His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Norway’s team led in medals, with 19, and Germany won more gold — nine medals — in the first week than any other country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S., meanwhile, earned eight medals by Friday, including five gold. Snowboarder Redmond “Red” Gerard, a 17-year-old who overslept on the day of his event and had to borrow a too-big jacket after he couldn’t find his own, clinched Team USA’s first gold medal last Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>North Korean figure skaters made their Olympic debut; a Tongan cross-country skier crossed the finish line after only three months of experience on snow. U.S. and Canadian women’s hockey teams scuffled. Every day, there was curling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here is a look at some of the athletes, competition and other highlights of the past week in Pyeongchang. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11650810\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/gettyimages-917171378_custom-3c5eafc2dcaeadf97bd3051f265d64e57b1735f5-s1300-c85-800x511.jpg\" alt=\"Mirai Nagasu of the United States exults after landing a triple axel during the team figure skating event.

That third run was for me — to put down the best run I could do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After scoring just below the 100 mark, Kim said the run wasn’t quite perfect — but we’ll note that it was closer to perfection than anything the thousands of spectators and media had ever seen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/962907996023029760\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kim also tallied the music she listened to.

The medal ceremonies at these Winter Games have been held hours after some events.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I mean, mascot’s really cute,” Kim said. “But just standing on top of the podium” was a special feeling, she added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>China’s Jiayu Liu mounted a challenge to Kim, but it wasn’t quite enough, and she won silver with a high score of 89.75 from her three runs. She secured her spot with a strong second run that had perfect pacing and control in the halfpipe at Phoenix Snow Park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After a fall like Kim’s in the second run — she slid on her rear after a landing — most snowboarders zigzag down the halfpipe; some don’t wait for their scores. But Kim pulled a trick at the bottom of her run, suggesting that she means it when she says that she snowboards not to win, but for fun.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All the same, it seems like she’ll keep winning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”QZYgYkZfACzhXOiyWiahkmUlNvcQ7VdL”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kim has been aiming at the Olympics for a long time. Back in 2014, she couldn’t go to Sochi because she was too young.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I couldn’t make the team in Sochi due to my age – it felt like such a long journey,” she said after Monday’s qualifying runs, according to a transcript from the Olympics’ news service. “You know, going from 13 to 17 is such a big time gap. But at the end of the day, I’m here — and I’m so happy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two years ago, Kim became the first woman to land back-to-back 1080 tricks in competition. She has won big on the World Cup circuit, and at the X Games.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now she has an Olympic gold medal, in the halfpipe event that was run Tuesday morning in Pyeongchang — that’s Monday night in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her strong qualifying runs meant that Kim had the luxury of going last in the field of 12 snowboarders at Phoenix Snow Park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three other Americans joined Kim in the final: Gold, Clark and Maddie Mastro. For Clark, 34, this was a chance to add to her medal collection. She already has a gold from Salt Lake City in 2002 and bronzes from Vancouver and Sochi.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kim was not quite 2 years old when Clark won her first Olympic gold medal — a testament both to Kim’s precociousness and Clark’s talent and resolve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gold said it was “bittersweet” to knock Clark out of third place, saying that in addition to admiring Clark as a teammate and athlete, “she’s someone I’ve looked up to ever since I started snowboarding.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The only thing that could possibly stop Kim’s drive to the podium, it seemed as Tuesday’s event loomed, was the wind.

As research comes out, we’ll be happy to make changes indicated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The research to date has already compelled the league to make some changes. Over the past eight years, Pop Warner set up its medical advisory committee, eliminated kickoffs in the youngest age groups and mandated safety training for coaches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It also did away with full-speed tackling drills during practice, said medical adviser Bailes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s the exposure to thousands of blows to the head is really what we’re trying to reduce,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics say the league still hasn’t done enough.

Researchers have subsequently confirmed CTE in more than 100 deceased NFL players. Will Smith played Omalu in the 2015 film “Concussion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s very basic common sense,” said Omalu. “There is no safe blow to the human head.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite efforts to improve the safety of football helmets, he argues that the danger cannot be prevented with any helmet currently in existence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A child, after one game, could suffer permanent brain damage,” said Omalu. “After just one season of football, your child could suffer permanent brain damage.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why Omalu believes only people over 18 should play contact sports. Adults could still suffer serious damage, but they’re old enough to consent to the risk, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Football is a good sport, an exciting sport for adults who want to play,” Omalu said, while adding, “we need to protect our children.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11648127\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11648127\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/PeterBoehm-800x600.jpg\" alt='Peter Boehm, 14-year-old quarterback of the Pop Warner L.A.

Adults could still suffer serious damage, but they’re old enough to consent to the risk, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Football is a good sport, an exciting sport for adults who want to play,” Omalu said, while adding, “we need to protect our children.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11648127\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11648127\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/PeterBoehm-800x600.jpg\" alt='Peter Boehm, 14-year-old quarterback of the Pop Warner L.A.

I watch their position,” she said. She has had a lot of practice watching defensive linebackers and said her boys play a lot alike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Watching them on the field, you would kind of forget which one of them you were there watching because everything about them, their stance when they're lined up, everything’s the same,” Thagon said. “Or when they’re squatted down, they’re squatting the same way with the same knee up. It’s crazy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She knows only one team can win, which means one of her sons will be disappointed. But they don’t talk about the losses. They move on.

Mychal’s already in his sixth NFL season, and Marvin would like to see him get a Super Bowl win.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’d like to see Mychal go this time,\" he said later in our interview. “Philly hasn’t gone and he’s been in the league six years now. He’s got less time left than Eric. Eric, their team is young enough I think they’ll be back again real soon.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marvin says that while the brothers are close, they aren’t talking to each other this week. He’s just glad they both play defense and won’t actually have a chance to hit one another on the field. He has already heard some trash talk from each of them.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/DeJss9pQBxs'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/DeJss9pQBxs'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>The boys' mother, Yvonne Thagon, who separated from Marvin early in the boys' lives and raised them, plans to be at the game Sunday in person. She said she had a premonition it might come to this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I had known that it was going to come down to this, to this weekend where they would probably be playing each other,” Thagon said. She wouldn’t dream of taking sides, but says other fans sometimes look at her funny when she cheers for both teams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When they’re playing like that against each other, I just watch them. I watch their position,” she said. She has had a lot of practice watching defensive linebackers and said her boys play a lot alike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Watching them on the field, you would kind of forget which one of them you were there watching because everything about them, their stance when they're lined up, everything’s the same,” Thagon said. “Or when they’re squatted down, they’re squatting the same way with the same knee up. It’s crazy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She knows only one team can win, which means one of her sons will be disappointed. But they don’t talk about the losses. They move on. She’s looking forward to grabbing dinner with the two of them after the Super Bowl, when they can just be a family again.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
