2. The Nuremberg Laws were the legal basis for the anti-Jewish policy in Nazi Germany. There were several additional addendums to these laws during next few years. These laws contained the first definition of a Jew and an Aryan. They were also called the Reich Citizenship Law. These laws took all political rights away from the Jews rendering them as state subjects. They made marriage between a Jew and a German unlawful. No sexual relations were allowed at all between a Jew and a German. Thank you William L. Shirer and Prof. Chuck Manoli.

4. Joe Schmidt: Detroit Lions and middle linebacker

6. The part where caring resides. Richard Kuklinski, the Iceman, submitted to several psychological interviews. During one he was asked what was missing in him. He responded “the caring thing.”

7. Meg Tilly – The Big Chill; Jennifer Tilly – Bullets over Broadway

11. “Hell is other people” is a line from Sartre’s play “No Exit.”

13. Nigeria

6..Prefrontal lobe?

8..Lady Gaga

11..Hell is other people

1..Now, Bama, we leave the rest to imagination.

2..Game & SVC, with the latter providing fine detail.

3..Heavy is on my wavelength.

4..Heavy & SVC pinpoint him as MIDDLE linebacker, eventually becoming head coach.

5..Meyers is hint-oriented here.

6..Bama cites the amygdala, its smaller size, coupled with an abusive childhood, is telling.

7..We've got Big & three, but Cajun needs less SLEEP and to CHILL.

8..The Bama Quartet are all Gaga over this question. Think she may be a paisan?

9..Bama is 50%--Ukraine and Belarus.

10..Heavy and Bama give us Japan.

11..We'll let heavy lead a large contingent, since he provides the original language.

12..Ruba dub dub
Got 3 posters in a tub.

13..South Africa
