Emmy: Encyclopedia II - Who's your daddy? - Sports

Who's your daddy? - The 2004 ALCS. Perhaps the most notable (to date) use of the phrase arose during the later stages of the 2004 Major League Baseball season. In September, the Boston Red Sox baseball team played two series against their hated rivals, the New York Yankees. After a particularly bad outing, Red Sox pitcher Pedro Martínez made the following quote: "I tip my hat and call the Yankees my daddy ... I can't find a way to beat them at this point." Martínez, whose first language is Spanish and does not ...

The 1980s was a time of many transitions and many firsts for the show. In 1980, the Dobsons were moved to ATWT, and replaced by Douglas Marland.

Emmy: Encyclopedia II - History of Russian animation - Beginnings

The first animator in Russia was Ladislas Starevich, who was of Polish descent and is therefore also known by the name of Wladyslaw Starewicz. Being a trained biologist, he started to make animation with embalmed insects for educational purposes, but soon realized the possibilities of his medium to become one of its undisputed masters later in his life. After his emigration following the October Revolution, animation in Russia came to a standstill for years. Only by the late 1920s Soviet authorities could be convinced to financ ...

Emmy: Encyclopedia II - History of As the World Turns 2000-present - The Sheffer Years

The new head writer of As the World Turns, Hogan Sheffer, quickly became a critical darling, although by the end of his five-year run as Head Writer he would be a controversial figure among As the World Turns fans, credited by some with reviving the strong sense of character development and emotional complexity long associated with the program, and accused by others (most vocally by five-decade veteran actress Eileen Fulton) of neglecting the show's veteran characters.
