Question: Hvor blev det mest guld fundet under gold rush?

Answer: Sutter's Mill

The California Gold Rush (1848–1855) began on January 24, 1848, when gold was found by James W. Marshall at Sutter's Mill in Coloma, California. The news of gold brought some 300,000 people to California from the rest of the United States and abroad. The sudden influx of immigration and gold into the money supply reinvigorated the American economy, and California became one of the few American states to go directly to statehood without first being a territory, in the Compromise of 1850. The Gold Rush had severe effects on Native Californians and resulted in a precipitous population decline from disease, genocide and starvation. By the time it ended, California had gone from a thinly populated ex-Mexican territory to the home state of the first nominee for the Republican Party.

Context:
California Gold Rush
Den californiske guldfeber (1848-1855) begyndte den 24. januar 1848, da James W. Marshall fandt guld ved Sutter's Mill i Coloma, Californien. Nyheden om guldet bragte omkring 300.000 mennesker til Californien fra resten af USA og udlandet. Den pludselige tilstrømning af indvandrere og guld i pengemængden gav ny energi til den amerikanske økonomi, og Californien blev en af de få amerikanske stater, der blev direkte statsdannet uden først at være et territorium, i Kompromiset af 1850. Guldfeberen havde alvorlige konsekvenser for de indfødte californiere og resulterede i en voldsom befolkningsnedgang som følge af sygdom, folkedrab og sult. Da den sluttede, var Californien gået fra at være et tyndt befolket tidligere mexicansk territorium til at være hjemstat for den første kandidat for det republikanske parti.

Question: Hvilket af følgende er et eksempel på regeringens obligatoriske udgifter?

Mandatory spending
In the United States, mandatory spending refers to budget authority and ensuing outlays provided in laws other than appropriations acts, including annually appropriated entitlements. In fiscal year (FY) 2014, mandatory spending accounted for about 60 percent of the federal budget and over 12 percent of gross domestic product (GDP). The two largest mandatory spending programs are Medicare and Social Security, which together account for nearly 40 percent of the federal budget. However, portions of the budgets for several other departments, including the Department of Agriculture, Department of Defense, Department of Education, and the Department of Veterans Affairs, include some mandatory spending.

Context:
Mandatory spending
I USA henviser obligatoriske udgifter til budgetmyndighed og deraf følgende udgifter, der er fastsat i andre love end bevillingslove, herunder årligt bevilgede rettigheder. I finansåret (FY) 2014 udgjorde de obligatoriske udgifter ca. 60 % af det føderale budget og over 12 % af bruttonationalproduktet (BNP). De to største obligatoriske udgiftsprogrammer er Medicare og Social Security, som tilsammen tegner sig for næsten 40 % af det føderale budget. Dele af budgetterne for flere andre ministerier, herunder landbrugsministeriet, forsvarsministeriet, undervisningsministeriet og Veteranministeriet, omfatter dog også obligatoriske udgifter.

Question: Hvem var djs der pionerer rapmusik i 1970'erne?

Answer: Grand Wizzard Theodore

Hip hop music
DJs such as Grand Wizzard Theodore, Grandmaster Flash, and Jazzy Jay refined and developed the use of breakbeats, including cutting and scratching. The approach used by Herc was soon widely copied, and by the late 1970s, DJs were releasing 12-inch records where they would rap to the beat. Popular tunes included Kurtis Blow's "The Breaks" and The Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight". Herc and other DJs would connect their equipment to power lines and perform at venues such as public basketball courts and at 1520 Sedgwick Avenue, Bronx, New York, now officially a historic building. The equipment consisted of numerous speakers, turntables, and one or more microphones. By using this technique, DJs could create a variety of music, but according to Rap Attack by David Toop "At its worst the technique could turn the night into one endless and inevitably boring song". KC The Prince of Soul, a rapper-lyricist with Pete DJ Jones, is often credited with being the first rap lyricist to call himself an "MC".

Context:
Hip hop music
DJ's som Grand Wizzard Theodore, Grandmaster Flash og Jazzy Jay forfinede og udviklede brugen af breakbeats, herunder cutting og scratching. Den metode, som Herc anvendte, blev hurtigt kopieret i stor stil, og i slutningen af 1970'erne udgav DJ'er 12-tommer plader, hvor de rappede til beatet. Blandt de populære numre var Kurtis Blow's "The Breaks" og The Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight". Herc og andre DJ's tilsluttede deres udstyr til strømledninger og optrådte på steder som offentlige basketballbaner og på 1520 Sedgwick Avenue, Bronx, New York, som nu officielt er en historisk bygning. Udstyret bestod af mange højttalere, pladespillere og en eller flere mikrofoner. Ved at bruge denne teknik kunne DJ's skabe en bred vifte af musik, men ifølge Rap Attack af David Toop "At its worst the technique could turn the night into one endless and inevitably boring song". KC The Prince of Soul, en rapper-lyriker med Pete DJ Jones, bliver ofte krediteret for at være den første rap-lyriker, der kaldte sig selv en "MC".


Question: Hvad er den vigtigste funktion af pcl i knæet?

Posterior cruciate ligament
The function of the PCL is to prevent the femur from sliding off the anterior edge of the tibia and to prevent the tibia from displacing posterior to the femur. The posterior cruciate ligament is located within the knee. Ligaments are sturdy bands of tissues that connect bones. Similar to the anterior cruciate ligament, the PCL connects the femur to the tibia.

Context:
Posterior cruciate ligament
PCL's funktion er at forhindre, at lårbenet glider væk fra den forreste kant af skinnebenet, og at forhindre, at skinnebenet forskubber sig bagud i forhold til lårbenet. Det bageste korsbånd er placeret i knæet. Ligamenter er robuste bånd af væv, der forbinder knogler. I lighed med det forreste korsbånd forbinder PCL lårbenet med skinnebenet.


Question: Hvem er i kø, hvis præsidenten dør?

The United States presidential line of succession is the order in which persons may become or act as President of the United States if the incumbent President becomes incapacitated, dies, resigns, or is removed from office (by impeachment by the House of Representatives and subsequent conviction by the Senate). The line of succession is set by the United States Constitution and the Presidential Succession Act of 1947 as subsequently amended to include newly created cabinet offices. The succession follows the order of Vice President, Speaker of the House of Representatives, President pro tempore of the Senate, and then the heads of federal executive departments who form the Cabinet of the United States. The Cabinet currently has fifteen members, beginning with the Secretary of State, and followed by the rest in the order of their positions' creation. Those heads of department who are ineligible to act as President are also ineligible to succeed the President by succession, for example most commonly if they are not a natural-born U.S. citizen.

Context:
United States presidential line of succession
USA's præsidentfølgerækkefølge er den rækkefølge, i hvilken personer kan blive eller fungere som USA's præsident, hvis den siddende præsident bliver inhabil, dør, træder tilbage eller afsættes fra sit embede (ved en rigsretssag fra Repræsentanternes Hus og efterfølgende domfældelse fra Senatets side). Arvefølgen er fastlagt i USA's forfatning og i loven om præsidentens efterfølger fra 1947, som senere er blevet ændret for at medtage nyoprettede kabinetskontorer. Efterfølgningen følger rækkefølgen: vicepræsident, formanden for Repræsentanternes Hus, senatets formand pro tempore og derefter lederne af de føderale forvaltningsafdelinger, som udgør USA's kabinet. Kabinettet består i øjeblikket af 15 medlemmer, begyndende med udenrigsministeren og efterfulgt af resten i den rækkefølge, hvori de blev oprettet. De departementschefer, der ikke kan fungere som præsident, kan heller ikke efterfølge præsidenten ved arvefølge, f.eks. oftest hvis de ikke er født som amerikanske statsborgere.


Question: Hvem grundlagde den tidlige skole af kognitiv psykologi?

Answer: Jean Piaget

Cognitive psychology
From the 1920s to the 1950s, the main approach to psychology was behaviorism. Initially, its adherents viewed mental events such as thoughts, ideas, attention, and consciousness as unobservables, hence outside the realm of a science of psychology. One pioneer of cognitive psychology, who worked outside the boundaries (both intellectual and geographical) of behaviorism was Jean Piaget. From 1926 to the 1950s and into the 1980s, he studied the thoughts, language, and intelligence of children and adults.

Context:
Cognitive psychology
Fra 1920'erne til 1950'erne var behaviorismen den vigtigste tilgang til psykologi. I begyndelsen betragtede dens tilhængere mentale begivenheder som tanker, ideer, opmærksomhed og bevidsthed som uobserverbare ting og dermed som noget, der ikke kunne observeres og derfor ikke kunne indgå i en psykologisk videnskab. En af pionererne inden for kognitiv psykologi, som arbejdede uden for behaviorismens grænser (både intellektuelt og geografisk), var Jean Piaget. Fra 1926 til 1950'erne og ind i 1980'erne studerede han børn og voksnes tanker, sprog og intelligens.


Question: Hvad er de forskellige størrelser af macbook pro?

At Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on June 8, 2009, it was announced that the 13-inch unibody MacBook would be upgraded and re-branded as a MacBook Pro, leaving only the white polycarbonate MacBook in the MacBook line. It was also announced that the entire MacBook Pro line would use the non user-removable battery first introduced in the 17-inch MacBook Pro. The updated MacBook Pro 13- and the 15-inch would each have up to a claimed seven hours of battery life, while the 17-inch would keep its eight-hour capacity. Some sources even reported up to eight hours of battery life for the 13- and 15-inch MacBook Pros during casual use, while others reported around six hours. Like the 17-inch MacBook Pro, Apple claims that they will last around 1,000 charge cycles while still containing 80 percent of their capacity. Graphics card options stayed the same from the previous release, although the 13-inch and the base model 15-inch, came with only the GeForce 9400M GPU. The screens were also improved, gaining a claimed 60 percent greater color gamut. All of these mid 2009 models also included a FireWire 800 port and all except the 17-inch models would receive an SD card slot. The 17-inch model would retain its ExpressCard/34 slot. For the 13-inch MacBook Pro, the Kensington lock slot was moved to the right side of the chassis. In August 2009, Apple extended the "matte" anti-glare display option to the 15-inch MacBook Pro.

Context: På Apples Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) den 8. juni 2009 blev det annonceret, at 13-tommers MacBook med ensidigt kabinet ville blive opgraderet og omdøbt til MacBook Pro, så der kun var den hvide MacBook i polycarbonat tilbage i MacBook-serien. Det blev også annonceret, at hele MacBook Pro-serien ville bruge det batteri, der ikke kan fjernes af brugeren, og som først blev introduceret i 17" MacBook Pro. Den opdaterede MacBook Pro 13- og 15-tommer MacBook Pro vil hver især have op til syv timers batterilevetid, mens 17-tommer MacBook Pro vil beholde sin otte timers kapacitet. Nogle kilder har endda rapporteret om op til otte timers batterilevetid for 13- og 15-tommer MacBook Pro'erne ved afslappet brug, mens andre har rapporteret om omkring seks timer. Ligesom den 17-tommer MacBook Pro hævder Apple, at de vil holde omkring 1.000 opladningscyklusser, mens de stadig indeholder 80 procent af deres kapacitet. Mulighederne for grafikkort forblev de samme som i den tidligere udgave, selv om 13-tommer og 15-tommer basismodellen kun kom med GeForce 9400M GPU'en. Skærmene blev også forbedret, idet de fik et påstået 60 procent større farvespektrum. Alle disse modeller fra midten af 2009 indeholdt også en FireWire 800-port, og alle undtagen 17-tommer-modellerne ville få et SD-kortslot. 17-tommersmodellen ville beholde sin ExpressCard/34-slot. For 13" MacBook Pro-modellen blev Kensington-låsesporet flyttet til højre side af chassiset. I august 2009 udvidede Apple den "matte" antirefleksskærm til også at omfatte 15" MacBook Pro-modellen.


Question: Hvorfor bruger printere cyan magenta og gul i stedet for rgb?

To reproduce color, the CMYK color model codes for absorbing light rather than emitting it (as is assumed by RGB). The 'K' component absorbs all wavelengths and is therefore achromatic. The Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow components are used for color reproduction and they may be viewed as the inverse of RGB. Cyan absorbs Red, Magenta absorbs Green, and Yellow absorbs Blue (-R,-G,-B).

Context:
CMYK color model
CMYK-farvemodellen koder for at gengive farver ved at absorbere lys i stedet for at udsende det (som RGB forudsætter). K-komponenten absorberer alle bølgelængder og er derfor achromatisk. Cyan, magenta og gul komponenterne anvendes til farvegengivelse og kan ses som den omvendte af RGB. Cyan absorberer rødt, magenta absorberer grønt, og gul absorberer blåt (-R,-G,-B).


Question: Hvem er mor til chris tates søn i emmerdale?

Answer: Rachel Hughes

Rachel Hughes
Rachel arrived in Beckindale in 1988 with her mother Kate and brother Mark after her parents divorced. Her mother began a feud with Joe Sugden in late 1988 after he shot and killed her dog because it was bothering his sheep. However, in early 1989, Joe and Kate fell in love and were married in April that year and Rachel was more accepting of her mother's new relationship unlike her brother Mark who wanted their parents to reconcile. Rachel began an affair with married man Pete Whiteley on her 18th birthday. He ended it when his wife, Lynn, became pregnant and they moved away from the village. Pete later returned and began seeing Rachel again until he was accidentally run over and killed by Rachel's mother, Kate. Lynn later got her revenge on Rachel by embarking on a relationship with Rachel's former stepfather, Joe. On 30 December 1993, a plane exploded over Beckindale, killing Rachel's brother, Mark. The disaster also left Chris Tate in a wheelchair. Rachel then began giving Chris swimming lessons and they embarked an affair. Chris's wife Kathy saw them kissing on their third wedding anniversary and attacked Rachel, banging her head against a wall. In December 1994, Rachel discovered that she was two months pregnant with Chris's baby and in June 1995, she gave birth to their son, Joseph Mark Tate, on the same day her former stepfather Joe Sugden died, naming her son in his honour. Kathy was present when Rachel went into labour and stayed with her on the journey to the hospital as Chris was nowhere to be found. This led to the two women becoming best friends and Rachel named Kathy as Joseph's godmother. On 7 December 1995, Rachel and Chris got married with Jack Sugden and his wife, Sarah, as witnesses. Chris wanted them to have another child and went for fertility treatment but Rachel secretly went on the pill. Chris and Rachel split up after Chris betrayed Rachel by stealing private information from her work file and Rachel was granted custody of Joseph. In July 1997, Rachel received news that her mother Kate had died of a brain haemorrhage. Rachel then embarked on an affair with Jack Sugden after he comforted her and attended the funeral with her for support. This was her third affair with a married man. However, Jack had no intention of breaking up his marriage and returned to his wife, Sarah.

Context:
Rachel Hughes
Rachel kom til Beckindale i 1988 sammen med sin mor Kate og bror Mark, efter at hendes forældre var blevet skilt. Hendes mor begyndte en fejde med Joe Sugden i slutningen af 1988, efter at han havde skudt og dræbt hendes hund, fordi den generede hans får. I begyndelsen af 1989 forelskede Joe og Kate sig imidlertid i hinanden og blev gift i april samme år, og Rachel accepterede i højere grad sin mors nye forhold i modsætning til sin bror Mark, som ønskede, at deres forældre skulle forsone sig. Rachel begyndte en affære med den gifte mand Pete Whiteley på sin 18-års fødselsdag. Han afsluttede den, da hans kone, Lynn, blev gravid, og de flyttede væk fra landsbyen. Pete vendte senere tilbage og begyndte at se Rachel igen, indtil han ved et uheld blev kørt over og dræbt af Rachels mor, Kate. Lynn fik senere hævn over Rachel ved at indlede et forhold med Rachels tidligere stedfar, Joe. Den 30. december 1993 eksploderede et fly over Beckindale og dræbte Rachels bror, Mark. Katastrofen efterlod også Chris Tate i en kørestol. Rachel begyndte derefter at give Chris svømmeundervisning, og de indledte en affære. Chris' kone Kathy så dem kysse hinanden på deres tredje bryllupsdag og angreb Rachel, idet hun slog hendes hoved mod en væg. I december 1994 opdagede Rachel, at hun var gravid i anden måned med Chris' barn, og i juni 1995 fødte hun deres søn, Joseph Mark Tate, samme dag som hendes tidligere stedfar Joe Sugden døde, og hun navngav sin søn til hans ære. Kathy var til stede, da Rachel fik veer, og hun blev hos hende på turen til hospitalet, da Chris ikke var til at finde nogen steder. Det førte til, at de to kvinder blev bedste veninder, og Rachel kaldte Kathy for Josephs gudmor. Den 7. december 1995 blev Rachel og Chris gift med Jack Sugden og hans kone, Sarah, som vidner. Chris ønskede, at de skulle have endnu et barn og gik til fertilitetsbehandling, men Rachel tog i hemmelighed p-piller. Chris og Rachel gik fra hinanden, efter at Chris havde forrådt Rachel ved at stjæle private oplysninger fra hendes arbejdsmappe, og Rachel fik forældremyndigheden over Joseph. I juli 1997 fik Rachel at vide, at hendes mor Kate var død af en hjerneblødning. Rachel indledte derefter en affære med Jack Sugden, efter at han havde trøstet hende og var med til begravelsen for at støtte hende. Dette var hendes tredje affære med en gift mand. Jack havde dog ingen intentioner om at bryde sit ægteskab og vendte tilbage til sin kone, Sarah.


Question: Hvem tror du kunne have udført danse i renæssancen?

Renaissance dance
Our knowledge of 15th-century Italian dances comes mainly from the surviving works of three Italian dance masters: Domenico da Piacenza, Antonio Cornazzano and Guglielmo Ebreo da Pesaro. Their work deals with similar steps and dances, though some evolution can be seen. The main types of dances described are bassa danze and balletti. These are the earliest European dances to be well-documented, as we have a reasonable knowledge of the choreographies, steps and music used.

Context:
Renaissance dance
Vores viden om det 15. århundredes italienske danse stammer hovedsageligt fra tre italienske dansemestres værker, der er bevaret: Domenico da Piacenza, Antonio Cornazzano og Guglielmo Ebreo da Pesaro. Deres værker omhandler lignende trin og danse, selv om man kan se en vis udvikling. De vigtigste typer af danse, der beskrives, er bassa danze og balletti. Disse er de tidligste europæiske danse, der er veldokumenterede, da vi har et rimeligt kendskab til de anvendte koreografier, trin og musik.

"Can't Find My Way Home" is a song written by Steve Winwood which was first released by Blind Faith on their 1969 album Blind Faith. Rolling Stone, in a review of the album, noted that the song featured "Ginger Baker's highly innovative percussion" and judged the lyric "And I'm wasted and I can't find my way home" to be "delightful".

Context: "Can't Find My Way Home" er en sang skrevet af Steve Winwood, som blev udgivet første gang af Blind Faith på deres album Blind Faith fra 1969.

Question: Erklæring om menneskers rettigheder og uafhængighedserklæring?

The Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen (French: Déclaration des droits de l'homme et du citoyen), passed by France's National Constituent Assembly in August 1789, is an important document of the French Revolution and in the history of human and civil rights. The Declaration was directly influenced by Thomas Jefferson, working with General Lafayette, who introduced it. Influenced also by the doctrine of "natural right", the rights of man are held to be universal: valid at all times and in every place, pertaining to human nature itself. It became the basis for a nation of free individuals protected equally by the law. It is included in the beginning of the constitutions of both the Fourth French Republic (1946) and Fifth Republic (1958) and is still current. Inspired by the Enlightenment philosophers, the Declaration was a core statement of the values of the French Revolution and had a major impact on the development of freedom and democracy in Europe and worldwide.

Context:
Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen
Erklæringen om menneskets og borgerens rettigheder (fransk: Déclaration des droits de l'homme et du citoyen), der blev vedtaget af Frankrigs forfatningsgivende nationalforsamling i august 1789, er et vigtigt dokument i den franske revolution og i historien om menneskerettigheder og borgerrettigheder. Erklæringen blev direkte påvirket af Thomas Jefferson, der arbejdede sammen med general Lafayette, som introducerede den. Under indflydelse af doktrinen om "naturlig ret" anses menneskets rettigheder for at være universelle: de er gyldige til enhver tid og på ethvert sted og hører til selve den menneskelige natur. Den blev grundlaget for en nation af frie individer, der er lige beskyttet af loven. Den indgår i begyndelsen af forfatningerne for både den fjerde franske republik (1946) og den femte republik (1958) og er stadig aktuel. Med inspiration fra oplysningsfilosofferne var erklæringen en central erklæring om værdierne i den franske revolution og havde stor betydning for udviklingen af frihed og demokrati i Europa og på verdensplan.


Question: Hvad er chancerne for at vende hoveder 5 gange i træk?

Gambler's fallacy
If after tossing four heads in a row, the next coin toss also came up heads, it would complete a run of five successive heads. Since the probability of a run of five successive heads is 1/32 (one in thirty-two), a person might believe that the next flip would be more likely to come up tails rather than heads again. This is incorrect, and is an example of the gambler's fallacy. The event "5 heads in a row" and the event "first 4 heads, then a tails" are equally likely, each having probability 1/32. Since the first four tosses turn up heads, the probability that the next toss is a head is:

Context:
Gambler's fallacy
Hvis den næste mønt efter at have kastet fire hoveder i træk også gav hoveder, ville den næste møntkast også give fem hoveder i træk. Da sandsynligheden for en række på fem på hinanden følgende hoveder er 1/32 (en ud af toogtredive), kan man tro, at det næste kast med mønten ville være mere sandsynligt, at det ville give plat end krone igen. Dette er forkert og er et eksempel på gambler's fejlslutning. Begivenheden "5 hoveder i træk" og begivenheden "først 4 hoveder, så en plat" er lige sandsynlige, idet de hver har en sandsynlighed på 1/32. Da de første fire kast giver et hoved, er sandsynligheden for, at det næste kast giver et hoved:

Question: Hvilken del af hjernen huse forening områder?

Answer: Frontallappen

Frontal lobe
The frontal lobe also plays an important part in integrating longer non-task based memories stored across the brain.  These are often memories associated with emotions derived from input from the brain's limbic system. The frontal lobe modifies those emotions to generally fit socially acceptable norms.

Context:
Frontal lobe
Frontallappen spiller også en vigtig rolle i integrationen af længere ikke-opgavebaserede erindringer, der er lagret i hele hjernen.  Det er ofte minder, der er forbundet med følelser, som stammer fra input fra hjernens limbiske system. Frontallappen modificerer disse følelser, så de generelt passer til socialt acceptable normer.

Question: Hvem kom med idéen til hypertekst?

Answer: Ted Nelson

Hypertext
In 1945, Vannevar Bush wrote an article in The Atlantic Monthly called "As We May Think", about a futuristic proto-hypertext device he called a Memex. A Memex would hypothetically store - and record - content on reels of microfilm, using electric photocells to read coded symbols recorded next to individual microfilm frames while the reels spun at high speed, stopping on command. The coded symbols would enable the Memex to index, search, and link content to create and follow associative trails. Because the Memex was never implemented and could only link content in a relatively crude fashion — by creating chains of entire microfilm frames — the Memex is now regarded only as a proto-hypertext device, but it is fundamental to the history of hypertext because it directly inspired the invention of hypertext by Ted Nelson and Douglas Engelbart.

Context:
Hypertext
I 1945 skrev Vannevar Bush en artikel i The Atlantic Monthly med titlen "As We May Think" om en futuristisk proto-hypertekst-enhed, som han kaldte en Memex. En Memex ville hypotetisk set lagre - og registrere - indhold på mikrofilmruller, idet der blev brugt elektriske fotoceller til at læse kodede symboler, der var registreret ved siden af de enkelte mikrofilmrammer, mens rullerne snurrede med høj hastighed og stoppede på kommando. De kodede symboler ville gøre det muligt for Memex at indeksere, søge og sammenkæde indhold for at skabe og følge associative spor. Da Memex aldrig blev implementeret og kun kunne forbinde indhold på en relativt grov måde - ved at skabe kæder af hele mikrofilmrammer - betragtes Memex nu kun som en proto-hypertekst-enhed, men den er af grundlæggende betydning for hypertekstens historie, fordi den direkte inspirerede Ted Nelson og Douglas Engelbarts opfindelse af hypertekst.


Question: Hvor er skuespillerinden, der spillede rosario på will og grace?

Answer: Shelley Morrison

Shelley Morrison (born Rachel Mitrani; October 26, 1936) is an American actress. Early in her career, she was sometimes credited as Rachel Domínguez. Morrison has been a theater and television actress since the early 1960s, predominantly as a character actress in ethnic roles. Her most recognizable role has been as the maid Rosario Salazar in the NBC comedy television series Will & Grace, which she played from 1999 to 2006. She was a regular performer on the sitcom The Flying Nun playing Sister Sixto, a nun known mostly for mangling the English language; and she continued in television guest roles until securing a recurring role in the soap opera General Hospital in 1982.

Context: Shelley Morrison (født Rachel Mitrani; 26. oktober 1936) er en amerikansk skuespillerinde. Tidligt i sin karriere blev hun nogle gange krediteret som Rachel Domínguez. Morrison har været teater- og tv-skuespillerinde siden begyndelsen af 1960'erne, fortrinsvis som karakterskuespillerinde i etniske roller. Hendes mest genkendelige rolle har været som tjenestepigen Rosario Salazar i NBC's komedie-tv-serie Will & Grace, som hun spillede fra 1999 til 2006. Hun var en fast medvirkende i sitcom-serien The Flying Nun, hvor hun spillede Sister Sixto, en nonne, der mest var kendt for at mangle det engelske sprog, og hun fortsatte med gæstespil på tv, indtil hun fik en tilbagevendende rolle i sæbeoperaen General Hospital i 1982.


Question: Betydningen af you ain't going nowhere tekster?

Starting in June 1967 and ending in October 1967, Bob Dylan's writing and recording sessions with the Band (then known as the Hawks) in Woodstock, New York, were the source of many new songs that were circulated as demos by Dylan's publisher for fellow artists to record. "You Ain't Goin' Nowhere" was written and recorded during this period and features lyrics that allude to the singer waiting for his bride to arrive and possibly, a final premarital fling. The original version found on 1975's The Basement Tapes album was recorded with the Band (minus Levon Helm who had temporarily left the group at this point) in the basement of their house in West Saugerties, New York, called "Big Pink". A first take recorded during the Basement Tapes sessions includes improvised nonsense lyrics such as "Just pick up that oil cloth, cram it in the corn / I don't care if your name is Michael / You're gonna need some boards / Get your lunch, you foreign bib". This alternate take was released in 2014 on The Bootleg Series Vol. 11: The Basement Tapes Complete.

Context: Bob Dylans skrive- og indspilningssessioner med bandet (dengang kendt som Hawks) i Woodstock, New York, fra juni 1967 til oktober 1967, var kilden til mange nye sange, som Dylans forlægger sendte rundt som demoer til andre kunstnere, som de kunne indspille. "You Ain't Goin' Nowhere" blev skrevet og indspillet i denne periode og indeholder en tekst, der hentyder til, at sangeren venter på sin brud og muligvis på en sidste affære før ægteskabet. Den originale version, der findes på albummet The Basement Tapes fra 1975, blev indspillet med bandet (minus Levon Helm, der midlertidigt havde forladt gruppen på dette tidspunkt) i kælderen i deres hus i West Saugerties, New York, kaldet "Big Pink". Et første take optaget under Basement Tapes-sessionerne indeholder improviserede nonsens-tekster som "Just pick up that oil cloth, cram it in the corn / I don't care if your name is Michael / You're gonna need some boards / Get your lunch, you foreign bib". Dette alternative take blev udgivet i 2014 på The Bootleg Series Vol. 11: The Basement Tapes Complete.

Question: Hvordan konserveres insekter eller små dyr i rav?

Amber sometimes contains animals or plant matter that became caught in the resin as it was secreted. Insects, spiders and even their webs, annelids, frogs, crustaceans, bacteria and amoebae, marine microfossils, wood, flowers and fruit, hair, feathers and other small organisms have been recovered in Cretaceous ambers (deposited c. 130 million years ago). The oldest amber to bear fossils (mites) is from the Carnian (Triassic, 230 million years ago) of north-eastern Italy.

Context:
Amber
Rav indeholder undertiden dyr eller plantemateriale, der er blevet fanget i harpiksen, da den blev udskilt. Insekter, edderkopper og endda deres net, annelider, frøer, krebsdyr, bakterier og amøber, marine mikrofossiler, træ, blomster og frugter, hår, fjer og andre små organismer er blevet fundet i ambra fra kridttiden (aflejret for ca. 130 millioner år siden). Det ældste rav med fossiler (mider) stammer fra Karnian (Trias, 230 millioner år siden) i det nordøstlige Italien.


Question: Den første demokratiske præsident siden begyndelsen af borgerkrigen kæmpede?

Answer: Grover Cleveland

Stephen Grover Cleveland (March 18, 1837 – June 24, 1908) was an American politician and lawyer who was the 22nd and 24th President of the United States, the only president in American history to serve two non-consecutive terms in office (1885–1889 and 1893–1897). He won the popular vote for three presidential elections—in 1884, 1888, and 1892—and was one of two Democrats (with Woodrow Wilson) to be elected president during the era of Republican political domination dating from 1861 to 1933.

Context: Stephen Grover Cleveland (18. marts 1837 - 24. juni 1908) var en amerikansk politiker og advokat, der var USA's 22. og 24. præsident og den eneste præsident i USA's historie, der sad i to perioder i træk (1885-1889 og 1893-1897). Han vandt de folkelige stemmer ved tre præsidentvalg - i 1884, 1888 og 1892 - og var en af to demokrater (sammen med Woodrow Wilson), der blev valgt til præsident i den periode med republikansk politisk dominans, der gik fra 1861 til 1933.

Question: Kan stole på for at skabe et overskud krydsord?

Crossword
The compensation structure of crosswords generally entails authors selling all rights to their puzzles upon publication, and as a result receiving no royalties from republication of their work in books or other forms. This system has been criticized by American Values Club crossword editor Ben Tausig, among others.

Context:
Crossword
Kompensationsstrukturen for krydsord indebærer generelt, at forfatterne sælger alle rettigheder til deres gåder ved udgivelsen og derfor ikke modtager nogen royalties fra genudgivelse af deres arbejde i bøger eller andre former. Dette system er blevet kritiseret af bl.a. Ben Tausig, redaktør af krydsord i American Values Club.


Question: Hvad er konflikten mellem syd-og nordkorea?

The Korean conflict is based on the division between the Democratic People's Republic of Korea in the north and the Republic of Korea in the south, both of which claim to be the government of the whole country. During the Cold War, North Korea was backed by the Soviet Union, China, and other communist states, and South Korea was backed by the United States and its allies. The division of Korea occurred at the end of World War II in 1945. Tensions erupted into the Korean War in 1950.

Context:

Den koreanske konflikt er baseret på opdelingen mellem Den Demokratiske Folkerepublik Korea i nord og Republikken Korea i syd, som begge hævder at være hele landets regering. Under den kolde krig blev Nordkorea støttet af Sovjetunionen, Kina og andre kommunistiske stater, mens Sydkorea blev støttet af USA og dets allierede. Koreas deling fandt sted ved afslutningen af Anden Verdenskrig i 1945. Spændingerne brød ud i Korea-krigen i 1950.

Question: Hvad siger høre intet ondt se intet ondt tale intet ondt betyder?

Three wise monkeys
An ancient representation of the "no see, no hear, no say, no do" can be found in four golden figurines in the Zelnik Istvan Southeast Asian Gold Museum. These golden statues date from the 6th to 8th century. The figures look like tribal human people with not very precise body carvings and strong phallic symbols. This set indicates that the philosophy comes from very ancient roots.

Context:
Three wise monkeys
En gammel fremstilling af "no see, no hear, no say, no do" kan findes i fire gyldne figurer på Zelnik Istvan Southeast Asian Gold Museum. Disse gyldne statuer stammer fra det 6. til 8. århundrede. Figurerne ligner stammemennesker med ikke særlig præcise kropsudskæringer og stærke fallosymboler. Dette sæt viser, at filosofien har meget gamle rødder.

Question: Hvad er forskellen mellem watt og mets?

Exercise intensity
VO2 is measured in METs (mL/kg/min). One MET, which is equal to 3.5 ml/kg per minute, is considered to be the average resting energy expenditure of a typical human being. Intensity of exercise can be expressed as multiples of resting energy expenditure. An intensity of exercise equivalent to 6 METs means that the energy expenditure of the exercise is six times the resting energy expenditure.

Context:
Exercise intensity
VO2 måles i METs (mL/kg/min). En MET, som svarer til 3,5 ml/kg pr. minut, anses for at være det gennemsnitlige energiforbrug i hvile for et typisk menneske. Træningsintensiteten kan udtrykkes som et multiplum af energiforbruget i hvile. En træningsintensitet svarende til 6 MET betyder, at træningens energiforbrug er seks gange så stort som energiforbruget i hvile.

Question: Indien vil holde sin første fælles flådeøvelse, med hvilken nation?

Answer: japan

Indian Armed Forces
India often conducts naval exercises with other friendly countries designed to increase naval interoperability and also to strengthen cooperative security relationships. Some exercises take place annually like: the Varuna with the French Navy, Konkan with the Royal Navy, Indra with Russian Navy, Malabar with the US and Japan navies, Simbex with the Republic of Singapore Navy and IBSAMAR with the Brasil and South African navies. In 2007, Indian Navy conducted naval exercise with the Japan Maritime Self-Defence Force and the U.S Navy in the Pacific and also signed an agreement with Japan in October 2008 for joint naval patrolling in the Asia-Pacific region. India has also held naval exercise with Vietnam, the Philippines and New Zealand. In 2007, India and South Korea decided to conduct annual naval exercises and India participated in the South Korean international fleet review. In addition, the Indian Navy will also be increasing naval co-operation with other allies, particularly with Germany, and Arab states of the Persian Gulf including Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. Indian Navy also took part in the world's largest naval exercise/war-game RIMPAC 2014 along with 22 other nations and has since taken part in RIMPAC each year.

Context:
Indian Armed Forces
Indien gennemfører ofte søfartsøvelser med andre venskabelige lande med det formål at øge søværnets interoperabilitet og styrke samarbejdet om sikkerhedsforbindelser. Nogle øvelser finder sted hvert år, f.eks. Varuna med den franske flåde, Konkan med den kongelige flåde, Indra med den russiske flåde, Malabar med den amerikanske og japanske flåde, Simbex med Republikken Singapores flåde og IBSAMAR med Brasiliens og Sydafrikas flåde. I 2007 gennemførte den indiske flåde søøvelser med Japans maritime selvforsvarsstyrke og USA's flåde i Stillehavet og underskrev også en aftale med Japan i oktober 2008 om fælles søpatruljering i Asien-Stillehavsområdet. Indien har også afholdt flådeøvelser med Vietnam, Filippinerne og New Zealand. I 2007 besluttede Indien og Sydkorea at gennemføre årlige flådeøvelser, og Indien deltog i Sydkoreas internationale flådevurdering. Desuden vil den indiske flåde også øge flådesamarbejdet med andre allierede, især med Tyskland, og de arabiske stater i Den Persiske Golf, herunder Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain og Saudi-Arabien. Den indiske flåde deltog også i verdens største flådeøvelse/krigsspil RIMPAC 2014 sammen med 22 andre nationer og har siden da deltaget i RIMPAC hvert år.


Question: Nation, at rusland engang var en del af?

Answer: Sovjetunionen

Post-Soviet states
The post-Soviet states, also collectively known as the former Soviet Union (FSU) or former Soviet Republics, are the 15 independent states that emerged from the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics in its dissolution in December 1991, with Russia internationally recognised as the successor state to the Soviet Union. On March 11, 1990, Lithuania was the first to declare its independence, with Estonia and Latvia following suit in August 1991. All three Baltic states claimed continuity from the original states that existed prior to their annexation by the Soviet Union in 1944 and were admitted to the United Nations on 17 September 1991. The remaining 12 republics all subsequently seceded. 12 of the 15 states, excluding the Baltic states, initially formed the CIS and most joined CSTO, while the Baltic states focused on European Union and NATO membership.

Context:
Post-Soviet states
De post-sovjetiske stater, også kollektivt kendt som det tidligere Sovjetunionen (FSU) eller de tidligere sovjetrepublikker, er de 15 uafhængige stater, der udsprang af Unionen af Socialistiske Sovjetrepublikker i forbindelse med dens opløsning i december 1991, hvor Rusland internationalt blev anerkendt som Sovjetunionens efterfølgerstat. Den 11. marts 1990 var Litauen den første til at erklære sin uafhængighed, og Estland og Letland fulgte efter i august 1991. Alle tre baltiske stater hævdede, at de var en fortsættelse af de oprindelige stater, der eksisterede før deres annektering af Sovjetunionen i 1944, og de blev optaget i FN den 17. september 1991. De resterende 12 republikker udskilte sig alle efterfølgende. 12 af de 15 stater, undtagen de baltiske stater, dannede oprindeligt SNG og de fleste tilsluttede sig CSTO, mens de baltiske stater fokuserede på medlemskab af EU og NATO.
