Andrew M. Cuomo has made about creating jobs in upstate New York, perhaps the most fanciful came in the state's decision to spend $15 million to build a high-tech film studio in Onondaga County.

The most fanciful setup might be "A United Nations in Space," in which hapless delegates have abandoned the flooded United Nations headquarters and struggle to choose a new location from a hotel orbiting our increasingly uninhabitable planet.

The most fanciful argument is that, after Trump is routed and Hillary's administration implodes, there will come a resurgent Republican Party (led and informed, of course, by the Never Trumpers), that will reclaim whatever's left of the USA in 2020.

Odds are available, so far, for some 70 names, including the most fanciful such as non-politicians like Katy Perry (an extreme outside bet at 500:1), Lady Gaga (also unlikely, at 150:1), Mark Zuckerberg (20163), George Clooney (50) and Oprah Winfry (25).

Taking a bite of the Jack in the Box jalapeño popper—or, for the eager, popping the whole thing into one's mouth—is an experience of textures, temperatures, and tastes that could rival even the most fanciful and outlandish molecular gastronomy creations from the top Michelin-rated restaurants.

In the wake of his prize-winning book, "Soldiers of Salamis" (2001) and "The Anatomy of a Moment" (2009), he returns to the Spanish civil war and its disputed aftermath in another "strange novel-without-fiction", as he calls it, a true story that even the most fanciful yarn-spinner would blush to invent.

A Star Is Born has a touch of the fairy tale to it, but it's Jackson Maine who is actually its most fanciful figure, at least in the intensely fragmented, pop and hip-hop–dominated reality of today's music industry — a rootsy, still youngish rocker so famous that he plays arenas and gets widely recognized in public.

194 and that he thought that most English words are traceable to Gaelic,Anatoly Liberman (2009), 'THE ETYMOLOGY OF 'BRAIN' AND COGNATES', Nordic Journal of English Studies, p. 46 which is certainly not true. Liberman also described MacKay's 1877 dictionary as "full of the most fanciful conjectures", noting that MacKay "was hauled over the coals by his contemporaries and never taken seriously".

The Illustrated Times wrote: Critic Clement Scott Clement Scott, writing in the Daily Telegraph, had a mostly favourable reaction: The Observer commented, "...we have authors and musicians quite as talented as [the French].... The subject of Thespis is unquestionably funny.... Mr. Arthur Sullivan has entered with heart into the spirit of Mr. Gilbert's fun, he has brightened it up with the most fanciful and delightful music".

Following the capture of Antioch, Corbaran returns home with the Christian chétifs ("captives"). Corbaran is accused of treason by the sultan for losing the battle, and one of the Christian prisoners must fight a duel in his place. The chétifs then attack and kill the dragon Sathanas, in perhaps the most fanciful episode of the cycle. In a third episode, Arpin of Bourges saves Corbaran's son from various misadventures, and the chétifs are set free to join the rest of the crusaders on the way to Jerusalem.

As the kingdom matured, it benefited from advanced techniques adopted from neighboring peoples as well as New World crops introduced from the Americas, such as maize, tobacco, cassava and beans. It developed a refined political system, elected political offices, legal system, trial by jury, public goods provisions and socially supporting movements. Kuba became very wealthy, which resulted in great artistic works commissioned by the Kuba nobility. The Kuba kings retained the most fanciful works for court ceremony and were also buried with these artifacts.

There are a number of theories on the origin of the name "Narrabeen". The most fanciful is that Narrabeen is named after "narrow beans" which the English in the first year of settlement (1788) found and ate from a vine growing over beach sand. Surgeon White indeed recorded getting ill from such beans but this was well north of Narrabeen, near Broken Bay. The name Narrobine Creek appears in 1801 in records relating to two escaped convicts, and thus the name appears to have been in use before then.

Apart from increased fines, Hood has also suggested pragmatic drug testing devices at hotels and nightclubs. Hood recommended and successfully passed laws to adopt this stance by setting minimum, as opposed to maximum sentences, which are never implemented by judges. Hood has rejected even the prescription of marijuana for medicinal purposes, backed by Vickie Chapman, saying the harm outweighs the therapeutic benefits. Perhaps the most fanciful recommendation is the introduction of an online database to record the details of the acquisition and sales of products containing pseudoephedrine, which using data mining technologies could help identify suspicious buyers, in a move which Commissioner of SAPOL, Mal Hyde, agreed with.

The central bay and loggia of the south entrance The north façade has three bays separated by windows and features a loggia, typical of early 17th-century houses, with a central arched entrance to accommodate coaches. The central bay is crowned by an ornamental pierced parapet below a niched Dutch gable, which shelters a small statue of Lord Zouche or James I. There are small obelisks at either side of the gable. Thorpe originally intended the main entrance of the house to be on this side, building on the gatehouse of the earlier Foxley house. The southern façade was described by Nikolaus Pevsner as "among the most fanciful pieces of Jacobean design in [England]".

Both Vidor and Gilbert were skeptical but, once again, Gish convinced them to do it her way.” And “Oh Dear” remark was told to her chauffeur. Gish benefited from the distinctive soft-focus lighting technique developed expressly for her by Orphans of the Storm cinematographer Hendrik Sartov, and termed the “Lillian Gish.” (M-G-M's Mae Murray, a top ranking star, employed the talented cinematographer Oliver Marsh to handle her closeups with use of the “baby spot”, lighting that erased signs of aging.)Lanazuri, 2011 Koszarski, 1983 p. 163: “Murray’s face is one of the most fanciful icons of the silent screen.” Baxter, 1970 p. 55: “...the brilliant Oliver Marsh…” Gilbert's appearance was not enhanced by these “glamorized, heavily gauzed” effects and his performance suffered for it.

He thought that the image in which Ramón and Alonso drown in the sea and are dragged to Hell by demons was "truly medieval" and represented the "most fanciful image" in the entire series. He also opined that Hergé's depiction of South American militaries was "full of humour" and that the detail was "generally very accurate". Biographer Benoît Peeters thought that The Broken Ear was a return to "pure adventure" from the "quasi-documentary realism" of The Blue Lotus, and that in this Adventure, politics remains "in the second line", and that instead Hergé let "the narrative rip and succeeds marvellously." Elsewhere, he praised the work as having a "formidable dynamism" and an "unequaled vitality", containing a "revolution" in narrative structure.

She finally settled in the forests of Mount Ashigara to raise her son. Alternatively, Kintarō's real mother left the child in the wilds or died and left him an orphan, and he was raised by a yama-uba or "mountain witch" (one tale says Kintarō's mother raised him in the wilds, but due to her haggard appearance, she came to be called yama-uba). In the most fanciful version of the tale, the yama-uba was Kintarō's mother, impregnated by a clap of thunder sent from a red dragon of Mount Ashigara. The legends agree that even as a toddler, Kintarō was active and indefatigable, plump and ruddy, wearing only a bib with the kanji for "gold" (金) on it.

Certification leads to increased revenues by opening up additional markets to Jews who keep kosher, Muslims who keep halal, Seventh-day Adventists, vegetarians, and the lactose intolerant who wish to avoid dairy products (products that are reliably certified as pareve meet this criterion). According to the Orthodox Union, one of the largest kashrut organization in the United States, "when positioned next to a competing non-kosher brand, a kosher product will do better by 20%." Quebec's Bouchard-Taylor Commission on Reasonable Accommodation refuted what it described as "[t]he most fanciful information is circulating among Quebeckers” about the so-called kosher tax in its 2008 report and stated that there was no evidence of price inflation as a result of kosher certification and that rabbis made little money from granting certification. According to Berel Wein, "The cost of kashrut certification is always viewed as an advertising expense and not as a manufacturing expense.
