‘The Avengers:' 8 Things You May Have Missed the First Time Around Marvel/Disney "The Avengers" arrives on Blu-ray this week and, as you might expect, it's chock full of bonus clips, special features and even a brand new 10-minute short film. It's pretty epic. But before you start diving into the special features, there's something else you're going to want to watch first: The movie itself. With that in mind, then, and with a great big spoiler warning, here are eight things in "The Avengers" you may have missed the first time around. Marvel 1. So why is this throwaway joke important? 2. Is this the answer to life, the universe and everything? Paramount 3. And spying is exactly what they are doing in "The Avengers," where you can clearly see them flying around the mountain peak where Thor and Loki are having their heart-to-heart chat on just before Iron Man interrupts. 4. 5. No, we haven't gone nuts. 6. 7. 8. Yep.

The Pixar Theory wide receiver routes patterns passing tree flag out post slant corner go Here are some simple wide receiver patterns. Some people call this the "passing tree" or "passing routes." Every wide receiver needs to know these basic patterns and how to run them. The sharper and crisper your turns, the easier it will be for you to get open. In this scheme, the odd numbered routes go to the outside, while the even number go inside. In backyard football, the quarterback will usually call the wide receiver routes by the name of each route, to make it easier. INTRO: Always line up the same way, no matter what pattern you are running. Most common routes: 0. 0. 1. 2. 3. 4. 6. 7. 8. 9. Less common routes: 10. 12. Overall strategy:If the defender is playing way off of you, do a quick Slant. If the defender is playing very tight, go for a Post, Go, or a deep Slant. You should easily be able to tell what pattern will work on the defense presented.
factoids > adjective order in English The "ugly red wooden box" sounds correct, but the "wooden red ugly box" sounds wrong. There is a "rule" describing the order English adjectives are used in: Opinion or judgment -- beautiful, ugly, easy, fast, interesting Size -- small, tall, short, big Age -- young, old, new, historic, ancient Shape -- round, square, rectangular Color -- red, black, green, purple Nationality -- French, Asian, American, Canadian, Japanese Material -- wooden, metallic, plastic, glass, paper Purpose or Qualifier -- foldout sofa, fishing boat, racing car So: the "beautiful long old curved red Italian steel racing car" Take care when applying the rule to categorise the adjectives correctly. For example, "The old rotund man read a short old story about an ugly big bear" seems to follow the rules, yet sounds wrong. Other languages have similar rules.

www.howstuffworks.com/ad-slogan2.htm A perfectly-formed tagline should fulfill several criteria. First, it should be memorable. Memorability has to do with the ability the line has to be recalled unaided. A lot of this is based on the brand heritage and how much the line has been used over the years. But if it is a new line, what makes it memorable? For example, in addition to be being a clever line, "My goodness, my Guinness!" Guinness used to use the line "Guinness is good for you" until the authorities got after them, saying "Come on! A good tagline should include a key benefit: "Engineered like no other car in the world" does this beautifully for Mercedes Benz. There's a well-known piece of advice in the world of marketing: 'sell the sizzle, not the steak.' Holiday Inn: "Pleasing people the world over"Karry-Lite: "Takes the 'lug' out of luggage"Polaroid: "The fun develops instantly"The Economist: "Free enterprise with every issue" Conversely, the following lines have no obvious benefits: "Don't be vague. ...
Jerry's Map: Drawing an Imaginary World for 50 Years with the Outcome Determined by a Deck of Cards It’s a video that went undiscovered on Vimeo for years, and a project that’s been evolving for decades… with no clear end in sight. Jerry Gretzinger has an obsession unlike anyone else we’ve heard of: he’s spent almost his entire adult years creating a single never-ending map using hand painted pages and a special deck of cards to determine the outcome for his imaginary populous. It’s an all encompassing personal project that greatly predates modern games like SimCity and Minecraft, and Jerry’s brilliant (some would say obsessed) mind is at the controls. See Also All the Rivers in the Continental US: An Explorable Map The recently discovered video, featured here, walks us through Jerry’s highly detailed, open-edged painting that now covers 2000 square feet. “My mother called me a ‘musser’ because I liked to mix things together,” he tells Uppercase Magazine. An example of one panel from Jerry’s map: The custom deck of cards used to determine the outcome of Jerry’s daily painting: via reddit
A Visual History of Nobel Prizes and Notable Laureates, 1901-2012 by Maria Popova Mapping the greatest cultural and scientific advances in modern history with inspiration from John Cage’s music. After her wonderful visual timeline of the future based on famous fiction last week, I asked Italian information visualization designer Giorgia Lupi and her team at Accurat to create an exclusive English version of another fantastic visualization designed for La Lettura, the Sunday literary supplement of Italian newspaper Corriere Della Sera — this time exploring the history of Nobel Prizes and laureates since the dawn of the awards in 1901. Visualized for each laureate are prize category, year the prize was awarded, and age of the recipient at the time, as well as principal academic affiliations and hometown. (Click image for hi-res version) What makes the visualization especially interesting is that Lupi, herself a pianist, was inspired by the work of legendary composer John Cage and the fantastic Notations 21 project.

The Chaos - A poem by Dr. Gerard Nolst Trenité Dearest creature in creation, Study English pronunciation. I will teach you in my verse Sounds like corpse, corps, horse, and worse. I will keep you, Susy, busy, Make your head with heat grow dizzy. Tear in eye, your dress will tear. My first contact with this poem was via Usenet's rec.humor newsgroup back in the 1990s, when a reader posted a badly mangled version of it together with this note: Thanks to my reader Alan Drake, I'm now able to present the poem in its original form with the proper attribution.
