Sunday's date is written the same backward and forward — for everyone in the world — which hasn't happened in 900 years    https://disrn.com/news/sundays-date-is-the-same-backwards-and-forwards-for-everyone-in-the-entire-world   by Daniel Payne · Jan 31st, 2020 3:18 pm Last Updated Jan 31st, 2020 at 4:01 pm Sunday, February 2, marks a unique calendar date, as it forms a palindromic day — one that is written the same both backward and forward . But this Sunday is more special than post palindromic days. In this case, the date rendered as it normally is in the United States — as month/day/year — is identical read both normally and reversed: 02/02/2020. However, in the numerous countries that follow a day/month/year format, the date is still the same either way. And in the many Asian countries that place the year first, it is still identical backward and forward. So whether you're in Europe, Asia, or the U.S., February the 2nd is a very spe...

From "Ask Reddit" loo-co cool

Finally, Faithful Fast Forward Fan Karen Shepard wrote to remind me that we are experiencing palindrome days. Palindromes are words or a series of significant numbers that read the same backward and forward. The most famous palindrome, of course, is "Madam, I'm Adam." So it can happen with dates as well. Starting yesterday, Karen points out, we have a series of 10 consecutive palindrome dates: 9/10/19 through 9/19/19. According to TimeandDate.com, as long as the date is written in the format M-DD-YY, every century has 9 years with 10 palindrome days in a row, and those years always occur in the second decade of the century. For example, every year between 2011-2019, 2111-2119, and 2211-2219 will have 10 consecutive palindrome days. This is true for previous centuries as well. And the month this happens corresponds to the last digit of the year. Amazing. Thanks for reading. There also are single words that are palindromes:...

When the police stop and ask you to say your ABC's and you're feeling fanciful to save time, and want to gather them all in a quick pangram like "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog," in such cases " Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow" or "Quick zephyrs blow, vexing daft Jim" is much preferred over "Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs."  Take my word. addendum:  https://people.howstuffworks.com/14-pangrams.htm 4.

Most of us know or probably have met someone who has suffered or is battling addiction and have seen these bad consequences. It’s refreshing when we see our friends and colleagues start trying to get a grip on their problem by seeking out professional help. Hospital treatment and rehabilitation is mighty expensive and sometimes insurance (if you have any) only covers a portion. This is where public and private employers can lend a helping hand. Some workplaces already utilize sick-leave banks. A normal protocol to qualify for such a program starts with donating a small amount of your own sick time. This accrued, along with others creates a bank of days, which helps pay for colleagues who desperately seek our help.    However, addiction is a delicate subject, considering anonymity, potential stigmas and such; but we have constructive ways to address this. Some employers use boards that vote on whether the sick person is justified or qualified in being granted some...

The Anagram Times: The Anagram Times Q&A with Russ Atkinson WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 28, 2015 The Anagram Times Q&A with Russ Atkinson In his former life as an FBI agent, Russ Atkinson chased white collar criminals and rapists and everything in between. Now retired, he chases letters and tortures them until they cough up the anagrams he wants. Read on for a special Q&A with The Anagram Times's crime reporter Russ Atkinson. Q  How did you get into anagrams? A  I've always enjoyed wordplay, witty dialogue, puns, palindromes, etc. My interest in anagrams probably increased after I became active in the  American Cryptogram Association (ACA) in the 1970s. Many of the cipher types they use are transposition types, in essence anagrams of the entire plaintext, so anagramming is a useful skill for the ACA. In 2007 I served as ACA president in 2007-2008. But even before that, as early as high school, I enjoyed crosswords and acrostics. My mother subscribed t...

--> Bombshell Synchronicities Within anagrams and palindromes Did you know Edgar Poe is A God Peer, that Stephen King is The Pens King , Clint Eastwood = Old West Action [1] and Darth Vader is Add Hart Rev ? What I am talking about is the synchronicity of anagrams and hidden meanings within everyday phrases and names As legend has it, the first words ever spoken, “Madam in Eden, I’m Adam” were a palindrome . Further fables assert, that immediately after this opening statement, the first thought balloon formed above Eve’s innocent head, reading, “SOS EVE SOS!” Pulitzer prize winner Dr. Douglas Hofstadter in his essay, The architecture of Jumbo , remarks about anagrams: “Why work so hard to model such a frivolous and atypical cognitive activity? I tried to answer this question in the article itself, but let me just add here that I think that such mental juggling is a very important, pervasive kind of mental activity that has nothing intrinsic to do wit...
