4 is B12 deficiency. I would also accept that it's used to test whether former MLB players are total ass*oles. 5 is dyspepsia.
1. When Sergei Fedorov, Vladimir Konstantinov, Slava Kozlov, Slava Fetisov, and Igor Larionov all played together for the mid-‘90s Detroit Red Wings, they were known by what nickname?
2. The “Supreme Lodge Benevolent Order Brothers” was founded as a community service club in Detroit in 1915. The name was later changed to an Ojibwe word they claimed meant “we build,” but actually means “we fool around.” What is that word?
3. Only one state capital ends in the two letter postal code of its state. What is that city?
4. In 1875, the English poet William Ernest Henley wrote a poem while recovering from surgery. Its title—which means “undefeated” in Latin—became the title of a movie in 2009. What is it?
5. J. M. W. Turner was known as the Painter of Light, until what American painter self-described with that term and trademarked it?

The Russian Five was correct.
1. More U.S. Vice-Presidents have come from New York than any other state. The most recent of them served from 1974 to 1977. Name that veep.
2. In 1952, an air pollution event called “The Great Smog” descended on what city, killing more than 10,000 people?
3. What lubricant was invented in 1872 and named after the German word for “water” combined with the Greek word for “olive oil”?
4. The American mustache’s highest honor is the “Mustached American of the Year Award,” which is, ironically enough, named in honor of a French-Canadian singer and actor. He was a Vegas staple, and appeared on-screen in Scrooged, Beetlejuice, and Boy Meets World. Name that mustachioed singer!
5. Human beings secrete a substance called cerumen, which protects a certain part of the body from bacteria, fungus, insects, and water. What is the more common name for cerumen?
