POPSHappy Birthday Noah Webster (Oct 16) Webster's suggestion of using "tung" instead of "tongue" didn't stick, though. Today Webster's name is synonymous with dictionaries and the date of his birth is observed as Dictionary Day. In his honor, this week we'll present words about words. As Webster said, "the process of a living language is like the motion of a broad river which flows with a slow, silent, irresistible current."

POPSThis Day In History, Happy Birthday America In 1986, more than 250 sailing ships and the United States' biggest fireworks display honored the Statue of Liberty in its 100th birthday year. In 1994, French forces in Rwanda established a security zone for refugees. In 1995, the British Parliament reconfirmed John Majors as prime minister. In 1997, NASA's Pathfinder landed on Mars to become the first U.S. spacecraft to land on the planet in more than two decades. Also in 1997, Mexico's top drug lord died in a Mexico City hospital following plastic surgery to change his appearance.

POPSOn July 4, Put Away the Flags Nota bene: Not everything I clip and pop on clipmarks.com matches my own opinion. I use to clipmark thingies that I regard as remarkable. Okay? To all US-American citizens: Congratulations and many happy returns of the Independence Day! God bless America! (And the rest of the world.) "Patriotism is the conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it." - George B. Shaw

POPSDo you have what it takes to become a citizen? Ok. In honor of Independence Day, as an American, try the test and see how well you do. There is a trick question (which I missed) but I'm happy to say that I did well. I'm so proud to be a citizen of the most wonderful Country in the world. "...Long may our land be bright, with freedom's holy light; Protect us by Thy might, Great God, our King".
