<mask>: Pete, let me ask you now. It seems as though there is an opening, the American public is very forgiving. Are you willing to show contrition, admit that you bet on baseball and make some sort of apology to that effect? Pete Rose: Not at all, <mask>. I'm not going to admit to something that didn't happen. I know you're getting tired of hearing me say that.But I appreciate the ovation. I appreciate the American fans

 voting me on the All-Century Team. I'm just a small part of a big deal tonight. <mask>: With the overwhelming evidence in that report, why not make that step...

Rose: No. This is too much of a festive night to worry about that because I don't know what evidence you're talking about. I mean, show it to me...

<mask>: Well, the Dowd Report says- but we don't want to debate that, Pete. Rose: Well, why not?Why do we want to believe everything he says? <mask>: You signed a paper acknowledging the ban. Why did you sign it if you didn't agree with it? Rose: It also says I can apply for reinstatement after one year, if you remember correctly. In the press conference, as a matter of fact, my statement was "I can't wait for my little girl to be a year old so I can apply for reinstatement". At my press conference. So you forgot to add that clause that was in there.<mask>: Well, you have reapplied. ... You've applied for reinstatement in 1997. Have you heard back from Commissioner Selig? Rose: No, and that kind of surprises me. It's only been two years, though, and he's got a lot of things on his mind. But I hope to some day. <mask>: Pete, it's been 10 years since you've been allowed on the field.Obviously, the approach that you have taken has not worked. Why not, at this point, take a different approach? Rose: Well, when you say it hadn't worked, what do you exactly mean? <mask>: You're not allowed in baseball. You're not allowed to earn a living in the game you love. And you're not allowed to be in the Hall of Fame. Rose: Well, I took that approach and that was to apply for reinstatement.I hope Bud Selig considers that and gives me an opportunity. I won't need

 a third chance. All I need is a second chance. <mask>: Pete, those who will hear this tonight will say you have been your own worst enemy and continue to be. How do you respond to that? Rose: In what way are you talking about? <mask>: By not acknowledging what seems to be overwhelming evidence.Rose: Yeah, I'm surprised you're bombarding me like this. I mean I'm doing an interview with you on a great night, a great occasion, a great ovation. Everybody seems to be in a good mood. And you're bringing up something that happened 10 years ago. <mask>: I'm bringing it up because I think people would like to see ... Pete, we've got to go, we've got a game.Rose: This is a prosecutor's brief, not an interview, and I'm very surprised at you. I am, really.<mask>: Some would be surprised that you didn't take the opportunity.</blockquote>

After conducting the interview, <mask> offered no apology for his line of questioning toward Rose:

I stand by it, and I think it was absolutely a proper line of questioning. . .I don't have an agenda against Pete Rose . . . Pete was the one who started asking me questions. I definitely wouldn't have gone (that) direction if he had backed off. My intent was to give Pete an opportunity to address issues that have kept him out of baseball. I thought he might have had a change of heart. . . . He hadn't had an opening in 10 years. . . . If I had let that go, all of you (reporters) would have had me on here today for a totally different reason.However, after the fallout of heavy criticism toward him & NBC that ensued from the interview, <mask> offered the following apology on-air prior to the start of Game 3:

If in doing so the interview went on too long and took some of the joy of the occasion, then I want to say to baseball fans everywhere that I am very sorry about this. Despite <mask>'s pre-game apology, New York Yankees outfielder Chad Curtis snubbed <mask>'s request for an on-field interview with him right after hitting the game-winning walk-off home run:

<mask>: Tell us about that pitch.Chad Curtis: I can't do it. As a team, we kind of decided, because of what happened with Pete, we're not going to talk out here on the field.Curtis claimed it was a team decision not to speak with <mask>, but Yankee manager Joe Torre later suggested that Curtis had acted independently. On January 8, 2004, more than four years after the interview, Rose's autobiography My Prison Without Bars'' was published. In that book, he finally admitted publicly to betting on baseball games.

Others are more romantic, but all share some recurring themes: the family, desire, and cultural conflicts between France and America. She stands out from her contemporaries with a direct, incisive, visual form of writing, marked by the influence of Anglo-Saxon novelists. <mask>'s work has been translated into 22 languages (Belarussian, Bulgarian, Czech, English, German, Greek, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin, Norwegian, Persian, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbo-Croatian, Slovenian, Spanish, Taiwanese, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese). Early life and education
Cusset is the daughter of a Breton Catholic father and a Parisian Jewish mother. She is the sister of historian and philosopher <mask>, playwright and philosopher <mask>, and medical doctor <mask>.She spent her youth in Paris, where she attended Lycée La Fontaine, then Lycée Louis-le-Grand. A former student of the École normale supérieure, she completed her Agrégation to become a professor of classics. <mask> holds two PhD's: one from Paris Diderot University (Paris VII), where she wrote a dissertation on Marquis de Sade (La raison et la fiction dans L'Histoire de Juliette), and one from Yale University, where she wrote a dissertation on the 18th-century libertine novel (No Tomorrow: The Ethics of

 Pleasure in the French Enlightenment). She taught 18th-century French literature at Yale University from 1991 to 2002, before turning to writing novels full-time. Based in the United States for the past 30 years (with interludes in Prague, 1997–1999, and London, 2011–2013), she now lives in Manhattan with her American husband and daughter and spends her summers in Brittany, France. Literary career
<mask> entered the French literary scene with La Blouse Roumaine, published in 1990 by Philippe Sollers in his collection L'Infini at Éditions Gallimard. The novel explores the adulterous affair of a French woman married to an American.She thinks she can control her adventure but finds herself caught up in her own game, abandoned at the same time by both her lover and her husband. Her second novel, En toute innocence, published in 1995, was a finalist for the Prix Femina and a great critical success. It recounts, in the first person, the anxieties of a young girl who wants to lose her virginity and who, three times, encounters death in her path. The short book is written in a single breath, with a jerky rhythm. À vous, published in 1996, is a novel inspired by the character of Philippe Sollers and his philosophy of pleasure. The narrator, Marie (a recurring name in <mask>'s novels), addresses herself from the United States to her Parisian spiritual mentor whose silence obsesses her, whose contempt she imagines, while seeking the means to finish off with him. Jouir, published in 1997, was <mask>'s first autofiction novel.Through a mosaic of scenes related to sexuality, Jouir sketches the portrait, in raw and incisive language, of a woman caught between the strength of her desire and her fear of betraying. The book was badly received by

texts: critics when it came out, who either ignored it or attacked it violently. With Le problème avec Jane, published in 1999, <mask> wrote a more traditional whodunit. Jane is a young professor at a prestigious and fictitious American university that one can recognize as Yale University. One day, Jane finds at her door a manuscript entitled The Problem with Jane. As she starts to read it, she discovers that the anonymous author of the manuscript is intimately and disturbingly familiar with her professional setbacks and her marital problems. It is the story of her own life.But who is the author? An old boyfriend? A rejected lover? The husband she divorced? A jealous colleague, or one secretly in love? A friend? Praised by readers, a finalist of the Prix Medicis and the recipient of the Grand Prix des lectrices de Elle in 2000, Le problème avec Jane sold more than 200,000 copies in French.Le problème avec Jane was translated into English and published by Simon & Schuster as The Problem with Jane. La Haine de la famille, published in 2001, was acclaimed by critics and by Bernard Pivot, who presented it at the Bouillon de culture TV show on January 19, 2001, as a success story. Exploring mother-daughter relationships over the course of three generations, <mask>'s tragicomic family saga spares the reader no detail -  the wedding night of the parents, the mother's issues related to digestion, or the grandmother's agony at the hospital. The novel questions the gaze of the narrator, Marie, who is the judge of her mother. Confessions d'une radine, published in 2003, continued <mask>'s work of autofiction and self-criticism with a sequence of funny and spicy stories that probe self-hatred related to money - a topic that may be even more taboo than

texts: sex. The novel probes the instinct that drives one to save money and to be wary of the other, and which prevents one from enjoying life, rather than "spend without counting." Amours transversales, published in 2004, returns to the romantic vein of Le problème avec Jane.A narrative built upon four short stories with recurring characters, Amours transversales is about those loves that are not the ones upon which one has based one's life, but which are no less important: temporary, incidental loves that draw across our lives a transversal line. Following a silence of four years, Un brillant avenir was published in 2008 and became one of <mask>'s greatest successes to date. Selected for the second round of the Prix Medicis and the penultimate round of the Prix Goncourt, the novel won the Prix Goncourt des Lycéens, which propelled it to the best-seller lists for six months. A mix of autobiographical inspiration and novelistic writing, Un brillant avenir traces the life of a woman born in 1936 in Romania from where she eventually fled with her Jewish husband to emigrate to the United States. Hoping to offer her son a "bright future," she saw instead this future being compromised by the arrival into his life of another woman, a French daughter-in-law. New York, Journal d’un cycle, published in 2009, is a story with photos that appeared in the collection "Traits et portraits" directed by Colette Fellous at Mercure de France. This story dates back to a dozen years earlier and, by its writing, is closer to Jouir and Confessions of a radine.It describes a couple's quarrels around the desire for a child, set in a New York landscape made up of violence, intensity of movement, and unexpected apparitions. The cycle is both the narrator's menstrual

Une éducation catholique, published in 2014, tells the childhood story of the narrator, Marie, brought up by a practicing Catholic father and an atheist mother of Jewish origin. Starting with the narrator's religious education, the narrative broadens into a reflection on faith, emerging sexuality, and the need to create gods. L’autre qu’on adorait, published in 2016, was one of four finalists for the Prix Goncourt. It received four prizes: Le Choix Goncourt de la Belgique, Le Choix Goncourt de la Roumanie, Le Choix Goncourt de la Slovenie, and Le Choix Goncourt de la Suisse. Vie de David Hockney: roman, published in 2018, imagines the life of English painter David Hockney.<mask> wrote the novel before actually meeting Hockney and drew inspiration from published biographies and interviews of the artist.

Biography

<mask> is the younger sibling of one of the most respected brother combinations of BMX racing: Eddy & <mask>. Of the two <mask> Brothers, <mask> had a more dominating career in terms of national titles he won as an amateur and professional. As with most brother combinations the younger brother often live in the shadow of the elder and <mask> was a well-respected rider with a long career. <mask> came out of his brother's shadow when he won his first national title when he became the American Bicycle Association's national number one amateur for 1984 and again in 1987. <mask> turned to the pro class in 1988 and earned the Rookie of Year honor and the National number one pro title. Still without a nickname at the time, although he was also known as "<mask>" by many, he became known as "The Snake" by his competitors for his relentless ability to pass riders during a race.In 1993, <mask> took to mountain bike racing and instantly found success in his rookie year by winning the National Off-Road Bicycle Association’s Dual Slalom National Championships and the coveted Union Cycliste Internationale Downhill Mountain Bike World Championship title in Métabief, France. After multiple international and domestic victories, world cup wins, and national championships, <mask>

*The Tijuana BMX Cup was a one time event held in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, and sponsored by the International Cycling Organization, Coca-Cola, Carta Blanca, and the State Secretary of Tourism of Baja California. The BMX Association of San Diego after the major BMX governing bodies, the NBL and ABA, declined to sanction the event, ran it. As a result, while heavily promoted it had sparse participation with only 200 racers comprising about 22 motos (including 13 professionals from the United States) out of the hoped for 6000 tourist. A promoter of the race Phil Bartel had anticipated making enough money to build three or four tracks in Tijuana. He instead lost US$5,000.The reason for the low turn out are attributed to the lack of ABA and NBL points for racers touring those circuits, negating an important motivation to attend. A further disincentive was the high entrance fees of $20 and the mere fact that it was in Mexico, a nation with foreign (to Americans) standards of culture and law, even though it was held only a half mile from the border inside Mexico. In May 1984 the BMXA of San Diego merged with the ABA. National Bicycle League

Named number three on the list of the "Dirtiest Riders in BMX" in the history of BMX in the June 1992 issue of BMX Plus! Introduction of clipless pedals

<mask>, along with fellow racer Brian Lopes, is credited with starting the Mountain Bike racing SPD clipless pedals trend in BMX racing starting in the mid-1990s, moving away from the then standard platform and cage pedals for racing. They both raced with them at the ABA Fall Nationals in Burbank, California on October 22, 1994. There is controversy in BMX over the use of clipless pedals, including that rider can not maneuver their feet off and on the pedals in turns when the racer wants to set up for a pass, or stabilize his or her bicycle in a low-speed, tight turn. This reduces the opportunity to pass riders in the turns, as was commonplace in the 1980s when cage and platform pedals were the norm. Some say that clipless pedals reduce the excitement of BMX races, with the racers "following the leader" and only having the ability to pass on straights. Despite the respect given by the BMX world to <mask> and Brian Lopes, clipless pedals were not used by the majority of pro or amateur racers until the end of the year 2000.It was the late Mario Soto, a young and highly talented rookie pro who broke into the


texts: Senior pro ranks and started immediately doing very well despite his comparatively small size and being totally new to the senior pro ranks, that prompted the move. He attributed part of his success to his use of clipless pedals. Today clipless pedals are the norm in BMX racing. Wade Bootes a highly respected Senior Pro was an early adopter of clipless pedals and helped with the move to them. Another criticism of clipless pedals is that they lead to more injuries since the feet can not be readily be freed from the pedals despite their quick release feature. The racer is prevented from either stabilizing his bike by placing one foot on the ground to prevent a crash or brace himself quickly if a crash is inevitable, leading to more frequent and serious crashes involving leg and foot injury. On August 20, 2007 professional BMX racer Bubba Harris completely dislocated ankle at the talus bone in Beijing, China on the official Olympic BMX racing track during the first run of his Time Trial in the "rhythm section", a series of closely but evenly spaced jumps that you use gravity and "body English" to navigate and maintain speed.He was launched sideways by his momentum into the air, coming down on the back side of a jump with his foot still clipped into an SPD pedal. Doctors almost amputated his foot. With platform pedals his feet would have not been tied to the bicycle which acted like an anchor. As of this time he is still recovering. He expects to race the NBL Christmas Classic BMX race at the end of December 2007. He was able to fulfill that expectation, but he did not make

 the mains. Mishaps like this, though usually much less catastrophic, have ignited debate in the BMX racing community.This is particularly true among "Old School" veterans of the 1970s and 1980s who raced with caged and platform pedals. Generally the only danger with pedals of these types was that if the rider slipped a pedal, the teeth of the pedal could gouge his shin, thigh or ankle, unless the rider has protective padding. In a January 7, 2009 interview with Gary Haselhorst on the BMX discussion site "BMX Action Online" <mask> said he went to clipless pedals because, "My motivation to use SPD pedals/shoes had to do with the ABA introducing a pro time trial in 1995. Then it helped me when I was racing mountain bikes. However, I think the clip debate is overrated. I don’t think kids under 10 years old should be racing in them and I believe this has affected how tracks are designed today. They are too many cookie cutter type tracks in this country and this has slowed the progression of the sport.Racing habits and traits

 Institute of Energy Efficiency to focus research at UCSB on reducing energy consumption and has served as its director since. From 2009 to 2014, <mask> served as the director of Center Energy Efficient Materials, an initiative at the Department of Energy, Energy Frontier Research Centers. He contributed in establishing the American Institute of Manufacturing Integrated Photonics and took on the position of its Deputy Director in 2015. The Institute's work is focused on driving low cost, high volume CMOS processing of photonic integrated circuits (PICs). Entrepreneurship
Along with his career in academia, <mask> has also been involved in founding and managing several businesses for commercialization of technology. In 1996, <mask> co-founded Terabit Technology and served as its president for the next two years until it was acquired by Ciena. He later co-founded Calient Networks in 1999 and worked as the CTO of the company until 2002.With his students, he co-founded Aerius Photonics (acquired by FLIR), Aurrion (acquired by Juniper Networks), Nexus Photonics, Mirios, and Quintessent. Bowers taught classes in entrepreneurship at UCSB for over twenty years, and started the Center for

 Entrepreneurship and Engineering Management (CEEM) at UCSB, which grew into the Technology Management Program (TMP) at UCSB, which offers PhDs, Master of Technology Management and Certificates of Technology Management. Research and work
Bowers is well known for leading research in high speed lasers, modulators and photodetectors which led to advances in fiber optic system capacities in the 1980s and 1990s. Fiber optic systems were first deployed at data rates of 50 Megabits per second in the late 1970s, and rapidly advanced by a factor of 1000 to data rates of 50 Gbits per second over the next forty years. All of his early work, and most of the commercial fiber optic systems utilized components made from InGaAsP materials, which became the dominant materials system for fiber optic components. Bowers' later research focused on silicon photonics in an effort to combine the large technological infrastructure developed for silicon integrated circuits, and to expand from conventional electrical integrated circuits to PICs. This enabled a much lower cost and much higher volume production of PICs than had been previously possible.High speed modulators and photodetectors were also

 demonstrated in this materials system, but lasers were a major problem due to the inefficient light emission from silicon, which is an indirect bandgap material. <mask> and his students, Alex Fang and Hyundai Park, solved this problem by developing heterogeneous integration of InGaAsP materials on silicon, and this process was commercialized by Intel, Juniper, and others. He then pursued heterogeneous integration of other materials on silicon, such as magnetic materials (YIG), and nonlinear materials (LiNbO3, GaAs). <mask>' most recent work involves monolithic growth of high gain materials on silicon. This approach was plagued by poor efficiency and poor lifetime due to the growth defects common to heteroepitaxy. He and graduate students, Rich Mirin now at NIST, developed quantum dot lasers that are robust against degradation and led to monolithic PICs. Energy Efficiency
<mask> founded and led the Institute for Energy Efficiency at UCSB to reduce the demand for energy and consequently reduce the consumption of energy resources and reduce the production of greenhouse gasses and the impact on climate change and sustainability.This effort involved forty faculty members at UCSB in

 research on topics from more efficient light emitters to more efficient data centers. One outgrowth of more efficient light emitters, solar cells and batteries, is the impact on those without access to electricity because it is cheaper and far healthier to generate light for reading by using solar power reading lights than to burn candles, kerosene or wood. Bowers formed a nonprofit, Unite to Light, to make this technology accessible to the third world. In September of 2020, Henley Hall, a three story building containing laboratories, lecture halls, and administrative office, was completed, becoming the new home for the Institute for Energy Efficiency.
