Trivia Questions Game II

Got a stumper? Ask your trivia questions here and see if anyone can answer them. If you get a trivia question correct, then you ask the next one.  If a question goes unattended for more than a week, assume it is dead and start a new one.

I'll start...


Which NFL team has had such luminary assistant coaches as Al Davis, Bill Walsh, and Joe Gibbs on their payroll at one time or another?

Re: The Trivia Questions Game II

This animal has very unusual habits. It lives high up in trees of the canopy, sleeping and eating buds, leaves and young twigs. In fact this animal sleeps for 19 hours a day hanging up-side down on branches. It doesn't move around a lot because it can only move 6 feet a minute, so sometimes it has to stay in the same tree for years.

What animal is it?

Re: The Trivia Questions Game II

Interesting. Here's a synopsis of the movie:

Synopsis:  The feature begins as a family (Mike, the father played by the film’s director Hal P. Warren; Margaret, the mother; young daughter Debbie; and a pooch named Pepe) are lost and are looking for a lodge to spend the night. (This part of the movie is like unedited home movie footage of the countryside with virtually nothing to break the monotony.)  The family ends up at a house and meet the caretaker, Torgo, who’s basically a weirdo with fat-thighs and a slow, halting way of walking and talking, as well as his own goofy theme music.  Torgo then keeps going on and on about “The Master” and then, when Mike the Dad is trying to fix the car, Torgo goes on about how he wants to keep the wife as his own and makes a creepily inept pass at her.  Next, the family stands around and stares at a portrait of the Master and his pet hellhound, Rusty.  As they stand around forever looking at the picture, Pepe Le Pooch gets out of the house and is somehow killed.  The young daughter Debbie then sneaks out of the house too. (She’s trying to escape the movie, I presume, and I don’t blame her!)  Torgo, the Bell-HopThe husband Mike and wife Margaret go after their daughter and find her with Rusty, the Master’s very friendly hellhound.  Little Debbie then takes her parents outside to see the Master and his wives sleeping it off on some stone slabs, which are apparently located somewhere behind the house.  The family gets scared, so they go back inside the house while Torgo comes outside and tells the sleeping Master that the new woman will be Torgo’s wife because the Master already has so many.  Torgo then knocks Mike the husband out cold and ineptly ties him to a tree.  Finally, the Master and his wives wake up and discuss what to do with the family.  There’s a disagreement over the little girl, so the Master’s wives get into a catfight that lasts forever.  The Master then tells Torgo that he will die, but instead the Master does nothing but annoy Torgo before spreading out his cape and laughing maniacally.  Finally, the Master stops the catfight among his wives, ties one to a post and then burns off Torgo’s hand, who runs off, never to be seen in the movie again.  The Master finally goes into the house to get the family and the whole thing ends with a lame twist as a new group of people drives up to the house.

I'd already said Jazz singer :) and the varying answers are probably what i was talking about in my previous post. Many movies had sound before they really did, because they used to bring in PA systems into the theatre and play it concurrently. Then there were varying technologies of placing sound on film - with varying success. What was your answer? I'm having one more guess - Wings?

Re: The Trivia Questions Game II

It was 'Mary Queen of Scotts'.  Someone else should go, I picked something harder then I thought! -- In the film the actress apparently is beheaded... the audience of the time was very amazed that an actress would 'give her all' for the film.  Now a days we can clearly see it was a 'cut away' shot where the actress walks up and places her head in the gillatine, then the film is stopped and a dummy is placed there while the actress goes out of frame, the film is restarted, the gillatine beheads the dummy.  There might be an older example where an actress/actor apparently 'dies' on screen, but that's the oldest I know of.

It's the only time for a hundred years (before or after) that the time in the UK will read as 01:02:03 04.05.06. In the US and Canada of course this happens on 5th April due to the way the date is shown there (day and month are inverted).

If two objects suddenly double in size and double the distance between them, would there be any "real" difference, even knowing that the formula for gravity is Gm1m2/d2?  Hint: consider the various formulas for surface area and volume of a three-dimensional object.

The graviation potential, and the force applied by each object on the other would be the same.

Should one object be orbiting the other, the orbit time would double.

So thats a difference.

Re: The Trivia Questions Game II

That's true -- I was thinking more along the lines of the weight/cross-sectional area changing -- so the difference would be noticed.

If we consider the Earth/Moon, though, after the doubling of mass/distance, if the moon increased its speed by a factor of four, since the gravity would be the same, I don't think the tides on the Earth would change.

Anyway, your turn to post.

Re: The Trivia Questions Game II

There's a meter in music, but it refers to how many notes can be in a measure and which note is considered to be a single beat of time.  kantiandream is asking about "ostinato" which comes from the Italian for obstinant -- it just keeps obstinantly popping back up throughout the song.

Here's an unsolved question -- why is 3/4 considered appropriate for some music while 6/8 is considered appropriate for other music when, by doubling the note value and using ties to extend a note across measures, I can write any 6/8 metered piece in 3/4 time?  It's just crazy, in my opinion.

Ok, trivia question: Which branch of science allows people to model particle aggregation (such as how crystals grow in ice and metallic alloys)?

Re: The Trivia Questions Game II

Golden Flea was pretty correct.  If there are no white skinned animals around, you let it soak for a few days in a bucket of strong urine (so that there's more ammonia in it).  The strong alkali element of urine is (amongst being essentially bleach) so beneficial to the tanning process that the ancient Romans actually put a special urine tax on tanners.

You ever heard someone say, "Your money stinks!"  Well, a Roman Emperor's son said this to his father in regards to that tax on what the tanners were using and the Emperor pulled out a coin, waved it under his son's nose and responded with, "Pecunia non olet!" (Money does not stink!)

Go for it, Flea.

I have to take issue with this information.  There was only one movie that did better than "The Return of the King" and in worldwide box office sales, it earned roughly 50% more than RotK.

Re: The Trivia Questions Game II

Are we using the myth that money is always "worth" the same amount or are we translating the amount gained from previous tickets into what today's dollar is worth?  For instance, as far as tickets sold goes, I don't think any movie yet has bested "Gone With The Wind".  But it came out during the Depression so tickets were rather cheap.  Still, that it managed to sell that amazing amount of tickets during the Great Depression, the Dustbowl years, is amazing.

I've heard it said that rising movie ticket prices (whose rate of increase has been accelerating compared to inflation) is in part due to demand that new movies make a new "all time best" sales record.

Well, not straying to far from the topic of money... *Don't Google search this if you can at all help it ('cause you'll find the answer real easy that way)*

What was the last year they made REAL quarters? As in, real silver quarters, not the cheap stuff we have today?

*I collect old coins, and I have a quarter from that year, as well as an older one, both pure silver. I also have a silver dime from the '50s and 2 silver dollars from 1923. Just thought that might be of interest to someone. :D

I think it was the year my mother was born, 1964.  It might be 65, but I'm pretty sure it was 64.

Dad made my mother a set of silver quarter earrings, with her birthyear on them.  So it was at least 64, if not later.

Re: The Trivia Questions Game II

I found this website: http://www.scotsman.com/lifest...he-unicorn-1-2564399

It gives quite an interesting explanation of the significance of the unicorn - though it doesn't explain who chose it as the national animal.


quote:
A fictitious creature may seem an odd choice for a country’s national animal, but perhaps not for a country famed for its love for and long history of myth and legend, and the unicorn has been a Scottish heraldic symbol since the 12th century, when it was used on an early form of the Scottish coat of arms by William I.

Unicorns were worshipped by the ancient Babylonians, and written descriptions of them appear in texts from the ancient Persians, the Romans, the Greeks and ancient Jewish scholars, all describing a horse-like creature whose single horn had magical properties and could heal disease.

In Celtic mythology, the Unicorn of Scotland symbolized innocence and purity, healing powers, joy and even life itself, and was also seen as a symbol of masculinity and power.

During the reign of King James III (1466 - 1488), gold coins were introduced that featured a Unicorn, and at the time of King James VI of Scotland’s succeeding of Elizabeth I of England, and the resulting effective union of the two countries, the Scottish Royal Arms featured two unicorns as shield supporters. In a gesture of unity, King James replaced the one on the left with the English lion.

The symbolism was potent, for the lion and the unicorn had long been painted as enemies, vying for the crown of king of beasts, with the unicorn ruling through harmony and the lion by might.

Today, the Royal Coat of Arms of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland still has the English lion on the left and the Scottish unicorn on the right, and the Royal Coat of Arms for use in Scotland has them the other way round.

The heraldic unicorn is pictured as being chained, because according to folklore a free unicorn was a dangerous beast.
