# Lauren Elder (born 1990)

Lauren Elder is an American artist, born in 1990.

## Life and career

Lauren Elder was born in 1990 in Los Angeles.
Her works include mostly sculptures, that mean to explore "the transformation of symbolic behaviour through mass production and the resulting loss of information. Her aim is to recreate the commercial promise of the "all-in-one" consumer object through the use of failure in construction and functionality."
Her work has been exhibited at Steve Turner Contemporary, LA, at UMOCA, Salt Lake City, at Robert Bills Contemporary, Chicago, at MOMA PS1, New York, at Oliver Francis Gallery, Dallas, at Courtney Blades, Chicago, at Church Porch Gallery, Chicago, at Library Plus, London, at Arti et Amicitiae, Netherlands at West Lane South, London, and at Rod Barton, London.
According to Artsy, "Elder joins a cohort of young, L.A.-based new media artists—including Petra Cortright and Amalia Ulman—who are challenging how art and identity are developed in the technological age". For Dazed, with Elder "digi pop art gets anthropological". She is a member of the collective Miami Dutch, also known as No-New Info.
Elder lives and works in Chicago and LA.
# Litz (Austria)

The Litz is a river of Vorarlberg, Austria.
The Litz has a length of about 22 km (14 mi). It originates from a 7-fold spring near the Alpe Fresch (alpine pasture Fresch [de]) on approximately 1,800 m (5,900 ft) above sea level. Another part of the water comes from the lake Langsee, which seeps subterraneously into the Litz.
In the course of time the Litz created the valley Silbertal in a slightly bellied river course. The Gaflunerbach (length: 6.5 km (4.0 mi)) comes from the valley Gaflunertal and discharges into the Litz from the right. The Litz passes Silbertal, traverses the area of Bartholomäberg and of Schruns, where it finally discharges into the Ill.

# Delta2 Chamaeleontis

Delta$^2$ Chamaeleontis, Latinized from δ$^2$ Chamaeleontis, is a solitary star located in the southern circumpolar constellation of Chamaeleon. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 4.42, which is bright enough for the star to be seen with the naked eye. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 9.30 mas, it is located around 351 light years from the Sun. This star is one of two stars named Delta Chamaeleontis, the other being the fainter Delta$^1$ Chamaeleontis located about 6 arcminutes away. Delta Chamaeleontis forms the southernmost component of the constellation's "dipper" or bowl. Together with Gamma Chamaeleontis, they point to a spot that is within 2° of the south celestial pole.
This is a B-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of B3 V. However, Hiltner et al. (1969) give a classification of B2.5 IV, which would suggest it is a more evolved subgiant star. It is estimated to have five times the mass of the Sun and 3.9 times the Sun's radius. With an age of 32.6 million years, it is radiating over 500 times the solar luminosity from its outer atmosphere at an effective temperature of 15,873 K. There is a 70% likelihood that this star is a member of Gould's Belt.

# Laureus World Sports Award for Team of the Year

The Laureus World Sports Award for Team of the Year is an award honouring the achievements of those teams who have demonstrated "supreme performance" in the world of sports. It was first awarded in 2000 as one of the seven constituent awards presented during the Laureus World Sports Awards. The awards are presented by the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation, a global organisation involved in more than 150 charity projects supporting 500,000 young people. The first ceremony was held on 25 May 2000 in Monte Carlo, at which Nelson Mandela gave the keynote speech. As of 2020, a shortlist of six nominees for the award comes from a panel composed of the "world's leading sports editors, writers and broadcasters". The Laureus World Sports Academy then selects the winner who is presented with a Laureus statuette, created by Cartier, at an annual awards ceremony held in various locations around the world. The awards are considered highly prestigious and are frequently referred to as the sporting equivalent of "Oscars".
The inaugural winner of the award was English football team Manchester United, who had completed an "historic treble" by winning the UEFA Champions League, the Premier League and the FA Cup during the 1998–99 season. Football teams, including both domestic and international sides, have won more awards than any other sport with eleven, followed by rugby union (four) and Formula One teams (three). Teams from France, Germany and Spain have won the award three times, while teams from England and South Africa have won it twice. The 2024 winner of the Laureus World Sports Award for Team of the Year was the Spain women's national football team.
