## Pre-race favorites

Laurent Jalabert, who had not raced the Amstel Gold Race since Amstel Gold Race where he vowed never to race it again, was considered the favourite to win. With current Vuelta a España champion Alex Zulle as his closest rival even though they both ride for ONCE. Other main contenders were expected to be; Michele Bartoli (MG Maglificio–Technogym), Bjarne Riis (Team Telekom), Johan Museeuw (Mapei–GB), Peter van Petegem (TVM–Farm Frites), Erik Zabel (Team Telekom) and Rolf Sorensen (Rabobank).

## Race summary

The race started at 10am local time with the weather being heavy cloud and a cool 9 degrees Celsius, there was a possibility for a light shower. A small breakaway of three riders got away early they were John Talen (Foreldorado-Golff), Fabio Roscioli (Asics–CGA) and Frédéric Bessy (Casino). After three hours of racing the trio had a gap of 5'45" to a chasing group containing Rolf Aldag (Team Telekom), Rolf Järmann (Casino), Marc Wauters (Lotto–Mobistar–Isoglass) and Erik Dekker (Rabobank). Then a further 1' 51" back to the peloton.

By the time they reached the Gulpenerberg, the gap the leaders had on the peloton had reduced to 1'20" with a new duo 50" behind them. Ten minutes later the all the riders were back together. More riders attack but are all eventually caught by the Peloton. At 65km to go, a group of 17 riders including some of the favorites created a small gap. Both Jalabert and Zulle missed the move. Mauro Gianetti (Française des Jeux) and Laurent Roux (TVM–Farm Frites) attack over the Cauberg gaining 6 seconds over the rest of the bunch. Riis responded and rides across the gap to the leaders, five more riders came across later.

The eight riders were together over the Muizenberg when Riis headed to the back of the bunch and looked for his team car. He had a front wheel puncture, and gave a rude gesture to his team manager for taking so long to change his tire. Riis had to chase back to the leaders flying past them and attacking as he caught them. Riis gains an advantage of 41 seconds holding his lead to the line. The group behind Riis splintered over the final climbs with Tafi winning the sprint for second. He became the first Danish winner of the race.

# Ascot High School

**Ascot High School** is a public Catholic secondary school, located in Kingston, Jamaica. The co-educational school was founded in 1997.

## Early beginnings

Ascot High School was founded in Jamaica in September 1.1997 with 1440 dedicated and hard-working students and one first form students and a faculty of 40 prominent teachers that will dedicate their life of teaching these ascot students, The new school opened its doors, and the first lessons were given that day in a pavilion and in the newly classrooms that were made to institute these students, It began on the premises of Ascot Basic School but moved to the Middle of both Schools NE 20 Street, Kasauli, Saint Catherine on 1 September 1997. To make room for the growing needs of Ascot High School, it graduated its last class in December 2002, just as twenty-two years had taken in its first students to supply the needs of Ascot Primary School. the former Superior's residence at Kasauli Road, was the property of the Ascot Community before it and the large adjoining field in the middle of both Prominet schools was socialized by the Ascot Community.

In Addition, The Ascotian's bought a Large Property to facilitate the growing of crops and establish the mastery and adeptness of Agricultural Production, in that time the Enrollment was 500 students, but more classroom space was needed. In 2007, the construction of a new building was authorized by the Headmaster/Principal.

On June 13, 2013, Higher Distinguished education will soon be available at the Ascot High School in Portmore, St. Catherine, as ground was broken on June 12 for the construction of its sixth form block. The sixth form programme, which is slated to commence in September 2013, will offer subjects in the Humanities and Science and Technology areas, as well as courses in professional development and leadership training. Addressing the groundbreaking ceremony, by Lordship and leadership the Minister of Education, Hon. Rev. Ronald Thwaites, noted that the subjects to be offered are significant and ties in with the policy direction of the Ministry. He said “This is quite different from the traditional sixth form and it expresses precisely the policy of the Ministry of Education, which lifts up the academic subjects that are the traditional (ones). You will be offering much more than that at an advanced level, because you will be offering technical and vocational studies and artistic and cultural studies,” the Minister said.

In addition to the future of Ascot and to the Education of it, the new building was erected. The leadership of the Science Block has laboratories and classrooms for Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. Its construction, supervised by the former Principal/headmaster Cedric Murray, was finished in December 2013 and opened for use in January 2014. The formal dedication and opening took place on 24 February 2014, when it was blessed by Hon. Rev. Ronald Thwaites, JOV, Jamaica, Ministry of Education

## Becoming a government school

Ascot High School is built to become a grant-in-aid school in 1997, and it became a part of the Government's educational system. The Jamaican Government would provide the salaries of the teaching faculty and staff. This new status, however, forced the Ascot Community to give up some control of the school to the Ministry of Education. In 1956, the Ministry of Education established a Common Entrance Examination, ending the college's own entrance examination and selection of its students. The Grade Six Achievement Test (GSAT) was initiated in 1998, further regularizing the entrance of students.

Discipline has always been a strong element of Ascot High School, to maintain discipline but also to encourage a spirit of competition. To this end, The student body was divided into three "houses": Tulip, Hibiscus, and Marigold, named after the school Pride and colors.: These five houses became rivals for leadership in studies, sports, and discipline, Sportsmanship.

## Recent development

The School has continued to excel in innovation and leadership and The 1st Jamaica Zen-Do-Kai-Kan/Ascot High School Karate team and Compete against some of the best in the country and the world and Ascot Wonderful girls rugby team scored 20 to nil against Cedar Grove Academy on January 28, 2020.

## Motto

The school's motto is in opus victoriae, translated as "Working for success".

## Activities, sports, service

The school attends 45 clubs and societies and 15 different sports, including participation in all national sports competitions. A service project is required each term from each of the clubs, besides the following specifically service-oriented groups: Interact Club (branch of Rotary International), High Key (Branch of Key Club), Drama Club, Tourism Club (Branch of Tourism Board), Entrepreneurship Club, Robotics Club, Cadet Unit Club, Tourism Action Club, Ministry Outreach Group (visits indigent elderly), and "more"

The 1999 Major League Baseball All-Star Game was the 70th playing of the midsummer classic between the all-stars of the American League (AL) and National League (NL), the two leagues comprising Major League Baseball. The game was held on July 13, 1999, at Fenway Park in Boston, Massachusetts, the home of the Boston Red Sox of the American League. Fenway Park was chosen as host because the owners at the time were planning to build a New Fenway Park in a few years but were unable to get the project off the ground in time for the game. The closing of Tiger Stadium in Detroit, Michigan, along with the move of the Milwaukee Brewers to the National League and the delay in the construction of Miller Park also played a role in the Red Sox being awarded the game. The pre-game ceremonies featured introductions of nominees for the All-Century Team, including longtime Red Sox outfielder Ted Williams. In two innings, AL starting pitcher Pedro Martínez struck out the first four batters of the National League, becoming the first pitcher in history to begin the All-Star Game striking out the side. In all he struck out five of the six batters he faced, earning him Game MVP honors, becoming the second player in All-Star Game history to be named MVP as a member of the host team. The game resulted in a win for the American League by the final score of 4-1.
Starting with the 1999 All-Star Game, the games would always be held either on the 2nd or 3rd Tuesday of July, from 1999 to 2017, it was held between July 9 and July 16, and on July 17 in 2018.

title: Emperor Go-Mizunoo

abstract: Kotohito, posthumously honored as Emperor Go-Mizunoo, was the 108th Emperor of Japan, according to the traditional order of succession. Go-Mizunoo's reign spanned the years from 1611 through 1629, and he was the first emperor to reign entirely during the Edo period. This 17th-century sovereign was named after the 9th-century Emperor Seiwa, sometimes posthumously referred to as Mizunoo (水尾) because this is the location of his tomb, and translates as "later", and thus, he could be called the "Later Emperor Mizunoo". The Japanese word go has also been translated to mean the "second one", and in some older sources, this emperor may be identified as "Mizunoo II".

# Emperor Go-Mizunoo

**Kotohito** (政仁, 29 June 1596 – 11 September 1680), posthumously honored as **Emperor Go-Mizunoo** (後水尾天皇, *Gomizunō Tennō*), was the 108th Emperor of Japan, according to the traditional order of succession. Go-Mizunoo's reign spanned the years from 1611 through 1629, and he was the first emperor to reign entirely during the Edo period.

This 17th-century sovereign was named after the 9th-century Emperor Seiwa, sometimes posthumously referred to as Mizunoo (水尾) because this is the location of his tomb, and translates as "later", and thus, he could be called the "Later Emperor Mizunoo". The Japanese word *go* has also been translated to mean the "second one", and in some older sources, this emperor may be identified as "Mizunoo II".

## Events

Prince Masahito became emperor following the abdication of his emperor-father. The succession (the *senso*) was considered to have been received by the new monarch; and shortly thereafter, Emperor Go-Mizunoo is said to have acceded (the *sokui*). A distinct act of *senso* is unrecognized prior to Emperor Tenji; and all sovereigns except Jitō, Yōzei, Go-Toba, and Fushimi have *senso* and *sokui* in the same year until the reign of Emperor Go-Murakami. The events during Go-Mizunoo's lifetime shed some light on his reign. The years correspond with a period in which Tokugawa Hidetada and Tokugawa Iemitsu were leaders at the pinnacle of the Tokugawa shogunate.

On 29 June 1596, Masahito, who would be known posthumously as Go-Minzunoo, was born. Toyotomi Hideyori came to Miyako to visit the former-Shōgun Tokugawa Ieyasu on 20 May 1610 (*Keichō 15, 27th day of the 3rd month*); the same day, Go-Yōzei announced his intention to renounce the throne. Following the abdication during the 26th year of Go-Yōzei*-tennō*'s reign (後陽成天皇二十六年) on 9 May 1611 (*Keichō 16*), 16-year-old Go-Mizunoo became Emperor. The Siege of Osaka, during which Shōgun Tokugawa Hidetada vanquished Toyotomi Hideyori and set fire to Osaka Castle, occurred in 1614 (*Keichō 19*). He returned to Edo for the winter.

A strong earthquake struck on 26 November 1614 (*Keichō 19, 25th day of the 10th month*). A great bell for Daibutsu Temple in Kyoto was cast, also in that year. The Osaka Summer Battle began in 1615 (*Keichō 20*). Tokugawa Ieyasu and his son, Shōgun Hidetada, marched again to Osaka Castle(*Genna 1*), which was captured and burned. Hideyori was thought to have died by suicide but his body was never found. It was rumored he had fled to Satsuma, where a refuge had been prepared for him in advance. Ieyasu died at Suruga the following year (*Genna 2, 17th day of the 4th month*) and Former-Emperor Go-Yōzei died in 1617 (*Genna 3, 26th day of the 8th month*). Go-Yōzei was buried at the North Fukakusa Burial Mound (深草北陵, *Fukakusa no Kita no Misasagi*). Tokugawa Masako, daughter of Shōgun Hidetada, entered the palace as a consort of the emperor and the two married (*Genna 6*). A number of severe fires broke out in Kyoto during April 1620 (*Genna 6*).

In 1623, the Emperor made Tokugawa Iemitsu, son of Hidetada, a Shōgun (*Genna 9*) and later visited Nijō Castle (*Kan'ei 3, 6th day of the 9th month*). The "Purple Robe Incident" (紫衣事件, *shi-e jiken*) occurred in 1627 (*Kan'ei 6*) when the Emperor was accused of having bestowed honorific purple garments to more than ten priests despite the shōgun's edict which banned them for two years, a practice probably set in place to break the bond between the Emperor and religious circles. The shogunate intervened and made the bestowing of the garments invalid. The priests which had been honored by the emperor were sent into exile by the bakufu. Go-Mizunoo abdicated on 22 December 1629 (*Kan'ei 6, 8th day of the 11th month*), renouncing the throne to his daughter, Okiko, on the same day that the priests of the "Purple Robe Incident" went into exile. Okiko became the Empress Meishō. For the rest of his long life, Go-Mizuno*-in* concentrated on various aesthetic projects and interests, of which perhaps the best-known are the magnificent Japanese gardens of the Shugakuin Imperial Villa.

Former Emperor Go-Mizunoo died on 11 September 1680 (*Enpō 8, 19th day of the 8th month*). Go-Mizunoo's memory is honored at Sennyū-ji in Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto where a designated Imperial mausoleum (*misasagi*) is located. It is named *Tsuki no wa no misasagi*. Also enshrined are this emperor's immediate Imperial successors – Meishō, Go-Kōmyō, Go-Sai, Reigen, Higashiyama, Nakamikado, Sakuramachi, Momozono, Go-Sakuramachi and Go-Momozono.

### Kugyō

*Kugyō* (公卿) is a collective term for the very few most powerful men attached to the court of the Emperor of Japan in pre-Meiji eras. Even during those years in which the court's actual influence outside the palace walls was minimal, the hierarchic organization persisted.

In general, this elite group included only three to four men at a time. These were hereditary courtiers whose experience and background would have brought them to the pinnacle of a life's career. During Go-Mizunoo's reign, this apex of the *Daijō-kan* included: *Kampaku*, Kujō Yukiie (1608–1612), *Kampaku*, Takatsukasa Nobuhisa (1612–1615), *Kampaku*, Nijō Akizane (1615–1619), *Kampaku*, Kujō Yukiie (1619–1623), *Kampaku*, Konoe Nobuhiro, (1623–1629), *Kampaku*, Ichijō Akiyoshi (1629), *Sadaijin*, *Udaijin*, Konoe Nobuhiro (1619), *Naidaijin*, and *Dainagon*

## Eras

The years of Go-Mizunoo's reign are more specifically identified by more than one era name or *nengō*: *Keichō* (1596–1615), *Genna* (1615–1624), and *Kan'ei* (1624–1644).

title: Elementary cognitive task

abstract: An elementary cognitive task (ECT) is any of a range of basic tasks which require only a small number of mental processes and which have easily specified correct outcomes. The term was proposed by John Bissell Carroll in 1980, who posited that all test performance could be analyzed and broken down to building blocks called ECTs. Test batteries such as Microtox were developed based on this theory and have shown utility in the evaluation of test subjects under the influence of carbon monoxide or alcohol.

title: 1886 Open Championship

abstract: The 1886 Open Championship was the 26th Open Championship, held 5 November at the Musselburgh Links, Musselburgh, East Lothian, Scotland. David Brown won by two strokes from Willie Campbell. The contest consisted of four rounds of the nine-hole course. There were 42 entries, including seven amateurs. Horace Hutchinson and Johnny Laidlay were the two leading amateurs playing. Local Musselburgh professionals dominated the field, providing 19 of the professional entries. Brown and John Lambert led after the first round, both scoring 38. Lambert and Willie Campbell led after two rounds on 78, with Brown on 79 with Willie Fernie and Ben Campbell. Brown had an excellent 37 in the third round and took a one-stroke lead over Willie Campbell. They both fared badly at the 3rd hole, where Brown took 7 and Campbell took 8. Campbell was ahead in the final round until he took seven at the 5th, having been bunkered twice on the hole. Eventually Brown finished two ahead of Campbell, finishing with two threes to Campbell's two fours. Willie Park Jr. finished strongly, but his chances were ruined by taking 34 on the first six holes of his first round.
