Fun Facts…Cities Part 1
There are officially more than 50,000 cities around the world.
According to the United Nations, 2007 was the year in which the population of the world shifted so that more than 50% of the people worldwide lived in cities, not rural areas, for the first time in human history.
Rome was the first city in the world to attain a population of 1,000,000 people. Incredibly, historians estimate this landmark was reached more than 2,000 years ago in 133 BCE.
The first city in the world to be home to more than 5,000,000 people was London in 1900. In fact, London was the biggest city in the world until it was overtaken by New York in 1915.
With a total population of more than 37 million people, the world’s most highly populated city is Tokyo.
Zagreb, Croatia, is the only capital city in the world whose name begins with Z.
The world’s largest French-speaking city isn’t Paris – it is Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Republic of the Congo in Central Africa.

The Price Per Barrel Editor: Who divides up the price of gasoline at the pump, LL?
The Tax Cat: This article is an excellent source of facts. If you can read, you will see that the federal and state governments make MORE than the oil companies from gasoline.
Anyone who speaks of BIG OIL robbing us is retarded or misinformed. The government taxes are the thieves.

A nice short article.

Astronomy Picture of the Day
Messier 2
Image Credit: ESA/Hubble & NASA, G. Piotto et al.
Explanation: After the Crab Nebula, this giant star cluster is the second entry in 18th century astronomer Charles Messier’s famous list of things that are not comets. M2 is one of the largest globular star clusters now known to roam the halo of our Milky Way galaxy. Though Messier originally described it as a nebula without stars, this stunning Hubble image resolves stars across the cluster’s central 40 light-years. Its population of stars numbers close to 150,000, concentrated within a total diameter of around 175 light-years. About 55,000 light-years distant toward the constellation Aquarius, this ancient denizen of the Milky Way, also known as NGC 7089, is 13 billion years old. An extended stellar debris stream, a signature of past gravitational tidal disruption, was recently found to be associated with Messier 2.
