ekpyrotic universe

The ekpyrotic universe, or ekpyrotic scenario, is a cosmological model of the origin and shape of the universe. The ekpyrotic model of the universe is an alternative to the standard cosmic inflation model for the very early universe and is a precursor to, and part of, some cyclic models of the universe.
The ekpyrotic model came out of work by Neil Turok and Paul Steinhardt and maintains that the universe did not start in a singularity, but came about from the collision of two branes. This collision avoids the primordial singularity and superluminal expansion of spacetime while preserving nearly scale-free density fluctuations and other features of the observed universe. The ekpyrotic model is cyclic, though collisions between branes are rare on the time scale of the expansion of the universe to a nearly featureless flat expanse. Observations that may distinguish between the ekpyrotic and inflationary models include polarization of the cosmic microwave background radiation and frequency distribution of the gravitational wave spectrum.

My friends are such nerds, they got into a huge drunk argument about whether the we existed in an ekpyrotic universe or an exponential expansion universe.

NBC Universal

A so-called 'merger' between NBC's parent company General Electric and Vivendi Universal, where GE obtains 80% of NBC Universal, and Vivendi 20%, with Vivendi eventually selling out.

That raw deal was much of an NBC Universal.

Haakvard University

The actual name for what was previously known as Harvard University. This name applies when a male Norwegian nordic skier attends the University.

"I go to Haakvard University."
"You mean Harvard?"
"Well, when that Norwegian first year arrived, the university switched its name."

University of Wisconsin

The University of Wisconsin is a large public university in the Wisconsin capital of Madison. It is one of the largest campuses in the USA, and is one of the best colleges in the world. It is one of the Public Ivies, that is, a public university that offers an education equivalent to those of the private Ivy League schools. It is consistently ranked in the top 35 among all US schools, and in the top 10 among all public schools. The majority of their undergraduate majors are ranked within the top 10 nationally, and the university is one of the top 20 research institutions in the world. The University of Wisconsin, also known as UW, is tied with Harvard for producing the highest number of CEO's, and has produced some of the largest amounts of doctors, lawyers, engineers, businessmen, and millionaires. What is unique about UW is that not only is it one of the top academic institutions in the world, but it is also one of the biggest party schools and is known for being one of the best campuses in America. Playboy magazine named UW the biggest party school in America, and ESPN named Madison the best college sports town. UW is associated with two gigantic drinking fests: Halloween's Freakfest and Mifflin Block Party. Both are two of the largest college drinking fests in the country, attracting thousands upon thousands of drunk students.

Joe: "I go to the University of Wisconsin in Madison."

Maria: "Wow, that is awesome. You must be insanely smart and party all the time."

Temple University

Temple University is the Harvard of Philadelphia. Not really, but the students could kick any Harvard boy's ass because Main Campus is in the ghetto. Don't bother going to the Center City campus unless you want to get mugged, Ambler Campus is a joke, and Tyler is the art school...with artsy people. Definitely the best university ever. Temple is better than Drexel, UPenn, and St. Joe's combined. Seriously.

I'll kick your ass, I'm from Temple!
