2023 ben myers a professor of theology and literature at a college in australia writes that his grandmother who was born in germany recorded every book that she read from the age of 14 until she passed away last week she provided complete records of every book for 80 years it s a total of 1 658 books which is approximately one book every two weeks the lady was i gather a serbian who lived in germany before immigrating to australia after world war ii in addition to english and serbian could read german and hungarian i ve done something similar for the past dozen years or so just an ongoing reading list perhaps it will give something for my own grandchildren to ponder 0 seven disastrous bridge collapses from history miss cellania 14 hours ago by now you ve heard about the collapse of the francis scott key bridge in baltimore after it was struck by a cargo ship tuesday morning leading to the deaths of six men working on the bridge large modern bridges that carry lots of traffic are engineering marvels except when they aren t or when they are hit by ships bigger than they were designed to resist or when big storms or earthquakes hit the picture above shows howard clifford running away from his abandoned car as the tacoma narrows bridge collapsed on november 7 1940 we previously posted a video of that harrowing bridge failure the suspension bridge twisted under the force of 40 mph winds until it couldn t maintain its integrity any longer smithsonian brings us some information on the baltimore bridge accident plus seven other horrific bridge collapses from history a couple of them were destroyed twice and a few are accompanied by video of the destruction image source uw digital collections 0 the elevator a star wars story miss cellania 16 hours ago getting on an elevator with your boss can be stressful but it s much worse when your boss has the power of life and death over you you just want to fade into the background but this stormtrooper named tk fng is the only one there besides darth vader and to make things worse vader has the hiccups can he keep his cool all the way to his floor this would have been much easier back in the day when stormtroopers were clones who didn t have the time nor the background to develop human emotions and anxieties you also have to wonder what the implications of a case of hiccups would be for a guy who uses an artificial beathing apparatus but you can t just ask him this star wars short film is brought to you by afk peter haynes created this video as part of his for the empire series in which tk fng is a recurring character you can see all the episodes here 0 how do you make a freezer colder miss cellania wednesday march 27 2024 at 2 34 pm aaron cohen has been running jason kottke s blog while he s on vacation cohen also owns an ice cream shop here he presents us with an example of confusing design the image is of a freezer knob if you wanted to make the freezer colder would you turn the knob clockwise or counterclockwise the arrow is pointing to the right clockwise does that mean that you should turn the knob in this direction to make the freezer colder or does it mean that these smaller numbers on the right are where you should set the knob for a colder temperature in other words which is colder a setting of 1 or a setting of 6 i have the same knob on my refrigerator and since both ideas occurred to me i just left it sitting where it s always been it s like when someone asks you to turn the air conditioning up do they mean to make the a c work harder to make the room cooler or do they mean turn the thermostat up which would be warmer in that case you can just ask them what they mean let us know your opinion in the poll and maybe some hvac pro will set us straight in the comments how would you make this freezer colder turn the knob to the right clockwise turn the knob to the left counterclockwise i know the answer from experience i don t know i am confused vote 3 nine songs that don t mean what you might think miss cellania wednesday march 27 2024 at 11 02 am embed from getty images there are two kinds of people in this world those who never listen to the lyrics of their favorite songs and those who know all the lyrics but misinterpret what they mean that s why the one i love by r e m is on many wedding playlists despite it being about an abusive relationship and why bruce springsteen s born in the u s a is used as a patriotic anthem despite it being a complaint about a guy s awful life a song is always more than its title but that s the thing people remember do you know what nirvana s smells like teen spirit is about no because the title has nothing to do with the lyrics as far as we can tell the meaning of some songs is misinterpreted because the word love stands out so it must be a love song or there s a rumor about a hidden meaning that s completely untrue or it s such a dance bop that it couldn t possibly say anything deep or philosophical sometimes one misheard lyric gives the song an entirely new but unintentional meaning and there are even cases where the singer and the liner notes disagree over what the lyrics really are read up on nine popular songs for which the lyrics are either ignored or misinterpreted at mental floss you can also listen to the article in video form 2 french bulldog performs i m just ken with ryan gosling miss cellania wednesday march 27 2024 at 9 09 am ryan gosling memorably sang the song i m just ken from the movie barbie at the oscar awards ceremony earlier this month viewers loved it sadly gosling did not win for best supporting actor but he did rule the internet for a few days afterward the performance sparked a sense of deja vu for the kiffness previously at neatorama because it reminded him of the singing bulldog that went viral five years ago therefore he couldn t resist editing together a mashup of the two so who does it better walter geoffrey s french bulldog or the movie star neither are professional singers and that s okay but personally i can t help but be drawn to the bulldog s performance it s just so emotional via geeks are sexy 0 the oldest candlepin bowling alley in the world john farrier wednesday march 27 2024 at 6 34 am candlepin bowling is a variant of bowling that originated in new england and the maritime provinces of canada the cylindrical pins which resemble candles in shape are three inches wide the balls are much smaller than what you might be used to measuring only four and a half inches across d amanda s bowling alley in ellsworth maine which is owned and operated by one person has a unique pinsetting machine that was built as a prototype in 1949 it s still in use although it is fragile and requires almost constant repairs at the age of 19 autumn mowery purchased the alley and is its only employee mowery has to run everything because it s impossible for her to get insurance to protect workers who would have to repair and reset the pinsetting machine wcsh news in portland interviewed mowery about her mission to preserve the traditions of candlepin bowling and this particular business 2 this is a javelin training machine john farrier wednesday march 27 2024 at 6 10 am johannes vetter is a german athlete who specializes in the javelin throw his personal record is almost 320 feet and 9 inches which is a long distance to throw anything at all how does vetter do it he trains hard and trains smart using the best techniques and equipment available this includes weighted sleds designed specifically for javelin training i think that he s using this specific model which was allows for not only weight adjustment but also calculates the velocity of each throw athletes can use this machine while seated or standing via massimo 0 how sewing machines work exuperist wednesday march 27 2024 at 12 47 am sewing any garment by hand is tedious work and it requires a tremendous amount of skill as well but we don t sew clothes by hand anymore because we have sewing machines it may seem trivial for anyone who isn t interested in embroidery or sewing but the things needed in order to make invent sewing machines was actually remarkable when i was a kid my grandmother had a sewing machine in her room and my cousins and i would often visit her room and play with the sewing machine not knowing exactly how the machine worked we would often just step on the pedal and the machine would start and the sound that it made was like music to our ears the sewing machine was invented in the 1850s although it s unclear who exactly was the first to do so as there were many competing claims however in order for the sewing machine to work there were three main innovations that had to be established before we got to a prototype of the modern sewing machine first of all inventors needed to think of a different way of sewing instead of having to manually flip over the needle from one side to the other charles wiesenthal invented a needle that was sharp on two edges that removes the need for flipping but then a second problem presented itself even though the needle could now go through the fabric on both sides there was no way of tangling the thread onto the fabric that s when the chain stitch was conceptualized although the chain stitch solved the problem of the thread staying on the fabric if the thread were to come loose then the whole seam would come apart as well so inventors devised a solution called the lock stitch which held the thread in place by using two different spools of thread which will be interlocked in the middle of the fabric to keep it in place this brought about several changes to the sewing machine integrating that innovation the last piece of the puzzle was how to move the fabric without having to do it by hand and thus came the feed dog which is the part of the sewing machine that automatically moved the fabric after every stitch once all the pieces had been acquired we finally got the modern sewing machine with all of these different parts isaac singer a businessman thought of commercializing the sewing machine he bought the patents for all the different innovations and made the manufacturing of the sewing machines more efficient so that it can be sold to households instead of corporations this brought the price of the sewing machine down to one tenth of its original price of 100 and that s how our grandmothers were able to have this nifty machine that can make clothes in half an hour in their rooms video credit veritasium youtube 0 animation from 1833 to 2017 exuperist wednesday march 27 2024 at 12 09 am the first instance of animation was produced was in 1833 with the invention of the phenakistiscope which is a device that produced the illusion of motion you probably have seen those rotary devices which have a sequence of drawings inside that when you spin it will make it look like the drawings are moving from that point we fast track to the early 20th century when some of the more familiar animated scenes like little nemo and gertie the dinosaur appear although it wasn t until the debut of steamboat willie that animation would begin its rapid rise and development into more advanced technologies walt disney obviously had a huge hand in putting animation into the forefront with dozens of short animated features and full length feature films like snow white and the seven dwafs from the 1930s until the 1960s disney was prolific churning out classics such as cinderella alice in wonderland and peter pan for much of animation s history they have mostly been hand drawn or stop motion until the advent of computer generation 3d animation which now dominates much of the animated film industry and so with the short video above let s look through the evolution of animation from its earliest beginnings to what it has become today video credit the solomon society youtube 0 embroidery prisoners unlikely pastime exuperist tuesday march 26 2024 at 11 51 pm when we think about embroidery we often imagine an old lady hunched over a piece of fabric needling through it with a thread but isabella rosner has recently published a book titled stitching freedom embroidery and incarceration which explores the history behind embroidery and its popularity with prisoners as a pastime rosner wanted to dispel the notion that embroidery is an old woman s hobby that is she wanted to bring a new side separate from the connotations brought about by that notion that it s a hobby made for people who have the privilege of time resources and even status on their hands she started off with mary queen of scots who had been placed on some kind of house arrest for almost 18 years throughout that time mary had used embroidery as an outlet for her indignation over her situation imagine she had been queen of scotland for 25 years and then was forced to abdicate because she was accused of murdering her husband henry stuart lord darnley truly as much as embroidery is seen as therapeutic by some an introspective activity it can also be a means of releasing all the violent emotions that a person has kept within one can look at embroidery as the act of stabbing a fabric with a small sharp object and perhaps that s why a lot of incarcerated people have developed a fondness for the activity one other individual that featured in rosner s book was annie parker nobody knew what annie parker looked like but with the pieces of embroidery she left behind we can imagine what she must have gone through she even used locks of her hair as substitute for thread through her research rosner found out that parker had given birth to four children in prison who all died she was most likely abused by her husband as well records say that she was imprisoned for drunkenness and others mention her violent behavior breaking windows and committing robbery while the cause for all of this is unfortunately unknown or uncertain what we do have as her legacy are her famed works of hair embroidery and for rosner it feels as though parker was reaching out a hand to any who would grab it she might have been putting all of her regret frustration longing dedication and sorrow over her situation in her artwork an especially poignant story is that of rada nikolić who had stitched a message on her handkerchief telling her family to remember her nikolić had been arrested by the nazis who charged her for involvement in anti fascist activities as she awaited her execution she chose to write to her family and used embroidery as the means of conveying her message so yes as much as embroidery is a nice quiet pastime it has also been used by people throughout history to express the depths of their sorrow anger frustration and hope as much as any piece of art can be used in such manner embroidered art feels more personal as we can examine and try to understand exactly what the maker must have been thinking or feeling while they were stitching
