Objet du Jour Paper clip: A loop of wire keeping paperwork together without batteries, a password or a subscription. The familiar double-loop paper clip is called the Gem, and its design was never patented. A tiny masterpiece that forgot to hire a lawyer.

When the Obamas went to Ireland they named a big fancy gas station after them.

Bronze statues of Barack and Michelle Obama standing side by side, holding hands and waving with their outer hands raised. Barack (left) wears a suit and tie; Michelle (right) wears a skirt suit. Behind them is a large pink hexagonal sign reading “BARACK OBAMA PLAZA.” The statues stand on a paved area with mulch and landscaping in the background.
