koopalings in the Light Realm and freeing King Fret, Mario and Yoshi head to the Dark Realm to save Prince Pine from Bowser. The gems are distributed amongst Bowser, the Koopalings and four powerful minions, all of whom lord over the many regions of the captured kingdom. They also steal the twelve gems that keep the land stable and the resulting earthquake splits the kingdom into two halves: the Light Realm and the Dark Realm.
