Tom Longboat: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know | Heavy.com - Duration: 11:07.
Tom Longboat: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know | Heavy.com
Tom Longboat, a Canadian long-distance runner known as "one of the greatest marathoners of all time," is the subject of a Google Doodle honoring what would have been his 131st birthday.
Longboat is considered one of the greatest Canadian athletes of all time, and the Google Doodle also took special note of his military background, as he turned his running talents into an asset for the Canadians during World War I.
"Tom Longboat's legacy lives on as one of Canada's greatest athletes," Google wrote.
"Not only is today his birthday, it is officially 'Tom Longboat Day' in Ontario!" The Google Doodle was designed to show Longboat transitioning "seamlessly between marathon runner and military man, just as he did during World War I!".
Here's what you need to know:.
Tom Longboat Was a Member of the Onondaga Nation.
According to Google, Longboat was a member of the Onondaga Nation, who was born in 1887 on the Six Nations Reserve, which is located south of Brantford, Ontario.
"He first began racing in his early teenage years, inspired by Bill Davis, another First Nations runner who finished second in the Boston Marathon in 1901," reported Google.
Longboat's native name, Cogwagee, meant Everything, according to CBC, which reported that, when he was in his teens, Longboat "ran away from the Mohawk Institute Residential School (twice) and eventually lived with his uncle and did odd jobs.
" However, skill and persistence propelled him from humble beginnings to running celebrity.
"Longboat captured every Canadian record from the mile to the marathon at some point in his career, but endured prejudice and racism throughout his life," Running Magazine reported.
He belonged to the Wolf Clan and practiced the Long House religion.
He also suffered racial taunts throughout his life and was called names in the newspapers, despite running for millions.
Longboat Was the First Member of the First Nations to Win the Boston Marathon.
In addition to being a Canadian great, Longboat is a hero to indigenous peoples because of his historic firsts.
"It didn't take long for Longboat to chase Davis' legacy," according to Google.
"He began racing in 1905 as an amateur and won his first Boston Marathon just two years later, in 1907, making Longboat the first member of the First Nations to win the Boston Marathon.".
According to Running Magazine, Longboat was only 19 when he won the Boston Marathon by "setting a new course record by more than five minutes.
Longboat's family still honors his legacy by running in marathons.
"Will Winnie, great-grandson of the legendary indigenous Canadian runner Tom Longboat, travelled from his home in the Buffalo, NY area to run the Mississauga Marathon on Sunday," Running Magazine reported in May 2018.
If you ran @mississaugamarathon today, we bet you didnt realize you were running alongside a family member of Tom Longboat! We are thrilled that Will Winnie, Toms great grandson made the journey from New York to race with us today.
He got a PB, BTW.

"If you ran @mississaugamarathon today, we bet you didn't realize you were running alongside a family member of Tom Longboat! We are thrilled that Will Winnie, Tom's great grandson made the journey from New York to race with us today.
He got a PB, BTW.
Go Will Go!" a post on Instagram read.
Longboat Only Lost Three Races During His Career.
During his time, Tom Longboat was almost unbeatable.
Just how tough of a competitor was he? "[Longboat] was a brilliant athlete," Dr.
Bruce Kidd, Longboat's biographer, told CBC.
"He could run from the front and win.
He could run from behind and win.
He beat everybody of his generation … he set record after record after record.".
Google reports that "during his career as an amateur racer, Longboat only lost a total of three races.
" He won the Boston Marathon by running in a snowstorm, CBC reports, returning to the honor of a parade by torchlight.
Canada's History reports that Longboat ran away from an Anglican residential school while growing up and labored in farm fields.
It was said that his running acumen stemmed from "chasing cows in the fields and that he once ran sixty-five kilometres from Hamilton to Brantford, arriving home before his mother," who made the journey by wagon.
Longboat Was a Veteran of WWI Who Used His Running Skills to Deliver Messages.
Google honored Longboat for his military heroism, not just his running ability.
Veterans.gc.ca concurred, calling Tom Longboat "an example of the selfless response of Canadians to the chaos spreading throughout Europe.".
Indeed, the site notes, Longboat was already a star due to his racing abilities, earning thousands, when he decided to enlist.
He put his running talents to the cause.
"Though the rewards were substantially less, he did not quit racing.
As a dispatch carrier with the 107th Pioneer Battalion in France, Longboat ran messages and orders between units," the site reported.
"During his professional racing career, Longboat also served in the Canadian Army as a dispatch runner in World War I," reported Google.
"He largely ran across France, delivering messages between military posts.
This was dangerous work, and he was actually mistakenly declared dead twice during his service! Once he finished his service for the military, he retired to the Six Nations Reserve in Ontario, where he lived for the remainder of his life.".
According to Canada's History, there is a legendary story about Longboat's service.
"The story is told that somewhere in France during the Great War, a British general, being led to the front by a dispatch runner, grew irritated with the pace set by the man and ordered him to slow down.".
Supposedly, the general said, "For God's sakes, who do you think I am? Tom Longboat?" Longboat responded, "No sir.
That's me.".
Longboat Switched to Professional Racing.
Longboat didn't stay an amateur for long.
According to Google, he soon turned professional.
"Two years after winning the Boston Marathon, he went on to become a professional racer," reported Google.
"Longboat was one of the first athletes to use a training technique involving rotating training days of hard workouts, easier workouts and recovery days.
While these training methods are widely accepted today, he faced skepticism from coaches and media despite consistent victories and multiple world records.".
Tom Longboat died in 1949 "at the age of 62.
He is a member of the Canadian Sports Hall of Fame and the Indian Hall of Fame," according to Veterans.gc.ca.

New Nail Art Designs 2018 - Best Nail Art Trends for Women 2018 - Duration: 10:05.
Nail designs or nail art or Nail Polish is a very simple concept - designs or art that
is used to decorate the finger or Nail Polish or toe nails.
They are used predominately to enhance an outfit or brighten an everyday
look.
Seen nowadays as more a fashion activity and something that allows for creativity and expression
of one's own style, the nail designs or Nail
Polish and art are considered to be a significant area of fashion and beauty.
Different nail designs and nail art can be found on the latest catwalks of the best designers,
Hollywood stars and celebrities will often showcase the hottest new nail trends on the
red carpets, and of course anyone from their own home can
create nail art or Nail Polish to match their mood, outfit or artistic personality.
History originally saw nail art or Nail Polish as being a show of social class, and the more
extravagant the higher class you were considered.
These days it is available to everyone and has exploded in
popularity, so much so that a documentary NAILgasm, was released to explore the growing
trend of nail art from subculture to high fashion.
In January 2014, Nailpolis: Museum of Nail Art was founded
for nail artists and hobbyists to share their designs.
Membership on NailpolisMuseum is limited to invitation only to "maintain quality content.
How To Do Nail Art?
If you want your nails to look their best, copy your favourite star's nails, or just
have a great design idea for them, then there are a few ways to
go about achieving the desired look.
Salons:
The easiest but probably most expensive option is to visit a nail salon or nail bar.
With the increase in nail designs and nail art popularity
nail salons/bars have become common-place in many towns and high streets.
They will have nail technicians that should be capable of creating any designs you wish.
Kits:
Nail art kits are useful for beginners as they give you everything you need to get started.
They will usually contain the top and base coats,
polish and colours, special brushes or dotting tools, different patterns, stickers and pins
for the designs, and possibly sometimes stones, jewels or glitter depending on the kit.
You may even want to get a kit with nail art pens that allow for you to draw directly onto
the nail, getting a totally unique design of your own.
If you're thinking about getting into nail designs, a nail art kit might be the ideal
starting point.
You can buy nail art kits from some of the biggest retailers.
Nail designs or nail art Tutorials:
If you want to avoid the cost of nail salons or are just feeling brave there is a massive
amount of tutorials and guides for all sorts of nail
designs or Nail Polish on the internet.
You can easily do a quick Google and YouTube search for a whole host of other resources.
What You Need
In order to get the desired designs or art and you aren't going to a nail salon, you'll
need the best tools and supplies.
One of the most basic tools for any budding nail artist are brushes.
A set of brushes can be picked up from most places like Amazon for very cheap.
Nail files are also important and you will likely need more than
one.
Your design ideas and what techniques they will require plays a large part in the tools
you might find yourself needing.
Nail stamps and dotting tools may be necessary to create specific designs.
These are just a few of a wide range of tools available for nail designs and art.
Depending on the type of design or pattern you are trying to achieve
you will require specific tools that will enable you to create those specific designs.
Nail Designs
Once you've decided to create your own nail art or Nail Polish , and you've got all the
tools you need to do so, you'll need to decide on a design or Nail Polish .
The range of options available to you is huge and with time you'll
become more familiar with different accessories that can be used
to improve or enhance your nail designs.

Monica Lewinsky Now: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know | Heavy.com - Duration: 10:28.
Monica Lewinsky Now: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know | Heavy.com
Where is Monica Lewinsky now? The former White House intern, whose relationship with Bill Clinton caused an uproar during his presidency, is today an activist who works to stop cyber bullying, is a public speaker, and has been a contributing writer to Vanity Fair Magazine.
Monica Lewinsky is in her 40s.
Does she have a husband? No, she's never married, and, in some ways, the scandal that engulfed her early 20s has never gone away for her (Clinton said on the Today Show on June 4, 2018 that he doesn't plan to offer her a direct apology).
However, Lewinsky has slowly regained her voice and a new identity in the public eye, largely for speaking out against Internet abuse.
Lewinsky was only 22-years-old, when, as a White House intern, she had a relationship with the president.
Monica Lewinsky attends the gala screening of 'Despite The Falling Snow' on March 23, 2016 in London, United Kingdom.
The details of the scandal are now elements of American presidential history: The blue dress with the president's DNA on it, the taped conversations with her supposed friend Linda Tripp, the president's impeachment, the lengthy and graphic report from independent prosecutor Ken Starr, and Bill Clinton's line, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman.
" He eventually admitted the contact with her.
"If I have learned anything since then, it is that you cannot run away from who you are or from how you've been shaped by your experiences.
Instead, you must integrate your past and present," Lewinsky wrote in a March 2018 essay in Vanity Fair.
Here's what you need to know:.
Lewinsky Says the Shame 'Sticks to You Like Tar' & Bill Clinton Says He Doesn't Owe Her a Personal Apology.
Since the scandal, Lewinsky has had several different careers – handbag designer, weight loss pitchwoman – before she virtually disappeared from the public stage for about a decade while she attended grad school.
In the last several years, though, Lewinsky has cautiously and slowly reemerged into the public spotlight.
She has stayed out of political commentary, though, and she never revealed her vote for president in the 2016 presidential election, for example.
She has been thrust back into the news in association with Bill Clinton as the former president's past issues have renewed currency because of the #metoo movement.
Sen.
Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, a Democrat, now says she thinks Bill Clinton should have resigned because of the Lewinsky matter (Bill Clinton was also accused of unwanted sexual contact and sexual harassment by other women, including Juanita Broaddrick, who accused him of sexual assault.) However, when asked whether he planned to apologize to Lewinsky herself, Bill Clinton said no and added that he believes he did the right thing by not resigning (he was impeached).
"I do not. I have never talked to her.
But I did say, publicly, on more than one occasion, that I was sorry," he said on The Today Show.
"That's very different.
The apology was public." It was rare for Clinton to mention Lewinsky after all of this time.
She had not responded on her Twitter page, which she uses to advance her cyber bullying causes.
On Twitter, Lewinsky has called herself, "social activist.
public speaker. vanity fair contributor.
ambassador @bystanderrev + @antibullyingpro.
knitter of things without sleeves #clickwithcompassion." Most recently, her profile reads, "human/anti-bullying activist/speaker/@vanityfair contributor/@tedtalks giver/@resiliencefnd board member/rap song muse/former beret model.
#clickwithcompassion.".
Lewinsky still avoids giving many interviews, although she granted a rare interview with The Guardian, which called her "a respected and perceptive anti-bullying advocate.
She gives talks at Facebook, and at business conferences, on how to make the internet more compassionate.
She helps out at anti-bullying organisations like Bystander Revolution." She told The Guardian, "The shame sticks to you like tar.".
According to The Today Show, "Lewinsky is teaming up with Vodafone to create anti-bullying emojis and GIFs.
" The New York Times says she has appeared at New York benefits, participated in an anti-bullying workshop, and "joined a feminist networking group.
Lewinsky has addressed the ramifications that the fallout over the Clinton relationship cost her.
She also appeared at a Forbes conference and spoke about online bullying, saying, "I lost my reputation… And I lost my sense of self." Lewinsky told Vanity Fair that she was moved to become an anti-bullying activist by her mother's tearful reaction to the suicide of Tyler Clementi, a Rutgers freshman who jumped off a bridge after being "secretly streamed via Webcam kissing another man.".
Monica Lewinsky Was Upset She was Uninvited From a Public Event When Bill Clinton Received an Invite.
Lewinsky was once invited to speak at a philanthropic summit put on by Town and Country Magazine.
However, when Bill Clinton ended up on the agenda, her own invite was pulled.
The magazine later apologized, writing on Twitter, "We apologize to Ms.
Lewinsky and regret the way the situation was handled.".
Lewinsky exposed the 2018 snub on her Twitter page, where she has hundreds of thousands of followers.
"Dear world: please don't invite me to an event (esp one about social change) and –then after i've accepted– uninvite me because bill clinton then decided to attend/was invited.
it's 2018.
emily post would def not approve," she wrote on Twitter.
She added, "p.s.
…and definitely, please don't try to ameliorate the situation by insulting me with an offer of an article in your mag.".
Although Lewinsky didn't reveal the name of the magazine, other outlets eventually revealed it, and some people leaped to her defense.
Lewinsky was also discussed during the 2016 presidential election due to Hillary Clinton being the Democratic nominee.
Then Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said he believes it's fair game to bring up Bill Clinton's extra-marital affairs when running against Hillary Clinton, and he specifically mentioned Lewinsky when doing so, said The Today Show.
The Today Show quoted Trump as saying, "You look at whether it's Monica Lewinsky or Paula Jones or many of them.
That certainly will be fair game." He justified the comment by saying that Hillary had played the "women card," said the television show.
Asked about this, Lewinsky said, according to The Today Show: "I'm not going to answer that.
How's this? I'm affected by what happens on the world stage, but I don't let it deter me.".
