Strength of Schedule 

term used, often in America Football, particularly College Football, in describing the difficulty of opponents a team has faced. The harder the S.O.S., the better as the team is more likely to be pardoned for losing games if they typically face better opponents.
Ohio State beat out Baylor and TCU to grab the fourth and final spot of the 2014 college football playoffs because Ohio State had a better strength of schedule as well as out of conference schedule. So though all three had lost one game each, the committee believed Ohio State's strength of schedule warranted them being awarded the final spot in the rankings.

Scheveningen 

Scheveningen is a city in The Netherlands.

The Dutch try to get American tourists to say it for their own pleasure and laughs. They can't. You have to have the "schhuuchhh" in your throat (like a bug is in there). Don't try because you'll practice for a long time and get nowhere. I tried.
Dutch Boy: Say "Scheveningen"

American Girl: Shev-en-innngeeen? Shabahahabla?

Dutch Boy: Hahaha

American Girl: What did I say?

Dutch Boy: Scheveningen; it's a city. American's and German's can't say it.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.
