X was an expat, British, mostly female, Celtic progressive metal/goth

band, best known for performing nude and incorporating sexual acts
and Pagan rituals into their performances.
X became infamous for performing live sex acts with audience
members as well via “The Golden Condom” where a condom is
thrown to the crowd and whoever caught it was taken backstage for
sexual relations with one or more band members.
This led to critics saying they tried to use sex and paganism to sell
bad music however fellow musicians have voiced their appreciation.

The earliest incarnation was shaped like a heraldic crest or a

police badge. By 1939 serifs were added and upper serif
migrated to the top right corner eventually. The outer border
was sometimes colored red, but colorists couldn’t settle on a
unified color scheme. During 1986 reboot, emblem was
larger, straighter, and with a V-shaped upper serif. 1997 saw
a complete new look with reimagined “electric” emblem.
Finally in 2011 the lower serif was removed with the old color
scheme(though some artists continued to draw it).

X is a practicing Muslim. He recites the Quran before his

matches. Talking to the Berlin-based daily Der Tagesspiegel,

and my teammates know that they cannot talk to me during
this brief period."He observes fasting during the Islamic
month of Ramadan however he has admitted that: "Because
of my job I cannot follow Ramadan properly. I do it only the
few days I can, only when I have a free day. But other than
that it's impossible, because you have to drink and eat a lot to
stay at peak fitness." X kaun hai?

Kip Stephen Thorne is an American theoretical physicist, known for his

prolific contributions in gravitational physics and astrophysics and for
having trained a generation of scientists. A longtime friend and
colleague of Stephen Hawking and Carl Sagan, he was the Feynman
Professor of Theoretical Physics at the Caltech until 2009 and one of
the world’s leading experts on the astrophysical implications of
Einstein’s Theory of Relativity. He is perhaps best known to the public
for his controversial theory that wormholes can conceivably be used for
time travel. However, Thorne's scientific contributions, which center on
the general nature of space, time, and gravity, span the full range of
topics in general relativity.
His works are going to make a mark in the field of entertainment. How?

X, meaning fishing out or rescuing is a practise

amongst ladder competitions (those with a series of
rounds of competition) that allows participants who
failed to meet qualifying standards by a small margin
to continue to the next round.
The theory is that a worthy competitor who is paired
with another worthy competitor should not be unduly
penalized by luck of the draw, but have an opportunity
to fight for at least third place.
X has proved lucky for India on more than one
occasion.

X is a series of seven controversial Japanese gore-slasher horror films from the 1980-90s. The
series achieved global notoriety mostly for the first two films as the producer needed to prove
that nobody was actually hurt or murdered. The producer Hideshi Hino's original concept was to
create a film adaptation of his manga work.
The tapes gained notoriety in Japan during the late 1980s and early 1990s when the fourth film
of the series (Mermaid in a Manhole) was found showcased in the 5,763 videotape collection of
Japanese serial killer Tsotumo Miyazaki. It was erroneously reported originally as being the
second film of the series. It was widely but mistakenly believed that Miyazaki re-enacted a scene
from the second film as a part of his crimes. Because of the initial controversy surrounding the
series, the series went out of production in Japan. However, the entire series has since been
reissued on DVD in the United States, the Netherlands, the UK, and Austria.
In 1991, the films received additional media attention when film personality Chris Gore met actor
Charlie Sheen and gave him a copy. Sheen then watched Flowers of Flesh and Blood and,
mistaking it for a genuine snuff film, contacted the FBI to report it. FBI agent Dan Codling
informed them that the FBI and the Japanese authorities were already investigating the
filmmakers, who were repeatedly interviewed by the Japanese police and eventually summoned
to court to prove that the special effects were indeed fake.

Bruce Seldon vs. Mike Tyson, billed as "The Championship: Part II" was a
professional boxing match contested on September 7, 1996 for the WBA
Heavyweight championship.Tyson would easily defeat Seldon by 1st round
knockout in one of the shortest Heavyweight championship fights in boxing
history, lasting just 1:49 .Almost immediately after the fight, the audience
began chanting "Fix!", having thought Seldon took a dive in order for Tyson
to win the championship and move on to face Evander Holyfield. The crowd
would continue to serenade Seldon with chants of "Fix!" as he remained in
the ring for an interview with Jim Gray. Gray would openly ask Seldon if he
did in fact take a dive, but Seldon professed his innocence, stating "I didn't
train 12 weeks to come in here and take a dive."However , following the bout
a more famous turn of events transpired .

X originated with the 1932 MGM movie, Rasputin and the

Empress, which insinuated that the character Princess Natasha
had been raped by Rasputin. Princess Natasha's character was
supposedly intended to represent Princess Irina of Russia, and
the real Princess Irina sued MGM for libel. After seeing the film
twice, the jury agreed that the princess had been
defamed.Princess Irina and her husband Felix Youssoupoff were
reportedly awarded $127,373 in damages by the English Court of
Appeal in 1934 and $1 million in an out-of-court settlement with
MGM.As a preventive measure against further lawsuits, the film
was taken out of distribution for decades.Prompted by the
outcome of this case many studios began to incorporate X in their
films in order to try to protect themselves from similar court action.

X was ___________'s most expensive epic film in his entire career and was
considered to be "one of the grandest and most expensive films of its times"
with an estimated budget of 4 million (valued at about US$840 000.84
between 1948 and 1966). The high cost of the film was attributed to the
transportation costs incurred to move chariots from ______ to Kurukshetra,
where the war sequences were filmed. Permission from the government
was sought, cavalry and infantry from the Indian Army were brought to the
locations at Kurukshetra and the first rows of the charging armies on horses

shot with troupes of the 61 Cavalry Regiment, using 80 elephants, 400
horses and three cameras. Other scenes were shot at palaces in Jaipur.

as a "mega savant", he had an exceptional memory,
but he also experienced social difficulties, possibly
resulting from a developmental disability related to
congenital brain abnormalities. He was the inspiration

In programming jargon, X conditions is a programming style where the

two parts of an expression are reversed in a conditional statement. The
name for this programming style is derived from X, who spoke English
with non-standard word order.
For Example Usually a conditional statement would be written as:
if ( $value == 52 ) { /* ... */ }
// Reads like :"If the value is equal to 52...“
X conditions describe the same expression, but backwards:
if ( 52 == $value ) { /* ... */ }
// Reads like: "If 52 equals the value“
