    1st one i think is actually...."The i 500" which would make it
    The indy 500
    Linkage

    2nd one....are you sure its not "1001 AN" which would make it
    one thousand and one Arabian nights

    Still hacking away at this thing? Search Engines, people, if can't solve them yourself, and you're going to cheat, use search engines. I've seen some very dodgy answers here in the past.
