A Walking Dead Zone is an area for people with mobile phones who are currently experiencing the inconvenience of not being able to transmit to a nearby mobile site, base station, or any other similar Wi-Fi points of access. In these areas, the mobile phone is said to be in a state of outage. Walking Dead Zones is usually where Wi-Fi service is not available because the signal between the handset and mobile site antennas is blocked or severely reduced, usually by hilly terrain, spooky graveyards, dense foliage, physical distance, or interference from the Talking Dead. This will cause most mobile phone users who have no means of transportation to keep “walking “ until they are finally within range of a verifiable signal. Some of these Talking Dead who are traversing the Walking Dead Zones, have been known to utter out incoherent ramblings, such as, “Out of range!” “Out of range!”

Get the Walking Dead Zone mug.Augustine's laws were a series of tongue in cheek aphorisms put forth by Norman Ralph Augustine, an American aerospace businessman who served as Under Secretary of the Army from 1975 to 1977. In 1984 he published his laws. The book and several of the laws were the topic of an article in Sound and Vibration magazine in March 2012. His most cited law is number 16, which shows that defense budgets grow linearly but the unit cost of a new military aircraft grows exponentially.
“In the year 2054, the entire defense budget will purchase just one tactical aircraft. This aircraft will have to be shared by the Air Force and Navy 3 days each per week except for leap year, when it will be made available to the Marines for the extra day.“ - Augustine’s law’s: XVI

Get the Augustine’s law’s mug.mise en abyme is a term used in Western art history to describe a formal technique of placing a copy of an image within itself, often in a way that suggests an infinitely recurring sequence.
In film and literary theory, it refers to the technique of inserting a story within a story. A common sense of the phrase is the visual experience of standing between two mirrors, then seeing as a result an infinite reproduction of one's image. Mise en abyme occurs within a text when there is a reduplication of images or concepts referring to the textual whole. Mise en abyme is a play of signifiers within a text, of sub-texts mirroring each other. This mirroring can get to the point where meaning may be rendered unstable and, in this respect, may be seen as part of the process of deconstruction. In literary criticism, mise en abyme is a type of frame story, in which the core narrative may be used to illuminate some aspect of the framing story. The term is used in deconstruction and deconstructive literary criticism as a paradigm of the intertextual nature of language, that is, of the way language never quite reaches the foundation of reality because it refers in a frame-within-a-frame way, to other language, which refers to other language, and so forth.

From a visual standpoint, it's the pain you get throughout your wrist and hands, after constant use or masturbation. Sometimes this can lead to cramping, which in turn can cause blue balls, bitching, a decline in motivation, and the loss of busting a nut. It can actually make hand jobs from yourself or other people, seem to be out of the question or just more difficult to complete.
Hey Lisa! I heard one of your trick's didn't have enough for a quickie, right? No Pam. I was in too much pain from a sext claw halfway through, and just told him it was on the house.

When the water in the lower soup can, which was attached to the trigger of the rifle, reached a certain weight, the rifle was fired. This ruse could lead a battle front of defenders, into believing that there could still be troops opposing them, while the soldiers were being evacuated. Lots of drip rifles can be set to go off at different times, to give the impression that the enemy forces, were still in a defensive position.
“The Anzac soldiers in the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps of 1914 - 1918, would sometimes employ the specialized use of a drip rifle, in order to confuse or manipulate the opposing offense into believing that they were at a tactical disadvantage, when in fact, they were not.”

And while the appearance may be recursive, the smaller version contains an even smaller version of the picture, and so on. Only in theory could this go on forever, as fractals can sometimes do; practically, it continues only as long as the resolution of the picture allows, which is relatively short, since each iteration geometrically reduces the picture's size.
This sentence says, "This sentence says, "This sentence says, "This sentence says, "..."""" - (example of the droste effect )

Penology is concerned with the effectiveness of those social processes devised and adopted for the prevention of crime, via the repression or inhibition of criminal intent via the fear of punishment. The study of penology therefore deals with the treatment of prisoners and the subsequent rehabilitation of convicted criminals. It also encompasses aspects of probation (rehabilitation of offenders in the community) as well as penitentiary science relating to the secure detention and retraining of offenders committed to secure institutions.

Penology concerns many topics and theories, including those concerning prisons (prison reform, prisoner abuse, prisoners' rights, and recidivism), as well as theories of the purposes of punishment (deterrence, retribution, incapacitation and rehabilitation). Contemporary penology concerns itself mainly with criminal rehabilitation and prison management. The word seldom applies to theories and practices of punishment in less formal environments such as parenting, school and workplace correctional measures.
