World War II started in 1 September 1939 with the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany. V-E Day (Victory in Europe Day) was celebrated on 8 May 1945, when the German military surrendered in Berlin. V-J Day (Victory over Japan Day) was celebrated on 2 September 1945 when the Japanese signed the surrender document aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay.

“Entrée” means “entry” in French. An entrée can be something that helps one get “a way in”, an interview for example perhaps helped along by a recommendation letter. In Europe, even in English-speaking countries, the entrée is the name for the “entry” to the meal, the first course. I found the ordering of meals to be very confusing when I first came to America!

My only complaint, really is with ANACONDA being clued as "Montana county seat named for a nonnative creature." The town is named for the Anaconda Mining Company which opened its first mine there and then the town grew up around it. The mining company is named after the South American snake but is actually a reference/tribute to the Union Army during the Civil War.

Actually, Rex, applying the term “wire” to old non-cable, non-satellite TVs is a stretch. (Rabbit ears and roof antennas were not made of “wire.”) It is more appropriately applied to an even earlier era, to radios, to be precise, from the 1920s, 30s and 40s, when long wires, usually strung outdoors between buildings, were used as antennas on those big ol’ Amos and Andy floor models.

Rex, did you ever have a stereo with a flimsy T-shaped wire FM antenna that you taped to the wall or draped across the stereo? Something like this? That"s what I thought of.

I cruised on this one, due in no small part to the number of long clues that I knew with no context at all DANROWAN, INDIANS, CHARLESDEGAULLE, and, showing my new Hampshire pride, TSONGAS. I also magically came up with NAILHOLE and DULLARDS from just two crosses, which surprised me.

I wanted DANROWAN to be DANRATHER, which of course doesn"t fit, since the clue sort of fits with the stupid phrases Mr. Rather came up with all the time.

Just in case Rex was mistaken, J.S. Sargent was an American though he spent a lot of time in Europe. When I was trying to learn to paint, I chose Sargent and Manet as the best examples for emulation. Totally absorbing exercise trying to copy their portraits of remote, yet accessible women.

This must have been an easy Friday puzzle, because I finished in an under an hour for the first time ever, which obliterates any previous Friday record. However, I got the same letter wrong as you did, Rex. I couldn"t stop reading tier as the word pronounced "teer," and in fact I didn"t get that it was tie-er until I read your blog. So I had "tnine," thinking a large tier in some famous stadium I didn"t know might be known as t-nine, as in tier nine. Talk about over-thinking a clue!

if you happen to own a portable music player with an fm radio (ie, not an ipod), then you use a device whose antenna is a WIRE -- the headphone wire, to be exact.

Not a big fan of the [Hendrix] clue for AFRO but I guess if you think about it, the constructor picked a good representative of someone with an afro. And confusing it with Hendrix"s other style, it at least wasn"t a gimme. OK, maybe I"m more a fan of the clue now!

Pretty easy for me too, the top half fell in place in minutes, and finished the whole puzzle between getting my seat and wheels leaving the ground. Thought about "rubbers" for a matching accessory but realized the clue was not plural and rain hat came right after.

I loved this puzzle. Everything about it...its low word count and chunks of 6-10 letter words instead of those brutal 15-letter ones in the usual Friday... and the fact that I finished it in record time for me. There were a lot of clues I didn"t know on the first pass which amused me and gave me something to look forward to in uncovering the answers via crosses (e.g. teasets, dossier, charlesdegaulle). I liked the Jimi Hendrix misdirection. And I had no idea Asta was a schnauzer. Great dogs.

I"m thoroughly impressed at your under-10 time. It too me 10 minutes to get 3 words....using the internet for help. I"m 20 years old, just saw Word Play (great movie) and started doing crosswords. Perhaps one day I"ll be the 166th Greatest Crossword Puzzle Solver in the Universe!

I was doing this puzzle while cleaning, so taking one clue away and thinking about it until I had the perfect answer, so the predominance of no-chance American culture was *annoying*. Two different clues on defunct American game shows? Two US politicians? Too many trivia questions. I prefer words to names.

I thought 39A was just fine. The whole point was that you were so distracted by him having a musical style that you forgot he had a hairstyle. For me 24A was the weak one. I thought of it on first reading but chided myself "this is the NYT: it"s not going to clue yens as urges any more than they"re going to have anything to do with a three-toed sloth."

Tug of war is a strength competition between two teams who pull on opposite ends of a rope, vying to pull the opponents over a marked line. The sport was an event in the Summer Olympic Games from 1900 until 1920. The USA teams won all three medals for the tug of war at the 1904 Olympic Games in St. Louis.

We use the word “props” for objects that are used by actors on stage during a play. The term is a shortening of the older term “properties”, which was used with the same meaning up through the 19th century.

Feudalism was a legal and military system that flourished in medieval Europe. Central to the system were the concepts of lords, vassals and fiefs. Lords would grant fiefs (land or rights) to vassals in exchange for allegiance and service.

The dramatic tango dance originated in the late 1800s in the area along the border between Argentina and Uruguay. Dancers and orchestras from Buenos Aires in particular traveled to Europe and beyond in the early twentieth century and brought the tango with them. The tango craze first struck Europe in Paris in the 1910s, and from there spread to London and Berlin, crossing the Atlantic to New York in 1913.

A type of navigational buoy, often a vertical drum, but otherwise always square in silhouette, colored red in IALA region A (Europe, Africa, Greenland, and most of Asia and Oceania) or green in IALA region B (the Americas, Japan, Korea, and the Philippines). In channel marking its use is opposite that of a

2.  A tower-like structure on the dorsal (topside) surface of a submarine, serving in submarines built before the mid-20th century as a connecting structure between the bridge and pressure hull and housing instruments and controls from which the periscopes were used to direct the submarine and launch torpedo attacks. Since the mid-20th century, it has been replaced by the fin (European and British Commonwealth usage), a structure similar in appearance that no longer plays a role in directing the submarine.

A join between two lines, similar to an eye-splice, where each rope end is joined to the other a short distance along, making an opening that closes under tension.

The "valley" between the strands of a rope or cable. Before serving a section of laid rope, e.g. to protect it from chafing, it may be "wormed" by laying yarns in the cuntlines, giving that section an even cylindrical shape.

1.  A sailing vessel defined by its rig. In European waters this is a single-masted fore and aft rig with two or more headsails In North American waters, the definition also considers whether or not the bowsprit is permanently fixed and also takes into account the position of the mast. A standing (permanently fixed) bowsprit and a forward mast position, but with two or more headsails would be classed as a sloop in the North American definition. A running bowsprit, a forestay (carrying a staysail) that is fixed to the stemhead, a jib that is set flying and a mast position that is more aft is a cutter.
