Pangaea Spinosaurus Quatora Kohala 18 hours ago, dgrimm60 said: PANGAEA Answer: About 300 million years ago, Earth didn't have seven continents, but instead one massive supercontinent called Pangaea, which was surrounded by a single ocean called Panthalassa. Pangaea was a supercontinent that existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras. It assembled from earlier continental units approximately 300 million years ago, and it began to break apart about 175 million years ago. Pangaea was the most recent supercontinent to have existed and the first to be reconstructed by geologists.

For all his films, for all his stints as an Oscar host, and for all his excellence in acting, Hope never won a non-honorary Oscar. He never had the chance to hear his name called while waiting in suspense. He did get two honorary Oscars, as well as several other acting honors and an honorary title from the UK. He also had the sense to turn the whole situation into a running joke. 19 hours ago, phkrause said: During Which War Did Bob Hope Entertain the Troops Overseas? Every single U.S. war between World War II and the Gulf War. The USO calls Bob Hope the “One-Man Morale Machine” for his ability to swoop in on battle-worn soldiers and immediately turn the energy up to 100. In total, Hope headlined 58 shows in the 49 years he worked with USO, including trips to Beirut, remote outposts in Alaska, and Bahrain and Saudi Arabia as part of the Gulf War. 19 hours ago, phkrause said: Which Star Did Hope Appear With in His Last TV Performance? Hope remained active well into his senior years, and his last TV appearance was at the 1989 Oscars when he presented a segment on stars of tomorrow. His co-star? None other than Lucille Ball. The two were introduced by Walter Matthau and received a standing ovation. Sadly, Ball died less than a month after the broadcast, making this one of the last performances she gave as well. 19 hours ago, phkrause said: How Did Hope React to His Own Death? In early June 1998, Bob Hope got an alarming call from the press asking him to comment on his recent death. Of course, Hope had not died (and would not for another five years). But what happened could only be described as a true comedy of errors. The Associated Press had a pre-written obituary for Hope that was accidentally released. Bob Stump, a Republican representative from Arizona and former Navy officer during Pearl Harbor, saw the obituary and proceeded to give a eulogy for Hope during House proceedings that was broadcast live on C-SPAN. That lead to widespread news coverage of Hope’s death, until, of course, everyone found out he was still alive and quite well. Luckily, Hope didn't get too broken up over his own death and treated it with a sense of humor.

Gymnastics Archery Fencing Wrestling Wrestling dgrimm60 the answer is WRESTLING Answer: Greco-Roman wrestling is a style of wrestling that is practiced worldwide. It was contested at the first modern Olympic Games in 1896 and has been included in every edition of the summer Olympics held since 1908. This style of wrestling forbids holds below the waist; this is the major difference from freestyle wrestling, the other form of wrestling at the Olympics. Many believe that Greco-Roman Wrestling is the oldest sport on the planet, with ancient cave drawings suggesting that competitions may have been held way back in 3000 BC.

Produced with an estimated budget of $3 million, Animal House became a huge, multi-million-dollar box-office hit, spawned a slew of cinematic imitations and became part of pop-culture history. Set at the fictional Faber College (the University of Oregon served as a stand-in during filming), the film is about a misfit group of fraternity members who challenge the authority of the dean of Faber College.

On 7/29/2018 at 4:05 PM, dgrimm60 said: ANNE HATHAWAY Answer: Anne Hathaway was the wife of William Shakespeare, the English poet, playwright and actor. The two were married in 1582, when he was 18 and she was 26 years old. Very little is known about Anne Hathaway, but her personality and relationship to Shakespeare have been the subject of much speculation by many historians. In his will, Shakespeare famously made only one bequest to his wife, his "second-best bed with the furniture". This bequest to Anne has often been interpreted as a slight, implying that Anne was in some sense only the "second best" person in his intimate life.

Brown Green Blue Hazel My guess Hazel On 7/29/2018 at 5:03 PM, dgrimm60 said: GREEN Answer: Green eye color is often confused with hazel eye color, yet is entirely separate and distinct. Green eye color is the rarest color found around the world, and it is estimated that only around 2% of the world's population has green colored eyes. Green eye color is a result of a mild amount of pigmentation in the eye with a golden tint. When combined with the natural blue scattering of the eye, the colors mix to give a green appearance. Green eye color is most common in northern and central Europe, but can also be found in western Asian cultures on rare occasion.
