"The earliest automobile design concept incorporated a windmill."


Guido da Vigevano, an Italian inventor in the early 14th century, sketched plans for a wind-powered battle vehicle that da Vigevano intended for use in the Crusades. He also sketched a crank-operated vehicle, similar to a later concept by Francesco di Giorgio, another artist and military engineer who would be the first to use the term "automobile" ("self-moving") to describe the vehicle.

"112,015 people own the Green Bay Packers."


The NFL team is unlike any other in professional sports; since 1923, it has been a publicly owned, non-profit corporation governed by a stockholder-elected board of directors and a seven-member executive committee.

Currently, 112,015 stockholders own 4,750,934 shares in the Packers, stocks for which they are given no seating entitlements and for which they earn no dividends.

my brother was going to invest in them this past time when they opened it up for more stock purchases. Granted not worth anything. Still very cool and the camaraderie that the people have there is unreal. Like when it snow's and they have to clear the stadium. The stadium is packed w/ people with shovels. Wisc loves their team.

"Men are more likely to fall in love at first sight than women."


Fifty-four percent of men said they'd experienced love at first sight, while only 44% of women said the same, according to a Match.com study designed by Binghamton University's Institute for Evolutionary Studies. The study, which polled 5,200 singles, also found that among singles under 18, more men than women wanted to have children (24% to 15%). On the other side of the coin, 35% of men and women said they'd fallen in love with someone they hadn't initially been attracted to.

"The U.S. Post Office Department briefly attempted mail by rocket."


"Rocket mail" has a long history. The first rocket mail attempt was in 1936, when the "Gloria," a rocket airplane, was launched from Greenwood Lake in New Jersey. Popular Mechanics wrote that the flight "may in time be considered as significant as that first historic flight of the Wright brothers at Kitty Hawk." Later, in 1959, the Postmaster General assisted in the delivery of mail via a cruise missile (the Regulus) fired from the USS Barbero. "Before man reaches the moon, mail will be delivered within hours from New York to California, to Britain, to India or Australia by guided missiles," he proclaimed.
