Gordon will return to the seat of this car under the lights on August 22nd when he goes for his sixth NASCAR Sprint Cup Series win here. The Fan Tribute: All fans in attendance at the IRWIN Tools Night Race will be given a rally towel with Jeff Gordon’s number 24 printed on it when they enter the gates. On Lap 24, fans will be led in a stadium-wide effort to wave the towels in the air for the duration of the lap as a tribute to Gordon as he makes his last Bristol race before retirement. The Tailgate Party: Prior to the start of the IRWIN Tools Night Race, Bristol will host the “Pepsi Pre-Race Tailgate Celebrating Jeff Gordon”. The VIP experience will take place in Bristol’s Hospitality Village from 1pm on Saturday, August 22nd until the start of the race and will include an appearance by Gordon and other NASCAR personalities and special guests. Fans may purchase the Tailgate package, which features a grandstand ticket to the race, access into the VIP area and $20 in food credit to use inside the Tailgate tent. Souvenir Shopping Changes Fans will notice that souvenir shopping is a bit different in August when the new NASCAR “Trackside Superstore” makes its first appearance at Bristol. The massive retail model will eventually replace the traditional souvenir trailers that have been standard trackside shopping setups for two decades. The new superstore shopping experience will centralize souvenir offerings inside an enormous tent-style structure and offer merchandise from 58 NASCAR drivers and 25 teams. The entire Superstore covers 60,000 square feet of shopping and checkout space - roughly the size of 1.5 football fields. Haulers and trailers for scanner rentals and other merchandise, including Bristol-specific souvenirs, will still be located around the track and outside of the Superstore. Your Market Includes Fans Readying For A Road Trip To Bristol Last August, fans from all 50 states and 25 foreign countries attended the night races, and this August is shaping up to attract a similar crowd. * Let us know if you’d like details of the fans who have purchased tickets from your DMA; we’ll work with you to facilitate feature stories and segments. August 2015 Events Items of Interest/ Significant Storylines (continued) Pre-Race Ceremonies Packed With School Pride and Song Picks On Saturday, pre-race ceremonies for the IRWIN Tools Night Race will include a performance by The University of Tennessee’s Pride of the Southland Marching Band. The ensemble of musicians will treat fans to their trademark rendition of the school’s fight song, Rocky Top. Then, the drivers of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series will take the spotlight for Bristol’s legendary Driver Introductions. Michael Buffer, the man who made famous the phrase “Let’s get ready to rumble!” will lend his trademark voice to the show again this year. He’ll host the parade of racing superstars, where songs hand-picked by each driver will reveal their identity to the crowd. Fans In Your Area Help Make Bristol Better Each NASCAR race weekend, fans from across the world make the pilgrimage to Bristol Motor Speedway to experience the on-track battles at The Last Great Colosseum. But a select group makes the trek with an additional responsibility on their shoulders – to speak with track officials on behalf of all other ticketholders about their experience. Bristol was the first race track to create a Fan Advisory Board, whose Members and Executive Committee participate in monthly conference calls and twice-yearly on-site meetings to provide fan-focused feedback. Since its creation, the FAB’s suggestions, insight and inquiries have been responsible for several improvements and customer service initiatives. * We’re more than happy to connect you with Fan Advisory Board members who live in or have ties to your area. Bristol App and Bristol LIVE Radio Keep Fans Informed During Events Bristol Motor Speedway guests attending the IRWIN Tools Night Race will be able to stay up-to-date on every aspect of the race weekend activities with two key services – the Bristol App and Bristol LIVE Radio.

August 2015 Events Items of Interest/ Significant Storylines (continued) Speedway Economic Impact Figures released by representatives from the Bristol TN/VA Chamber of Commerce in spring of 2015 highlighted the extensive and positive economic impact Bristol Motor Speedway has on the region. According to the combined research, the direct economic impact of Bristol Motor Speedway and Bristol Dragway totaled more than $417 million for 2012 through 2014. This figure was derived from racing and ancillary activities held on-site, charitable events, contributions and tax revenue. The indirect economic impact of the venue totaled more than $1.4 billion moving through the regional economy. The Chamber noted that a secondary economic bump will take place in less than a year-and-a-half when the Battle at Bristol takes place. At that time, the iconic NASCAR short track will transform into college football's largest venue for what’s billed as ‘College Football’s Biggest Game Ever’. It takes place on Sept. 10, 2016 when BMS will host Virginia Tech and the University of Tennessee in the Battle at Bristol. The Chamber study revealed that the event is expected to provide a direct impact of $125 million to the local economy, along with an indirect impact of more than $439 million. The Battle at Bristol Excitement continues to build as the clock ticks down towards the 2016 Battle at Bristol, College Football’s Biggest Ever matchup. History will be made when the World’s Fastest Half Mile hosts a border battle decades in the making between Virginia Tech and the University of Tennessee on Sept. 10, 2016. Expected to draw more than 150,000 fans, the iconic NASCAR short track will transform into college football's largest venue within an estimated two-week timeframe following its August NASCAR race weekend. The Battle at Bristol football game is on track to crush the current NCAA single-game attendance record of 115,109, which was set in September 2013 at Michigan Stadium. Fans can get the latest information about the Battle at Bristol by calling the Speedway Ticket Office toll-free at 866-415- 4158, by visiting BattleAtBristol.com or by visiting Facebook.com/BattleAtBristol. FAQ’s The Fan Info section of bristolmotorspeedway.com contains answers to the most frequently asked fan questions. Short videos with Miss ZMax Christina Davidson explain what fans are allowed and not allowed to bring into the stands, the best ways to get around the area, where to park, area information and more.

  • Cannes Critics Week Panel Films Screened During TIFF Cinematheque's Fifty Years of Discovery: Cannes Critics Week (Jan. 18-22
    Cannes Critics Week panel Films screened during TIFF Cinematheque’s Fifty Years of Discovery: Cannes Critics Week (Jan. 18-22, 2012) In honour of the fiftieth anniversary of Semaine de la Critique (Cannes Critics Week), TIFF Cinematheque invited eight local and international critics and opinion-makers to each select and introduce a film that was discovered at the festival. The diversity of their selections—everything from revered art-house classics to scrappy American indies, cutting-edge cult hits and intriguingly unknown efforts by famous names—testifies to the festival’s remarkable breadth and eclecticism, and its key role in discovering new generations of filmmaking talent. Programmed by Brad Deane, Manager of Film Programmes. Clerks. Dir. Kevin Smith, 1994, U.S. 92 mins. Production Co.: View Askew Productions / Miramax Films. Introduced by George Stroumboulopoulos, host of CBC’s Stroumboulopoulos Tonight, formerly known as The Hour. Stroumboulopoulos on Clerks: “When Kevin Smith made Clerks and it got on the big screen, you felt like our voice was winning.” Living Together (Vive ensemble). Dir. Anna Karina, 1973, France. 92 mins. Production Co.: Raska Productions / Société Nouvelle de Cinématographie (SNC). Introduced by author and former critic for the Chicago Reader, Jonthan Rosenblum. Rosenblum on Living Together: “I saw Living Together when it was first screened at Cannes in 1973, and will never forget the brutality with which this gently first feature was received. One prominent English critic, the late Alexander Walker, asked Anna Karina after the screening whether she realized that her first film was only being shown because she was once married to a famous film director; she sweetly asked in return whether she should have therefore rejected the Critics Week’s invitation.

  • Tennessee Symbols and Honors
    514 TENNESSEE BLUE BOOK Tennessee Symbols And Honors Official Seal of the State Even before Tennessee achieved statehood efforts were made by local govern- mental organizations to procure official seals. Reliable historians have assumed that as early as 1772 the Articles of the Agreement of the Watauga Association authorized the use of a seal. The Legislature of the state of Franklin, by an official act, provided “for procuring a Great Seal for this State,” and there is also evidence that a seal was intended for the Territory South of the River Ohio. The secretary of that territory requested the assistance of Thomas Jefferson in March, 1792, in “suggesting a proper device” for a seal. There is no direct evidence, however, that a seal was ever made for any of these predecessors of Tennessee. When Tennessee became a state, the Constitution of 1796 made provision for the preparation of a seal. Each subsequent constitution made similar provisions and always in the same words as the first. This provision is (Constitution of 1796, Article II, Section 15; Constitution of 1835, Article III, Section 15; Constitution of 1870, Article III, Section 15) as follows: There shall be a seal of this state, which shall be kept by the governor, and used by him officially, and shall be called “The Great Seal of the State of Tennessee.” In spite of the provision of the Constitution of 1796, apparently no action was taken until September 25, 1801. On that date committees made up of members from both the Senate and the House of Representatives were appointed.
