Order some mysterious hand
Occult yumorZhurnalisty - big fans of the mystical drawings. In 1965 American Joseph Flanders, police correspondent, wrote in a note about the murder of a mill worker who shot their own families:
"As if some mysterious hand stretched out from heaven, moved the participants of the events as pawns on a giant chessboard».
Said, "a mysterious hand" terribly amused colleagues Flanders, who laughed at the notes in the bar. There, in the bar, it was decided to unite in "Order some mysterious hand" and was even coined the banner of the Order. Banner was a sheet on which was a picture of a bloody hand stretched out from the purple clouds (English idiom purple passage - «purple passage" means overly ornate text).
Members of the Order - a few journalists and editors - swore as soon as possible to write about the "mysterious hand". Soon, the phrase appeared in the local newspapers "Charlotte News" and "Charlotte Observer", as well as jazz magazine "Down Beat».
Using the phrase about the mysterious hand was not limited to the city of Charlotte. Like a virus or meme, it has spread around the world. For decades, the phrase appeared from time to time in the materials of American newspapers, including the "New York Times," "Los Angeles Times" and "Vashingoton Post" reports Associated Press and newspapers in Australia and Thailand.
Manual "Charlotte News" revealed the tradition of writing about the "mysterious hand" only in 1985, when the newspaper was closed. By the time the Order of the mysterious hand was replaced defective busbars Club, open to any journalist who has ever written anything about the defective rail. But the Order continued its work and to maintain secrecy until 2004, when the "Chicago Tribune" published a thorough investigation of his activities.
Pulitzer Prize winner Paul Greenberg publicly acknowledged the existence of the Order. In 2006 he declared that the Order chose a new passphrase and resumed clandestine work.
