Happy Wednesday: reddit Edition!

It's time again for beauty and great curves, but this week, instead of going to my usual source at Co-Ed Magazine, I'm bringing some great photos of Christine Hendricks (of the TV show Mad Men). Christine Hendricks seems to be a new favorite dame among redditors everywhere (okay, among many redditors everywhere). So, here you go!

Word of the Day: Capitulate

capitulate

Pronunciation: \kə-ˈpi-chə-ˌlāt\

Inflected Form(s): capitulated; capitulating

Etymology: Medieval Latin capitulatus, past participle of capitulare to distinguish by heads or chapters, from Late Latin capitulum

Date: 1596

Definition: 1: archaic; parley, negotiate 2a: to surrender often after negotiation of terms 2b: to cease resisting (acquiesce)

And, now for the visual goodness that seals the deal for most people when learning new words from Google Images! Enjoy and learn! After all, we don't use our minds nearly enough as it is, and some use it much less than others! I fall on both sides of the line many times too. Capitulate.

Word of the Day: Limn

limn

Pronunciation: \ˈlim\

Inflected Form(s): limned; limning \ˈli-miŋ, ˈlim-niŋ\

Etymology: Middle English limnen to illuminate (a manuscript), probably back-formation from lymnour illuminator, alteration of lumenur, from Anglo-French aluminer, enluminer to illuminate, ultimately from Latin illuminare

Date: 1592

Definition: 1: to draw or paint on a surface 2: to outline in clear sharp detail; delineate 3: describe (the novel limns the frontier life of the settlers)

And before I just post a picture derived from the word of the day, I feel that I should at least explain a little. The heart in the photograph is a sign for the Limn art gallery which consequently explains the connection to the word. So, there you are, Google Images has not failed us yet!
