Polar Bear

The **polar bear** (*Ursus maritimus*) is a hypercarnivorous bear whose native range lies largely within the Arctic Circle, encompassing the Arctic Ocean, its surrounding seas and surrounding land masses. It is the largest extant bear species, as well as the largest extant land carnivore. A boar (adult male) weighs around 350–700 kg (770–1,540 lb), while a sow (adult female) is about half that size. Although it is the sister species of the brown bear, it has evolved to occupy a narrower ecological niche, with many body characteristics adapted for cold temperatures, for moving across snow, ice and open water, and for hunting seals, which make up most of its diet. Although most polar bears are born on land, they spend most of their time on the sea ice. Their scientific name means "maritime bear" and derives from this fact. Polar bears hunt their preferred food of seals from the edge of sea ice, often living off fat reserves when no sea ice is present. Because of their dependence on the sea ice, polar bears are classified as marine mammals.

Because of expected habitat loss caused by climate change, the polar bear is classified as a vulnerable species. For decades, large-scale hunting raised international concern for the future of the species, but populations rebounded after controls and quotas began to take effect. For thousands of years, the polar bear has been a key figure in the material, spiritual, and cultural life of circumpolar peoples, and polar bears remain important in their cultures. Historically, the polar bear has also been known as the "white bear". It is sometimes referred to as the "nanook", based on the Inuit term *nanuq*.

Despite never appearing as the actual animal in *SpongeBob SquarePants*, sea bears are actually based on polar bears, despite having the head of a grizzly bear. All appearances of those animals are voiced by Frank Welker.
Feetface

**Feetface** was the on-air host of Noggin from April 2002 to April 2003. Feetface was succeeded by a duo of new hosts, Moose and Zee, who took over on April 7, 2003.

## Trivia

* Though not the first host of Noggin, Feetface was the first "official" host of the channel.
* Before *SpongeBob SquarePants* would begin, there would be a "Spot the Difference" game. In this segment, he would be seen interacting with SpongeBob and Gary (with Paul Winchell and Tom Kenny/Frank Welker reprising their roles, respectively), making this the only time Feetface ever interacted with at least one character from a show that aired on Noggin.
	+ This segment was directed by Winchell himself, Noel MacNeal, and Tim Lagasse, and SpongeBob and Gary were both animated by Ralph Bakshi.
* There have been reports of a sign-off version of the song "Things You Can Do." It remained a rumor, since it wasn't on any *SpongeBob SquarePants* VHS tapes between April 1, 2002 to April 6, 2003, until it was rediscovered on October 24, 2020. You can watch the video here.
	+ There is, however, an even rarer version that has SpongeBob and Gary on noggin.com with SpongeBob reminding the viewer that they can go to the website before bed. This time, SpongeBob and Gary were both animated by the animation crew from seasons 2—3 of *Dragon Tales*.
		- The reason why this is considered the rarer of the two is because it was only featured on the VHS Undersea Antics Volume 1 and never on television.

Fairview Cemetery

Fairview Cemetery was founded in 1869 by Mount Zion Baptist Church and Augusta Street United Methodist Church. In the mid-19th century the cemetery was located outside of the Staunton City limits in the heart of an African-American community named Sandy Hollow, one of several African-American communities in Augusta County. The cemetery is one of the few vestiges remaining of the Sandy Hollow community.

Fairview Cemetery was developed during two different time periods, the mid 1800's and the early 1900's. The 19th-century period can be identified in the landscape by randomly placed, unmarked graves, and mature vegetation. These characteristics are similar to those of a rural cemetery, illustrating patterns of Free Black and slave burial traditions. The portion of the cemetery developed after 1900 can be characterized as a typical park cemetery of its time. The cemetery as a whole represents changing patterns in gravestone styles.

The six-acre cemetery features mature vegetation, distinctive tombstones from the 19th and 20th centuries, and a panoramic view. The grounds also contain a bungalow-style house built around 1875 and two concrete equipment sheds. [*Description from findagrave.com -* Fairview Cemetery on findagrave.com]

### Facts

* Fairview Cemetery is the eighth largest cemetery in Augusta County, with 1,780+ memorials as of July, 2020.
Best Day Ever (marathon)

## *Best Day Ever*

The ***Best Day Ever* marathon** was a *SpongeBob SquarePants* marathon that aired during November 9, 2006. *The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie* television premiere occurred after the marathon. The episode "Best Day Ever" premiered during this event.

The event was hosted by Robin Williams, who counted down the 25 best episodes as voted by fans, and told facts and joke involving New York City while on a boat in the New York City harbor. During the top 10, Ralph Bakshi joined the event.

## Top 25

Of the 142 episodes that made it into the countdown, 117 did not make the cut. "Help Wanted/Reef Blower" was ranked #25 and "Shanghaied" was #1. The list is shown in the table below.
Hans

**Hans**is a character who appears in the theme song of SpongeBob SquarePants and some episodes. However, in the "It's a SpongeBob Christmas!" theme song, Hans is replaced with Santa Claus' hand. He is a human hand whose design comes from Peter Bennett. His name is a play on the word "hands." He first appears in the episode "Suds" and was voiced by Arte Johnson for his firt 2 appearances, Charles Nelson Reilly until 2007, and Tom Kenny afterwards.

## Description

Hans is a pinkish white hand, with the fingers folded together. His sleeve can be presumed as part of a naval jacket (which would make sense, considering the theme of the show). He has a german accent.

## History

In the current theme song of the show, he can be seen briefly, handing SpongeBob his pants.

### "Suds"

This episode marks Hans' first role in the series. He appears in cutscenes, where he uses SpongeBob and Patrick as cleaning tools. He uses SpongeBob to clean to cure him of his sickness, and he uses Patrick to clean as punishment for impersonating a doctor.

### "Imitation Krabs"

SpongeBob realizes how he chose the wrong Mr. Krabs, and goes out to retrieve the real one, which he had covered with tartar sauce and served with fries. However, upon exiting the Krusty Krab to retrieve him, he sees that Hans is trying to eat him with a fork. Mr. Krabs keeps him at bay with a fry until SpongeBob grabs the cart and wheels him in, with Hans disappearing into the sky.

### 炮台类武器

*炮台类武器*是一种能够召唤炮台的**召唤武器**。炮台具有独特的炮台召唤栏，并且它们会主动攻击附近的敌人，但是它们不会跟随玩家也不会移动。

## 无职业武器

这类武器通常会发射射弹并造成**无职业属性的伤害**。它们不受任何伤害增幅（如饰品）影响，也不能拥有修饰语。他们通常具有独特的用途，例如给敌怪施加独特的 debuff 来增加伤害输出等。

Bobby Gregory

**Bobby Gregory** (born **Robert Calvin Gregory**; April 24, 1900 - May 12, 1971) was an American songwriter, accordionist, composer, author and singer, a former cowboy, lumberjack, sailor, and circus and rodeo musician.

Gregory was a pioneer in radio broadcasting in the early 1920s and, in 1927, became the first country musician, and the first accordionist, to appear on television. Allegedly, he wrote an estimated 10,000 songs, some of which were among the most popular country music when released, others remain unpublished.

## Early Life

Gregory was born Robert Calvin Gregory to parents Charles Nicholas and Mary Ella Gregory in a home on Reservoir Street in Staunton, Virginia. He lived there until his parents were divorced when he was 13 years old. After their separation, some members of the family, including Gregory, moved to Nevada.

Despite moving at such a young age, Gregory never forgot Staunton. He found inspiration in his early writing from his memories of the railroad near his childhood home and the Shenandoah Valley.

## Career

During his early career, he toured with stage shows, rodeos and vaudeville circuits. Alongside his "Cactus Cowboy Band", Gregory recorded many songs and made eighteen motion pictures. He played the accordion in the film "The Vikings". Some notable musicians he and his band accompanied include Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, Smiley Burnette, the Lone Ranger and Big Slim, "The Lone Cowboy". He published 1,600 songs during his career and appeared in more than twenty movies.

In 1965, Gregory's song "Sunny Side of the Mountain" won an award from ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers).

## Personal Life

Gregory married Catherine Schwartz in New York in 1944.

In the 1950s, he opened an art gallery in New York City. He enjoyed painting and collecting art, accumulating pieces from throughout the world, including some from the Vatican. He wrote songs and painted all the way to his death. Several of his paintings were shown at the New York World's Fairy in 1965 and later the Peabody Museum in Nashville.

Gregory died May 12, 1971 in Nashville, Tennessee at Baptist Hospital, he was 71 years old. During the annual ASCAP Country Music Awards show in 1971, a memorial tribute was paid to him.

Frank Zappa

**Frank Vincent Zappa** (December 21, 1940 – December 4, 1993) was an American multi-instrumentalist musician, composer, and bandleader. His work is characterized by nonconformity, free-form improvisation, sound experiments, musical virtuosity, and satire of American culture. In a career spanning more than 30 years, Zappa composed rock, pop, jazz, jazz fusion, orchestral and *musique concrète* works, and produced almost all of the 60-plus albums that he released with his band the Mothers of Invention and as a solo artist. Zappa also directed feature-length films and music videos, and designed album covers. He is considered one of the most innovative and stylistically diverse rock musicians of his era.

In animation, he was the voice of the Pope in the 1992 *Ren & Stimpy* episode "Powdered Toast Man" and the mail carrier in the *SpongeBob SquarePants* episode "The Box of Imagination," which was his final, posthumous, and, in his opinion, greatest role of all time. He has since been known by fans as one of SpongeBob's "greatest guest stars ever" thanks to his reputation in the world of music, having appeared on many top 10 lists with other guests like Ernest Borgnine and Tim Conway, David Bowie, Junior Brown, David Glen Eisley, and even Rex Harrison.

## Roles

* Incidental 154 ("The Box of Imagination")

## Trivia

* When asked by Paul Winchell why he appeared on *Ren & Stimpy*, a show he despised, Zappa replied with "All I wanted was for kids to like me."

Overtime the episode would gain praise, and Zappa was soon a big name in the 2000's with the episode being nominated for an Emmy, mostly for his performance.
* During production, his best friends were Tim Lagasse and Noel MacNeal.
* Frank Zappa was born 18 years after Paul Winchell.

Toy Defenders

**Toy Defenders** is the first episode of the sixth season of *SpongeBob SquarePants*. In this episode, SpongeBob and Patrick take it upon themselves to defend a new toy store from the Octopus in the Beaver Hat.

This episode features two guest stars: David Letterman as the Toy Historian, and Rex Harrison as the Octopus in the Beaver Hat as usual.

## Synopsis

### Act 1

In his castle, the Octopus in the Beaver Hat is playing with his medieval playset, complete with a castle and a miniature remote-control dragon. Mzeebo comes in, and rather than be embarrassed, the Octopus welcomes him to the playset and offers to let him play as well, to which he agrees. After some medieval fun, the Octopus decides to make toys come to life in his scheme of genocidal world dominance, starting with his knights and remote-control dragon. Once brought to life, the Octopus leads the vulture and toys over to a yet-to-be-complete toy store named Barrel of Toys, and puts a spell on the toys to become evil during the night and do whatever *he* says.

Morning comes, and SpongeBob and Patrick are helping different citizens in Bikini Bottom to help raise money for Barrel of Toys, but also, as Patrick puts it, “[generosity] is more powerful than greed and selfishness could ever be.”

Terry Jones

**Terence Graham Parry Jones** (1 February 1942 – 21 January 2020) was a Welsh actor, comedian, director, historian, writer and member of the Monty Python comedy troupe.

After graduating from Oxford University with a degree in English, Jones and writing partner Michael Palin wrote and performed for several high-profile British comedy programmes, including *Do Not Adjust Your Set* and *The Frost Report*, before creating *Monty Python's Flying Circus* with Cambridge graduates Graham Chapman, John Cleese, and Eric Idle and American animator-filmmaker Terry Gilliam. Jones was largely responsible for the programme's innovative, surreal structure, in which sketches flowed from one to the next without the use of punch lines. He made his directorial debut with *Monty Python and the Holy Grail*, which he co-directed with Gilliam, and also directed the subsequent Python films *Life of Brian* and *The Meaning of Life*.

Jones co-created and co-wrote with Palin the anthology series *Ripping Yarns*. He also wrote an early draft of Jim Henson’s film *Labyrinth* and is credited with the screenplay, though little of his work actually remained in the final cut, and was among the original alumni of writers for Paul Winchell’s *SpongeBob SquarePants*. Jones was a well-respected medieval historian, having written several books and presented television documentaries about the period, as well as a prolific children's author. In 2016, Jones received a Lifetime Achievement award at the BAFTA Cymru Awards for his outstanding contribution to television and film. After living for several years with a degenerative aphasia, he gradually lost the ability to speak and died in 2020 from frontotemporal dementia.

Junior

**Junior** is a baby sea scallop who is raised and adopted by SpongeBob and Patrick in the episode "Rock-a-Bivalve." He later appears in the online game *SpongeBob Saves the Day!* He is voiced by Frank Welker.

## Description

Junior looks like any other scallop; he has a purple shell and a red tongue.

### Characteristics

Junior communicates through chirping like a songbird. He apparently hates Krabby Patties, even the tiny variety which are catered to babies like him. He also dislikes donuts and French fries. Instead, he likes to eat worms and ice cream with worms, referencing the common stereotype of birds eating worms. He also needs to have his diaper changed very often. Junior makes similar crying sounds to a young baby very frequently throughout the episode.

## Role in episode

Junior is found by SpongeBob and Patrick in a bush. SpongeBob discovers that Junior is still a baby and cannot fly. Since Junior has no family to take care of him, SpongeBob and Patrick become his adoptive "parents." He is mostly tended to by SpongeBob while the irresponsible Patrick neglects this.

This frustrates SpongeBob to no end, eventually leading up to an argument between them. However, they cease arguing after seeing Junior standing in the window, and try to save him, but do not make it. They get sad at failing Junior but discover he has learned to fly at the end of the episode.

Junior thanks SpongeBob for caring for him with a kiss, while he drops a coconut on Patrick's head but kisses him too and they watch Junior leave in adoration.

## Trivia

* It's unknown where or how Junior got the coconut he dropped on Patrick's head.
* Patrick almost severely injured Junior by threatening to swat him with a fly swatter as a solution to dealing with his helplessness, before SpongeBob talks him out of it.

## Role in episode

Potty introduces it when competing against Fearless Freddy, even though Fearless Freddy tells him arguing is pointless, to see if the future is cooler than the past. When Cavey goes to examine it, it starts attacking him and started to shoot lasers. This leads to Fearless Freddy getting angry at Potty for causing harm to the caveman. He later sings the song "When Worlds Collide" with Cavey the Caveman at the end of the episode.
