pe It Happened Here: The Invention of Santa Claus By www.nyhistory.org Published On :: Thu, 12 May 2011 15:50:31 +0000 Though legend has it that Santa Claus hails from the North Pole, he was actually a New Yorker who came into the world on West 23rd Street in what is now the trendy Chelsea neighborhood. End Date: January 8th, 2012Nov 25 2011 to Jan 8 2012Teaser Image: Friday, November 25, 2011 to Sunday, January 8, 2012Start Date: Friday, November 25, 2011Teaser Image Caption: Thomas Nast and George Webster. Santa Claus and his works. New York: McLoughlin Bros., ca 1870. New-York Historical Society, YC1870.Web. Though legend has it that Santa Claus hails from the North Pole, he was actually a New Yorker who came into the world on West 23rd Street in what is now the trendy Chelsea neighborhood. The modern Santa was born in the imagination of Clement Clarke Moore, a scholar who penned a whimsical poem about St. Nicholas, the patron of old Dutch New York, for the amusement of his six children at Christmastime. Soon after the publication of "A Visit from St. Nicholas"—popularly known today by its opening line, "Twas the night before Christmas…""—St. Nicholas became a popular feature of American Christmas celebrations. Moore's poem permanently connected St. Nicholas to Christmas, and led to our idea of Santa Claus. Santa's popularity, appearance and many of the holiday traditions that surround him owe much to the imaginative work of two other New Yorkers: Washington Irving, the creator of Knickerbocker's History of New York, and Thomas Nast, an artist whose drawings of Santa were reproduced all over the country in the years following the Civil War. To celebrate the winter season, the New-York Historical Society is presenting It Happened Here: The Invention of Santa Claus, an installation tracing the modern image of Santa Claus, the red-suited, pot-bellied descendant of the medieval bishop St. Nicholas of Myra, which emerged only decades after the first Congress met in 1788 in Federal Hall in New York. The exhibition features Robert Weir's 1837 painting of a rather sly St. Nicholas and Thomas Nast's Harper's Weekly cartoons of Santa. Clement Clarke Moore's desk is on display in the Henry Luce III Center for the Study of American Culture.Relating Tags: Santa ClausChristmasPoetryWashington IrvingResources: Video excerpt: The Santa Files with John Sergant (c) 2010 Fine Stripe Productions.

pe CSS character escape sequences By mathiasbynens.be Published On :: Mon, 12 Jul 2010 11:57:08 +0200 When writing CSS for markup with weird class or id attribute values, you need to consider some rules. For example, you can’t just use ## { color: #f00; } to target the element with id="#". Instead, you’ll have to escape the weird characters (in this case, the second #). Doing so will cancel the meaning of special CSS characters and allows you to refer to characters you cannot easily type out, like crazy Unicode symbols. Full Article
