Spy vs. Spy is a silent comic strip created by Antonio Prohias and published in Mad Magazine from 1961 to this day. In the strip, two spies known only as White and Black, are constantly in a battle of deception to steal the other side’s secret plans while at the same time setting up intricate traps to kill each other. Just when it seems that one of them will be falling into a lethal death trap the other one lay out, the trap is ingeniously backfired by the first, and the other spy is comically killed while the first spy escapes with a mischievous smile and doing the v sign with both hands....

Her throat may be safe but she looks like she has scarlet fever! For those who don’t want to click the image, it says: “Women began to smoke, so they tell me, just about the time they began to vote”. I am not sure that “blowing” in your girlfriends face is going to get you very far… How many women here would fall in behind a guy who smelt of stale smoke?...

Death is inevitable; therefore, decision-making regarding end-of-life body disposal is inevitable. It is a choice that we will likely be faced with more than once, ranging from consideration of what we want for our own bodies when we die to making decisions for loved ones. There are currently two primary modes of body disposal in the United States: traditional cemetery burials and indoor cremations. According to the National Funeral Directors Association 2021 report, the projected 2021 burial rate is about 36....

Christine Jesperson is a lonely artist and “Eldercab” driver who uses her fantastical artistic visions to draw her aspirations and objects of desire closer to her....

The only motivation I can fathom behind this idiotic blunder by a military genius is sheer boredom. To this point in his military career, Napoleon has known nothing but victory after victory. He’s conquered pretty much all of Europe that refused to ally with him and suddenly he was sitting around with the largest army ever gathered in Europe up until then with nothing to do. So Napoleon looks west, to Mother Russia....

Children of Men 2006, Alfonso Cuarón Wikipedia The reason this is so high on the list is because the long sequence is actually made up of a few long takes very cleverly stitched together. Despite that, this is a great sequence and deserves a place here. Week End 1967, Jean-Luc Godard Wikipedia While long tracking shots were still not really mainstream, Jean-Luc Godard made extensive use of them in this film about a jaded married couple visiting the wife’s parents in the countryside to ensure that they get their inheritance....

Carol Burnett (b. 1933) – American comedienne and actress most famous for her own variety show, The Carol Burnett Show (1967-1978). She also appeared on Mama’s Family in a few episodes reprising the role of Eunice that she created with co-star Vickie Lawrence, and as Jamie’s mother on Mad About You. In addition, she’s done several films and voice-overs. However, she will most likely be remembered most for her ear-tugging salute to her grandmother, her hilarious Tarzan call, and her parody of Gone with the Wind called Went with the Wind....

Fortunately, several terrific shows managed to successfully stick the dismount. The following are ten, in chronological order. [SPOILERS AHEAD!] 10 The Mary Tyler Moore Show (1977) The easiest way to end a show about a show, of course, is to cancel the fake show that the real show is about. The final episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, aptly named “The Last Show,” stays true to the program’s feminist themes without getting overly preachy—a balance it struck for seven acclaimed seasons....

My answer: No. I believe that abortion has become so out of control that it has become a form of contraception. There is a high physical and mental cost involved and many of the young women who have abortions are not always fully aware of these consequences. From a philosophical perspective I also wonder whether we would have a cure for AIDS and other diseases now if someone hadn’t aborted the child that was going to ultimately find the cure....

As a consequence of both of these things, I am removing the primary focus from the front page of Listverse away from Coronavirus and back to regular editor’s picks of lists (this really only affects readers of the desktop site). As I was looking over the various lists for today’s editor’s picks I thought it might be a nice idea for us to all share with each the things we most miss and the first thing we will do when our own freedom is restored....

Most of the films they put out are not just good but actively shift our expectations of cinema and what it is capable of. Thus, each of the following films takes a sledgehammer to the filmmaking mold and speaks to the true extent of A24’s input in the industry in recent years. 10 Eighth Grade (2019) Bo Burnham’s coming-of-age comedy Eighth Grade may sound like a setup for your typical teen movie—awkward eighth grader transitions from middle to high school while navigating the trials of mean girls, pool parties, and social media—but it is anything but....

What better motivation to get outside and take a walk? Ten people found remarkable artifacts and natural treasures while out and about doing other things. And not one of them needed a metal detector to find their treasures and artifacts… 10 Forest of Fossils in the Foothills A park ranger and naturalist, Greg Francek, was walking in the Sierra Nevada foothills near Sacramento, California, in May 2021. He was employed by a utility department that provided drinking water to the region....

For this reason, the US government can’t divulge complete information about its tools and tactics for the national defense to the people it is sworn to serve. So there must be at least some instances when weapons of war have been developed and deployed without the knowledge of the American populace (or the rest of the world). But what if the opponent of the military-industrial complex, having acquired unwarranted influence, became its own people?...

But before man was sitting in a rocket, all manner of other living creatures were forced to take the lead. The U.S. favored chimpanzees for their close genetic structure to humans, but the Soviets preferred dogs. Some 36 different dogs were used over a 15-year period, and many of them died or have been forgotten by history: these are 10 of their stories. 10 Dezik, Tsygan, and Lisa It’s important to remember that in the 1950s, neither the Soviets nor the U....

10Ravens Guide Wolves To Prey In the past, gray wolves were considered too dangerous to tolerate and were nearly annihilated in North America by the 1970s. Populations have been recovering since then. Their reintroduction to Yellowstone National Park has had a beneficial and stabilizing effect on the local ecosystem, particularly where scavengers during the winter months are concerned. Even without wolves, many herbivores still die of starvation toward the end of winter....

10Captured US Crewmen Flipped Off Their North Korean Captors If you’re an enemy captured by the North Koreans, chances are you will be brutalized. That is exactly what happened in January 1968 when North Koreans captured the USS Pueblo and imprisoned its crewmen for almost a year. During their captivity, the men had to endure inhumane living conditions coupled with torture and forced indoctrinations. They also became unwilling propaganda tools and regularly appeared in photos as proof of North Korea’s superiority and benevolence....

Occasionally, it is not the value that is most interesting about an item. On the British Antiques Roadshow, an expert on old glassware drank a liquid from an old bottle—only to later discover it was human urine. The bottle had been turned into a “witch bottle” at some point. Such items were used to keep evil from a house. So whether you have an attic worth of your great grandfather’s “collectibles” or luck out at an estate or garage sale, you never know what’s going to happen on the show....

Many of these examples are profiled on such shows as “Air Disaster” (also called “Mayday” and “Air Crash Investigation” and “Mayday: Catástrofes aéreas,” depending on the market) and “Seconds from Disaster.” Personally, I’ve been in one situation that could have been a disaster. My family and I were on a Japan-bound Northwest 747 leaving Minneapolis when one of the right engines flamed out on takeoff. The pilots circled the airport while dumping fuel to make the plane lighter and safe enough to land on three engines....

Archaeologists are drawn to such events because they tend to leave behind time capsules. Abandoned settlements and skeletons give clues to how people reacted to epidemics and the weather that destroyed their worlds. Ancient natural disasters can also answer historical mysteries, reveal glimpses into a victim’s personal life, and even back up myths. 10 Stone Age Sandstorm Around 5,500 years ago, a village was abandoned in modern-day Norway. In 2010, developers decided a seaside location at Hamresanden would make the ideal retirement spot....
