While attempting to design a strong adhesive, he instead developed an adhesive that was very weak. No immediate application was apparent, until 1974 when a colleague, Arthur Fry, conceived of using the adhesive to create bookmarks while contemplating a hymnal in his church choir.

| | | | | post-materialism: Encyclopedia II - Post-Confederation history of Canada - Post-war society During the war, the women's suffrage movement gained support. The provinces began extending voting rights to women in 1916, and women were finally allowed to vote in federal elections in 1918 (but only if they were over 21 years of age). Canada was also faced with the return of thousands of returning soldiers, with few jobs waiting for them at home. They also brought back with them the Spanish Flu, which killed over 50 00 ...

| | | | | | post-materialism: Encyclopedia II - Post-Communism - Etymological caveat As in the case of the term "communist state", it should be noted that "post-communism" is completely inaccurate if we use the original definition of communism (the one given by the communists themselves). None of the so-called "communist states" ever claimed to actually have a communist system, and therefore, technically, there is no such thing as "post-communism". However, those states were usually called "communist" in the West, because their ruling parties generally used the name "Communist Party of [country]", and it is in this context that the term post-communism must be understood. ...

Wiley Post - With Harold Gatty.
Like many pilots at the time, Post disliked the fact that the speed record for flying around the world was not held by an airplane, but by the Graf Zeppelin, piloted by Hugo Eckener in 1929 with a time of 21 days. On June 23, 1931, Post and his navigator, Harold Gatty left Roosevelt Field on Long Island, New York in the Winnie Mae with a flight plan that would take them around the world, making fourteen stops along the way in Newfoundland, England, Germany, the Soviet Union, ...

| | | | | | post-materialism: Encyclopedia II - Post-gangsta - Popularity/Future Post-Gangsta rap has been popular ever since it began and while it shows no signs of weakening as of 2005, it has become much more formulaic and has not made any progress to new sounds or ideas, which may signal a near end for the genre. Indeed, a minority of hip hop fans detest post-gangsta rap and prefer underground and old school rap which they see as more positive or at the least more musically valid and creative.
50 Cent is generally considered responsible for making hardcore rap current again, as prior to his music is was more a ...

| | | | | | post-materialism: Encyclopedia II - Jersey Evening Post - History The Evening Post was founded in 1890 by H.P. Butterworth, though only weeks after its launch, Walter Guiton — whose business printed it — acquired it.
The Post was produced sheet by sheet on a flatbed press until 1926, the year in which the introduction of the first rotary press was operated and oversaw by Guiton. He remained the main proprietor and editor until the following year, in which his son-in-law Arthur Harrison took over. The latter stayed in both positions until 1944, when his son, ...

| | | | | | | post-materialism: Encyclopedia II - Post-concussion syndrome - Prognosis For most patients, post concussion symptoms go away within a few days to several weeks after the original injury occurs (Merck, 2003). In others, symptoms may remain for three to six months (Evans, 1992; UCLA, 1999). In a small percentage of patients, symptoms may persist for years or may be permanent (UCLA, 1999). If symptoms are not resolved by one year, they are likely to be permanent (Legome, 2004). However, the prognosis for PCS is generally considered excellent, with total ...

| | | | | post-materialism: Encyclopedia II - Post-Occupation Japan - Economy The LDP government, through institutions such as MITI, encouraged Japanese industrial development overseas while restricting foreign companies' business within the country. These practices, coupled with a reliance on the United States for defense, allowed Japan's economy to increase exponentially during the Cold War. By 1980, many Japanese products, particularly automobiles and electronics, were being exported around the world, and Japan's industrial sector was the second-largest in the world after the U.S. This growth pattern continued unabated until the ...
