paragraph: Alex Rance

paragraph: Alex James Rance (born 9 October 1989) is a professional Australian rules footballer playing for the Richmond Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL). Rance is a premiership player, five time All-Australian, a one time All-Australian captain and a winner of Richmond's best-and-fairest award. He is currently the club's co-vice captain, alongside Jack Riewoldt. Rance is the son of former Footscray and West Coast player Murray Rance.

paragraph: Section::::Early life and junior football.

paragraph: Rance is of strong footballing heritage, being the son of Murray Rance, a former Footscray and player and Swan Districts captain in the WAFL. Born in Perth in the latter years of his father's VFL career, Rance played junior football at the Noranda Junior Football Club in Perth's eastern suburbs. He later played for Noranda in the Western Australian Amateur Football League before again moving to the Swan Districts side in the WAFL.

paragraph: In 2007 Rance represented Western Australia at the Under 18 National Championships. There he won a premiership medal with the team as well as being selected as an All-Australian.

paragraph: He completed high school studies at Guildford Grammar School in Perth, Western Australia.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.:2008 season.

paragraph: Rance was drafted by with the club's second selection and the 18th overall in the 2007 AFL national draft.

paragraph: He began his first season at the club by playing two levels below AFL, with the reserves side of Richmond's VFL affiliate, the Coburg Football Club. He played his first match at VFL level in mid April, before spending another month in development. When he returned in mid-May he became a regular selection, gathering 35 disposals and five tackles in a mid-June match. Though he spent some time in the lower level, he began to impress enough at VFL level that he was named an emergency for AFL games late in the season. He did not make his AFL debut that year, but did hold a spot in the VFL team through their finals series.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.:2009 season.

paragraph: Rance made his AFL debut in round 2 of the 2009 season in a loss to at Kardinia Park. He recorded 18 disposals and six marks in the match. Rance remained in the senior side until round 7, where he was involved in a head clash with Brisbane Lions player Troy Selwood. He suffered three small cheekbone fractures and missed three matches as a result of the incident. He kicked his first career goal in a round 19 loss to . He returned in round 11 and played three straight matches but missed the round 14 encounter with Adelaide. He returned to AFL level in round 15, playing two more matches before another two week stint away from the level. But he would play out the last four rounds at AFL level, kicking his first career goal in round 19 and finishing the year having played 15 senior matches.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.:2010 season.

paragraph: Rance played his first AFL match of 2010 in round 3 against at the SCG. That season he played in a number of different roles including as a key position player (in both forward and defence) a rebounding half-back, and was even named on-ball for Richmond's round 5 match against . Rance drifted forward in that match however, kicking a career high three goals in an impressive display. After seven straight matches he would return to reserves football, before being recalled for one match in round 17. Despite notching a then career best 23 disposals and 11 marks, it was his only match in that spell, playing AFL matches on only two more occasions that season. He did not play in a victory that season, with the club losing all 10 matches he appeared in. To that point Rance had showed plenty of athletic talent, but far more brain fades and failed plays. As a result of this form and an inability to gain regular selection at the highest level, Race made contact with a number of clubs about a possible move, including , , and . Despite some interest, he chose to remain at Richmond, later admitting he grew in confidence as a result of the desire competing clubs had to attain his services.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.:2011 season.

paragraph: Rance's fourth year at Richmond would prove to be his breakout one. For the first time in his career he played round 1 in the club's senior side. He would be suspended in that match however, following a hit on 's Jarrad Waite. Rance was suspended for three matches for the incident. He returned in round 4 and did not miss a match from that point forward. Rance earned the praises of former Richmond fullback Darren Gaspar for his work in round 13, consistently beating forward Jonathan Brown in one-on-one contests. At season's end he had lifted his disposals average from 12.5 the previous year to 19.1 per game in 2011. Rance finished second at the club for total marks that season (113) and equal second for rebound-50s (78). He also cited 2011 as key for his growth as a key position defender, praising the efforts of then Richmond-defensive coach Justin Leppitsch in teaching him the technical aspects of the role. He was duley rewarded with the club's Most Improved Player award that season.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.:2012 season.

paragraph: Rance approached the 2012 season with building expectations, citing a desire to play finals for the first time. Though the club did not reach the goal in 2012, Rance's output improved considerably. In addition to his growing acumen in the rigidly defense focused parts of his game, he began improving on his rebound from defensive 50. In round 2, he recorded a career best 34 disposals as well as a career best 17 marks. In a round 6 win against , Rance recorded his first career Brownlow Medal votes, scoring the maximum three points for the match. He finished the season with then career-best totals in kicks, marks and handballs.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.:2013 season.

paragraph: Rance started the 2013 season poorly, giving up a career-best four goals to forward Liam Jones in the clubs' round 3 match-up. Despite this, he remained the team's foremost defender even with the recent acquisition of former Port Adelaide tall defender Troy Chaplin, whom Rance praised heavily prior to and during the season. During the season Rance would be tasked with defensive roles on some of the league's best forwards including Travis Cloke, Josh Kennedy and Lance Franklin. In particular, his performance in negating Franklin in the club's round 19 match against was crucial to the team's victory. He held Franklin to only one goal in the match.

paragraph: In 2013 Rance played in the club's first final in 12 years, an elimination final loss to traditional rivals at the MCG.

paragraph: At the end of the season Rance was ranked ninth in the league for marks. He ranked first at the club for marks, rebound 50s and one-percenters as well as top ten in both kicks and handballs.

paragraph: Rance received the player-voted Francis Bourke award for the second time in three seasons for his embodiment of the club's principles of awareness, belief and discipline.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.:2014 season.

paragraph: After playing in Richmond's round 1 match against , Rance would subsequently miss 5 matches due to a bizarre foot-fracture. He sustained the break while riding his bicycle prior to the club's round 2 match.

paragraph: He recorded a season-high 29 disposals in the club's round 13 match with . Through round 15 Rance was placed first in the league for win-loss differential in one-on-one contests. In Richmond's must-win round 23 clash with , Rance recorded 16 disposals with a spectacular 12 coming off intercept possessions. Teammate Jack Riewoldt said at the time it was “probably the best quarter of footy (he'd) ever seen someone play”.

paragraph: Rance won his first All-Australian selection that year, named in the position of centre half back.

paragraph: He also won his third consecutive player-voted Francis Bourke award at Richmond's best and fairest night.

paragraph: In later years, Rance would reveal he had privately decided to give up football after enduring a grueling 2014 season. He had intended at the time to complete the last year of his contract in 2015 before retiring from the game.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.:2015 season.

paragraph: In the early parts of the 2015 season, Rance's unwillingness to sign a contract extension with Richmond led to media speculation concerning his future. It was reported at the time that he was considering significant contract offers from other AFL clubs, specifically Fremantle and the Brisbane Lions.

paragraph: Later reports emerged suggesting Rance was also considering retiring.

paragraph: On-field his game followed the trajectory established in previous years, with Rance maintaining his status as one of the competition's best defenders. Through 17 matches Rance had conceded only 19 goals, and with a disposal average of 17 per game, was a solid rebounding presence as well.

paragraph: In June Rance ended contract speculation by signing a four-year contract extension at Richmond, keeping him tied to the club through the end of the 2019 season.

paragraph: Rance finished the season playing in all 23 of the club's matches including in an elimination final defeat at the hands of .

paragraph: His season was rewarded with the Jack Dyer Medal as the club's best and fairest player.

paragraph: He also won a second consecutive selection as an All-Australian, this time in the position of fullback.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.:2016 season.

paragraph: Prior to the 2016 season, Rance was voted by his peers into Richmond's five man leadership group. As the only defender in the group, he replaced teammate Troy Chaplin as the official leadership voice of the club's backline.

paragraph: Rance was reported in April for striking 's Jack Watts in an incident in the clubs' ANZAC Day-eve clash. He subsequently accepted a two match ban for the incident and offered a public apology for his actions.

paragraph: Rance played all other matches that season and finished with a then career-best 155 marks for the season from his 20 matches. It was also a career best year for average disposals, as he continued to improve his rebounding from defensive 50. Having notched up his 150th game for the club, Rance was awarded life membership at Richmond. Rance was selected as an All-Australian for the third consecutive season, equaling a club record for most career selections.

paragraph: He narrowly missed out on his second straight best-and-fairest, pipped by teammate Dustin Martin 61 votes to 62.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.:2017 season.

paragraph: Ahead of the 2017 season Rance was ranked the competition's best key position defender as part of the AFL statistics partner Champion Data's annual ranking. Though he went through a full pre-season program, a minor hamstring injury left Rance sidelined in Richmond's first match of the 2017 JLT Community Series. Back in full health, Rance was named as the club's co-vice captain prior to round 1. He led the Richmond backline in its contributions to a five win streak to open the season, seeing the Tigers ranked the best defence in the league. Personally he was averaging the most intercept possessions and any key defender in the league (8.4) as well as the third most intercept marks (2.8). At the mid point of the season Rance led the competition in intercept possessions (9.0 per game) and improved his metres-gained from 213.2 per game in 2016, to 300.9 mid-way through 2017. At that same time he was named at fullback in AFL Media's mid-season All Australian team. Rance received media and public criticism for excessive exaggeration following an incident in round 13 we he received a free kick during a push and shove with Sydney forward Lance Franklin. The AFL's match review panel were later of the opinion that "any exaggeration of the contact that was made to Rance was not excessive" and decided not to penalise him for the fall. To that point Rance ranked third in the competition for intercept marks (38) and first for spoils (115). In round 21 Rance was comprehensively bested by defender-turned-forward Harry Taylor who kicked four goals in his side's defeat of Richmond at Kardinia Park. He kicked his first goal in four years the next week though, pushing forward for a brief spell during Richmond's 104 point domination of . At the end of the home and away season he was named in the All-Australian team for the fourth consecutive time. He was also named the team's captain, the first non-club captain to receive the honour since Andrew McLeod in 2007. When he faced a rematch with Geelong and Taylor in a qualifying final, Rance had his revenge, restricting the Cat to eight disposals and a single goal in Richmond's win. He added 16 disposals and seven marks in a winning preliminary final too, before his side progressed to a grand final matchup against minor premiers . There he became a premiership player, leading the Richmond defense during a first half onslaught in the 48 point victory. He received two votes in the Norm Smith Medal for the best player on the ground, placing third. In the days that followed he would receive the Jack Titus Medal as second place in the club's best and fairest count (behind Brownlow Medalist Martin) and be named at fullback in "AFL Media's" Team of the Finals. His 97 rebound-50s set the seventh best mark in club history, while his 242 one-percenters eclipsed his previous best to set a new club record.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.:2018 season.

paragraph: Upon entering the 2018 season Rance was named by an AFL Players Association poll as the best defender in the game and the sixth best player in the league overall, up four places from the year before. He played his first matches of the year in Richmond's two pre-season wins over and . In round 1's win over he was described as "impassable" by the "Herald Sun's" Sam Edmund. The following week Rance was bested by Josh Jenkins, conceding four first half goals to the forward. In round 3 he was named one of Richmond's best, earning four votes in the Coaches Association award. Rance also attracted the attention of the AFL's Match Review Officer that week, being fined $2,000 for an errant late spoil on 's Luke Breust. After four matches Rance led the league in intercept posesions (10.5 per game) and ranked third for intercept marks (3.8). In round 7 Rance's Richmond defense held Fremantle to a club record equal second-lowest first-half score of nine points. In round 11 Rance attracted significant media and public criticism for a 'diving' incident during the Dreamtime at the 'G match in which he exaggerated contact in a marking contest with forward Shaun McKernan and drew a free kick as a result. He accepted a $1,000 fine after the incident was classified by the AFL's match review officer as staging. At the half-way point of the season Rance was named in "Fox Footy's" mid-year All Australian squad while also being named in the "Herald Sun" and "AFL Media" teams of 22 players. To the end of round 13 Rance was ranked number one in the league for intercepts as well as fourth for one percenters and ninth for total marks recorded that season. He continued to hold the league's number one rank for intercepts through round 16 and also improved to second for intercept marks and fifth for spoils. It was at this time he signed a new two-year contract extension that saw him tied to the club until the end of the 2021 season. Rance picked up two votes in the Coaches Association award in round 20, this time as Richmond's equal third best player in a win over . Two weeks later Rance served as Richmond captain for the first time. He lead the side to a win over Essendon in the absence of Trent Cotchin due to hamstring soreness. At season's end he was named All-Australian for a fifth consecutive season. In doing so he became the third among then-active players to receive the honour in five consecutive seasons after Gary Ablett Jr. did it between 2007 and 2014 and Scott Pendlebury, who did it from 2010-2014. He was also named in the back pocket of the AFL's Player Ratings team of the year. Rance also led Richmond players with 72 intercept marks during the home and away season, leading the club to a league record-breaking total of 417. In the first week of the finals Rance recorded 13 disposals in Richmond's qualifying final victory over . Rance equaled a season-best with 20 disposals in the club's preliminary final match-up, a shock knock-out loss to that brought his season to an end. Following the conclusion of the 2018 finals series, Rance was named by the "Herald Sun's" chief football writer Mark Robinson as the league's fourth best defender and 15th best player overall during the 2018 season. He also placed sixth in the club's best and fairest count, one vote shy of fellow defender Dylan Grimes.

paragraph: Section::::AFL career.:2019 season.

paragraph: Rance opened his 2019 season by participating in an AFLX exhibition tournament in February. He was drafted to play for the 'Flyers' team by captain Nat Fyfe with the seventh overall pick in a televised draft. Rance followed that with appearances in each of Richmond's two pre-season matches in late February and early March before playing his 200th AFL match in the season opening match against Carlton at the MCG in late March.. Late in the third quarter of that match, Rance landed awkwardly during a marking contest and severely injured his right knee in what coach Damien Hardwick labelled a "suspected ACL (tear)". Scans completed the following day confirmed that Rance had ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament. He had surgery to reconstruct the knee in the week that followed and is expected to miss the remainder of the 2019 season.

paragraph: Section::::Playing style.

paragraph: Rance plays as key-position defender and is considered one of the best defenders in the history of the sport. He has been regularly referred to by media and football experts as the best defender in the game since his first All-Australian season in 2014. By mid-2017 some media personalities began talking about Rance as one the best defenders of all time, with great Dustin Fletcher saying "If he’s not there yet he is heading in the right direction." In April 2018 Richmond coach Damien Hardwick inadvertently waded into the discussion, labeling Rance "the fullback of the century" in a post-game press-conference remark. premiership coach Mark Williams praised in particular Rance's ability to zone off his direct opponent, saying: "Rance’s ability to get up the ground and off his man, his drop-off marking is as good as I have ever seen."

paragraph: In his early seasons he played matches in various roles including as a wing, general defender and even as a forward.

paragraph: Ludwig I, Count of Württemberg-Urach

paragraph: Francis Jourdain

paragraph: Francis Jourdain (2 November 1876 – 31 December 1958) was a painter, furniture maker, interior designer, maker of ceramics, and other decorative arts, and a left-wing political activist.

paragraph: Section::::Early years.

paragraph: Francis Jourdain was born on 2 November 1876, son of the architect Frantz Jourdain.

paragraph: His father was the founder of the "Salon d'Automne" collection.

paragraph: He benefited from the relationship of his parents with the era's famous intellectuals (Émile Zola, Alphonse Daudet) and artists (the circle of Alexandre Charpentier).

paragraph: Jourdain said of the society in which he grew up that it was dominated by people who were highly opionated and quick to take sides. Although its members pretended to be in favor of liberty and compassion, he saw it as tainted by prejudices, xenophobia and extreme emotion. His father was very much typical of this society.

paragraph: Jourdain became a painter, and was a pioneer of the Art Nouveau style, in which he was distinguished as a decorator of the Villa Majorelle in Nancy.

paragraph: A stenciled panel by Jourdain with elegant, cleanly silhouetted images was shown at the 1900 Exposition Universelle in Paris.

paragraph: Section::::Designer.

paragraph: In 1911 Jourdain began to design furniture, following the teachings of Adolf Loos (1847–1933). He opened "Les Ateliers Modernes" in 1912, a small furniture factory.

paragraph: He designed modular wooden furniture for working-class people, advertising in the socialist paper "L'Humanité".

paragraph: With his built-in furniture and storage systems he was able to make small areas appear spacious.

paragraph: He owned a furniture shop by 1919, "Chez Francis Jourdain".

paragraph: Jourdain was a regular exhibitor from 1913–28 at the "Salon d'Automne" and the "Societé des Artistes Décorateurs".

paragraph: Jourdain published many articles on modern art and aesthetics in which he attacked the ostentatious luxury that was typical of contemporary French design.

paragraph: His own designs were simple, with straightforward construction.

paragraph: He collaborated with Le Corbusier in 1920 in publishing a journal titled "L'esprit nouveau", subsidized by the government. It advocated standardization and industrial production as an alternative to individual design, required to rebuild the shattered French society and economy of the years following World War I (1914–18).

paragraph: At the 1925 "Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes" (International Exposition of Modern Industrial and Decorative Arts) Jourdain's "Physical Culture Room", unlike other exhibits, did not emphasize luxury living. His design used smooth wood paneling on the walls and ceilings that resembled riveted sheets of metal.

paragraph: He worked with Robert Mallet-Stevens (1886–1945) between 1925 and 1930.

paragraph: An interior he designed for an Intellectual Worker was exhibited in 1937 at the Exposition Internationale des Arts et Techniques dans la Vie Moderne in Paris.

paragraph: Section::::Political activity.

paragraph: Starting in the 1930s Jourdain became involved in politics and eventually joined the French Communist Party.

paragraph: In 1939 he was Secretary General of the World Committee Against War and Fascism.

paragraph: The committee's letterhead showed Henri Barbusse as Founder and Romain Rolland as Honorary President. The council included Paul Langevin, Jean Longuet and André Malraux of France, Sir Norman Angell of England, Heinrich Mann of Germany, Harry F. Ward, Sherwood Anderson and John dos Passos of the United States and A. A. MacLeod of Canada.

paragraph: Francis Jourdain invited Professor J. B. S. Haldane to attend a great International Conference in Defence of Peace and Humanity that was to be held in Paris on 13–14 May 1939. Haldane expressed his support but declined the invitation.

paragraph: Jourdain was a prolific writer on art in the period after World War II (1939–45).

paragraph: At the end of his life, Jourdain acted as president of the Secours populaire français.

paragraph: He died in Paris on 31 December 1958 at the age of 82.

paragraph: Fiorenzo Angelini

paragraph: Fiorenzo Angelini (1 August 1916 – 22 November 2014) was an Italian Cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church. He is the former President of the Pontifical Council for the Pastoral Care of Health Care Workers in the Roman Curia, and was elevated to the cardinalate in 1991. When Cardinal Ersilio Tonini died on 28 July 2013, Cardinal Angelini became the oldest living cardinal until the next consistory where Pope Francis appointed 98-year-old Archbishop Loris Francesco Capovilla as a cardinal.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Born in Rome, Angelini studied at the Pontifical Roman Seminary, Pontifical Lateran University, and Pontifical Theological Faculty Marianum before being ordained to the priesthood on 3 February 1940. He did pastoral work in Rome until 1956, and served as a chaplain in Azione Cattolica from 1945 to 1959. Angelini served as Master of Pontifical Ceremonies from 1947 to 1954, and for a few months he was a delegate for Roman hospitals.

paragraph: On 27 June 1956, he was appointed Titular Bishop of Messene by Pope Pius XII. Angelini received his episcopal consecration on 29 July from Cardinal Giuseppe Pizzardo, with Archbishop Luigi Traglia and Bishop Ismaele Castellano serving as co-consecrators. He founded, in 1959, the Italian Catholic Doctors' Association, and attended the Second Vatican Council (1962–1965). On 6 January 1977, Pope Paul VI named him an Auxiliary Bishop of Rome. Pope John Paul II raised him to the rank of Archbishop and appointed him as the first president of the newly created Pontifical Council for the Pastoral Care of Health Care Workers on 16 February 1985. He was created Cardinal-Deacon of "Santo Spirito in Sassia" by John Paul II in the consistory of 28 June 1991.

paragraph: Due to his responsibility for the health of the Vatican (head of the Pontifical Council for the Pastoral Care of Health Care Workers, 1985–1996), which made him the leader of 3,000 institutions in Italy alone, Angelini (nicknamed "Sua Sanità") was involved in the Tangentopoli bribery scandal of the early 1990s. Accusations against him included the forced acceptance of his own people for public commissions, as well as extortion from a pharmaceutical company. Angelini was not prosecuted, due to the Vatican's extraterritorial privileges granted by the Lateran Pacts. Angelini was near to Giulio Andreotti, a Christian Democracy (DC) politician who was several times Prime Minister of Italy, and whose entourage fell from power in the same period by similar scandals (Andreotti himself was put on trial for associations with the mafia). Angelini celebrated the marriage of the daughter of Paolo Cirino Pomicino, another DC politician involved in the bribery scandals; the marriage was attended, amongst others, by Andreotti, Gianni De Michelis (also put on trial in the Tangentopoli scandal) and minister Francesco De Lorenzo, who was condemned to 5 years imprisonment for bribery in the management of Italy's Public Health sector.

paragraph: Angelini lost his right to vote in papal conclaves when he turned 80 on 1 August 1996.

paragraph: He retired as President of Pastoral Care of Health Care Workers on 31 December 1996, and on 26 February 2002, he exercised the right of becoming a Cardinal Priest after ten years as a Cardinal Deacon. Angelini has called for the opening of a cause for the beatification of French geneticist Jérôme Lejeune.

paragraph: In 1997 Angelini formed the International Institute for Research on the Face of Christ in Rome in association with the Sisters of the Reparation of the Holy Face.

paragraph: On 28 July 2013, day of the death of cardinal Ersilio Tonini, he became the oldest cardinal in the world. However, Loris Francesco Capovilla, who was elevated to cardinal on 22 February 2014, was older.

paragraph: Section::::Angelini and Pope Pius XII.

paragraph: Angelini was a lifelong admirer of the late Pope Pius XII. In 1959, Angelini published the medical theological pronouncement of the late Pope, the only systematic compilation of the medical speeches and positions of Pope Pius XII, in "Pio XII Discorsi Ai Medici" and went on to champion his cause for canonization. Angelini was appointed bishop by Pius XII in 1956, but did not get the galero (red hat) until 1991. In a 1992 sermon in Saint Peter Basilica on the anniversary of the death of the pontiff, Angelini stated that his career had suffered because of his positive views of Pope Pius XII.
