Williams On-Airs Jan 2013 The 93rd Semi-Annual Williams Trivia Contest Presented by: Jack Is Da Bomb! MUST CAPTURE MOOSE AND SQUIRREL! January 11-12, 2013 Williams Trivia, January 2013 11-Jan-13 #1 Realm: Welcome to Williams Trivia! Subrealm: It’s possible that the answer to the first question will be the name of the most recent winning team… Q: Although he is the pride of the state of Washington and the first one-man winning team in Williams Trivia history, what statement should you NOT make about the winner of the May 2012 contest anywhere near airport security? A: “Jack Is da Bomb”. Song: “Hit the Road Jack” by Ray Charles (George, please edit this to be 3+ minutes) #2 Realm: Sloppy Seconds Subrealm: The team that finished second in May, but has graciously agreed to present tonight’s contest… Q: On The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show, what exact phrase was probably never uttered by either Boris or Natasha? A: “Must capture Moose and Squirrel!” Song: “Hell” by Squirrel Nut Zippers #3 Realm: Baby Subrealm: One More Time Q: Bode Dockal did something twice by the age of 13 months that very few people will ever do in their lives. What? A: Attend a perfect game. (The first two baseball games his dad brought him to were Phil Humber's and Felix Hernandez's perfectos.) SONG: "Nothing's Too Good for My Baby" by Stevie Wonder (Despite being more than 60 years older than Bode Dockal, Stevie Wonder has never seen a perfect game.) #4 Realm: Kneel before Zod! Subrealm: Oops, sorry…I meant Neil Armstrong Q: Only the most conspiracy–minded among us actually believe that the Apollo moon landings were staged. But, in a 2005 interview, Neil Armstrong revealed an equally-upsetting space cover-up. What is this long-running NASA secret? A: The astronauts didn’t actually drink Tang. Song: “All Mixed Up” by 311 #5 Realm: TV Stars Subrealm: Picky About Their Roles Q: What long-running television star made his debut in the 1973 movie “The Long Goodbye”, playing the same role he would later take to the small screen? A: Morris the Cat. Song: “Nine Lives” by Aerosmith 2 Williams Trivia, January 2013 11-Jan-13 #6 Realm: All-time great actresses Subrealm: Are not even vaguely involved in this question Q: What accomplished actress “starred” in the following movies: Belly Dancers from Bali-Bali; The Bird People Meet the Chicken-Pluckers; The Hula Girl and the Fullback; Mohawk Over the Moon; The Rain Dancers of Rango-Rango; San Quentin Blues; Sing a Song of Sing-Sing; Housewives from Mars; and Dracula's Women? A: Ginger Grant, best known as one of the castaways from Gilligan’s Island. Song: “Ship of Fools” by World Party #7 Realm: All-time great actresses Subrealm: ARE involved in this question Q: Five famous actors and actresses have been nominated for at least 10 Oscars for acting. THIS IS A THREE-POINT PLAY! For one point, name four of them. For two points, name all five. A: Bette Davis; Katherine Hepburn; Jack Nicholson; Lawrence Olivier; Meryl Streep. Song: “Stacked Actors” by Foo Fighters #8 Realm: All-time great actresses Subrealm: Wear no clothes Q: Mr. Skin, frequent Howard Stern guest and expert on movies where famous actresses appear naked, gives out an award for each year’s best nude scene. What’s the name of this “honor”? A: The Anatomy Award. Song: “Swallowed” by Bush #9 Realm: Silly Walks Subrealm: Fawlty Towers Q: Sadly, John Cleese was not on that list of actors who were nominated for 10 Oscars. But he’s better than that hack Olivier anyway. What was the Cleese family surname before John's father changed it upon joining the British Army during World War I? A: Cheese. Song: “Cream” by Prince #10 Realm: Roller Coasters and Hot Dogs Subrealm: Coney Island Question: Starting in 1903, Coney Island featured “hatcheries” where you could pay a dime to watch these little creatures grow to full size. What were they? Answer: Premature babies. Song: “Watching Scotty Grow” by Bobby Goldsboro 3 Williams Trivia, January 2013 11-Jan-13 #11 Realm: The Undeniable Excitement Subrealm: Of Bureaucracy Question: Where can you find Forms 29827281-12, 55551-5, and 55551-6? Answer: At the end of the video game Portal (they’re the forms GLaDOS “fills out” while singing “Still Alive”) Song: “I Will Survive” by Cake #12 Realm: Hey, your Airport SUX Subrealm: So Sioux Me! Q: The Sioux City Gateway Airport is stuck with the unfortunate aviation designation code “SUX.” Naturally, airport authorities petitioned for a new code. Which code did the FAA offer them as a replacement? A: GAY. (They turned it down, and the airport stuck with SUX.) Song: “YYZ” by Rush (“YYZ” is the aviation designation code for Pearson International Airport in Toronto.) #13 Realm: Just Peachy Subrealm: Georgia Schools Q: Students in Bibb County, Georgia, are now being required to learn which foreign language? A: Mandarin. Song: “Orange Crush” by REM #14 Realm: Everybody’s Favorite Unlovable Losers Subrealm: The Red Sox Q: On August 8, 2005, the Boston Red Sox set the American League record with 3 of these in their lineup. 3 what? A: Jews. That day, they started Gabe Kapler, Kevin Youkilis, and Adam Stern. The major league record remains 4, set by the 1941 New York Giants with Sid Gordon, Morrie Arnovich, Harry Feldman, and Harry Danning. Songs: “Candlelight” by The Maccabeats #15 Realm: Two-letter abbreviations Subrealm: That’s not B.S. Q: In 1963, the U.S. Postal Service adopted ZIP codes and two-letter state abbreviations. Since that time, only one state has changed its abbreviation. What state and why? A: Nebraska used to be "NB" but Canada asked if they could use it for New Brunswick. Song: "Take Off” by Bob and Doug McKenzie (and Geddy Lee; his name not needed) 4 Williams Trivia, January 2013 11-Jan-13 #16 Realm: Take Off Subrealm: To The Great White North Q: The Bob and Doug MacKenzie comedy Strange Brew, which amazingly has a 70% “Fresh” rating on RottenTomatoes.com, was filmed using the second draft of the script. The first draft was rejected because it was basically a remake of what other, better known story? A: Hamlet. Song: “I Fought The Law” by Mary’s Danish #17 Realm: This Question Is Exciting Subrealm: So Get Fired Up Q: At a minimum of a million dollars per appearance, who is the world’s highest-paid public speaker? A: Sadly, it’s Donald Trump. No word on how much for just the hairpiece. Song: “You Talk Too Much” by Run-D.M.C. #18 Realm: College Football Subrealm: Teams That Williams Could Beat Q: Oberlin College, near Cleveland, has seen some hard times on the football field, including a streak from 1990 through 2001 where they lost more games than any other team in the sport. Despite this, what feat did they accomplish in 1892 that has not been done since? A: They were the last Ohio-based team to beat Ohio State. (John Heisman was their coach at the time.) Song: “Cleveland Rocks” by Ian Hunter #19 Realm: Batman Villains Subrealm: Half This Question Is Great, While The Other Half Stinks Q: As anyone who sat through the boring “hero DA” subplot of The Dark Knight to get to the good Joker scenes knows, Harvey Dent became Two-Face, Batman’s enemy, for a whole 25 minutes. In the comics, Harvey Dent originally had a different last name. What was it, and why the change? A: Harvey Kent. DC changed it to avoid any implication he was somehow related to Clark Kent’s family. Song: “Both Sides, Now” by Judy Collins #20 Realm: Sports Subrealm: Dominated Sports Q: 1992's Olympic "Dream Team" was unique in many ways - but the one we're after is not a statistic we've ever seen on a trophy. 12 victorious games equal 48 quarters defining the term "world-class basketball" in a way most would consider unmatched in the 13.5 billion year history of the universe. What we want to know is what did the Dream Team NOT do for all 48 of those spectacular quarters? A: Call a time out. S: “Stop To Love” by Luther Vandross 5 Williams Trivia, January 2013 11-Jan-13 #21 Realm: Teens Hanging Out In A Painted Stoner Van Subrealm: Yep, Scooby-Doo Q: The gang from Scooby-Doo was famous for all the guest stars they had on their shows. But they once returned the favor. The Scooby gang guest starred in an episode of Batman: The Brave and the Bold, helping Batman rescue whom from The Joker and The Penguin? A: “Weird Al” Yankovic. Song: “Stairway To Heaven” by Those Darn Accordions! #22 Realm: TV Subrealm: Is this a rerun? Q: Two actors have each had four TV shows based on their real names. Please name both of these vain thespians. A: Bill Cosby (The Bill Cosby Show, The Cosby Show, Cosby, and Cos); Bob Newhart (2 shows both named The Bob Newhart Show (one a variety show in the 60s, and the 70s sitcom), Newhart, and Bob). Song: “Billy, Don’t Be a Hero” by Bo Donaldson & the Heywoods #23 Realm: The Grammys, the True Arbiter of Taste Subrealm: As Proven by Winners like Debby Boone, the Starland Vocal Band, and Milli Vanilli Q: What did the winners for the Grammy for Album of the Year in both 1961 and 1963 have in common, something that is unlikely to ever happen again? A: They were comedy albums (1961’s winner was The Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart, and 1963’s was The First Family by Vaughn Meader).

    The Legacy of Leadership is Persistent with the Class having Leadership like Ron Lazar, supported by his lovely bride Lilliane and 32 other helping hands, 1953 had an 80.4% Participation tally in the 2015 Dartmouth College Fund drive, an awesome achievement. Many were involved, but leadership and persistence were motivated by our leader Ron and Lilliane, and 32 teammates that Ron has dubbed Team Terrific, helping hands that led to this extraordinary achievement to sustain the Legacy of 1953. Details of this fabulous achievement follow. Mark Smoller’s Class Notes for the Alumni Magazine in the fall. “It was not, “So long!”, but “See ya later!” at a send-off gathering for Bonnie and Dave Siegal. Thirty-three classmates and their wives and widows gathering at Kendall to wish the Siegal’s well. After many years of on the scene, service to the Class and the College, Bonnie and Dave are leaving for Tulsa, Oklahoma, and will be missed in Hanover. We look forward to seeing them as they return for various events, and wish them good luck in their new digs. Attending the Siegal’s party were Dick and Cynthia O’Connor, Clark and Linda Brink, Seth Carpenter, Liz King, Jane Springer, Russ and Marge Cook, Bill Murray, Bob and Mary Bee Longabaugh, Jack and Jody Zimmerman, Bob and Anne Simpson, Nancy and Caroline Johnson, Lillian and Holly Goss, Put and Marian Blodgett, Dave and Bonnie Siegal, Allen Collins, Chuck and Donna Reilly, Harlan Fair, Granthia Preston, Joe and Jane Stevens, and John and Barbara Kennedy.

These are the first measurements for two of the systems. We also present the earliest measurements of relative position for 17 others. We include orbits for six of the systems, two revised and four reported for the first time. For one of 0.1175 0.0079 the systems with a new orbit, G 161-7, we determine masses of 0.156 ± 0.011 and for the A and B components, respectively. All six of these new calculated orbits have short periods (between fiveand38years) and hold the promise of deriving accurate masses in the near future.
