1. Leonese Captain Alfonso Pérez de Guzmán, called
Guzmán The Goodman (in Spanish, Guzmán el Bueno) (1256-1309) and Madrilenian Colonel
Jose Moscardó-Ituarte (1878-1956)?
They both were
Spanish, and preferred that their enemies killed their respective sons rather
than surrender.
In 1293, King Sancho IV of Castile
and Leon , of the House of
Burgundy, commissioned Guzmán el Bueno to defend the port city of Tarifa , on the southernmost tip of the Iberian
Peninsula . The infant rebel Don Juan, king's brother, ally with
benimerines and nazaries (from Morocco ),
had seized a son of Guzman el Bueno and threatened to cut his throat if Guzmán did
not surrender. The brave father, before not keeping his word and loyalty to his
sovereign, threw his knife to the murderer so this one could fulfill his
threat.
During the Spanish Civil War, on Thursday 07/23/1936,
Colonel Jose Moscardó-Ituarte, who with the companion of about 1,100 armed men had
taken possession of the Alcázar of Toledo (Toledo Fortress) two days earlier, answered
a telephone call from the representative of the Frente Popular (Popular Front),
and chief in Toledo of the Izquierda Republicana (Republican Left), Cándido
Cabello, who informed him that he held prisoner Moscardó’s son, Luis Moscardó,
and would shoot him if Colonel Moscardó did not surrender the Alcázar, within
ten minutes. Moscardó, after a brief telephone conversation with his son, replied
Cabello: "You can save yourself the time, because I will never surrender
the Alcazar".
Cabello, seeing that the threats did not work out,
sent the teenager Luis Moscardó to the Provincial Prison. A month later he was
shot along with others imprisoned.
2. René Guillouzo, mayor from 1848 to 1870 of the port
city of Saint-Nazaire, in the department of Loire-Atlantique, France, and the LOCOG,
London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games [XXX Summer Olympics Games,
London 2012]?
They display
the wrong flags.
Mexican Empress Carlota* (1840-1927) [Marie Charlotte
Amélie Augustine Victorie Clémentine Léopoldine de Belgique, princesse de
Saxe-Cobourg-Gotha et impératrice du Mexique de 1864 à 1867], daughter of
Leopold I of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, first king of Belgium from 1831 to 1865, and
Queen Consort Princess Louise Marie of France, of the House of Orleans, travelled
to the Mexican port of Veracruz on July 13, 1866 to go on board the “Impératrice
Eugenie” ship to sail to France, and then go to Paris to ask for help from the
French emperor Napoleon III Bonaparte, and later to the Vatican in the Papal
States, to speak to Pope Pius IX (Giovanni Mastai Ferretti), due to the serious
problems the civil war or War of Reform was causing to her husband, Mexican
Emperor Maximilian of Habsburg, and Mexican conservative aristocrats or
notables.
* Wife of Archduke Ferdinand Maximilian Joseph Maria
of Austria, emperor of Mexico from 1864 to 1867, of the House of Habsburg
(1832-1867) [Erzherzog Ferdinand Maximilian Joseph Maria von Österreich, Kaiser
von Mexiko von 1864 bis 1867, aus dem Haus Habsburg].
When docking the ship in the port of Saint-Nazaire,
the mayor René Guillouzo, perhaps disoriented, accompanied by his City Council,
did not had a Mexican flag, so he picked up a Peruvian flag and made one of his
subordinates wave it to welcome to Mexican Empress Carlota and her small
entourage.
This incident probably caused a disagreeable
impression on the fragile mind of Carlota.
The XXX Summer Olympic Games London 2012 were held in London (capital of England and of the United Kingdom
of Great Britain and Northern Ireland), from Wednesday, July 25 to Sunday
August 12, 2012, although the opening ceremony and inaugural parade were on
Friday July 27, 2012.
During the women's soccer tournament, on the first
day, July 25, the flag of the Republic
of Korea (South
Korea ) was shown by mistake in the large electronic
display at Hampden Park in Glasgow , Scotland , before 20,150 spectators, instead of
the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea ’s (North Korea ’s) flag. The North
Korean eleven-soccer-footballer team left the grass field as a protest when they
saw that the flag that had been displayed was the South Korea ’s rather than their
country’s.
The furious players refused to warm up while the wrong
flag was displayed on the screen next to images of each of the athletes.
The start of the match between North Korea and Colombia was delayed for more than
an hour. The game began after a correction of the error was made. The London
Organising Committee of the Olympic Games (LOCOG) had apologized for the
blunder and said they would make their best efforts in order to prevent the
mishap might be repeated.
However, the Organising Committee's statement had to
be reissued and cast again, because they did not utilized the official titles
of the nations –-as the ones used by the International Olympic Committee, IOC,,
which are: "Republic of Korea" (for South Korea) and "The Democratic
People's Republic of Korea" (for North Korea).
3. Thomas Alva Edison (1847-1931) and the Spanish
engineer Juan de la Cierva
y Codorníu (1895-1936)?
They both were
inventors and had to build many prototypes to improve their inventions.
Edison obtained 2,332 patents, 1,093 of them in the United States of America , and 1,239 in other countries
such as the United Kingdom , France , Germany … Among other inventions seemingly
of his own, * highlight the ticker for reporting stock quotes in Stock Exchanges,
a mechanical vote recorder, electric car battery, phonograph, and several inventions
related to the film industry.
* Apparently of his own, perhaps, because there are
still many criticism toward Edison , in books
and on the Internet, accusing him of being a copycat of the genuine works of
inventors and plagiarist or thief of ideas and/or inventions.
About the alleged invention of the light bulb or
incandescent lamp by Thomas Alva Edison:
Years 1879 and 1880.
Thomas Alva Edison (1847-1931) did not invent the
light bulb, but introduced to the market the first practical and commercially
successful light bulb.
Some background and data about this invention were:
Alessandro Volta made a "bright wire" in
1800.
In 1806, Englishman Humphrey Davy showed to the Royal
Society an "arc lamp" light, a blinding electric spark produced
between two carbon rods and light like a welding torch, but it was too bright
for use in homes or offices and also consumed a tremendous amount of power, so
the batteries that powered the demonstration model of Davy were quickly
exhausted.
In July 1835, Scottish inventor James Bowman Lindsay
demonstrated a constant electric lamp at a public meeting in Dundee , Scotland .
He said he could read a book at a distance of a foot and a half (45 centimeters ).
However, he did little to patent it or to further develop the gadget.
In 1840, Englishman William R. Grove inserted a
platinum wire coil attached to two copper wires electrically charged within an
inverted glass beaker placed in a container or bowl with distilled water. Grove
said that the incandescent lamp emitted light "enough to read for
hours."
In 1841,
a British inventor named Frederick DeMoleyns patented a
bulb using the same technique used in combination with platinum and coal
burners, that became incandescent when an electric current was passing through
them. In 1845, DeMoleyns improved his invention, to remove as much air as he
could from the glass bulb, which helped to slow the rapid destruction of the
metal filament.
In 1845, an American named J. W. Starr received a
patent for a vacuum bulb in conjunction with a coal burner.
In 1859, electrical engineer and inventor Moses G.
Farmer produced an incandescent platinum filament. At age 39, in that year, he was
living in Salem, Massachusetts, and lit up the room of his house, at 11 Pearl
Street, with incandescent lamps, this was the first house in the world lit by
electric light; however, he and his wife were spiritualists and felt their
talents were a gift from God, so they should not be credited to any of their
own inventions, and did not continued their ideas to achieve commercial
success. Farmer also co-invented a self-excitable dynamo and an electric
generator.
Canadian inventor Henry Woodward and his partner,
fellow Canadian Matthew Evans, patented a light bulb in 1874 in Canada , and later, in 1876 obtained U.S. Patent number
181.613 and, not having enough money to manufacture commercially the product, they
sold the patent to Edison in five thousand
dollars.
In 1877, American inventor William E. Sawyer built an
apparatus and lighting system.
The English chemist and physicist Sir Joseph W. Swan
presented in Newcastle upon Tyne ,
England , in 1878, a light bulb. He
received a patent on November 27, 1880, which was the number 4933, after having
improved the original design of the lamp. However, apparently none of Swan’s
lamps proved practical for everyday use, one of the lamps used carbonized paper
that quickly crumbled after a short time of use.
Thomas Alva Edison, hired in 1878 physicist and
mathematician Francis R. Upton (1852-1921), from Princeton University, who also
had gone to study in Germany with the "wise scientist" Hermann von
Helmholtz (1821-1894), a German physician and physicist, who recommended Upton
before Edison, because he felt that Upton had great theoretical capabilities
and could be just the kind of genius that Edison was looking for. Edison had many ideas, but being self-taught, needed
someone with advanced knowledge of mathematics to make calculations and
research scientific literature to help solve very difficult problems. Upton was crucial to
Thomas Alva Edison. They worked together on many key inventions such as the
incandescent lamp, the watt-hour meter, the distribution of a parallel circuit
and the generator of constant voltage.
On October 22, 1879, some employees of Edison saw that a thin “carbonized” cotton thread lasted lit
for about thirteen and a half hours, during an experiment. Longer times were
achieved with improved air extraction from bulbs, creating a better vacuum
within these. They were testing more charred organic materials, and the
Japanese bamboo was the best. At the end of the 1880s, Edison ’s
carbonized bamboo burners lasted up to 600 hours.
Edison continued to improve designs, and on November
4, 1879 filed for a U.S.
patent, which was granted on January 27, 1880 under number 223,898, for an
electric lamp using "a carbon filament or strip coiled “and connected to platinum
contact wires.
The previous paragraph shows that Edison
lacked the faculty his opponent had, the inventor of the electric coil or Tesla
coil 1891, mechanical engineer and electrical engineer Nikola Tesla (Smiljan, a
city then belonging to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, today in Croatia, 1856-New
York, 1943). Tesla was an ethnic Serb.
In 1882 Nikola Tesla moved to Paris ,
and in 1884, to New York .
In 1891, the great genius of physics and electricity,
Nikola Tesla, invented the Tesla coil, which is an electrical resonant
transformer, consisting of a series of coupled resonant circuits.
In 1892, he invented the alternating current motor (AC
motor).
He was known for his many revolutionary inventions in
the field of electromagnetism, developed in the late nineteenth and early
twentieth centuries. Tesla's patents and theoretical work formed the basis of
modern electric power by alternating current (AC), which proved to be superior
to direct current (DC).
The stubborn Thomas Alva Edison (1847-1931) argued
otherwise, saying that the direct current (DC) was superior or better than
alternating current (AC).
Tesla was right.
The alternating current (AC) replaced the direct
current (DC) in most instances of electricity generation and distribution,
greatly expanding the range and improving the efficiency of electric energy
distribution.
Edison used to built many prototypes of his
inventions, Tesla instead had a faculty called "visual thinking"; he
could visualize an invention in his mind with extreme precision, including all
dimensions, before starting the construction phase. He did not use to draw
diagrams or sketches, but he conceived all of his ideas and arrangements of
parts of future devices only with his mind. He could even correct in his mind possible
future failures of his inventions, before starting to make a prototype.
Murcia-born engineer Juan de la Cierva , who had to build
about 120 prototypes until he got an excellent autogiro, like Edison ,
he had no "visual thinking".
4. Philosopher John Locke (1632-1704) and physicist
and chemist Michael Faraday (1791-1867)?
They both
were British, born in poor families and thanks to their intelligence and work managed
to highlight in society.
John Locke, the father of empiricism and modern liberalism,
who influenced Montesquieu, proposed that sovereignty emanates from the people
[not from God],* that property, life, liberty and pursuit of happiness are men’s
natural rights, prior to the formation of society. The State has as main
purpose to protect those rights, and also the individual freedoms of citizens.
* Locke's books were included in the Index Librorum Prohibitorum, the List of Prohibited Books, by the Roman Catholic
Church.
The revolutionary independence founding fathers of the
Thirteen Colonies, subject to the British Crown (George III, of the House of
Hanover, was the King), such as Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, "the
father of the U.S. Constitution," lavishly took advantage of the books by
Englishman Locke to write the Declaration of Independence (July 4, 1776), and
the U.S. Constitution.
Michael Faraday discovered benzene and electromagnetic
induction, and formulated the laws of electrolysis that bear his name. Thanks
to his research, there was a breakthrough in the development of electricity by
establishing that magnetism produces electricity through movement.
5. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (1956- ), president of the
Islamic Republic of Iran since 2005, and Anthony Bourdain (1956- ), a food
writer, chef, traveller and bon vivant?
They both
wear suit or jacket but no tie (Bourdain wear ties in exceptional cases), and
they were born the same year.
6. Germany Fuehrer Adolf Hitler (1889-1945) and
Mexican poet and essayist Octavio Paz (1914-1998)?
They often read
only a few of the first pages of a book, a few of the middle pages, and a few
of the last pages
Hitler used to do that when he was young, in order to
impress his friends. He memorized a few phrases and data from a book, and
seemed to have read the whole book. And in many cases, Octavio Paz acted
similarly, regarding reading only, not to bragging. His daughter Helena Paz
narrates it that way in her Memoirs –I have to make it clear the she does not
mention Hitler, in this case–. The Nobel Prize laureate Octavio Paz used to
read a few pages of a book, and while saying “Read!” to himself, then he placed
it on a table or desk, and swiftly took another book to do the same, to go onto
a quick and incomplete reading.
Now, we can suppose that Paz did read many books
thoroughly. Perhaps he chose some books for reading them completely, and
discriminated others, as “bad books”, and these ones were read partially only.
7. Heraclitus, Plotinus, Copernicus, René Descartes,
Blaise Pascal, John Locke, Baruch Spinoza, Gottfried Leibniz, Isaac Newton,
Georg F. Handel, Voltaire, Immanuel Kant, Ludwig van Beethoven, Arthur
Schopenhauer, Søren Kierkegaard, Friedrich W. Nietzsche, and Nikola Tesla?
They never
married. Schopenhauer was a misogynistic. Some of the others
did not want a wife and children that could take away some of their valuable
time and concentration to create philosophical doctrines, rediscover
heliocentrism,* invent the differential and integral calculus, write books,
compose symphonies, invent electricity appliances, et cetera.
* Aristarchus of Samos
(310 B.C.-230 B.C.), a Greek astronomer and mathematician, was, to our
knowledge, the first individual to speak and write about the heliocentric model
for the Solar System, 18 centuries before the Polish astronomer
Copernicus did the same.
8. Portuguese poet Luís Vaz de Camoens (1524-1580),
Spanish Princess of Eboli and Duchess of Pastrana, Ana de Mendoza y de la Cerda (1540-1592) and
English Admiral Horatio Nelson (1758-1805)?
All three were one-eyed. They could see with their
left eye only.
Camoens lost his right eye in a fight in Africa, where
he lived in poverty, "supported by his friends", until he was found
by his friend Diogo do Couto, who paid for his return trip to Lisbon , where he lived poor and sick. The
Portuguese King Sebastian I of Avis conceded him a modest pension, which was always
delivered late.
The very rich Princess of Eboli, the only daughter of
a powerful Castilian family, lost his right eye during a fencing training. She
had conflicts with the religious, doctor of the Roman Catholic Church, mystic
and writer Teresa de Cepeda y Ahumada, known as Teresa de Jesus, and also as
Teresa de Avila, founder of the Discalced Carmelites. Ana de Mendoza entered a
convent of that order, but she lived in a garden house, with her maidens, and
had lockers to store clothes and jewels, also she had direct communication with
the street and could go out at will.
English Admiral Horatio Nelson was shot in the face,
in 1794, in
Corsica , where he lost the sight in his right
eye. On 07/25/1797, in Santa Cruz de
Tenerife , a cannon shot hit him in the right elbow,
which caused him to lose the lower half of the corresponding arm. He died in
the last battle and triumph of his life, over the Franco-Spanish fleet at
Trafalgar (in the Atlantic, off the Spanish province of Cadiz ),
on 10/21/1805.
9. Former U.S. Secretary of State Doctor Henry
Kissinger (1923- ) and former Mexican President Doctor Carlos Salinas de
Gortari (1948- )?
They both, after leaving Office, have been writing
books.
Indeed, Doctor Kissinger has written many books since he
was a young. Following, there are mentioned but a few:
Nuclear
Weapons and Foreign Policy (1957).
The
Necessity for Choice: Prospects of American Foreign Policy (1961).
The Troubled
Partnership: A Re-Appraisal of the Atlantic Alliance (1965).
American
Foreign Policy: Three essays (1969).
A World
Restored: Metternich, Castlereagh and the Problems of Peace 1812-1822 (1973).
For the
Record: Selected Statements 1977-1980 (1981).
Diplomacy (1994).
Does America Need a
Foreign Policy? (2001).
On China (2011).
Doctor Salinas de Gortari has written: México:
Un paso difícil a la modernidad (2000). Mexico:
A Difficult Step to Modernity.
Democracia
Republicana. Ni Estado ni mercado: una alternativa ciudadana (2010). Republican Democracy: Neither State nor Market:
A Citizen
Alternative.
10. American Jack Johnson, "The Galveston
Giant" (Galveston, Texas, 03/31/1878-near Franklinton, North Carolina, 06/10/1946);
Japanese Masao Ohba (Tokyo, 10/21/1949-ibidem, 01/25/1973), Argentinean Víctor
Emilio Galíndez (Vedia, Buenos Aires Province, 11/02/1948-25 de Mayo, Buenos
Aires Province, 10/25/1980), Mexican Salvador Sánchez-Narváez (01/26/1959-Federal
Highway Querétaro-San Luis Potosí, 08/12/1982), Irish-American Billy Collins,
Jr., (Nashville, Tennessee, 09/21/1961-Antioch, Tennessee, 03/06/1984), and Argentinean
Carlos Monzón (San Javier, Río Negro Province, 08/07/1942-Los Cerrillos, Santa
Rosa de Calchines, Santa Fe Province, 01/08/1995)?
All of the
six were professional boxers and died in car accidents.
11. Hermes, Aphrodite, Gaia, Ares, Zeus, Cronus,
Uranus, Poseidon, Hades, Helios and Selene?
They were
Greek gods, and today…, nine planets, the Sun and the Moon
would be called after them, should astronomers and tradition had chosen the
Greek culture and not the Roman/Latin one for identification.
Notwithstanding, the Spanish scholar Elio Antonio de
Nebrija (1441-1522) once said: "Language was always the companion of the
Empire" (“Siempre fue la lengua compañera del imperio”) –referring specifically to the
Spanish Empire, but his phrase could be extrapolated to any empire, and History
tells us that the Romans or Latins were the conquerors of the Greeks, and not
vice versa.
12. Colors violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow,
orange, and red?
That these ones are the fundamental colors, and they form the visible spectrum to the human eye. The visible or solar spectrum is a tiny part of the very wide electromagnetic spectrum, and the seven colors are produced by the decomposition of white light, as demonstrated byNewton 300 years ago.
That these ones are the fundamental colors, and they form the visible spectrum to the human eye. The visible or solar spectrum is a tiny part of the very wide electromagnetic spectrum, and the seven colors are produced by the decomposition of white light, as demonstrated by
The wavelengths of visible light for the human eye
range from 400 to 750 nanometers (nm), from violet to red, or from 4,000 to 7,500
angstroms (Å). Some sources indicate that this range goes from 390 to 700
nanometers (nm). Other sources indicate that this range goes from 380 to 740
nanometers (nm).
These seven colors are located between the invisible
ultraviolet, with shorter wavelengths, and the invisible infrared, with longer wavelengths.
1 nanometer (nm) = 10 ^ -9 meters , id est: 0.000000001 m
1 angstrom (Å) = 10 ^ -10 meters , id est: 0.0000000001 m
A nanometer is one billionth of a meter:
10 ^ -9
m
A nanometer is one millionth of a millimeter:
10 ^ -6
mm
An angstrom is one ten-billionth of a meter:
10 ^ -10
m
An angstrom is one ten-millionth of a millimeter:
10 ^ -7
mm
The angstrom symbol: Å is obtained by pressing four keys:
(ALT) 143, and in the Unicode System, firstly you need to type four characters:
00C5, that is, you type: “zero, zero, c, five” and then, with the cursor
positioned immediately to the right of the fourth character (the “5” ), you must press two keys:
(ALT) X (press the “X” while holding down the ALT key).
The circumflex accent or caret, ^ is sometimes used in
mathematics, computer programming, and in other areas or disciplines, to
indicate raising to a power. In the present case, it is not used for
grammatical purposes, but for a mathematical one, for example, if you state:
3.14159265 ^ 2, you are saying or asking to raise π (pi) squared; the result is
9.8696.
The circumflex accent or caret: ^ is obtained by
pressing three keys (ALT) 94, and in the Unicode System, firstly you need to
type four characters: 005E, that is, you write "zero zero five e",
and with the cursor positioned immediately to the right of the fourth character
(the “e”), press two keys: (ALT) X (press the "X" while holding down
the ALT key).
People have been watching rainbows since the time of
the cavemen.
In Genesis, IX, 12-17, we can read that God spoke to
Noah, after the “universal” flood, about the installation of an arc (the
rainbow) as a signal for perpetual generations: there would be no more floods.
Actually, the rainbows have existed for hundreds of
millions of years, before the sharks * appeared in the seas.
* It is considered that the primitive sharks appeared
in the Ordovician period (488-443 million years ago) of the Paleozoic era. They
are survivors of the five mass extinctions, and are older than most animals,
including all land animals,
trees, and insects!
From an airplane, the rainbow can be seen as a
complete circumference, but often the colors are faded; up there, a rainbow can
be seen even as a circumference of white light.
In a rainbow, the arc with the larger diameter is red,
and the arc with the smaller diameter is violet, but when there are two
rainbows simultaneously, in the second rainbow, the colors are reversed: the
larger diameter arc corresponds to violet, and the smaller diameter is red.
Also the moonlight (which is actually light from the Sun,
reflected by Selene) can produce rainbows, but these are more strange, and
rarely can be seen.
The rainbow, or iris, is an arc of (primordially
seven) colors that sometimes forms in the clouds, when the Sun (or the Moon),
behind the viewer, refracts and reflects its light in the rain. This phenomenon
of decomposition of the white light can also be watched in the waterfalls, and
in the fogs or mists of dew sunlit in certain positions. You can take your home
hose, open the spigot, stand with your back to the Sun, and create an ad hoc spray, to produce your own
“personal rainbow”.
“Conventional wisdom”, when followed the teachings of
ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle* (384 B.C.-322 B.C.), argued that white
light is the purest form of light, but some 300 years ago the English physicist
and mathematician Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727), placed a glass prism in the
path of a sunbeam and demonstrated that sunlight decomposes in a spectrum, projected on the wall very close to the place
where Newton was stood. People were seeing rainbows for millennia, but
considered them little more than “pretty aberrations”, or “attractive curiosities”.
* Often, Aristotle held erroneous knowledge. Aristotle
argued, for example, that the eels were asexual and originated on earth, that
man has five senses: hearing, touch, taste, smell, sight, although some
scientists have proposed eight additional senses, and a number of scientists
have accepted six. 1 nociception or nocioception or nociperception, 2
equilibrioception or sense of balance, 3
kinesthesia, 4 thermoception, 5 interoception, 6 proprioception, 7
magnetoception, 8 electroreception.
It is debated whether human beings have the last two
or not.
Homing pigeons do possess magnetoception. The sense of
magnetoception allows them to detect the Earth's magnetic field to perceive
direction, altitude and location.
Also, the magnetotactic bacteria, the fruit fly, and
some bats, possess this sense.
Regarding electroreception, some fish such as
lampreys, sharks, including hammerheads, and rays (known in some countries as
stingrays) possess it.
Also the strange mammal called platypus has it.
You can find some articles written about several of
the “new” senses:
Likewise, the Wikipedia in English mentions some of
these, as individual items, articles, or entries.
Kindly go to www.google.com
and please type in the search box, the word “Wikipedia” (without quotation
marks) and the name of the (“old” or “new”) sense you want to look for; then press
“Enter”, and voilà.
That being said, we have to mention the so-called
sixth sense: intuition.* But physicians, neurologists and psychologist have not
reached an agreement on it, yet. Who knows? In Italian: Chi lo sa?
*Intuition: “the power or faculty of attaining to
direct knowledge or cognition without evident rational thought and inference”.
Nevertheless, we must be lenient with Aristotle, since
he lived some 2366 years ago, and science was not then what it is today
(truism).
The American rock singer-songwriter Alice Cooper (his real
name is Vincent Furnier [Detroit ,
Michigan , 1948- ]) recorded in
1976 for the Warner Brothers Record Company a long-play record, titled Alice Cooper Goes to Hell.
The song number 5 from the B side of the vinyl record is
called “I'm Always Chasing Rainbows”, composed circa 1917 by J. McCarthy and H.
Carroll, and published in 1918 by Robbins Music Corporation Company.
In YouTube there are versions by Judy Garland
(1922-1969), Alice Cooper, Barbra Streisand (1942- ), and other singers.
