" ... Among Julien Coudray’s one-of-a-kind creations are the Manufactura 1528 Masterpiece, like “Ville de Genève” depicting the city of Geneva’s coat of arms in the grand feu enamel and miniature techniques, “Le Raphaël des Fleurs” featuring Petitot’s “point by point” enameling technique and three hands that come together to form a flower, and “Amour & Psyché” illustrating angels using the grisaille enamel technique. In an unusual move, the Manufacture associated young children with the making of the one-off Manufactura 1528 Masterpiece for Only Watch 2013. The charity auction in support of the Monegasque Association Against Muscular Dystrophy benefiting research for Duchenne muscular dystrophy – which helps to spread awareness of this debilitating disease across the globe – raised €5,066,000 from a collection of 33 unique watches. The piece donated by Julien Coudray, inspired by the interpretation of the theme “Draw Me a Happy Child”, sold for €60,000. The hand-wound movement’s bridges showcase a hand-engraved and enameled depiction of the drawing of a five-year-old schoolchild from Le Locle, Switzerland. A total of 95 per cent of this watch was made from one kilogram of solid 18-karat white gold: movement, dial, case, crown and buckle. Functions include hours, minutes, central seconds, an enameled 18-karat gold four-year service display and a power reserve of more than 55 hours. The 39-mm case on a hand-stitched black alligator leather strap accommodates a 13-part dial in enameled solid 18-karat white gold, with grand feu enameled black-and-white domed indexes on an outer ring, a center made from guilloché 18-karat solid white gold and transparent blue enamel, and blued hands. ...

An Italian explorer, Cristoforo Colombo is of course most famous for his 'discovery' of North America. But a recent historical theory suggests that Columbus was not born in Genoa, Italy, and rather was a Portuguese nobleman who adopted the name when he moved to Spain -- and DNA from a skeleton might prove it. ...

" ... Shopping on Amazon’s web pages is easy, checking on delivery is a snap, and canceling an order is done with a smile. That is why Walmart must retool its whole operation in order to gain traction against the gorilla that is growing as an ever more popular market place. It must be bold. Walmart+ was introduced just before the pandemic as a response to Amazon Prime. But, every schoolchild knows Amazon Prime while few have heard of Walmart+. ... "
" ... When asked, “What would you do if you were president?” every schoolchild’s first response is: “I’d pass a law banning homework.” Now French élèves may need to find another answer, as President François Hollande has proposed exactly such a law, which would restrict school assignments to classroom work. The reason, he explains, is basic fairness: Homework increases inequality because it favors students with stable home environments. (Seriously.) So he would reduce France’s overall prosperity in an attempt to decrease the rich-poor gap, which is socialism in a nutshell. The result, as in all such schemes, would merely be to amplify other differences—and in any case, rich kids could fight the power by secretly studying at home. ... "
" ... With the invention of an efficient incandescent light bulb in 1879, Thomas Edison made artificial illumination available to the masses.
