The Cubs are the first team to come behind from a 3-1 deficit to win the World Series since the Kansas City Royals did it in 1985. Chicago also accomplished that feat by winning the final two games on the road. The last team to do that was the 1979 Pittsburgh Pirates.
In Spanish, negro (feminine negra) is most commonly used for the color black, but it can also be used to describe people with dark-colored skin. In Spain, Mexico and almost all of Latin America, negro (lower-cased, as ethnonyms are generally not capitalized in Romance languages) means 'black person'.
The Columbia Encyclopedia, 6th ed. Copyright The Columbia University Press. Ã©migrÃ© (ÄmÄgrÄÂ´), in French history, a refugee, usually royalist, who fled the French Revolution and took up residence in a foreign land. The Ã©migrÃ©s comprised all classes, but were disproportionately drawn from the privileged. Immediately after the fall of the Bastille (1789), the exodus of the princes of the blood began, and successive waves of emigration took place after that date. King Louis XVI himself tried to flee (1791) France but was arrested at Varennes.
