12. Hallmark Cards is a private, family-owned U.S. company. Hallmark is the
oldest and largest manufacturer of greeting cards in the United States.
“Hallmark holiday" is a term used predominantly in the United States to
describe a holiday that is perceived to exist primarily for commercial
purposes, rather than to commemorate a traditionally or historically
significant event. Some people also consider that this company wanted
to expand its business and Christmas and New Year were not
generating enough. So, they created something that resulted in sale of
nearly 6.5 billion greeting cards in America alone, thus generating
between $7 and $8 billion revenue. What?

117. In 2006, Geir
Lundestad, permanent secretary of the Committee, lamented, “The greatest
omission in our 106-year history is undoubtedly the committee’s failure to give
the prize to Mr M
“M could do without the N. Whether the N can do without M is the question.” He
was nominated 12 times for this prestigious prize but failed to receive it every
single time. Many of his followers would go and win the N prize and dedicate it to
Mr. M. Give me N(1), M and why it was not given in 1948 (1).
122. The M movement is a political movement that started online on
May 2018 and led to demonstrations that began in N (country)
and spread to all of Europe to Iraq. The reason to choose this
symbol was-in 2008 a law in country N required all the motorist
to have high visibility M in their vehicles as a result M were
widely available, inexpensive and symbolic.

145. In the 1994 Oscar-winning movie Forrest Gump, there’s a short scene

investment after his former military colleague and business partner

mark the end of festivities and the start of the game. Originally, the guest
performed this from his/her place in the grandstand, but the ritual changed after
President Ronald Reagan who went to the field. President William Howard
Taft started this American tradition in 1910 at Griffith Stadium, Washington, D.C.,
on the Washington Senators' Opening Day. Every President in office from Taft to
Obama has complied with the tradition, either for Opening Day, the All-Star Game,
or the World Series, usually with much fanfare. What tradition ?

172. When you think about the name of this character it is quiet unusual for him
to have such a name. Actually the naming of this character comes from a
misunderstanding between the artist and the animator. When the Animator
asked the artist to draw a rabbit, the artist complied and captioned the
drawing sheet with a part of animator’s name. When the rabbit had appeared
in a few cartoons, the producer looked at the old sketch sheet for his name.
He saw the caption and the rest is history. He was the first character to be on
the list?
184. Created by A.A. Milne he named the character on his son’s toy
bear. A Canadian black bear he often saw at London Zoo, and
“M", a swan they had met while on holiday. The bear cub was
purchased from a hunter for $20 by Canadian
Lieutenant Harry Colebourn in White River, Ontario, Canada,
while en route to England during the First World War. He
named the bear “M" after his adopted hometown
in Mpeg, Manitoba. “M" was surreptitiously brought to
England with her owner, and gained unofficial recognition
as The Fort Garry Horse regimental mascot. Colebourn left M
at the London Zoo while he and his unit were in France; after
the war she was officially donated to the zoo, as she had
become a much loved attraction there.
