  • Super ACRONYM - Round 1
    Super ACRONYM - Round 1 1. Description acceptable. This character grabs a woman and tells her, "Americans, you're ​ all the same, always overdressing for the wrong occasions," then unveils an ominous apparatus that turns out to be a coat hanger. Ronald Lacey plays this character, who sustains an injury at a tavern called the Raven that prompts him to arrange (*) an ​ excavation near Cairo to locate the Well of Souls. That injury is later seen in close-up when this character gives a Heil Hitler, showing one side of the headpiece of the Staff of Ra seared onto his palm. For 10 points, name this villain who dies in an absolutely amazing way in Raiders of the ​ Lost Ark. ​ ANSWER: The Nazi whose face is melted off (or Major Arnold Ernst Toht; accept any answer ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ indicating the Nazi whose face is melted by the Ark of the Covenant; accept answers indicating ​ ​ ​ ​ the Nazi who wears glasses or similar; prompt on answers like "that one Nazi (from Raiders)") ​ ​ <Vopava> 2. In 1920, baseball owners briefly considered imposing an automatic balk as a penalty for ​ taking this action. Chris Rose and Kevin Millar host an MLB Network talk show whose name parodies this action. In 2006, Todd Williams badly botched one of these actions against Miguel Cabrera. In a 1998 game, Buck Showalter had (*) Gregg Olson of the ​ Diamondbacks do this with the bases loaded against Barry Bonds, who accumulated 120 of these actions in 2004. Beginning in 2017 at the Major League level, no actual throws were necessary to issue, for 10 points, what baseball action that deliberately lets a man on base? ANSWER: intentional walk (or intentional base on balls; prompt on "walk" or "base on balls" ​ ​ ​ ​ without the word "intentional") <Nelson> 3.

    New On Video & DVD Aqua Teen Hunger Force Volume 5 Fast-food friends Frylock, Meatwad and Master Shake continue their quirky adventures as they hang out in their home state of New Jersey and stumble into all kinds of trouble in these episodes from the popular Cartoon Network series. Shake sells out to Boost Mobile phone company, Meatwad works at a car wash, things go awry when Frylock creates a dog named Handbanana, and Shakes's new nuclear-driven grill is a lot more powerful than expected. Part of the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim series, which targets 18- to 34-year-olds, Aqua Teen Hunger Force is strikingly original entertainment. This fifth volume of episodes from the show contains two-and-a-half hours of fun with the gang. Disc 1 includes the following episodes: "Dirtfoot," "Boost Mobile," "Dickesode," "Uncensored: Dickesode," "Hand Banana," "Party All the Time," "Bart Oats," "Global Grilling," "Grim Reaper Gutters" and "Moonajuana." Additional Actors: Nick Ingkatanuwat, Ned Hastings, Schooly-D, Killer Mike, Andy Merrill, Mike Schatz, Tommy Blacha, Brendon Small, Andrew W.K., Tera Patrick, Jay Edwards. Disc 2 includes the following episodes: "Ezekiel," "Antenna," "Carl Wash," "Star Studded X-Mas Special (Part 1)," and "Star Studded X-Mas Special (Part 2)." Additional Actors: Will Forte, Mike Judge, George Lowe, Patton Oswalt, Jim Fortier. Warner Walker Texas Ranger 4th Season Texas Ranger Cordell Walker (Chuck Norris) serves up his own brand of Southern-style justice -- a dizzying blend of razor-sharp martial arts maneuvers and Old West crime-solving techniques -- in the fourth season of this long-running CBS series.

  • Aqua Teen Hunger Force: Colon Movie Film for Theaters by Kai Van Dusen, Staff Writer
    ~ ________ Issue ~ http://www.elsegundousd.com/eshs/bayeagle0607/AprilP30AquaTeenH... Aqua Teen Hunger Force: Colon Movie Film for Theaters By Kai Van Dusen, Staff Writer Matt Maiellaro and Dave Willis, writers of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, the show aired on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim, have made an Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie, titled Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters. This should be loosely termed a movie, because it just seems like an eighty-six minute episode of the show. Being a long episode of the show is not a bad thing. The movie is about the main characters Frylock, Master Shake and Meatwad, who gain a legendary piece of exercise equipment dubbed the INSANOFLEX which s said to have powers beyond any other mortal exercise machine but they are missing a key piece that is needed in activating it. They embark on a journey to the South Jersey Shore to find the missing piece and on the way run into many characters from the show such as the Moonanites, Walter Melon, Dr. Weird, Time Lincoln and the German aliens Oglethorpe and Emory. In the movie the origins of the three protagonists are explained. What’s bad about this movie is that you will most likely not enjoy watching it at all if you do not currently watch the show. None of the characters or their backgrounds are explained. You should not go see the movie if you have never watched the show. If you really want to go see it, it is highly advised to watch at least a couple of the episodes before you go.

A 12- Drama man jury is sent to begin deliberations in the first-degree murder trial of an 18-year-old Latino accused in the stabbing death of his father - where a guilty verdict means an automatic death sentence. The case appears to be open-and-shut: The defendant has a weak alibi; a knife he claimed to have lost is found at the murder scene; and several witnesses either heard screaming - saw the killing or the boy fleeing the scene. Eleven of the jurors immediately vote guilty; only Juror No. 8 (Mr. Davis) casts a not guilty vote. At first Mr. Davis' bases his vote more so for the sake of discussion after all - the jurors must believe beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant is guilty.
