Michael Palin: Around the World in 80 Days Around the World in 80 Days is a 7-part BBC television travel series first broadcast on BBC1 in 1989. It was presented by comedian and actor Michael Palin. The show was inspired by Jules Verne's classic novel "Around the World in Eighty Days", in which a character named Phileas Fogg accepts a wager to circumnavigate the globe in eighty days or less. Palin was given the same deadline, and not allowed to use aircraft, which did not exist in Jules Verne's time and would make completing the journey far too easy. He followed Phileas Fogg's route as closely as possible. Along the way he commented on the sights and cultures he encountered. Palin encountered several setbacks during his voyage, partly because he travelled with a five-person film crew, who are collectively named after Passepartout, Phileas Fogg's manservant.
Around the World in 80 Days (2004 film) Around the World in 80 Days is a 2004 American action-adventure comedy family film based on Jules Verne's novel of the same name. It stars Jackie Chan, Steve Coogan and Cécile de France. The film is set in 19th-century Britain and centers on Phileas Fogg (Steve Coogan), here reimagined as an eccentric inventor, and his efforts to circumnavigate the globe in 80 days. During the trip, he is accompanied by his Chinese valet, Passepartout (Jackie Chan). For comedic reasons, the film intentionally deviated wildly from the novel and included a number of anachronistic elements. With production costs of about $110 million and estimated marketing costs of $30 million, it earned $24 million at the U.S. box office and $72 million worldwide, making it a box office flop. It was Arnold Schwarzenegger's last film before he took a hiatus from acting to become Governor of California until 2010's "The Expendables".

Jules Verne Trophy The Jules Verne Trophy is a prize for the fastest circumnavigation of the world by any type of yacht with no restrictions on the size of the crew provided the vessel has registered with the organization and paid an entry fee. A vessel holding the Jules Verne trophy will not necessarily hold the absolute round the world record. The trophy was first awarded to the first yacht which sailed around the world in less than 80 days. The name of the award is a reference to the Jules Verne novel "Around the World in Eighty Days" in which Phileas Fogg traverses the planet (albeit by railroad and steamboat) in 80 days. The current holder is "IDEC Sport" skippered by Francis Joyon in 40 days 23 hours 30 minutes 30 seconds.

Its fossils have been found in Chad, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia.

Monkeypox virus Monkeypox virus (MPV) is a double-stranded DNA, zoonotic virus and a species of the genus "Orthopoxvirus" in the family Poxviridae. It is one of the human orthopoxviruses that includes variola (VARV), cowpox (CPX), and vaccinia (VACV) viruses. But it is not a direct ancestor to, nor a direct descendent of, the variola virus which causes smallpox.

He was descended from Caecus via the first Appius Claudius Pulcher, who was consul in 212 BC and Caecus's great-grandson.

Australopithecus afarensis Australopithecus afarensis (Latin: "Southern ape from Afar") is an extinct hominin that lived between 3.9 and 2.9 million years ago. "A. afarensis" was slenderly built, like the younger "Australopithecus africanus". "A. afarensis" is thought to be more closely related to the genus "Homo" (which includes the modern human species "Homo sapiens"), whether as a direct ancestor or a close relative of an unknown ancestor, than any other known primate from the same time. Some researchers include "A. afarensis" in the genus "Praeanthropus".
Janet Doub Erickson Janet Ann Doub spent her early years in Boonsboro, Maryland, on farmland her father’s ancestors had settled in the eighteenth century and subsequently farmed continuously. She moved to New England in the nineteen thirties to be closer to her mother’s family, who were descended from New England's earliest pioneers. One direct ancestor, the aristocratic Henry Sherburne of Portsmouth, New Hampshire numbered among New Hampshire's first English settlers, arriving there in 1632, a little more than a decade after the Mayflower landed on Cape Cod. Sherburne and his descendants settled New England and beyond as the frontier moved west. Another maternal ancestor was Thomas Wiggin, the first governor of the province of New Hampshire. Mid-Atlantic, her father's Maryland forebears were the pioneering German Palatine Doub (family), active in Western Maryland before and after American independence from England. These pietist Doubs were early and active members of the Church of the United Brethren in Christ. This conservative Trinitarian church claims to be the first Christian denomination founded in America and from its early days took a strong stand against slavery.

The hominin remains are believed to be a human ancestor species and possibly the direct ancestor to the human genus, "Homo".
Ashte kashte Ashta-kashte is a race board game from Bengal akin to the Cross and Circle family for two to four players originating in India.

It is similar to Ashtam changam pe where there is a 5-by-5 grid on the board.
