  1. 1/5 - just Wicked, which was an instaget for me.
  2. I got the extra hint from Ken, so my personal rules say no :(
  3. 1/5 - just CN tower for me! I did figure out Atari after Ken said that Nintendo was close, but that doesn't count :P
  4. Not Juveria. Housing in Ontario is expensive. The average house price in Whitby, where Juveria lives, is nearly a million dollars - even converting USD to CAD, it doesn't come close. Not to say she can't afford a house at all - she is a physician and medical director - but not just using her Masters Tournament winnings. I would have loved for Juveria or Victoria to win - the two of them and Matt were my favourites at the start of the tournament, though I was definitely on the "anybody-but-Yogesh" train.
  5. 1/5, just James Bond and in the nick of time. Should have got manifest destiny, I just was blanking on the name.
  6. 0/5 this week :( should have got both Kissinger and the Julian calendar, but in both cases wasn't fast enough (for calendar, all I could think of was Gregorian and I knew that wasn't the right one).
  7. During Final Jeopardy, all I could do was hum "Fanfare for the Common Man". I could recall neither the name of that piece or the name of the composer, but I was certain its composer was the answer. I just needed more time to pull the details out of my brain.
  8. 1/5, just flintstones for me!
  9. 2/5 for me this week.
  10. Another 0/5 for me this week. I did know Rome, but couldnt come up with Eternal City in time.
  11. 0/5 this week, bummer.
  12. Today's Final Jeopardy answer was the Wailing Wall. The Lion of Lucerne came into my head first and would not leave. Wailing Wall was obvious once it was revealed, but I couldn't get there on my own.

    Wow, they didn't even put in a tiny bit of effort into understanding bone marrow transplants, did they? It's not a surgery like an organ transplant, and if you're too weak for chemo, you ain't getting a BMT, because step 1 of that process is chemo to kill all the cancer cells (and your own bone marrow in the process). Step 2 is the transplant itself - the marrow (either from yourself or a donor, depending on your type of cancer) is then given via IV. No surgery.
