. . . other people will have to "step up" their posting if we are going to reach the new goal.

it is possible that some still aren't aware of the opportunity

believe it or not

when appropriate [ or perhaps when it is not appropriate ] I have been posting the latest rules with the link to the contest

and urging folks to go for the opportunity reminding them that it costs nothing to post enough to try to get into the raffle

_______________________

for example, a post where the OP is seeking info on a camera body


my suggestion to them and others is to try for the K 1 first via the contest

and if they don't win, then go after the camera body of their choice

Regardless of the politics, that union might have trouble getting members because they are too hard to say.

Not really a problem. I'd never noticed the name as anything special until I found it as an example of a "real" long word used in Norwegian. "Real" as in a word in actual use. Because we agglomorate words there's really no "longest word" - just add another word and you'll have a longer one.

One I remember from my student days was the law that introduced the hereditary absolute monarchy in Denmark (of which Norway was a province) in 1661: Arveenevoldsregjeringsakten.

Just like there are many flavours of bacon; although who would ever want to mess around with basic bacon flavour I will never know ;-)

Or a boy band

Nah, the boy band would be "The Pinking Shears of Confusion"....and the metal band, "The Pinking Shears of Consternation"

I thought pumpernickel is brown, what all colors does it come in?
Or what color does it turn when toasted?

" Pumpernickel: Real pumpernickel bread is made using a specific kind of flour called, appropriately enough, pumpernickel flour. This flour is made from coarsely-ground whole rye berries. In some traditional recipes, breadcrumbs left from other rye loaves are added to the dough for pumpernickel bread.

Pumpernickel loaves tend to be dense, dark, and strongly flavored. We think they're best enjoyed when sliced very thinly and preferably with a shmear of cheese and some thin-sliced smoked salmon!"
