For the first time in history, the Paris 2024 Olympics saw an equal number of men and women competing. But that's not always been the case - in fact, back in 1912, the father of the Olympic games Pierre de Coubertin said that having women compete in the games would be 'impractical, uninteresting, ungainly and, I do not hesitate to add, improper'. Luckily, the Olympics didn't just have the father of the games – it also had the MOTHER of games, Alice Milliat. BBC Mundo's Laura Garcia tells us all about this sometimes forgotten figure behind the Olympics.One of the most influential women in the tech industry has died.

Janis Joplin's star burned briefly, but brightly. For only about three years was her name prominent among pop musicians of the late 1960s. She made a single — "Me and Bobby McGee" — that reached No. 1 on the Billboard chart, and two albums that reached into the top five. She died of an accidental drug overdose at age 27. But her powerful, gutsy vocals and performance style continue to be distinctive among the singers of her era. Now her enduring appeal is recognized with a Broadway show at the Lyceum Theatre. Written and directed by Randy Johnson, A Night with Janis Joplin brings you the songs that helped her become famous and some of the great performers who influenced her style. New York Times theater critic Charles Isherwood tells us about the show, about some of the characters who appear in the story and about Mary Bridget Davies, who plays and sings the title role.

Black-Eyed News: Janis Joplin is coming to Broadway! A musical based on the life of the late singer will begin previews this fall at the Lyceum Theater in New York City. Titled An Evening With Janis Joplin, the musical has been touring the country since it debuted in Portland in 2011. Mary Bridget Davies, who played Janis in the touring musical, will reprise the role for the Great White Way. The life story of the late, great George Jones is coming to the big screen. An as-of-yet-untitled biopic of the country music legend is currently in the beginning stages of production with a target release date in the next two years. The film had been licensed by Jones himself in 2011; according to his wife Nancy, Jones had hoped to see the film before his death in April of this year. Of the script, which was penned by Dennis Baxter, Nancy Jones said that her husband’s story “would be told the way [George] wanted it told.” e-more@elmoremagazine.com The ezine that I read weekly has their 2013 Best of nominees list out and the voting begins on July 15th. http://www.thebluesblast.com/2013bbmanominees.htm Also Ctnow.com has their Best of Music Awards nominees out as well get out and vote.
