Corinth (Greek Κόρινθος, Kórinthos) ([ˈkorinθos] ( listen)) is a city and former municipality in Corinthia, Peloponnese, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Corinth, of which it is the seat and a municipal unit. It is the capital of Corinthia.

It was founded, as Nea Korinthos or New Corinth in 1858, after an earthquake destroyed the existing settlement of Corinth, which had developed in and around the site of ancient Corinth.

Located about 78 kilometres (48 mi) southwest of Athens, Corinth is surrounded by the coastal townlets of (clockwise) Lechaio, Isthmia, Kechries, and the inland townlets of Examilia and the archaeological site and village of ancient Corinth. Geophysically the city is likewise surrounded by the narrow coastal plain of Vocha, Corinthian Gulf, Corinth Canal, the Isthmus of Corinth, Saronic Gulf, Oneia Mountains, and the monolithic rock of Acrocorinth, where the medieval acropolis was built.

Corinth derives its name from Ancient Corinth, a city-state of antiquity. In 1858, the old city of Corinth (now known as Archaia Korinthos (Αρχαία Κόρινθος), located 3 km (1.9 mi) SW of the modern city), was totally destroyed by an earthquake. This led to the establishment of Nea or New Corinth, on the coast of the Gulf of Corinth. New Corinth was rebuilt after a further earthquake in 1928 and again after a great fire in 1933.

Robert William Maddison, commonly known as Robbie Maddison and "Maddo" (born 14 July 1981) in Caringbah, Australia is an Australian motorbike stunt rider from the town of Kiama, New South Wales.

Growing up in Kiama Downs he developed his passion for riding by competing in national motocross events.

He finished school at Kiama High and took up an electrician apprenticeship, after getting viral meningitis and viral encephalitis, which left him paralyzed and blind in one eye. After recovering for numerous years with this virus he returned to the bike riding to further follow his passion.

In May 2005, the Crusty Demons gave Robbie the opportunity to break two world records on his motorbike. 125cc distance Guinness world record- 221feet 250cc distance world record with a trick- 246 feet (75 m) superman seat grab.

After this he went on to win numerous international FMX events around the world and get recognized as one of the best FMX riders in the world.

On 31 December 2007, (on the 40th anniversary of Evel Knievel jumping the fountains at Caesars Palace), Live on ESPN, Maddison broke the world motorcycle jumping record, traveling 98.34m on a motorbike. He repeated the event immediately afterward, successfully landing the jump, as his fiancee Amy looked on. His second attempt, however, did not go as far as the first jump; he was not injured in either jump.

John McLaughlin Williams is a Grammy award-winning American orchestral conductor and violinist.

He attended the Boston University School of Music, the New England Conservatory and is a graduate of The Cleveland Institute of Music. His violin studies were with Dorothy Delay, conducting with Carl Topilow and composition with Donald Erb and Margaret Brouwer. A relative newcomer to conducting, he has appeared as a guest conductor with many ensembles, but at present he holds no permanent post. He has recorded several cds for the Naxos Records label, all in their American Classics series, where he has shown a remarkable ability to uncover lost gems by American composers of the first half of the twentieth century (such as Henry Hadley and John Alden Carpenter), and bring them vividly to life with the National Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine and the National Radio Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine. The resurgence of interest in western American composer George Frederick McKay (1899-1970) can be attributed to John's pioneering Naxos recordings of McKay's music. As a violinist he has appeared as soloist around the US, and he was an active free-lancer in the Boston area, where he was Assistant Concertmaster of the Boston Pops Esplanade Orchestra and played as a substitute with the Boston Symphony. John was also a member of the Houston Symphony, and was Concertmaster of the Virginia Symphony. He was awarded a Grammy in 2007 for his recording of Olivier Messiaen's Oiseaux Exotiques, in which he conducted the Cleveland Chamber Symphony with pianist Angelin Chang. John has received a total of four Grammy Nominations, the most recent being awarded in 2010 and 2008. John McLaughlin Williams has also served as Assistant Conductor of the Britt Festival in Oregon.
