Esperanto is a constructed or artificial language created by L. L. Zamenhof, a Warsaw eye doctor in 1887. While not an official language of any recognized nation, it is in several educational systems, including China who has used it since 2001 on its state-run news site china.org.cn.

Hint:

In 1926, a Mississippi farmer sent President Calvin Coolidge a live racoon intending it to be eaten for Thanksgiving. Coolidge had no desire to eat racoon, so him and his wife kept it as a pet. She was named Rebecca. The racoon was allowed free reign of the White House and was known to unscrew lightbulbs, open cabinets and unpot houseplants. They built her a house in one of the trees on the White House Lawn, and even took Rebecca along with their two dogs and a canary on an 1800-mile train trip for a vacation to the Black hills of South Dakota. Sadly, when Coolidge left office in 1929, Rebecca was given to the Rock Creek Park Zoo (Now the National Zoo) but she never adapted to zoo life and died shortly after.

Hint:
The town of Coventry in central England is where the myth/story of Lady Godiva comes from. Somewhere around the early 12th century the story appeared of Lady Godiva, the wife of the Earl of Mercia and Lord of Coventry riding through the streets of Coventry n**e after the Earl stated he would only lower taxes if she were to do so. She called his bluff by riding in the buff and he relented and lowered taxes. Some 400 or so years later, the story was added to with the legend of “Peeping Tom” who was struck blind or even killed he couldn’t resist and “peeped”. While there was a Lady Godiva and Earl Leofric of Mercia, the ride sans clothes and her peeper is the stuff of legend. Coventry has long embraced the legend, building a large clock in the city center where every hour, Godiva rides out on her horse with Tom poking his head out from above to Peep on her.

Hint:

In 2001, sign artist Richard Ankrom took it on himself in what he called Guerilla Public Service to improve a sign on the 110 freeway in LA. Where the 110 meets I-5, the exit from the 110 North to I-5 North was poorly marked and exited from the left lane, causing confusion on unfamiliar motorists. So, He painstakingly researched the correct size, material and color of the interstate freeway number sign, even getting the correct round reflectors. then hand manufactured an I-5 red, blue and white indicator along with a simple sign with the word North on it, even adding a slight layer of "age" to it. Then in the early morning hours on August 5, 2001 he attached his addition on the much larger 110 Pasadena sign over the left lane to indicate that was the lane needed to take the exit. The sign was so good, it went unnoticed for 9 months, when a friend leaked the story to the press and Richard posted his edited documentary of the entire process on a pre-youtube video site. Caltrans when reached for comment said, while they didn't approve of his methods, they could not deny the quality of his work, even joked they had a job application for him. Caltrans left the addition on the sign for 8 years, until the large sign was replaced, with a similar I-5 North indicator. Unfortunately no one thought to save his original sign and it was mistakenly destroyed. Here is a link to the complete story with Richard's video documentary. Sometimes art has to imitate life.

Hint:
From 1970 until 1985 Pl***oy published aproximately 1000 monthly editions in braille. It had no pictures and was printed on plain white paper. The cost of the printing was funded by the Library of Congress to the tune of $103,000 a year. In 1985 the House of Representatives, led by Ohio's Charlmers Wylie voted 216 to 193 to cease publication. Following the vote, the American Council of the Blind, Blinded Veterans Assc. and the American Library Assc. sued the Library of Congress and the National Library Service on the grounds of censorship and discrimination. In 1986 the ban on the braille publication of Pl***oy was lifted and it was published until 2021 when the magazine stop all printed publications. Turns out some people really did read it for the articles.

Hint:

The California Coastal Records Project photographed the entire California coast line to document coastal erosion. In 2003 Barbara Streisand objected to a photograph that included her Malibu estate and filed a $50 million lawsuit for its removal. The picture had only been viewed 6 times prior to the lawsuit with two of those being Streisand's lawyers. She lost the case and was ordered to pay $177,000 in legal fees to the photographer. The notoriety resulted in the photo being viewed over 500,000 times in the next few months. Two years later A tech-blog writer coined the term "The Streisand Effect" and defined it as an unintended consequence of attempts to hide, remove, or censor information, where the effort instead backfires by increasing awareness of that information.
