Thomas Voeckler (born 22 June 1979) is a French professional  road racing cyclist. He rides for the Europcar cycling team.

Voeckler has been called a "national hero," because he has done well in the Tour de France. His nickname is le Chouchou which means Sweetheart.

Career

Voeckler has been a professional cyclist since 2001. He entered the 2004 Tour de France and earned the yellow jersey (maillot jaune) on Stage 5. He wore the jersey for ten days, which made him famous.

In 2006 he won the fifth stage in 2006 Vuelta al País Vasco. He also won the 2006 Paris–Bourges race.

In 2009, he won his first stage in a Tour de France. Voeckler went for victory on stage 15 with about 5 km to go.

In the 2010 Tour de France he won Stage 15.
In the ninth stage of the 2011 Tour de France, Voeckler crossed the line second, taking the overall lead and therefore wearing the maillot jaune (yellow jersey). He kept the yellow jersey for 9 stages, but lost it on Stage 19. Voeckler finished the Tour in fourth place 3min 20sec behind the winner, Cadel Evans. This is his best career placement in the Tour so far. It was the best finish of any Frenchman in the Tour since Christophe Moreau came fourth in 2000.

In 2012, Thomas Voeckler earned more victories and top placements, including in the Spring Classics.

At the 2012 Tour de France, he was suffering from a knee injury and almost abandoned the race. However he won Stage 10, the first mountain stage of the race. He also won Stage 16 with four huge climbs including the Col du Tourmalet. On this stage he grabbed the polka dot jersey for best climber. He kept the jersey from the Pyrenees to the finish.
In the Ardennes Classic in 2013 Voeckler crashed and broke his collarbone. By June he recovered and won stage 6 of the Critérium du Dauphiné. Voeckler continued his winning form by winning the overall titles of the Route du Sud and the Tour du Poitou-Charentes.

Other
Voeckler is known for displaying many different facial expressions while racing, especially when trying very hard. He often sticks out his tongue. In August 2011, Voeckler raced on his bike against a horse in an exhibition contest, and lost.

Hurricane Iselle was a Pacific tropical cyclone. The storm threatened the islands of Hawaii, especially Hilo. The storm developed on July 31, 2014. Iselle is the first hurricane to hit the islands in 22 years. 

Iselle approached Hawaii as a powerful category 4 hurricane. It had sustained winds of about 120 knots (138 mph). A number of conditions caused it to weaken just before it approached Hawaii. It struck the Big Island as a strong tropical storm. The storm center made landfall at about 2:30 am on August 8. It left downed trees and about 25,000 people without electric power. The storm surge caused 25-foot waves. Airlines had to cancel about 50 flights due to the storm.

Iselle then followed a northwestern track missing the rest of the Hawaiian islands. They received  rain and winds. A woman hiker on Kauai was swept away and drowned in the storm.

The Jetsons is an American animated sitcom.  It was directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. There are 77 episodes and 3 seasons. Each episode is between 22 and 30 minutes.  The series was first broadcast in prime time from September 23, 1962, to March 17, 1963, on ABC. It was later broadcast in reruns in syndication with new episodes made from 1985 to 1987. The Jetsons was Hanna-Barbera's Space Age counterpart to The Flintstones.
While the Flintstones lived in a world which was a version of the Stone Age. The Jetsons live in a version of the same world in the future. The Flintstones had machines powered by birds and dinosaurs while the Jetsons had robotic machined, aliens, holograms, and other futuristic inventions. The original series had 24 episodes. They were broadcast on Sunday nights on ABC beginning on September 23, 1962. Prime time reruns were broadcast through September 22, 1963. It was the first program broadcast in color on ABC. The program did not get much attention. It was cancelled after one season and moved to Saturday mornings. It was very successful there.
After the primetime run, the program aired on Saturday mornings for decades. It was on ABC for the 1963–64 season and then on CBS and NBC. New episodes were produced for syndication from 1985 to 1987. No episodes of the show were made after 1989. Much of the main cast (George O'Hanlon, Mel Blanc and Daws Butler) had died in 1988 and 1989. The 1990 movie Jetsons: The Movie was the series finale to the television program. A direct-to-video animated movie, The Jetsons & WWE: Robo-WrestleMania!, was released in 2017.

Word salad is language with meaningless, scrambled words. It is a "confused or unintelligible mixture of seemingly random words and phrases". 

'Word salad' is most often used for a symptom of a neurological or mental disorder. The words may or may not be grammatically correct. The key thing is that a listener cannot get any meaning from them. The term is often used in psychiatry and theoretical linguistics to describe language which native speakers judge is meaningless.

In mental health diagnoses 
Word salad occurs in neurological or psychological cases in which a person tries to communicate, and words and phrases come out  but make no sense.  Often, the person is unaware that they did not make sense. It appears in people with dementia and schizophrenia, and after anoxic brain injury.
It may be present as:
 Receptive aphasia: damage to brain centres dealing with language.
 Schizophasia: incoherent babbling, sometimes a symptom of schizophrenia.
 Logorrhea: a mental condition characterized by excessive talking.
 Graphorrhea: a written version of word salad, rarer than logorrhea in schizophrenics.

In computing 
Word salad can be generated by a computer program for various purposes.

Mojibake, also called Buchstabensalat ("letter salad") in German, is an effect similar to word salad, in which an assortment of seemingly-random text is generated.

Karen X. Gaylord (January 4, 1921 - August 1, 2014) was an American actress, model, and former Miss Minnesota, whose career was most successful during the 1940s.
He is not married thier life.

Early Life
She was born Karen Xandra Gaylord on January 4, 1921, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, to a working class family.  She was the oldest of four children (all girls).  Her father worked as an engineer with the Northern Pacific Railway. 

After she graduated from North Community High School in 1939, Gaylord wanted to go to college to study music and art.  But then a friend of hers saw a notice in a magazine called Movie Mirror.  It said that the movie studios in California were accepting photographs with names and addresses to help them find new actors for movies.  Without telling Gaylord, her friend mailed in Gaylord's picture.  Not long after, Gaylord got a letter telling her that she had been chosen to come to California for a tryout.
The entire Gaylord family decided this would be a good chance for all of them.  The whole family moved to California with Karen.

Career in entertainment 
After moving to California, Karen began going to all of the major studios in Hollywood, doing screen and wardrobe tests (tryouts to see how she acted and looked on movie screens and in costumes). 

In 1941, Gaylord was in her first film, The Chocolate Soldier with Nelson Eddy (though she was not listed in the credits at the end of the movie).  Between 1941 and 1949, she acted in about 36 films (see the "Filmography" section lower on this page).  But she was only listed in the credits for these movies once, for the 1944 film Cover Girl with Rita Hayworth.

In 1942, the Chamber of Commerce of Minneapolis, Minnesota, chose Gaylord as their 1942 'Miss Minnesota.'  Not long after this, film producer Samuel Goldwyn chose Karen to become one of his six new Goldwyn Girls.  (The Goldwyn Girls were a group of female dancers that included some very famous women.)
Gaylord also became a popular stand-in, and stood in place for leading ladies like Linda Darnell, Barbara Stanwyck, Laraine Day, Evelyn Keyes, Gene Tierney, and Jeanne Crain.  (A stand-in plays an actor's role when the actor is not there.)

Teaching and later life 
In 1949, Gaylord left the entertainment industry.  She moved to Clearwater, Florida, to begin her lifelong dream of teaching music and art.  In 1950, she legally changed her name from Karen Xandra Gaylord to Jane Goerner. 

Up until the 1990s, she gave private music and art lessons out of her home. 

In the last years of her life, she had some serious health problems.  She sold her home and moved to Ocala, Florida, to live with her sister and brother-in-law.  She died in her sleep at the age of 93 on August 1, 2014.  There were no funeral services or memorials.  Her body was donated to medical science through the body donation program at the University of Florida's College of Medicine.

Richard Virenque (born 19 November 1969) is a French retired professional cyclist. He was one of the most popular French riders. He won the King of the Mountains competition of the Tour de France seven times, which is more than any other cyclist. Virenque finished third in the Tour de France in 1996 and second in 1997.

He was part of a famous doping scandal in 1998.

Early career

He rode for the Vélo Club Hyèrois from the age of 13. He said he knew he could climb well from the start.

His first win was in a race round the town at La Valette-du-Var. He and another rider, Pascale Ranucci, lapped everyone else. He then did his national service in the army battalion at Joinville in Paris.

In 1990 he came eighth in the world championship road race at Utsunomiya, Tochigi in Japan. He was then offered a professional contract with the team RMO.

Professional career
He turned professional for RMO in January 1991.
Virenque rode his first Tour de France in 1992 as a replacement for Jean-Philippe Dojwa. On the third day he took the maillot jaune of leadership and held it for a day, losing it to his team-mate Pascal Lino, who led for the next two weeks. Virenque finished second in the polka dot jersey climbers' competition.

After the Tour de France Virenque joined another French team, Festina. He stayed there until the team closed down after a doping scandal in 1998.

Virenque first wore the yellow jersey of the Tour de France in 1992 and for the last time in 2003. In 2003 he wore the jersey on the climb of Alpe d'Huez.

Virenque was good at climbing but not at time trials.

Festina affair
In 1998 the Festina cycling team was disgraced by a doping scandal, known as the Festina affair.

Virenque's teammates, Christophe Moreau, Laurent Brochard and Armin Meier, admitted taking EPO after being arrested during the Tour and were disqualified. Virenque said he was innocent.
Virenque changed teams to Team Polti in January 1999. He rode the Giro d'Italia in 1999 and won a stage.

A few weeks later Virenque's name emerged in an inquiry into Bernard Sainz.  Sainz was later jailed for practising as an unqualified doctor. Franco Polti, the head of Virenque's team, fined him 30 million lire.

Race director Jean-Marie Leblanc banned Virenque from the 1999 Tour de France. He was made to let Virenque race by the Union Cycliste Internationale. Leblanc said he hoped Virenque would not win. Virenque rode on a bicycle painted white with red dots to resemble the polkadot jersey of best climber, but he didn't win the competition. He had a bodyguard, Gilles Pagliuca.

In 1999 he wrote a book called Ma Vérité. In the book he said he was innocent of doping. He wrote that his team-mates confessed to using EPO because of pressure from the police. He said Moreau's urine showed EPO had not been detected.
The Festina affair led to a trial in October 2000. Virenque was a witness as well as others from the Festina team. He at first denied he had doped himself but then confessed. But he denied doping himself intentionally.

Virenque was criticised by the media and satirists for denying doping even though there was evidence. He was also criticised for pretending he had been doped without his knowledge.

Virenque lived near Geneva in Switzerland and the Swiss cycling association suspended him for nine months. The sentence was reduced by an independent tribunal to six and a half months. He was fined the equivalent of 2,600 euros and told to pay 1,300 euros in costs. He became depressed.

Post-suspension career
It was difficult for Virenque to find a team after he returned from his suspension.

On 5 July 2001 he joined Domo-Farm Frites. He had help from Eddy Merckx who paid the extra money after the main sponsors wouldn't pay. Domo kept him the following season. On 25 October 2002 he signed for another two years.
Virenque returned to fame by winning Paris–Tours on 7 October 2001. This was unusual because Paris–Tours is a flat race and sprinters usually win,  not climbers.  The French magazine, Vélo, called the victory "extraordinary." L'Équipe 's headline on the front page was "Unbelievable!"

Virenque was beaten by Laurent Jalabert in the 2001 and 2002 Tour de France King of the Mountains competition. He won his sixth polka dot jersey in 2003. In 2004 he won the polka dot jersey for the seventh time. This is the most of any cyclist.

Retirement
Virenque rode the Olympic Games road race in Athens.  He announced his retirement on 24 September 2004.

He won Je suis une célébrité, sortez-moi de là! (the French version of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!) in Brazil in April 2006. In autumn 2005 he opened Virenque Design, a company to design and sell jewellery. Since 2005 he has been a commentator for Eurosport. He has also advertised an energy drink and a pharmacy company.
Personal life
In December 2007, Virenque and his wife, Stéphanie, divorced. They had been together for 17 years. They have two children, Clara and Dario.

Virenque lives at Carqueiranne in the Var region of France. He likes dancing, wine, gardening and flowers. "Put me in a good garden nursery and I'm in heaven," he says.

The Roman Catholic Church in Canada is part of the world wide Catholic Church. As of 2008, it was the third largest religious body in Canada. Over 13 million Canadians (46% of population) was a baptized member of the Catholic Church.

Catholics first settled in Canada in the 1600s, when French settlers founded Quebec City. In the 1620s, British Catholics were allowed to settle on Newfoundland. A seminary was started in Quebec City in 1663. In 1674, Pope Clement X started a diocese in Quebec City, which was the first episcopal see in the Americas north of Mexico. This diocese became the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Quebec in 1819. The diocese originally covered all of Canada but other diocese were created during the 19th century.
