Last Post Answers: A. Germany The German federal election was held on 18th September 2005. Although Merkel's party had begun the campaign with a 21% lead over the main governing party in the opinion polls, the final result was so narrow that it was two months before coalition talks between the two largest parties could be finalised and Merkel confirmed as Germany's new chanceller. She is the first woman and the first citizen of the former East Germany to hold the post. Johnee Bee from Mostly Trivial asks you to leave a Review in iTunes if thats how you get this show.

Thu, 11 September 2008 Coral Reefs So facinating
The whimsical names of corals — bubble, staghorn, starburst, and brain — hint at their spectacular appearance, but not necessarily at their true value. As the largest living structures on the planet, coral reefs are also among the greatest storehouses of biodiversity on Earth. Coral reefs are also one of the most threatened marine systems. Scientists estimate that unless we take immediate action, we could lose up to 70 percent of coral reefs by 2050.

Sat, 23 August 2008 I'm not a Doctor, but I play one on T.V! T.V. Trivia
Syndication – this is the terminology rather broadly used to describe secondary programming usages (beyond the original run). It includes secondary runs in the country of first issue, but also international usage. In many cases other companies or TV stations that do the syndication work, in other words to sell the product into the markets they are allowed to sell into by contract from the copyright holders, in most cases the producers. Actors, if they are lucky and have a good contract, can make a TON of dough as well!
