Herkimer diamond

Herkimer diamond is the misnomerous name for double-terminated quartz first discovered in exposed outcrops of dolostone at Little Falls in Herkimer County, New York and the Mohawk River Valley. They became largely recognized after workmen discovered them in large quantities while cutting into the Mohawk River Valley dolostone in the late 1700s. Geologists discovered exposed dolostone in Herkimer County and began mining there. The popularity of mining for double-terminated quartz in the Herkimer County outcroppings is what lead to the name, Herkimer diamonds. Currently, Herkimer diamonds can be found in large quantity in at least Herkimer, Fulton, and Montgomery counties.

These quartz crystals, which formed extremely slowly in small pockets or vugs, have 18 facets (6 sides) and two terminations. They can be found clear, cloudy, or even containing a variety of rare impurities. Impurities (rare and general) can include clusters, scepters, enhydro, phantom, and bridge crystals. An enhydro contains a water pocket within the crystal, and a phantom is a crystal which contains an image of itself within.

The crystals referred to unofficially as “Herkimer Diamonds” are officially known as “Little Falls Diamonds” because they are found in a rock formation called “Little Falls Dolostone.”
Some years ago a resident of the village of Herkimer bought one of the diamond mines, and started calling the crystals Herkimer Diamonds, although none are found in the village. They are abundant in the City of Little Falls, and the public library there has a large display of the crystals.

    Acasta Gneiss

    The Acasta Gneiss is a rock outcrop of Archaean tonalite gneiss in the Slave craton in Northwest Territories, Canada. It is the oldest known crustal rock outcrop in the world. The Acasta Gneiss is named for the nearby Acasta River east of Great Slave Lake some 350 km north of Yellowknife. The rock exposed in the outcrop formed just over four billion (4 x 109) years ago; an age based on radiometric dating of zircon crystals (4.03 Ga orthogneisses (Bowring & Williams, 1999), which are the oldest rocks in the world so far).

    In 2003 a team from the Smithsonian Institute collected a four-tonne boulder of Acasta Gneiss for display outside the National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, D.C.

    The Acasta outcrop is found in a remote area of the Tlicho land settlement.

    According to some timings of the geological periods, it was formed in the Basin Groups unofficial period of the Hadean eon, which came before the Archean: see Timetable of the Precambrian.

    Starship Billion Year Bunker is a fictional space ship from the Douglas Adams short story Young Zaphod Plays it Safe.

    The Starship Billion Year Bunker was commissioned by the Galactic government to carry certain “by-products”, such as aorist rods and biological weapons. The crew was to steer the ship towards a black hole, where it would be sucked in and forever be destroyed. However, the captain took a detour to his home planet because he wanted some of the lobsters that were in abundance on the planet. The ship crashed into the water.

    Baby Pac-Man

    Baby Pac-Man is an arcade pinball/video game hybrid made by Bally Midway in 1982. Upon inserting a coin, the game begins its typical maze-style play like in the original Pac-Man, but upon entering an “escape” tunnel, a pinball is launched below on the main playfield where the player can gain extra points. The monsters are noted for being extremely aggressive, fast, and unpredictable, frequently breaking the rules of movement established in Namco’s official Pac-Man games. Also, the game initially starts off with no energizers: the player is forced to earn them in the pinball portion of the game, making Baby Pac-Man notoriously difficult despite its infant hero.

    Description from the arcade flyer:

    Mr. and Mrs. Pac-Man beam with pride as Baby Pac-Man follows in his parents’ dot-chomping footsteps. A video game with a great pinball feature, Baby Pac-Man leads you where neither video nor pin has gone before.
    Game action begins with the ever-popular Pac-Man maze where Pac-Baby happily munches away on white dots. However there are no helpful energizers to help you fight against the deadly monsters. Make your escape to the pinball playfield and enhance your video action by earning energizers, tunnel speed-up, and valuable fruits.

    Minor suit

    In contract bridge the minor suits are diamonds () and clubs (). They are given that name because contracts made in those suits score less (20 points per contracted trick) than contracts made in the major suits (30 points), and they rank lower in bidding. In particular, one can make game with a bid of 4 in a major suit, while a bid of 5 is required in a minor. Of the two minor suits, diamonds () rank higher than clubs ()

    Queen: The eYe

    Queen: The eYe is a 3D action/adventure electronic video entertainment game that was released in 1998 by Electronic Arts, a game company and featured music by the rock group Queen. The game is set in the future where the world is ruled by an all-seeing machine called “The eYe” which has eradicated everything that promotes creative expression. You play Dubroc, a secret agent of The eYe who in the course of his duties has re-discovered a database of popular rock music, and is sentenced to death in “The Arena”, a live television show broadcast through satellites to the world in which the contestant battles fighting arena champions called the Watchers… from there Dubroc, the secret agent, goes on a quest to destroy The eYe. Elements of the story do seem to bear a remarkable resemblance to that of the later Queen musical, We Will Rock You.

    The game contained five CDs which, along with the electronic files in the game itself, featured electronical instrumental remixes of many Queen tracks [1] and is considered a collector’s item by fans due to this music. Despite Queen’s popularity the electronic game suffered poor sales due to weak gameplay, very little promotion and graphics that already seemed dated at release due to the electronic video entertainment software-based game’s unusually long development time.
