star wars - Expecting visitor Luke Skywalker on Dagobah, Yoda was?

Straight to the point.

Was Yoda expecting Luke on Dagobah? Did Ben (Obi-Wan) Kenobi work with Yoda to get Luke to Dagobah? Or did Ben simply assume that Luke would show up and Yoda would know how to take it from there?

Longer explanation with my bad attempt at Yoda-speak below.

Pay attention you will! Something noticed in The Empire Strikes Back I have! Say to Luke Skywalker on Hoth did Ben:

You will go to the Dagobah system. […] There you will learn from Yoda, the Jedi Master who instructed me.

Show up on Dagobah Luke does. Bumped into Luke during nice quiet walk Yoda has… But expecting Luke on Dagobah Yoda was? Unexpected maybe he is? How involved in getting Luke to Dagobah Yoda was? Ahead of time Yoda knew?

Luke Expected: Tell Yoda Luke was coming, did Ben? To get Luke, a big plan Yoda and Ben did make? Who Yoda is, a true surprise to Luke it was? For Luke, special rootleaf I cook?

Luke Unexpected: Tell Luke about Yoda, Ben did, but tell Yoda he did not; show up unexpectedly Luke did? Assume Yoda knew what to do, did Ben? A big surprise to Yoda, this was?

Something Else: ???

Answer

According to the factbook "Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know", Yoda spent his time on Dagobah meditating, communing with Force Spirits, using Force Visions to watch over the remaining Jedi (including young Luke) and specifically he was...

Prepar[ing] to train an apprentice who may be a new hope for the doomed galaxy

So yes. Expecting a visitor, he was.

futurama - How much time is lost in 'Time Keeps on Slippin''

In time Keeps on Slippin' , Farnsworth creates a basketball team which he matures by abusing Chronitons. This leads to time skipping forward by random, but ever increasing amounts. How much time was skipped in this way? Answer Unfortunately, I don't think a good estimate can be made for this, for two reasons: Many of the time skips move forward by an indeterminate amount of time. At one point, the Professor mentions localized regions of space skipping forward much more than others. We then see two young boys on the street below complaining about having to pay social security, only to suddenly become senior citizens and start complaining about wanting their money. Thus, each individual could have experienced a different amount of time skippage.

harry potter - How could Expelliarmus beat Avada Kedavra?

I want to be very careful about how I ask this question – I am not asking How did Voldemort die? [CLOSED] Below the text is the relevant passages from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows if anyone wants to review them (I'm sorry for the amount of text). How did Expelliarmus beat Avada Kedavra and kill Voldemort? I feel the reason Harry's Expelliarmus overpowered Voldemort's Avada Kedavra curse has to do with who was master of the Elder Wand and how the Elder Wand works. I've always had trouble understanding fully how the Elder Wand works, though. How much did the fact that Voldemort never truly won or mastered the Elder Wand factor into how Expelliarmus reacted to Avada Kedavra and caused Avada Kedavra to rebound and kill Voldemort? An answer based in book canon would be especially welcome, but any canon source really is fine. Harry heard the high voice shriek as he, too, yelled his best hope to the heavens, pointing Draco’s wand: ‘ Avada Kedavra !’ ‘ Expelliarmus !...

tolkiens legendarium - Difference between elves and dwarves blacksmithing in the Lord of the Rings

Both the elves and the dwarves were famous for their metal work in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but what is the difference between what they made, and which one had the better skill of making amours and swords? Answer James Christopher's answer sums up the second part of your question well, but as to the difference in what they made, a little more detail is needed. Once the Elves learned to forge with steel, the shape of the sword changed, now being able to take on the form of a great broadsword or a light and agile curved sword. Additionally, they took great pride in decorating their swords. As we see in the Lord of the Rings , some swords like Sting had magical properties such as glowing blue when orcs are near. As far as the use of Mithril, lotr.wikia has two contradictory passages: Thus, Elven blades became renowned as great weapons, capable of performing deeds beyond the skill of their handlers and were even more glorious when the use of Mithril was allowed to the Elves. ...
