Unlock Reality
A manuscript which explains the Construction of the Universe in simple terms that anyone can understand. Some claim it is an urban myth while others claim to have read it.
Example:
There follow some points about it:
Point One:
Unlock Reality is a book in manuscript form that is just over 100 pages long.
Point Two:
It does not have an author listed though it is widely rumoured that five main people are involved with its production. Two are reported to be Monks of some sort, one a Metaphysics Professor working in a British University and two other gifted people with no specific qualifications.
Point Three:
Unlock Reality has been briefly descried as “one of the most unusual publications on the planet, with the potential to produce a shift in perception that could change the course of history and guarantee the survival of the human race
Point Four:
It is being prepared for world release by a group called I.S.D.T. and there is also a group trying to prevent it getting out who go by the name of The Brotherhood of the Eternal Light.
Point Five:
Those preparing it for world release have been affected strangely and been inspired to follow childhood dreams. This is sometimes referred to as the UR effect. These include going to the Himalayas, taking up skydiving, starting websites of which there are hundreds and writung poetry.
Point Six:
All those concerned with proof reading and the production have had to sign confidentiality contracts. In addition all copies request that readers do not quote or copy from it so no quotes have appeared anywhere.
Point Seven:
50 copies were released via Bookcrossing.
Point Eight:
Many people are involved in an international treasure hunt for the 50 copies.
Point Nine:
There is a project to place copies permanently in key locations around the world, including the Grand Canyon, and Tower Bridge. There is meant to be a copy being held by Tibetan Monks for safekeeping and the Dalai Lama was recently presented with a copy as was the Archbishop of Canterbury.
Point Ten:
There is quite a storm over whether or not Unlock Reality is real or not; ironic for something that has sparked much debate over the nature of reality.

Slide to unlock
A method to pass the lock screen and get into the operating system to use it. Users are required to slide their finger on a predefined position on the lock screen. Popularised by Apple's iPhone, and Apple has patented the whole vague idea, thus making it one of the most ridiculous patents yet.
There hardly could be a method to unlock the screen by doing a certain action on the screeen itself without violating that patent. For example, Apple also claimed that a tap on the screen is a 'zero-length sliding'. Microsoft introduced a picture password unlock screen to Windows 8, but that is also essentially a slide to unlock.
Google has improved and diversified the slide to unlock on Android in many ways, so that now they look so very different. Yet, Apple wants to ban Android products for this patent or wants the manufacturers to pay a ridiculously high patent fee for this.

Example:
A Japanese man: You know, we used to slide the door to open it and get into the room.
An Apple guy: Hey, that sounds like slide to unlock to me. You violated our patent! You'd better stop using that door.
A Japanese man: We had those since thousands years ago?
An Apple guy: Doesn't matter. We've got the patent. See you in the court.
