The Matrix
In the scene where Agent Smith is interrogating Neo, after Smith has sealed Neo's mouth shut and he is backed into the corner, when the camera cuts back to Smith you can clearly see a reflection in his glasses of Neo still sitting down in the chair.
OK, you got the accent on the first E right, so we know you're not completely ignorant and your software can produce accents. So then why did you forget the other two accents???

There's a select number of places on earth where you really, really don't want to make a mistake. High on the list, in every sense, are the planet's tallest mountains: the 14 peaks in the world that are more than 8,000 meters (26,247 feet).
Widely acknowledged as one of the world's greatest mountaineers, Ed Viesturs is one of fewer than 20 people and the only American to have climbed all of those peaks—and one of only five to have climbed them without supplemental oxygen. Nonclimbers probably know him best as the star of the 1996 IMAX movie about Mount Everest, which he has climbed seven times. I sought Viesturs out because I was curious about the kind of attitude you develop toward error when a single mistake can easily cost you your life.
Ed Viesturs: "A mistake is a mistake even if you get away with it. Even though we succeeded, I don't ever want to do that again. I felt on the way down that the conditions were pretty desperate. We could've gone down in an avalanche at any minute. We just got really, really lucky. There were moments I was convinced we weren't going to make it down, when I said [to myself], "Ed, you've made the last and most stupid mistake of your life."
"I think a lot of people, when they survive a situation like that, they're willing to do it again. They're like, "Well, you know I got away with it one time, I can probably get away with it again." You do that too many times and sooner or later, it's not going to work out."
"I don't really look back and say, "Oh my God, that thing I did was really idiotic, how could I have done that?" I think I always wanted to be careful. I didn't want to die in the mountains. I do think, though, that as I climbed more, I became more conservative, just because of all the things I'd learned. When you're less experienced, you don't even know about the mistakes you're making."
Schulz: Are there certain predictable mistakes that less experienced climbers tend to make?
Viesturs: There's what I call groupthink, what some people call summit fever. You know, there's five or six people and they're climbing along and the weather starts to get funky and the majority of the group wants to go on, and the person with the least experience is like, "Weeellll, they're going on, it's probably OK." It's almost a lemming-type effect. People get swept up in it, it's that psychological feeling of safety. But I think we see that a lot in everyday life, too, where there's a group of people doing something and you go, "Well, they're doing it, it's probably OK."
". . . Climbing a mountain has to be a round trip. So many people get to the summit but never make it back down."
I accidentally fired off my camera while taking it out of its bag yesterday. This is the shot. After a wee bit of processing, it came out semi-interesting.

francesca è umana. commette errori. francesca non è sempre la persona coerente. non è sempre la ragazza che accetta e manda giù cose che non vorrebbe. francesca a volte si ribella. francesca a volte si stanca, la sua pazienza non è infinita. a volte francesca sbaglia, a volte francesca fa errori imperdonabili. ma a volte invece decide solo di AGIRE. e non aspettare.
One little mistake and the whole pattern has changed forever. I didn't noticed when or where I made a wrong tie. Just like life, one little mistake will change your path through life forever, and you may never get to know why...

In the context of newspapers mistakes, I remembered this photo published in Gomhoria newspaper about one year ago.
Comment reads: one of king Farouk's friends in a hunting excursion!
It is not only the lack of knowledge that caused the false label, but also the lack of manners that made the author imply that the wife of king Farouk is his mistress!

I went to take a photo of this sunset the other night, not realizing the camera was set on monochrome.
I decided I like it though, especially the bird flying by.
I have to admit, this one was tough. While I look at my life and think, to this point, I don't have any regrets, I do look back and realize I've had some pretty good screw ups. I think my biggest mistake was not speaking up when I should have. There are a few instances in particular that I can think of, but in general, not speaking up for what I believed in - what I believed to be RIGHT - what I believed to be TRUE. At this point in my life, I've learned that it doesn't matter what others think - I will stand up for what I believe in - and I will SPEAK truth, no matter what anyone says or thinks.
You can never make the same mistake twice. The second time you make it, it is no longer a mistake, it is a choice.
Just discernible in the afternoon glare. In keeping with its reputation, City Rail is unable to spell Macquarie Park here, although it gets it right at Macquarie Park station..
"Mistakes" are unintentional exposures with some simple, arbitrary image processing applied, such as "I'm Feeling Lucky" in Picasa. The results are sometimes nice to look at in their own way.
The name Te Onepoto / Taylors Mistake is one of New Zealand's dual placenames. The Māori portion, Te Onepoto, means short or little beach. For the English portion, the Lyttelton Times in 1865 said it was "originally called Vincent's Bay, and more recently Taylors Mistake, owing to the master of a vessel running in here during the night-time, thinking he was about to pass over the Sumner Bar."
