The show has a decades-long broadcast history in the United States since its creation by Merv Griffin in 1964. It first ran in the daytime on NBC from March 30, 1964 until January 3, 1975; concurrently ran in a weekly syndicated version from September 9, 1974 to September 5, 1975; and subsequently ran in a revival from October 2, 1978 to March 2, 1979. All of these versions were hosted by Art Fleming. Its most successful incarnation is the Alex Trebek hosted syndicated version, which has aired continuously since September 10, 1984, and has been adapted internationally.

The show is produced by Sony Pictures Television (the successor company to original producer Merv Griffin Enterprises, though the Griffin estate holds the copyright under dummy company Jeopardy Productions, Inc.), and is distributed by CBS Television Distribution (the successor to original distributor King World Productions).

Jeopardy! Desk Calendar: Jeopardy!? is the highest rated quiz show in the United States. Airing Monday-Friday, the show has gained a cult-like following among information buffs and game show fans.

Just like the hit TV show, the Jeopardy!? trivia quiz calendar also has a unique answer-and-question format. Each calendar week features Jeopardy! and Double Jeopardy! categories with assigned “dollar” amounts and a Final Jeopardy! round where players can wager all or part of their “winnings.” The answer is printed on the front of each page and the correct question is printed on the back.

Learning Yiddish helps you get in touch with the Eastern European Jewish tradition as well as perhaps your grandmother. But learning Yiddish isn’t just about being a proper Jew, it can be fun as well. These three desk calendars each teach a phrase a day, but their approach is very different. Have some fun learning Yiddish and getting in touch with your Jewish roots.

Jewish Yiddish Phrase-A-Day 2011 Desk Calendar

Buddhism desk calendars 2011

Calendars blog — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 15:31:40 +0000

With the popularity of Buddhism, it’s a bit surprising I was only able to find three Buddhist Desk Calendars. While elsewhere I did find other kinds of Buddhist calendars, these three do just what you want in a desk calendar: remind you of the wisdom of Buddhism AND help keep you up to date on where you are in the year.

Buddha Postcards 2011 Easel Desk Calendar $17.99

This weekly easel-backed desk calendar has 52 images of the Buddha with a weekly calendar grid at the top perforated to make 52 individual 6″ x 4 3/10″ postcards. The calendar grid is in four languages and includes phases of the moon.

The backer of this compact yet functional calendar includes an easel for display on a counter or desk and magnets that allow it to be attached to a metal surface. By Andrews McMeel

Zen Page-A-Day 2011 Desk Calendar $12.99

This is the least ‘Buddhist’ of the three desk calendars, but it’s perhaps the one you’ll end up buying. It will help you to open your eyes and mind anew every morning. Based on the bestselling book, the Zen Calendar features a daily koan, quote, parable, sutra, or poem filled with surprise, paradox, and infinite wisdom in very few words. The Zen of artists: “The simplest things give me ideas” (Joan MirÓ). The Zen of saints: “The most divine knowledge of God is that which is known by not knowing” (St. Denis).
