Do you people have enough search engine skills to win my competition? Then try it! I just need competitors! Once I get up to five people in then I'll start. Anyone can join in after wards.

I'm game. Don't think I'll win, but it'd be fun at least.

These people created the search engine and were nominated for the Persons of the Year Award. Who are they?

give me the site you got it from and who they were.

No that's not what I'm looking for. These people did make a very famous search engine, but it's not Alta Vista. They were next to Darth Vader this year. Try again

HInt: it's 7 years old and they are both 32 years of age

Quantum dots are small devices that contain a tiny droplet of free electrons. They are fabricated in semiconductor materials and have typical dimensions between nanometres to a few microns. The size and shape of these structures and therefore the number of electrons they contain, can be precisely controlled; a quantum dot can have anything from a single electron to a collection of several thousands. The physics of quantum dots shows many parallels with the behaviour of naturally occurring quantum systems in atomic and nuclear physics. As in an atom, the energy levels in a quantum dot become quantized due to the confinement of electrons. Unlike atoms however, quantum dots can be easily connected to electrodes and are therefore excellent tools to study atomic-like properties. There is a wealth of interesting phenomena that have been measured in quantum dot structures over the past decade.

Each dot is about 20 nanometers wide and 8 nanometers in height.

Leader: Drizzt

find the translation and the language to these lyrics. Along with the song title, and what album it came from. For and extra 2 points you can give me the singer and composer.

Ohla o céo tão lindo
Cheio de estrelas
Cheio de sonhos da gente
Que espera paz

Em coraçãos da toda gente
H· estrelas lindas assim
Que iluminam carinhosamente
São as estrelas do amor

Vem mais perto, menina
Ouça o meu violão
E a minha canção
Que canta beleza da noite

A gent esquece
Na correnteza da vida
As esperanças
E as coisas boas da vida

Vem mais perto, menina
Ouça o meu canção
Eu sou um cantador
Que canta esperança da vida

Translation of Estrelas (Stars) from Portugese to English.
Album: Final Fantasy Vocal Collection II [Love Will Grow]
Singer: Risa Ohki
Composer: Nobuo Uematsu

Look at the skies, so lovely
Full of stars
Full of the dreams of those
Who hope for peace

In the hearts of everyone
Are stars as beautiful as these
That shine kindly
These are the stars of love!

Come closer, little girl
Listen to my guitar
And to my song
Which sings of the beauty of night

To those who are lost
In the current of life
Go hopes
And the best things in life

Come closer, little girl
Listen to my song
I am a singer
Who sings of life's hopes

What is a Bundt Pan and where did it come from?

Elaborate on what it is used for...

A Bundt Pan is a pan developed in 1950 by H. David Dalquist, founder of Nordic Ware, at the request of members of the Hadassah Society's chapter in Minneapolis, Minnesota. They were interested in a pan that could be used to make kugel, a Jewish dessert. He modified some existing ceramic pan designs by introducing folds in the outer edge, and fashioned the pan out of aluminum.
