Dominic Thiem (German pronunciation: [ˈdɔmɪnɪk ˈtiːm]; born 3 September 1993) is an Austrian professional tennis player. He has been ranked as high as world No. 3 in singles by the Association of Tennis Professionals, which he first achieved in March 2020. He is the second-highest ranked Austrian player in history, behind former world No. 1 Thomas Muster. He has won 17 ATP Tour singles titles, including one Grand Slam title at the 2020 US Open where he came back from two sets down to defeat Alexander Zverev in the final. With the win, Thiem became the first male player born in the 1990s to claim a Grand Slam singles title, as well as the first Austrian to win a US Open singles title. He had previously reached three other Grand Slam finals, losing at the 2018 and 2019 French Open to Rafael Nadal, and at the 2020 Australian Open to Novak Djokovic. Thiem was also runner-up at the 2019 and 2020 ATP Finals, where he lost to Stefanos Tsitsipas and Daniil Medvedev respectively. As a junior, Thiem was ranked as high as No. 2 in the world. He was runner-up at the 2011 French Open Boys tournament, and won the 2011 Orange Bowl. As a professional, he broke into the top 100 for the first time in 2014. In 2015, he won his first ATP title at the 2015 Open de Nice Côte d'Azur in France. The next year he reached his first Grand Slam semifinal at the 2016 French Open. In doing so, he first entered the top ten of the world rankings, where he has since been a permanent fixture. He went on to reach his first ATP Tour Masters 1000 final in 2017 at the Madrid Open, before reaching his first Grand Slam final the following year. Thiem won his first Masters 1000 title at the 2019 Indian Wells Masters, beating Roger Federer in the final. Thiem has some of the biggest groundstrokes of the tour, consistently hitting big with both his forehand and his single handed backhand. Generally thought of as a baseliner he has added more variety with the use of slice backhand and more netplay since adding coach Nicolás Massú to his team in March 2019. At 1.85 m (6 ft 1 in), he possesses a serve reaching up to 145 miles per hour (233 km/h), which he often uses to set up effective one-two punches. He won the Austrian Sportsman of the Year award for 2020, the fourth time a tennis player has won the award since its creation in 1949.

Delahaye was an automotive product manufacturing company founded by Émile Delahaye in 1894, in Tours, France, his home town. Delahaye acquired two partners, for investment capital, and a larger factory. In 1898, the newly incorporated company moved to the partners' vacant premised at 10, rue du Banquier, in Paris. Delahaye was a two-family-owned company entrenched in the same Paris factory, from 1898 until its winding down, at the end of 1954. In the interi, Delahaye acquired a failing truck manufacturer for its assembly space, to augment its own. Delahaye acquired the assets of Delage in 1935, but not its premises. Delage chassis were built under the same roof, at number 10 rue du Banquier. Delage parts inventory was first consumed, then replaced by Delahaye's. Delage's D6-70, and Delahaye's Type 135 were near clones, except Delage had half a litre less displacement, and modern hydraulic brakes, while the 135's were mechanical. Delahaye's Type 148 was simultaneously built, and had hydraulic brakes as well, as did the Delahaye Types 145 and 155 racecars; and, the grand-touring Type 165. By 1936 mechanical brakes were obsolete, despite respectable stopping ability. By 1936 only Bugatti, and the Delahaye Type 135, had mechanical brakes. The coachbuilt cars Delahaye manufactured, particularly between 1934 and 1939, being the Types 134, 135, 138, 145, 148, 155 and 165 chassis, and the Delage D6-70 and D8-120, sprang from the drawing board of chief design-engineer Jean Francois. These attractive cars set Delahaye's star in the French automobile industry firmament. After the war, the second and last large-displacement Delahayes, the Type 175, 178 and 180 series, was belatedly introduced. The Type 175 was planned to debut in 1939, or 1940 at the latest, but did not, due to the outbreak of war. Paris fell to German occupation in June 1940. The new chassis-series had to await the return of peace. The new six-cylinder, large displacement, chassis series was modern, and sophisticated in its structure and mechanicals. These platforms powered trend-setting, fashionably styled cars, but the series was not a success. Production ceased in 1951. With only one-hundred-and-seven cars were recorded. There were unresolved engineering issues resulting from the chief design-engineer's demise from a lung disease. Those issues were went into production. Mechanical components that relied on high-tensile-strength steel for crucial suspension system forgings, unexpectedly failed, some catastrophically. Accidents occurred, and damages were sustained by an undisclosed number of wealthy owners. Delahaye was compelled to buy back around twelve coachbuilt cars from their upset owners, to defuse costly litigation, and avoid public embarrassment. The specified steel-grade was unavailable, soon after the war, having been consumed in the war effort. As well,France's steel-mills were heavily bomb damaged, requiring time to rebuild for production to resume. But not only was there a crucial steel grade shortage, the French government imposed a punitive luxury tax on non-essentials, including cars with engines over two litres. The socio-economic situation in early postwar France was in chaos. The franc was repeatedly devalued; unemployment ran rampant; inflation was out of control; socialistic idealism coupled with unionization efforts and disruptive national strikes, fueled by the French Communist Party in ascension, prospects for success were improbable. Twenty-four cars are registered with Club Delahaye, the global authority, as recorded Survivors. The first, and last built, are among them. Emile Delahaye was an educated, qualified, experienced mechanical engineer. He gained considerable knowledge in the Crail locomotive works, and the French army, prior to purchasing the retiring Monsieur Berthon's foundry and machine-works. The business was situated in a cluster of ancient stone and timber structures that monsieur Berthon acquired as needed. The Berthon works primarily manufactured products for the ceramics industry. When Emile assumed control, it soon specialized in pumps, powered by a variety of petroleum and steam driven engines. Emile Delahaye decided to diversify. He conceived, designed, engineered, and built, his first automobile in 1894. He distrusted outside suppliers, so he and his seventy workers fabricated and assembled the first Delahaye, in-house. His four-wheeled, tiller-steered automobile was displayed in the first motorized vehicle exhibition, held in a Paris art gallery in 1895. Among the motorized tricycles, and motorcycles, Emile's was one of the two cars there. Emile Delahaye was one of the earliest of pioneers in the French automobile industry. He was respected for his inventiveness, competent engineering, and exceptional build quality utilizing only the best of materials. That first Delahaye introduced electric-spark ignition, unlike the primitive alternatives utilized by competitors. These early Delahayes were belt-driven, with single, or twin-cylinder engines, mounted at the rear. His Type One was an instant success. Emile urgently needed far more operating capital; a larger facility, with much more assembly space; and, the latest in sophisticated machine-tools, to satisfy demand. Those were provided by a new Delahaye owner and fellow racer, George Morane; and, his brother-in-law, Leon Desmarais. They partnered equally with Émile, in the incorporation of the "Societe Des Automobiles Delahaye" in 1898. The three worked alongside Emile's seventy-five employees, to fabricate parts, and assemble automobiles. But, middle-aged Émile's health was in rapid decline. In January 1901, Delahaye realized he was unable to capably continue as president, sole engineer, and administrator. Not having an heir to assume his roles, he resigned, and sold his shares to his partners. Leon Desmarais purchased more of Delahaye's shares than did his brother-in-law George Morane. In due course, Leon's widow would be the predominant shareholder, and chair of the board-of-directors. Emile died in 1905, soon after the enormous, multi-valve, dual overhead cam, Titan marine-engine, created by Amadee Varlet, set the world speed record on water, in the purpose-built speedboat, La Dubonnet, driven by Andre Dubonnet, heir to the apparatif fortune. To delegate responsibilities, and assist the partnership, in 1898 Emile hired two instrumental mechanical engineers: 26 year old Charles Weiffenbach as his administration assistant, and the older, more experienced, Amédée Varlet, as the company's design-engineer. Both remained with Delahaye their entire working career. Amadee Varlet, by then in his eighties, retired shortly before France was invaded by Germany in June 1940. He had no reason to continue, since the French government had curtailed all automobile manufacturing in mid June 1939. Every auto-maker was ordered to convert their machine tools to the production of war materiel. Varlet's engineering role was effectively usurped, since the company was ordered to make Enfield rifles, and Hispano-Suiza, V8, aircraft-engine parts. Neither had cause of an engineer, that being addressed with licensed, engineered, proprietary production drawings and specifications, augmented with patterns, molds, and more, provided by the subject manufacturer. In 1906, Charles Weiffenbach was appointed Manager of Operations by George Morane and Leon Desmarais. Weiffenbach assumed control of all operations, and corporate decision-making, and promptly curtailed all motor-sports activity, considering racing to be an extravagantly flagrant misuse of corporate resources. Charles Weiffenbach was at the helm of Delahaye, from the company's incorporation in 1898, until its closure, when the doors were locked the the final time, on December 31st, 1954. Amédée Varlet was the company's only engineer, from his hiring in 1898, to 1932, when he was promoted to manage the new drawing office, and racing department. He capably fulfilled the dual role, assisted by the incoming young design-engineer Jean Francois, until mid 39, when automobile manufacturing ceased across France, to make way for the government's prioritized production of war materiel. Twenty-six years old when hired, Charles Weiffenbach was significantly younger than his compatriot. Weiffenbach's forte was administration, rather than new product engineering, despite his qualifications. He was hired as Emile's assistant: his right-hand-man, and second-in-command. Both hirings were instrumental. Varlet focused his attention on innovations and new products. He was expert in technical advancements, and manufacturing techniques in low-volume, limited production. While Varlet was busy being inventive, and supervising manufacturing processes, product testing, and vehicle production, Weiffenbach was responsible for the decisions keeping the company's doors open, for its two marriage-related families of shareholders to realize a modest profit. Delahaye remained a family-owned company throughout its entire six decade history. That fact limited its potential to grow and compete with the much larger, public subscribed car-makers like Renault, Citroen, Peugeot and Simca. At Delahaye, the directors were the shareholders, and the shareholders were the directors. The executives were family-members, appointed as executive in accordance by the directors' wishes. None were actually qualified experts in the automobile realm. The only director outside the families, was Charles Weiffenbach. The families had a say in what the company did, or did not do, unlike the mass-production manufacturers, where speculating avaricious shareholders focused on dividend distributions and consistent annual share-value growth, relying on the directorship to invariably, reliably, and consistently, steer their awkward conveyance in the best direction possible. Anything less instigated a change in directorship. The business management practices between Delahaye and the large companies could hardly have been more disparate. Emile Delahaye's partners owned a prosperous Paris copper-smithing enterprise; and together had inherited a vacant Paris factory that needed a longterm tenant. The timing of their meeting with successful Tours businessman Emile Delahaye, and their mutual incorporation of the new automotive company, was fortuitous for all concerned. Delahaye moved from its cluster of old, disjointed, inefficient, low roofed stone structures in Tours, into Morane's and Desmarais' impressively modern, reinforced concrete and heavy-timber constructed Paris factory, at number 10, rue du Banquier. Emile Delahaye retained ownership of his Tours foundry and machine-works. The old Berthon-founddd enterprise continued making Delahaye automobile engines and other components, that were transported to Paris for assembly. That remained the procedure, until the Paris facility was equipped and staffed, to take over, after the first World war. Emile Delahaye died in 1905, without an heir to assume control of his successful Tours enterprise; and, participate in the ownership of the burgeoning Delahaye automotive product manufacturing company. It is not recorded what transpired upon his death. The presumption is that, since neither Morane nor Desmarais were involved in the foundry and machine-works, that the business was sold to settle the estate. Delahaye remained entrenched at 10 rue du Banquier, until Charles Weiffenbach locked the factory doors forever, at 5:00 PM, on Friday, December 31, 1954. Amédée Varlet is credited with a number of inventions that Delahaye patented. Two of those, registered between 1905, and 1910, included the multi-valve, dual-overhead-cam head; and, the V6 engine configuration. Neither invention was effectively exploited by Delahaye, and more the pity. Both technological advancements were briefly utilized from 1911 ro 1915, when Delahaye produced its twin-cam, V6 engined, Type 44. This innovative model was produced in miniscule numbers when it ceased production due to the first World war breaking out. The Type 44 was not popular, nor a financial success. It was dropped when the French government ordered Delahaye to convert its machine-tooling to the manufacture of Enfield 303 caliber rifles; and, parts for Hispano-Suiza V8 aircraft engines. Delahaye missed the boat when it abandonned the Tyoe 44. Today, the twin-cam V6 has long been the World's most prolific engine. Delahaye was decades ahead, but the managing director of operations, in his rather myopic view of the market, and its future potential, did not recognize or appreciate, the strategic significance of Delahaye's achievements, fathered by Amadee Varlet. Where Delahaye all but ignored its technical advancements, and did not profit from them, its competitors, and many that later followed in the future, certainly did. The year Delahaye discontinued its Type 44, Peugeot won the 1914 Indianapolis 500, with its dual-overhead-cam engine. Every current automobile manufacturer has a single or double overhead-cam V6 engine in its repertoire. Delahaye was the originator, but imaginative foresight was not one of managing director Weiffenbach's attributes. Amadee Varlet continued in his key role, until 1932, when Madame Desmarais caused major changes in the direction of Delahaye, and its automobiles. Instead of leaving, to go into earned and deserved retirement, he was promoted to a senior managerial position. At then seventy-six years of age, well past his creative and inventive prime, he was instructed to expand the humble one-man drafting area into the new Drawing Office; hire several drafting technicians to work cohesively under his supervision and management; then set up, equip, staff, and manage, the brand new Racing Department. Both departments were entities Delahaye never previously had. Clearly, Madame Desmarais' strategy was being implemented. Very different automobiles were about to emerge from Delahaye's doors. Weiffenbach, as ordered, sourced fresh design talent to replace Varlet at the senior engineer's drawing-board. He hired 42-year-old Jean François in 1932, as the company's chief design-engineer, and Varlet's assistant-manager for both new departments, which by then were operational. Varlet had been instructed by a chastized and chagrinned Charles Weiffenbach, who was under strict orders from majority shareholder, and board-of-directors chair, Madame Desmarais, widow of founding partner Leon Desmarais. Weiffenbach was given no choice but to adhere to her shareholder-backed demands. Madame Desmarais had been deservedly dismayed about Weiffenbach's excessively costly and imprudent product direction, and financial decisions, that had driven her company to the brink of survival. Weiffenbach's intention was to greatly increase production volume by creating a more modest interpretation of America's General Motors,thereby ostensibly enhancing profitability. On paper, it must have looked feasible; in reality, it was anything but. Weiffenbach orchestrated a challenging tripartite agreement in collaboration with entry-level Rosengart, that built a clone of the diminutive Austin Seven under license; and, a direct competitor, Chenard et Walcker, to manufacture their cars, along with a rationalized version of Delahaye's own, as well as its trucks and commercial vehicles in conjunction with Chenard & Walcker's UNIC truck division's. The product range was too diverse and disparate, to make practical sense. That was strange, since Charles Wieffenbach was respected as a conservative, prudently practical, pragmatist. Despite his best efforts, the endeavour was destined to fail from the outset, and, by 1931 it was dissolved. Delahaye's major investment, and the product redesign effort required to rationalize its own and the other two companies product-lines, combined with the retooling time and attenuating costs, plus the sacrificed loss of sales from having no products to market during the transformation, was an enormous judgement error. Charles Weiffenbach's misguided, overly ambitious, quasi mass-production strategy, destroyed his credibility in the shareholders' eyes. But until the mid nineteen-twenties, 'Monsieur Charles' could do no wrong. That changed, when Delahaye bit off more than it could hope to successfully chew in 1927. Then, when things were absolutely the toughest in Delahaye's history, the wreckage of America's Great Depression washed ashore in 1931. Amadee Varlet was distressed by the massive compromise he was directed to make in 1927, to discontinue the production of all of the lines he had dedicated himself to conceiving, designing, engineering, and producing for nearly thirty years, only to have the rug pulled out from under him, to be usurped by a failed attempt at product rationalization. He was stuck in the quagmire of compromise. He had to make the product changes, suspend all former automobile production, and revise the machine tooling, to do so, as well as coming up with new patterns for casting-molds for feemed inferior new products. He was disappointed, and contemplated retirement, but Madame Desmarais refused to let the company's highly respected engineer go. She promoted him as the manager of the new Drawing Office, and Racing Department, both of which she authorized Varlet to set up and supervise. He was relieved from his upsetting drawing-board duties, which suited him fine. Incoming engineer Jean Francois sat himself down in Amadee Varlet's vacated drawing-board chair, and Delahaye never looked back. In hindsight, it is astounding to business strategists, that the shareholders could ever have been convinced to follow Weiffenbach's erroneous strategy in 1926. But, as oft has been said "desperate times call for desperate measures". Delahaye was indeed encountering desperate times by then, and something bold urgently needed to be done. Charles Weiffenbach tried going in the only direction he thought would work, but he could not have been more wrong. It did not take long for Madame Desmarais to realize the error. She turned Delahaye's direction around, one hundred-and-eighty degrees, after everything Weiffenbach orchestrated, disintegtated in 1931. Her new direction soon resolved the disasterous matter, and very effectively. But the automobile industry is unpredictably chaotic. Hers was not destined to be a long-term solution. It worked admirably, but only until the second global conflict erupted in 1939. Delahaye had a brief five years of astounding success. It had never done so well previously, but, could not continue as well after the war. Times had changed Through Weiffenbach's illogical rationalization program, and Varlet's concernation, Delahaye's cars lost their distinctive Gallic personna, and aesthetic appeal,to become mundanely boring, unattractive, under-powered, median-market, family-oriented conveyances that nobody particularly wanted. The upsetting already soft sales numbers plummeted even further. Weiffenbach's perception of the Frech car market was out of focus. Buyers stayed away in droves. Instead of enhancing profits through volume production, Weiffenbach's scheme achieved the opposite. The fickle market is what determines the niche needing to be filled; not a corporate director. The arrangement had fallen apart by 1931, in the midst of the Great Depression. The timing of Delahaye's enormous financial commitment could not have been much worse. The tripartite was dissolved, and all parties went their separate ways, reverting to what they were building in 1926. All except Delahaye, that is. Delahaye was seriously floundering, having completely lost its way. It faced having no viable direction; no viable automobile lines; was desperately short of operating capital; and was hanging onto the edge of insolvency. Madame Desmarais' perceptive vision, and decisive direction reversal, altered Delahaye's fate for the better. After her orders were handed down and complied with, the indefatigible 'Monsieur Charles' soon redeemed himself. Delahaye's grievous past was left in the dust of the new Type 135 that emerged in 1935. Madame Desmarais' redirection generated entirely new, up-market, better performing, far more attractive, distinctly identifiable, totally new models, albeit in greatly reduced volume, and at considerably increased selling prices. Delahaye had gone boldly up-market. Gone forever was the company's reliance on a large volume of product-lines at median-market prices and marginal returns, intended to attract the working family-man. Instead, wealthy sportsmen and adventurous women were enticed by remarkably attractive, powerful and fast, superior handling, superb performing sportscars, and luxurious grand-touring cars. And they were reliably robust, competently engineered, dependable vehicles, with seemingly "bullet-proof" engines. Delahaye's Type 135SC sports-racing cars were winning everywhere they were entered, and the race-track grids featured Delahayes prominantly, in the first three rows of entries. The yrsr 1936 was a glorious time for Delahaye. But no company can thrive on flash-in-the-pan glory achieved in a single year. The gauntlet has flung upon the ground by the Teutonic might of Hitler's Nazi Germany, represented by Rudolph Ulenhaut's new V12 Mercedes-Benz, and Ferdinand Porsche's effort in putting Auto Union together from what was Audi, DKW, Horch, and Wanderer. The V12 engine came into dominance, and wealthy Lucy O'Reilly Schell decided that Delahaye needed to build her a team of five V12 racecars, so that she could do with Delahaye, what Enzo Ferrari had so successfully done with Alfa Romeo. Hers was a vision based on wishful thinking. It was her focus in 1936; it came into being by 1937; created a brief stir in 1938; and then became an enormously expensive error in judgement. In 1939, she washed her hands of Delahaye, and transferred her allegiance to Maserati. Delahaye had, thanks to Madame Demarais, in consort with Charles Weiffenbach, and the freedom both had given to Jean Francois, and financed by Lucy O'Reilly Schell, completely reversed Delahaye's future. The V12 program was perceived by the French populace, to have elevated Delahaye to the pinnacle. The shareholders intended to preserve that prestigeous perception at all costs. Between 1934 and 1939, the new products introduced by Jean Francois drastically enhanced Delahaye's image, and re-ignited its profitability. Madame Demarais and Jean Francois had belatedly launched Delahaye into joining the "Golden Age of the automobile". Delahaye had unexpectedly, and suddenly, become a French auto-market leader, although producing its exquisite cars in exceptionally low volume. It is estimated that only about five thousand cars were built in the company's six decades of production. The volume was so miniscule as to be all but inconsequential. Yet these are among the most exceptional motorcars the World had ever experienced. Some examples are considered by the cognescenti, to be among the most beautiful cars ever built. That is quit années accolade for such a small, obscure company to have achieved, but the credit for that perception belongs predominantly to the coachbuilders: Joseph Figoni, Jacques Saoutchik, Marcel Pourtout, Letourneur et Marchand, and Henri Chapron, whose styling and superb craftsmanship made it possible. Delahaye was all about style. The factory-workers respectfully referred to Charles Weiffenbach, their employer, as 'Monsieur Charles'. His instructions were what set Madame Desmarais' program in motion. But he did so more than grudgingly, because he was ordered to get Delahaye back into motorsports, something it had exited, at his instigation, a quarter of a century before, right after Emile Delahaye died in 1905. Now, against his wishes, Delahaye was to be seen competing in hillclimbs, sportscar rallies, and on races. Racing is expensive, and in Weiffenbach's view, a grossly irresponsible waste of time and resources. But like Bugatti's renowned success, racing results sells motorcars. Delahaye was about to re-enter the racing game. Upon his hiring, Jean Francous repurposed appropriate items he sourced from the company's production inventory, to initially come up with Delahaye's first, new, entry-level model: the Type 134. It was a redesigned amalgam of small truck components, with an upgraded overhead valve, four cylinder engine, of modest displacement. It was fronted, as it needed to be, with a completely new, classically shaped radiator shell and grille. It looked nothing like any model preceeding it. The Type 134 was new in every way, and is the model that commenced Delahaye's phoenix-like rise from the ashes.Suddenly snd unexpectedly, Delahaye re-emerged from the quagmire it had been bogged down in. In early 1934, the public perception of Delahaye was changed, very much for the better. The Type 134 reintroduced the classic V-shaped radiator-shell, in a freshly designed, attractive, vertical-bladed, distinctly original, heart-shaped, chrome surrounded grille. Delahaye was back, with a vengeance. The instantly popular Type 134 was qhickly followed by the eleven International speed-record setting Type 138, in 1935. This was an inline, overhead-valve, six-cylinder engined chassis. Then, less than a year later in 1936, came the low-slung "surbaisse" deservedly famous Type 135, in its various iterations. Coachbuilders were tripping over themselves to body the new Delahaye chassis. The Type 135SC's astounding competition successes were quickly followed the next year, by the V12 engined Types 145 and Type 155 in 1937; and the luxurious, and definitive, Type 165 in 1938. Then after invading and anexing Austria, Hitler invaded Poland, and France declared war. It was France's third military conflict with Germany in seventy years. The Type 135 made Delahaye a household name, and the company famous, but it was the esteemed Type 165 that elevated Delahaye's prestige onto the esteemed plateau occupied by Hispano-Suiza; Isotta Fraschini; Maybach, Rolls-Royce, Bentley, and Duesenberg. It was an outside investor, wealthy Irish-American-in-Paris heiress Lucy O'Reilly Schell, who instigated the V12 program, after causing the Type 135SC to be made in limited numbers. There were only sixteen Type 135SC cars built, and Lucy bought twelve of them. Only nine V12 cars were ever built, and Lucy bought five (four sports-racing Type 145s;and the one Type 155 grand prix monoposto). There were also four luxurious, grand-touring, open-bodied, Type 165s. Of these nine cars, six exist, including all four Type 145s; and two Type 165s. These were low-volume, limited production, motorized-chassis models, particularly the V12s. Delahaye's automobiles were bodied by competing, independent, outside coachbuilders, most located in the environs of Paris. However, coachbuilders in Belgium, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Holland, and England, bodied a few examples. The models created by Jean Francois elevated Delahaye to the peak of the French automobile industry, prior to the second World war. The aftermath was less glorious. Jean Francois did not live to see peace return to Paris. The legendary "Golden Age of the Automobile" came to an abrupt end with the outbreak of war in 1939. The glimmering flame valiantly attempted to be reignited afterwards, but Time had marched on. The World had been changed in every respect. Delahaye belonged to an ealier epoch, being unable to adapt and modernize. From its incorporation in 1898, Delahaye had always been a small, family-owned company. It lacked the financial strength, and facilities, to move forward into the vastly altered postwar circumstances. It did not help that France was itself in dire straits after the global conflict. Delahaye's lesser postwar glory can be partially attributed to the untimely death of fifty-four year old Jean Francois, from a terminally diagnosed chest disease, in April 1944. There were no more new chassis-types to almost miraculously spring aftesh from his abandonned drawing board. Delahaye was stagnating. But his demise was far from the sole cause. More to blame was the distressed socio-economic situation in France, exacerbated by a devestating luxury-tax imposed on cars of over two-litres displacement. Delahaye manufactured nothing that diminutive, so the punitive tax, and never-ending currency devaluations, drove potential prospects away in droves. The post 1934 models created by Jean Francois were what forever set Delahaye's star in the firmament, and continue to earn its surviving iconic cars their earned and deserved respect into perpetuity.

Lecrae Devaughn Moore (born October 9, 1979), mononymously known as Lecrae, is an American Christian hip hop recording artist, songwriter, music executive, actor, and entrepreneur. He is the president, co-owner and co-founder of the independent record label Reach Records, was the co-founder and president of the now-defunct non-profit organization ReachLife Ministries, is an investor and co-owner of the audio production software MXD, and is a co-founder of the film production studio 3 Strand Films. To date, he has released ten studio albums and three mixtapes as a solo artist, and has released three studio albums, a remix album, one EP, and numerous singles as the leader of the hip hop group 116 Clique. He produced much of his earlier material along with other early Reach Records releases. Lecrae, in reference to his label as a Christian rapper, has stated that his music is just hip hop, though it reflects his Christian faith. In May 2016, Lecrae signed to Columbia Records in a joint deal between his label and Columbia. He left Columbia in May 2020. Lecrae's debut recording, Real Talk, was released in 2004 through Reach Records. His third solo album, Rebel, released in 2008, became the first Christian hip hop album to reach No. 1 on the Billboard Gospel chart. Rehab followed in 2010, and Lecrae began attracting mainstream attention when he performed at the 2011 BET Hip Hop Awards Cypher and appeared on the Statik Selektah song "Live & Let Live" from Population Control. On May 10, 2012, Lecrae released his first mixtape, Church Clothes, which was hosted by Don Cannon. Considered his breakthrough into mainstream hip hop, the mixtape was downloaded over 100,000 times in less than 48 hours. His sixth studio album, Gravity, came out on September 4, 2012, and has been called the most important album in Christian hip hop history by Rapzilla and Atlanta Daily World. The album debuted as the best-selling album overall in the iTunes Store, No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and won the Grammy Award for Best Gospel Album at the 2013 Grammy Awards, marking the first time that a hip hop artist received this award. Lecrae released his seventh album, Anomaly, on September 9, 2014.

Michael Andrew Gove (; born Graeme Andrew Logan; 26 August 1967) is a British politician and writer serving as Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster since 2019 and Minister for the Cabinet Office since 2020. He has been Member of Parliament (MP) for Surrey Heath since 2005. A member of the Conservative Party, he served as Education Secretary from 2010 to 2014, Chief Whip from 2014 to 2015, Justice Secretary from 2015 to 2016 and Environment Secretary from 2017 to 2019. He has twice run to become Leader of the Conservative Party, in 2016 and 2019, finishing in third place on both occasions. Born in Aberdeen, Gove was in care until being adopted aged four months old, after which he was raised in the Kittybrewster area of the city. He attended the independent Robert Gordon's College and studied English at Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford. He then began a career as a journalist at The Press and Journal before having a long tenure as a leader writer at The Times. Elected for Surrey Heath at the 2005 general election, he was appointed to the Shadow Cabinet by David Cameron in 2007 as Shadow Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families. Appointed Secretary of State for Education in the Cameron–Clegg coalition, Gove terminated the previous Labour government's Building Schools for the Future programme, reformed A-Level and GCSE qualifications in favour of final examinations and responded to the Trojan Horse scandal. The National Association of Head Teachers, the Association of Teachers and Lecturers, the National Union of Teachers and the NASUWT passed motions of no confidence in his policies at their conferences in 2013. In the 2014 cabinet reshuffle, he was moved to the post of Chief Whip. Following the 2015 general election and the formation of the majority Cameron government, Gove was promoted to Justice Secretary and Lord Chancellor. As the co-convenor of Vote Leave, Gove was seen, along with fellow Conservative MP Boris Johnson, as one of the most prominent figures of the 2016 referendum on EU membership. He was campaign manager for Johnson in the 2016 Conservative Party leadership election but withdrew his support on the morning Johnson was due to declare and announced his own candidacy, finishing third behind Theresa May and Andrea Leadsom. Following Theresa May's appointment as Prime Minister, Gove was sacked from the Cabinet but was appointed to the second May government as Environment Secretary following the 2017 general election. He launched a second Conservative leadership bid in 2019 although eventually came third behind Johnson and Jeremy Hunt. Upon the appointment of Johnson as Prime Minister, Gove was appointed Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, with responsibilities including preparations for a no-deal Brexit. He took on the additional role of Minister for the Cabinet Office in the cabinet reshuffle post-Brexit.

Vitamin E is a group of eight fat soluble compounds that include four tocopherols and four tocotrienols. Vitamin E deficiency, which is rare and usually due to an underlying problem with digesting dietary fat rather than from a diet low in vitamin E, can cause nerve problems. Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant protecting cell membranes from reactive oxygen species. Worldwide, government organizations recommend adults consume in the range of 7 to 15 mg per day. As of 2016, consumption was below recommendations according to a worldwide summary of more than one hundred studies that reported a median dietary intake of 6.2 mg per day for alpha-tocopherol. Research with alpha-tocopherol as a dietary supplement, with daily amounts as high as 2000 mg per day, has had mixed results. Population studies suggested that people who consumed foods with more vitamin E, or who chose on their own to consume a vitamin E dietary supplement, had lower incidence of cardiovascular diseases, cancer, dementia, and other diseases, but placebo-controlled clinical trials could not always replicate these findings. As of 2017, vitamin E continues to be a topic of active clinical research. There is no clinical evidence that use of vitamin E skincare products are effective. Both natural and synthetic tocopherols are subject to oxidation, and so in dietary supplements are esterified, creating tocopheryl acetate for stability purposes. Both the tocopherols and tocotrienols occur in α (alpha), β (beta), γ (gamma) and δ (delta) forms, as determined by the number and position of methyl groups on the chromanol ring. All eight of these vitamers feature a chromane double ring, with a hydroxyl group that can donate a hydrogen atom to reduce free radicals, and a hydrophobic side chain which allows for penetration into biological membranes. Of the many different forms of vitamin E, gamma-tocopherol (γ-tocopherol) is the most common form found in the North American diet, but alpha-tocopherol (α-tocopherol) is the most biologically active. Palm oil is a source of tocotrienols. Vitamin E was discovered in 1922, isolated in 1935 and first synthesized in 1938. Because the vitamin activity was first identified as essential for fertilized eggs to result in live births (in rats), it was given the name "tocopherol" from Greek words meaning birth and to bear or carry. Alpha-tocopherol, either naturally extracted from plant oils or, most commonly, as the synthetic tocopheryl acetate, is sold as a popular dietary supplement, either by itself or incorporated into a multivitamin product, and in oils or lotions for use on skin.

Noel Thomas David Gallagher (born 29 May 1967) is an English singer, songwriter, record producer and musician. He served as the songwriter, lead guitarist, and co-lead vocalist of the rock band Oasis. After leaving Oasis in 2009, he formed and became the lead vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter for Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds. Gallagher began playing guitar at the age of 12, and became a roadie and technician for Inspiral Carpets at the age of 21. He learned that his brother Liam had formed a band called The Rain, which eventually became Oasis, and Liam invited him to join them as the lead guitarist. He agreed on condition that he would write their material. The band's debut album, Definitely Maybe (1994), was a critical and commercial success. Their second album, (What's the Story) Morning Glory? (1995), reached the top of the album charts in many countries, and their third studio album, Be Here Now (1997), became the fastest-selling album in UK chart history. Britpop eventually declined in popularity and Oasis failed to revive it, though their final two albums, Don't Believe the Truth (2005) and Dig Out Your Soul (2008), were hailed as their best efforts in over a decade. In August 2009, following an altercation with Liam, Noel announced his departure from Oasis. Gallagher would go on to form Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, with whom he has released three studio albums. Oasis' time was marked by turbulence, especially during the peak of Britpop, during which Noel was involved in several disputes with Liam and their fights and wild lifestyles regularly made tabloid headlines. The band notably had a rivalry with fellow Britpop band Blur. Noel himself was often regarded as the spearhead of the Britpop movement. Many have praised his songwriting, with Beatles producer George Martin calling him "the finest songwriter of his generation". Conversely, he was voted the most overrated guitarist of the last millennium in a 1999 poll, and the ninth most overrated ever in a 2002 listener survey. He cited the former as the award he most enjoyed receiving.

As the Reform Party candidate, Perot won 8.4 percent of the popular vote in the 1996 presidential election. Although he did not receive a single electoral vote, no other third-party or independent candidate has since managed to receive as high a share of the vote.

The Treaty of Sèvres (French: Traité de Sèvres) was a 1920 treaty signed between the Allies of World War I and the Ottoman Empire. The treaty ceded large parts of Ottoman territory to France, the United Kingdom, Greece, and Italy, as well as creating large occupation zones within the Ottoman Empire. It was one of a series of treaties that the Central Powers signed with the Allied Powers after their defeat in World War I. Hostilities had already ended with the Armistice of Mudros. The treaty was signed on 10 August 1920 in an exhibition room at the Manufacture nationale de Sèvres porcelain factory in Sèvres, France. The Treaty of Sèvres marked the beginning of the partitioning of the Ottoman Empire and the dismemberment of the empire. The treaty's stipulations included the renunciation of most territory not inhabited by Turkish people and their cession to the Allied administration. The ceding of Eastern Mediterranean lands saw the introduction of novel polities, including the British Mandate for Palestine and the French Mandate for Syria and the Lebanon. The terms stirred hostility and Turkish nationalism. The treaty's signatories were stripped of their citizenship by the Grand National Assembly, led by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, which ignited the Turkish War of Independence. Atatürk led the Turkish nationalists in the war to defeat the combined armies of the signatories of the Treaty of Sèvres. The 1923 Treaty of Lausanne, which superseded the Treaty of Sèvres, ended the conflict and saw the establishment of the Republic of Turkey.

It is widely regarded as the finest work in classical Arabic literature. It is organized in 114 chapters (surah (سور‎; singular: سورة‎, sūrah)), which consist of verses (āyāt (آيات‎; singular: آية‎, āyah)). Muslims believe that the Quran was orally revealed by God to the final prophet, Muhammad, through the archangel Gabriel (Jibril), incrementally over a period of some 23 years, beginning in the month of Ramadan, when Muhammad was 40; and concluding in 632, the year of his death. Muslims regard the Quran as Muhammad's most important miracle; a proof of his prophethood; and the culmination of a series of divine messages starting with those revealed to Adam, including the Tawrah (Torah), the Zabur ("Psalms") and the Injil ("Gospel"). The word Quran occurs some 70 times in the text itself, and other names and words are also said to refer to the Quran. The Quran is thought by Muslims to be not simply divinely inspired, but the literal word of God. Muhammad did not write it as he did not know how to write. According to tradition, several of Muhammad's companions served as scribes, recording the revelations. Shortly after the prophet's death, the Quran was compiled by the companions, who had written down or memorized parts of it. Caliph Uthman established a standard version, now known as the Uthmanic codex, which is generally considered the archetype of the Quran known today. There are, however, variant readings, with mostly minor differences in meaning. The Quran assumes familiarity with major narratives recounted in the Biblical and apocryphal scriptures. It summarizes some, dwells at length on others and, in some cases, presents alternative accounts and interpretations of events. The Quran describes itself as a book of guidance for mankind (2:185). It sometimes offers detailed accounts of specific historical events, and it often emphasizes the moral significance of an event over its narrative sequence. Supplementing the Quran with explanations for some cryptic Quranic narratives, and rulings that also provide the basis for sharia (Islamic law) in most denominations of Islam, are hadiths—oral and written traditions believed to describe words and actions of Muhammad. During prayers, the Quran is recited only in Arabic. Someone who has memorized the entire Quran is called a hafiz ('memorizer'). An ayah (Quranic verse) is sometimes recited with a special kind of elocution reserved for this purpose, called tajwid. During the month of Ramadan, Muslims typically complete the recitation of the whole Quran during tarawih prayers. In order to extrapolate the meaning of a particular Quranic verse, Muslims rely on exegesis, or commentary (tafsir), rather than a direct translation of the text.

Go is an abstract strategy board game for two players in which the aim is to surround more territory than the opponent. The game was invented in China more than 2,500 years ago and is believed to be the oldest board game continuously played to the present day. A 2016 survey by the International Go Federation's 75 member nations found that there are over 46 million people worldwide who know how to play Go and over 20 million current players, the majority of whom live in East Asia. The playing pieces are called stones. One player uses the white stones and the other, black. The players take turns placing the stones on the vacant intersections (points) of a . Once placed on the board, stones may not be moved, but stones are removed from the board if the stone (or group of stones) is surrounded by opposing stones on all orthogonally-adjacent points, in which case the stone is captured. The game proceeds until neither player wishes to make another move. When a game concludes, the winner is determined by counting each player's surrounded territory along with captured stones and komi (points added to the score of the player with the white stones as compensation for playing second). Games may also be terminated by resignation. The standard Go board has a 19×19 grid of lines, containing 361 points. Beginners often play on smaller 9×9 and 13×13 boards, and archaeological evidence shows that the game was played in earlier centuries on a board with a 17×17 grid. However, boards with a 19×19 grid had become standard by the time the game reached Korea in the 5th century CE and Japan in the 7th century CE. Go was considered one of the four essential arts of the cultured aristocratic Chinese scholars in antiquity. The earliest written reference to the game is generally recognized as the historical annal Zuo Zhuan (c. 4th century BCE). Despite its relatively , Go is extremely complex. Compared to chess, Go has both a larger board with more scope for play and longer games and, on average, many more alternatives to consider per move. The number of legal board positions in Go has been calculated to be approximately 2.1 × 10170, which is vastly greater than the number of atoms in the known, observable universe, estimated to be about 1 × 1080.

Apollinaire de Kontski (23 October 1825 – 29 June 1879) was a Polish violinist, teacher, and composer. He was born in Warsaw (some sources say Kraków) as Apolinary Kątski, the youngest of five musical siblings who all used the name de Kontski professionally, and the only one who was not a pianist. Their father tried to have them all recognised as "wunderkinder". He studied with his elder brother Charles de Kontski and appeared in public at the age of four, playing a concerto by Pierre Rode. He appeared in St Petersburg, France, Germany and England, making an extraordinary impression. He was praised by the likes of Hector Berlioz and Giacomo Meyerbeer. De Kontski was befriended by Niccolò Paganini in Paris, had some lessons with him, and it was said that he was even bequeathed Paganini's violins and manuscripts. This last claim appears to be without foundation, however, Paganini did give him a signed testimonial, which was published in the Musical World of 21 June 1838: Having heard M. de Kontski, aged eleven years, perform several pieces of music on the violin, and having found him worthy of being ranked among the most celebrated artists of the present day, permit me to say, that if he continues his studies in this fine art, he will, in course of time, surpass the most distinguished performers of the age.(Signed) PAGANINI." Apollinaire de Kontski had a flair for showmanship like his brother Anton de Kontski (1817-1899) - and several other virtuosos among his contemporaries. At one concert in France in 1850, he combined pizzicato and arco in the same piece, then removed all but one string of his violin to play an aria from Meyerbeer's Robert le diable... He also wrote some pieces for violin with only one string, and with five strings (which he called "pentakords"). He also concertised with Theodor Leschetizky, Anton Rubinstein and Alexander Dargomyzhsky. He founded a string quartet, with which ensemble his pianist daughter Wanda played throughout Poland and Russia. In 1853 he was appointed violinist to the Tsar of Russia. In 1861 he became the inaugural Director of the revived Institute of Music. On one occasion he introduced the violinist Leopold Auer to Ignacy Jan Paderewski. The then unknown young pianist was chosen to accompany Auer at a recital at the Institute. His students included Stanisław Barcewicz, Zygmunt Noskowski, and Konstanty Gorski. In 1878 he performed at the Paris International Exhibition along with Henryk Wieniawski. Apollinaire de Kontski composed a violin concerto, a quartet for four violins, 24 Études-Caprices for violin and flute, transcriptions, variations, opera fantaisies (his "Fantasia on Motives from Lucia di Lammermoor" was famous in his day) and numerous other virtuoso pieces, all now forgotten. He died in his home city in 1879, aged 53.

"See You Again" is a song by American rapper Wiz Khalifa, featuring American singer Charlie Puth. It was commissioned for the soundtrack of the 2015 film Furious 7 as a tribute to actor Paul Walker, who died in a single-vehicle accident on November 30, 2013. Later on, the song was included as a bonus track on the international release of Puth's debut album, Nine Track Mind. The artists co-wrote the song with its co-producers, DJ Frank E and Andrew Cedar, with additional production from Puth and mixing provided by Manny Marroquin. "See You Again" was released on March 10, 2015, as the soundtrack's lead single in the United States. "See You Again" became both Khalifa's and Puth's biggest single to date. It spent 12 non-consecutive weeks atop the US Billboard Hot 100, tying Eminem's "Lose Yourself" for the second longest-running rap number-one single in the country behind Lil Nas X & Billy Ray Cyrus' "Old Town Road", and topped the UK Singles Chart for two consecutive weeks. It also reached number one in several other countries including Australia, Austria, Canada, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand and Switzerland. The song held the record for the most-streamed track in a single day on Spotify in the United States, until it was surpassed by One Direction's "Drag Me Down". It set the record for most streams in a single week worldwide, and in the United Kingdom also in a single week. The music video was the most viewed video on YouTube from July 10 to August 4, 2017. "See You Again" received three nominations at the 58th Annual Grammy Awards: Song of the Year, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance and Best Song Written for Visual Media. It was also shortlisted for the Song of the Year for the BBC Music Awards and was nominated for Best Original Song at the 73rd Golden Globe Awards. "See You Again" was the best selling-song of 2015 worldwide, with combined sales and track-equivalent streams of 20.9 million units according to IFPI.

Go is an abstract strategy board game for two players in which the aim is to surround more territory than the opponent. The game was invented in China more than 2,500 years ago and is believed to be the oldest board game continuously played to the present day. A 2016 survey by the International Go Federation's 75 member nations found that there are over 46 million people worldwide who know how to play Go and over 20 million current players, the majority of whom live in East Asia.

City of Westminster is an inner London city and borough. It is the site of the United Kingdom's Houses of Parliament and much of the British government. Historically in Middlesex, it is immediately to the west of the older City of London. The city and borough's southern boundary is the Thames. It occupies a large area of central Greater London, including most of the West End. To its west is the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, and to its north is Holborn in the London Borough of Camden. Many sites commonly associated with London are in the borough, including Buckingham Palace, the Palace of Westminster (Houses of Parliament), Westminster Abbey, Whitehall, 10 Downing Street, and Trafalgar Square. The borough is divided into a number of localities including the ancient political district of Westminster; the shopping areas around Oxford Street, Regent Street, Piccadilly and Bond Street; and the night-time entertainment district of Soho. Much of the borough is residential, and in 2008 it was estimated to have a population of 236,000. Aside from numerous large parks and open spaces, including Hyde Park and most of Regent's Park, the population density of the district is high. The London Westminster borough was created with the 1965 establishment of Greater London. Upon the creation, it inherited the city status previously held by the then Metropolitan Borough of Westminster from 1900, which was first awarded to Westminster in 1540. The local government body is Westminster City Council.
