Walt's personal favorite song was a ballad called "Feed the Birds," which is from the Mary Poppins movie and is one of the many upbeat hits from Disney films over the years. Richard Sherman, who wrote the song, claims that Walt frequently visited the Sherman brothers' office at Disney on Fridays and asked for a personal rendition of "Feed the Birds." Sherman recalled that the man "loved that song and knew it was the heartbeat of the whole movie."

Everyone is familiar with the nursery rhyme "Mary Had A Little Lamb," but you may not be aware that it is based on a true storey. Mary Sawyer was her name.

Wyoming Territory became the first state to grant the right to vote to women above the age of 21 in 1869. Historians believe that, in addition to granting women equal rights with males, MPs passed the statute in order to attract more settlers to the state.

Did you know that "serendipity," one of the British's favorite words, is derived from "Serendip," the Arab and Persian names for Sri Lanka? The English writer Horace Walpole coined the term in 1754, based on the title of a Persian fairy tale, The Three Princes of Serendip, in which the princes "were perpetually making discoveries, by accidents and sagacity, of things they were not in pursuit of." Sri Lanka is known as the "Land of Serendipity" for a reason: it has unspoiled beaches, timeless ruins, wonderful wildlife, and breathtaking landscapes.

A treaty was drafted between the two countries in 1898, leasing Hong Kong to Britain for 99 years. As a result, Hong Kong became a Chinese Special Administrative Region on July 1, 1997.

Each fairyfly weighs a minuscule amount due to its minuscule size. It is reasonable to assume that no fairyfly weighs more than 1 mg. Termites, which can grow to be about 10 times larger, only weigh 2.5 mg. Therefore, it is possible to estimate how little the fairyflies weigh.

Consider the following scenario: a racist man is exposed to Agent Orange-style gas while serving in Vietnam. When he is under stress, he transforms into a black superhero dressed as a Harlem Globetrotter, and neither identity remembers the other. After Marvel's success with Black Panther and Luke Cage, DC's first idea was to create something similar. Perhaps it is a relief that DC chose Black Lightning instead.

Einstein fell in love with sailing as a student in Zurich, a passion that lasted the rest of his life. The only problem was that he was a terrible sailor. He frequently flipped his boat over and had to be rescued dozens of times. (Tinef, Yiddish for "worthless," was the name of his ship.) The New York Times headlined a 1935 story on Einstein's sailing escapades, "Relative Tide and Sand Bars Trap Einstein."

Although you should be meticulous about using broad-spectrum sunscreen every day now, there may have been a period when you were not as attentive.

The astronomical summer began on June 21 this year, making it the first day of summer. The cosmic schedule decides the seasons because of the 23.5 levels of slant of the World's hub, in its circle around the Sun. On June 1, the meteorological summer begins. Each meteorological season lasts for three months. They are in sync with the Gregorian calendar, making it simpler to compare monthly and seasonal statistics for observing and forecasting.
 

We can also thank Hollywood for more neutral nail trends. According to legend, Jeff Pink, the founder of the nail polish brand Orly, invented the French manicure in 1975 to speed up the makeup process for actresses who change costumes frequently. Some argue that the look dates back to 1930s Paris, when Max Factor pioneered the clean and polished look.

Because of the island's hidden coves and the absence of European powers for centuries, Madagascar was once a secure sanctuary for hundreds of pirates. Captain James Misson allegedly established an anarchist colony (Libertatia) there in the late 17th century, whereas Ile Sainte-Marie, four miles off Madagascar's east coast, was simply referred to on maps as "the island of pirates" at the time. When they weren't robbing treasure, countless brigands, including Captain Kidd, found refuge there. Some are buried in the cemetery on the island.

When they assault again, you'll know what they're saying: "Stay off my property, yah hear!"

Books are an interesting market in part because they offer a 100% return policy. So, if a publisher sells 50 copies of a fresh new book to, say, Target or a local independent bookshop, that company has the option of returning all 50 copies to the publishing house if they don't sell. Isn't that crazy? 50 copies aren't much, but when you get into the hundreds, you can see how this can be a difficult market to predict.

The official cause of death for Branwell Bront, who passed away in September 1848 at the age of 31, was "chronic bronchitis-marasmus," a type of tuberculosis (then called consumption). His dependence on laudanum, opium and alcohol undoubtedly worsened his condition.

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) mandates that all ATMs must be accessible to people with visual impairments, and drive-through ATMs aren’t exempt.
