Hawkins (name)

The English language surname Hawkins originated in the 11th century in Kent, England. Its meaning comes from the word "hawking", meaning "falconry". Hawkins may have evolved to the variant "Haughan" or "O'haughan" due to migration of peoples to Ireland during the Civil War in the 16th century. It is rare as a given name.

Hawkins (TV series)

Hawkins is a television series which aired for one season on CBS between 1973 and 1974. The mystery, created by Robert Hamner and David Karp, starred James Stewart as rural-bred lawyer Billy Jim Hawkins, who investigated the cases he was involved in, similarly to Stewart's earlier smash hit movie Anatomy of a Murder (1959). Despite being critically well received and winning a Golden Globe Award (Best Actor in Television Drama Series, Stewart), the series was cancelled after one season consisting of seven 90-minute episodes. Stewart requested the cancellation since he believed that the quality of scripts and directors in television could not continuously measure up to the level to which he was accustomed with theatrical films.

Seen as part of The New CBS Tuesday Night Movies, it alternated every third week with the TV movie adaptations of Shaft, along with other TV movies. Contemporary analysts suggested that since the two shows appealed to vastly different audience bases, alternating them only served to confuse fans of both series, giving neither one the time to build up a large viewership.

Geni (footballer)

Eugenio Suárez Santos (born 4 February 1980), known as Geni, is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Marino de Luanco as a forward.

Football career

Born in Gijón, Asturias, Geni emerged through neighbours Real Oviedo's youth system, making his first-team debuts not yet aged 19 as the club was then in La Liga. Definitely promoted to the main squad in 2000, he would see the side lose two categories in only two years.

Geni then moved to Rayo Vallecano in the second division, playing almost 30 games without scoring in his first season, which ended in another relegation, and left in 2006 to another team in the third level, Real Jaén, where he played and scored regularly.

In 2009 Geni signed with Deportivo Alavés, with the Basque in division three. He continued competing in that category until the end of the 2014–15 campaign, also representing Real Avilés.

Personal life

Geni's younger brother, Alberto, was also a professional footballer. He spent the vast majority of his career in the third tier.
