A recently discovered new species of frog was named as Cochranella amelie in honor of the film's protagonist.[10] A significant honor in the academic world, the scientist that described the new species stated: "The name of this new species of Glassfrog is for Amelie, protagonist of the extraordinary movie “Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain”; a movie where little details play an important role in the achievement of joie de vivre; like the important role that Glassfrogs and all amphibians and reptiles play in the health of our planet".[11] This new species was described in the scientific journal Zootaxa ([3]) in an article entitled "An enigmatic new species of Glassfrog (Amphibia: Anura: Centrolenidae) from the Amazonian Andean slopes of Ecuador" ([4])

When Catherine Keener gets on the helicopter around 25 minutes into the movie she receives a phone call. The voice on the phone is supposed to be speaking an African language. It is actually speaking Hebrew. It is the message one gets when one dials a non-existent number in Israel.

Dot Woods: [working security during a lap dance in a strip club] Ma'am, ma'am, excuse me, please don't touch the Prime Minister. I need you to step back, please.

Silvia Broome: [to Secret Service Agent Keller] I'll be honest with you - I don't know how honest I can be with you.

Dot Woods: [to Toban as she notices explosives are attached to the light switch after she nearly turned on the light] Now that's just rude.

Silvia Broome: Everyone who loses somebody wants revenge on someone, on God if they can't find anyone else. But in Africa, in Matobo, the Ku believe that the only way to end grief is to save a life. If someone is murdered, a year of mourning ends with a ritual that we call the Drowning Man Trial. There's an all-night party beside a river. At dawn, the killer is put in a boat. He's taken out on the water and he's dropped. He's bound so that he can't swim. The family of the dead then has to make a choice. They can let him drown or they can swim out and save him. The Ku believe that if the family lets the killer drown, they'll have justice but spend the rest of their lives in mourning. But if they save him, if they admit that life isn't always just... that very act can take away their sorrow.

It may sound preposterous, but it was proven more than 80 years ago by polish mathematicians Stefan Banach and Alfred Tarski, derived from rules and axioms commonly accepted as true and underlying much more mundane ideas. Through them we can conclude that there is, in principle, a way of cutting a loaf of bread and reassemble the pieces to feed five thousand people.

∙

In Yoshimoto’s toy, the duplication is just apparent. In the Banach-Tarski paradox, the multiplication of volume is a pure mathematics conclusion with no connection to the real world.
Or perhaps not.

Recuerdo cuando Lina Botero presentaba "los 10 mejores de la música". A mis 8 años ese programa fue mi primer acercamiento con el mundo del video clip. Ahí pude ver videos de Prince, Van Halen, Cindy Lauper y Lionel Richie. Pero la gran frutilla del postre era cuando aparecían los videos de Michael, ya fuera para hacer las paces a través del baile con los pandilleros anteriormente mencionados (que estoy seguro inspiraron a los "billis" bogotanos), ya fuera para caminar encima de unas baldosas que se iluminaban a su paso, mientras un fotógrafo trataba inútilmente de retratarlo, pero sobre todo cuando unos muertos salían de una tumba para hacer la mejor coreografía de baile que la tierra haya visto.

Y es que la verdad es que el mundo de los truchos es un mundo paralelo. Es una realidad en la que hay pilas que se venden por su duración cuando en realidad su valor diferencial es la posibilidad de recargarlas, por ejemplo. Es un mundo en el que se vende un detergente porque deja la ropa “ultra blanca” cuando en realidad su beneficio es que cuida las fibras de la ropa, por mencionar sólo algunos. Es el mundo paralelo de la vanidad en el que los publicistas queremos que nos reconozcan por los mensajes chistosos o sorprendentes. Los truchos olvidan que el verdadero talento de un publicista está en abordar un problema de negocios por medio de una comunicación inteligente, en ser capaz de resolverlo y generar resultados reales para la marca. La publicidad no se hace para las galerías. Se hace para la vida real.

A algún colega le oía decir en aquel día de su fallecimiento que "bueno, fue una muerte inminente, seguro no sufrió mucho"... Michael Jackson llevaba sufriendo más de 40 años, cuando la historia de su vida se detuvo abruptamente y comenzó la película de extraterrestres, esa que todos han reeditado en estos días, la del come-niños, la del adolescente hostigado por su padre, la del hombre sin nariz, la de la despigmentación. Díganme qué medio de comunicación no habrá soñado con estar presente en la autopsia del cantante... Somos nosotros los protagonistas de un espectáculo dantesco.

The hole is the outcome not of nature but of an industrial accident. In 1971 a Soviet drilling rig accidentally punched into a massive underground natural gas cavern, causing the ground to collapse and the entire drilling rig to fall in. Having punctured a pocket of gas, poisonous fumes began leaking from the hole at an alarming rate. To head off a potential environmental catastrophe, the Soviets set the hole alight. The crater hasn't stopped burning since.

News leaked in early fall of 2001 that this movie would feature the first teaser for Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002). Hundreds of Star Wars fans paid admission for the movie just to see the teaser and reportedly some left after seeing it.

Mary Gibbs was so young that it proved difficult to get her to stand in the recording studio and act her lines. Instead, they simply followed her around with a microphone and cut Boo's lines together from the things she said while she played.

For many years, they were known for their exaggerated advertisements and packaging, which featured smiling anthropomorphic creatures (originally drawn by prominent comic book artist Joe Orlando) who bore little resemblance to their true appearance.[2][3] Underneath these pictures, which appeared in large numbers in comic books during the 1970s, was a disclaimer that stated, "Caricatures shown not intended to depict Artemia." The present disclaimer on the package states, "Illustration is fanciful, does not depict Artemia nyos."

Wait, It Gets Worse: The genetic chaos continues. The Endosymbiotic Theory says that the mitochondria in our bodies, without which we couldn’t live, let alone write snide humor articles, was at one point a separate organism that invaded our cells and set up camp. They formed a symbiotic relationship so beneficial that we’ve never booted them out. Furthermore, large chunks of the human genome are thought to be ancient retroviruses that managed to transcribe themselves into our DNA and have spent the remainder of their days happily clambering up and down our nucleotides like the McDuck children on a mansion banister. Basically your cells are millions of individual organisms, all huddled together in a you-shaped beehive. Now see how long you can go before wanting to shower.

La novela se llama Drop (gota) y ocupa aproximadamente ocho hojas del rollo. Basta con hacer un cálculo muy sencillo para entender que la novela de Suzuki puede leerse en el tiempo promedio que gasta una persona en el baño. Que también pueden leerla los que vengan detrás, pues la historia se repite poco más de treinta veces en el rollo. Y que, por supuesto, no solo no implica desperdicio de papel, sino que multiplica su uso. Aquellos que viven preocupados por la tala de árboles que debe emprenderse para publicar un libro de gran tiraje quedarán muy contentos: ellos también van al baño.

There are no official rules for "Standard English" because, unlike some other languages, English does not have a linguistic governance body such as the Accademia della Crusca, Real Academia Española, the Académie française or the Dansk Sprognævn to establish usage.

There is an important sequence of numbers called “the moments of the Riemann zeta function.” Although we know abstractly how to define it, mathematicians have had great difficulty explicitly calculating the numbers in the sequence. We have known since the 1920s that the first two numbers are 1 and 2, but it wasn’t until a few years ago that mathematicians conjectured that the third number in the sequence may be 42—a figure greatly significant to those well-versed in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.

The caveats? The algorithm works when dividing a cake only among three people and then only for the special case involving mathematical objects called measurable utility functions, and the result is only approximately envy-free.
