Children of Men

A great but slightly-depressing movie starring Clive Owen as a guy who is trying to save the only pregnant woman on future Earth. Features great camera work and Michael Caine is awesome as a John Lennon-like hippie who calls everyone "amigo".
Children of Men was robbed at the Oscars.

Chiberia

Chi-beria is a term coined by NWS meteorologist Ricky Castro (on his way to work) before the 1/6/2014 polar vortex outbreak. The City of Chicago and greater suburban areas reached AIR temperatures at around -15 degree Fahrenheit. Combined with even colder wind chills of down to -50 degrees Fahrenheit and about a foot of snow, social media controller for the NWS decided it would accurately depict the severity of the upcoming weather and cause people to take precaution. The word went viral via hastags (#) and became to be used as a term to describe Chicago during periods of extreme cold weather. Simple etymology consists of combining the names "Chicago" with "Siberia". It means conditions for the city will or currently rival conditions of Siberia, notorious for extreme cold and snow.
"Man it's cold today in Chicago"
"yeah, welcome to Chiberia dude"

"With temperatures staying below zero for over 48 hours, you wouldn't be able to tell if you're in Chicago or Siberia. Perhaps you're in Chiberia"

"Chicago experienced the biggest chill in nearly 20 years. We’re talking (feels like) tempeatures of -40 to -50 degrees. Keep warm, Chicago! #Chiberia"--fox chicago news

Chilean Way

A way of doing things or solving problems with very little resources but meticulously planned in order to obtain the best possible result or the greatest benefit from a difficult or unsafe situation.-

Although it derived from the spanish original "A la Chilena", which has a broader meaning, the english form is more often used, even by spanish speakers, to denote the more specific meaning written above.

The term was coined locally in South America in the mid-eighties, when, under Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship, chileans managed to survive a great economic depression by being very inventive business-wise and diversified the country's economy, rather intuitively than with actual training.

The "Chilean Way" met global significance in February 2010 when Chilean newly elected State Officers faced the "2010 Concepcion earthquake" and were challenged with Reconstruction issues, wich they did very effectively and efficiently in order to solve immediate needs of nearly 2 million of the most affected people.

Further world recognition of the phrase came after the rescue of 33 copper miners, that same year, who spent 69 days trapped over 2,300 ft (700 mts) underground, with no casualties whatsoever.
- Dude, how did you managed to throw a party with so little cash?
- Chilean way, dude... the chilean way.
----------------------------------------
- I can't believe they're making us build this model overnight!
- We're gonna solve this the chilean way, alright, mate?
- Alright, mate. I'll bring snacks, you make some coffee.

Children of Bodom

One of the Best progressive/melodic death metal bands ever. Alexi Laiho, the guitarist, is one of the best guitarists in the world, and isn't too bad at singing either. Other members include Jaska Raatikainen, who plays the drums; Henkka Blacksmith, who plays the bass; Janne Warman, who plays the keyboard; and lastly, Alexander Kuoppala, who recently left the band, and has been replaced for the time being with Roope Latvala. The band's name came from one of the biggest murder mysteries in the band's home country of Finland, nearly 45 years ago, which revolved around 4 kids camping near lake bodom. 3 of the 4 were violently murdered, and the fourth was put in a mental instutution. It has come out recently though, that the fouth kid was the murderer. Children of Bodom's music is a blend of metal, and neoclassical melodies. Their latest album, Hatecrew Deathroll, has at least one great solo in every single song. If you haven't checked them out yet, do so. I command it.
Their albums and EPs:

1)Something Wild
2)Children of Bodom
3)Downfall
4)Hatebreeder
5)Tokyo Warheats (live album)
6)HATE ME!
7)Follow the Reaper
8)You're Better Off Dead!
