paragraph: Roger Staubach

paragraph: Roger Thomas Staubach (born February 5, 1942), nicknamed "Roger the Dodger", "Captain America" and "Captain Comeback", is an American former football quarterback in the National Football League (NFL).

paragraph: He attended the U.S. Naval Academy where he won the 1963 Heisman Trophy, and after graduation he served in the U.S. Navy, including a tour of duty in Vietnam. Staubach joined the Dallas Cowboys in 1969 and played with the club during all 11 seasons of his career. He led the team to the Super Bowl five times, four as the starting quarterback. He led the Cowboys to victories in Super Bowl VI and Super Bowl XII. Staubach was named Most Valuable Player of Super Bowl VI, becoming the first of four players to win both the Heisman Trophy and Super Bowl MVP, along with Jim Plunkett, Marcus Allen and Desmond Howard. He was named to the Pro Bowl six times during his 11-year NFL career. He is currently executive chairman of Jones Lang LaSalle.

paragraph: Section::::Early years.

paragraph: Roger Staubach was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, the son of Elizabeth (née Smyth) and Robert Staubach. Staubach is of partial German descent. He grew up in Silverton, a northeastern suburb of Cincinnati. Roger was an only child. He was also a Boy Scout as a youth. Roger attended St. John the Evangelist Catholic School and graduated from the Catholic high school Purcell High School in Cincinnati (now named Purcell Marian High School) in 1960.

paragraph: Section::::U.S. Naval Academy.

paragraph: After one year at New Mexico Military Institute in Roswell, Staubach entered the U.S. Naval Academy in 1961 and played quarterback for the Midshipmen. As a third-class midshipman (sophomore) in 1962, he got his first opportunity to play in the third game of the season, against the University of Minnesota on October 6. He relieved starter Ron Klemick as the Minnesota defense, led by Bobby Bell and Carl Eller, was stifling in its 21–0 victory. Staubach was 0–2 passing and was sacked twice for -24 yards.

paragraph: A week later, playing against Cornell University, with the offense failing, Hall of Fame coach Wayne Hardin decided to put Staubach into the game to see if he could improve the team's offense. He led Navy to six touchdowns, throwing for 99 yards and two touchdowns while running for 88 yards and another score as Navy won 41–0.

paragraph: A few weeks later, Staubach started again in the famous Army–Navy game. John F. Kennedy (himself a former naval officer), who just 37 days earlier had negotiated the end of the Cuban Missile Crisis, attended the game, performing the coin toss. Staubach led the team to a 34–14 upset over Army, throwing for two touchdowns and running for another.

paragraph: In his second class (junior) season of 1963, he won the Heisman Trophy, Maxwell Award, and the Walter Camp Memorial Trophy while leading the Midshipmen to a 9–1 regular season record and a final ranking of No. 2 in the nation. He appeared on the cover of "Time" in October; he would also have been on the cover of "Life" magazine's November 29, 1963 issue, but for the assassination of President Kennedy.

paragraph: On New Year's Day, the Midshipmen lost the national championship to the No. 1 team, the University of Texas, in the 1964 Cotton Bowl. Earlier that season, Staubach led Navy to a 35–14 road victory in its annual rivalry with Notre Dame. Navy did not beat Notre Dame again until 2007, 44 years later.

paragraph: During three seasons at Navy, Staubach completed 292 of 463 passes with 18 touchdowns and 19 interceptions, while gaining a school record 4,253 yards of total offense. Staubach is the last player from a military academy to win the Heisman Trophy.

paragraph: As a senior in 1964, he injured his left heel in the opening game victory over Penn State and missed the next four games, and Navy finished the season at 3–6–1.

paragraph: The Naval Academy retired Staubach's jersey number (12) during his graduation ceremony after his senior season. In 1981 Staubach was enshrined in the College Football Hall of Fame. In 2007 Staubach was ranked No. 9 on ESPN's Top 25 Players In College Football History list.

paragraph: Section::::U.S. Naval Academy.:Statistics.

paragraph: His collegiate football career completed, Staubach closed out his Academy sports career as captain of the Academy's 1965 baseball team.

paragraph: Section::::U.S. Navy officer.

paragraph: During his junior year at the Naval Academy, Staubach's color-blindness was detected and he was commissioned directly into the Supply Corps, which did not necessitate being able to tell the difference between red (port) and green (starboard) lights or to discern the color differences in electrical circuitry.

paragraph: After graduating from the Naval Academy in June 1965, Staubach could have requested an assignment in the United States, but he chose to volunteer for a one-year tour of duty in Vietnam. He served as a Supply Corps officer for the Navy at the Chu Lai base/port (a secondary air base providing relief for Da Nang Air Base approximately to the northwest) until 1967. Staubach supervised 41 enlisted men.

paragraph: Staubach returned from Vietnam in September 1967, and spent the rest of his naval career in the United States. He played football on various service teams to prepare for his future career in the National Football League.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.

paragraph: Staubach was a tenth-round "future" selection in the 1964 NFL Draft by the Cowboys. The NFL allowed the Cowboys to draft him one year before his college eligibility was over (because he was four years out of high school), although due to his four-year military commitment, he would not play professionally until 1969 as a 27-year-old rookie. He was also drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in the 16th round (122nd choice overall) of the 1964 American Football League Draft, also with a future selection.

paragraph: While still in the Navy during 1968, he went to the Cowboys rookie camp, using most of his annual military leave. During 1969, Staubach resigned his naval commission just in time to join the Cowboys training camp. The Cowboys won the first NFC title in 1970 with Craig Morton starting at quarterback, but lost to the Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl V, losing by three points on a last-second field goal.

paragraph: In 1971, Morton began the season as the starter, but after a loss to the New Orleans Saints, Staubach assumed the role. However, in a game against the Chicago Bears during the seventh week of that season, coach Tom Landry alternated Staubach and Morton on each play, sending in the quarterbacks with the play call from the sideline. Dallas gained almost 500 yards of offense but committed seven turnovers that resulted in a 23–19 loss to a mediocre Bears squad that dropped the Cowboys to 4–3 for the season, two games behind the Washington Redskins in the NFC East race.

paragraph: Staubach assumed the full-time quarterbacking duties in a week-eight victory over the St. Louis Cardinals and led the Cowboys to 10 consecutive victories, including their first Super Bowl victory, 24–3 over the Miami Dolphins in Super Bowl VI in January 1972. He was named the game's MVP, completing 12 out of 19 passes for 119 yards and two touchdowns and rushing for 18 yards. After the season, he negotiated his own contract, a three-year deal at about $75,000

paragraph: In 1972, Staubach missed most of the season with a separated shoulder, but he relieved Morton in a divisional playoff against the San Francisco 49ers and threw two touchdown passes in the last 90 seconds to win With that performance, he won back his regular job and did not relinquish it again during his career.

paragraph: Staubach led the Cowboys to a second Super Bowl win in the 1977 season. He threw for 183 yards and a touchdown, with no interceptions, in Dallas' 27–10 victory in Super Bowl XII over the Denver Broncos, led by his former teammate Morton. Staubach also led the Cowboys to Super Bowl appearances in Super Bowl X and Super Bowl XIII, where they lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers both times by a total of eight points.

paragraph: Staubach's offensive teammates included standout receivers "Bullet" Bob Hayes, Lance Alworth, Drew Pearson and Golden Richards, tight ends Mike Ditka, Billy Joe Dupree and Jackie Smith, tackle Rayfield Wright and running backs Robert Newhouse, Calvin Hill and Tony Dorsett. Dorsett, Hayes and Wright are in the Hall of Fame, as are Alworth, Ditka and Smith (although those three were all with the Cowboys only at the end of their careers).

paragraph: In his final NFL season of 1979, Staubach scored career highs in completions (267), passing yards (3,586) and touchdown passes (27), with just 11 interceptions. He retired at the conclusion of the season in order to protect his long-term health, declining the Cowboys' offer for two more seasons. He suffered 20 concussions in his playing career, including six in which he said he was "knocked out". After suffering two concussions in 1979, a doctor at Cornell told Staubach that while his brain tests were fine at the moment, another concussion could have life-altering consequences. He was succeeded as the Cowboys starting quarterback by Danny White.

paragraph: Overall, Staubach finished his 11 NFL seasons with 1,685 completions for 22,700 yards and 153 touchdowns, with 109 interceptions. He also gained 2,264 rushing yards and scored 21 touchdowns on 410 carries. For regular-season games, he had a .750 winning percentage. Staubach recorded the highest passer rating in the NFL in four seasons (1971, 1973, 1978, 1979) and led the league with 23 touchdown passes in 1973. He was an All-NFC choice five times and selected to play in six Pro Bowls (1971, 1975–1979).

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Legacy and accolades.

paragraph: Staubach retired from football in March 1980 as the second-highest-rated passer of all time at 83.4 (behind Otto Graham at 86.6), and was voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1985. In 1999, he was ranked No. 29 on "The Sporting News" list of the 100 Greatest Football Players, the second-ranked Cowboy behind Bob Lilly.

paragraph: Staubach was one of the most famous NFL players of the 1970s. Known as "Roger The Dodger" for his scrambling abilities, "Captain America" as quarterback of America's Team, and also as "Captain Comeback" for his fourth quarter game-winning heroics, Staubach had a penchant for leading scoring drives which gave the Cowboys improbable victories. He led the Cowboys to 23 game-winning drives (15 comebacks) during the fourth quarter, with 17 of those in the final two minutes or in overtime.

paragraph: Perhaps Staubach's most famous moment was the "Hail Mary pass" in the 1975 playoff game against the Minnesota Vikings. With seconds on the clock and the Cowboys trailing 14–10, Staubach launched a 50-yard bomb to wide receiver Drew Pearson, who caught the pass and strode into the end zone for a 17–14 victory. After the game, Staubach said he threw the ball and said a "Hail Mary". Since then, any last-second pass to the end zone in a desperate attempt to score a game-winning or tying touchdown is referred to as a "Hail Mary" pass.

paragraph: Staubach was named The Walter Camp "Man of the Year" in 1983, and was awarded the Davey O'Brien Legends Award in 2001.

paragraph: In 1996, the U.S. Navy Memorial Foundation awarded Staubach its Lone Sailor Award for his naval service.

paragraph: On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of Super Bowl VI in 2002, Staubach, accompanied by former President George H.W. Bush, flipped the coin at Super Bowl XXXVI, played at the Louisiana Superdome, where his only other Super Bowl victory took place.

paragraph: On January 25, 2007, Staubach was named chairman of the North Texas Super Bowl XLV Bid Committee, whose goal was to have the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex host the Super Bowl in 2011. On May 23, 2007, the NFL chose Dallas as the host city of Super Bowl XLV.

paragraph: In 2010, Staubach was named the No. 1 Dallas Cowboy of all time according to a poll conducted by the "Dallas Morning News".

paragraph: In November 2018 he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

paragraph: Section::::Personal life.

paragraph: Section::::Personal life.:Real estate.

paragraph: In 1977, he started a commercial real estate business, The Staubach Company, in partnership with Robert Holloway Jr., an associate of Henry S. Miller. He had prepared by working in the off-seasons from 1970 until 1977 for the Henry S. Miller Company. Staubach began working with real estate because "I couldn't have retired at my age and just played golf. First of all, they didn't pay quarterbacks what they do today. And I was 27 with three kids. I kept thinking about [what would happen] if some linebacker takes off my head and I can't play anymore." He said "Henry Miller Jr. was a lot like [legendary Cowboys coach Tom] Landry. They both had similar haircuts ... they both had phenomenal integrity, great work ethic, and they could transfer their strengths to other people."

paragraph: The Staubach Company has been his primary endeavor since retirement from football. The company first developed several office buildings; Holloway managed construction while Staubach found tenants. In 1982, Staubach bought out Holloway and shifted the company's emphasis from commercial development to representing corporate clients seeking to lease or buy space. This proved fortuitous as a boom in Dallas office construction followed by a recession in the Texas oil industry left the city with excess office space, so companies representing tenants wielded greater influence. The company has worked with major businesses including AT&T, McDonald's Corporation, Hospital Corporation of America and K Mart Corporation. The company was also involved with residential development, with ownership stakes in 27 apartments and other real estate projects in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Some of these were in partnership with Cowboys teammate Bob Breunig through S.B.C. Development Corporation, then a subsidiary of the Staubach Company. Others were collaborations with local developers and investors, including Ross Perot. He served as its chairman and CEO until June 20, 2007, when he announced he would resign as CEO of the multibillion-dollar real estate company he started 30 years earlier.

paragraph: On July 11, 2008, The Staubach Company was sold to Jones Lang LaSalle for $613 million. Staubach and his children's trust would gross more than $100 million from the sale by 2013. The sale provided an initial payment of $9.27 per Staubach share with additional payments due during the ensuing five years for a total of approximately $29/share. Staubach took half of his first payment in Jones Lang LaSalle stock which was then trading at approximately $59.50/share. Staubach currently serves as executive chairman of Jones Lang LaSalle.

paragraph: On December 27, 2011, Staubach wrote the foreword for a book titled "The Power in a Link", published by John Wiley & Sons, authored by United States Military Academy graduate, David Gowel.

paragraph: Section::::Personal life.:Other.

paragraph: During the 1970s and early 1980s, he was a spokesperson for the men's clothing retailer Anderson Little, appearing in both print and television advertisements. Later, he did television advertisements for Rolaids as well.

paragraph: During the early 1980s, Staubach worked for a brief time as a color commentator for CBS Sports' NFL telecasts. On November 9, 1980, during a close game between the New York Giants and the Dallas Cowboys, Staubach broadcast a nostalgic comment by exclaiming he would like to be "right down there in the middle of it". The Cowboys lost 38–35.

paragraph: Staubach jointly owned Hall of Fame Racing, a NASCAR Nextel Cup Series team, with fellow former Cowboy and hall-of-famer Troy Aikman, which began racing for the 2006 season.

paragraph: In 2009, Staubach was honored with the "Lombardi Award of Excellence" from the Vince Lombardi Cancer Foundation. The award was created to honor coach Lombardi's legacy, and is awarded annually to an individual who exemplifies the "spirit" of the coach.

paragraph: Section::::Personal life.:Politics.

paragraph: On September 25, 2007, a fundraising email was sent out from the presidential campaign of Senator John McCain (R-AZ) with a letter from Roger Staubach asking recipients to make a contribution before the Federal Election Commission third-quarter reporting date of September 30, 2007.

paragraph: Staubach is a conservative Republican who has often been mentioned as a possible candidate for political office and had once been asked to campaign for U.S. Senator. He received a single vote for Vice Presidential nomination at the 1976 Republican National Convention. In 2013, Staubach's daughter, Jennifer Staubach Gates, won a city council seat, representing Dallas, Texas 13th District.

paragraph: Euthymius of Sardis

paragraph: Euthymius of Sardis (, 751 or 754 – 26 December 831) was metropolitan bishop of Sardis between ca. 785 and ca. 804, and a leading iconophile during the period of Byzantine Iconoclasm. Martyred in 831, he is a saint in the Eastern Orthodox Church, celebrated on 26 December.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Euthymius was born in 751 or 754 in Ouzara, probably in Lycaonia in central Asia Minor. At an early age he entered a monastery, and sometime between 784 and 787, he was ordained as metropolitan bishop of Sardis by Patriarch Tarasios of Constantinople. In this capacity he took part in the Second Council of Nicaea in 787, where he played a leading role in the council's decision to condemn Byzantine Iconoclasm. Euthymius spoke in several of the council's sessions, advocating the reinstatement of the exiled bishops Theodore of Amorium and Basil of Ancyra, the reinstatement of traditional veneration of icons as proposed by Tarasios and Pope Hadrian I, and the anathematizing of Iconoclasm and its supporters. According to his hagiography, sometime between 787 and 790 he participated in an embassy to the Abbasid court at Baghdad, where he distinguished himself by his ability and succeeded in securing a peace settlement with the Caliphate, but such a mission, let alone a peace treaty, is nowhere else attested for this period.

paragraph: Under Emperor Nikephoros I (r. 802–811) he fell into disfavour and was deposed and exiled to the island of Pantelleria off Sicily (ca. 804). According to his hagiography, Nikephoros' animosity was due to Euthymius persuading a woman, whom the future emperor had desired, to become a nun, but the real motive was probably Euthymius' support for the rebellion of the general Bardanes Tourkos in 803. Thanks to the intervention of Patriarch Tarasios, he was recalled from exile soon after, but was not reinstated in his old see. When Iconoclasm was once more adopted as the official doctrine under emperors Leo V the Armenian (r. 813–820) and Michael II the Amorian (r. 820–829), Euthymius again defended the veneration of icons, for which he was arrested, whipped and exiled, then released only to be again arrested and exiled. He was particularly vehemently persecuted by the future patriarch John Grammatikos. The traditional chronology of his death, found both in Byzantine chroniclers (Genesios, John Skylitzes and Theophanes Continuatus) and older historiography and martyrology (cf. the entries in the "Catholic Encyclopedia"), is 26 December 824, when he was whipped to death at the orders of Michael II. Modern research, however, places it on 26 December 831 on the island of St. Andrew to the north of Cape Akritas on the Bithynian coast south of Constantinople, during the reign of Michael II's successor Theophilos (r. 829–842).

paragraph: Euthymius' hagiography was written by Patriarch Methodios I of Constantinople. In addition, several letters by Theodore of Stoudios to Euthymius survive, as well as a panegyric poem in his honour, written by a certain Metrophanes.

paragraph: Tommy Marth

paragraph: Thomas Christian "Tommy" Marth Jr. (November 23, 1978 – April 23, 2012) was an American saxophone player, best known for his recordings and live performances with The Killers. He toured widely with the band in 2008–2009, and also played on the albums "Sam's Town" and "Day & Age".

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Tommy Marth was born in Las Vegas, Nevada, and was the middle of three children to Las Vegas singer Diane Eddington and father Thomas Christian Marth Sr., who met Marth's mother while playing stringed instruments throughout Las Vegas in the early 1960s. Tom Sr. taught Marth how to play the drums when he was 4, according to Marth who said in an interview, "When I saw that he liked the thought of me playing I stopped". It wasn't until Marth heard a cassette tape of Stan Getz when he decided to play the saxophone.

paragraph: Described by his sister as having a familial bond akin to "The Three Musketeers", Marth had a very close relationship with his musician siblings, who include older brother Ryan Marth and younger sister Melissa Marth, both members of the Las Vegas indie band The Big Friendly Corporation.

paragraph: Tommy attended Chaparral High School in Paradise where he met the future bass player for The Killers, Mark Stoermer in jazz band. While still in high school, Tommy worked as a fashion model for Tommy Hilfiger, Jaguar, and appeared in the video for Sting's "Desert Rose". Tommy would also appear in the video for Passion Fruit's "Sun Fun Baby" in 2000. He later attended the University of Nevada, Las Vegas where he received his bachelor's degree in film.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Early in Marth's career, he was the saxophonist for the Las Vegas All Star Jazz Band while also working as a freelance writer for Las Vegas CityLife. In 2006, Tommy joined his high school friend Mark Stoermer in the studio to record tracks for The Killers' second album "Sam's Town". Shortly after the release of the album, Tommy joined The Killers onstage on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno". During this period, when not recording or performing live with The Killers, Tommy worked as both stage manager and entertainment director for a Las Vegas nightclub known as the Freakin' Frog, where he was known for recording live band's performances for free.

paragraph: In 2008, Tommy recorded saxophone on Black Camaro's "Pistachio Moustachio", before returning to the studio with The Killers to record tracks for "Day & Age", the band's third studio release. Marth toured with The Killers the following Summer for the "Day & Age" album and he appears on the "Live from the Royal Albert Hall" DVD.

paragraph: Shortly after arriving home from the "Day & Age Tour", Tommy returned to his love of writing fiction and playing music with his family. The Big Friendly Corporation would soon enter the studio to record tracks for its album "...And So It Goes (2010)", on which Tommy performed saxophone for the song "Heaven's on Your Side". Tommy also performed live with Las Vegas musician and tour manager for The Killers Ryan Pardey, in his band Halloween Town, and appears on the band's album "Zafra Court (2011)".

paragraph: Since November 2011, Marth had been the Hard Rock's nightlife marketing manager in Las Vegas.

paragraph: Section::::Death.

paragraph: On April 23, 2012, Marth's body was discovered in his Las Vegas, Nevada home with a gunshot wound to the head. The Clark County Coroner subsequently ruled that the gunshot wound was self-inflicted and the cause of death was suicide. The Killers tweeted to their fans soon after receiving the news. The message said, "Last night we lost our friend Thomas Marth. Our prayers are with his family. There's a light missing in Las Vegas tonight. Travel well, Tommy".

paragraph: According to the "Las Vegas Sun", on the day of Marth's death, The Big Friendly Corporation featured Tommy's performance of "Heaven's on Your Side" on its website, along with comments from Big Friendly member Timothy Styles who said, "It's just been a sad, sad day ... A stand-up guy, a totally great guy and I miss him very much."

paragraph: In April 2017, on the 5th anniversary of Marth's death, The Big Friendly Corporation released "Carry On, Carrion", a 24-song double vinyl album documenting their grieving process over the loss of Marth, with brutally honest lyrics often describing the horrid details of Marth's death.

paragraph: Section::::Posthumous releases.

paragraph: On July 4, 2012, Black Camaro released their album "Black Camaricans" which features Tommy Marth along with his siblings Melissa and Ryan on the song "Phantom of the Moon". Black Camaro's Brian Garth tells "Las Vegas CityLife", "We [originally] had this as a song that Tommy dominates with saxophone. But now it's not about that. It's about that it could be the last thing he [recorded]. And I have it, and I have the ability to do this. And I have the Marths as friends to come in and do it."

paragraph: Little is known of Federico di Pagana, he came from the region of Rapallo on the Genoese Riviera, so it is unclear why he was chosen as doge after Nicolò Guarco was forced out of office on April 7, 1383. But the well-introduced and astute politician Leonardo Montaldo managed to have the election canceled and to be picked instead as the new doge. After this episode, Federico di Pagana disappears from the forefront of Genoese politics.

paragraph: Sadik Achmet (, ) (born on 1 January 1947 in Komotini, Greece; died 25 July 1995 in Komotini, Greece) was a Greek professor of Turkish descent. He founded the Party of Friendship, Equality and Peace.

paragraph: He was elected to the Greek parliament in June 1989. He was sent to court on 24 January 1990 due to his declarations that the members of the Muslim minority in Thrace are Turks, and because he referred to himself as "Turk" in his election pamphlet. After a two-day trial he was found guilty of slander and misinformation by the Greek court and condemned to 18 months. Leaving the courtroom he stated "I am being taken to prison only because I am a Turk. If being a Turk is a crime, I repeat here that I am a Turk and I will remain so".

paragraph: Sadik Achmet died in a controversial car accident when his car along with his wife and family drove into a tractor. Most Turkish politicians rejected that his death was a staged political assassination and not an accident.

paragraph: Antoine Clamaran

paragraph: Antoine Clamaran (; born 8 November 1964) is a French house music artist and music remixer. Clamaran was born in Villeurbanne. In the early 90's, his local fame interested Maximum FM, the leading parisian dance radio station at that time. Impressed by his mixing gift, Clamaran gained a huge audience and started to be booked for one off parties. But Palace headquarters (Palace in Paris is the NYC equivalent of Studio 54) asked him to run the mythical Gay Tea Dance every Sunday, instead of French icon Laurent Garnier.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: In 1992 Clamaran, eager to get involved into production, teamed up with Laurent Pautrat. Their first Production "I've got music in me" by 400 Hz made him one of the most promising French producers. Released on House Trade Records, this track was licensed by BMG France and sold over 100,000 units.

paragraph: Then record companies started to flood Clamaran with remixing requests such as : "Funky Music" by Calvin Stone, "oxygene" by Jean Michel Jarre, "party time" by Gloria Estefan, "you spin me round" by Dead or Alive and "Encore Une Fois" by Euro smash. His own productions under the names of Carayca, 400 Hz, D-Plac, LAC, Unchain & House Train were always at the top the DJ playlists but it was not until 1998 was he again to enter the French top 50 best-sellers list.

paragraph: As a DJ he switched his residency from Palace to the Temple of Dance in Paris: Le Queen.

paragraph: During 1998 he produced 3 club smashes under the name Omega: "Dreaming Of A Better World", "Peace & Harmony", "The Mission". All these tracks went gold status in France (250,000 units) but didn't make any sales abroad.

paragraph: By 1999, Clamaran had reached a blockbuster status in France but he chose to come back to house music, leaving behind the commercial path laid out for him. He decided to produce tracks under his own name and oriented for the international markets. His first productions under his name; "Do The Funk", "Get Up" and "After", were written with the now famous "french filtered sound".

paragraph: These tracks were licensed by US based label Filtered records and released on the Discoland EP. The record became a "must have" for most of the world's key DJs including Boris Duglosch, Erick Morillo, Pete Tong, Danny Rampling and Robbie Rivera. With "We Come To Party" feat. Blue James (Basement jaxx singer), the filtered disco style of Clamaran, became an asset for the house community.

paragraph: In 1999, a few days before New Year's Eve, Clap production (Clamaran /Pautrat label) merged into Penso Positivo (firm of another famous DJ in France : Claude Monnet).

paragraph: Antoine is now managing 4 labels, as producer and a&r, within Penso Possitivo: Academy, North Club, House Trade Records and Basic traxx.

paragraph: In 2000, he achieved charts success with Vibration INC. Antoine Clamaran is currently the resident in the two biggest parisian clubs: Les Bains Douches and Le Queen.

paragraph: The leading single from his 2009 album "Spotlight", "Gold", reached #5 position in Russia and topped the Moscow Airplay Chart.

paragraph: George O'Hara (actor)

paragraph: George O'Hara (born George Bolger, February 22, 1899 – October 16, 1966) was an American motion picture actor and screenwriter of the silent film era.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Born in New York City and raised in Hollywood, California, George O'Hara began his acting career under contract as a performer for early Hollywood director Mack Sennett. Sennett was immediately charmed by the handsome, cleft-chinned young actor and saw O'Hara as a potentially popular matinee idol. O'Hara's acting career received an early boost when Sennett cast the young actor in the commercially successful 1920 romantic film "Love, Honor, and Behave" opposite the popular silent film actress Marie Prevost.

paragraph: In 1921, O'Hara began working behind the camera with Sennett's tutelage. He was credited as an associate producer in the Ben Turpin film "A Small Town Idol" and later worked as a continuity and title writer throughout the 1920s in the film industry as well as continuing his successful acting career.

paragraph: George O'Hara was most popular with the public when starring in two-reel action and adventure serials of the 1920s, such as "The Pacemakers" and "Casey of the Coast Guard". In his most popular serial, "Fighting Blood", O'Hara was cast as a boxer; A role well-suited to O'Hara, who in his free time was a boxing afficienado and moderately successful in the amateur lightweight division of the sport.

paragraph: Throughout the 1920s, O'Hara continued working as an actor and became a quite popular matinee idol. He costarred with John Barrymore and Dolores Costello in a silent film adaptation of "Moby-Dick" called "The Sea Beast" playing Barrymore's evil half-brother; O'Hara was aptly cast as he bore a resemblance to the legendary actor. With the advent of sound films however, the film studios began to heavily promote a new crop of actors and many of the formerly popular actors of the silent era (including O'Hara) found it increasingly difficult to find work. O'Hara quietly faded into an early retirement in the early 1930s but began trying to rebuild his career later in the decade by taking bit parts, most notably as the role of a clerk in the 1940 John Ford directed film adaptation of John Steinbeck's "The Grapes of Wrath".

paragraph: O'Hara never again achieved the success he had attained in his early career and spent the next several decades playing as an extra in often uncredited roles. O'Hara died of cancer in Los Angeles, California in 1966.

categories: Italian Renaissance humanists,1568 deaths,1508 births

paragraph: Lodovico Dolce

paragraph: Lodovico Dolce (1508/10–1568) was an Italian man of letters and theorist of painting. He was a broadly-based Venetian humanist and prolific author, translator and editor; he is now mostly remembered for his "Dialogue on Painting" or "L'Aretino" (1557), and his involvement in artistic controversies of the day. He became a friend of Titian, and often acted as in effect his public relations man.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: The date of Dolce's birth, long accepted as 1508, has been more likely set in 1510. Dolce's youth was difficult. His father, a former steward to the public attorneys ("castaldo delle procuratorie") for the Republic of Venice, died when the boy was only two. For his early studies, he depended on the support of two patrician families: that of the doge Leonardo Loredano (see Dolce's dedication of his "Dialogue on Painting") and the Cornaro family, who financed his studies at Padua.

paragraph: After he completed his studies, Dolce found work in Venice with the press of Gabriele Giolito de' Ferrari. He was one of the most active intellectuals in 16th-century Venice. Claudia Di Filippo Bareggi claims that over the course of thirty-six years Dolce was responsible for 96 editions of his own original work, 202 editions of other writers, and at least 54 translations. As a popularizer, he worked to make information available to the non-specialist, those too busy to learn Greek and Latin.

paragraph: Following a productive life as a scholar and author, Dolce died in January, 1568, and was buried in the church of San Luca in Venice, although in which pavement tomb is unknown.

paragraph: Section::::Works.

paragraph: Dolce worked in most of the literary genres available at the time, including epic and lyric poetry, chivalric romance, comedy, tragedy, the prose dialogue, treatises (where he discussed women, ill-married men, memory, the Italian language, gems, painting, and colors), encyclopedic summaries (of Aristotle's philosophy and world history), and historical works on major figures of the 16th century and earlier writers, such as Cicero, Ovid, Dante, and Boccaccio. From 1542, when he first went to work for the Giolito, until his death in 1568, he edited 184 texts out of just over 700 titles published by Giolito. These editions included works by Dante, Petrarch, Boccaccio, Castiglione, Pietro Bembo, Lodovico Ariosto, Pietro Aretino, Angelo Poliziano, Jacopo Sannazzaro, and Bernardo Tasso. And he translated into Italian works of authors such as Homer, Euripides, Catullus, Cicero, Horace, Ovid, Juvenal, the playwright Seneca, and Virgil.

paragraph: Section::::Works.:Writings on art.

paragraph: "L'Aretino" (1557), Dolce's main work on art, was designed as a riposte to Vasari's "Lives of the Artists", whose first edition of 1550 did not even include Titian, which Vasari rectified in the second edition of 1568. It takes the form of a dialogue in three parts between Pietro Aretino, representing the Venetian point of view, and the Florentine humanist Giovanni Francesco Fabrini. Beginning with a discussion of the principles of art, the dialogue moves on to a "paragone" or comparison between Raphael and Michelangelo, and to discuss a number of other contemporary painters, and then ends with a biography and appreciation of Titian.

paragraph: A clear hierarchy emerges from the book: of all the artists of his own century, Titian is the greatest, followed by the varied and harmonious Raphael, then the flawed Michelangelo. It is uncertain how well he knew Titian at the time he wrote his life, which was the first published biography of the artist. There appear to be too many simple mistakes for the text to have been checked over by its subject.

paragraph: Dolce is a staunch partisan of the High Renaissance in general, and critical of Mannerism. According to Anthony Blunt, the work was probably written in close collaboration with Aretino, who died a year before publication. Aretino's advances to Michelangelo had been rebuffed, and there is harsh criticism of his "Last Judgment", repeating those already made by others, but usually couching objections in terms of decorum for such an important location as the Sistine Chapel, rather than morality as such—understandably, given Aretino's own notorious record in his life and works.

paragraph: Mark Roskill sees a different picture of the book's prehistory, with Dolce being a member of Aretino's "outer circle" for some years around 1537–42, before a slackening of relations; over this period Dolce became familiar with Aretino's strong but unsystematic thinking on art. After the publication of Vasari's "Lives" in 1550, the Venetian intellectual establishment felt the need for a Venetian counterblast, for which Dolce was probably chosen "by someone higher up in the hierarchy of Venetian humanists", and also supplied with some material.

paragraph: On Aretino's death in 1556, the work also took on another purpose: to serve as a memorial for him. It may have been at this point that the dialogue form was adopted.

paragraph: Dolce's approach in fact relies considerably on Vasari, who he is likely to have known, as Vasari's stay of 13 months in Venice in 1541–42 came when Dolce was closest to Aretino, at whose urging Vasari had made the visit. In turn, the added material on Titian in Vasari's 2nd edition of 1568 shows evidence of using "L'Aretino" (and also evidence of ignoring it), as well as the researches of the Florentine ambassador. The two men may have met in Vasari's brief visit in May 1566.

paragraph: Dolce's book continued to be admired as a treatise on art theory through to the 18th century, but more recently it is his biographical information that has been valued. A dual edition in French and Italian was published in 1735, and there were published translations in Dutch in 1756, German in 1757, and English in 1770.

paragraph: Section::::Works.:Tragedies.

paragraph: As a dramatist he wrote numerous tragedies: "Giocasta" (1549, derived probably from Euripides' "The Phoenician Women" via the Latin translation of R. Winter), "Thieste", "Medea", "Didone", "Ifigenia", "Hecuba" and "Marianna". An English-language adaptation of the first of these, the "Jocasta" by George Gascoigne and Francis Kinwelmersh, was staged in 1566 at Gray's Inn in London. His tragedy "Didone" (1547) was one of his more influential tragedies in Italy, a precursor of Pietro Metastasio's "Didone abbandonata" (1724).

paragraph: Section::::Works.:Comedies.

paragraph: He also wrote numerous comedies, including "Il Marito", "Il Ragazzo", "Il Capitano", "La Fabritia", and "Il Ruffiano".

paragraph: Section::::Works.:Histories.

paragraph: Two of his histories—the "Life of Charles V" (1561) and the "Life of Ferdinand I" (1566) were very successful in the sixteenth century. His "History of the World" ("Giornale delle historie del mondo", 1572, posthumous) is a lengthy calendar of notable historical and literary events, listed for each day of the year. The events he employs range in time from the origins of civilization to his own day.

paragraph: Section::::Works.:Treatises.

paragraph: His "Treatise on Gems" ("Trattato delle gemme", 1565) falls into the lapidary tradition, with Dolce discussing not only the physical qualities of jewels but the power infused in them by the stars. As his authorities, he cites Aristotle, the Persian philosopher Avicenna, Averroes, and the "Libri mineralium" of Albert the Great among others, but, according to Ronnie H. Terpening, he appears to have simply translated Camillo Leonardo's "Speculum lapidum" (1502) without crediting the earlier author. In addition to translating Cicero's "De Oratore" (1547), Dolce authored several treatises on language, among them the "Osservationi nella volgar lingua" (1550). This was a linguistic and grammatical study in which Dolce draws examples from and comments on Dante, Boccaccio, and Ariosto, among others.

paragraph: Section::::Works.:Chivalric Romances.

paragraph: In the genre of chivalric romance, Dolce produced several reworkings of traditional material, including "Sacripante" (1536), "Palmerino" (1561), "Primaleone, figliuolo di Palmerino" (1562), and the posthumous "Prime imprese del conte Orlando" ("The Early Deeds of Count Orlando") (1572).

paragraph: Section::::Works.:Classical Epic.

paragraph: Drawing heavily on Virgil, he wrote an epic poem on Aeneas, the "Enea", published the year of his death. For those who had no knowledge of Greek or Latin, he compiled a work in "ottava rima", "L'Achille et l'Enea", joining Homer's epic to Virgil's, a work published posthumously in 1570.

paragraph: Section::::Works.:Editions of Other Writers.

paragraph: Among the authors edited by Dolce (for which see "Works" above), he focused most significantly on Ariosto. He edited three of Ariosto's comedies, "La Lena" (c. 1530), "Il Negromante" (c. 1530), and "I Suppositi" (1551); the poet's "Rime" (1557), and the "Orlando furioso" (1535). For the latter poem, he published a work explaining the more difficult aspects, the "Espositioni" (1542), and an analysis of the poem's figurative language, the "Modi affigurati" (1554).

paragraph: Section::::Works.:Translations.

paragraph: Whether Dolce knew Greek or not has been questioned by Emmanuel Antonio Cicogna. Nevertheless, using (but not acknowledging) Latin translations of authors such as Euripides, he translated the works of several Greek authors into Italian, among them Achilles Tatius ("Leucippe and Clitophon", 1544), Homer's "Odyssey" ("L'Ulisse", 1573, posthumous) and the "History of the Greek Emperors" (1569, posthumous) by Nicetas Acominatus. He also translated various Latin authors, sometimes very loosely, other times, such as for Seneca's ten tragedies, with fidelity to the original.

paragraph: Ronnie H. Terpening concludes his book on Dolce by noting that

paragraph: Truly, then as now, taking into account all his imperfections and those of the age, this is a worthy career for any man or woman of letters. Without his unstinting efforts, the history and development of Italian literature would surely be the poorer. In addition, if what others have said about him is accurate, Dolce was also a good man, for after “indefatigable” the adjectives used most often to describe him are “pacifico” and, of course, “dolce”. In such a contentious age, these are simple but high words of praise indeed. (p. 169)

paragraph: Glynn Isaac

paragraph: Glynn Llywelyn Isaac (19 November 1937 – 5 October 1985) was a South African archaeologist who specialised in the very early prehistory of Africa, and was one of twin sons born to botanists William Edwyn Isaac and Frances Margaret Leighton. He has been called the most influential Africanist of the last half century, and his papers on human movement and behavior are still cited in studies a quarter of a century later.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: He took his first degree from the University of Cape Town in 1958 before studying for his PhD at Peterhouse, Cambridge which he completed in 1969. He was also Warden for Prehistoric Sites in Kenya between 1961 and 1962 and Deputy Director of the Centre for Prehistory and Palaeontology at the National Museums of Kenya from 1963 to 1965. Working with Richard Leakey, he was co-director of the East African Koobi Fora project.

paragraph: In 1966 he joined the anthropology department at the University of California, Berkeley and in 1983 he was appointed Professor of Anthropology at Harvard University where he was developing new research projects at the time of his death. He was survived by his twin brother, Rhys Isaac, an historian, based at La Trobe University.

paragraph: He died in 1985 in Yokosuka, Japan due to illness, at the age of 47.

paragraph: Section::::Contributions.

paragraph: Glynn Isaac is best remembered for a series of papers and ideas which attempted to combine the available archeological record with models of both human behavior and a human activity from the standpoint of evolution. In the early 1970s Isaac published on the effect of social networks, gathering, meat eating and other factors on human evolution, and proposed a series of models to examine how groups of humans in the paleolithic would have engaged in acquiring the necessities of life, and interacting with each other. Isaac's models focused on a "home base" and the importance of sexual division of labor on hominid social organization.
