The Genesis Awards are awarded annually by the Humane Society of the United States to individuals in the major news and entertainment media for producing outstanding works which raise public awareness of animal issues.
 Presented by the HSUS Hollywood Outreach program, the awards show takes place every March in California.
 The awards have honored such well-known personalities as Michael Jackson, Aaron Sorkin, Anderson Cooper, Peter Gabriel, Ellen DeGeneres, Jane Goodall, David E. Kelley, Paul McCartney, Arthur Miller, Stephen Colbert, Oprah Winfrey, Prince, Jacques Cousteau and Ian Somerhalder, as well as journalists, film and documentary writers and producers, print and broadcast news outlets in the United States.
Ian Joseph Somerhalder (born December 8, 1978) is an American actor, model and director.
 He is known for playing Boone Carlyle in the TV drama "Lost" and Damon Salvatore in The CW's supernatural drama "The Vampire Diaries".
"The Originals" is an American fantasy-drama television series picked up by The CW for their fall 2013 schedule, after a backdoor pilot for the series aired as an episode of The CW television series "The Vampire Diaries" in April 2013.
 It is a spin-off of "The Vampire Diaries", sharing a universe with its predecessor.
 It centers on three Mikaelson siblings, Klaus (Joseph Morgan), Elijah (Daniel Gillies), and Rebekah (Claire Holt), collectively known as "original vampires", or simply the "originals".
 "The Originals" is set in the city of New Orleans.
 It was created by Julie Plec.
"The Vampire Diaries", a one-hour American supernatural drama, was renewed for a sixth season by The CW on February 13, 2014, and it premiered on October 2, 2014.
 A majority of the episode titles for this season are named after songs released in 1994 & 1903.
 "The Vampire Diaries" was renewed for a seventh season on January 11, 2015, by The CW.
"Sporting News" established the Pitcher of the Year Award in 1944.
 Until the award was replaced by two separate awards in 2013, it was given annually to the pitcher in each league having the most outstanding season.
 No awards were given in 1946 or 1947.
 This award was established before there was a Cy Young Award.
 The Cy Young Award is voted by baseball writers from each city, and critics claim the writers who follow a particular team or player throughout a season are naturally disposed to vote for him.
 Starting in 2013, the Starting Pitcher of the Year Award and Relief Pitcher of the Year Award are given annually to the starting and relief pitchers in each league judged by "Sporting News" baseball experts as having had the most outstanding season, and is one of the oldest and most prestigious pitching awards in Major League Baseball.
Elena Gilbert is a fictional character and protagonist in the novel series "The Vampire Diaries".
 In "The Vampire Diaries", set in the fictional town of Mystic Falls, she is portrayed by Nina Dobrev.
 In the books, Elena was blonde, popular, selfish and a "mean girl".
 However the show's producers, Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson, felt that it wasn't the direction they wanted to go with their heroine in "The Vampire Diaries" television series.
 Instead, she became a nicer, relatable and more of "the girl next door" type, until her life gets flipped upside down when she meets the Salvatores.
 In April 2015, Nina Dobrev announced that she would be departing the series after the sixth season finale.
Lisa Jane Smith, known professionally as L. J. Smith, is an American author of young adult fiction best known for her best-selling series "The Vampire Diaries", which has been turned into a successful television show.
 Her books, particularly "The Vampire Diaries" and "Night World", have been in the "New York Times" Best Seller list and have been nominated for five awards.
Faunalytics, formerly the Humane Research Council, is a nonprofit organization that provides animal advocates with access to the research and analysis of various animal issues, including factory farming, veganism and vegetarianism, the overpopulation in companion animals, animal testing, hunting, animal trapping, and the use of animals for entertainment purposes (zoos, circuses, racing, fights, etc.).
Animal People, Inc. is a non-profit animal rights charity dedicated to generating knowledge and raising public awareness of animal sentience and suffering.
 Animal People was founded in 1992 with the mission of “exposing the existence of cruelty to animals and educating the public of the need to prevent and eliminate such cruelty; conducting or sponsoring animal care projects, both to directly alleviate animal suffering and to demonstrate humane methods of handling and responding to animal-related dilemmas; and studying animal-related issues via research, surveys, and investigative reports.”
 From 1992 until 2013, the organization's main project was publishing the newspaper "Animal People News", which covered current events related to animal issues worldwide.
 The newspaper was retired in 2014 following a split within the board of directors, and in 2015 Animal People launched a new project, the Animal People Forum, an online magazine and social networking site for people interested in animal rights, welfare, and conservation.
"The Vampire Diaries", a one-hour American supernatural drama, was renewed for a seventh season by The CW on January 11, 2015, and premiered on October 8, 2015.
 This is the first season to not feature Nina Dobrev as Elena Gilbert following her departure from the series after the season six finale.
 On March 11, 2016, The CW renewed "The Vampire Diaries" for an eighth and final season.
