During a chair hockey game at the power plant with office supplies, Mr. Burns chastises Homer for behaving unprofessionally during the game. Homer gets in more trouble when an ice cream truck passes by the plant, causing him to fantasize that Mr. Burns is an ice cream cone and try to lick him, resulting in Homer being fired as he runs towards the ice cream truck. Homer uses a $100 bill to buy a 25 cent ice cream from the ice cream man, Max, who collapses and dies of a fatal heart attack while changing the bill into coins. Max's widow sells the truck to Homer, and Homer has Otto remodel it à la Pimp My Ride. Meanwhile, the television series Opal — Springfield's version of The Oprah Winfrey Show — has a show about successful women, which sends Marge into a deep depression, as she feels she has not done anything memorable with her life. Marge is inspired by all the Popsicle sticks Homer brings home, and makes sculptures out of them.
Kent Brockman sees the sculptures and interviews Marge, who says she creates them, so they will serve as a reminder of her when she is gone. Kent includes her on a news special, Kent Brockman's Kentresting People. Thanks to the publicity, Rich Texan creates an art show to showcase Marge's talent; however, it opens on Saturday, a day with high ice cream sales. Homer promises to return by 3 o'clock to see the art show. He loses track of time and hurries home, but accidentally crashes into his own lawn in the process, destroying all of Marge's sculptures. Marge says that Homer has ruined her dreams and locks herself in the bedroom.
Several days later, Homer tries to express how bad he feels by slipping pictures of himself under the door, but falls asleep. When he wakes up, Marge is gone and Grandpa is looking after Bart and Lisa, who tell him that Marge left hours ago. Marge is on top of city hall, where she declares she will show the world how she feels about Homer. She reveals the largest Popsicle sculpture she has ever made, and the subject is Homer. Marge realizes that Homer tried to keep his promise to her and make it on time, not that he did not care, much to the shock of a nearby Opal. Marge apologizes to Homer for the way that she acted, Homer apologizes for ruining her sculptures, and the two reunite. The scene shifts 200 years into the future, where the Homer sculpture is the only remaining element of Western art in a world where iPods have conquered humanity, whipping them with headphones for a hobby.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_Cream_of_Margie_(with_the_Light_Blue_Hair)#cite_note-Futon-1" ]<1]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_Cream_of_Margie_(with_the_Light_Blue_Hair)#cite_note-Futon-1" ]<1]<="" a="">

Fleischmann was born in Esslingen am Neckar, the third child of businessman, Wilhelm Adolf Fleischmann, and his wife Paulina Maria (born 18 March 1892 in Esslingen).
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Fleischmann#cite_note-1" ]<1]<="" a="">After a brief spell as a staff illustrator and painter in the Municipal Office of Health Care Exhibition, Stuttgart, and at the workshop on graphic art under </a>Paul Hahn Fleischmann, in 1914 he was drafted into military service. The following year he was on the Eastern Front and so badly wounded, that he was discharged from military service.
Temporarily, he designed book covers for Deutsche Verlags-Anstalt, and the JB Metzler's Verlagsbuchhandlung, both in Stuttgart.
Through the intercession of his half-sister Louise Lotte Volger, who was employed as Moulageuse at the Cantonal Hospital of Zurich, in 1917 he received a job there. Fleischmann worked until July 1928 (with interruptions) as a scientific illustrator in Zurich. Many of the products manufactured by him in plaster casts are preserved and on display at the University Hospital of Zurich.
In 1921, Fleischmann participated in the exhibition of the New Munich Secession. Here he was particularly inspired by Franz Marc and other Expressionists. As a result, he drew expressionist paintings.
This was followed by work trips to Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Paris, but also in Germany (Berlin and Hamburg). In 1925, he was influenced by cubism. In 1928, he took part in the "Juryfreien" exhibitions in Stuttgart and Berlin, and again participated in the "New Secession", Munich.
From 1933 to 1936, he spent a long time in Mallorca and Paris. From 1936 to 1938, he traveled with Bertha Loof, through Italy and stayed mainly on Ischia. In July 1938, his son was born Dieter Loof, who died at the age of about four years.
Since he was now producing abstract painting, he avoided a possible confrontation with the National Socialist regime by moving to France. In Paris, he joined the "Équipe" group. In this way he met influential artists, such as Robert Delaunay and Albert Gleizes. There, he helped the Resistance against the German occupiers. By the end of the war, he lived in various places in southern France, especially in Graulhet, Tarn (department). Several times he was interned, then in camp, "Les Milles" in Aix-en-Provence, from which he managed to escape, in October 1940.
At the end of 1944, Adolf Fleischmann returned from his hideout in southern France back in liberated Paris, where he found a completely devastated studio, with only remnants of his paintings, the work of many years. He literally, "I experienced a nervous breakdown." But with the help of his French friends, he could soon begin his artistic work again, and get involved until his emigration to the U.S. in 1952, participated in exhibitions in Paris. Under the pressure of a violent anti-German feeling, he signed in the early postwar period works with the pseudonym Richard, his middle name. In the catalog of Realitéts Nouvelles No. 1, 1947, is a picture of him. He did not use the pseudonym of Richard in the United States.
At the end of the war and in the early postwar years had a brief first Fleischmann "geometric phase" in the sense of concrete art, which he resigned but was soon in favor of less stringent designs. He joined the group at Réalités nouvelles and moved to Paris for a few years. He earned his living with designs for posters, magazine titles, wallpaper and fabrics (such as towels for Dior).
In 1948, he married Elly Abendstern, and in the same year he had his first solo exhibition in the gallery Creuze in Paris.
In 1950, Fleischmann wrote again to the geometric shape, but less in terms of concrete art, but rather in the context of serial painting. He thus became an early precursor of Op Art. At the age of nearly 60 years he had developed his own distinctive style, characterized by rhythmic grouped narrow strips that are integrated into narrow angle. In 1951 he exhibited his latest works at the Galerie Colette Allendy. He was a member of American Abstract Artists.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Fleischmann#cite_note-2" ]<2]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Fleischmann#cite_note-2" ]<2]<="" a="">
</a>
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Fleischmann#cite_note-2" ]<2]<="" a="">Then he was offered better job opportunities in the U.S., he moved to New York in 1952. Here he lived both as a staff artist, at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of </a>Columbia University, as well as a freelance painter. Solo exhibitions and experiments with cardboard and similar materials to accompany his New York time.
In 1958, he went on visits back to Europe for almost three months, and in this period also saw the subtle change in the severity of his geometric style in favor of looser lines, stripes and figurations. As before, he remained committed to the geometry, but his images were softer.
In 1962, he became seriously ill. During 1963 and 1964, he spent 16 months in Stuttgart. In this period the "Metamorphoses" images: the individual L-forms are pulled together as blocks.
Fleischmann went back to New York in late 1964, where he suffered a severe stroke in 1965. Because of improved medical treatment he returned to Stuttgart. There was held the 1966 Adolf Fleischmann-anniversary exhibition at the Württemberg Art Association, which made him famous overnight, and marked his breakthrough in Germany. In the next two years he created, despite a partial paralysis, twenty relief-like collages.
Fleischmann died on 28 January 1968 in Stuttgart, aged 75, of the after-effects of a stroke; he was buried at the Ebershaldenfriedhof in Esslingen.
The Remington 700 series rifles often come with a 3-, 4- or 5-round internal magazine depending on the caliber chambered, some of which have a hinged floor-plate for quick unloading, and some of which are "blind" (with no floor-plate). The rifle can also be ordered with a detachable box magazine. The Model 700 is available in many different stock, barrel and caliber configurations, with many third-party and aftermarket variants in the market built on the same action footprint. From 1978 to 1982, Remington offered the Sportsman 78 which is the same model 700 action but with cheaper features such as a plain stock without checkering. The Sportsman 78 was not included in the recall that affected the trigger group.
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-wakeman-5" ]<5]<="" a="">To these can be added various magazine configurations; a blind magazine which has no floorplate, a conventional magazine with a detachable floorplate and a detachable box magazine. There are standard consumer versions as well as versions designed for military and police use. Some variants come with </a>bipods, slings and other accessories.[citation needed]
Chop suey (/ˈtʃɒpˈsuːi/) is a dish in American Chinese cuisineand other forms of overseas Chinese cuisine, consisting of meat (usually chicken, pork, beef, shrimp or fish) and eggs, cooked quickly with vegetables such as bean sprouts, cabbage, and celery and bound in a starch-thickened sauce. It is typically served with rice but can become the Chinese-American form of chow mein with the substitution of stir-fried noodles for rice.
One account claims that it was invented by Chinese American cooks working on the transcontinental railroad in the 19th century. Another tale is that it was created during Qing Dynasty premier Li Hongzhang's visit to the United States in 1896 by his chef, who tried to create a meal suitable for both Chinese and American palates. Another story is that Li wandered to a local Chinese restaurant after the hotel kitchen had closed, where the chef, embarrassed that he had nothing ready to offer, came up with the new dish using scraps of leftovers. Yet recent research by the scholar Renqui Yu led him to conclude that "no evidence can be found in available historical records to support the story that Li Hung Chang ate chop suey in the United States." Li brought three Chinese chefs with him, and would not have needed to eat in local restaurants or invent new dishes in any case. Yu speculates that shrewd Chinese American restaurant owners took advantage of the publicity surrounding his visit to promote chop suey as Li's favorite.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-5" ]<5]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-5" ]<5]<="" a="">
</a>
Restaurants like this are now rare, but were once a common sight in the United States. Coincidentally, both restaurants are now named Far East Café.
Another myth is that, in the 1860s, a Chinese restaurant cook in San Francisco was forced to serve something to drunken miners after hours, when he had no fresh food. To avoid a beating, the cook threw leftover meat and vegetables into a wok and served it to the miners, who loved it and asked what dish it was—he replied "chopped sui".<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-6" ]<6]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-6" ]<6]<="" a=""> There is no good evidence for any of these stories.</a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-7" ]<7]<="" a="">
</a>
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-14" ]<14]<="" a="">In earlier periods of Chinese history, chop suey or chap sui in Cantonese, and za sui, in Mandarin, has the different meaning of cooked animal offal or entrails. For example, in the classic novel </a>Journey to the West(circa 1590), Sun Wukong tells a lion-monster in chapter 75: "When I passed through Guangzhou, I bought a pot for cooking za sui – so I'll savour your liver, entrails, and lungs."<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-15" ]<15]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-15" ]<15]<="" a=""> The term za sui (杂碎) is found in newer Chinese-English dictionaries with both meanings listed: cooked entrails, and chop suey in the Western sense.[</a>citation needed]
The music video was the band's first collaboration with the acclaimed director Marcos Siega, and is set in the parking lot of the Oak Tree Inn motel in Los Angeles, hometown of the band. The members are performing the song on stage, surrounded by approximately 1,500 fans. Editing devices are used to create the effect of the band members "walking through" one another and teleporting on and off the stage, an effect similar to one used in the Red Hot Chili Peppers video "Around the World". One scene briefly shows Tankian eating chop suey with some fans, the only reference to the title dish in either the song or the video. The video makes use of the SnorriCam technique, in which an actor will have a camera attached to them with a harness, making it appear as though the background is moving and the actor is stationary. In the middle of the video the Flag of Armenia can be seen. The video has been viewed over one billion times on YouTube, making it the first metal music video to do so (shortly followed by "Nothing Else Matters" by Metallica).
As of 2023, the video currently has over 1.2 billion views on YouTube, making it one of the most viewed rock videos on the platform, ranked at tenth place.
The 1920 United States elections was held on November 2. In the aftermath of World War I, the Republican Party re-established the dominant position it lost in the 1910 and 1912 elections. This was the first election after the ratification of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the constitutional right to vote.
Tell that to the people who said to kill myself when I post that Madaras dead lmao! Cant take a joke can they, They said they are peaceful people who don't insult people for being toxic just being nice how great.
Today i got shot by this guest... I can't imagine how this player, looking so innocent, could do such a nasty and horrible thing. I can't express my emotions enough to explain this incident... i was just playing n1... just playing in the castles, and then this player came right by, i thought he would just dont notice me - but no... no! He aimed on me, and... shot me. Right in my torso. I can't explain how i felt at that moment. I was just sitting at my desk, filled with a bunch of thoughts and feelings... how he could do that... how??? And this scoundrel even had the audacity to take my flag!! You imagine??? Take flag of my team! I don't understand why n1 can be so peaceful, yet so cruel...
NO WAY! bruh I hate this game everyday more and more. I enter a game my team trash. Everything is so expensive and laggy. My PC is ten dollars I swear. Literally all the other team does is rush flags so I can’t even grab. Bro my home internet is worst than McDonald internet. My average ping is 250 and my fps is 32. DUMB GAME!
Calm down. I play on mobile. I have 1200 ping and 12 fps all the time. I can enjoy playing! It happens that sometimes my games bug and BIG NOOBS kill me... But that's the game... And I love the new updates.
But you're right, there are players who try the flag to have king or fearless pieces. It's boring....
Also, what is incredibly fascinating about discord users is that when they make an argument, they send a message on DC to request upvotes for their comment. Hilarious photos, lol:
Ah, the itch.io community, a gathering of game developers, enthusiasts, and players alike. But among the various activities that go on in this vibrant ecosystem, there is one that stands out: users writing essays.
Let’s talk about itch.io essays in general, so the itch narrowers don’t get offended:
Yes, you read that right. It's not just about playing games, making games, or chatting with fellow itch.io users. Some of them have a serious itch (pun intended) for writing long-form pieces on games, game development, and gaming culture. And as someone who has read a fair share of these essays, I can tell you that they can be both insightful and hilarious.
First, let's talk about the writing itself. It's not uncommon to find essays on itch.io that are longer than the games they're discussing. And unlike traditional essays that have a clear structure and argument, itch.io essays tend to take on a more meandering, stream-of-consciousness style. One minute, you're reading about the author's personal history with the game, the next you're being regaled with anecdotes from their childhood.
But it's not just the style of writing that's entertaining. It's the content as well. You'll find essays on itch.io that cover a wide range of topics, from the intricacies of game design to the social dynamics of online gaming. And then there are the essays that are just plain weird, like the one that argues that "Animal Crossing" is a metaphor for capitalism or the one that imagines a world where "Pac-Man" is a character in "Game of Thrones."
Perhaps the most amusing thing about itch.io essays is the sheer passion that the authors bring to their writing. These are not dispassionate analyses of games; they're love letters, rants, and pleas for developers to do better. You can feel the author's excitement or frustration seeping through every word, and it's infectious. Even if you don't agree with their opinions, you can't help but be swept up in their enthusiasm.
Of course, as with any online community, there are also some itch.io essays that are just plain bad. There are the ones that are filled with typos and grammatical errors, the ones that make no sense, and the ones that are just plain offensive. But even these essays have their own charm. There's something endearing about someone who's so excited about a game or a topic that they're willing to put their thoughts out there, warts and all.
In the end, I think that's what makes itch.io essays so special. They're not polished or refined, but they're full of heart. They're the product of a community that's passionate about games and about expressing themselves. And even if they're not always serious or scholarly, they're always entertaining. So the next time you're on itch.io, take a moment to read some of the essays. You might just find yourself laughing, crying, suffering, or learning something new.

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_Cream_of_Margie_(with_the_Light_Blue_Hair)#cite_note-Ratings-2" ]<2]<="" a="">Plot[</a>edit]
During a chair hockey game at the power plant with office supplies, Mr. Burns chastises Homer for behaving unprofessionally during the game. Homer gets in more trouble when an ice cream truck passes by the plant, causing him to fantasize that Mr. Burns is an ice cream cone and try to lick him, resulting in Homer being fired as he runs towards the ice cream truck. Homer uses a $100 bill to buy a 25 cent ice cream from the ice cream man, Max, who collapses and dies of a fatal heart attack while changing the bill into coins. Max's widow sells the truck to Homer, and Homer has Otto remodel it à la Pimp My Ride. Meanwhile, the television series Opal — Springfield's version of The Oprah Winfrey Show — has a show about successful women, which sends Marge into a deep depression, as she feels she has not done anything memorable with her life. Marge is inspired by all the Popsicle sticks Homer brings home, and makes sculptures out of them.
Kent Brockman sees the sculptures and interviews Marge, who says she creates them, so they will serve as a reminder of her when she is gone. Kent includes her on a news special, Kent Brockman's Kentresting People. Thanks to the publicity, Rich Texan creates an art show to showcase Marge's talent; however, it opens on Saturday, a day with high ice cream sales. Homer promises to return by 3 o'clock to see the art show. He loses track of time and hurries home, but accidentally crashes into his own lawn in the process, destroying all of Marge's sculptures. Marge says that Homer has ruined her dreams and locks herself in the bedroom.
Several days later, Homer tries to express how bad he feels by slipping pictures of himself under the door, but falls asleep. When he wakes up, Marge is gone and Grandpa is looking after Bart and Lisa, who tell him that Marge left hours ago. Marge is on top of city hall, where she declares she will show the world how she feels about Homer. She reveals the largest Popsicle sculpture she has ever made, and the subject is Homer. Marge realizes that Homer tried to keep his promise to her and make it on time, not that he did not care, much to the shock of a nearby Opal. Marge apologizes to Homer for the way that she acted, Homer apologizes for ruining her sculptures, and the two reunite. The scene shifts 200 years into the future, where the Homer sculpture is the only remaining element of Western art in a world where iPods have conquered humanity, whipping them with headphones for a hobby.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_Cream_of_Margie_(with_the_Light_Blue_Hair)#cite_note-Futon-1" ]<1]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_Cream_of_Margie_(with_the_Light_Blue_Hair)#cite_note-Futon-1" ]<1]<="" a=""> </a>

did y’all know The American Civil War (April 12, 1861 – May 26, 1865; also known by other names) was a civil war in the United States. It was fought between the Union<a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Civil_War#cite_note-20" ]<f]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Civil_War#cite_note-20" ]<f]<="" a=""> ("the North") and the </a>Confederacy ("the South"), the latter formed by states that had seceded. The central cause of the war was the dispute over whether slaverywould be permitted to expand into the western territories, leading to more slave states, or be prevented from doing so, which was widely believed would place slavery on a course of ultimate extinction.
Fleischmann was born in Esslingen am Neckar, the third child of businessman, Wilhelm Adolf Fleischmann, and his wife Paulina Maria (born 18 March 1892 in Esslingen).
After graduation he studied from 1908 at the Kunstgewerbeschule in Stuttgart, and in 1911 moved to the Royal Academy of Arts, where he studied with Adolf Hoelzel and Robert Poetzelberger.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Fleischmann#cite_note-1" ]<1]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Fleischmann#cite_note-1" ]<1]<="" a=""> </a>
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Fleischmann#cite_note-1" ]<1]<="" a="">After a brief spell as a staff illustrator and painter in the Municipal Office of Health Care Exhibition, Stuttgart, and at the workshop on graphic art under </a>Paul Hahn Fleischmann, in 1914 he was drafted into military service. The following year he was on the Eastern Front and so badly wounded, that he was discharged from military service.
Temporarily, he designed book covers for Deutsche Verlags-Anstalt, and the JB Metzler's Verlagsbuchhandlung, both in Stuttgart.
Through the intercession of his half-sister Louise Lotte Volger, who was employed as Moulageuse at the Cantonal Hospital of Zurich, in 1917 he received a job there. Fleischmann worked until July 1928 (with interruptions) as a scientific illustrator in Zurich. Many of the products manufactured by him in plaster casts are preserved and on display at the University Hospital of Zurich.
In 1921, Fleischmann participated in the exhibition of the New Munich Secession. Here he was particularly inspired by Franz Marc and other Expressionists. As a result, he drew expressionist paintings.
This was followed by work trips to Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Paris, but also in Germany (Berlin and Hamburg). In 1925, he was influenced by cubism. In 1928, he took part in the "Juryfreien" exhibitions in Stuttgart and Berlin, and again participated in the "New Secession", Munich.
From 1933 to 1936, he spent a long time in Mallorca and Paris. From 1936 to 1938, he traveled with Bertha Loof, through Italy and stayed mainly on Ischia. In July 1938, his son was born Dieter Loof, who died at the age of about four years.
Since he was now producing abstract painting, he avoided a possible confrontation with the National Socialist regime by moving to France. In Paris, he joined the "Équipe" group. In this way he met influential artists, such as Robert Delaunay and Albert Gleizes. There, he helped the Resistance against the German occupiers. By the end of the war, he lived in various places in southern France, especially in Graulhet, Tarn (department). Several times he was interned, then in camp, "Les Milles" in Aix-en-Provence, from which he managed to escape, in October 1940.
At the end of 1944, Adolf Fleischmann returned from his hideout in southern France back in liberated Paris, where he found a completely devastated studio, with only remnants of his paintings, the work of many years. He literally, "I experienced a nervous breakdown." But with the help of his French friends, he could soon begin his artistic work again, and get involved until his emigration to the U.S. in 1952, participated in exhibitions in Paris. Under the pressure of a violent anti-German feeling, he signed in the early postwar period works with the pseudonym Richard, his middle name. In the catalog of Realitéts Nouvelles No. 1, 1947, is a picture of him. He did not use the pseudonym of Richard in the United States.
At the end of the war and in the early postwar years had a brief first Fleischmann "geometric phase" in the sense of concrete art, which he resigned but was soon in favor of less stringent designs. He joined the group at Réalités nouvelles and moved to Paris for a few years. He earned his living with designs for posters, magazine titles, wallpaper and fabrics (such as towels for Dior).
In 1948, he married Elly Abendstern, and in the same year he had his first solo exhibition in the gallery Creuze in Paris.
In 1950, Fleischmann wrote again to the geometric shape, but less in terms of concrete art, but rather in the context of serial painting. He thus became an early precursor of Op Art. At the age of nearly 60 years he had developed his own distinctive style, characterized by rhythmic grouped narrow strips that are integrated into narrow angle. In 1951 he exhibited his latest works at the Galerie Colette Allendy. He was a member of American Abstract Artists.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Fleischmann#cite_note-2" ]<2]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Fleischmann#cite_note-2" ]<2]<="" a=""> </a>
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Fleischmann#cite_note-2" ]<2]<="" a="">Then he was offered better job opportunities in the U.S., he moved to New York in 1952. Here he lived both as a staff artist, at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of </a>Columbia University, as well as a freelance painter. Solo exhibitions and experiments with cardboard and similar materials to accompany his New York time.
In 1958, he went on visits back to Europe for almost three months, and in this period also saw the subtle change in the severity of his geometric style in favor of looser lines, stripes and figurations. As before, he remained committed to the geometry, but his images were softer.
In 1962, he became seriously ill. During 1963 and 1964, he spent 16 months in Stuttgart. In this period the "Metamorphoses" images: the individual L-forms are pulled together as blocks.
Fleischmann went back to New York in late 1964, where he suffered a severe stroke in 1965. Because of improved medical treatment he returned to Stuttgart. There was held the 1966 Adolf Fleischmann-anniversary exhibition at the Württemberg Art Association, which made him famous overnight, and marked his breakthrough in Germany. In the next two years he created, despite a partial paralysis, twenty relief-like collages.
Fleischmann died on 28 January 1968 in Stuttgart, aged 75, of the after-effects of a stroke; he was buried at the Ebershaldenfriedhof in Esslingen.
Legacy[edit]
In 1973, it was the first large-Adolf Fleischmann retrospectives at the Ulmer Museum, and in 1987 at the Westfälische Landesmuseum in Münster, and the Saarland Museum Modern Gallery. In 2009, a retrospective was held at the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Fleischmann#cite_note-3" ]<3]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Fleischmann#cite_note-3" ]<3]<="" a=""> </a>

The Remington Model 700 is a series of bolt-action centerfire rifles manufactured by Remington Arms since 1962. It is a development of the Remington 721 and 722 series of rifles, which were introduced in 1948. The M24 and M40 military sniper rifles, used by the US Army and Marine Corps, respectively, are both based on the Model 700 design.
The Remington 700 series rifles often come with a 3-, 4- or 5-round internal magazine depending on the caliber chambered, some of which have a hinged floor-plate for quick unloading, and some of which are "blind" (with no floor-plate). The rifle can also be ordered with a detachable box magazine. The Model 700 is available in many different stock, barrel and caliber configurations, with many third-party and aftermarket variants in the market built on the same action footprint. From 1978 to 1982, Remington offered the Sportsman 78 which is the same model 700 action but with cheaper features such as a plain stock without checkering. The Sportsman 78 was not included in the recall that affected the trigger group.
Development[edit]
After World War II, Remington Arms engineer Mike Walker began designing lower-cost alternatives to the Model 30, which resulted in the Model 721. These used a cylindrical receiver produced from cylindrical bar stock that could be turned on a lathe, rather than machined in a series of milling operations, which significantly reduced the cost of production. In addition, small metal parts, including the bottom metal, were stamped, and the stocks were not finished as highly as older models. Further developments of the basic 721 action under the direction of Walker produced the Model 722 and Model 725, and ultimately in 1962, the Model 700.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-1" ]<1]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-1" ]<1]<="" a=""> </a>
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-1" ]<1]<="" a="">Walker sought to increase the accuracy of the rifles, by utilizing tight tolerances in the chamber and bore, a short </a>leade, and a very fast lock time. Like the earlier 721, the Remington 700 action was designed for mass production.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-Haas-2" ]<2]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-Haas-2" ]<2]<="" a=""> Remington initially produced two variants of the Model 700, the ADL and BDL, in both long- and short-action rifles that allowed for the chambering of different cartridges. In 1969, Remington introduced several upgrades for the rifle, including a longer rear bolt shroud, a jeweled bolt and improved stock finishing. Four years later, the production of left-handed versions of the rifle began, to compete with the </a>Savage Model 110, which was at that time the only major rifle manufactured with a left-handed variant. Other versions of the rifle, including the titanium receiver 700ti, the 700 SPS (which replaced the ADL in 2005), and the CDL have since been introduced. In addition to its development as a hunting rifle, the Model 700 also provided the basis for military and police sniper rifles, starting with the M40 rifle in 1966, which was initially ordered by the United States Marine Corps. The US Army adopted the M24 Sniper Weapon System in 1986.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-3" ]<3]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-3" ]<3]<="" a=""> </a>

It is a manually operated bolt action with two forward dual-opposed lugs. The bolt face is recessed, fully enclosing the base of the cartridge, The extractor is a C-clip sitting within the bolt face. The ejector is a plunger on the bolt face actuated by a coil spring. The bolt is of 3-piece construction, brazed together (head, body and bolt handle). The receiver is milled from round cross-section steel.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-Haas-2" ]<2]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-Haas-2" ]<2]<="" a=""> </a>

The short action designed for cartridges having an overall length of 2.750 inches (69.85 mm) or less, such as the .308 Winchester/7.62×51 mm NATO, has a lock time of 2.6 milliseconds.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-4" ]<4]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-4" ]<4]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_700#cite_note-wakeman-5" ]<5]<="" a=""> </a>

Chop suey (/ˈtʃɒpˈsuːi/) is a dish in American Chinese cuisineand other forms of overseas Chinese cuisine, consisting of meat (usually chicken, pork, beef, shrimp or fish) and eggs, cooked quickly with vegetables such as bean sprouts, cabbage, and celery and bound in a starch-thickened sauce. It is typically served with rice but can become the Chinese-American form of chow mein with the substitution of stir-fried noodles for rice.
Chop sui has become a prominent part of American Chinese cuisine, Filipino cuisine, Canadian Chinese cuisine, German Chinese cuisine, Indian Chinese cuisine, and Polynesian cuisine. In Chinese Indonesian cuisine/Dutch Chinese Indonesian cuisine it is known as cap cai (tjap tjoi) (雜菜, "mixed vegetables") and mainly consists of vegetables.
Origins[edit]
Chop suey is widely believed to have been developed in the U.S. by Chinese Americans, but the anthropologist E. N. Anderson, a scholar of Chinese food, traces the dish to tsap seui (杂碎, "miscellaneous leftovers"), common in Taishan (Toisan), a county in Guangdong province, the home of many early Chinese immigrants to the United States.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-1" ]<1]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-1" ]<1]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-2" ]<2]<="" a=""> Hong Kong doctor </a>Li Shu-fan likewise reported that he knew it in Toisan in the 1890s.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-3" ]<3]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-3" ]<3]<="" a=""> </a>
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-3" ]<3]<="" a="">The long list of conflicting stories about the origin of chop suey is, in the words of food historian Alan Davidson, "a prime example of culinary mythology" and typical of popular foods.</a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-4" ]<4]<="" a=""> </a>
Filipino chop suey, introduced during the American colonial period of the Philippines
One account claims that it was invented by Chinese American cooks working on the transcontinental railroad in the 19th century. Another tale is that it was created during Qing Dynasty premier Li Hongzhang's visit to the United States in 1896 by his chef, who tried to create a meal suitable for both Chinese and American palates. Another story is that Li wandered to a local Chinese restaurant after the hotel kitchen had closed, where the chef, embarrassed that he had nothing ready to offer, came up with the new dish using scraps of leftovers. Yet recent research by the scholar Renqui Yu led him to conclude that "no evidence can be found in available historical records to support the story that Li Hung Chang ate chop suey in the United States." Li brought three Chinese chefs with him, and would not have needed to eat in local restaurants or invent new dishes in any case. Yu speculates that shrewd Chinese American restaurant owners took advantage of the publicity surrounding his visit to promote chop suey as Li's favorite.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-5" ]<5]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-5" ]<5]<="" a=""> </a>

Far East Chop Suey restaurant in Little Tokyo, Los Angeles
Restaurants like this are now rare, but were once a common sight in the United States. Coincidentally, both restaurants are now named Far East Café.
Another myth is that, in the 1860s, a Chinese restaurant cook in San Francisco was forced to serve something to drunken miners after hours, when he had no fresh food. To avoid a beating, the cook threw leftover meat and vegetables into a wok and served it to the miners, who loved it and asked what dish it was—he replied "chopped sui".<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-6" ]<6]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-6" ]<6]<="" a=""> There is no good evidence for any of these stories.</a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_suey#cite_note-7" ]<7]<="" a=""> </a>

"Chop Suey!" is the first single from Armenian-American heavy metal band System of a Down's second album Toxicity. The single was released in August 13, 2001 and earned the band its first Grammy nomination in 2002 for Best Metal Performance. "Chop Suey!" is often seen as the band's signature song.
Overview[edit]
In an interview, Daron Malakian explained, "The song is about how we are regarded differently depending on how we pass. Everyone deserves to die. Like, if I were now to die from drug abuse, they might say I deserved it because I abused dangerous drugs. Hence the line, 'I cry when angels deserve to die.'"<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_Suey!_(song)#cite_note-5" ]<5]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_Suey!_(song)#cite_note-5" ]<5]<="" a=""> The lyrics for the midsection ("Father into your hands I commend my spirit") were randomly picked out by </a>Serj Tankianfrom Rick Rubin's book collection after Tankian was struggling for ideas.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_Suey!_(song)#cite_note-6" ]<6]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_Suey!_(song)#cite_note-6" ]<6]<="" a=""> Although it was not revealed what book the line was taken from, it is originally from </a>the Bible, appearing in Luke 23:46.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_Suey!_(song)#cite_note-7" ]<7]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_Suey!_(song)#cite_note-7" ]<7]<="" a=""> </a>
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_Suey!_(song)#cite_note-7" ]<7]<="" a="">Song title[</a>edit]
The song was originally titled "Suicide" but Columbia Recordsforced the band to change it to avoid controversy.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_Suey!_(song)#cite_note-8" ]<8]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_Suey!_(song)#cite_note-8" ]<8]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_Suey!_(song)#cite_note-shavoLW-9" ]<9]<="" a=""> The song title is therefore a wordplay: "Suey" is "suicide", "chopped" in half.</a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_Suey!_(song)#cite_note-shavoLW-9" ]<9]<="" a=""> However, the band members claim this change was not caused by pressure from their record company; Odadjian said the band simply chose their battles carefully.</a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chop_Suey!_(song)#cite_note-shavoLW-9" ]<9]<="" a=""> Most pressings of the album include an intro to the track where lead singer </a>Serj Tankian can faintly be heard saying "we're rolling 'Suicide'" while drummer John Dolmayan is counting the band in.
Music video[edit]
The music video was the band's first collaboration with the acclaimed director Marcos Siega, and is set in the parking lot of the Oak Tree Inn motel in Los Angeles, hometown of the band. The members are performing the song on stage, surrounded by approximately 1,500 fans. Editing devices are used to create the effect of the band members "walking through" one another and teleporting on and off the stage, an effect similar to one used in the Red Hot Chili Peppers video "Around the World". One scene briefly shows Tankian eating chop suey with some fans, the only reference to the title dish in either the song or the video. The video makes use of the SnorriCam technique, in which an actor will have a camera attached to them with a harness, making it appear as though the background is moving and the actor is stationary. In the middle of the video the Flag of Armenia can be seen. The video has been viewed over one billion times on YouTube, making it the first metal music video to do so (shortly followed by "Nothing Else Matters" by Metallica).
As of 2023, the video currently has over 1.2 billion views on YouTube, making it one of the most viewed rock videos on the platform, ranked at tenth place.
Reception[edit]

"Chop Suey!" is the first single of Toxicity, an album that was number one on the charts during the week of the September 11, 2001 attacks. A controversy surrounding the popular single, especially the line '"I don't think you trust in my self-righteous suicide"', at the time led to Clear Channel Radio placing the song on a list of post-9/11 inappropriate titles.

The 1920 United States elections was held on November 2. In the aftermath of World War I, the Republican Party re-established the dominant position it lost in the 1910 and 1912 elections. This was the first election after the ratification of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the constitutional right to vote.
In the presidential election, Republican Senator Warren G. Harding from Ohio defeated Democratic Governor James M. Cox of Ohio.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1920_United_States_elections#cite_note-1" ]<1]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1920_United_States_elections#cite_note-1" ]<1]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1920_United_States_elections#cite_note-congress1-2" ]<2]<="" a=""> Harding won a </a>landslide victory, taking every state outside the South and dominating the popular vote. Harding won the Republican nomination on the tenth ballot, defeating former Army Chief of Staff Leonard Wood, Illinois Governor Frank Lowden, California Senator Hiram Johnson, and several other candidates. Cox won the Democratic nomination on the 44th ballot over former Treasury Secretary William Gibbs McAdoo, Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, New York Governor Al Smith, and several other candidates. Future president Calvin Coolidge won the Republican nomination for vice president, while fellow future president Franklin D. Roosevelt won the Democratic nomination for vice president. Harding was the first sitting senator to be elected president.
The Republicans made large gains in the House and the Senate, strengthening their majority in both chambers. They picked up 63 seats in the House of Representatives, furthering their majority over the Democrats. The Republicans also strengthened their majority in the Senate, gaining ten seats.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1920_United_States_elections#cite_note-congress1-2" ]<2]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1920_United_States_elections#cite_note-congress1-2" ]<2]<="" a=""> </a>

wtf no one told you that
Yea bruh, oh sorry MrIgoteyeseverywere
It's ok.
Omg
yes I agree cuz this is pretty cringe
Really cringe...
I AGREE I GIT DC AND ITCH NO FING WAR!!!
Today i got shot by this guest... I can't imagine how this player, looking so innocent, could do such a nasty and horrible thing. I can't express my emotions enough to explain this incident... i was just playing n1... just playing in the castles, and then this player came right by, i thought he would just dont notice me - but no... no! He aimed on me, and... shot me. Right in my torso. I can't explain how i felt at that moment. I was just sitting at my desk, filled with a bunch of thoughts and feelings... how he could do that... how??? And this scoundrel even had the audacity to take my flag!! You imagine??? Take flag of my team! I don't understand why n1 can be so peaceful, yet so cruel...
NO WAY! bruh I hate this game everyday more and more. I enter a game my team trash. Everything is so expensive and laggy. My PC is ten dollars I swear. Literally all the other team does is rush flags so I can’t even grab. Bro my home internet is worst than McDonald internet. My average ping is 250 and my fps is 32. DUMB GAME!
Hate it?!
Sounds like some "you" problems if you ask me.
Also, you should ask bowboi about this, his situation is even worse!
D:
💀
And itchys says there the most calmest people that just love playing the game
your PC is $10?
mb $5
Rest in peace, Skyzess.
Calm down. I play on mobile. I have 1200 ping and 12 fps all the time. I can enjoy playing! It happens that sometimes my games bug and BIG NOOBS kill me... But that's the game... And I love the new updates.
But you're right, there are players who try the flag to have king or fearless pieces. It's boring....
Also, what is incredibly fascinating about discord users is that when they make an argument, they send a message on DC to request upvotes for their comment. Hilarious photos, lol:
Argument creator:
Their side:

It’s pretty much the opposite but nice meme ig
Ah, the itch.io community, a gathering of game developers, enthusiasts, and players alike. But among the various activities that go on in this vibrant ecosystem, there is one that stands out: users writing essays.
Let’s talk about itch.io essays in general, so the itch narrowers don’t get offended:
Yes, you read that right. It's not just about playing games, making games, or chatting with fellow itch.io users. Some of them have a serious itch (pun intended) for writing long-form pieces on games, game development, and gaming culture. And as someone who has read a fair share of these essays, I can tell you that they can be both insightful and hilarious.
First, let's talk about the writing itself. It's not uncommon to find essays on itch.io that are longer than the games they're discussing. And unlike traditional essays that have a clear structure and argument, itch.io essays tend to take on a more meandering, stream-of-consciousness style. One minute, you're reading about the author's personal history with the game, the next you're being regaled with anecdotes from their childhood.
But it's not just the style of writing that's entertaining. It's the content as well. You'll find essays on itch.io that cover a wide range of topics, from the intricacies of game design to the social dynamics of online gaming. And then there are the essays that are just plain weird, like the one that argues that "Animal Crossing" is a metaphor for capitalism or the one that imagines a world where "Pac-Man" is a character in "Game of Thrones."
Perhaps the most amusing thing about itch.io essays is the sheer passion that the authors bring to their writing. These are not dispassionate analyses of games; they're love letters, rants, and pleas for developers to do better. You can feel the author's excitement or frustration seeping through every word, and it's infectious. Even if you don't agree with their opinions, you can't help but be swept up in their enthusiasm.
Of course, as with any online community, there are also some itch.io essays that are just plain bad. There are the ones that are filled with typos and grammatical errors, the ones that make no sense, and the ones that are just plain offensive. But even these essays have their own charm. There's something endearing about someone who's so excited about a game or a topic that they're willing to put their thoughts out there, warts and all.
In the end, I think that's what makes itch.io essays so special. They're not polished or refined, but they're full of heart. They're the product of a community that's passionate about games and about expressing themselves. And even if they're not always serious or scholarly, they're always entertaining. So the next time you're on itch.io, take a moment to read some of the essays. You might just find yourself laughing, crying, suffering, or learning something new.
I’m just saying.
Salute!
as a itch user i can confirm
