The Golden Angel
[Ulysses S Grant]
To, 'coin a phrase' is now rarely used with its original 'invent a new phrase' meaning but is almost always used ironically to introduce a banal or clichéd sentiment. This usage began in the mid 20th century; for example, in Francis Brett Young's novel Mr. Lucton's Freedom, 1940:
"It takes all sorts to make a world, to coin a phrase."
Coining, in the sense of creating, derives from
the coining of money by stamping metal with a die. Coins - also
variously spelled coynes, coigns, coignes or quoins - were the blank,
usually circular, disks from which money was minted. This usage derived
from an earlier 14th century meaning of coin, which meant wedge. The
wedge-shaped dies which were used to stamp the blanks were called coins
and the metal blanks and the subsequent 'coined' money took their name
from them.
Coining later began to be associated with
inventiveness in language. In the 16th century the 'coining' of words
and phrases was often referred to. By that time the monetary coinage was
often debased or counterfeit and the coining of words was often
associated with spurious linguistic inventions; for example, in George
Puttenham's
The arte of English poesie, 1589:
"Young schollers not halfe well studied... will seeme to coigne fine wordes out of the Latin."
Shakespeare, the greatest coiner of them all, also referred to the coining of language in Coriolanus, 1607:
"So shall my Lungs Coine words till their decay."
Quoin has been retained as the name of the
wedge-shaped keystones or corner blocks of buildings. Printers also use
the term as the name for the expandable wedges that are used to hold
lines of type in place in a press. This has provoked some to suggest
that 'coin a phrase' derives from the process of quoining (wedging)
phrases in a printing press. That is not so. 'Quoin a phrase' is
recorded nowhere and 'coining' meant 'creating' from before the
invention of printing in 1440. Co-incidentally, printing does provide us
with a genuine derivation that links printing with linguistic banality -
cliché. This derives from the French cliquer, from the clicking sound of the stamp used to make metal typefaces.
'Coin a phrase' itself arises much later than
the invention of printing - the 19th century in fact. It appears to be
American in origin - it certainly appears in publications there long
before any can be found from any other parts of the world. The earliest
use of the term that I have found is in the Wisconsin newspaper The Southport American, July 1848:
"Had we to find... a name which should at once convey the enthusiasm of our feelings towards her, we would coin a phrase combining the extreme of admiration and horror and term her the Angel of Assassination."

ULYSSES,ODYSSEUS,OR,DUDER? ...THE MYTHOLOGY,TEACHES,US...
James Joyce describes a modern journey in Ulysses by casting his modern Irish characters on mould of mythological character figures. Two characters the Stephen and Leopold Bloom in Joyce’s Ulysses are given mythological dimension.
Joyce describes a modern journey, not by keeping his characters
Stephen, Bloom, Molly, Haines and Mulligan at the backdrop of myth but
by putting his characters in moulds of mythological characters. Joyce's
protagonist Bloom is exiled in his own country Ireland. He is in deep
anguish. The untimely death of his infant son produced a piercing wound
in his heart. His being ostracized, made him isolated. His being
cuckolded by his wife Molly humiliated him to the core. He is afflicted
with the modern malaise like alienation, isolation, exile- consciousness
and disintegration of his self. Bloom is on a journey to live an
assertive life. Bloom is on the look out for the wholeness of his self.
This journey of alienated and exiled modern Irish hero Leopold Bloom is
given a mythic dimension. To dramatize the journey of Leapold Bloom
Joyce does not evoke a mythic parallel. Rather Joyce treats Leopold
Bloom as a modern Ulysses shipwrecked in his marital life. Exactly like
shipwrecked Ulysses of Homer, Joyce’ Ulysses Leopold Bloom is
shipwrecked in his marital life.
Just as the Homeric hero Odysseus's wife Penelope was surrounded, Bloom's wife Molly was also paid constant courtship by Boylan. Just a Homeric Ulysses was in exile during his ten years journey on the sea, Joyce modern Ulysses Leopold Bloom feels lost and ignored on the soil of Dublin. There is evoked no parallel between Homeric Ulysses and the modern Ulysses like Leopold Bloom. Joyce did not draw parallels rather James Joyce endeavored to represent. Leopold Bloom as modern Ulysses whose sufferings are no less heroic than that of the Homeric hero Ulysses.

IN, HERALDRY,
Snow leopards have symbolic meaning for Turkic peoples of Central Asia, where the animal is known as irbis or bars, so it is widely used in heraldry and as an emblem.
The snow leopard in heraldry is sometimes known in English as the ounce. The cat has long been used as a political symbol, the Aq Bars ('White Leopard'), by Tatars, Kazakhs, and Bulgars, among others. A snow leopard is found on the official seal of the city of Almaty, Kazakhstan, and the former 10,000 Kazakhstani tenge banknote also featured one on the reverse.

In the 2013 film The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, photojournalist Sean O'Connell (played by Sean Penn) is shown photographing snow leopards in Afghanistan.[PENN,IS, A COMPETENT ACTOR,DANNY KAYE, WAS,CRAP]
In Philip Pullman's 1995-2000 fantasy trilogy His Dark Materials, Lord Asriel's dæmon is a snow leopard named Stelmaria.

BATH SALTS?..
Chemicals sold as “Bath Salts” are not bath salts used in a tub, but toxic drugs whose effects are unpredictable.
In the same way that Spice and K2 are referred to as synthetic marijuana, Bath Salts are referred to as synthetic stimulants. They can also cause hallucinations like that of LSD.
Bath Salts often contain a varied mix of chemicals, so even if the packaging looks the same, one never knows what the product actually contains. It is usually sold in powdered form in small plastic or foil packages. It can be white, off-white, yellow or brown and may also be sold in capsules or tablets, or in small jars in liquid form.
Users have reported snorting or injecting it, or mixing it with food or drink. This can include “bombing” it (swallowing it wrapped in cigarette paper), taking it rectally, inhaling it using a vaporizer or smoking it.
BATH SALTS?..
Chemicals sold as “Bath Salts” are not bath salts used in a tub, but toxic drugs whose effects are unpredictable.
Many of the substances in these drugs were banned in the U.S.
because of their harmful effects, and dealers use Bath Salts and other
names to get around the law. They are also falsely advertised as “plant
food,” “jewelry cleaner,” “phone screen cleaner,” and labeled “not for
human consumption” to escape arrest by law enforcement.
Bath Salts don’t refer to any single drug, but rather a group of
similar substances, chemically-made versions of a type of drug found in
the Khat plant, an evergreen shrub from East Africa and southern Arabia.In the same way that Spice and K2 are referred to as synthetic marijuana, Bath Salts are referred to as synthetic stimulants. They can also cause hallucinations like that of LSD.
