• He created his most famous work in 1917, a poster to encourage recruitment in the United States Army during World War I. It showed Uncle Sam pointing at the viewer (inspired by a British recruitment poster showing Lord Kitchener in a similar pose) with the caption "I Want YOU for U.S. Army".[3] Over four million copies of the poster were printed during World War I, and it was revived for World War II. Flagg used his own face for that of Uncle Sam (adding age and the white goatee), he said later, simply to avoid the trouble of arranging for a model. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt praised his resourcefulness for using his own face as the model. By some accounts though, Flagg had a neighbor, Walter Botts, pose for the piece.

• What am I talking about?

• The prefix of the word “X” comes from believe that the phases of the Y could induce insanity or epilepsy in certain individuals. Both Aristotle and Roman historian Pliny the Elder taught that the moistness of the brain made it susceptible to changes based on the position of the Y.This belief endured up through the Middle Ages and is likely the reason why werewolves and other fictional creatures were thought to emerge during certain phases of Y. “X” even appeared in several official US federal laws until 2012, when Congress agreed to replace it with more modern and scientifically accurate terminology.

• As the story goes, the ancestors of X’s Hindu population lived beside the vast lake where a demon known as Jalodbhava terrorized them. Since Jalodbhava was invincible while in the water, they could not hope to defeat him until the arrival of the ancient sage Kashyap. The sage beseeched Vishnu who pierced the side of a mountain, creating a deep gorge which completely drained the lake. Jalodbhava, now on dry land, lost his invincibility and was annihilated by the gods. Thus, the new area became known as what could be roughly translated as “the abode of Kashyap"

• I’m sure the English language media will have a field-day thinking of puns for headlines. I’ll get the ball rolling with my own suggestions for X puns. We can play X pun bingo by crossing them off as the media uses them:

• X's all that• That’s what X said• X doesn’t know who I am (and X doesn’t give a damn about me)• Murder, X wrote• X's way out of my league• He said, X said• X loves me, X loves me not• X loves me, yeah, yeah, yeah• X's the one for me• X's gotta have it• Imagine this:

• “Angela Merkel met with X last Thursday. She said that the talks were successful, but X’s not that easy to gauge.”

• Xi Jinping

• X was originally conceived as an enemy of international terrorism. Interestingly, in his debut issue, X was unleashed as an international terror weapon by an evil scientist . X, in this first mission, was tasked with stealing a golden statue of a Goddess from a temple that was protected by tribal devotees, and by a mysterious 300 -year old Sadhu named Baba Gorakhnath. X succeeded in his task, but upon confrontation with Gorakhnath and his mystic Black Mongoose shikangi, was defeated. Gorakhnath read his mind and discovered that the evil scientist had implanted a mind control device in the form of a capsule in X's head, to keep him under his control. Gorakhnath operated and removed the capsule from X's head, setting X free of the scientist's control. X then became Baba Goraknath's disciple and vowed to eliminate crime and terror from the Earth. Since then, X has thrice toured the world and defeated many villains and terrorists.

• It was first patented on May 11, 1965, by David E. Hansen of Fairport, NY. Mr. Hansen was an engineer at the Eastman Kodak Company.

• It consists of a circular tray .with a metal plate on the bottom with an opening about 5 cm wide The body contains a motor which rotates the plastic main body of the tray ( while the metal plate is fixed with the opening As the tray is advanced, a reciprocating mechanism takes place

• A common series with a horizontally mounted tray was introduced in the spring of 1962 by Kodak (Kodak Carousel/Ektagraphic). The earliest Carousel models (mostly known as the 500-series) are compatible only with the 80- trays.

• The Kodak system offered three advantages over the straight-tray, horizontal-feed systems that were then common on the market. The Carousel tray had a locking ring on its hub, preventing accidental spilling out of the tray if it was dropped. By using gravity the chance of jamming was greatly reduced,The circular tray also enabled automatic action without the need to manually reset .

• It was discontinued in October 2004.• What am I talking about is the earliest known form of something.• What?
