X was the first African American to be either nominated for or to win an Academy Award when she won Best Supporting Actress for the movie Y.However, when the movie premiered at the Loew's Grand Theater in Atlanta, she along with the other black actors were advised against attending as the Jim Crow laws in effect in Georgia at the time prevented them from sitting with the rest of the cast.The lead actor in the movie threatened to boycott the premiere unless X was allowed to attend, but she convinced him to go ahead anyway.Who is X? [Half points only if you can identify the movie.]

Question 1:Lets start with an easy one

Question 2• X:“Last Friday, April 16, 1943, I was forced to interrupt my work

in the laboratory in the middle of the afternoon and proceed home, being affected by a remarkable restlessness, combined with a slight dizziness. At home I lay down and sank into a not unpleasant, intoxicated-like condition characterized by an extremely stimulated imagination. In a dreamlike state, with eyes closed (I found the daylight to be unpleasantly glaring), I perceived an uninterrupted stream of fantastic pictures, extraordinary shapes with intense, kaleidoscopic play of colors. After some two hours this condition faded away.”

• Give me X and what is the context ? (part points allowed)

Question 3• This is James Smith, widower of Moira Smith, winner of the “woman

of the year,2001” (for her daring services in 9/11 attacks) speaking in relation to X being given the “Woman of the year,2015”

• “I was shocked and saddened to learn that Glamour has just named X -‘Woman of the Year’. Was there no woman in America, or the rest of the world, more deserving than this man?

• “At a time when we have women in the armed forces fighting and dying for our country, heroic doctors fighting deadly diseases, women police officers and firefighters putting their lives on the line for total strangers, brave women overcoming life threatening diseases… the list of possibilities goes on … is this the best you could do?”Simply give me X !

Question 4• These are some of the tweets in repercussions to a quiz

question. Either give me X and Y or give me the context.• Pretty sure Y is now regretting his birthday after reading

this quiz question and answer. • Presenting the worst quiz question in the history of the

world. Take a bow X• Even Hindi news channels wouldn't have been able to

come up with this.• This will be quoted again and again whenever a brand

Question 5*• Which word, acc to the OED, is thought to have been

derived from French, Spanish and Portuguese words, all of which mean rough or imperfect pearl?

• The words were used in the sense that few pearls were differently shaped than the usual smooth ones. The word was first applied in a derogatory sense to harp on the elaborate emphasis.

• Later, it came to define an era and was applied to all things of such elaborate nature.

Question 6

• The Surname X is most likely derived from a Chinese surname. X is the Vietnamese transliteration of the Chinese surname, which is often transliterated as Ruan in Mandarin, Yuen in Cantonese.

• By 19th century the dynasty seized power and unified the country and a rhyming version of the previous surnames developed.

• This Surname has an estimated 40% population in Vietnam.

Question 7

• Mohamed Fadel Fahmy, along with two other journalists Peter Greste and Baher Mohamed - all working with Al Jazeera - were arrested in December 2013 for "publishing false news about Egypt" in support of Muslim Brotherhood.

Question 11• A X is a long, trapeze-shaped traditional Russian jumper

dress (pinafore) worn as Russian folk costume by women and girls.• It was the dress worn by peasant girls and women in the central

and northern part of Russia until the 20th century. Russian women from the upper and middle classes stopped wearing traditional Russian costume in the 18th century, during Peter the Great's modernization of Russia, apart from the Kokoshinks as part a court dress (although the clothing style of Russian aristocrats differed greatly from those of commoners). It is now worn as folk costume for performing Russian folk songs and folk dancing.

Question 12

GK Chesterton closes with the following stanza in his poem Lepanto :-

blade.... (But Don John of Austria rides home from the Crusade.)

• Those who practice X believe that there is one God and many kinds of spirits called loa. The purpose of X is to serve these spirits and keep their goodwill. The spirits serve as a link between people and the god whom the Haitians call Bondye.

• The second lady moved to India in 1940 and ended up spending the last few years of her life at the ashram of Sri Aurobindo in Puducherry, where she adopted the name Nistha.

Question 16

• On February 3, 1959, rock and roll musicians Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and J. P.

The event later became known as “X", after singer-songwriter Don McLean so referred to it in his song "American Pie".X ???

Question 17• The two-word slogan is extensively used in Iran, North India and

Pakistan to ward-off the evil eye. It is a Persian language derivation which literally means "far be the evil eye."

Question 19• The Ampelmännchen was created in East Germany by Karl Peglau in 1961. He

argued that the existing forms at the time disadvantaged people who had difficulty differentiating between colors as well as were often too small and weak when viewed in sunlight.

• As a part of the reunification in 1990, most of the Ampelmännchen were discarded in favor of a standardized set throughtout Germany. Nevertheless, they become a virtual mascot for East German nostalgia (Ostalgie) and a hugely popular souvenir item.

• As a result of public demand, the Ampelmännchen started making a comeback in some areas of Berlin in the mid-2000s.

• Who/what is the Ampelmännchen?

the crew conducted an _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (X Y) hunt on the sets as a fun activity during one of the off days.

• These appearances were: one under Frank's throne, one instead of a light in the main room and one as the group goes up in the elevator to the lab.

In later years Hibernian used the song to taunt Hearts about their financial troubles by singing "All the Hibees get paid" to the song's main riff.
