The first to correctly answer one of the question bellow will get a free copy of Dota 2. Each question gives a copy.

1 (CLAIMED): A famous progressive rock member of the band Genesis inspired the creation of a character in a Bioware game. What's the name of the band member, the character from the game and from what game?

2 (CLAIMED): What was the main inspiration for the Storm Corrosion project that Steven Wilson and Opeth's leader, Mikael Åkerfeldt, worked on this year?

3 (CLAIMED): What company still makes electrostatic headphones and what's their flagship product?

4 (CLAIMED): What company made the first four balanced armature in-ear monitor (IEM) focused on audiophiles and what model was it?

5 (CLAIMED): Explain the nitrogen distilling process used to quantify nitrogen in a sample, used in many laboratories.

Good luck and have fun :)

So you can make 99.1% pure Blue Sky. I think we can do some business.

Wrong, that's an industrial process, not a process used to quantify nitrogen in a laboratory.

2) It’s not going to be until next year. I’m in no rush because there’s a lot of promotion still to be done for Grace for Drowning in terms of getting the record to people who haven’t discovered it. We’ll be touring it for the next six months at least. We’re also going to film a Blu-Ray DVD on the next tour to document the current repertoire and lineup. I’m writing with recording in mind for late summer or autumn, with a view to releasing the album in Spring 2013. So, it’s still a long way off. I’m a great believer that when you feel inspired, you should take advantage of the opportunity. I know some people think I’m an endless supply of music, but I’m not. I go through periods when I have nothing coming out and nothing to say. Right now, I feel inspired, so I’m striking while the iron is hot

I was thinking about music but Hammer Horror Series and Asian Horrors like 'The Grudge' and 'Ringu' was a great inspiration for them :D

I'm gonna give you guys a hint. It's a process used to quantify nitrogen in a sample that contains it in the form of nitrates, proteins and ammonium. You add a catalyst to the sample and you acidify it with sulfuric acid, to form a sulfuric salt with the catalyst. That's all I'm saying, explain the rest of the process.

IF you still have it

Take a sample that you want to find the nitrogen content

boil the homogeneous sample in concentrated sulfuric acid yielding an ammonium sulfate solution. Then add excess base to convert Ammonium to Ammonia. You then boil out the Ammonia using a distillation unit, and capture the NH3 gas. You then use titration to quantify the amount of nitrogen in the final solution by adding a weak acid and an indicator.
