These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2012-02-13,
and should be interpreted accordingly.

On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.
Please post all your answers in a single followup to the newsgroup,
based only on your own knowledge. (In your answer posting, quote
the questions and place your answer below each one.) I will reveal
the correct answers in about 3 days.

All questions were written by members of Footloose and Firkin Free,
and are used here by permission, but have been reformatted and may
have been retyped and/or edited by me. For further information
see my 2012-05-10 companion posting on "Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (QFTCI*)".


* Game 4, Round 7 - Arts & Literature - Adult Magazines

No date for Valentine's Day? Well, just curl up on the couch
with your favourite adult magazine!

1. Within 1 year, in what year was the first edition of "Playboy"
magazine published?

2. Please decode the rot13 only after answering the previous
question. Jub tenprq gur pragresbyq bs gur svefg rqvgvba,
choyvfurq va Qrprzore bs avargrra svsgl-guerr?

3. Gene Simmons could tell you that this Newfie girl was
Playmate of the Month for November 1981. Who?

4. Name the daughter of "Playboy" founder Hugh Hefner who became
head of the "Playboy" empire in 1988, holding that position
until she stepped down in 2009. First name required if the
last name is Hefner.

5. Name the publisher of "Hustler" magazine who has fought
several prominent legal battles involving the First Amendment,
and has unsuccessfully run for public office.

6. Name the men's magazine founded in 1969 by Bob Guccione that
combines urban lifestyle articles and soft-core pornographic
pictorials that, in the 1990s, evolved into hard-core.

7. Name the 1979 US-produced Italian pornographic biographical
film, starring Malcolm McDowell and Peter O'Toole, that was
produced by Bob Guccione.

8. Born in Ladysmith, BC, in 1967, this Canadian girl has graced
more "Playboy" covers than any other person. Who?

9. It has been said that this adult magazine, first published
in 1973, may have a larger following among gay men than
among heterosexual women. Name it.

10. Although not an adult magazine, what publication received
huge publicity when Burt Reynolds appeared naked in their
April 1972 edition?


* Game 4, Round 8 - Geography - Connecting States

We give you the names of two US States and you provide the state
that borders both of them. For example, we say Washington and
California; you say Oregon.

Note: States meeting at a single point do *not* count as bordering.

1. Arkansas and Iowa.
2. South Carolina and Florida.
3. Vermont and Maine.
4. New York and Ohio.
5. Texas and Arizona
6. Louisiana and Alabama.
7. Nevada and Colorado.
8. North Dakota and Idaho.
9. Indiana and Tennessee.
10. Michigan and Minnesota.
