@mythologyandhistory The start of Perth sea breezes. #windsurfing season. No more thick wet suits and regular daily 20knot winds. Sitting around at the beach with friends saying a touch less wind or a smaller sail or foil would be good. I'm starting to get excited just thinking about it. Oh and the #afl grand final of course.

Wondering if there are means to make magnifying lenses accurately other than by trial and error or with maths?
Any #LensMakers #TelescopeMaking #Opticians around here? -

"Everyone should learn the #mythology of a place as well as its #history"
Oh yes. For example:-
Camelot (with Avalon in the distance)

I liked when Delta Goodrem's piano transformed into an unplayable platform.
Or when Finland's fairy's bowstrings broke.

Sometimes I go into YouTube & search for videos of "The Black Bottom" or the Charleston & imagine the 20 something year olds horrified #Victorian parents.
The contrast between these generations was just so much more extreme than anything us living generations can imagine!
(Video of the Black Bottom for your scandalous amusement:)

Did you know that #Korea has a #magical #dog breed?
The Sapsalgae are a fluffy, good-natured breed that is said to ward off evil spirits and bad luck. They are also majestically thick-coated, which almost led to their extinction during the #Japanese occupation of Korea.
The Japanese colonists used the dog's pelts as winter coats. By the 1980s they were down to 8 animals.
A geneticist saved their DNA & the numbers now are up to a few thousand.

Hehe nice! My dentist told me I have a "great spacious jaw" because I didn't need my wisdom teeth removed, they just grew perfectly fitted & straight... I conclude I'm very #neanderthal 🦷

Did you know that "do you plead guilty to the charges?" was once an unlikely question to be answered?
Until the 18th century, common #law had a clause in which a person charged with a capital #offence would be subjected to torture if they did not plead either #guilty or not.
Many defendants refused to plead despite this prospect, because if they did, their heirs would not inherit their property!
#Torture by crushing was used to either elicit a plead or #death.

Did you know #coffee was, according to #legend, discovered by accident?
In 850 CE, a #goat herder noticed that his goats liked to nibble on an unknown berry. Curious about their energetic behaviour, he tried the fruit himself.
Elated, he brought the fruit to the #Islamic leader of his village, who declared it evil. The berries were thrown into a fire.
The fruit emitted such a lovely smell that the religious leader added the fruit to water & drank it. Coffee quickly spread. -
The #Nintendo leak revealed some interesting #mythology about #Typhlosion !

Did you know that the #Egyptian Cobra has a #divine & #royal #history?
The large, venomous #snake was represented in 2 different #Ancient Egyptian #goddesses.
Cobra-headed Meretseger protected the Valley of the Kings & Wadjet protected both #kings & childbirth.
In Lower Egypt, the cobra topped crowns.
In 2011, The Bronx #Zoo had to inform the public that an Egyptian Cobra escaped its enclosure.
It was found 5 days later hiding & named Mia - “missing in action”.

Did you know that #invisibility cloaks are #real?
From the 2nd c's Cap of Hades to #Marvel 's Invisible Woman, magic that renders one #invisible is a common theme in #mythology & #scifi.
In 2006, #theoretical #physicist John Pendry figured out that light could be bent around an object so that it renders it invisible.
This led to many advancements in metamaterial science, known as 'metamaterial cloaking'.I've enjoyed this talk by Pendry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VO6IrynhjKs [start: 4:43min]
