I first heard about national service while my dad and I were shooting hoops at the town school court last fall. He asked me: “What if your country wanted you to serve, maybe in return for college money? You wouldn’t have to enlist in the military; maybe you’d be a teacher’s aide, or clean up the environment, or something.” I answered, “A sphincter says what?” having just seen “Wayne’s World” for the 85th time....
What If…?’s latest outing brought a much-needed break from the dramatic and surprisingly dark episodes that came before — which explored a world without the Avengers and a version of Killmonger that lived up to his infamous nickname. The seventh episode, “What If… Thor Were an Only Child?” explores the idea of Thor’s adoptive brother, Loki, is returned to Jotunheim and lives his days in his true Frost Giant form....
There was even a sense of euphoria, inspired by the polish of the passing combinations once Laurent Koscielny had opened the floodgates by poking in the opening goal. "Arsenal were too good," lamented Newcastle's under-siege manager Alan Pardew. But there was also an underlying feeling at Emirates Stadium of what might have been. Nine trophyless years and seasons that follow an eerily similar pattern have led to an almost permanent air of dissatisfaction in the red-and-white half of north London....
Despite being a veteran of the business, what with him having competed for well over a couple of decades, R-Truth has never quite been able to capture a World Championship in the WWE. Blame it on a lack of push or untimely injuries derailing his potential world title runs, it’s simply criminal that this underrated Superstar is yet to even get a whiff of the coveted gold in the WWE Universe....
The reality-bending shenanigans Marvel’s heroes are pulling off in What If…? may finally be about to become a bit too much for The Watcher as episode four is centered all around the darker side of Doctor Strange wreaking havoc in his own universe. Unlike the first What If…? episodes that take a lighter approach to show these alternate timelines can turn out just as well as the mainline MCU, both episode three and this one depict a far more somber scenario in each of their respective realities, however many Marvel universes really are up to this point....
The latest episode of What If…? has premiered on Disney Plus, and it once again tells a story unlike any that have come before it in the series. And a major part of that uniqueness comes from the character at the center of the action. What If…? Episode 5, simply titled “What If… Zombies!?” is very much an ensemble piece. The episode focuses on a diverse team of characters from across the Marvel Cinematic Universe — from Bruce Banner to Okoye to Kurt from Ant-Man — as they work together in an attempt to save Earth from a zombie apocalypse that’s already infected the majority of earth’s mightiest heroes....
Speaking to The Post Credits Podcast, Bradley discussed an episode idea where Peter Parker/Spider-Man is transformed into a real spider, saying that the idea was scrapped because it was “just too dark and too body horror for their PG-13 [rating].” While Bradley doesn’t confirm it, the idea is likely inspired by an episode of the 1990’s Spider-Man: The Animated Series. In the episode, Peter Parker is transformed into a giant arachnid after he attempts to cure himself of his spider-mutation, instead accelerating the mutation to its final form....
Developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems with technical and financial assistance from the United States, Iron Dome has a remarkable success rate of 80-90 precent. Despite the reported sticker price of $62,000 per interceptor, few Israeli taxpayers believe this is money ill spent.

How 3D Slicing Works 3D printers work by reading 3D files and printing them layer by layer, usually in thin layers of about 0.1mm thick. A 3D slicer takes your 3D model and translates it into a language your 3D printer can understand, which is called a G-code. The G-code file contains instructions for each model layer so that your 3D printer knows what to do. The file contains the instructions like how the printer should move, what speed to use, and the size of the 3D printer filament to extrude....
The truth is, I can’t tell you exactly what that means. Saying someone has a blown out knee is the same as saying they had a bad knee injury or suffered a traumatic knee injury. It could mean a variety of things, some more severe than others, but simply saying a knee was blown out will not tell you exactly what happened or what the treatment and prognosis of the knee will be....
Cavities are a common dental problem. In fact, about 91% of Americans over the age of 20 have experienced a cavity. However, with proper oral hygiene and regular dental visits, they’re often preventable. Causes Teeth are covered in a relatively thick layer of enamel, a protective coating. Enamel is made mostly from minerals—including calcium—which form hard crystals to protect the blood vessels and nerves in the tooth. Since enamel isn’t living, it’s not able to repair itself....

Most electronics today are built around semiconductors and chips. A solid state drive uses, as its primary storage medium, semiconductors rather than the magnetic platters of a conventional hard drive. SSD Similarities to Traditional Drives Solid state drives and USB flash drives use the same type of non-volatile memory chips that retain information when there is no power. The difference is in the form factor and capacity of the drives....
Opening a local file on your computer is as simple as double-clicking it, but to open files on remote computers, like web servers, we must use URLs so that our web browser knows where to look.

Produced by Warner Brothers, The Ellen DeGeneres Show has run for 18 seasons and it reached its 3,000th episode on April 29 this year.
