 Mike Bossy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bossy was also known for being able to score goals in remarkable fashion, the most incredible, perhaps, in the 1982 Stanley Cup finals when, up-ended by a check and several feet in the air, parallel to the ice, Bossy nonetheless managed to hook the puck with his stick and score.
Bossy scored a then record 53 goals as a rookie, won the Calder Trophy for rookie of the year, and was named a Second Team All-Star.
Bossy was noted for his clean play, almost never resorted to fighting, and won the Lady Byng Trophy for gentlemanly play three times: 1983, 1984, and 1986.

 Czinder Gabriella:
Godelier számára nem kétséges, hogy a szent dolgok valósítják meg a képzelt és a reális szintézisét, melyek az ember társadalmi létezését alkotják.
A közösségben fellelhetõ tárgyak három kategóriáját különbözteti meg Godelier: egyrészt léteznek ezek a féltve õrzött, elidegeníthetetlen szent tárgyak, másrészt találkozhatunk olyan “értéktárgyakkal” (objets précieux), amelyek ajándékként is szolgálnak, használatra is átadhatók, mégis elidegeníthetetlen jellegûek, azaz a tulajdonosi jog nem változik, és végül a harmadik csoportot az értékmérõként, egyfajta pénzként funkcionáló dolgok alkotják.
A társadalomtudományok feladatát Godelier éppen ezért abban látja, hogy ezt felismerve és ebbõl kiindulva próbálják meg a társadalmak különbözõségét, a különféle kultúrák jellegzetességeit feltárni és megmagyarázni.

 Maurice Ravel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ravel was fond of chords of the ninth and eleventh, and the acidity of his harmonies is largely the result of a fondness for unresolved appoggiaturas (listen to the Valses Nobles et Sentimentales).
Ravel's piano compositions, such as Miroirs and Gaspard de la Nuit are virtuosic, and his orchestrations, such as in Daphnis et Chloé and his orchestral arrangement of Modest Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition, are notable for the effective use of tonal color and variety of sound and instrumentation.
