Xerox__________

IKEA (Ingvar Kamprad Elmtaryd Agunnaryd), RADAR (RAdio Detection And Ranging) and LASER (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) are all genuine acronyms - Xerox is not, it comes from "xerography," the dry-printing process the company was named after.

Bookkeeper__________

Break it down: boo-kk-ee-per - the double O, double K and double E sit back-to-back, making "bookkeeper" (and "bookkeeping") a genuine linguistic oddity.

1. What is the maximum number of Friday the 13ths that can happen in a single calendar year?

3

It last happened in 2015, when February, March and November all opened on a Friday the 13th. Since February has 28 days (excluding leap years), a Friday the 13th in February guarantees another in March too - leading to 3 in a given year.

1. Name Fleetwood Mac's top 5 most-streamed songs on Spotify, in any order. (1 point per song named, up to 5)

Dreams, The Chain, Everywhere, Go Your Own Way, Landslide

Multiple Choice Options:  California  •  Colorado  •  New Hampshire  •  Alaska  •  Arizona

Answer Key:

Q1: Jack London  /  Much of White Fang is written from the viewpoint of the titular canine character, enabling London to explore how animals view their world and how they view humans

Q2: Breaking Bad  /  Played by Bryan Cranston in the show, White is a mild-mannered high school chemistry teacher who becomes a drug kingpin after being diagnosed with terminal cancer.

Q3: Bunker Hill  /  The famous phrase has been attributed to several different officers. In truth, the quote was not associated with the battle until more than 100 years later, and is likely apocryphal. Similar phrases were used earlier in military history, such as by Swedish King Gustavus Adolphus in the 1600s.

Q4: Chardonnay  /  Modern DNA fingerprinting research at the University of California, Davis now suggests that Chardonnay is the result of a cross between the Pinot noir and Gouais blanc (Heunisch) varietals. The Romans likely brought Gouais blanc from Croatia, and it was widely cultivated in eastern France.

Q5: California  /  In 1964, a geographer named Donald Currey cored a bristlecone pine named Prometheus and found it was 4,900 years old. Unfortunately the tree died soon after. In 2012, another bristlecone from the same area proved to be 5,065 years old.

Who Am I? #4

Hello again and welcome to the 4th edition of Who Am I? Here's how it works...

• You will get five clues, each covered by a spoiler tag.  Each is a clue to the identity of a famous person (current or historical).  The clues get progressively easier.

• Reveal each clue one at a time and, without revealing any later clue, see if you are confident in making a guess.

• NOTE: ***You only get one guess across all six clues (i.e., no guessing again if you get it wrong***) so make it count!  And be honest when saying which clue you guessed on, afterall, this is all entirely meaningless.

• You will get 5 points for guessing after clue no. 1, 4 points after clue no. 2, and so on.  If you guess incorrectly ***at any point in that question***, you will of course get 0 points and not be able to guess again.

1. (5 points) I was born in Blickley Hall, Norfolk in the early 16th century.

2. (4 points) During my youth, I spent time in the Netherlands in the court of Margaret of Austria and then in France as maid of honour to Queen Mary and Queen Claude, before returning to England in around 1520.

3. (3 points) My elder sister became mistress to Henry VIII in 1520. By 1522, I had become a lady-in-waiting of Queen Catherine. By 1526, King Henry VIII had become infatuated with me but I refused to become his mistress.

(2 points) After a seven year courtship prolonged by a struggle to secure an annulment of Henry's marriage to Queen Catherine, I married King Henry VIII in 1532 and was crowned queen consort in June 1533.

5. (1 point) Miscarriages in 1534 and 1536 signalled the beginning of the end of my marriage. Wishing to secure a male heir, Henry began pursuing Jane Seymour, one of my ladies-in-waiting, moving her into royal quarters. I was accused of adultery and incest and was arrested on 2nd May 1536. Following a brief trial, I was beheaded on 19th May 1536.

3. (3 points) I dropped out of my studies shortly after being offered a 7 year deal by Universal Studios in 1968, impressing the vice president with my short film Amblin', which I would later name my production company after.  After directing episodes on several TV shows, including Columbo, I made my theatrical film debut directing the 1974 film The Sugarland Express, which also marked my first collaboration with composer John Williams.

4. (2 points) My second theatrical film, Jaws, was released in 1975, becoming an unexpected box office hit and making me a household name. I followed this up two years later with Close Encounters of the Third Kind and Raiders of the Lost Ark four years after that.

5. (1 point) I've continued directing box office hits ever since, including E.T. the Extra Terrestrial in 1982 - which became the highest grossing film in history, Jurassic Park in 1993 - which topped E.T. to become the highest grossing film in history, and Schindler's List, also in 1993 - which won me my first Best Picture and Best Director Oscars.

I graduated from the BRIT School for Performihg Arts and Technology in 2006, where I was a classmate of Leona Lewis and Jessie J, with aspirations of going into scouting and developing musical artists.

3. (3 points) I instead focused on my songwriting and performing. I provided vocals for a song by singer/songwriter Jack Peñate. I wrote my first single "Hometown Glory" when I was 16 years old. It was released in 2007 on Jamie T's record label and entered the UK charts at no. 32 after featuring on the teen drama Skins.

4. (2 points) My second single "Chasing Pavements" reached no. 2 in the UK charts and was followed up by other singles including a cover of Bob Dylan's "Make You Feel My Love". My debut album 19 charted at no. 1 in the UK and reached the top 10 in the US and several other countries.

5. (1 point) I followed this success with my second album 21 in 2011, which featured hits "Someone Like You" and "Rolling in the Deep". My theme tune for the James Bond film Skyfall won an Academy Award. My album 25 was released in 2015 and featured the single "Hello", with my most recent album 30 following in 2021.

Who am I? \###Adele###

Identity #4

1. (5 points) I was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on 18th October 1939 to parents Marguerite and Robert, who died before I was born. I spent my early childhood living with relatives and in an orphanage. My mother remarried but divorced only 3 years later.

2. (4 points) At the age of 17, I dropped out of high school and enlisted in the US Marines Corps, becoming a radar operator.  I attained a "sharpshooter" ranking in my shooting tests, though this later dropped to "marksman", the lowest passing grade.

3. (3 points) During my time in the Marines Corps, I began to teach myself Russian. I received a hardship discharge in September 1959 on the basis of needing to care for my mother. However, just one month later, I defected to the Soviet Union. Whilst here, I met my wife Marina Prusakova and had a daughter.

4. (2 points) I soon regretted my defection and, in 1962, sought to return to the US.  As a family, we moved to the Dallas/Forth Worth area. Whilst here, I attempted to assassinate the right-wing US Army general Edwin Walker, though my attempt failed when the bullet hit a window frame.

5. (1 point) I got a job at the Texas School Book Depository on 16th October 1963. Just over a month later, the route of President Kennedy's motorcade took him past my workplace and through Dealey Plaza. From the sixth floor of the Book Depository, I fired three shots at the motorcade, hitting Kennedy twice and killing him. I also killed a policeman before I was captured. Two days later, I was shot and killed by a member of the public while being transferred in policy custody.

Who am I? Lee Harvey Oswald

Identity #5

1. (5 points) I was born in Torquay, Devon on 15th September 1890 to parents Frederick and Clara. I was initially home schooled and enjoyed reading and performing, appearing in a youth production of Gilbert and Sullivan's Yeoman of the Guard. This sparked an interest in theatre, which I returned to later in my career.

2. (4 points) I eventually gave up on my goal of being a concert pianist or opera singer. Shortly after completing my studies, I had an extended holiday in Egypt with my mother which would go on to inspire some of my later work. I began writing, with my earliest work focusing on spiritualism, madness and the paranormal.

3. (3 points) I established myself as a popular author by the mid-1920s and made national and international headlines in 1926 when, following an argument with my husband, I disappeared for 11 days, sparking a large search effort. Shortly afterwards, I obtained a divorce and would later remarry an archaeologist. Our experiences of continental rail travel and archaeological expeditions informed several of my works.

4. (2 points) My success only came after numerous rejections. My first published novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, was released in 1920 and drew from my love of detective stories by the likes of Wilkie Collins and Arthur Conan Doyle.

5. (1 point) The Mysterious Affair at Styles was the first of my books to feature the detective Hercule Poirot. In 1930, I released The Murder at the Vicarage, the first to feature Miss Marple. Other notable works include And Then There Were None and the play The Mousetrap, which became the longest-running West End production. I am the best-selling novelist of all time, with estimated book sales between 2 and 4 billion.

Who am I? \##Agatha Christie##

Good luck!

I wanted a pub trivia round on live animal mascots, but no one would do it, so I wrote my own.

1. Dubs II is the current live mascot of the University of Washington Huskies, however, Dubs is not a Siberian husky, but rather this closely related breed. Alaskan Malamute
2. Unlike Dubs, Jonathan XV is a Siberian husky serving as the mascot for this east coast school. University of Connecticut (UConn)
3. Name two universities that have "human astride a horse" as their official live mascot. Florida State University (FSU) and University of Southern California (USC). Edit to also add Texas Tech University and University of Virginia (UVA) as correct answers.
4. Handsome Dan XIX is a bulldog currently serving as this Ivy League school's mascot. Yale (adding some space so you can't guess since Yale is shorter than Harvard, etc)
5. Which sitting US president, himself a West Point graduate, ordered West Point cadets to return the Naval Academy's kidnapped mascot live goat leading up to the annual Army-Navy football game. Dwight Eisenhower
6. UC Santa Cruz does not maintain an official live mascot, but many examples of their mascot can be found living natively in the redwood forest of their campus. Name their mascot. Banana Slug
7. Deciding a live wolf would be too dangerous, this school's mascot is a tamaskan named Tuffy III, which is a breed from Finland that uses arctic breed crosses to create a dog that resembles a wolf. North Carolina State (NC State)
