La Presse (French Newspaper)
''La Presse'' was the first penny press newspaper in France. Overview ''La Presse'' was founded on 16 June 1836 by Émile de Girardin as a popular conservative enterprise.

Girardin wanted the paper to support the government, without being so tied to specific cabinets that it would limit the newspaper's readership. The initial subscription to ''La Presse'' was only 40 francs a year while other newspapers charged around 80 francs. From July 1836 it serialised ''The Countess of Salisbury'' the first novel of Alexandre Dumas, which was such a success that it followed it up with Honoré de Balzac's '' La Vieille Fille''.Pearson, Roger.

Overtime (sports)
Overtime (OT) or extra time (ET) is an additional period of play to bring a game to a decision and avoid declaring the match a tie or draw where the scores are the same. In some sports, this extra period is played only if the game is required to have a clear winner, as in single-elimination tournaments where only one team or players can advance to the next round or win the tournament and replays are not allowed. The rules of overtime or extra time vary between sports and even different competitions. Some may employ " sudden death", where the first player or team who scores immediately wins the game. In others, play continues until a specified time has elapsed, and only then is the winner declared. If the contest remains tied after the extra session, depending on the rules, the match may immediately end as a draw, additional periods may be played, or a different tiebreaking procedure such as a penalty shootout may be used instead.
