(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
A globe is a three dimensional speroid representation of a place, usually of a planet. Globes are the only geographical representation of Earth that has no distortion. Spheres such as the Earth are mapped onto a flat surface using a map projection with an inherent degree of distortion. These projections can either enforce angle preservation or area preservation.Source: adapted by the editor from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia under a copyleft GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) from the article "Globe."

The Globe and Mail is a large Canadian English language national newspaper based in Toronto.The paper was founded as The Globe in 1844 by George Brown, who was later a Father of Confederation.
Through the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the newspaper grew from a local Toronto affair to a national one, adopting the masthead slogan "Canada's National Newspaper" in the process.
In 1936, after a merger with the Mail and Empire, the Globe became the Globe and Mail. In 1962, the paper added its popular Report on Business section.
In 2001 the paper was sold to BCE Inc, also owners of the CTV network. The network and paper are now run under the Bell Globemedia division, and several reporters from one of the outlets frequently appear on the other.
Editorially, the Globe and Mail has historically been a conservative paper, though in the past few years it has increasingly become more liberal, especially when compared to its chief rival, the National Post. Due to the competition from the Post the paper has made other changes, such as the introduction of colour photographs and the creation of the "Review" section on Arts and Entertainment.

Lexicography | Devil's Dictionary | DEPUTY, n. A male relative of an office-holder, or of his bondsman. The deputy is commonly a beautiful young man, with a red necktie and an intricate system of cobwebs extending from his nose to his desk. When accidentally struck by the janitor's broom, he gives off a cloud of dust. "Chief Deputy," the Master cried, "To-day the books are to be tried By experts and accountants who Have been commissioned to go through Our office here, to see if we Have stolen injudiciously. Please have the proper entries made, The proper balances displayed, Conforming to the whole amount Of cash on hand -- which they will count. I've long admired your punctual way -- Here at the break and close of day, Confronting in your chair the crowd Of business men, whose voices loud And gestures violent you quell By some mysterious, calm spell -- Some magic lurking in your look That brings the noisiest to book And spreads a holy and profound Tranquillity o'er all around. So orderly all's done that they Who came to draw remain to pay. But now the time demands, at last, That you employ your genius vast In energies more active. Rise And shake the lightnings from your eyes; Inspire your underlings, and fling Your spirit into everything!" The Master's hand here dealt a whack Upon the Deputy's bent back, When straightway to the floor there fell A shrunken globe, a rattling shell A blackened, withered, eyeless head! The man had been a twelvemonth dead. Jamrach Holobom |
