TV's Newest Breakout Star Iain Armitage Talks Magic, Mentors and Maintaining a Childhood in Show Business in Latest Emmy Magazine
With a string of acclaimed performances opposite some of Hollywood's biggest names and a breakout role in this season's hit CBS series Young Sheldon, Iain Armitage has established himself as a nine-year-old rising star. In the latest issue of emmy magazine, Armitage shares advice he's received from his showbiz peers and how his childish sense of wonder keeps acting fun.
The award-winning official publication of the Television Academy hits newsstands February 13.
Starring in the season's No. 1 new comedy, The Big Bang Theory spinoff Young Sheldon, would be a challenge for the most seasoned of actors. However, sharing the screen with big name talent including Jim Parsons, Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon has given the Arlington, Virginia third grader access to wisdom and advice from some of the best in the business.
Parsons, who stars as eccentric physics genius Sheldon Cooper on Big Bang, helped Armitage prepare to portray the character as a boy growing up in East Texas on Young Sheldon. As the young actor recounts, "This is one of the many things Mr. Jim said about Sheldon: 'If there are two paintings and one is wild and super splotchy and the other is neat, orderly, rainbow colored, Sheldon would like the neat, orderly one.'" That explained a lot. It got me in the mindset of Sheldon."
In addition to great mentors, Armitage, who was also praised for his performance as Ziggy in the HBO limited series Big Little Lies, surrounds himself with toys, games and stuffed animals that help him preserve his childhood in a serious business. "I love to play. I love to go outside and run around like a lunatic. I love to roll across the floor for no reason at all [and] jump up and down as if I had just won the Hamilton lottery," he shares.
Additionally, there are plenty of activities that hold a strong place in the heart of this confident kid including geology, wildlife, taekwondo and magic. Armitage reveals he may even like to trade acting for magic one day.
"Neal Patrick Harris taught me a magic trick," he says. "Don't even think about asking me to tell you the secret; I'll never give it up. But I don't want to copy anyone. I am my own street performer-magician self."
Additional feature highlights from the new issue include:
The network that brought you the hit shows Power and Outlander is just getting started. In "Power Drive," emmy reveals Starz's plan to lap its premium-cable competitors as it targets new audiences.
Hulu's new limited series The Looming Tower, starring Jeff Daniels, Alec Baldwin and Peter Sarsgaard, deconstructs the events leading up to 9/11, including the rising threat of Osama bin Laden and Al-Qaeda. In "A Method in the Madness," Jeff Daniels speaks with emmy about the role of former FBI agent John O'Neill.
Comedian, producer and former reality host Byron Allen can add "building an empire" to his résumé. For the past 25 years, Allen has been busy as the CEO of Entertainment Studios, one of the world's largest independent producers and global distributors of first-run syndicated programming. "Double Take" offers an in-depth interview with the businessman, in which he reveals the strategies that brought him success in the second half of his career.
In "The Upstagers," emmy magazine takes readers into L.A.'s Silicon Beach with an inside look at Vista Studios, where CEOs and co-founders Randall Heer and Frank Gianotti have developed a modern production space designed for the next generation of content creators.

It was quite the week in DII sports. The No. 1 team in DII football, women's soccer, and volleyball all went down. Shippensburg was able to rebound with a win over the weekend but suffered a loss midweek in DII field hockey. While the former No. 1 team in DII men's soccer was able to escape the week without a loss, the Midwestern State did play to a draw with unranked Texas A&M International to close its week.
That means there are five new No. 1 teams in DII sports this week. Let's find out who they are.
The Mavericks are no strangers to the No. 1 spot. Minnesota State reached No. 1 in Week 11 last season, running the table in the regular season and losing only to Texas A&M-Commerce in the DII playoffs. The Mavericks are off to a 4-0 start this season, coming back to win some tight games against two very tough teams in Augustana (SD) and Winona State. Nate Gunn leads the way on offense, as the running back has already pounded in nine touchdowns on the season, second to only Sioux Falls Gabriel Watson in DII football.
It is kind of unfair to call Concordia-St. Paul a new No. 1 team. The Golden Bears have been in and out of the No. 1 spot plenty of times over the past decade, and this recent honor marks the 83rd time they've seen the top spot. Concordia opened the season No. 1 coming off its ninth title in eleven years, but two early season losses hurt them a bit in the polls. To be fair, they were no easy losses losing to now-No. 6 Ferris State and the early-season giant killers, Texas A&M-Commerce. The Golden Bears have rebound to win their last ten in a row, including a perfect 4-for-4 against ranked teams.
It's been quite some time since the Tritons have been on top of women's soccer. The last time UC San Diego was in the No. 1 spot of a regular season poll was September 2, 2002. In fact, that last time the Tritons were ranked, now head coach Kristin Jones was a member of the team as a student-athlete. UC San Diego is a perfect 7-0-1 on the season and hasn't lost in its last 25 matches. Mary Reilly leads the Tritons offense, scoring seven goals thus far in 2018.
Simply put, Simon Fraser is on fire. The Clan opened the season playing two ranked teams in a three-game stretch on the road in California. They left undefeated and have yet to lose, now at 8-0 on the year. Goalkeeper Luciano Trasolini hasn't allowed more than one goal past him in any game yet this season, allowing a mere three goals in eight games. He recently posted four-straight shutouts until Saint Martin's got one by him as the Clan outscored their opponents 24-1 over that five-game stretch.
The Warriors are pretty familiar to the No. 1 spot themselves, reaching that spot last season. This is the first time East Stroudsburg finds its way to the top in 2018. Here's its recipe for success: First, defeat the reigning national runners-up (LIU Post) 5-0. One week later, travel to the reigning national champions (Shippensburg) and upset the Raiders on their home turf 4-0. The Warriors are on absolute fire, outscoring their opponents 15-0 in the last three games and moving to 3-1 against ranked teams in 2018.

A double-blind peer review method is mandatory for processing of all scientific manuscripts submitted to the editorial staff of the journal. This implies that neither the reviewer is aware of the authorship of the manuscript, nor the author maintains any contact with the reviewer.
All reviewers are recognized experts in the subject of the peer-reviewed manuscript and have publications on the subject of the peer-reviewed manuscript over the past 3 years.
Members of the editorial board and leading global experts in corresponding areas of sciences, invited as independent readers, perform peer reviews. Editor-in-chief, deputy editor-in-chief or science editor choose readers for peer review. We aim to limit the review process to 2-4 weeks, though in some cases the schedule may be adjusted at the reviewer's request.
Reviewer has an option to abnegate the assessment should any conflict of interests arise that may affect perception or interpretation of the manuscript. Upon the scrutiny, the reviewer is expected to present the editorial board with one of the following recommendations:
to accept the paper in its present state;
to invited the author to revise their manuscript to address specific concerns before final decision is reached;
that final decision be reached following further reviewing by another specialist;
to reject the manuscript outright.
If the reviewer has recommended any refinements, the editorial staff would suggest the author either to implement the corrections, or to dispute them reasonably. Authors are kindly required to limit their revision to 2 months and resubmit the adapted manuscript within this period for final evaluation.
We politely request that the editor be notified verbally or in writing should the author decide to refuse from publishing the manuscript. In case the author fails to do so within 3 months since receiving a copy of the initial review, the editorial board takes the manuscript off the register and notifies the author accordingly.
The editors conduct no more than three rounds of peer review for each manuscript. If, after the three-fold revision of the manuscript, the majority of the reviewers or the editorial board have significant comments on the text, the manuscript is rejected and removed from consideration. In this case, the authors are sent a corresponding notification about the rejection of the manuscript.
If author and reviewers meet insoluble contradictions regarding revision of the manuscript, the editor-in-chief resolves the conflict by his own authority.
The editorial board reaches final decision to reject a manuscript on the hearing according to reviewers' recommendations, and duly notifies the authors of their decision via e-mail. The board does not accept previously rejected manuscripts for re-evaluation.
Upon the decision to accept the manuscript for publishing, the editorial staff notifies the authors of the scheduled date of publication.
Kindly note that positive review does not guarantee the acceptance, as final decision in all cases lies with the editorial board. By his authority, editor-in-chief rules final solution of every conflict.
The authors have the right to argue the decision of the editorial board to reject the manuscript and to remove it from consideration. To do this, they should send an appeal to the editorial board, addressed to the editor-in-chief. The appeal should include detailed reasons for the authors' disagreement with the decision of the editorial board (based on the conclusions of the reviewers), give reasons in favor of revising the decision, and send the revised manuscript (if such revision is appropriate). Disputes and requests from authors to revise the decisions of the editorial board are considered personally by the editor-in-chief at the meeting of the editorial board. The decisions made by the editor-in-chief are not subject to challenge.
Original reviews of submitted manuscripts remain deposited permanently (not less than 5 years).
Manuscript reviews are not published. Reviews can be sent to the Ministry of Education and Sciense of Russian Federation in case of query.

The ethic policy of this journal is based on recommendations from international committees:
When developing these rules, the publisher and the editorial board of the journal used not only their editorial and publishing practice but also the experience of the journals published by leading international scientific literature publishers, such as Elsevier, Springer, Taylor and Francis, etc.
Editorial responsibilities
Editors have sole responsibility for acceptance or rejection of a manuscript. The manuscript may be rejected by the editor on the stage prior to peer-review for a solid reason (inappropriate topic for journal, clearly of poor scientific quality, the article was previously published elsewhere, essential contradiction to ethical principles of the Journal was detected). Editors should only accept a paper when reasonably certain. Editors should guarantee that the quality of the papers conforms to internationally accepted scientific and publication ethical guidelines. If there is conflict of interest of the editor with the author of the article, the article should be transmitted to another editor.
The editor transmits all the submitted manuscripts, which were not rejected according to the reasons stated below, for peer-review. The editor chooses the reviewers out of the most competent specialists on the topic of the article.
Editors should preserve anonymity of reviewers and should not tell the reviewers the names of the authors.
Editors should guarantee the quality of the papers and the integrity of the academic record and be willing to publish corrections, clarifications, retractions and apologies when needed.
Authors of reports of original research should present an accurate account of the work performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance. Underlying data should be represented accurately in the paper. A paper should contain sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable.
Review and professional publication articles should also be accurate and objective, and editorial opinion works should be clearly identified as such.
The editorial board adheres to ethical standards in its work and, above all, defending the right to editorial independence. Placement of promotional materials and sponsorship can not influence in any way on editorial decisions and editorial content.

All decisions on advertising placement are only accepted by the publisher. The editors reserve the right not to accept advertising materials, placement does not meet the publication policy.
Data Access and Retention
Authors may be asked to provide the raw data in connection with a paper for editorial review, and should be prepared to provide public access to such data (consistent with the ALPSP-STM Statement on Data and Databases), if practicable, and should in any event be prepared to retain such data for a reasonable time after publication.
Originality and Plagiarism
Plagiarism takes many forms, from passing off another paper as the author(s) own paper, to copying or paraphrasing substantial parts of another(s) paper (without attribution), to claiming results from research conducted by others. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable.
The Editorial Board considers the following to be the forms plagiarism:
Use (word for word citing) of any materials in any value without indicating the source;
use of images, pictures, photographs, tables, diagrams, schemes or any other forms of graphical information presentation without indicating the source;
use of images, pictures, photographs, tables, diagrams, schemes or any other forms of graphical information presentation published in scientific and popular issues without approving by copyright holder;
use of the materials without written permission, the authors or copyright holders of which don't permit use of their materials without special approvement.
The Editorial Board considers the following to be the forms of incorrect borrowing:
Absence of graphical highlighting of literal text citation when there are references to the source;
incorrect references (incomplete bibliographic description of the sources, which prevents their identification;
reference not to the first source of the borrowed text without clear indication of this fact (mistake in primary source determination);
absence of references from the text to the sources enumerated in the list below the article;
excessive citation (in case there are references to the sources and graphical highlighting of the cited text), the volume of which is not justified by the genre and aims of the article.
Only original works are acceptable for publication in journal. The journal does not allow any forms of plagiarism.
If the authors have used the work and/or words of others, that this has been appropriately cited or quoted.
The journal is using "ANTIPLAGIAT" software for plagiarism detection in all Russian-language manuscripts. If the editorial board of the journal has reasons for a more detailed check, additional tools for searching for borrowings can be involved. The Google Scholar is used for English-language manuscripts. Papers will be rejected from any stage of the publication process (even if the article was published already) if plagiarism will be fined.
The Editorial Board of the Journal strongly discourages the use of any technique to increase the text score in the Anti-Plagiarism system.
Articles that show signs of technical modifications in order to artificially increase the uniqueness of the text will not be published in the journal even if revised. The editors report all such facts to the reviewer and, if the author works in an educational institution, to its management.
If unauthorized borrowings are detected, as well as with a low coefficient of originality of the text (<85%) and large amounts of borrowings that are not justified by the goals of the article, the manuscript is rejected from publication.
Articles whose content repeats the results and conclusions obtained in other scientific publications of the author (monographs, previous publications in journals and collections), as well as studies already described earlier in dissertations and abstracts, in the absence of development of the provisions presented in them and new results, to publications are not accepted.
Identification of plagiarism of ideas and plagiarism of data is carried out as part of scientific peer review, as well as after the publication of manuscripts - upon the fact of readers' requests with relevant statements. When establishing the fact of unauthorized borrowing of data (results of scientific work) or ideas, the manuscript (article) will be withdrawn and rejected from publication, even if it has already been published.
Papers will be rejected from any stage of the publication process (even if the article was published already) if plagiarism will be fined.
Multiple, Redundant or Concurrent Publication
An author should not in general publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behaviour and is unacceptable.
In general, an author should not submit for consideration in another journal a previously published paper. Publication of some kinds of articles (eg, clinical guidelines, translations) in more than one journal is sometimes justifiable, provided certain conditions are met. The authors and editors of the journals concerned must agree to the secondary publication, which must reflect the same data and interpretation of the primary document. The primary reference must be cited in the secondary publication. Further detail on acceptable forms of secondary publication can be found at http://www.icmje.org/
Acknowledgment of Sources

Authorship of the Paper
Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the reported study. All those who have made significant contributions should be listed as co-authors. Where there are others who have participated in certain substantive aspects of the research project, they should be acknowledged or listed as contributors.
First author. The first author in the list of co-authors should be the head of the author's team of the manuscript, who took the greatest part in the process of preparing the text and is familiar with the entire process of conducting scientific work. The head of the team of authors should also be a "correspondence author" - to communicate with the editors of the journal and readers (after the publication of the article).
The corresponding author should ensure that all appropriate co-authors and no inappropriate co-authors are included on the paper, and that all co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the paper and have agreed to its submission for publication.
Hazards and Human or Animal Subjects
If the work involves chemicals, procedures or equipment that have any unusual hazards inherent in their use, the author must clearly identify these in the manuscript. If the work involves the use of animal or human subjects, the author should ensure that the manuscript contains a statement that all procedures were performed in compliance with relevant laws and institutional guidelines and that the appropriate institutional committee(s) have approved them. Authors should include a statement in the manuscript that informed consent was obtained for experimentation with human subjects. The privacy rights of human subjects must always be observed.
When reporting experiments on human subjects, authors should indicate whether the procedures followed were in accordance with the ethical standards of the responsible committee on human experimentation (institutional and national) and with the Helsinki Declaration of 1975, as revised in 2000 and 2008. If doubt exists whether the research was conducted in accordance with the Helsinki Declaration, the authors must explain the rationale for their approach, and demonstrate that the institutional review body explicitly approved the doubtful aspects of the study.
When reporting experiments on animals, authors should be asked to indicate whether the institutional and national guide for the care and use of laboratory animals was followed.

application or registration of patents for research results (copyright, etc.);
obtaining financial support for any of the stages of research or the preparation of the manuscript (including grants and other financial support).
Explicit and potential conflicts of interest should be disclosed as early as possible.
Information on conflicts of interest received from the authors of the manuscripts is not provided to the reviewers and is available only to the editorial board when deciding on the publication of the manuscript. Also, information on conflicts of interest is published as part of the full text of the article.
Fundamental errors in published works
When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in his/her own published work, it is the authors obligation to promptly notify the journal editor or publisher and cooperate with the editor to retract or correct the paper. If the editor or the publisher learn from a third party that a published work contains a significant error, it is the obligation of the author to promptly correct or retract the paper or provide evidence to the editor of the correctness of the original paper.
Editorial Policy for Corrections to Published Articles
If inaccuracies and factual errors are made in the article that do not require retraction of the article, the editorial carries out the procedure for publishing the corrections.
The purpose of corrections made to a scientific article after publication is to convey truthful, accurate information to the reader, help avoid illegal borrowing, and eliminate erroneous data.
Any necessary changes will be accompanied with a post-publication notice which will be permanently linked to the original article so that readers will be fully informed of any necessary changes. This can be in the form of a Correction notice, an Expression of Concern, a Retraction and in rare circumstances a Removal.
Authors should notify us as soon as possible if they find errors in their published article, especially errors that could affect the interpretation of data or reliability of information presented. It is the responsibility of the corresponding author to ensure consensus has been reached between all listed co-authors prior to putting forward any requests for corrections or retractions to an article.
Any minor errors will not be accompanied by a separate correction notice. Instead a footnote will be added to the article detailing to the reader that the article has been corrected. Minor errors do not impact the reliability of, or the reader's understanding of, the scholarly content.
The reprint of the article with corrections is carried out simultaneously with the retraction of the previous publication in case of multiple typos, incorrect citation, incorrect wording, incorrect facts, the need for corrections to the team of authors and other cases where changes are required that affect the interpretation of the article and at the same time the scientific integrity of the article does not remain unchanged.
Reprint of the corrected article may be initiated by the author (s), readers or the editors of the journal.
The procedure for correcting errors when reprinting an article
If the editorial board has received information about the need to make corrections from third parties, the editor or the Editor-in-Chief will politely send the authors a notification about the need to analyze the identified errors.
After an analysis of the identified errors, the editorial representatives report the need to reprint the article with corrections to the author (s) to agree on the corrections.
The printed issue of the journal publishes an error message indicating the number / year and pages of the issue with the article in which the error was made, a description of the error and text with the corrected error, and retractions of the previous version of the article containing errors.
It is also indicated on whose initiative the retraction and reprint procedure is carried out.
In the online version of the journal, an error message is posted on the site page and / or PDF file with the article.
Readers are given the opportunity to work with the revised version of the article by posting it on the site next to the previous retracted version, in which the retraction was noted.
4. Information about the corrections, retractions and republishing is transferred to the to the Russian Index of Science Citation (elibrary.ru) and other databases in which the journal is indexed.
In some cases the Editorial Board may consider retracting a publication.

This is not the only essential piece of gear that you need to carry along for productions. When doing video or audio (or both), our crew always carries at least one 100ft. XLR cable. This has saved us in many scenarios.
Live sound setting. We bring a snake with 4 returns and all of a sudden a 5th return is needed. You can "home run" your 100ft microphone cable along side your snake. Problem solved.
Video setting: Recording a corporate round table session. Simple setup. Once camera in the back of the room with a wide shot covering the event. All microphones are routed to a mixer that is about 70ft. away. On the mixer, your L main output is going to the main speakers. Take the R main output and run your 100ft XLR all the way to the camera input. This saves us from having to sync audio in the post edit. A second audio track is recorded using a zoom h5 just for backup.
The simple truth of production is that you will have moments come up where you have to improvise. Having this piece of gear will solve problems on set.


The Solomon Islands Chess Federation (SICF) received a boost of morale entering the New Year with the current visit of International Chess Federations Chief Executive Officer and of Global Chess, Geoffrey Borg.
His visit is no ordinary, seeing the level of experience and skills from the top being relayed to the local federation and key players in the country.
A chess grandmaster himself Borg is accompanied by Casto Abundo, the Asian Chess Federation Deputy President.
In an interview with Star Sports, FIDE's CEO Geoffrey Borg said he is so grateful to be in Solomon Islands one of the tiny island nations in the pacific, more so to help boost chess in the country.
He said he is grateful to the keen interest of individuals who have played chess so far although it is still an amateur state.
"The interest and the number of individuals wanting to play chess here is encouraging, and FIDE is very grateful to such outcome in putting support behind.
Borg said it is equally important that the National Olympic Committee of Solomon Islands (NOCSI) including the Government through the sporting ministry to take responsible and take the leading role in making this happen.
He said the hardship economically and geographically might be a setback from the past but let's not be stagnant but move and improve the game further.
He added that chess is a sport to develop personal wellbeing of individuals and develop good citizens to think critically.
"It's not only about sports but developing citizens' mindset to a mature state that can be critical and make decisions for themselves at hand.
"It is a fantastic game to enjoy; study and be your own expert by getting the best out of you through learning in a structured way," he said.
Borg said FIDE would like to see chess is accessible to all in the country in schools, competitions of clubs and the presence of it in all the provinces in the country.
More over making more of its information available to all by all means, he said.
FIDE's CEO visit into the country will include meeting with the Prime Minister Gordon Darcy Lilo, the National Olympic Committee of Solomon Islands, other relevant authorities including visit to schools.
Star Sports understands two chess representatives from Fiji are also in the country to be part of a training conducted by the two top chess officials.


The action is heating up in the Canadian Football League, as this week marks a third of the regular season being finished. The Eskimos continue to control the board, as they're still tops on the Week 6 CFL power rankings.
The Eskimos remain at the top of the heap thanks to their picture-perfect 5-0 record. Edmonton squeezed by the Argonauts 26-25 last week, but a win is a win. Ricky Ray continued his dominant season, going 24-for-34 for 261 yards, two touchdowns and no interception.
The Eskies quarterback now boasts an impressive 10:1 touchdown to interception ratio.
The Bombers show no signs of slowing down after topping the B.C. Lions 25-20 in Week 5. Winnipeg is still getting by with a fantastic defence, which ranks first in the CFL with just 19.4 points per game allowed. The Blue Bombers were all over the field against British Columbia, racking up six sacks and forcing a fumble.
After a luke-warm start, the Tiger-Cats are finally delivering on the rising expectations they had coming into 2011. Hamilton earned a hard-fought 34-26 victory over the Montreal Alouettes last week, the team's third consecutive win. The Ti-Cats are getting it done with an explosive offense, as they've averaged a whopping 35.3 points per game in those victories.
Calgary is treading water at 3-2. The Stampeders picked up a win over Saskatchewan last week, beating the Roughriders 22-18. The offense has been very shaky, as the Stamps have scored the third fewest points in the CFL this season. Although Calgary didn't put up a ton of points, there were some signs of progress. The team came through with several clutch first downs, and the offence at up the clock late in the game.
Despite another loss, the Argos showed some signs of life against the undefeated Eskimos last week, losing by just a point. Perhaps most importantly, the team scored a half-decent point total, losing 26-25. But while it's not altogether surprising the offence is struggle, it's absolutely frustrating the defence continues to be so bad; the Argos are allowing 28.4 points per game.
The Riders dropped to 1-4 after a tight loss with Calgary last week. Saskatchewan posses the worst offence in the CFL, and it all starts at quarterback. Darian Durant was just 16-for-28 for 215 yards against Calgary, though he did factor in on both of the club's touchdowns. Still, playoff hopes are fading fast with such a powder puff attack.
B.C. fell to 0-5 last week with a 25-20 loss to the Blue Bombers. The Lions just can't seem to get it right, but at least the defence is making a few big plays. British Columbia racked up four sacks and forced a pair of fumbles, so that's something to build on.


It took 20 years of battling chronic tension and pain, the guidance through visualizations of letting go and clearing out old energies, and the hands of a skilled massage therapist in myofascial release, but my body finally was able to give my mind the permission to just. be. me. Through the release and attention that was brought to my consistently knotted neck and shoulder muscles, I felt a sense of relief-and not the usual nice feeling of the physical pain of the muscle finally unwinding itself. No, this one was different. The sensation was more of an energetic rush of relief. The feeling that my head wasn't stuck, chained down, to my shoulders anymore. That my head felt lighter. That I heard my head say, "you can be you." It was like I finally had the permission from my body to simply be myself.
And then that was when it hit me. Since I was a little girl, I have associated my strength and self-worth with the physical strength of my body. But for the past 20 years, I have struggled with shoulder, neck and head pain that has held me back from the dreams, goals, and accomplishments I believed I was supposed to accomplish. I dreamed of being an Olympic swimmer, but by the age of 11, I was dealing with shoulder pain, and by age 14 I couldn't even lift cereal boxes off the shelf without severe pain shooting through my arms. I eventually gave up swimming at age 17 and tried to focus on other things, one namely my performance on our high school ski team. At the beginning of the season right before I turned 18, I suffered a severe concussion at the end of ski practice, which again threw a wrench in my expectations of myself. Leading me to drop out of calculous my senior year of high school, and my GPA to drastically fall from the above 4.0 to a mid-range 3.5. Again, I saw my failure, in never having dropped below a 4.0 my entire high school career. The combined efforts of the damage I had done to my shoulders while swimming, and the head and neck injury from skiing, would prove to cast a shadow on all my physical efforts from there on out. Having to deal with chronic tension headaches, migraines, and shoulder pain, I found myself unable to participate in daily life as I had before. I wasn't performing in sports the way I expected my body should be able to. Getting to a point where I would see progress, only to be sidelined by the inevitable shoulder or neck flare up. I couldn't sit or travel for long periods of time without taking painkillers, in order to nip the tension headache in the bud, before it could become a full migraine. I couldn't paddle the way others trained in my training programs, because of the impending neck and shoulder pain that would result in weeks of pain, if I pushed it just a little too far. I couldn't do a handstand or headstand without serious overuse of my neck. Playing any sport where I was required to throw a ball was also most definitely out of the question-so there goes softball and water polo. My life had and has always revolved around playing sports, or being active. People were always telling me how strong I was, or at least looked like I was, and so I prided myself on my body's strength- even if that meant not listening to it and pushing it through pain.
While lying on the massage table, in that moment of the release in my shoulder, I realized I had always seen my body's weaknesses and failures as who I was as a person. It was because I had always equated my value and self-worth to my physical strength that anything where my body failed, I as a person was a failure. That no matter how hard I tried, there would always be the inevitable downfall waiting in the wings-just to remind me that I'm not good enough.
It was in that moment, for the first time my mind and spirit were finally free from my body. And I understood on a deeper level, that my pain doesn't define me. I am not my pain. I am more than that. I felt the shell that I had carried around myself for 20 years, start to fall away, and I had a sense of that carefree little girl I had once been started to show her face. Creative. Untethered to expectations or assumptions. Wild at heart. Unafraid of anything. I felt perfectly at ease. With myself. Like I was meeting an old friend I hadn't seen in a very long time. And while although the knot in my shoulder continually tried to grab and pull back into its former ball. It didn't matter. It didn't matter, because it was simply pain. It wasn't going to have any regulation on my life. I was bigger than that. I didn't have any expectations of who I was supposed to be, or what my body was supposed to accomplish. I could simply just be me.

Trump calls Trudeau 'two faced,' 'very nice guy' after candid video surfaces
Lee Berthiaume, The Canadian Press | posted Thursday, Dec 5th, 2019
Donald Trump called Justin Trudeau "two-faced" but also a "very nice guy" after the Canadian prime minister was caught on video seemingly talking critically with other world leaders about the U.S. president.
The video was shot during a reception at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday night, hours after Trudeau and Trump met on the sidelines of a gathering of leaders from the NATO military alliance. It immediately sparked concerns about a possible backlash against Canada from the prickly president.
The footage shows Britain's Prime Minister Boris Johnson asking France's President Emmanuel Macron why he was late, to which Trudeau can be heard saying: "He was late because he takes a 40-minute press conference off the top."
The leaders do not use Trump's name, but the U.S. president took dozens of questions from journalists on Tuesday during impromptu news conferences at the starts of his individual meetings with Macron, Trudeau and NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg.
Trump's public appearance with Trudeau lasted more than half an hour and included questions about China and the impeachment process and also saw the Canadian prime minister trying to deflect questions from the U.S. president about Canada's defence spending.
The reception footage also shows Trudeau saying "his team's jaws drop to the floor" about someone, though it's not completely certain whom he's talking about.
During a meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Wednesday, Trump was asked about Trudeau's comments, to which the U.S. president responded: "He's two-faced."
But the president, who has never shied away from lashing out over perceived insults, including from other world leaders, quickly added: "But honestly, with Trudeau, he's a nice guy. I've found him to be a very nice guy."
Trump went on to suggest Trudeau was upset that the U.S. president had called out Canada for not spending two per cent of its gross domestic product — a common measure of national wealth — on its military, as all NATO allies have agreed to do.
"He's not paying two per cent and he should be paying two per cent," Trump said. "It's Canada, they have money and they should be paying two per cent. So I called him out on that and I'm sure he's wasn't happy about that, but that's the way it is."
Canada is currently spending 1.31 per cent of its GDP on defence.
The surprisingly gentle rebuke — at least by Trump's standards — follows concerns Trudeau's comments could result in a backlash against Canada from the president, who only this week blasted French President Emmanuel Macron.
Macron had suggested the NATO alliance was suffering from "brain death" because of a lack of communication and co-ordination, particularly with regards to U.S. and Turkish actions in northeastern Syria.
Trump described Macron's comments as "very nasty" before criticizing France's economy and warning the European country needed NATO far more than the U.S.
The U.S. president also previously attacked Trudeau following the G7 summit in Quebec City in June 2018, describing the prime minister as "so meek and mild" amid a trade row over Canadian dairy and American tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum, and then accusing him of making false statements once Trump was gone.
"Very dishonest & weak," Trump tweeted.
The new video nonetheless threatened to undermine not only Trudeau's efforts to boost the NATO alliance at a time of internal divisions and external threats, but also Canada's own relations with the White House.
At his summit-ending news conference, Trudeau said he has a very good and constructive relationship with Trump that has allowed them to move forward on the renewed NAFTA deal and steel tariffs which the U-S lifted.
Trudeau also announced Canada would make a full fighter-jet squadron and several naval warships available for a NATO deployment on 30 days notice as the alliance seeks to boost its ability to respond rapidly to emergencies.
The video of Trudeau, who was speaking to Johnson, Macron, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte and Princess Anne, quickly went viral after it was released and was reported on by international media outlets, including the New York Times, Fox News and the BBC.
Conservative foreign affairs critic Erin O'Toole criticized the prime minister on Twitter, saying: "I am taking the side of comporting oneself with professionalism on the world stage when you represent more than just yourself."
Yet others praised the prime minister for what they saw as his speaking the truth about Trump, who is deeply unpopular in many quarters.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg made no reference to Trudeau's exchange as he formally ended the summit.
Members reiterated the alliance's founding principle that an attack on one represents an attack on all, and recommitted to spending more on defence.

Sir Alexander Burnes (genannt "Bokhara Burnes"; * 16. Mai 1805 in Montrose; † 2. November 1841 in Kabul) war ein britischer Entdeckungsreisender, Reiseschriftsteller und Diplomat. Er spielte eine wichtige Rolle im Great Game und im Ersten Anglo-Afghanischen Krieg. Seine Buch Travels into Bokhara war zum Zeitpunkt der Erscheinung ein Bestseller. Durch seine publizierten Beschreibungen gilt er als moderner Entdecker der Buddha-Statuen von Bamiyan im heutigen Afghanistan.

Leben
Alexander Burnes wurde als Sohn des späteren Provost von Montrose James Burnes geboren. Er war ein Cousin des schottischen Nationaldichters Robert Burns. Im Alter von 16 Jahren trat Burnes in die Armee der Britischen Ostindien-Kompanie. In Indien lernte er Hindustani und Persisch und wurde 1822 als Übersetzer in Surat eingesetzt. 1826 wurde er nach Kachchh versetzt, wo sein Interesse für Geschichte und Geographie der Region der North West Frontier und der dahinter liegenden, durch die Briten kaum erforschten, Länder geweckt wurde.

In den folgenden Jahren unternahm er Reisen durch Indien, Afghanistan, Persien und bis nach Buchara. Seiner Reise nach Buchara verdankte er seinen Spitznamen "Bokhara Burnes". Auf seinen Reisen kam er 1832 auch an den kolossalen Buddha-Statuen von Bamiyan vorbei, die er durch mangelndes Vorwissen als Mann und Frau interpretierte. Seine Beschreibung der Statuen veröffentlichte das Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal im November 1833. Im Jahr 1834, nach seiner Rückkehr nach England, veröffentlichte Burnes das Werk Travels into Bokhara über seine Reisen, welches damals sehr populär wurde.

Burnes wurde 1836 in einer politischen Mission zu Dost Mohammed, dem Herrscher von Afghanistan, nach Kabul entsandt. Dort traf er auf den russischen Offizier Witkewitsch. Dessen Aufgabe war die Fortsetzung der 1835 begonnenen Annäherung Afghanistans an Russland. Burnes riet dem britischen Generalgouverneur von Indien, Baron Auckland, Dost Mohammed zu unterstützen. Dieser entschied sich aber, der Meinung William Macnaghtens zu folgen und den früheren Herrscher Schah Schudscha wieder einzusetzen. Dies führte zur Abreise von Burnes aus Kabul und schließlich zum Ersten Anglo-Afghanischen Krieg. 1838 wurde Burnes als Knight Bachelor geadelt.

Nach dem Einmarsch der britischen Armee in Afghanistan wurde Burnes politischer Agent in Kabul. Im Laufe des Jahres 1841 kam es zu Unruhen im Land. Genährt wurden diese von der Reduzierung der Zahlungen der neuen britischen Regierung Peel an die einheimischen Stammesfürsten und dem ausschweifenden Leben einiger britischer Offiziere, allen voran Alexander Burnes. Afghanische Freischärler griffen britische Außenposten an und in Kabul versammelte sich am 2. November 1841 eine Menschenmenge vor Burnes Haus. Bei dem Versuch, zu fliehen wurde er entdeckt und ermordet. Die britische Garnison unterließ es, ihm zu Hilfe zu kommen, und die einheimischen Truppen flohen vor der aufgebrachten Menge. Die Untätigkeit der Briten führte zu einem allgemeinen Aufstand, der zum katastrophalen Rückzug von General Elphinstone aus Kabul führte, in dem dessen Armee vollständig vernichtet wurde.

I can not believe all the problems that are going on in the City of Birmingham Alabama right now. Every day it seems like we keep hearing of more bad news coming out of the Magic City. And I am going to highlight them one by one.
The Birmingham City Council is considering putting in heavy restrictions on food trucks. The brick and mortar businesses complained that their investments are being threatened by unfair and unregulated competition. And councilman Johnathan Austin is proposing an ordinance that would set up an 200-foot buffer zone from already established businesses. It would also set up established zones for the trucks and create a new business license category for the food trucks. The more I see this right now I believe this is a sorry attempt by the government of Birmingham to ban food trucks. There are many restaurants in the downtown Birmingham area and the 200 foot buffer would pretty much ban food trucks.
Of course if a food truck was parked in an illegal area or on a sidewalk they should have to move. But I see this attempt as food truck murder in Birmingham. There are several great food trucks that serve customers in Birmingham. Trucks such as Dreamcakes, Spoonfed Grill, Shindigs Catering, and Cantina on Wheels brings new options for people in the lunch hour. Plus food trucks has been a huge hit in cities across the country. Food trucks also brings new life to downtown areas and you often see a good line in front of a food truck. So I think this proposed ordinance is stupid and not needed. I guess Birmingham loves seeing more businesses leaving the city for good. By the way I am glad that Food Blog South is being moved to Homewood next year.
Go to http://www.change.org/petitions/birmingham-city-council-member-support-street-food-vendors-in-birmingham to sign a petition to stop this crazy ordinance.
This should also come as no surprise. The Cooper Green Mercy Hospital that is run by Jefferson County has had over $500 million from the indigent care fund that has been unaccounted for over the years. Plus Cooper Green owes $71 million from past court rulings. The county held a meeting with many people on ways to save the hospital and there was a quote that made me laugh. A Birmingham lawyer named Emory Anthony and a resident of Birmingham said Cooper Green Mercy Hospital has been a "whipping boy" for the county.
My question is this; with Obamacare being ruled constitutional and now going to be put into effect unless after the next elections politicians stop it. Why does this hospital even needs to exist? Everyone is going to have insurance or they will have to pay a huge fine. There are many other hospitals in the area that would be able to serve the poor and in my opinion this hospital needs to be closed down. This would save the county lots of money and help them recover from bankruptcy much sooner.
This comes as no surprise that the Birmingham Board of Education is having trouble. The Alabama Department of Education and Superintendent Tommy Bice has come in and taken over the school system. Sure some of the board members tried to sue to remove the state takeover and school Superintendent Craig Witherspoon. But the judge did the right thing and allowed the takeover to continue. Birmingham City Schools once was a great school system in the state of Alabama but it is now a piece of c*ap.
The city wanted to even bailout the school system but thankfully that was stopped. It's sad to see how far Jefferson County and Birmingham Alabama has fallen. Once one of the top city and county in the country has now fallen to a laughing-stock. The school system needs a lot of work including better teachers and staff, money cutbacks, and the closing of older schools. But I am afraid nothing is going to be done even after the state takeover ends. Because many members of the board wants to keep blowing money and be corrupt. I hope the voters of Birmingham will be smart enough to vote out the corrupt board members in the next election.
This report from the Brookings Institution should also come as no surprise. The Birmingham Jefferson County Transit Authority has been ranked 90 out of 100 cities on the mass transit's ability to connect workers with jobs. Most people who ride the Birmingham bus system has to ride the bus for hours to get to their jobs. And sometimes the bus the people rides breaks down or catches on fire. This video from the UAB Digital Media student class should tell you everything.
Every major metro area needs a good mass transit system to function. And it seems like the Birmingham Metro is in a backward state when it comes to mass transit. The BJCTA gets no state funding and has to rely on city and federal funds. Birmingham could look to similar metro areas its size such as Oklahoma City or Charlotte which has a great mass transit system. Some people also wants to see light rail and better buses put into service in the metro area. But it is going to mean the state of Alabama needs to provide funding. How much of a chance is that going to happen?

Pierre Giffard
(1853-05-01)1 May 1853
Fontaine-le-Dun, Seine-Maritime, France
21 January 1922(1922-01-21) (aged 68)
Arator at Le Vélo
Jean-sans-Terre at Le Petit Journal
Journalist, editor, historian, author, politician
Pierre Giffard (1 May 1853 – 21 January 1922) was a French journalist, a pioneer of modern political reporting, a newspaper publisher and a prolific sports organiser. In 1892, he was appointed Chevalier (Knight) of the Légion d'Honneur and in 1900 he was appointed an Officier (Officer) of the Légion d'Honneur.
Parisian newspapers used sporting events as circulation aids, and Giffard created the Paris–Brest–Paris cycle race in 1891, the 380 kilometre Paris–Belfort running race in 1892,[1] the world's first car race from Paris to Rouen in 1894,[2] the Paris marathon in 1896, and a foot-race from Bordeaux to Paris in 1903.[1]
Giffard served as the editor of Le Petit Journal and then the sports daily Le Vélo, where his passionate support for Alfred Dreyfus and thus his opposition to the car-maker Comte Jules-Albert de Dion over the whole Dreyfus affair led de Dion to create a rival daily, L'Auto, which in turn created the Tour de France cycle race.

Pierre Giffard's father was a lawyer and mayor in Fontaine-le-Dun. Pierre was taught from the age of six by Father Biville at Saint-Laurent-en-Caux and from eight at the Lycée Pierre Corneille in Rouen. He completed his schooling in Paris, at the Lycée Charlemagne in the Marais district. It was there that he developed his republican ideas.
The Franco-Prussian War started in 1870 and Giffard enrolled in the army, with his parents' reluctant permission, at Fontaine-le-Dun in Normandy. He joined the reserve army in November at Le Havre. There, following the custom of the time, he was made an officer. He became a lieutenant on 10 December 1870. At the end of the war he resumed his studies at Douai, where he gained a university degree in August 1871.
Giffard's father died on 1 August 1872, and Giffard moved to Paris to work as a journalist.
Journalism[edit]
Giffard had a long and successful career in journalism. Between 1873 and 1878 he worked for Le Corsaire, L'Evénement, La France, Le Gaulois, Le Petit Parisien, La Lanterne and finally Le Figaro. He then assumed editorship of Le Petit Journal in 1887 and of the sports daily Le Vélo in 1896.
After an abortive election attempt in 1900 Giffard returned to full-time journalism at Le Vélo until its demise in 1904. He then joined Matin, which sent him to the Far East to cover the Russia-Japan war. He returned to Paris in July 1904, weakened by illness, and proceeded to work for several papers, including Dépêche Coloniale and Petit Marseillais. In June 1906, now one of the senior journalists of France, he went back to Le Figaro and reported the first meeting of the Russian parliament. In 1910 Giffard was employed by his arch-rival Henri Desgrange writing for L'Auto until retirement.[3]
Le Figaro[edit]
Giffard joined Le Figaro on the strength of his reports of the World Exhibition in Paris and of conferences he organised there concerning the invention of the telephone and telegraph. He reported from Switzerland, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Greece, Austria, Scotland, Algeria, Tunisia, Malta, Cyprus, Spain, the Netherlands and Denmark. He reported on the attack by French troops on Cheikh Bouamama fr:Cheikh Bouamama in Algeria and the taking of Sfax in Tunisia, and the arrival of the British fleet at Alexandria and the departure of the French navy.
In June 1906, he went back to Le Figaro and reported the first meeting of the Russian parliament, the Douma.

Le Petit Journal[edit]
Hippolyte Auguste Marinoni[4][Note 1] asked Giffard to reorganise the newsroom of the daily paper, Le Petit Journal. He began work on 1 October 1887. There he started a diary which, in the tradition of the paper, he signed with a pseudonym: Jean-sans-Terre. He stayed at the paper for 10 years. In 1891 he organised the Paris–Brest–Paris bicycle race for the newspaper, followed by the Paris–Belfort running race. In 1892, he was appointed a member of the Légion d'Honneur, and in 1900 he was appointed as an officer.
Le Vélo[edit]
In 1896, he joined his colleague Paul Rousseau at the head of the newspaper, Le Vélo, where he wrote under the name Arator. There on 19 July 1896 he organised the first Paris marathon and helped found the Automobile Club de France.
In 1900 he threw the paper in support of Alfred Dreyfus in the Dreyfus affair. France was divided over the justice of his trial for selling military secrets to the Germans. The paper's largest advertisers, anti-Dreyfusards such as Count Jules-Albert de Dion, Adolphe Clément and Édouard Michelin believed Dreyfus guilty and removed their advertising from the paper. They then launched a rival paper, at first called L'Auto-Vélo and then simply L'Auto.
A circulation war broke out between the two papers. Le Vélo's biggest publicity stunts included staging a second edition of the Paris–Brest–Paris cycle-race in 1901, that he had created in 1891. L'Auto's response came on 19 December 1902, when Géo Lefèvre suggested a Tour de France which was an overwhelming circulation success in 1903. Le Vélo's response in 1903 was a running-race from Bordeaux to Paris, but it was too late.[1] Le Vélo disappeared in 1904 and Giffard eventually joined Desgrange's staff at L'Auto.[5]
Events organiser[edit]
Special 'Paris–Belfort' edition of Le Petit Journal from 18 June 1892
Paris–Brest–Paris cycle race[edit]
Giffard created the Paris–Brest–Paris cycle race in 1891, although it was promoted as Paris–Brest et retour in his editorials which he signed "Jean-sans-Terre". It is now established as the oldest long-distance cycling road event. Le Petit Journal described it as an "épreuve," a test of the bicycle's reliability and the rider's endurance. Riders were fully self-sufficient, carrying their own food and clothing and riding the same bicycle for the duration. The public response to his articles was so phenomenal that he had to change the rules and start charging 5 francs entrance, as 300 riders including 7 women signed up, although the women were later refused entrance. Each bicycle was given an 'official seal' at a two-day ceremony in front of the offices of Le Petit Journal. The 280 sealed machines included 10 tricycles, 2 Tandem bicycles, and 1 Penny-farthing.[6]
Participation was restricted to Frenchmen[6] and 99 of the 207 (or 280[6]) participants finished. Michelin's Charles Terront won in 71 hours 22 minutes after passing Dunlop's Jiel-Laval as he slept during the third night. Both had suffered punctures in their pneumatic tyres, but still enjoyed an advantage over riders on solid tires.
The first race was a coup for Le Petit Journal and the organisers decided to run it every ten years. The second race in 1901 was again organised by Giffard but on behalf of Le Vélo.
Paris–Belfort running race[edit]
On 5 June 1892,[1] Giffard organised a foot-race from Paris to Belfort, a course of over 380 kilometers, the first large scale long-distance running race on record. Over 1,100 competitors registered for the event and over 800 started from the offices of Le Petit Journal, at Paris Opera. This had also been the start point for the inaugural Paris–Brest–Paris cycle-race the previous year.[1] Newspaper circulation dramatically increased as the French public followed the progress of race participants, 380 of whom completed the course in under 10 days. In Le Petit Journal on 18 June 1892, Giffard praised the event as a model for the physical training of a nation faced by hostile neighbours.[1] The event was won by Constant Ramoge in 100 hours 5 minutes.[7]
Paris–Rouen, world's first motorcar race[edit]
Georges Lemaître classified 1st in his Peugeot 3hp
In 1894, when Giffard was editor in chief of newspaper Le Petit Journal, he organised what is considered to be the world's first car race from Paris to Rouen,[Note 2] sporting events were a tried and tested form of publicity stunt and circulation booster. The paper promoted it as a Competition for Horeseless Carriages (Concours des Voitures sans Chevaux) that were not dangerous, easy to drive, and cheap during the journey. Thus it blurred the distinctions between a reliability trial, a general event and a race, but the main prize was for the first across the finish line in Rouen. 102 people paid the 10 franc entrance fee.[2]
On 22 July 1894, 69 cars started the 50 km selection event that would show which entrants would be allowed to start the main event, the 127 km race from Paris to Rouen. The entrants ranged from serious manufacturers like Peugeot, Panhard or De Dion to amateur owners, and only 25 were selected for the main race.[2]
The race started from Porte Maillot and went through the Bois de Boulogne. Count Jules-Albert de Dion was first into Rouen after 6 hours and 48 minutes at an average speed of 19 km/h. He finished 3'30" ahead of Albert Lemaître (Peugeot), followed by Doriot (Peugeot) at 16'30", René Panhard (Panhard) at 33'30'' and Émile Levassor (Panhard) at 55'30". The official winners were Peugeot and Panhard as cars were judged on their speed, handling and safety characteristics, and De Dion's steam car needed a stoker which was forbidden.[2]
Paris Marathon[edit]
On 18 July 1896 Giffard organised the inaugural Paris Marathon on behalf of Le Petit Journal, although he was editor of Le Vélo, suggesting a cooperative commercial relationship.[1] The event followed on from the success of the marathon in the 1896 inaugural Olympics. Gifford started the race before a large crowd at the Porte Maillot, and it followed a course to Versailles and finished in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine. The race and the 200-franc prize were won by Len Hurst, a 24-year-old brick maker from England.[8]
Bordeaux–Paris foot race[edit]
Giffard organised the first foot-race from Bordeaux to Paris in 1903, which was won by Francois Peguet in 114 hours 22 minutes 20 seconds with Emil Anthoine in second place.[1][9]

La Reine Bicyclette[edit]
The phrase "la petite reine" has passed into the French language as a term for a bicycle. The origins are in 1891, when Giffard wrote a history of bicycle development, La Reine Bicyclette.[10][11] The expression was made more emblematic by the picture on the cover, of a young woman wearing a modern bicycle as a crown. The title was intended to describe the spirit that the bicycle had brought to her life. Cycling enthusiasts adopted the name, calling their machine "la petite reine".
La Guerre Infernale, Episode 2, January 1908
Le Sieur de Va-Partout[edit]
Le Sieur de Va-Partout was the first French book in a new style, the literature of reporting, and therefore of a new type of author: the writer-reporter.[12]
La Fin du Cheval[edit]
La Fin du Cheval was Giffard's 1899 humorous thesis on the inevitable replacement of the horse by the bicycle, then by the car. It was illustrated by Albert Robida.[13]
La Guerre Infernale[edit]
La Guerre Infernale was an adventure novel for children, published as a serial, an edition appearing every Saturday.[14] The 520 illustrations were created by Albert Robida.[15] It described a world war, years before it happened, describing an attack on London by the Germans and war between Japan and the United States. It was subsequently republished as a book.
Bust of Pierre Giffard [16]
Giffard stood in the national election of March 1900, a candidate in the 2nd constituency of Seine-Inférieure (Yvetot). A passionate left wing Dreyfussard, he failed due to the general Dreyfusine rift in French politics, and he was a victim of de Dion's sometimes violent anti-Dreyfussard stance.[Note 3] De Dion had distributed free copies of Giffard's humorous book La Fin du Cheval, claiming it to be Giffard's political program.
Death, honours and commemoration[edit]
In 1892, Giffard was appointed 'Chevalier' (Knight) of the Légion d'Honneur and in September 1900, at the Paris Exposition, he was appointed an 'Officier' (Officer) of the Légion d'Honneur.[17]
He died on 21 January 1922 at his home in Maisons-Laffitte where he had lived since 1883.
The rue de Pierre Giffard in the Paris suburb of Saint-Denis is named in his honour.
^ Hippolyte Auguste Marinoni was known for his invention of the rotary press, although Richard March Hoe patented such a device in 1847.
^ A previous motoring event had been held in 1887 but received only a single entrant. Georges Bouton and his passenger the Comte Jules-Albert de Dion had completed the 2 mile drive from the Bois de Boulogne to Porte Maillot in a steam powered vehicle of their own manufacture, the genesis of the De Dion-Bouton.
^ In 1899 at the Auteuil horse-race course in Paris, the President of France (Émile Loubet) was struck on the head by a 'walking stick' wielded by the Comte Albert de Dion, who subsequently served 15 days in gaol.

Nicolas Notaro is a rookie when it comes to college athletics.
However, as he and the NYU men's soccer team continue to pick up wins, Notaro, a freshman, looks right at home.
This week, Notaro was recognized as The Disney Soccer/National Soccer Coaches Association of America Division III Men's Player of the Week. He was also named Eastern College Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Week.
These titles are quite the feat for a freshman. The District of Columbia native has been lighting up scoreboards this season and has helped the Violets storm out to an undefeated start.
Notaro has already scored five goals and accumulated 10 total points. This week, Notaro shined brightest. He racked up 2 goals and an assist against the City College of New York on Sept. 10, then followed up against St. John Fisher College on Sept. 13 with another goal and assist.
It is not very often a freshman becomes such an important piece of a team's puzzle so quickly, but Notaro's teammates insist he fits right in.
Usually, it is the upperclassmen who are seen as role models by the younger players, but Notaro's stellar play has definitely had an effect on the Violets' tenured players as well.
"More impressive than Nick's excellent skill and technical ability is his work-rate and attitude on and off the field," sophomore forward Bryan Walsh said.
Senior midfielder Mickey Ingerman echoed Walsh's sentiments and commended the other rookies on the team.
Notaro's quality, combined with the consistent play of freshmen and upperclassmen alike, has made the Violets a force to be reckoned thus far. Going forward, watch for Notaro and his teammates to continue to improve as they move toward conference play.
"We all have our sights on our first UAA game and we know that we can surprise some people this season as the underdogs going into it," Notaro said. "The key will be to take it game by game, we can compete with anyone out there.
"I'd love to experience the NCAA tournament, but for now our focus will be on winning our next game and nothing more," Notaro added.

Ok so getting Twitter followers is the aim of the game. The more followers you have, the more people see your tweets, the more your brand gets out there which leads to potential customers and sales.
Example Happy To Connect Please Like My Facebook Page ….. Via Crowdfire.
This is one of the worst Twitter no no's and will almost always guarantee you a swift unfollow. Instead of sending an impersonal automatic Direct Message, thank the person in a public tweet which mentions their Twitter Handle.
Example New product now in our shop, check it out fb.me.8899n.
Facebook and Twitter are two totally different platforms and have two totally different audiences. The language and style of posting is different and what works on one, does not necessarily work on the other. Also it shows that you have no interest in your Twitter followers. Unlink your accounts and create original posts tailored for the different audiences.
Twitter is a Social media first and foremost. Yes we all use it for marketing and selling our products and services but only posting to sell will lose you followers. People buy from people; your customers want to see your personality, which shows you are interested and care about them. In general you should be following the 80/20 rule – 80% topical, things your customers would be interested in, chat with your followers etc. and 20% promotional posts.
Not responding to Mentions or Direct Messages.
Twitter is all about having that personal connection with your customers. Ignoring your customers or potential customers when they make a product or service inquiry or have an issue or problem with a product or service will lose you followers. Twitter needs to be monitored on a regular basis, just the same as you would monitor your email account.
So there you have it, my top Twitter tips. Be social, talk and engage with your followers, have a personality, Tweet in real time and most important stop using automated Tweets and Direct messages.
