.... it in the fall of 1998. Mark McGwire finished the 1998 season with an astonishing 70 home runs. Maris's greatest accomplishment also caused him to have some of his hardest times in life. During the "Home Run Race" Maris was bothered by the press constantly. Wherever he went the press was there. When he went to the super market, to his apartment, to the ballpark even to the bathroom the press was there to ask him questions about "The Race." As a result of this he started to lose his hair faster than normal and he smoked more then he normally did. I admire Roger Maris because even though the press bothered him all the time he did not buckle u .....

As a child, Dmitri spent many hours in his mother’s factory talking to the workers. The chemist there taught him about the concepts behind glass making and the glass blower taught him about the art of glass making. Another large influence in Dmitri’s life had been his sister, Olga’s, husband, Bessargin.

.... instruments while still in his teens, Johann Sebastian first found employment at the age of 18 as a violinist in a court orchestra in Weimar. Soon after, he took a job as an organist at a church in Arnstadt (1703-1707).
