Mistaken identity is all a matter of timing. Spoilers for a movie about to turn 55.
MGM
Alfred Hitchcock's 1959 film North by Northwest is a classic caper full of incredible coincidences that all lead to Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint dangling off Mount Rushmore's giant George Washington face. The coincidences start at the very beginning. Roger Thornhill (Grant), a New York ad man, tells his assistant to call his mother to remind her they're going to the theater later. He remembers (a moment too late!) that his mother is at her friend's house, and her friend doesn't have a telephone. If it weren't for his mother's friend just having moved into a new apartment, nothing in this movie would have happened.

Taco Bell to release mobile ordering app.
Patrick T. Fallon/Bloomberg
Although mobile ordering has been a common place for pizza joints and online delivery services, such as Seamless and GrubHub, Taco Bell looks to try and revolutionize the fast-food industry. Many think mobile ordering could be the next drive-thru for restaurants like Taco Bell, McDonald's, and Burger King.
The app will allow Taco Bell customers to order ahead of time and pick it up at their local restaurant. The company has been testing the app for two and a half years in select Orange County stores and will release it to select consumers within the coming weeks. Company officials expect the app to be released nationwide later this year.
Taco Bell App
Customers will be able to either use Taco Bell gift cards, or their own credit card. To make sure their food is hot, the app will use GPS to notice the Taco Bell employees that the customer is near and to start making the order.
“Mobile is the biggest shift in QSR (Quick Service Restaurant) since the drive thru,” said Jeff Jenkins, mobile lead for Taco Bell, to NRN. “If you can get 10 million people to download your app, you're putting a portal to Taco Bell in 10 million pockets.”
It will be interesting to see how the general public reacts when the app goes nation wide. Other QSRs, including McDonald's, have been testing mobile ordering in recent months, but it looks like Taco Bell will be the first “major” chain to roll out the service nationwide.

Enjoy all of the chocolate, basically. As told by two Australian women .
One of those plans is a recipe for sad times, while the other is the happiest day ever. Here's what we can all learn from them…
-Don't stress about not having plans on Valentine's day. It's a pretty ridiculous day.
-Definitely don't make plans that rely on someone else to be fulfilled.
-Stay at home and make absolutely zero plans the day of.
-Celebrate the holiday in the best way possible and make plans for the following day at your local CVS.
-Bring an enormous bag, because you are going shopping! You'll need it to carry all of that awesome discounted candy.
-Cackle while eating, and know that you are the real winner this Valentine's Day.

A rose by any other name would sound totally effing stupid.
19. Meat curtains
Can't even type because I am too busy barfing up everything I have ever eaten. Let's just relegate any term that's remotely food-related (including but not limited to: taco, love taco, fish taco, SAUSAGE WALLET*) to the lowest of low rankings and never speak of it again.
*actual real phrase I saw on the internet.
18. Va-jay-jay
Too singsongy and childish to exist on this earth. This word is the equivalent of your one friend who always gets way too drunk at brunch and tries to touch the waiter's butt when he clears away your plates.
17. Vertical smile
HAHAHAH YOU HAVE CLEARLY NEVER SEEN A SMILE AND ALMOST CERTAINLY WILL NEVER SEE A VAGINA EITHER IF YOU EVER SAY THIS PHRASE ALOUD.
16. Poon
Ick.
15. Tang
Ick, just a tiny fraction less than the above.
14. Poontang
This term is somehow better than the sum of its parts. Still should never be uttered unironically, but has a certain panache.
13. Vag/Vadge/Vájjhe
A+ for efficiency, but you're a grown-up. Say the whole damn word.
12. Lady bits
This term was invented by daytime talk shows and women's magazines to sell tampons and yogurt. (MILLION-DOLLAR IDEA: Greek yogurt that comes with a little serving of fruit to mix in and also a little serving of Midol, because periods, amirite ladies?!? Ugh. I'm tired.)
11. Box
Relatively inoffensive, but like, a box is an actual defined thing that is not at all similar to a vagina. Doesn't come close to expressing all the beautiful complexity of the female form.
10. Beaver
Same goes for this one. A beaver is ALREADY A THING (a thing with buckteeth and a propensity for DIYing structures, unlike any vagina I have ever encountered [maybe yours is different, I don't know you, I don't know your life]). Don't be lazy — find names that don't already have homes.
9. Pussy
The actual word is, phonetically, fairly gross —that slithery double “s,” that coy “y” at the end, the fact that is quite literally contains the word “pus” — but it's widely used enough to merit a place solidly in the middle of this ranking, and can, in very specific circumstances, be sexy (in far more circumstances, it is just plain creepy). It should never, ever, EVER be deployed to imply that somebody is somehow weak or lacking, because stfu patriarchy.
8. Cooch (var. coochie)
Sort of cute; possibly too much so, if you consider the legion of parents who have lovingly “coochie-coochie-coo!”-ed at their babies throughout human history.
7. Snatch
The less-cute counterpart to “cooch.” Uncomfortably visual, like a bear trap quickly snapping shut, but at least that implies a certain amount of toughness. Very few vaginal euphemisms do justice to the fact that vaginas have CRAZY MUSCLES that can accommodate AN ENTIRE PERSON as they enter this gorgeous, unforgiving world.
6. Muff
I had an American Girl Doll when I was younger. Her name was Samantha, and according to her backstory she was from the Victorian era. One Christmas, my parents bought me a set of winter clothes for her, including what the American Girl catalog called a “muff.” It was small and furry and kept Samantha's cold plastic hands just a little bit warmer. I will always think of it fondly.
5. Twat
Really should have nothing to do with an actual human vagina, but would otherwise make a spectacularly satisfying insult. (Especially if you have a British accent.)
4. Cunt
Same as above. British accents make everything sound better.
3. Bearded clam
This is just such a funny image, like a wizened old cartoon character who lives next door to SpongeBob SquarePants. Full marks.
2. Hoo-ha
Has a certain twangy, old-timey charm. It's kind of crass, but in a delightful way, like a coarse yet kindly regular at a saloon in the Wild West. Try saying it aloud, right now, wherever you happen to be. See? Good.
1. Vagina
What it actually literally is (or, if you're referring to the outside, the vulva). It fucking rules. QED.

President Obama closed the State of the Union on Tuesday by honoring Cory Remsburg, who was injured in a roadside bomb attack in Afghanistan.
AP
President Obama ended his State of the Union address Tuesday by honoring Sgt. First Class Cory Remsburg, who he first met in 2009.
Remsburg was injured in a roadside bomb attack in Afghanistan during his tenth deployment. He has undergone “dozens or surgeries” and rehabilitation, and is blind in one eye and “struggles on his left side,” Obama said.
“Day by day, he’s learned to speak again and stand again and walk again – and he's working toward the day when he can serve his country again,” the president said. “My fellow Americans, men and women like Cory remind us that America has never come easy.”
President Obama, Vice President Biden, Speaker of the House John Boehner and members of Congress give Remsburg a standing ovation.

I first met Cory Remsburg, a proud Army Ranger, at Omaha Beach on the 65th anniversary of D-Day. Along with some of his fellow Rangers, he walked me through the program – a strong, impressive young man, with an easy manner, sharp as a tack. We joked around, and took pictures, and I told him to stay in touch.
A few months later, on his tenth deployment, Cory was nearly killed by a massive roadside bomb in Afghanistan. His comrades found him in a canal, face down, underwater, shrapnel in his brain.
For months, he lay in a coma. The next time I met him, in the hospital, he couldn’t speak; he could barely move. Over the years, he's endured dozens of surgeries and procedures, and hours of grueling rehab every day.
Even now, Cory is still blind in one eye. He still struggles on his left side. But slowly, steadily, with the support of caregivers like his dad Craig, and the community around him, Cory has grown stronger. Day by day, he's learned to speak again and stand again and walk again – and he's working toward the day when he can serve his country again.
“My recovery has not been easy,” he says. “Nothing in life that's worth anything is easy.”
Cory is here tonight. And like the Army he loves, like the America he serves, Sergeant First Class Cory Remsburg never gives up, and he does not quit.
My fellow Americans, men and women like Cory remind us that America has never come easy. Our freedom, our democracy, has never been easy. Sometimes we stumble; we make mistakes; we get frustrated or discouraged. But for more than two hundred years, we have put those things aside and placed our collective shoulder to the wheel of progress – to create and build and expand the possibilities of individual achievement; to free other nations from tyranny and fear; to promote justice, and fairness, and equality under the law, so that the words set to paper by our founders are made real for every citizen. The America we want for our kids – a rising America where honest work is plentiful and communities are strong; where prosperity is widely shared and opportunity for all lets us go as far as our dreams and toil will take us – none of it is easy. But if we work together; if we summon what is best in us, with our feet planted firmly in today but our eyes cast towards tomorrow – I know it's within our reach.
Believe it.
