Lets stay with the Hollywood theme for another question....
Legend has it that this modern tradition began in 1927 when movie star Norma Talmadge accidentally stepped in something. What is the tradition?

She stepped in wet cement at the new Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood starting the tradition of having movie stars leave the imprint of their feet in the courtyard of the theater.

Clemens was a licensed river boat pilot on the Mississippi. The penname is taken from the call 'Mark twain!' – meaning by the mark of two fathoms used when sounding river shallows. But this isn't the full story: he had also satirized an older writer, Isaiah Sellers, who also called himself Mark Twain.

Dimpled balls fly farther than non-dimpled balls due to the combination of two effects:
Firstly, the dimples delay separation of the boundary layer from the ball. Early separation, as seen on a smooth sphere, causes significant wake turbulence, the principal cause of drag. The separation delay caused by the dimples therefore reduces this wake turbulence, and hence the drag.
Secondly, backspin generates lift by deforming the airflow around the ball, in a similar manner to an airplane wing. This is called the Magnus effect.

In 1960, the citizens of Hot Springs, New Mexico, voted to rename their town in honor of a popular radio show. What is the town now called?

A: Truth or Consequences--known as T or C for short. The change was made after radio (and later TV) show host Ralph Edwards promised to hold a program there annually.
