Conference Jeopardy - October 2012

One of our family traditions is to have Conference Jeopardy for FHE the day after general conference.  Since everyone's grown up now and on their own, we'll have to do a long-distance version.  I hope the formatting turns out okay.  And the answers will be in another post (below this one).  Have fun!
