Congratulations Bruce. It's a strangely bunched distribution given only 3 questions were answered correctly by everyone.

Digest for rec.games.trivia@googlegroups.com - 2 updates in 2 topics

msb@vex.net (Mark Brader): Oct 29 02:13AM -0500

These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2018-07-16,
and should be interpreted accordingly.
 
On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.
Please post all your answers to the newsgroup in a single followup,
based only on your own knowledge. (In your answer posting, quote
the questions and place your answer below each one.) I will reveal
the correct answers in about 4 days.
 
All questions were written by members of What She Said and are
used here by permission, but have been reformatted and may have
been retyped and/or edited by me. For further information see
my 2018-07-16 companion posting on "Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (QFTCI*)".
 
 
* Game 8, Round 4 - Science - Collective Nouns
 
The English language has many very interesting collective nouns
for creatures -- mammals, birds, fish, and insects. In this round,
you'll be given two or more collective nouns that apply to the same
type of creature, and you must name the type of creature that they
all apply to.
 
1. Shrewdness, troop.
2. Colony, cloud.
3. Unkindness, conspiracy.
4. Parliament, stare.
5. Team, passel, drift, parcel.
6. Kaleidoscope, flutter, rabble.
7. Bale, nest, turn, dole.
8. Labor, company, movement.
9. Bask, float, congregation.
 
10. Rookery, colony, huddle; also a raft, if they are in water,
or a waddle, if they are on land.
 
 
* Game 8, Round 5 - Audio - 1990s One-Hit Wonders
 
Yes, once again you're getting the audio round. (So even with a
canceled round in the last set, you can still be scored on your best
6 out of 8 rounds.) Plenty of musical artists in the 1990s hit it
big exactly once before fading back into obscurity. Instead of
playing a clip from their one big hit, I'll give you the title,
year, and three lines from the song; you'll also be told what type
of answer is wanted. In each case, name the singer or group.
 
(In the original game, questions #9-10 were "name the title or the
band", but I'm changing them to work the same way as the others.)
 
1. "Unbelievable" (1991): name the band.
 
The things, you say,
Your purple prose just gives you away,
The things, you say...
 
2. "Right Here, Right Now" (1991): name the band.
 
I was alive and I waited, waited,
I was alive and I waited for this,
Right here, right now...
 
3. "I Wish" (1995): name the rapper.
 
I wish I was little bit taller,
I wish I was a baller,
I wish I had a girl who looked good...
 
4. "Jump" (1992): name the duo.
 
Jump, jump,
The Mac Dad will make you jump, jump,
A Daddy Mac will make you jump, jump...
 
5. "Stay" (1992): name the duo.
 
Back in your own world,
Stay with me, stay with me,
Stay with me, stay with me...
 
6. "Closing Time" (1998): name the band.
 
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home...
 
7. "One Of Us" (1995): name the artist.
 
What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us,
Just a stranger on the bus...
 
8. "Bitch" (1997): name the artist.
 
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover,
I'm a child, I'm a mother,
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint...
 
9. "Flagpole Sitta" (1997); name the band.
 
I'm not sick but I'm not well,
And I'm so hot 'cause I'm in Hell,
I'm not sick but I'm not well...
 
10. "Lovefool" (1996); name the band.
 
Love me, love me,
Say that you love me,
Fool me, fool me...
 
 
* Game 8, Round 6 - Literature/Entertainment - Fictional Cities
 
Hey, they're real to us! In case, name the fictional place we
know from books, TV, or movies.
 
1. This pair of cities, which exist within the same comic-book
universe, have been described as "New York during the day"
and "New York at night" -- which also serves to explain the
characters who famously reside in them. Name *both*.
 
2. Stephen King sets many of his stories in two fictional towns
in Maine. One is the setting of "Cujo", "Stand By Me", and
"The Dead Zone" among others; the other is the setting of "It",
"Insomnia", and "11/22/63". Name *either* town.
 
3. This town in Middle-Earth, just outside the Shire, is known
for being home to both men and hobbits alike.
 
4. This town in Massachusetts appears in many of H.P. Lovecraft's
short horror stories.
 
5. Many of Terry Pratchett's "Discworld" novels are set in this,
the largest and most diverse city on the Disc.
 
6. Harry Potter and his friends required permission from a parent
or guardian to visit this small town located near their school.
 
7. Garrison Keillor set most of his stories in this Minnesota town.
 
8. Stephen Leacock modeled the setting for many of his stories
after Orillia, Ontario, but named it this instead.
 
9. Fans have calculated that the murder rate of this seaside town
in Maine, the setting for the TV show "Murder, She Wrote",
is higher than that of wartime El Salvador or Honduras.
 
10. This spaceport on Tatooine is described as "a wretched hive
of scum and villainy".

> * Game 8, Round 2 - Canadiana Geography - Toronto Parks
 
> There are literally thousands of parks in Toronto, ranging from
> Abbotsford Park in Willowdale to Zooview Park in Scarborough.
 
To be exact, as of the last time I checked,
http://www.toronto.ca/data/parks/prd/facilities/parks/index.html
has 1,427 entries, of which 983 are named using the word Park and
289 using Parkette.
 
> We'll give you an address and a description; in each case, you
> just have to name the park.
 
This was the easiest round in the original game.
 
> 1. This park, at 1873 Bloor St. W., one of the largest in the city,
> is based on a bequest of land by John Howard, and features
> sporting facilities, an amphitheater, and a zoo.
 
High Park.
 
> this park features a playground, baseball diamonds, a soccer
> pitch, and a swimming pool; and it was the site of a famous
> riot in the 1930s.
 
Christie Pits.
 
> 3. This recently refurbished park at 35 Wellington St. E. features
> a huge mural and a spectacular dog fountain, and is named after
> John Graves Simcoe's surveyor.
 
Berczy Park.
 
The dog fountain:

The background's a bit different if you look at it the other way:
http://mcfcrandall.files.wordpress.com/2017/06/blog_dog_fountain_berczy_park.jpg
 
> park at 1 Leslie St. is officially named after a former Toronto
> Parks Commissioner, who had almost the same name as a famous
> Canadian painter. What is the park's official name?
 
Tommy Thompson Park. (Accepting "Tom Thomson", the painter's name.)
 
> Pukka Orchestra song that Toronto police tried to have banned.
> Originally named Clarke Beach Park after a city alderman, it
> was officially renamed in 2003 to this, its commonly used name.
 
Cherry Beach.
 
> gay-rights activist, who died in 2005, and was cited in his

> Name him, or the park.
 
George Hislop Park.
 
> that ran from St. Clair and Bathurst, through the University
> of Toronto, and eventually into Lake Ontario. The stream has
> also lent its name to a Toronto literary journal. Name the park.
 
Taddle Creek Park.
 
> 8. This park at 600 Dundas St. E. gives its name to its entire
> neighborhood, currently undergoing a revitalization.
 
Regent Park.
 
> park at 755 Lawrence Av. E. was purchased by the city in 1955.
> The Toronto Botanical Garden relocated to the site shortly after.
> What is the park's official name?
 
Edwards Gardens.
 
> the neighborhood, which is slowly gentrifying. It features
> a baseball diamond, several tennis courts, an arena, and the
> John Innes Community Centre.
 
Moss Park.
 
And so we have another round that never happened. Nobody even made
any guesses on this one!

(E)states-General (États-Généraux). 4 for Dan Blum, Joshua,
and Dan Tilque.
 
> the Estates-General and with their own lack of power, declared

Tennis-Court Oath (Serment du Jeu de Paume). 4 for Joshua.
 
> 4. Two members of the <answer 2> enumerated a list of civil rights,
> which remain in force as part of France's constitution today.
> What was this document called?
 
Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen (Déclaration
des Droits de l'Homme et du Citoyen). The "citizen" part was not
required. 4 for Joshua (the hard way).
 
> count of Mirabeau; by Thomas Jefferson; and by which third man,
> a French aristocrat who had served in the American forces during

Gilbert du Motier, Marquis of Lafayette. "Lafayette" was sufficient.
4 for Dan Blum, Joshua, Dan Tilque, and Pete.

Jacobins. 4 for Dan Blum.
 
> 7. Brumaire, pluviôse, germinal, and thermidor are all examples
> of what?
 
Months in the French revolutionary (or republican) calendar.
4 for Dan Blum, Joshua, and Dan Tilque.
 
Late in 1793 the National Convention decreed that the year was
now 2, years 1 and 2 having started on September 22 of 1792 and
1793 respectively. The accompanying transition to metric time with
the day divided into 10 hours (or 1,000 minutes or 100,000 seconds)
was less popular and never really took hold, and the new 10-day week
(with 9 working days, of course) wasn't liked either. (Each month
was 3 weeks, and the whole year was 36 weeks and another 5 or 6
days not part of any week or month.) The Gregorian calendar was
readopted in 1806.
 
> 8. Georges Danton founded this committee, which executed him for

Committee of Public Safety (Comité de Salut Public). 4 for Dan Blum,
Joshua, and Dan Tilque.

Digest for rec.games.trivia@googlegroups.com - 7 updates in 4 topics

swp <stephen.w.perry@gmail.com>: Oct 27 01:41PM -0700

this is Rotating Quiz #311. Entries must be posted by Friday, November 2nd, 2018 at 9 PM (Toronto time). Thank You to Mark Brader for running RQ 310 with a theme that I could figure out.
 
Usual rules: no looking anything up, no discussion, etc. The winner gets to create the next RQ.
 
Please post your answers to all questions in a single followup in the newsgroup, quoting the questions and placing your answer below each one. Only one answer is allowed per question.
 
If the answer is a person's name then only the surname is required, but if any other part is given it must be correct or the answer will not count.
 
There is a theme but it does not affect scoring. Each correct answer is worth 2 points; I do not have any way in mind in which an answer can be almost correct, but if one presents itself such an answer will be worth 1 point.
 
In case of a tie, the first tiebreaker will be whoever scored the most points on the hardest questions (defined post-facto as the ones which the fewest people got any points on). Second tiebreaker will be posting order.
 
0. 2018 movie situated in lake tahoe starring jeff bridges and dakota johnson
 
1. tv series about a high school chemistry teacher diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer
 
2. 2018 tv series starring sarayu blue as emet
 
3. iconic 1966 spaghetti western starring clint eastwood and lee van cleef
 
4. 2016 movie about 3 overworked parents starring mila kunis, kathryn hahn, and kristen bell
 
5. 1995 movie starring will smith and martin lawrence as detectives
 
6. 1955 spencer tracy movie about a one-armed stranger coming to a tiny town possessing a terrible past they want to keep secret, by violent means if necessary
 
7. 2011 movie starring cameron diaz looking to get breast implants
 
8. 2007 cult classic starring jonah hill as seth and michael cera as evan
 
9. 2003 movie starring billy bob thornton and bernie mac
 
 
good luck!

I don't think there's any catalog of galaxies named after a person. The
most commonly referenced catalog is NGC = New General Catalog. What you
are probably thinking of is the Messier list (named after Charles
Messier), which has only 110 objects. That's too short to count as a
catalog, and only a minority (about 40) of the Messier objects are galaxies.

Eh?

No, I was thinking that a number of astronomical catalogs are named that
way, and they might include catalogs that include galaxies; *and* that
if nothing else there was Messier's.
 
After some searching I find the Zwicky catalog of galaxies, the Parkes
catalog of radio sources (some of which are galaxies), and the Shapley-Ames
catalog of galaxies (but that last one is two people). The Abell catalog
is a near miss, because it lists *clusters* of galaxies.
 
> which has only 110 objects. That's too short to count as a catalog,
 
*Huh?*
 
> and only a minority (about 40) of the Messier objects are galaxies.
 
True, but I did not say "catalog of galaxies".

we ordered the book and now it's part of the Museum library, available for scholars and enthusiasts!

Dear visual media archaeologists,

it is with great pleasure that I announce the publication of my book
"Images of Dutchness - Popular Visual Culture, Early Cinema and the Emergence of a National Cliché, 1800-1914" with Amsterdam University Press (39,90 Euro)

In this book, I investigate various visual media of the 19thand 20th centuries (and some of the 18th) to trace the origins of national cliché images about the Netherlands and the Dutch: when and how did the idea come up that the Dutch wear laced caps and wooden shoes -  and when and how was this image understood to mean "Dutch"?
The book contains over 100 illustrations (many in colour) to give evidence for the argument, many from items in private collections. It is written in English.

If you are near Amsterdam, you are also invited to join the official book launch on
Saturday, 27 October 2018
17:00-18:00
at Eye Filmmuseum, Amsterdam (NL)
Waterfront Room
followed by reception

The presentation is part of Eye's programme on the Unesco Day for audiovisual cultural heritage. Therefore, most parts of the book launch will be held in Dutch, but the Q&A will be bi-lingual.
If you wish to attend, please reserve via the link in the attachment or via l.dove@aup.nl

the book just comes from the printing press and can now be ordered via your local bookstore or directly via Amsterdam University Press.

For more information, please see the invitation in the attachment or e-mail me.

Best wishes,
Sarah Dellmann
