Alexia Putellas Segura (born 4 February 1994) is a Catalan professional footballer. She plays as a midfielder for Barcelona, whom she captains, and for the Spain women's national football team.  Before this, she played for Espanyol and Levante, and she has represented Catalonia. By 2022, she had won all the major awards available to a European player, both individually and with her club. People widely consider her the best female footballer in the world right now and one of the greatest of all time. In 2022, a football reporter named Asif Burhan mentioned how her dedication to the sport has changed women's football. She has been playing for Barcelona since 2012, after spending most of her younger years with Espanyol. With Barcelona, she has achieved a lot: seven league titles, seven Copas de la Reina, and two UEFA Women's Champions League trophies. In the 2020-21 season, she played a key role in helping Barcelona win the Champions League and two other major titles for the first time in their history
. In recognition of her outstanding performance, she won several awards in 2021, including UEFA Women's Player of the Year, Ballon d'Or Féminin, and The Best FIFA Women's Player - a feat that no one had accomplished before in a single year.
As of 2022, she's the second player with the most appearances for Barcelona, just behind Melanie Serrano. She's also the second-highest all-time scorer for the club, after Jennifer Hermoso. Moreover, she holds the record for the most appearances for Spain with 104 caps, surpassing Marta Torrejón's previous record of 90 caps in 2021.

Personal life 
Putellas was really close to her dad. Even though he was sick with heart problems when she played for Levante, he always came to see her games in Valencia. She thought about studying medicine to help him. He died in 2012, just before an important tournament.

When she scores a goal, she points to the sky to remember him. She mostly speaks Catalan, learned Spanish in school when she was young, and started learning English in the 2020s. She has a pet dog named Nala, a Pomeranian, who even has an Instagram account.
She doesn't talk much about her relationships, but she did share on social media about being with her teammate Jennifer Hermoso. They even joined an event called Madrid Pride together. After winning the Champions League in 2023, a video of Putellas meeting her girlfriend in the stands became super popular on TikTok.

Putellas has lots of tattoos. Some have Latin sayings, like "Work conquers all." She also has symbols like a Hand of Fatima and an Eye of Horus, plus a Barcelona tile with "Made in" written on it. She's got a football, the number 112 (combining her first Spain shirt number, 12, and her famous shirt number, 11), and a drawing of her dad holding her as a baby and giving her a football.

Johnnie Clyde Johnson (July 8, 1924 – April 13, 2005) was an American pianist. He played jazz, blues and rock and roll. His work with Chuck Berry led to his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. 

He was posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for breaking racial barriers in the military.

Career 
Johnson began playing the piano in 1928. He joined the United States Marine Corps during World War II. He became a member of Bobby Troup's all-serviceman jazz orchestra, the Barracudas. .

Over the next 20 years, the two collaborated on many of Berry's songs, including "School Days", "Roll Over Beethoven", "Carol", and "Nadine". The song "Johnny B. Goode" was reportedly a tribute to Johnson, with the title referring to Johnson's behavior when he was drinking.
Johnson received little recognition until the Chuck Berry concert documentary, Hail! Hail! Rock 'n' Roll, was released in 1987. The experience forged a permanent bond between him, Keith Richards, Eric Clapton, and Steve Jordan. Although Johnson had been supporting himself as a bus driver in St. Louis, the exposure and experience of the film helped him return to headlining.

In 2005, he played piano on Styx's re-recording of "Blue Collar Man", entitled "Blue Collar Man @ 2120", for their album Big Bang Theory. It was recorded at Chess Studios, on the 46th anniversary of the recording of "Johnnie B. Goode" at the same studio.

Death 
Johnson died at the age of 80 from a kidney ailment and pneumonia in St. Louis on April 13, 2005. He was buried in the Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery.

After the release of a video that showed him assaulting a woman with a belt, he was removed from the show.  He and the woman in question later said that the actions in the video were consensual. During his time on the show, he had only been there for six days.
His website 
Tate's website claims that he runs a webcam studio using his girlfriend as an employee. In Romania, he and his brother started a business that sells sob stories using webcam girls.

Tate runs a website called Hustler's University which provides monthly membership fees to individuals who want to receive education on various subjects, such as cryptocurrency trading and dropshipping.

Critics noted that the program functioned as a pyramid scheme. He has asked people to to post videos of him on social media.

Social media
Social media 

Tate became known for his tweets about the sexual abuse cases involving Harvey Weinstein. He also stated that those who suffered from sexual harassment should share the blame for their actions. In 2017, he made a statement about depression that was widely criticized. Tate's accounts were suspended multiple times. In 2021, one of his accounts was mistakenly verified by Twitter, which he had created to avoid his previous ban. The account was then permanently deleted. Twitter claimed that the mistake was made due to an error, and the account had been promoted with a link.
Tate was first known as a far-right figure online due to his appearances on various right-wing sites, such as InfoWars and Jack Posobiec. He was described by The Independent's Rabbil Sikdar as a cult-like figure who is known for his anti-feminist views. Tate has called himself a misogynist and a sexist in a satirical sense while also stating that he believes that men must provide for and protect women. A popular counter argument to this claim is a video which resurfaced which depicts Tate stating that he would hit a woman with a machete, however he continually states that the context was of a woman attacking him with a machete and him defending himself. The White Ribbon Campaign, which is an organization that fights against male-on-male violence, considers his statements to be extremely misogynistic. Hope Not Hate, an activist group that fights against fascism and racism, criticized Tate's social media presence, saying it could encourage the far-right audience to follow him
. In response, Tate noted that his content mainly focuses on teaching his followers how to avoid being toxic and low-value individuals.
Tate has been involved in several controversies on social media, including making controversial comments about women, mental health, and race. Some of his social media posts have been criticized as being misogynistic, racist, and insensitive.

His commentary has resulted in various social media platforms banning him.

In the justice system
As of June 2023, Romanian authorities are charging Tate with a kind of human trafficking.

As of August 4, 2023 he does not have to stay any longer in house arrest, and he will have to show up (or come) to his trial. (Earlier decisions about having to stay in house arrest were made by the court system in March and April 2023.) Earlier decisions about having to stay in police detention (or jail) were made by the court on February 1, January 20 and January 10.

Criminal investigation
In a YouTube video, Tate said that he moved to Romania because it was easier to get away with bribery in Eastern Europe. The video was later deleted.  In April 2022, his house was raided by the country's DIICOT, an investigative agency that focuses on terrorism and organized crime.

In August 2022, the US Embassy in Romania alerted local authorities of an American woman being held at a property owned by Tate and his brother . After a surprise raid, two women, one American and one Romanian, were recovered. According to the authorities, the investigation was still ongoing. The US State Department did not comment on the incident.
On Friday, December 30, 2022, Andrew Tate, along with his brother Tristan and two Romanian nationals, came under investigation by the Directorate for Investigating Organised Crime and Terrorism (DIICOT) for their alleged involvement in an organized crime group. The group stands accused of recruiting and exploiting women, coercing them into creating pornographic content for specialized websites. In light of the investigation, prosecutors have submitted an application to extend Andrew Tate's detention at a detention center for an additional 30 days, pending a ruling from the judge. During the recent detention hearing, both brothers opted to exercise their right to remain silent. The investigation remains ongoing. He was detained by the Romanian Anti-Organized Crime Division for human sex trafficking, rape and forming an organized crime group with the intent of recruiting and housing women to create online pornography. The group is said to span Romania, the United Kingdom and the United States
. Officials have said that Tate had been under investigation since April, 2022. The two women found at his property were allegedly being held against them, with an additional four women also alleging imprisonment. It is believed that they were subjected to mental and physical violence. Allegations say that these women were told they would become married to and live with Tate.
During his arrest, he was held by Romanian police for twenty four hours for questioning. This detainment been extended for thirty days. During the search they found large sums of money and guns. Andrew Tate was detained with his brother, Tristan Tate and two other men. On 20 January, 2023, the BBC said that the justice system in Romania decided that Tate will have to stay in police detention (or jail) until 27 February 2023 . He was set free (in August 2023) from house arrest, and he will have to show up (or come) to his trial.

Le Père Goriot (, "Old Goriot" or "Father Goriot") is an 1835 novel by French novelist and playwright Honoré de Balzac (1799–1850). It is in the Scènes de la vie privée section of his novel sequence La Comédie humaine. It is set in Paris in 1819. It follows the lives of three characters: the elderly Goriot, a mysterious criminal named Vautrin and a naive law student named Eugène de Rastignac.

The novel takes place during the Bourbon Restoration. It brought major changes to French society. The struggle by individuals to reach a higher social status is a major theme in the book. Balzac analyzes through Goriot and others the nature of family and marriage that provides a pessimistic view of them.

Publication 
In the first book edition, the novel had seven chapters:
In the first volume: 
 Une Pension bourgeoise (A Bourgeois Boarding House)
 Les Deux Visites (The Two Visits)
 L'Entrée dans le Monde (The Entrance into the World)
 In the second volume:
 L'Entrée dans le Monde (Suite) (The Entrance into the World (Continuation))
 Trompe-la-Mort (Cheat-the-Death, Death-Dodger, or Dare-Devil)
 Les Deux Filles (The Two Daughters)
 La Mort du Père (The Father's Death)

The character Eugène de Rastignac had appeared as an old man in Balzac's earlier philosophical fantasy novel La Peau de chagrin. While writing the first version of Le Père Goriot, Balzac named the character "Massiac", but he decided to use the same character from La Peau de chagrin. Other characters were changed in a similar way.

Legacy 
Le Père Goriot is widely considered Balzac's essential novel. Its influence on French literature has been considerable, as shown by novelist Félicien Marceau's remark: "We are all children of Le Père Goriot."
In his book Le Pére Goriot: Anatomy of a Troubled World, Martin Kanes calls it "the keystone of the Comédie humaine". It is the central text of Anthony Pugh's study Balzac's Recurring Characters. Entire chapters have been written about the detail of the Maison Vauquer. 

Thus, says Balzac biographer Graham Robb, "Goriot is one of the novels of La Comédie humaine that can safely be read in English for what it is."

According to the editor of the Norton Critical Edition, Peter Brooks, the book is now seen as "the most endurable and popular of Balzac's myriad works" and a "classic of the [18th]-century European novel".

A well-known line of this book by Balzac is when Vautrin tells Eugene, "In that case I will make you an offer that no one would decline." 

This has been reworked by Mario Puzo in the novel The Godfather (1969) and its movie adaptation (1972) as "I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse".
It was ranked as the second most significant cinematic quote in AFI's 100 Years...100 Movie Quotes (2005) by the American Film Institute.

The Avocets are water birds which poke around in mud to get their food. They are a kind of bird which are often called "waders".

The genus name Recurvirostra comes from Latin , 'curved backwards' and , 'bill'. 

Avocets sweep their long, thin, upcurved bills from side to side when feeding in the brackish or saline wetlands they prefer. Their plumage is pied (usually black and white), sometimes also with some red.

Avocets have webbed feet and swim. Their diet consists of aquatic insects and other small creatures. Their favourite places are mudflats and estuaries. They walk around on the mud, sticking their bill into it and sweeping from side to side to find small prey.

Avocets have made a return to Britain. During WWII some land was allowed to return to its previous salt marsh condition. This was followed by the later development of nature reserves. Avocets now use the Titchfield Haven National Nature Reserve as a summer breeding ground.
