[EX Q]: Question: Who did Bruce Herschenohn run against in his primary? Passage:In 1992 four-term incumbent Democratic Senator Alan Cranston retired, creating an open seat contest. In what was billed as the "Year of the Woman", Boxer beat fellow Rep. Mel Levine and Lieutenant Governor Leo McCarthy in the Democratic primary, winning 44% of the vote. In the general election, Boxer defeated Republican Bruce Herschensohn, a conservative television political commentator from Los Angeles, by 4.9%. A last-minute revelation that Herschensohn had attended a strip club at least partially affected the outcome. In 1998, she won a second term, beating sitting California State Treasurer Matt Fong by 10.1% of the vote. After facing no primary opposition in the 2004 election, Boxer defeated GOP candidate Bill Jones, the former California Secretary of State, by 20%. In 2010, Boxer defeated GOP candidate Carly Fiorina, former chief executive officer of Hewlett-Packard, by 10%.

During the offseason, the Nuggets acquired Nick Van Exel from the Los Angeles Lakers, and second-year guard Chauncey Billups from the Toronto Raptors. Despite the return of Antonio McDyess, who was re-signed by the team after one season with the Phoenix Suns, the Nuggets continued to struggle under new head coach Mike D'Antoni losing eight of their first nine games. Top draft pick Raef LaFrentz out of Kansas was out for the remainder of the season with a knee injury after playing just twelve games. The Nuggets finished the lockout shortened season sixth in the Midwest Division with a 1436 record. This was also their final season playing at McNichols Sports Arena.

[EX Q]: Question: How many members were on the low court when they met in Pieterlen? Passage:The Vorem Holz 3 archeological site contains the remains of a Bronze Age settlement in the Pieterlen municipality. A first- to third-century Roman estate has also been discovered. During the Middle Ages there were several settlements in the modern municipal borders. A medieval bath house was found at Thurliweg. The early medieval Totenweg cemetery served two different settlements during the 7th-8th centuries. A medieval fortification at Grauschenhubel has also been discovered. During the Late Middle Ages the village was mentioned as the personal property of the Lords of Pieterlan. By the end of the 13th century, the village passed through the hands of a number of nobles before ending up under the Prince-Bishop of Basel. Under the Prince-Bishops the village was combined with Romont, Reiben (now part of Buren an der Aare and Meinisberg) to form the southern-most ecclesiastical district of the Erguel seigniory. The low court met in Pieterlen while the high court was in Reiben and was held on the bridge over the Aare river. Militarily it was part of the banner of Biel.
