Question: Robert Cook published an influential work on this figure and her children. Born at Mount Sipylus to a certain Lydian king and the goddess Dione, she was the sister of Broteas. She is represented in the third movement of Britten's Six Metamorphoses after Ovid, and her tears are mentioned in Hamlet's Act 1 soliloquy. Chloris, Ogygia, Phaedimus, Eudoxa and Damisichthon were some of her numerous children, whose father was Amphion. In one version of the myth, she is the daughter of Assaon, who burned all her children to death after she refused to commit incest with him. The sister of Pelops and daughter of Tantalus, for 10 points, name this grieving figure turned into a rock after watching Apollo and Artemis slaughter her 14 children.

Answer: Social Science


Question: The yield of these compounds can be increased through ball milling of some of their components, and one mode of operation of these compounds proceeds through a mechanism called enantiomorphic site control. A process for the operation of these compounds that proceeds through migratory insertions and obeys the "principle of least nuclear motions" was developed by Cossee and Arlman. Compounds such bis(cyclopentadienyl)titanium chloride and bis(indenyl)zirconium dichloride, known as metallocenes, have been developed as an alternative to the traditional compounds of this type. Those traditional initiators include vanadium trichloride and triethylaluminum, and the product of the application of these compounds to alkenes can result in syndiotactic, isotactic, or atactic products. For ten points, identify these stereoselective compounds used to initiate polymerization, named for a German and an Italian chemist.

Answer: Science


Question: of these was found to repair lacZ transcripts in E coli, and that trans-splicing one was also used to correct mutated p53 transcripts. One of these contains loops A and B and helices H1 through H4, and is useful in the formation of a 2,3-cyclic phosphate. That example, originally found in the tobacco ringspot virus, is called the Hairpin one, and in that virus the same gene codes for one of these important in the replication of some viroids. Another example is found in the Hepatitis delta virus. Discoveries about the activity of these in cleaving and splicing nucleic acids led to the 1989 Nobel in Chemistry for Sidney Altman and Thomas Cech. For 10 points, name this type of nucleic acid including the Hammerhead one which can catalyze a reaction.
