As of 2010, Bosco is produced in several flavors in addition to the original chocolate: berry blue, strawberry, caramel, sugar free, and "sugar free pancake syrup" (presumably[by whom?] maple).

Man of Steel is a 2013 American superhero film directed by Zack Snyder, produced by Christopher Nolan, and scripted by David S. Goyer. It employs non-linear storytelling.

Using tacks on a piano runs the risk that the tacks will be ejected from the hammers and can then become lodged in other parts of the mechanism. If the jammed mechanism is then forced by hitting the keys, parts of the action may be broken. More importantly, the holes created in the hammers by the tacks dramatically weaken the hammer felt (which is stretched at high tension over the hammer wood),[1] and may permanently reduce the sound of the piano to dark mush once the tacks are removed.

There is no known cure or vaccine against the coxsackie.

Iam Hungry – A short-lived McDonaldland character who was the self-proclaimed "Vice President of Snacking". He was introduced in 1998 and dropped in 2001. The character was a floating, fast-moving green fuzzball with orange arms and a monstrous face. He would often appear when Ronald was dining with kids and would constantly crave food. He would never stop pestering them until he got fed. Iam Hungry was featured in The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald VHS, titled "Visitors from Outer Space" where he eats the gunk off of Ronald's rocket.

Formatted properly, the abbreviation has a single period after it ("cf.", not "c.f.") because it represents a shortening of a single word – confer – not two words (cf. "q.v."). With incorrect formatting that used two periods ("c.f.") the result would be an abbreviation of two words that could mean, for example, "centrifugal force",[11] or "Chaplain to the Forces".[12]

Crystal City is an urban neighborhood in the southeastern corner of Arlington County, Virginia, south of downtown Washington, D.C.. Its residents can live, shop, and work without going outside, due to its extensive integration of office buildings and residential high-rise buildings using underground corridors.

It includes offices of numerous defense contractors, the United States Department of Labor, the United States Marshals Service, the EPA and many satellite offices for The Pentagon.
