Twix is a combination of the words Twin Sticks! Twix is made my Mars, Inc and was originally made in the UK in 1967. It didnGÇÖt make it to the US until 1979. Mars, Inc was founded in 1911 in Tacoma, Washington. The Twix is made of a biscuit with a thin layer of chocolate followed by a layer of caramel with the whole thing coated in chocolate.
Its name came from a combination of the words twin and sticks. Twix was called Raider in much of Europe until it was officially changed in 1991 to match its internationally known name.
Here in the US, the Twix bar is produced in Cleveland, Tennessee. There are many variations of the Twix candy bar. In North America we have the Twix Peanut Butter candy bar where peanut butter replaces the caramel.
Other interesting variants are the Twix Coconut, Twix Java, and Twix Mint. Many odd types of Twix were introduced in the early 1990s, but they didnGÇÖt last long at all.

Last saturday we joined up with one of Curatores Veritatis Alliance (CVA) fleet and ended up with 220 pilots in the fleet. We had a few engagements inbetween Catch and Providence before we titaned over to Stain and fought a Armor battleship fleet with carrier support (AAA). It was great fun and we will try to join in on similar ops in the future.

Both Sweden and the Soviet Union made plans to develop moose-mounted cavalries!
IGÇÖm sure thereGÇÖs a GÇ£Soviet RussiaGÇ¥ joke in this fact. How about, in Soviet Russia moose hunts you? Anyways as early as 1869, the Russian zoologist and explorer Alexander von Middendorff wrote to the TsarGÇÖs government about how the moose is an underutilized and unexpected war resource, and suggested that the government invest in domesticating it.
This idea didnGÇÖt go very far at the time, but it resurfaced in the 1930GÇÖs Soviet Union. It was suggested that moose cavalry could be efficiently used even in the deep snow. In 1934, the Soviet GovernmentGÇÖs Nature Reserve Comittee ordered the creation of moose reserves and breeding centers in support of the effort.
However, the idea had not materialized by the time WW2 came around, and thus it was swept away. Sweden also engaged and eventually failed in this plan. I guess the moose was just meant to be free. |

The Apollo 12 lunar checklist had small pictures of playboy models.
Apollo 12 was part of the Apollo program at NASA. It was the sixth manned flight in the Apollo program, and the second one to land on the moon. It went to the moon in 1969. Charles Conrad and Allan L. Bean walked on the moon while Richard F. Gordon stayed in the shuttle orbiting the moon.
It was a goal of the mission to land more precisely. There was a little bit of a rivalry between the prime crew, who were all from the Navy and the back-up crew, who were all from the Air Force. That rivalry resulted in a number of pranks back and forth between the two groups.
It was the back-up crew that played a joke on the prime crew, altering their lunar checklist slightly. What the back-up crew did was to add nude pictures of playboy models to the list. Each lunar checklist was attached to the wrist of their suits, and each page had its own small playboy cover page.
It was probably a shock for the two astronauts Conrad and Bean, and it just goes to show that your job is never too serious to have a little fun.

The longest personal name ever is 746 characters long!
The shortened versions include Mr. Wolfe+585 Sr, 585 being the amount of additional letters in his last name and Hubert Blaine Wolfe-¡schlegel-¡stein-¡hausen-¡berger-¡dorff Sr. This man also had 25 middle names.
His full name is Adolph Blaine Charles David Earl Frederick Gerald Hubert Irvin John Kenneth Lloyd Martin Nero Oliver Paul Quincy Randolph Sherman Thomas Uncas Victor William Xerxes Yancy Zeus Wolfe-¡schlegelstein-¡hausenberger-¡dorffvoraltern-¡waren-¡gewissenhaft-¡schaferswessen-¡schafewaren-¡wohlgepflege-¡und-¡sorgfaltigkeit-¡beschutzen-¡von-¡angreifen-¡durch-¡ihrraubgierigfeinde-¡welche-¡voraltern-¡zwolftausend-¡jahres-¡vorandieerscheinen-¡wander-¡ersteer-¡dem-¡enschderraumschiff-¡gebrauchlicht-¡als-¡sein-¡ursprung-¡von-¡kraftgestart-¡sein-¡lange-¡fahrt-¡hinzwischen-¡sternartigraum-¡auf-¡der-¡suchenach-¡diestern-¡welche-¡gehabt-¡bewohnbar-¡planeten-¡kreise-¡drehen-¡sich-¡und-¡wohin-¡der-¡neurasse-¡von-¡verstandigmen-¡schlichkeit-¡konnte-¡fortplanzen-¡und-¡sicher-¡freuen-¡anlebens-¡langlich-¡freude-¡und-¡ruhe-¡mit-¡nicht-¡ein-¡furcht-¡vor-¡angreifen-¡von-¡anderer-¡intelligent-¡geschopfs-¡von-¡hinzwischen-¡sternartigraum, Senior.
Yes, Mr Wolfe+585 is 'senior', he gave the exact same name to his son, Hubert Blaine Wolfe-¡schlegel-¡stein-¡hausen-¡berger-¡dorff, Jr., who learnt to pronounce his full name by the age of 3.
His long surname has an equally interesting meaning: "a descendant of Wolfeschlegelstein (one who prepared wool for manufacture on a stone), of the house of Bergerdorf (mountain village) who before ages were conscientious shepherds whose sheep were well tended and diligently protected against attackers who by their rapacity were enemies who 12,000 years ago appeared from the stars to the humans by spaceships with light as an origin of power, started a long voyage within starlike space in search for the star which has habitable planets orbiting and whither the new race of reasonable humanity could thrive and enjoy lifelong happiness and tranquility without fear of attack from other intelligent creatures from within starlike space."
So next someone spells your name wrong, be glad it isn't as long as Mr Wolfe-¡schlegel-¡stein-¡hausen-¡berger-¡dorff's.

A cat survived the sinking of three separate ships in World War Two, earning the moniker "Unsinkable Sam."
If youGÇÖve ever watched a war movie and felt unfazed by the countless dead bodies due to the survival of one precious animal, this article is for you. In the 2001 movie Pearl Harbor, after the chaos from the Japanese attack, one dog is seen amongst the wreckage, having survived unharmed. While in film this is used as a gimmick to distract audiences, it turns out itGÇÖs based in reality.
Unsinkable Sam was a cat aboard a German ship in World War II. Having cats aboard ships is something thatGÇÖs been common for hundreds of years mainly due to their ability to catch rodents. He first served on the Bismarck during its first and only mission on 18 May 1941. After a sea battle on 27 May, the Bismarck was sunk and only 115 of the 2,200 crew members survived.
Sam was found floating on a board later- by the British. The British then employed him (and named him Oscar) on the HMS Cossack, until it was hit by a torpedo on 24 October and sank three days later. Though 159 people died from the torpedo, GÇ£OscarGÇ¥ survived. He was officially named GÇ£Unsinkable SamGÇ¥ and was transferred to the aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal, which had played a role in the destruction of Bismarck.
Unfortunately, this ship also sank just days later on 14 November, once again due to torpedo. Sam survived again, and was described as GÇ£angry but quite unharmed.GÇ¥ The British decided to retire Sam to a seamanGÇÖs home in Belfast. There he lived for 14 more years. Who knows whyGǪ Sam still had at least 5 more ships before he was in real trouble no?

Did you know: A fact (derived from the Latin factum, see below) is something that has really occurred or is actually the case. The usual test for a statement of fact is verifiability, that is whether it can be proven to correspond to experience. Standard reference works are often used to check facts. Scientific facts are verified by repeatable experiments.
