The Grand Slam tournaments are the four major professional tennis events that are organized annually: the Australian Open (late January - early February), the French Open (late May - early June), Wimbledon (late June - early July), and the US Open (late August - early September). The Australian and US Opens are played on hard courts, the French Open on clay, and Wimbledon on grass.

It is also possible to win all four championships consecutively, though not within the same calendar year - in which case the achievement is referred to as non-calendar-year Grand Slam.

From Quiz Compact Quiz, Mixed

Answer: Paris

Paris was in existence by the end of the 3rd century BC as a settlement on an island, the modern Ile de la Cite (though this is disputed because of lack of archaeological evidence), located in the Seine River and inhabited by a Gallic tribe known as the Parisii. The first recorded name for the settlement was Lutetia (from the Latin root of 'Lut' meaning swamp or mud). The Romans took the settlement by military force in 52BC and called the place Lutetia. They laid out the city radiating from the Ile de la Cite and parallel to the Seine. In the 5th century, during the end of the western Roman Empire coupled with the rise of the Merovingian dynasty, under Clovis I, the new capital was confirmed as Paris, the city of the Parisii. The nickname, City of Light (La Ville Lumière) came from the emergence of Paris as a world city in the "Age of Enlightenment" and/or because it was one of the first cities to have gas street lighting which started in 1829. By 1865, the streets of Paris were illuminated by 58,000 gas lamps.

From Quiz A Panoply of Trivia 1

Answer: Aging

Gerontology is a multidisciplinary study of aging and the effects of getting older. It involves the physical aspect of aging, like what happens to your body as the years go by, but also the cognitive aspect of how your mind changes, the psychology of aging, and, lately, the social and cultural aspects as well. Throughout history, many physicians have studied the effect of age on our bodies. Such diseases and ailments like Alzheimer's, dementia, Parkinson's, heart attacks and strokes have always been associated with the elderly, but medicine sought to find out why. With the advancement of medicine as well as the increased longevity of the world's population, the field of gerontology has grown in the past few decades.

From Quiz FunTrivia General Knowledge Mix: Vol 8

Answer: wind

Herman Wouk's "The Winds of War" was planned as a single large novel but was instead published in 1971 as the first half of a two-novel set completed in 1978 by "War and Remembrance." This is the story of the Jastrow and Henry families in the Second World War. The television version starred Robert Mitchum, Ali MacGraw, and Jan-Michael Vincent. Francis Beaufort (later Rear Admiral Francis Beaufort and Sir Francis Beaufort), invented and refined a scale which connects measured wind speed with the impact which it has on land and sea. His version was created in 1805, based on the work of others, and refined in the 1830s when adopted by (parts of) the Royal Navy. It remains in use, though not universally. The Greek god of the West wind is Zephyrus, the most gentle of the four winds, associated with springtime and the blooming of plants.
