Interesting Stuff

Dolichostenomelia

Medical description of people who are tall and slender with long limbs (dolichostenomelia) and digits (arachnodactyly)

Emins

Emims are giants like the Anakims referenced in the Bible.

"The Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims";Bible Deut.2:10

Adora

Adroa is a god of the Lugbara people of central Africa. Adroa has two aspects: one good and one evil. He is the creator of Heaven and Earth, and he appears to those about to die. Adroa is depicted as a tall, white man with only half a body – one eye, one arm, one leg, one ear.

Tall Blacks

The Tall Blacks is the nickname of New Zealand's national men's basketball team. The name was chosen as it reminds people of New Zealand's Rugby Union team, the All Blacks. For sponsorship reasons, they are often referred to in New Zealand media as the Burger King Tall Blacks.

The Tall Blacks competed at the 2000 Sydney Olympics and finished with a 1-5 record, their only win coming against Angola in the playoff for eleventh.

In 2001 they defeated Australia in a three-game series to qualify for the 2002 FIBA World Championships in Indianapolis. At the tournament they finished fourth, after beating Puerto Rico in the quarter-finals before losses to Yugoslavia and Germany. Tall Blacks captain Pero Cameron was the only non-NBA player named to the all-tournament team in Indianapolis.

The Tall Blacks qualified for the 2004 Athens Olympics but again finished with a 1-5 record and lost to Australia in the playoff for ninth place. Their most noted moment was on the 7th day of the games, when they beat Serbia and Montenegro (the world champions) 90:87.

Probably the most well-known New Zealand player in the National Basketball Association is San Antonio Spurs forward Sean Marks, who is in his fifth NBA season. Another New Zealand player, former University of Wisconsin star Kirk Penney, signed in 2005 with two-time defending Euroleague champions Maccabi Tel Aviv.

   -  He that climbs the tall tree has won right to the fruit. by Sir Walter Scott (1771 - 1832)

   -  Better to have loved and lost a short person than never to have loved a tall.  by David Chambless

 

   -  No president in history has been more vilified or was more vilivied during the time he was President than Lincoln. Those who knew him, his secretaries, have written that he was deeply hurt by what was said about him and drawn about him, but on the other hand, Lincoln had the great strength of character never to display it, always able to stand tall and strong and firm no matter how harsh or unfair the criticism might be. These elements of greatness, of course, inspire us all today.  by  Richard Nixon

 

   -  Help others get ahead. You will always stand taller with someone else on your shoulders. by  Bob Moawad
