Members phkrause Posted November 18, 2019 Author Members Share Posted November 18, 2019 The Mona Lisa, also known as La Gioconda, is a portrait by the Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci and is one of the most valuable paintings in the world. The Italian name for the painting, La Gioconda, means "jocund" ("happy" or "jovial"), or literally "the jocund one", a pun on the feminine form of the sitter's married name Giocondo. The model, Lisa del Giocondo, was the wife of wealthy Florentine silk merchant Francesco del Giocondo. The painting is thought to have been commissioned for their new home, and to celebrate the birth of their second son.

Members phkrause Posted November 22, 2019 Author Members Share Posted November 22, 2019 The flag of the state of Wyoming consists of the silhouette of an American bison. In 1916, an open competition was held for the design of an official Wyoming flag. A $20 cash prize was offered for the winning design, and the contest received 37 submissions. An artist by the name of Verna Keays took first place with her design of a bison (Wyoming's official state mammal) with the state seal branded at its center. On January 31, 1917 the new design was adopted, and signed into law.

Members phkrause Posted November 25, 2019 Author Members Share Posted November 25, 2019 On November 16, 1907, Oklahoma became the 46th state to enter the union. Oklahoma is known by its nickname, The Sooner State, in reference to early settlers who flooded the region to claim a stake of unassigned land prior to the official opening date. People who entered the district illegally to lay claim to land were called "Sooners." Early legal settlers had a very low opinion of Sooners. However, like many nicknames, this one's negative connotations faded over time and Oklahoma adopted the nickname “The Sooner State”.

Members phkrause Posted November 26, 2019 Author Members Share Posted November 26, 2019 Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus are both legendary singers, and they have a deep connection with one another, too. Dolly Parton is Miley Cyrus' godmother. Her relationship with Miley stems from a long-lasting friendship with the 26-year-old's father and fellow musician, Billy Ray Cyrus. Billy Ray first met Dolly when he toured with her after the release of his single "Achy Breaky Heart" in 1992. Miley Cyrus was born the same year, and Parton has been in her life ever since. Fans who've followed Cyrus since the Hannah Montana days will likely remember that Parton made an appearance as Miley's godmother on the show.

They are often cited as the first true punk rock group. All of the band members adopted pseudonyms ending with the surname "Ramone", although none of them were biologically related. They performed 2,263 concerts, touring virtually nonstop for 22 years. In 1996, the band disbanded. By 2014, all four of the band's original members had died – lead singer Joey Ramone (1951–2001), bass guitarist Dee Dee Ramone (1951 - 2002), guitarist Johnny Ramone (1948–2004) and drummer Tommy Ramone (1949–2014).

Members phkrause Posted December 10, 2019 Author Members Share Posted December 10, 2019 n 1939, Franklin Roosevelt moved Thanksgiving up a week to help stir up the economy during the Depression so that the Christmas shopping season would last longer. It was a disaster. Many governors refused to recognize the earlier holiday, resulting in Thanksgiving celebrations taking place on separate days in different states. The country became split on which Thanksgiving they should observe, when 23 states chose to celebrate the holiday on its original date, rather than move it up a week. A 1941 Commerce Department survey concluded that the earlier date did nothing to increase sales.

Members phkrause Posted December 10, 2019 Author Members Share Posted December 10, 2019 George Washington was the first president to declare Thanksgiving a holiday, but it was on a year-to-year basis, so each president had to re-declare it every year. Thomas Jefferson was so adamantly against Thanksgiving that he refused to declare it a holiday during his entire presidency. Jefferson passionately believed in the separation of church and state, and thought that the day of "prayer" violated the First Amendment. It wasn’t until 1863, when Abraham Lincoln proclaimed Thanksgiving a federal holiday to be commemorated each year on the fourth Thursday of every November.

Contemporary use of the term now refers to it as the point in the year at which retailers begin to turn a profit, thus going from being "in the red" to being "in the black".
