The collective noun for ladybugs is "A loveliness"

In the 1916 VFL season, there were only 4 teams competing (due to WW 1). For this reason, all teams qualified for the finals.

Fitzroy finished bottom of the table and won the grand final, meaning they were simultaneously the best and worst team that season.

Josh Risdon scored 2 goals for Perth Glory in 153 appearances.

Both of the goals were the final and winning goal of the match, taking the score line from 2-2 to 3-2.

DYK : The Grateful Dead are over-rated.

The Grateful Dead was an American rock band formed in 1965 in the San Francisco Bay Area.[1] The band was known for its unique and eclectic style, which fused elements of rock, folk, bluegrass, blues, reggae, country, jazz, psychedelia, and space rock[2][3]—and for live performances of long musical improvisation.[1][4] "Their music," writes Lenny Kaye, "touches on ground that most other groups don't even know exists."[5]

Jeff Foxworthy is one of the most respected and successful comedians in the country. He is the largest selling comedy-recording artist in history, a multiple Grammy Award nominee and best selling author of more than 26 books. Widely known for his redneck jokes, his act goes well beyond that to explore the humor in everyday family interactions and human nature, a style that has been compared to Mark Twain's.

In HSC physics a couple of years ago, we did medical physics as our option topic. I must say that it was a very interesting topic to do and we learnt this sort of stuff.

MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scanners utilise powerful cylindrical electromagnets to produce high-resolution images of people's bodies. due to the strength of the magnetic fields, patients with certain metal products in their body (most notably pacemakers) are not able to have MRI scans.

hence why a patient in my hospital was prevented from having his scan yesterday until medical staff could ascertain the composition of his penile implant.

Football Club Internazionale Milano, commonly referred to as Internazionale or Inter, is an Italian professional football club based in Milan, Lombardy. They are the current champions of the Italian Serie A, having retained their crown for the fourth successive season on 16 May 2009.

Inter hold the distinction of being the only side in Italian football to have never been relegated to a lower division.

The club was founded on 9 March 1908 as Football Club Internazionale Milano, following a "schism" from the Milan Cricket and Football Club (43 members). A group of Italians and Swiss were unhappy about the domination of Italians in the AC Milan team, and broke away from them, leading to the creation of Internazionale. From the beginning, the club was open to foreign players and thus lived up to its founding name.


In 1922 Inter were in Group B of the Serie A and came in last place after picking up only 11 points in the season. The last place team of each group was to be automatically relegated. The second last place teams were placed in a pre-relegation 'salvation' tournament. Inter and La Gazzetta dello Sport editor (Colombo) petitioned the FIGC to allow Inter to participate in Serie A the following year as a year in Serie B would have been financially detrimental. The FIGC saved Inter some weeks prior to the season starting by allowing them to remain in Serie A in 1923.

The first instance of global electronic communications took place in 1871 when news of the Derby winner was telegraphed from London to Calcutta in under 5 minutes.

In 1898, one of the first programmes to be broadcasted on radio was a yacht race that took place in British waters.

Sports command the biggest television audiences, led by the summer Olympics, World Cup Football and Formula One racing.

Gymnasiums were introduced in 900BC and Greek athletes practised in the nude to the accompaniment of music. They also performed naked at the Olympic Games.

The very first Olympic race, held in 776 BC, was won by Corubus, a chef.
