Gladiator the movie

The script wasn’t finished when the movie began
“Gladiator” won Best Picture. It got a Best Original Screenplay nomination. It made its budget back at the box office in two weeks and finished as the second-highest-grossing movie of 2000. As such, you might be surprised that the production wasn’t that smooth. When they were filming the movie the script wasn’t finished, and a third screenwriter, William Nicholson, was brought on to give the screenplay another past. Reportedly Crowe was frequently and vocally frustrated with the script. Somehow, it ended with him winning an Academy Award. It’s weird how showbiz goes sometimes.

How would you define the term "intubate"?


A) The Placement Of A Tube Into The Airway

B) High Blood Sodium Level

C) Rash, Trouble BreathingEvidence Of Liver Or Kidney Damage

Saline water in oceans, seas and saline groundwater make up about 97% of all the water on Earth. Only 2.5–2.75% is fresh water, including 1.75–2% frozen in glaciers, ice and snow, 0.5–0.75% as fresh groundwater and soil moisture, and less than 0.01% of it as surface water in lakes, swamps and rivers.[7][8] Freshwater lakes contain about 87% of this fresh surface water, including 29% in the African Great Lakes, 22% in Lake Baikal in Russia, 21% in the North American Great Lakes, and 14% in other lakes. Swamps have most of the balance with only a small amount in rivers, most notably the Amazon River. The atmosphere contains 0.04% water.[9] In areas with no fresh water on the ground surface, fresh water derived from precipitation may, because of its lower density, overlie saline ground water in lenses or layers. Most of the world's fresh water is frozen in ice sheets. Many areas have very little fresh water, such as deserts.

Empire of Austenasia, UK
Who would have thought that a suburb in south London houses a tiny nation that claims to be independent from the rest of the UK? Formed in 2008 by a father and his son (the Austens), the "capital" of the Empire of Austenasia is located in Carshalton and ruled by Emperor Jonathan I. He doesn't stand alone in his fight to maintain independence, as 23 other properties in the UK and around the world claim to be part of the student's family-home micronation, pictured here.
Its territory is spread across the UK, along with a university campus in Australia, a holiday home in the Hebrides and houses in the US, Montenegro, India and Algeria. Austenasia proudly states it's a nation of 85 citizens and Emperor Jonathan I (pictured in the centre with two tourists in his house) is usually happy to welcome curious visitors to his capital "Wrythe" – subject to prior arrangement. You can even buy Austenasian coins and postcards as souvenirs

ships of the line were naval sailing vessels made in 17th and 18th centuries . so named because
they formed lines in battle to fire their broadsides

The British military is a joke. They are completely dependent on others to protect them. Women.

The Canadian who led the Famous Polish fliers over England

Group Captain John Alexander Kent, DFC & Bar, AFC (23 June 1914 – 7 October 1985), nicknamed "Kentski" (sometimes given as "Kentowski") by his Polish comrades, was a Canadian fighter ace flying in the Royal Air Force during the Second World War. Considered one of the best young squadron leaders of the war, he went on to a distinguished postwar career before entering the aviation industry.

A GREAT STORY

Roselle, a yellow Labrador, became the nation’s most famous guide dog after leading her owner down 78
floors in the World Trade Center’s Tower One just moments before the building collapsed on Sept. 11, 2001.

INVENTIONS (Odd that Post It notes are worth more than Coca-Cola)

The microwave oven
In 1947, Percy Spencer of the Raytheon Company was standing in front of a radar magnetron (which creates electromagnetic waves) when a candy bar in his pocket melted, sparking the idea for the microwave oven. Raytheon later acquired Amana Refrigeration, which sold the first commercial microwaves in 1967 for about $495. Grand View Research predicted the global market for microwave ovens will be worth $12.7 billion by 2022.


Post-it notes
These iconic yellow stick-on paper squares were invented in 1974 by 3M’s Arthur Fry, using a lightly sticky adhesive developed by his colleague Spencer Silver in 1968. Fry intended them to serve as bookmarks for his choir music that wouldn’t rip the pages. Post-its are now in nearly every office, to the great joy of 3M, which was worth $126.1 billion in 2019.

Coca-Cola
The world’s most popular caffeinated soft drink was invented in 1886 by John Pemberton, a pharmacist in Atlanta. Pemberton died in 1888, and sadly never saw the success (or wealth) generated by his invention, which was purchased by a man called Asa Griggs Candler in 1891. Candler helped to market Coca-Cola into a worldwide business worth over $80.83 billion in 2019.

The British Military will always be stretched to the limit as they have to spend so much time protecting our side from our allies "friendly fire"
