ID W,X,Y and Z
W and her two younger sisters, X and Y, were part of an educational experiment carried out by their father Z, who sought to prove that children could make exceptional achievements if trained in a specialist subject from a very early age. "Geniuses are made, not born," was Z's thesis. He and his wife Klara educated their three daughters at home, with ____ as the specialist subject. The father also taught his three daughters Esperanto. Most of her family eventually emigrated to Israel, but W moved to New York after marrying an American in 1994.
Although W's home was very humble, her father was a man with a unique vision. A trained psychologist, Z, had made a deep study of the childhood origins of genius. The archetypal example was Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Already composing at the age of five, he seemed to be the classic case of a child born with special gifts, but Z noted that Mozart's father Leopold, himself an accomplished musician, gave his son early and invaluable schooling in his craft.
Z decided that specialised training was more important than natural talent and he had an astonishing plan that would put his theory to the test.
When W was born in April of 1969, the family experiment was underway.
Z planned to train W in mathematics but, she chose her own future by a happy accident. One day while searching for a new toy, she happened across a ________. Z himself was convinced he could train his daughter to be a genius at anything, as long as she was a willing student.

The sequence was created by Maurice Binder for the opening titles of the first film of the franchise , in 1962. Binder originally planned to employ a camera sighted down the barrel of a .38 calibre gun, but this caused some problems. Unable to stop down the lens of a standard camera enough to bring the entire gun barrel into focus, Binder created a pinhole camera to solve the problem and the barrel became crystal clear. Binder described the genesis of the sequence in the last interview he recorded before his death in 1991:
“ That was something I did in a hurry, because I had to get to a meeting with the producers in twenty minutes. I just happened to have little white, price tag stickers and I thought I'd use them as gun shots across the screen. We'd have X walk through and fire, at which point blood comes down onscreen. That was about a twenty-minute storyboard I did, and they said, "This looks great!"
It has also been observed that the sequence recalls the gun fired at the audience at the end of The Great Train Robbery (1903).

Chris Dickens rocks !
The Blood and Ice Cream Trilogy, also known as the Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy, is a series of films created by X and Edgar Wright, and starring X and Nick Frost in leading roles. The first two films in the series are Y, a zombie comedy with romantic comedy elements, and Z, a buddy cop action/comedy film. A third film, provisionally titled The World's End, is slated for the future.
Each film is connected to a Cornetto ice cream flavour - both of the films released to date feature scenes in which one of the main characters purchases a Cornetto of the appropriate flavour. Y features a (red) strawberry Cornetto, Z includes a (blue) Classico flavour, and The World's End is due to feature a green mint choc chip ice-cream. The use of the three colours of Cornetto is a reference to Krzysztof Kieslowski's Three Colours film trilogy.
"It was an incredible blend of badgering, cajolery, reminders of past favours, promises of future favours, predictions of gloom if something doesn't happen. When that man started to work on you, all of a sudden, you just felt that you were standing under a waterfall and the stuff was pouring on you."

For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah; and there was peace.

The pilots of the Royal Air Force are attributed to the origin of the word X. The earliest recorded use of the word X, in print occurs in the RAF journal "Aeroplane" (1929), in Malta:
When you're seven miles up in the heavens,
And it's fifty degrees below zero
....................
When you're thousands of miles from nowhere
And there's nothing below but the drink
It's then you will see the X
Green and gamboge and gold
Male and female and neuter
X both young and old
...................
Some people attribute the origin of this word to the Old English term ______ (to vex) or the Irish-Gaelic word _____ (ill-humoured ______).
This word was an indigenous slang to the Royal Air Force, until author Roald Dahl popularized the idea in his novel "The X" (1943). Roald Dahl was so interested by the idea, that he gave specific names to the genders: widgets (male) & fifinellas (female), and sent a finshed manuscript to Walt Disney.
X also has its own share of TV apperances; in: Merrie Melodies (with Bugs Bunny), Nightmare at 20,000 feet, The Simpsons (Terror at 5 1/2 feet) etc. All subsequent appearances paralleled X's role in Nightmare at 20,000 feet.

The sensation caused in the 1930s by X's ten–minute nude bathing scene in a Czechoslovakian movie has given wide currency to the mistaken idea that X was the first nude actress on screen. Her first husband was an armaments manufacturer who told her how easy it was to block the radio signals then used to control torpedos.When she discovered that he was selling weapons to Hitler, she was horrified, disguised herself as a maid to escape him, and fled to Hollywood to continue her career as a movie actress. In her spare time, she invented Y to help the Allied war effort. Her scheme used 88 frequencies, the number of keys (and frequencies) on the piano. For their invention, she and her friend, the musical composer Z, received a U.S. patent. However, they were unable to convince the U.S. Navy that their invention had any practical use and never received any royalties. Only years after the patent expired did it become popular.

The oldest known source, but questionable explanation for the expression X dates to the 13th century in one of the earliest English statutes, instituted during the reign of Henry III (1216–1272), called the Assize of Bread and Ale. ___ who were found to have shortchanged customers could be subject to severe punishment. To guard against the punishment of losing a hand to an axe,they would give thirteen for the price of twelve, to be certain of not being known as a cheat. Specifically, this practice was insurance against "short measure", on the basis that one of the thirteen could be lost, eaten, burnt, or ruined in some way. The practice can be seen in the guild codes of the Worshipful Company of ___ in London.
