These Are the Most Famous Supermodels of All Time
Being a model is not an easy task, let alone being a supermodel. Over the years we have seen many models walk the runway and be out of sight, but few of them made it big in the fashion modeling industry. These are the handful of famous faces who have endured the hardships of the industry and written their names in the history of fashion.
Fashion is always changing, from a time when the industry preferred skinny and lean models to times when we see the celebration of all body types and shapes. The newer generation of supermodels like Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner are writing history every day with their catwalks on the runways.
These supermodels have one thing in common besides being incredibly talented and extremely breathtaking, they are hard-working and remain true to their passion and profession. Here is the list of the top 20 models of all time that made the world their runway.
SUZY PARKER
She was one of the forerunner models. Suzy raised the bar for every model of her era, as she became the first model to earn more than 100,000 a year.

JEAN SHRIMPTON
With her huge eyes and perfect pout, Jean Shrimpton was an icon of the swinging sixties. During her career, Jean was dubbed "The It Girl" and is considered one of the first supermodels.

The British model revolutionized women's fashion with her gamine look and model femininity. Known for her dramatic eye makeup and extra long eyelashes, she is one of the most famous models of the era.

Somali beauty Iman was one of the first black women to dominate the fashion industry. She landed on magazine covers around the world at a time when black women weren't represented in the media. She was a muse for iconic designers like Gianni Versace, Thierry Mugler, Calvin Klein, Donna Karan, and Yves Saint Laurent.
The American supermodel skyrocketed to fame with her record-breaking three consecutive Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue covers in '79, '80, and '81.
British Vogue, January 1990 edition featured a black and white cover photographed by legendary photographer Peter Lindbergh. That's the magazine that established 'The Big Five' supermodels: Christy, Linda, Naomi, and Cindy, as well as Tatjana Patitz.
She is considered the 'Original Supermodel'. Crawford's intelligence, down-to-earth demeanor, and athletic full-bodied physique earned her a rare cross-gender appeal.
The German model was huge in the 90s with campaigns for Chanel, Jean Paul Gaultier, and Revlon to name a few. Among the OG supermodels, she has stayed away from the limelight and she is lesser known today.

If there's anyone who has left a legacy in the modeling world it's Linda Evangelista. Her statement line, "We don't wake up for less than $10,000 a day" made the headlines in the modeling industry.

No supermodel has risen to the heights of fashion quite like Claudia Schiffer. The German-born supermodel has appeared on over 1,000 magazine covers and campaigns across the globe, for a career that spans more than 30 years.
From her high cheekbones to that unmistakable wide smile, it's easy to see why Christy Turlington has ruled the runway since the 90s. In her decades spent owning the catwalks, we have seen Turlington transform into all manner of different characters.
Naomi Campbell is the undisputable Queen of the runway. Proclaimed as one of the six supermodels of the 90s by the fashion industry, Campbell had a career that millions dream of and is still going strong by walking the runway for Versace, Balenciaga, and Off White among others.
Heidi Klum is not just one of the most famous models of all time, she's also a talented designer and a successful businesswoman. After retiring from modeling, she became the host and producer of 'Project Runway'.

The British model and businesswoman rose to fame in the mid-'90s and is regarded as one of the most iconic supermodels of all time. Despite being small and unconventional looking, her striking demeanor landed her every contract.
Kate Moss turned into a poster girl for Heroin Chic with grungy, undeniably cool images which were controversial.
The six-foot tall Australian supermodel with long lustrous hair and legs that reach the end of the world, Elle Macpherson is not called 'The Body' for nothing.
She is known for her record five cover appearances for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue leading to her nickname. Apart from modeling, she has had a successful acting career.
GISELLE BUNDCHEN
Gisele Bundchen brought back the athletic aesthetic body, ending the thin era. In 2004, Gisele became famous for pioneering the 'horse walk'.
After several campaigns for major fashion houses and countless magazine editorials, she is one of the most famous models of all time.
Brazillian model Adriana Lima was named as the most valuable Victoria's Secret Angel and has been the longest-reigning Angel who walked for the lingerie brand for 19 years.
Having walked for almost every major fashion house, and fronted countless ad campaigns, from Michael Kors to Christian Dior. She represents the gold standard in the modeling profession because of her poise, confidence, and looks.
A self-proclaimed science nerd, she has amazing coding skills and has founded 'Kode with Klossy for empowering young girls to learn to code.
Standing at 5 foot 8 inches what makes Cara Delevingne stand out from other models is her sense of style and witty humor.
She has graced the covers of Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and Elle, and has walked the runway for prestigious designers like Chanel, Prada, and Burberry. She has had a successful acting career as well.
She started her career at 2 years old when she modeled for Baby Guess. Her stunning good looks and chic sensibility have made her the darling of the fashion world.

CLEVELAND — Former Cleveland Browns wide receiver Reggie Rucker, who served a prison sentence for wire fraud and making false statements to the FBI, has filed for bankruptcy.
Cleveland.com reports Rucker and his wife, Darlene, have filed their petition in bankruptcy court in Cleveland. The Warrensville Heights couple's filing says they owe more than $860,000 to entities including the IRS and the attorney who represented Rucker when he was prosecuted for stealing from his non-profit groups.
Rucker was sentenced to prison in 2016 and ordered to pay $110,000 for using the charities' money to pay gambling debts and personal expenses.
The Ruckers' petition says their combined monthly income is more than $6,300, but all but $10 of that goes toward their expenses.
Rucker played for the Cleveland Browns from 1975 to 1981.

Federation transports
The Verity was a Federation transport in service to Regulus Passenger Lines in the 24th century.
In 2366, on Stardate 43021.5, the Verity was reported lost in the Regulus sector along with all 38 people on board. Among the crew were the male Bolian captain Falvin Dor, female Caitian pilot M'grash and male Ithenite chief engineer Vorlis Klega. The passengers included physicist Doctor Wataru Takizawa and archaeologist Teresa Garcia who was going to the Regulus III Science Academy.
Fifteen years, two months, and four days later, in 2381, she reappeared having been displaced in time by a cosmic string Kerr loop. The passengers and crew elected to travel back in time through the anomaly, but were thwarted when Garcia sabotaged the Verity's engines.
The ship, crew and passengers were held in the Regulus system until they could be intercepted by the USS Everett, nearly two days later on March 12, 2381. The Everett, attached to the Federation Department of Temporal Investigations, transported DTI agents Marion Dulmur and Gariff Lucsly, who debriefed the passengers and crew.

Sky Map Highlights: June 2016
A Magnificent Celestial Lineup
If you stay up late during the month of June, the night sky offers a gorgeous lineup of stars and planets, plus the Moon. The display is at its best in the first 3 weeks of the month.
We'll be looking at a series of bright objects stretching in a long line from due west through south and into the southeast. You'll want to view it from a location where bright lighting does not interfere and where trees and buildings do not intrude on the horizon.
Beginning in the west, the bright star Regulus and the giant planet Jupiter are paired near one another in the constellation Leo, the Lion. Regulus, whose Arabic name means "the heart of the lion," is the 21st brightest star. Jupiter is markedly brighter than Regulus and shines with a steady light, whereas Regulus appears to twinkle. That's one way to distinguish a star from a planet. Stars typically twinkle, but planets do not. Earth and Jupiter are currently moving away from one another, so Jupiter will become slightly dimmer as the month wears on.
Next in line as we gaze leftward is the star Spica in Virgo, the Virgin. Shining brighter than Regulus, Spica ranks 16th among the brightest stars.
Brighter still and located high above Spica is Arcturus in the constellation Boötes, the Herdsman. Arcturus is the 4th brightest star, and some keen-eyed observers note that it has a very pale orangish color. Compared to Spica, which is most definitely a blazing white, Arcturus should appear at least off-white, if not with a hint of orange. The comparison will be easiest in the first week of June, when the Moon is not in the vicinity to wash out the view.
Ah, the Moon! It appears on the map at its location on the night of June 15, when it will be in its gibbous phase, about halfway between first quarter and full. The gibbous Moon shape is that of a lopsided oval. Just 5 days earlier, on June 10, the Moon will be far to the right, between Regulus and Jupiter, and will appear less than half-illuminated. On each succeeding night, the Moon grows "fatter" (more of it becomes sunlit from our perspective) and moves left.
Farther left on the map is the trio of Mars, Saturn, and Antares—three objects that will remain in close proximity for the next few months. The planet Mars is the brightest of the three, with the planet Saturn next, followed by the star Antares. Note how Antares twinkles but Mars and Saturn do not. Antares is the 15th brightest star, just a fraction brighter than Spica. There is a nice color contrast between the two, with Antares slightly orangey-white compared to Spica's bright white.

The word "planet" derives from a Greek word meaning "wanderer." Planets do indeed wander compared to the barely moving stars.
A simple but rewarding sky-gazing project for the summer is to note the changing positions of planets Mars and Saturn with respect to the star Antares. It can be fun to make a simple sketch of the area once every week or two. You will notice that Antares stays in precisely the same location at all times. Like nearly all stars, Antares's movement is imperceptible during a person's lifetime.
Not so, the planets; they are always on the move! Relative to Antares, Saturn will spend the summer meandering very slowly to the left and then reverse course and move slowly right. Mars will zip along much faster, passing close to Antares in late August before speeding on to the "Teapot" of Sagittarius by October.

Modeling heavy metal release in the epiphytic lichen Evernia prunastri
In this study, the release of Cu2+ and Zn2+ was investigated and modeled in the epiphytic lichen Evernia prunastri. Samples were incubated with solutions containing these metals at ecologically relevant concentrations (10 and 100 μM) and then transplanted to a remote area and retrieved after 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, and 18 months. The results showed that, after 12 months, all samples faced similar metal reductions of ca. 80–85%, but after this period, all the involved processes seem to be no longer capable of generating further reductions. These results suggest that the lichen E. prunastri can provide information about environmental improvements after exposure to high or very high pollution levels in a relatively short period of time.

Originally from Blackwater, Queensland, Joshua Michael Thomas was born on 26 May 1987 under the star sign Gemini. The 34-year-old comedian is Australian by nationality and belongs to the Caucasian ethnicity. He matriculated from Kenmore State High School in 2004. He later studied for a Bachelor of Creative Industries at the Queensland University of Technology but dropped out after a year.
Thomas won the Melbourne International Comedy Festival's RAW Comedy Award in 2005. He also made the finals of So You Think You're Funny at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. His first solo show, Please Like Me debuted in 2007 at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

We interrupt our regularly scheduled Friday programming to bring you the social experiment of the decade. And by "decade," I mean today. Or right at this very moment. Whatever.
This is not the social experiment where I stand in the middle of Highway 70, pointing up at the sky, trying to get commuters to look and then wait for the ensuing 68 car pileup. No, this is of much greater value than that, and believe it or not, even more entertaining.
My close, personal friend Lanny Donoho is trying to get on The Jay Leno Show. Now, for those of you who have heard of Lanny, you are now convinced that I am blowing smoke that he's a close, personal friend. After, all, the "CPF" tag is what Unknown Christians always say about Professional Christians, such as Lanny. But I've known this guy since I was a teenager and he was drawing his first Social Security check. I have his cell number (not that he ever answers) and he has mine (which explains the late night crank calls). We did a tour in 'Nam together. His oldest son's name is Andrew and my name is Danny and the first three letters of each of our names are the same which means that he named his son after me. And once I asked him, "Lanny, settle it once and for all: am I your close personal friend?" And I can almost be positive that he said yes. And now that he's 122 years old, I want to help him gain a national audience.
Editor's Note: Tell 'em why you really want to help him.
Because I got a direct message from him on Twitter early Friday morning questioning my allegiance to our friendship because I haven't stepped up to the plate on this social experiment thing and he also may or may not have said disparaging things about my mother.
If you don't know Lanny, he's a big deal in the world. He's the host of Catalyst, a big-deal gathering of thousands of leaders who get together annually to groom their goatees and compare fashion tips about shirts with embroidered dragons on them. He's founded a slew of organizations designed to bring relevance to the church, purpose to the lives of teenagers, and relief to other countries in the world. And that last accomplishment is exactly the reason he wants to be on Leno. Lanny is part of a couple of organizations called 143million.org and 410Bridge, which is changing the face of Africa and around the world.
Which brings us back to the social experiment. At this very moment there are 13,000 people attending Catalyst in Atlanta, and Lanny has every last one of 'em tweeting #lannyonleno. The hope is that Leno's people will take note of Thursday's Twitter crash (coincidence? I think not.) and bring Lanny on to the show, where he will display his collection of falcons and poisonous snakes.
Editor's Note: I think you're thinking of Jack Hanna.
Right you are. Lanny will be telling a nationwide audience about how they can be involved in bringing hope to Africa, which I think is a pretty darn worthy goal. So for the next 24 hours I'm going to participate in a hourly tweet-off, where I toss #lannyonleno into every last tweet. If you're a twit on Twitter, I need you to re-tweet those things, and make up your own, so that we can push #lannyonleno to a Twitter trend and get this guy on the show. In return, I expect nothing except maybe for Lanny to tell people that I took a creative approach and they should follow me on Twitter and maybe invite me to fly to New York with him and perhaps take back some of the mean and nasty comments he may or may not have made.
So that's it. Check out Lanny's site and subscribe to his feed, and enjoy the next 24 hours. If you need me, I'll be on Highway 70 pointing at the sky.
see now this is why i always wanted you to be on my staff and why i think there is a possibility that you are my son. you are the only one who has the creative ability (aside from my pet platypus who has a prosthetic hand) who can write like that. and i don't mean the scratches you make with those crayons. it's the content. the flow of streaming content that filters through the cerebral cortex and gets captured by the proteins affixed to the hypothalamus and then pushed on through the system to created new neural nets. that is what i am talking about. some people just write words. you create new neural nets. im proud of you son.

The Carnarvon Space and Technology Museum Needs our Help.
"It was interesting to see how quickly the history is rewritten.
A nice bit of video from Buzz Aldrin's arrival in Carnarvon for the opening of the new Space and Technology Museum. The site is the old OTC and NASA property at Carnarvon in Western Australia.
Look carefully at the facsimile cover sheet below and you will see two dishes at Jamesburg. One is in front of the other slightly obscuring it, but two dishes are certainly shown. There was only one that was ever constructed. Why? An artist's whim? No!
During a Space conference in the US last week, I had the opportunity to talk about the importance of Carnarvon to the Apollo 11 mission and other Apollo missions with Apollo 11 moon-walker Buzz Aldrin.
In early June 2012 I visited the Jamesburg site with the intention of surveying the site and turning it into a data centre. The site was abandoned by AT&T in 2002 following the attacks on the NY World Trade Center buildings. It was thought by AT&T that Jamesburg was too vulnerable to aircraft attack of a similar nature. I recently set up a company that is now looking to buy the site. The 2 day visit was like a trip back in time as many of the site's offices and systems were still fully intact.
This is a big story for the exOTC staffers. The preservation of these sites is a huge leap forward over the dishes that were left rust and corrode at Carnarvon. I so wish I could make it for the celebrations but I expect that there will be a few exOTC staff in the area and traveling for the big event.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi ripped into Donald Trump Thursday morning during a news conference on Capitol Hill, describing Trump's accusation that President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were the "founders of ISIS" as "verbal poo poo."
"It's reminiscent of demagogues who want to be in the press no matter what they have to say," Pelosi said Thursday morning. "They make their verbal poo poo any place to get attention. And this is a tactic."
Pelosi was referring to an accusation Trump hurled during a rally Wednesday night in Florida, in which he said Obama founded the Islamic State group, and Clinton was the "co-founder."
"ISIS is honoring President Obama," Trump said. "He is the founder of ISIS. He is the founder of ISIS, okay? He's the founder. He founded ISIS."
Of course, neither Obama nor Clinton "founded" ISIS in a literal sense. Both have vowed to fight and destroy the group, which has taken credit for numerous attacks across the globe.
Conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt gave Trump an option Thursday morning to re-frame his attack on Obama and Clinton by saying their policies played a role in the rise of ISIS, also called ISIL or Daesh.
However Trump stuck by his statement.
At the Thursday news conference, Pelosi didn't just attack Trump's Islamic State remark.
She also called him out for suggesting "Second Amendment people" could do something about Clinton's ability to nominate Supreme Court justices.
"The comment that was made by the Republican nominee about the Second Amendment — it was clear that he didn't understand that the words of a presidential candidate, the nominee, weigh a ton," Pelosi said.
"There are many other references he could have said about getting out the vote," she continued. "To choose the Second Amendment in the manner in which he did, perhaps unwittingly, but the double meaning that it had, wittingly or not, is ... very problematic and scary."
Trump and his campaign have since sought to clarify the remark, saying he meant they could organize and stop anti-Second Amendment nominees. But many — including Clinton herself — have said the words could be seen as a call to incite violence.

Universal Health Coverage Day: Nearly 50% of the treatments under PMJAY are availed by women!
Here is how PMJAY bridges the gender gap by providing access to healthcare services to women.
Name: Santosh | Age: 44 years | Place: Gurgaon, Haryana | Package: PTCA double stent | Amount: Rs 90,000/-
In a bid to give access to health services to people belonging to every strata of the society, December 12 is celebrated as the Universal Health Coverage Day all across the world. The theme of 2020 is "Health for all: protect everyone. To end this crisis and build a safer and health systems that protect us all now." Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana is the Government of India's attempt in the direction of Universal Health Coverage and it bridges the gender gap by providing access to healthcare services to women. It is to be noted that of all the hospital admissions, 49.8% of the treatment (insights.pmjay.gov.in) has been availed by women.
The "2018 Gender Gap Index" of the World Economic Forum and its sub-index, "Health and Survival" ranked India at 108th position in the overall index and 147th out of 149 in the sub-index. Here is how Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY is empowering women in accessing healthcare services
* Families with no adult male members is one of the deprivation criteria for identifying target beneficiaries, which will ensure the reach of the scheme to a large number of women.
* Cap of five beneficiaries from a family in earlier schemes worked against women. It was seen that families prefer to prioritise the male members over females, excluding them from availing free health care benefits. Ayushman Bharat PM-JAY does not have any ceiling on number of family members hence the right to free healthcare under the scheme is being equally exercised by male and female members of the family.
* Being a man or a woman has significant impact on health due to biological and gender related differences. The packages include a large number of health conditions that exclusively, or primarily, affect women.
* Under Ayushman Bharat, individual e-cards are being issued which gives every female beneficiary an individual sense of entitlement to claim their right to free healthcare.
Women-specific DATA points:
* Top 5 states, where women are availing higher number of treatments:
1. Tamil Nadu
2. Kerala
3. Chhattisgarh
4. Karnataka
5. Andhra Pradesh
* Top 5 specialities availed by women:
1. General Medicine
2. Obstetrics & Gynaecology
3. General Surgery
4. Medical Oncology
5. Opthalmology
6. Infectious Diseases
A lot of beneficiaries feel grateful to have been given a new lease on life and resident of Gurgaon, Santosh is one of them. Aged 44, she, her three children and her ageing in-laws were all dependent on her husband, whose sudden demise further threw the family into distress. Santosh took up the baton, where her husband left off and filled the void. The family slowly began healing and on the road to recovery. Just when things were getting back to normal, Santosh noticed that she was finding it hard to climb up and down the stairs.
However, a sense of sacrifice and service prevented her from doing anything about it. Besides, she did not want to cause anxiety in the family again. She continued as if nothing had happen, hiding her pain and discomfort and turning a blind eye to her condition.
Soon, she got to know about Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY); Haryana Health Protection Mission and the various benefits that were available under this health scheme. Since, her pain was becoming unbearable, she decided to go to a hospital and get checked. She found out that she had two blocked valves in her heart and needed immediate surgery. This timely intervention truly saved her and helped her secure the future of her children.
Besides bridging gender gap, PM JAY has been immensely successful in providing healthcare services to the needy. As per the latest government data, 1.4 crore cashless treatments worth INR. 17, 535 crores across 24,653 (Public: Private = 54:46) empaneled hospitals have been approved under the scheme. Also, the scheme is at the forefront of battling the pandemic right now. Currently, the COVID 19 testing and treatment numbers are 10,23,651.

The William H. Gratwick house was designed by H. H. (Henry Hobson) Richardson (1838–1886). Due to his death in 1886, the house was his last commission. The building was finished two years later in 1888 by supervising architect Herbert Burdett (1854–1891) of Shepley, Rutan & Coolidge.
The house was demolished in 1919 by Frank Goodyear, Jr. and Stephen Clement, who divided the land between their large estates on Delaware Ave. The site of the Goodyear mansion (and the site of the Gratwick mansion) is now parking facilities for the American Red Cross. The owner of the house, William Gratwick (1839–1899), was the part owner of the lumber firm Gratwick, Smith, & Fryer Lumber Company and president of the YMCA.

Meet The Company That Fits Big Ideas Into Small Boxes
by Shea Parker
Aug 22 2017 • 2:00 PM
You may not have heard of him, but for the last ten years, John Clowdus has quietly and unapologetically been producing and releasing the games that he wants to make. He does this through his company Small Box Games, and the titles they put out go for a lot less than what you might be used to, most games selling at $15 plus shipping. They're able to do this by utilizing pre-orders and small print runs with little to no excess.
While this business model is not unheard of these days, especially with Kickstarter making it a viable option for new and old designers alike, the fact that John has been doing this for a decade now (starting before Kickstarter even existed) is worth taking note of. And Small Box never falls victim to the bloating that other crowdfunded games often do. When they start a new Kickstarter it runs for ten days with only a few stretch goals in mind. This lets them make exactly the game they want to make, no more, no less, and ship it to you quickly in one of their signature black-and-gold boxes.
As is the nature of their selection, most games they've made are out of print, but here are three that you can either buy now or pre-order.
Omen: A Reign of War
Arguably their best game, and definitely their most popular, Omen: A Reign of War has had several reprints and additions made over the years. In this competitive, two player card game you and your opponent are two brothers and sons of Zeus, both ready to conquer all of Ancient Greece. To win the favor of the gods you'll have to prove your worth through your mastery of tactics, combat, and the soldiers, beasts, and oracles that make up your army.
Omen excels at both fast-paced, cutthroat competition and careful planning and strategy. Fans of Magic: The Gathering and Android: Netrunner will find a lot to love here. While it isn't a collectible card game, the depth of Omen might just surprise you. The game really shines when you start drafting your decks instead of drawing from the same deck (which you'll start with to learn the game). Soon you'll learn the value of each card and how it'll work with the other cards you're drafting. And soon after that you'll realize that you're playing Omen at every single two-player game night you have.
You can buy the Omega Edition now, which comes with an expansion and all the deluxe goodies it's accumulated over the years, but as of this writing, there are only 45 copies left, so maybe act quickly.
Seii Daimyo
Seii Daimyo is a reskin of the first game that Small Box Games ever made, which went by the name of Politico. Now set in the Warring States period of Japan, The Sengoku Jidai, each player is an aspiring Daimyo with dreams of unifying Japan into a Shogunate under their name. In order to do this you'll need to utilize your Samurai and foot soldiers (Ashigaru) to gain and keep control of the various locations in the game.
Seii Daimyo is all about predicting the moves your friends are going to make and capitalizing on them. Each player has an identical hand of role cards with one Samurai and one Ashigaru. Whenever you play a role, for each opponent who played a different card, the card you played becomes more powerful. The Samurai are all about seizing and controlling the locations that come up, while the Ashigaru allow you to draw and play Clan cards, which can be used for their special effects or saved for points at the end of the game.
While Seii Daimyo is a 2-4 player game, it is strongly recommended for three or four players. And while it hasn't yet been released, you can pre-order it on Small Box Games' website.
Hemlock: Dark Promenade
In a place where night lasts for years, you and your opponent are the leaders of ancient houses in the city of Hemloch. Strange people populate this city, and you'll need to work with them in order to assert influence in the four districts and gain control over the land before the sun rises. These districts are represented by cards in a 3×3 grid. You and your opponent will play minions to affect one of your three avenues, which will be three cards in a row for one player and three cards in a column for the other.
The interaction can be subtle, forcing you to adopt some mental gymnastics to determine how each turn will go. The game itself is quick, but still maintains the depth that is to be expected with Small Box Games'…games. And all of the delicate interplay and manipulation serves to highlight the theme with its haunting aesthetic. Dark Promenade is actually a sequel to the original Hemlock game, and it looks to be a marked improvement, keeping the best parts of the setting and goals while simplifying some of the mechanics. This game is also available to preorder.
Edit: It was just announced that Small Box Games has been bought by Kolossal Games and will be reprinting Omen: A Reign Of War along with other titles. Excellent news if this run goes out of print before you get your hands on a copy.

These divrei Torah were adapted from the hashkafa portion of Rabbi Yissocher Frand's Commuter Chavrusah Tapes on the weekly portion: CD #937 – The Obligation To Learn T'Nach. Good Shabbos!
Parshas Ki Sisa includes the mitzvah of Ketores [Incense]. The Ketores was offered twice a day on the Golden Mizbayach [Altar] situated in front of the Kodesh Hakadashim [Holy of Holies]. Klal Yisrael enjoyed tremendous benefits by virtue of offering the Ketores. The Ketores was made up of various plants, spices, and herbs which provided a pleasant aroma to the Beis HaMikdash.
The Chofetz Chaim writes, based on this Mishna (in his sefer Shmiras HaLashon): If Beis Din [the Jewish Court] instructs someone to do something and he ignores their instruction, it is permissible to speak negatively about him (e.g. — that he has disobeyed Beis Din). He cites the Mishna as precedent for the fact that a person may record someone's evil practices in writing in the annals of the city even if that will preserve the information for all eternity.
The Gemara says that the Alexandrian experts were able to make a mixture that duplicated the aroma of the Ketores, however they did not know how to make the smoke of the burning incense rise up in a straight column as was the tradition of the Ketores of the House of Avtinas. The smoke from the Alexandrian Ketores dissipated and filled the entire Heichal of the Beis HaMikdash, rather than rising up straight as a rod.
The Chachomim went back to the House of Avtinas and again demanded that they reveal the secret ingredient that made the smoke go up straight. Again, they refused and kept the secret to themselves. The Gemara says the Chachomim concluded, "Whatever the Holy Blessed Be He has created, He has created for His Honor as it is written 'All the actions of Hashem are for Him' [Mishlei 16:4]" [Yoma 38a].
Rabbeinu Chananel interprets "G-d has taken action by giving extra wisdom to this one more than to this one for His sake so that His work will be accomplished by the one He wants to accomplish it." G-d gave the House of Avtinas the secret of how to do this and we can infer that He wants them to do it and no one else. Sometimes G-d gives individuals certain knowledge or talents to accomplish something and this is because He wants specifically them to be able to accomplish the task.
The Chachomim had no choice but to rehire the Family of Avtinas to be in charge of the Ketores manufacture. The Talmud relates that the Chachomim sent them a message (wanting to tell them that they had their job back), but they refused to come. The Gemara says the Chachomim had to double their salary before they would take their job back. Originally, they were paid 12 maneh a day and now they received 24 maneh a day.
The Maharsha writes that the Chachomim did not believe this answer. They felt that the only reason the family was refusing to reveal their knowledge was to keep the monopoly on the Ketores. They had a cartel that they did not want to lose. For this reason, the Mishna listed them among the families who deserved condemnation and based on this the Chofetz Chaim wrote that we are allowed to publicly condemn people who disobey Beis Din — even if they have an excuse for doing so — if Beis Din feels their excuse is self-serving and insincere.
The Gemara then discusses other details about the House of Avtinas. At the end of the discussion, the Gemara relates the following: "From here (this incident with Beis Avtinas) Ben Azai said 'B'Shimcha Yikra-oocha u'bimkomcha yosheevucha' (by your name you will be called and in your place you will be seated)". Rashi interprets this to mean: A person should not worry and say "so and so is taking away my livelihood" for regardless you will be called back and returned to your proper station." In other words, everyone will ultimately receive the income and the property to which he is entitled. No one can take away his neighbor's livelihood (against the Will of G-d).
Rav Pam writes in his sefer that we see a very important thing from this Gemara. If based on Jewish law, a person may open up a competing business [without infringing on the halachos of 'hasagas gevul' (encroaching on the territory of one's neighbor)] then the original business owner does not need to worry that the second business will negatively affect his own. A person's income is predetermined from the beginning of one year until the beginning of the next year. What is your is yours and what is his is his.
Several months ago, there was a person in town who owned a certain type of business. He heard that there was a competing type of business that was going to open. He and another owner of a similar business had a meeting. He suggested that they should collude to drop the prices on a certain product that this other business was going to feature, such that the new fellow would not even be able to get his new venture off the ground. The plan was to put him out of business before he even started.
The person who was contemplating this scheme asked me whether he should do this and I told him that he should not. If the newcomer al pi din [according to Jewish law] has a right to open a new business (and he did have that right) then you need to realize that whatever is going to be yours is yours and whatever is going to be his is going to be his. This is what we see from the Gemara of Beis Avtinas.
Kol Poel Hashem L'Ma'aneyhu [all of Hashem's actions are for His sake]. The Almighty wanted the House of Avtinas to have the exclusive right to make the Ketores, for whatever the reason might be, so nothing is going to affect that. Not only that, but they wound up charging double — which the Gemara did not like — but nevertheless Ben Azzai is telling us that no one can take away his neighbor's livelihood against the Will of G-d.
In the course of our lives, this comes up so often. "If this person does this, it will put me out of business…" Do not worry! "B'Shimcha Yikra-oocha u'bimkomcha yosheevucha." What is destined to be yours will always remain yours.

Bill's principal research focus is sports analytics defined as the statistical analysis of performance data within an evidence-based coaching regime in both individual and team sports to support decisions on talent identification, player recruitment, athletic development, training priorities, team selection, game tactics and injury management. He has published academic papers on player valuation, managerial efficiency, the sporting and financial performance of football clubs, and the relationship between wage costs and sporting performance. Bill has worked with a number of elite sports teams around the world. He has acted as technical analyst for Saracens and London Irish in the Aviva Premiership (rugby union) as well as providing statistical analysis to support the SkySports coverage of Super League (rugby league). He has also worked with Billy Beane, the General Manager of the Oakland Athletics in Major League Baseball, whose application of sports analytics has been the subject of the Hollywood film and best-selling book, Moneyball. Bill currently works as data analyst with AZ Alkmaar in the Dutch Eredivisie (football). The practical application of Bill's research in sports analytics has been developed into a REF impact case study.
