Movie of the Week Identification
This movie aired on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. I can't be sure of this, but as I type this out, I feel fairly certain of the air time. It would have been 20-26 years ago (again, I can't be sure, but I'm convinced it was on ABC.) The only scene I remember is a flood, and there was a cougar on the banks. It's possible an entire house was floating down this flood-swollen river at the time. Thanks in advance, Taggart.BBS (talk) 11:37, 3 February 2010 (UTC)


 * A house floating down a flood-swollen river brings Huckleberry Finn to mind. There was indeed an ABC movie of the week of Twain's novel in your time range, a loose adaptation entitled The Adventures of Con Sawyer and Hucklemary Finn (1985), with Drew Barrymore as Con Sawyer. I didn't see it and don't know if the scenes you remember were in it. There may have been other Huck Finn adaptations during your time period, if indeed what you remember was Huck Finn but not this particular adaptation. —Kevin Myers 14:02, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

NCAA Lacrosse
What is the name of the Division 1 Championship Trophy?98.25.191.11 (talk) 15:43, 3 February 2010 (UTC)


 * According to NCAA Men's Lacrosse Championship, it used to be the Wingate Memorial Trophy which has been since retired. The champions now just receive the standard NCAA championship plaque.  See this image.  All NCAA sports champions receive this plaque; the only difference being the inscription on it which identifies the sport, the division, the year, and the team that won it.  -- Jayron  32  16:06, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Hitler movie clips on YouTube
What film is the clip with someone portraying Hitler and all the (un)amusing sub-titles taken from? Here is an example. Thanks, Dismas |(talk) 18:05, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
