Maxwell’s Silver Hammer

A borrowed term applied to the fact that the jet-setting madam, Ghislaine Maxwell, is still around to drop her silver hammer upon the guilty heads of the powerfully rich and famous.
“Bang-bang, Maxwell’s Silver Hammer came down on his head; bang-bang Maxwell’s Silver Hammer made sure that he was dead!”

Maxwell's demon

a hypothetical being that could separate a mixture of hot and cold water into two compartments: hot and cold water, letting the hotter-than-average portion through a trapdoor between the compartments. Maxwell's demon challenges the second law of thermodynamics: when hot and cold water are mixed, it will reach an equilibrium middling temperature.
It has emerged that Maxwell's demon can covert information into energy.

maxwell street polish

A Maxwell Street Polish consists of a grilled all-beef Polish sausage topped with grilled onions and yellow mustard and the optional sport peppers, on a bun. The sandwich was first created by Jimmy Stefanovic, a Macedonian immigrant, who took over his aunt and uncle's hot-dog stand (now Jim's Original) in Chicago's Maxwell Street marketplace in 1939.

The Maxwell Street Polish soon grew to be one of Chicago's most popular local sandwiches, along with the Chicago hot-dog and Italian Beef. It is served by restaurants around the city, and is common at sporting events. Many small vendors specialize in the Maxwell Street Polish along with the pork-chop sandwich.

Some variations exist. For example, some hot-dog vendors offer a "Maxwell Street hot dog" in which a hot dog is substituted for the Polish sausage.

Due to UIC's South Campus development, the two famous Maxwell Street Polish stands, Jim's Original and Maxwell St. Express Grill, both of which coexisted side by side for decades at Halsted and Maxwell streets, have now relocated a half block east to Union Avenue, adjacent to the Dan Ryan Expressway on-ramp at Roosevelt Road.
