• The world’s third-largest island, Ireland sits in the North Atlantic just west of Great Britain.

It’s just slightly larger than the U.S. state of West Virginia, and ranks 120th in size in the nations of the world. The northeast corner of the island, appropriately named Northern Ireland, occupies about 17% of the area, and is a part of the United Kingdom. The Republic of Ireland occupies the remainder of the island.

• In 1921, Ireland was divided into Northern and Southern Ireland by the British Parliament.

Northern Ireland’s population was primarily Protestant British loyalists who wanted to remain a territory of the United Kingdom. Southern Ireland, primarily Roman Catholics, became a free state in 1922. Belfast has been the capital of Northern Ireland since 1921. Between 1969 and 2001, more than 1,600 people were killed in Belfast as the result of political violence.

• “Eire” is the Irish name for the Republic of Ireland. The familiar Irish phrase “Erin Go Bragh” translates “Ireland forever” in Gaelic.

• Since the late 1800s, English has been Ireland’s predominant first language. However, Irish Gaelic is listed in the Constitution of Ireland as the national and first official language. About 350,000 claim to be “fluent” in the ancestral Gaelic out of the island’s total population of about 6.5 million, although about 1.7 million say they can “speak it.” Oddly enough, the second most widely-spoken language in Ireland is Polish.

• The “Mac” at the beginning of many Irish surnames means “son of,” while “O’” translates “grandson of” in Gaelic.

• The Irish flag consists of a stripe each of orange, white, and green. The orange stripe is representative of Irish Protestants, the green for the Irish Catholics, with the white stripe between the two signifying the hope for peace between them.

• Althone, Ireland is home to the world’s oldest pub, Sean’s Pub, dating back to 900 AD. Built on the banks of the Shannon River by an innkeeper who guided travelers across the river, there are records of every owner since its establishment.

During a 1970 renovation, old coins were found within the walls dating back to the ninth century.

• Dublin, the capital of the Republic of Ireland, was founded by the Vikings in the year 988. The city of Dublin has more parks per square mile than any other European capital. Over 97% of the city’s residents live within 330 yards (300 meters) of a park.

• The Irish potato famine of the 1840s was the result of blight, a disease that destroyed the leaves and tubers of the plant. Years of unusually cool weather with large amounts of precipitation combined with the water mold Phytophthora infestans caused the potatoes to rot in the field year after year. Nearly half of Ireland’s population depended solely on the potato for food. As a result of the five-year blight, about one million Irish perished from starvation or famine-related diseases. Another estimated two million emigrated away from Ireland, and the island’s population declined by nearly 25% between 1844 and 1851. The population has never returned to pre-famine levels.

• In 1908, the Harland & Wolff shipyard in Belfast was expanded to accommodate the construction of two massive ocean liners, the Titanic and the Olympic. In April of 1912, the completed Titanic sailed out of Belfast to pick up passengers at ports in England, France, and Ireland for its maiden voyage. The last port of call was Queenstown, Ireland, where hundreds of Irish waited to immigrate to America. Four days later, the ship lay at the bottom of the North Atlantic, having hit an iceberg, 450 miles (725 km) short of their New York City destination.

• One might think that Ireland’s national symbol would be the familiar shamrock, but it’s actually the harp, making Ireland the only country with a musical instrument as its national symbol. Dublin’s Trinity College houses the oldest harp known to exist, dating back to at least 1300.

IRELAND (continued):

• Ireland did not enter World War II, choosing to remain a neutral country.

• Although the name of Patrick is closely associated with the country of Ireland, it’s far from the most popular boy’s name. Jack is the number one name for boys there, with Patrick a distant 19th.

• An athlete from Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom, has the choice of competing for either Great Britain or Ireland at the Olympic Games.

• Ireland’s County Galway is home to some pretty long place names, including Muckanaghederdauhaulia, which means “marsh of the pigs between two seas,” and Carrowkeelanahaglass, meaning “a narrow green marshland by a stream.” The longest is Glassillaunvealnacurra, which translates “little green island of the mouth of the weir.”

• Although Guinness is the world’s largest brewer of stout beer, Ireland is not the world’s largest consumer of beer, an honor that belongs to the Czech Republic. (Ireland is down the list at #4.) Brewed in the St. James’ Gate Brewery, Guinness has been in production since 1759.

Today, the Guinness Storehouse is Ireland’s most popular tourist attraction. Located in a converted fermentation plant, it has been remodeled into the shape of a giant 7-floor, 14-million pint glass of Guinness.

• If you plan to visit Ireland, it’s a good idea to learn some of their vernacular, such as “the black stuff,” referring to a pint of Guinness. “Doing a legger” means you’re fleeing from the scene.

You might encounter an “eejit” or two, a person who you consider an idiot. If you’re “banjaxed,” it means you are broken, ruined, or no good. If a local asks if you want a bit of craic tonight, he’s not offering illegal drugs. It simply means he can find you a place to go where you can indulge in some genuine Irish fun.

• The Irish are famous for their soda bread, which was only introduced to the country during the 1840s, when bicarbonate of soda came into use there. The bread consists of soft flour, salt, baking soda for leavening (as opposed to yeast used in other breads), and soured milk to moisten the flour and activate the soda. Traditional soda bread has a cross cut into the top with a knife to ward off the devil and protect the household.

NOTEWORTHY INVENTORS:

ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL March 10 is Alexander Graham Bell Day, a good time to pay tribute to one of the most famous inventors of modern times.

Dine In | Take Out Monday-Saturday Sundays

11am to 9pm Noon to 9pm

70 Santee Rd. | Lincoln, ND 58504 | 250-8000

• A native Scotsman, born in Edinburgh in 1847, Bell came from a line of teachers of diction and elocution. His grandfather was noted for his treatment of speech impediments as well as authoring books on the principles of correct speech. Bell’s father had developed “Visible Speech,” a method of teaching the deaf to talk by studying the anatomical position of the speaking organs while making different sounds.

Bell’s mother was deaf; however, she was able to become a pianist, a skill she passed on to Alexander.

• In his younger years, Bell was educated at home, then attended private and public schools for three years. Even as a youngster, his curious mind was busy with thoughts of inventions. At age 12, while visiting a friend’s family’s grain mill, Bell observed the slow process of husking the wheat grain. Within days he had created a device that combined rotating paddles and sets of nail brushes that dehusked the wheat. He also came up with a talking doll that said, “Mama.”

by Samantha Weaver • Though they seemingly have little in common, early 20th-century American politician William Jennings Bryan and 19thcentury French author Honore de Balzac seemed to share a distrust of great wealth.

Bryan observed, “No one can earn a million dollars honestly,” and Balzac, echoing that sentiment, stated, “Behind every great fortune there is a crime.”

• A single speck of blood contains around 5 million red blood cells.

• At age 16, Bell had already accepted a teaching position at the Weston House Academy, teaching elocution and music. The family moved to Canada in 1870 when Bell was 23, and two years later, he moved to Boston to open a school for the dear as well as privately tutor the hearing-impaired. One of his first students was Helen Keller.

• You might be surprised to learn that ebooks are not a recent phenomenon; back in 1971 a man named Michael S. Hart began to digitize printed works, typing them in by hand. His first project -- The Declaration of Independence.

• Bell spent his evenings working on a device that would transmit the human voice over wires.

He hired a skilled electrician Thomas Watson, to help him. When the wealthy father of one of his deaf students heard of the experiments, he offered to financially support Bell’s work. After 2 years of laboring, in 1876, Mr. Watson heard Bell’s voice through the wire in another room in what is considered the first telephone call. At age 29, Bell was issued Patent No. 175,465, for “the method of, and apparatus for, transmitting vocal or other sounds telegraphically by causing electrical undulations, similar in form to the vibrations of the air accompanying the said vocal or other sound.”

• With a height of 321 feet, the Memphis Pyramid, completed in 1991, is the largest pyramid in the Americas, and the sixth-largest in the world.

• Woodrow Wilson is the only U.S. president who held a Ph.D.

• The Dalai Lama likes to repair watches as a way to relax.

• Before modern medical techniques became common, it was not unusual for people to be inadvertently buried alive. In 1819, the Doctor Regent of the Faculty of Medicine in Paris estimated that one-third to one-half of people who died in bed were, in fact, still alive when they were interred. This led to the invention of the “security coffin,” which was connected to a monitoring station by a long tube. If the presumed corpse did regain consciousness, food and drink could be transported through the tube while the coffin was exhumed.

• In ancient China, snail shells were used as currency. *** • Thought for the Day: “Good humor is a tonic for mind and body. It is the best antidote for anxiety and depression. It is a business asset. It attracts and keeps friends. It lightens human burdens. It is the direct route to serenity and contentment.” -- Grenville Klieser (c) 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL (continued):

• The following year the Bell Telephone Company was created, and Alexander married the deaf daughter of his wealthy patron. Less than nine years later, 150,000 people in the U.S. owned telephones.

• In 1915, Bell phoned Watson once again, this time for the first ceremonial transcontinental call. Bell called from New York City and Watson answered in San Francisco.

• On March 15, 44 B.C., Gaius Julius Caesar, dictator of Rome, is stabbed to death in the Roman Senate house by 60 conspirators, who believed that his death would lead to the restoration of the Roman Republic. However, the result was to plunge Rome into a fresh round of civil wars, destroying the republic forever.

• In addition to the telephone, Bell held 17 other patents, including hydrofoil boats, aerial vehicles, selenium cells, a metal jacket to assist in breathing, a device to locate icebergs, and the audiometer to detect minor hearing problems.

He is also credited with the metal detector, an invention he came up with quickly in an attempt to locate a bullet in the body of President James Garfield, after the president was shot by an assassin.

• In 1906, this genius with a vision said, “The day will come when the man at the telephone will be able to see the distant person to whom he is speaking.”

• Although he was a gifted inventor, throughout his life, Bell always referred to himself as “a teacher of the deaf.” When he passed away in 1922, the entire telephone system was shut down for one minute as a tribute.

• On March 11, 1888, one of the worst blizzards in U.S. history strikes the Northeast, dumping up to 55 inches of snow in some areas. In New York City, drifts reached the second story of some buildings and stranded passengers on elevated trains. Enterprising residents with ladders offered to rescue passengers for a fee.

• On March 14, 1919, Max Brand, perhaps the most prolific writer of Western stories, publishes his first novel, “The Untamed.”

Max Brand was one of 21 pen names used by Seattle-born author Frederick Faust. Unlike many Western authors, Faust made no pretense to historical accuracy in his works.

• On March 10, 1926, “Lolly Willowes,” the first Book-of-the-Month Club selection, is published by Viking Press. The Book-of-theMonth Club’s 4,000-plus members were not pleased with the tale of a spinster who takes up witchcraft, as the author was an openly gay woman.

• On March 12, 1930, Indian independence leader Mohandas Gandhi begins a defiant march to the sea in protest of the British monopoly on salt. Britain’s Salt Acts prohibited Indians from collecting or selling salt, a staple in the Indian diet. By picking one salt crystal off the shore, Gandhi had committed nonviolent civil disobedience.

• On March 13, 1969, “The Love Bug,” a Walt Disney movie about the adventures of a Volkswagen Beetle named Herbie, opens in theaters. The film centered on a down-on-hisluck auto racer who goes on a winning streak after teaming up with Herbie.

• On March 9, 1985, the first-ever Adopt-aHighway sign is erected on Texas’s Highway 69. The highway was adopted by the Tyler Civitan Club, which committed to picking up trash along a designated 2-mile stretch of the road. (c) 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

GIRL SCOUTS end you’ll wonder how you sympathized with him in the first place. Part of Philip’s creative process is unloading emotional burdens on others and wallowing in the fallout. Still, it’s a fun sort of dark comedy, watching a success grow less and less redeemable.

EDITOR’S NOTE: DVDs reviewed in this column will be available in stores the week of March 9, 2015.

PICKS OF THE WEEK Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb (PG) -- The kooky museum figures who come to life at night are in trouble -- their magic spell is fading and they have to go on a crosscontinental adventure to fix it! This third installment in the Ben Stiller action-comedy for kids takes museum guard Larry (Stiller) to London with his crew of animated exhibits -- notably Teddy Rosevelt (Robin Williams); Octavius, the tiny centurion (Steve Coogan); and Jedidiah, the tiny cowboy (Owen Wilson).

The movie is (supposedly) the last one in the series, and revs up audience-interest early on with the change of scenery and the sense of urgency in the plot. Without a whole lot left in the tank for these characters, the movie goes for a kind send-off to the historical goofballs.

Listen Up Philip (R) -- Philip’s soon-to-be released book will surely rocket him to the top of the literary world, landing him high among the geniuses. He’s a brilliant success, and it’s frustrating that nobody has realized it yet.

Jason Schwartzman plays the self-absorbed author, who ditches his girlfriend (Elizabeth Moss) to spend time on himself at a country home owned by his mentor (Johnathan Pryce).

This protagonist is just so unlikable, that by the

The Liberator (R) -- This Venezuelan historical epic chronicles the campaigns of Simon Bolivar, the revolutionary who fought against Spanish rule in South America. History buffs and those hoping for a nuanced character will be disappointed by the flat portrayal of Bolivar as a dashing and determined national hero. Edgar Ramirez has a fine track record playing complex and powerful characters in “Che” and “Carlos,” but the script and direction of this flick veers strictly for the simplistic interpretation.

Wolfcop (R) -- Sheriff Lou Garou (Leo Farfard) is a hard-drinking small-town lawman who has some terrible self-control issues. Wild and crazy demons give old Lou the curse of lycanthropy -- turning the hopeless drunk into a night-prowling werewolf of justice. With his redneck sidekick, Wolfcop doesn’t just take a bite out of crime, he rips crime into bite-size chunks. Instead of trying to be utterly terrible and hoping you’ll laugh, this obviously-inpoor-taste actually has a sense of humor and makes some good use of it. It’s not solid all the way through, but it makes for a fine grindtastic horror-comedy.

March 12 is the birthday of the Girl Scouts, the 103rd anniversary of the day Juliette Gordon Low gathered 18 Savannah, Georgia, girls together for the organization’s first meeting.

Let’s examine the history of this group and the fascinating woman who founded it.

• Juliette “Daisy” Gordon was born into a wealthy Savannah family in 1860 and attended an exclusive boarding school and French finishing school. After her marriage to a very wealthy Englishman, William Low, the couple moved to England.

• Daisy had experienced several ear infections prior to her marriage, leaving her nearly deaf in one ear. A fluke accident at her wedding robbed her of the hearing in her other ear. A grain of good-luck rice lodged in her ear and punctured the eardrum, bringing about an infection that completely destroyed her hearing in her good ear.

• After several years abroad, Juliette’s marriage ended in divorce, and she returned to the States. Because she had lived such a financially-privileged life, she longed to do something meaningful with her life. In 1911, she met Sir Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of the Boy Scouts, after which she determined her course of action.

• In 1912, Juliette invited 18 girls to the first meeting of the Girl Scouts, and they embarked on a mission of physical, mental, and spiritual development, along with community service.

The girls played sports, went on camping trips, studied the arts, practiced homemaking skills, learned first aid and survival skills, and sold war bonds. By 1920, there were 70,000 Girl Scouts across America. By the end of the 1920s, that number had grown to more than 200,000.

Juliette personally funded the organization for many years, selling off valuable personal jewelry to provide support.

• During the Great Depression, Girl Scouts could be found making quilts, gathering food and clothing for the poor, and volunteering in hospitals. During World War II, they planted Victory Gardens.

• The tradition of Girl Scout cookies dates back to 1917, just five years after Juliette Low founded the organization. A scout troop in Muskogee, Oklahoma, baked cookies and held a sale in their high school cafeteria as part of a service project. Over the next two decades, Girl Scouts across America held sales of cookies baked by their own troops, packaging them in wax paper, and selling door-to-door for 35 cents a dozen. In 1934, Philadelphia Girl Scouts became the first to sell commercially-baked cookies, and within two years, the national organization licensed the idea. During World War II, when there was a shortage of sugar, flour, and butter, the Girl Scouts sold calendars as their service project.

By 1948, 29 commercial bakers were licensed to bake the three varieties – peanut butter sandwich, shortbread, and chocolate mints. Today, cookie sales during the short eight-week time period the Scouts hold their sale are close to $790 million.

• A group of 18 girls in Savannah, Georgia, has grown to 3.9 million members worldwide today. More than 59 million American women are Girl Scout alumnae. In 1953, the Girl Scouts organization purchased Juliette Gordon Low’s Savannah birthplace and opened it as a museum and program center for girls.
