Honorificabilitudinitatibus

The longest word in the English
language featuring alternating consonants and vowels,
honorificabilitudinitatibus appears only once in Shakespeare's works—in
Love's Labour's Lost (1598). Its use has been cited by Baconists as
evidence that Francis Bacon was the real author of Shakespeare's plays. They see
in it an anagram for hi ludi, F. Baconis nati, tuiti orbi, meaning "these
plays, F. Bacon's offspring, are preserved for the world." What does the
original word mean?

The Old
Man of the Mountain Collapses (2003)

The Old Man of the Mountain was
an iconic rock formation in the Franconia Notch mountain pass of New Hampshire.
Protruding from the side of a cliff, about 1,200 feet (366 m) above a lake, it

Ground
Warmer below Wind Farms

Humans have been using wind power for
millennia, and in the past several decades, as part of an effort to reduce
greenhouse
gas
emissions linked to global warming, there has been a surge in the number
of power-producing
wind farms.
However, this so-called
clean energy
source
may also have unintended weather effects. Measurements of ground
temperatures around wind farms show that nighttime temperatures on the ground
have increased, likely because the
turbines'
blades pull down warmer air as they spin. Over about a decade, the nighttime air
around the wind farms became about 1.3° F (0.72° C) warmer, compared with the
surrounding area.
