But it’s also a very important biodiversity hot spot, and what that means is, essentially, it’s an area that has a mix or a lot of biodiversity in it that can be found nowhere else in the world.” ? Indeed, it’s one of the most biodiverse ecosystems on the planet, but it also unfortunately has the highest extinction rate — something Springer is working to combat via his role as the Caribbean program officer for Re:wild. ? The organization has over 500 partners in 80 countries, and its work in the Caribbean is a microcosm of sorts for Re:wild’s overall operations.

The latest show gripping millions? The Great Moose Migration, or Den stora ?lgvandringen in Swedish. Since 2019, Sweden’s national broadcaster SVT has livestreamed the animals’ annual spring migration, which is currently underway. The stream is on 24/7 for nearly three weeks; most of the time there are no moose in sight — but that makes it all the more exciting when they do pop up on screen. “Sleep? Forget it. I don’t sleep,” dedicated viewer Ulla Malmgren told the Associated Press. Watch the show.?

Science “It Was Jaw-Dropping”: Scientists Say They Found a New Color Never Before Seen by Humans gece33/ iStock Think you’ve seen it all? Think again (maybe). According to a new study published Friday, a brand new color never before seen by humans has been identified. The blue-green hue, dubbed “olo,” is “more saturated than any color that you can see in the real world,” co-author Ren Ng told BBC Radio 4, and isn’t normally visible to the human eye. ? To create the circumstances for olo to be perceived, Ng and his colleagues had five human subjects (three of whom were the researchers themselves) gaze into a tool called Oz vision, which beamed laser pulses into one of their pupils. There are three types of cone cells in the eye — S, L, and M — and each is sensitive to different wavelengths of blue, red, and green, respectively. In the real world, light that stimulates the M cone cells also triggers the nearby S and L cone cells. But the Oz tool enabled researchers to stimulate only M cone cells in the participants’ retinas, sending a unique color signal to the brain “that never occurs in natural vision,” they wrote. ? “We predicted from the beginning that it would look like an unprecedented color signal but we didn’t know what the brain would do with it,” Ng told The Guardian. “It was jaw-dropping. It’s incredibly saturated.” ? While some experts are contesting the claim that a truly novel color was discovered, the research does represent an innovative step forward in triggering specific cone cells, and the findings may hold potential to further the understanding of color bli

Wordsmith.orgThe magic of words MooT, MetaMooT, and UltiMooT - the semantics & etymology trilogy The world's toughest language game gets even tougher. mootgame.com How to sponsor? Apr 22, 2025 This week’s theme Dickensian eponyms This week’s words Podsnap Turveydrop Art: Kyd A.Word.A.Day with Anu Garg Turveydrop PRONUNCIATION: (TUHR-vee-drop) MEANING: noun: One who poses as a model of deportment: the way in which one conducts oneself. ETYMOLOGY: After Mr. Turveydrop, a character overly concerned with deportment, in Charles Dickens’ Bleak House (1852). Earliest documented use: 1877. The adjectival form is Turveydropian. NOTES: Mr. Turveydrop owns a dance school where he forces his son to do all the work while he parades around taking all the credit. As Dickens describes Turveydrop: “He was a fat old gentleman with a false complexion, false teeth, false whiskers, and a wig. ... He had everything but any touch of nature; he was not like youth, he was not like age, he was not like anything in the world but a model of deportment.” In short, he was deportment without depth, a walking, talking showroom dummy for etiquette. The word deport here means to behave or conduct oneself, especially in a dignified manner. The other sense of deport, to evict from a country, is a later development. Both are from Latin portare (to carry). USAGE: “Rose: ‘But gentlemen don’t catch up ladies like bags of meal, and poke them into carriages in this way. It is evident that you need looking after, and it is high time I undertook your society manners. Mac: ‘I’ll behave like a Turveydrop: see if I don’t.’” Louisa May Alcott; Rose in Bloom; Roberts Brothers; 1876. A THOUGHT FOR TODAY: On this 4th [of July], look beyond fireworks, parades, and pretentious patriots. Instead, celebrate whistleblowers and lamplighters who warn the people, speak truth to power -- risking their lives and fortunes defending our inalienable rights and independence against those who take our liberties away. -Thomas Drake, veteran and whistleblower (b. 22 Apr 1957) What are your thoughts?

No Friends on television, no Squid Game on Netflix, not even instant downloads of the latest novels on your Kindle. This was the world in which Charles Dickens published his stories, often one chapter at a time. Cliffhangers weren’t just a plot device, they were a publishing strategy. Dickens had a knack for creating unforgettable characters. Readers didn’t just love the characters, they started using their names in everyday speech. Thus were born Dickensian eponyms -- words born from names. Now it’s your turn: Do you have a favorite character from fiction? If this character became a word, what would it mean? Would Gatsby be a noun for someone who throws parties they don’t enjoy? Would Sherlocking mean excessive Googling before a first date? Share on our website or email us at words@.... Include your location (city, state). Podsnap PRONUNCIATION: (POD-snap) MEANING: noun: A smug, self-satisfied person. ETYMOLOGY: After John Podsnap, a character in Charles Dickens’ novel Our Mutual Friend (1865). Earliest documented use: 1865. NOTES: Podsnap is a pompous, jingoistic character, proudly immune to nuance. As Dickens describes him, “Mr Podsnap was well-to-do, and stood very high in Mr Podsnap’s opinion. ... Mr Podsnap’s world was not a very large world, morally; no, nor even geographically: seeing that although his business was sustained upon commerce with other countries, he considered other countries, with that important reservation, a mistake.” As Podsnap himself adds, “No Other Country is so Favoured as This Country. ... This Island was Blest, Sir, to the Direct Exclusion of such Other Countries as -- as there may happen to be.” Podsnap, the walking embodiment of moral myopia in a world so tight no unpleasant facts gets through. USAGE: “Podsnaps are delighted that England is breaking away from the continent, with its meddling bureaucrats and Napoleonic legal code (Podsnaps may say ‘Britain’ but they really mean ‘England’).” Podsnappery and its Reverse; The Economist (London, UK); Jun 23, 2018.
