LVHRD - "Science vs. Beauty: Battle of the Minds"
On Monday night, March 14, 2005, The LVHRD Foundation challenged Science and Beauty
to compete in a Battle of the Minds on the gameshow stage of
M1-5 in Tribeca. Scientists
Ashok Chander, JR Minkel, and Noah
Raizman stood across the podium from Double
Agent Models, "Kerry," "Amber," and "Doubleagent" while MC Lefty
Liebowitz dazzled the entusiastic crowd. After a series of Family
FeudŽ style questions, an odor test, Mensa trivia challenges for
the audience, and a round of "Name that Tune," the scientists emerged
victorious by a narrow margin of 65 with a final score of 930 points.
