1. The Wikipedia page for which scientific family?

Four French scientists with the same X family name are in direct lineage, Charles, Georges, Edmond and Jacques: Charles X (18321899): French chemist known for the XY reaction, which was developed by Charles and James Y in 1877. Georges X (18651933), French crystallographer and mineralogist; son of Charles Edmond X (18951972), French Polytechnic and mining engineer, founder of BRGM, the French geological survey; son of Georges Jacques X (1921-), French physicist; son of Edmond.

Hint: A little manipulation of the letters in Y, and you would have the world's third largest Food and Beverage Company by revenue. 2. While we thus reject all of which we can entertain the smallest doubt, and even imagine that it is false, we easily indeed suppose that there is neither God, nor sky, nor bodies, and that we ourselves even have neither hands nor feet, nor, finally, a body; but we cannot in the same way suppose that we are not while we doubt of the truth of these things; for there is a repugnance in conceiving that what thinks does not exist at the very time when it thinks. Accordingly, the knowledge, ________________________, is the first and most certain that occurs to one who philosophizes orderly." Fill in the Blanks. 3. What was blanked out? (IMAGE)

4. 10 years of _______. Jan. 22 to the day, when the domain was registered. When I started _______ during engineering school, I truly did not think I'd be working on it for 10 years, but here I am. Napster, Kazaa, Suprnova. Big names have come and gone, and the Internet has changed. One would think we the people of the Internet are losing to the copyright cartels, but I think different. I saw solidarity against tyranny in protests against SOPA, which did not pass (happy coincident that Internet Freedom Day, Jan. 18 when SOPA failed, is so close to our anniversary). I see musicians and filmmakers slowly but surely warming up to new possibilities of Internet distribution and promotion, abandoning notions of "1 download = 1 lost sale" in the physical age. Ideals of the Free Software movement and Creative Commons will face new challenges with 3D printed copies of physical objects, replicated from copyrightable digital designs. We are moving into the world of science fiction. Will copyright or even money be relics like in Star Trek, where all material scarcity and wants are gone, replicators can make anything needed, and holodecks can create any world imaginable? Too utopian perhaps, but if someone from 100 years ago is to look at technologies we have now, a lot of it maybe construed as magic too. Where can you see this?

5. X was assigned by Y in reference to one of British naval intelligence's key achievements of World War I: the breaking of the German diplomatic code. One of the German documents cracked and read by the British was the Zimmermann Telegram, which was coded X, and which was one of the factors that led to the US entering the war. Subsequently if material was graded X it meant it was highly classified and, as journalist Ben Macintyre has pointed out, "to anyone versed in intelligence history, X signified the highest achievement of intelligence." X and Y? 6. Connect. i. ii. iii. iv. v. The demigod son of Thetis and Peleus. A pathologist by the name Paul Langerhans. The first human. [See Image] On whose grave would you see this: X / outstanding pathologist / of histological science / precursor and master / the secret structure / of the nervous tissue / with strenuous effort / discovered and described / here he worked / here he lives / here he guides and enlightens future scholars 7. X got their name from the preset buttons in X receivers. When one used to select preset stations on a X receiver physically instead of electronically, depressing one preset button would pop out whichever other button happened to be pushed in. X? 8. The name X was chosen based on George Orwell's fictional language Y, described in his novel Nineteen Eighty-Four as being "the only language in the world whose vocabulary gets smaller every year". What? 9. When the X Y began in 2003, the ordinary Y already had 150,000 _______, and seven other Ys in other languages had over 15,000 ________. Since the other Ys already have so many _________, most X __________ take __________ from other Xs and make them Y; they are usually not new ________. Right now, the XY has 103,236 ______. Some examples of people who use X Y: Students Children Adults who might find it hard to learn or read People who are learning English What is X and Y? 10. The poem begins as an old X departs his workshop, leaving his Y with chores to perform. Tired of fetching water by pail, the Y enchants a broom to do the work for him using magic in which he is not yet fully trained. The floor is soon awash with water, and the Y realizes that he cannot stop the broom because he does not know how.

Not knowing how to control the enchanted broom, the X splits it in two with an axe, but each of the pieces becomes a new broom and takes up a pail and continues fetching water, now at twice the speed. When all seems lost, the old Y returns, quickly breaks the spell and saves the day. What? 11. While at college, Marc Ewing was given the Cornell lacrosse team cap by his grandfather. People would turn to him to solve their. By the time he wrote the manual of the beta version of X he had lost the cap, so the manual included an appeal to readers to return his X if found. X? 12. The predecessors to what? Clifford Stoll's discovery of German spies tampering with his system. Bill Cheswick's "Evening with Berferd" 1992 in which he set up a simple electronic "jail" to observe an attacker. In 1988, an employee at the NASA Ames Research Centres sending of a memo by email to his colleagues that read, "We are currently under attack from an Internet VIRUS! It has hit Berkeley, UC San Diego, Lawrence Livermore, Stanford, and NASA Ames.
