Police Officer Moira Smith leads injured Edward Nicholls, a broker at Aon Corporation, to safety from the burning World Trade Center
NYPD officer Moira Smith died on September 11, 2001, while helping to save lives when terrorists flew planes into the World Trade Center.
She was 38-years old at the time.
She was posthumously awardedGlamour Magazine's Woman of the Yearaward later that year.
However, the award was returned to the publication by Moira's husband when he learned that Caitlyn Jenner received the same honor this year.
Read what James Smith had to say via his Facebook page below.
On October 29th, 2001 I was honored to accept the Glamour Magazine "Woman of the Year Award" posthumously given to my wife, Police Officer Moira Smith. Moira was killed on September 11th, 2001 while rescuing thousands from the World Trade Center. EMT Yamel Merino was also posthumously honored that evening for her heroism.
I was shocked and saddened to learn that Glamour has just named Bruce Jenner "Woman of the Year". I find it insulting to Moira Smith's memory, and the memory of other heroic women who have earned this award. Was there no woman in America, or the rest of the world, more deserving than this man? At a time when we have women in the armed forces fighting and dying for our country, heroic doctors fighting deadly diseases, women police officers and firefighters putting their lives on the line for total strangers, brave women overcoming life threatening diseases…the list of possibilities goes on…is this the best you could do?
I can only guess that this was a publicity stunt meant to resuscitate a dying medium.
After discussing this slap in the face to the memory of our Hero with my family, I have decided to return Moira's award to Glamour Magazine.

Muhammad Ali's daughter, Laila Ali, is very familar with Holly Holm's championship boxing background, so it was no surprise to her that "The Preacher's Daughter" destroyed Ronda Rousey at UFC 193.
"It's obvious who the better fighter was," Ali, a former pugilist champion herself, told TMZ Sports. "I think [Rousey] can watch the tape and see what she needs to work on."
"Holly Holm did not fight last night like she used to fight in the ring," Ali continued. "You can't go into an mma fight and fight the same way you would in a boxing match. Any smart fighter, any type of fighter, regardless of what it is. You gotta know what you're getting in there to face and you gotta prepare yourself for it, mentally and physically"
Ali finished by insinuating that Rousey is overrated.
"In order to be the best in the world, you definitely don't ever get beat up like that in your prime, period," she said.
Safaree Samuels has claimed in the past that he helped his ex-girlfriend, Nicki Minaj, write some of her music. He's now about to take her to court to get his share of the financial profits.
TMZ reports that Samuels supposedly has proof to back up his pending lawsuit in the form of witnesses, hours of studio footage, voice memos from recording sessions and video of the two working together.
He's looking to cash in on his alleged work on Nicki's studio albums "The Pink Print," "Pink Friday" and "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded."
In addition, Samuels wants compensation for co-writing the singles "Feeling Myself," "Flawless (Remix)" and "Only."
Before Major without a deal was released, you stated it was the best Album of the year. With the miscalculation of the numbers in the beginning do you still feel it is the best rap album of the year? Yes, That is a facto, like I said Rap album of the year. it is not turn up rap. It is not r&b rap, it is not crunk rap or weirdo backpack rap or nothing like that. major without a deal is straight rap like the shit Biggie and Jay Z was spitting, trap or die shit and different shit like that. Most definitely! You can compare it to anything that came out. I go song for song, how they say pound for pound. My shit you can play straight through, other people put out albums you can not play straight through. They have alot of shit that you want to skip. I make quality music. I put out what the fuck I want and I am independent and I am getting all this fucking money. That is the main objective, that shit totally recouped and I might just grab another bag for it before I go to a major.
You being a successful independent artist and others being artists not assigned to a label that call themselves independent. What is your definition of an independent artist? Anybody that is doing it on their own, there are not no different levels to independent. If you are independent you are putting out your own shit and you are not signed to a major label. You do not have major label distribution or none of that shit.

Ronda Rousey's undefeated record went out the window last night when she suffered a brutal head kick knockout by new champion Holly Holm at UFC 193.
Over the past two years Rousey had become one of the UFC's biggest stars and built a huge fan base. She also turned some fans off with her sometimes arrogant demeanor.
Social media has exploded with memes and reactions to Rousey's first loss. Lets take a look at some of them.
MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Ronda Rousey was the UFC's unstoppable force until Holly Holm used the former champion's aggression against her to produce one of the sport's biggest upsets.
Rousey chased Holm around the ring at UFC 193 on Sunday — looking for the right hold and taking head shots along the way — until Holm saw an opening 59 seconds into the second round and snapped a kick to the head that immediately dropped her more fancied opponent to the canvas.
Holm (10-0) jumped on the prone Rousey, delivering several blows to her head before the referee intervened, ending Rousey's 12-fight unbeaten run and handing Holm the bantamweight title.
An ecstatic Holm jumped around the ring while Rousey stayed on the canvas as she received medical treatment amid the roar of a stunned, record UFC crowd.
"She's won a lot of fights and imposed her will on a lot of fighters," Holm said. "So I expected her to be aggressive and impose her will on me.
"She had me on the cage for a minute and obviously she was trying in for a take down right there ... she had a lot of things she was trying so I'm just glad I put in the practice," she added.
Rousey, a former judo Olympian, was unbeaten through 12 UFC fights before meeting Holm, and a win would have been her seventh title defense. Instead, Holm, a 34-year-old veteran female boxer from Albuquerque, New Mexico, has the championship belt.
"We figured her aggression was coming, if it didn't that's OK, but with footwork and my career we figured she wouldn't give me that space," Holm said. "There's been a lot of blood, sweat and tears but it was all worth it."
Rousey left the stadium to receive treatment for concussion and facial cuts at a nearby hospital after the loss and skipped the post-fight media conference.
"She was transported (to hospital) because she got knocked out," UFC chief Dana White said. "Obviously she's completely bummed out and depressed."
White said a rematch between Holm and Rousey made "a lot of sense" and would put other potential matchups on the backburner.
"Obviously we don't make fights the night of the fight, but the rematch makes a lot of sense," he said. "The rematch is what the people want to see."
In the other title bout, a bloodied Joanna Jedrzejczyk outlasted Valerie Letourneau to successfully defend her straw-weight belt in a five-round slugfest.
Jedrzejczyk (11-0) won a unanimous points decision over Letourneau (8-4) who offered the champion one of her tougher fights in some time.
The six-time Muay Thai world champion Jedrzejczyk started to pressure her opponent from the second round with some trademark, lightning-quick combinations to Letourneau's head, while forcing the challenger to keep her distance with some effective kicks.
Organizers announced a crowd of 56,214 at Melbourne's Etihad Stadium, which normally hosts Australian rules football matches. The mark eclipsed the 55,724 fans who attended UFC 129 at Toronto's Rogers Centre in 2011.
Rousey, 28, has taken UFC by storm since her debut in 2012 and her success has led to several movie projects as well the publishing of her autobiography.
But it was Holm's calm confidence and the manner of her win that attracted all the attention Sunday.
"Tonight was one of those moments," White said. "These are the moments in fighting that make it so crazy and so fun. Tonight was one of those moments."
Holm, a former undisputed welterweight boxing champion, said the moment of her UFC title victory was "one of those moments that you live for."
"They're the scariest moments. This fight was a lot for me mentally," she added. "I couldn't tell you how many times I cried in the gym leading up to this fight.
"It's a lot to take in, but those kinds of fights are the ones where a loss is devastating but a win is that sweet of a victory."
White said that while most onlookers were shocked by Rousey's loss, he was not one of them.
"At the end of the day I made this fight. I said this was a good fight," he said. "Holly was the right fight. Ronda had never faced anybody who uses the range and distance the way she does.
"This woman has four times more fights than Ronda does. She's been a world champion," he said.
In other fights on the undercard, Mark Hunt of New Zealand (11-10-1) won his rematch with Brazil's Antonio Silva (19-8) by technical knockout after the referee stopped the feature heavyweight bout in the first round.
New Zealand-born Australian middleweight Robert Whittaker (16-4) earned a gutsy win on points over Uriah Hall (13-6), while Jared Rosholt (14-2) won a unanimous decision of towering Dutchman Stefan Struve (30-8) in a scrappy opening heavyweight bout of the main card.
In the latest VladTV exclusive with Adrien Broner, the boxer covers every topic from battle rap to wearing women's shoes.
Yes, you read that right. "I wear women's red bottoms [Christian Louboutins] because I wear a six and a half. I got small feet," Broner admits while discussing Young Thug's fashion choices. The 26-year-old world champion even revealed him and Thugger have "messed with the same women before," so any more gay rumors should be put to rest.
In the beginning of the clip, Adrien Broner discusses his battle with fan favorite Murda Mook and why he feels he ultimately won. "I'm 1-0 in the URL League," he states with a grin. "I f*cked him up. He know[s] that. He wasn't prepared, he thought I was joking because I told him wanted to battle him..." Broner then says Mook "had a few good lines but he wasn't fully prepared like he usually be so I kinda caught him off guard. I'm [gonna] take my victory."

PARIS (AP) — French President Francois Hollande vowed to attack the Islamic State group without mercy as the jihadist group claimed responsibility Saturday for orchestrating the deadliest attacks on France since World War II.
Hollande said at least 127 people died Friday night when at least eight attackers launched gun attacks at Paris cafes, detonated suicide bombs near France's national stadium and killed hostages inside a concert hall during a rock show. More than 200 people were injured, dozens critically.
Hollande, who declared three days of national mourning and raised the nation's security to its highest level, called the carnage "an act of war that was prepared, organized, planned from abroad with internal help."
The Islamic State group's claim of responsibility appeared in Arabic and French in an online statement circulated by IS supporters. It was not immediately possible to confirm the authenticity of the admission, which bore the group's logo and resembled previous verified statements from the group. The statement mocked France's involvement in air attacks on suspected IS bases in Syria and Iraq, noting that France's air power was "of no use to them in the streets and rotten alleys of Paris."
As Hollande addressed the nation, French anti-terror police worked to identify potential accomplices to the attackers, whose nationalities and motives remained unclear.
Authorities said eight attackers died, seven in suicide bombings, a new terror tactic in France. Police said they shot and killed the other assailant.
Officials said a Syrian passport was recovered from the remains of one suicide bomber outside the stadium and that a suicide bomber at the concert hall was identified as a young Frenchman flagged in the past for links with an Islamic extremist activity.
Prosecutor's office spokeswoman Agnes Thibault-Lecuivre said authorities couldn't rule out the possibility that other militants involved in the attack remained at large.
The violence raised questions about security for the millions of tourists who come to Paris and for world events routinely hosted in the normally luminous capital, where 1,500 troops were deployed to support police in restoring order and reassuring a frightened populace.
French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve announced that all public demonstrations would be banned until Thursday and local governments would have the option to impose nightly curfews. He said police and military reinforcements would be deployed to key public buildings.
Many of Paris' top tourist attractions closed Saturday, including the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum and the Disneyland theme park east of the capital.
Parisians expressed shock, disgust and defiance in equal measure. Hundreds of soccer fans departing the stadium Friday night waved French flags and sang impromptu choruses of the national anthem, "Le Marseillaise." The next morning, hundreds queued outside a hospital near the Bataclan theater, scene of the most appalling violence, to donate blood. As a shrine of flowers expanded along the sidewalk, a lone guitarist sang John Lennon's peace ballad, "Imagine."
The attacks, on an unusually balmy November Friday evening, struck at the heart of Parisian life: diners in cafes, concertgoers watching a rock band, spectators at a soccer match.
"These places are the places we visit every week," said Ahsan Naeem, a 39-year-old filmmaker. "Streets we walk every day. I've seen dozens of gigs at the Bataclan. Eaten at the Petit Cambodge. Sat outside Le Carillon on so many nights."
Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo said the places attacked are ones Parisians love, where they celebrate diversity.
"It is this Paris that was hit, probably because this example of living together, which is so strong in our city, is unbearable for fanatical people," she said.
Hollande said the attacks meant France would increase its military efforts to crush IS. He said France — which besides bombing suspected IS targets in Syria and Iraq as part of the U.S.-led coalition also has troops fighting militants in Africa — "will be merciless toward the barbarians of Islamic State group."
#BREAKING: Paris attacks were 'act of war' by Islamic State jihadists: French President Francois Hollande
Reflecting fears in other European capitals of the risk of coordinated or copycat attacks, the British government mounted a meeting of its emergency committee, known as COBRA. Italy said it was raising security levels on borders and major public places.
British Prime Minister David Cameron said British citizens were among the casualties in Paris, but he declined to provide specifics. He warned that the threat posed by Islamic State "is evolving."
My message to the French people: Nous sommes solidaires avec vous. Nous sommes tous ensemble. We are with you. United.
Friday night's militants launched at least six gun and bomb attacks in rapid succession on apparently indiscriminate civilian targets.
Three suicide bombs targeted spots around the national Stade de France stadium, north of the capital, where Hollande was watching a France-Germany soccer match. Fans inside the stadium recoiled at the sound of explosions, but the match continued.
Around the same time, fusillades of bullets shattered the clinking of wine glasses in a trendy Paris neighborhood as gunmen targeted a string of crowded cafes. At least 37 people were killed, according to Paris Prosecutor Francois Molins.
The attackers next stormed the Bataclan concert hall, which was hosting the American rock band Eagles of Death Metal. They opened fire on the panicked audience and took members hostage. As police closed in, three detonated explosive belts, killing themselves, according to Paris police chief Michel Cadot.
Another attacker detonated a suicide bomb on Boulevard Voltaire, near the music hall, the prosecutor's office said.
Video shot from an apartment balcony and posted by newspaper Le Monde Saturday captured some of that horror as dozens of people fled from gunfire outside the Bataclan down a passageway to a side street.
At least one person lies writhing on the ground as scores more stream past, some bloodied or limping. The camera pans down the street to reveal more fleeing people dragging two bodies along the ground. A woman and two others can be seen clinging to upper-floor balcony railings in an apparent desperate bid to stay out of the line of fire.
Le Monde said its reporter who filmed the scene from his apartment balcony, Daniel Psenney, was shot in the arm after he stopped filming, when he went downstairs to help someone who had collapsed in the alley.
A tall, sturdy 38-year-old concert-goer named Sylvain collapsed in tears as he recounted the attack, the chaos and his escape during a lull in gunfire.
"I was watching the concert in the pit, in the midst of the mass of the audience. First I heard explosions, and I thought it was firecrackers.
"Very soon I smelled powder, and I understood what was happening. There were shots everywhere, in waves. I lay down on the floor. I saw at least two shooters, but I heard others talk. They cried, 'It's Hollande's fault.' I heard one of the shooters shout, 'Allahu Akbar,'" Sylvain told The Associated Press. He spoke on condition that his full name not be used out of concern for his safety.
He was among dozens of survivors offered counseling and blankets in a municipal building set up as a crisis center.
Jihadis on Twitter immediately praised the attackers and criticized France's military operations against Islamic State extremists.
Hollande declared a state of emergency, announced renewed border checks along frontiers that are normally open under Europe's free-travel zone, and canceled a planned trip to this weekend's G-20 summit in Turkey.
France has been on edge since January, when Islamic extremists attacked the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo, which had run cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad, and a kosher grocery. Twenty people died in those attacks, including three shooters.
French authorities are particularly concerned about the threat from hundreds of French Islamic radicals who have traveled to Syria and returned home with skills to mount attacks.
"The big question on everyone's mind is: Were these attackers — if they turn out to be connected to one of the groups in Syria — were they homegrown terrorists or were they returning fighters?" said Brian Michael Jenkins, a terrorism expert and senior adviser to the president of the Washington-based RAND Corporation.

Lamar Odom's road to recovery is touch and go. While his physical condition has improved, the 36-year old former NBA star's cognitive skills have suffered.
TMZ reports that Odom doesn't recognize friends or family and doctors believe he may have suffered brain damage.
His estranged wife, Khloe Kardashian, gave an update on his condition earlier this week when she appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
"He was in a coma for three days, he's out of it," Khloe said. "The power of prayer to everybody, we're so thankful. He's off of all the machines that help his organs, but still, he has such a long way to go. He's learning how to walk again and feed himself again. Put sentences together. It's a long, long road ahead. We tell him he had a brain injury. I can't tell him how that brain injury was caused. 'Cause it will set him back. He never asks why he's here. He's really confused a lot. We have to remind him. Every day is different. Some days he knows who the president is or his birthday. Other times he think's he's 26, and I say, 'I bet you wish you were 26, so do I.' The stroke affected some of his emotion side, among other parts of the brain. But he's able to smile and laugh at appropriate times."
Odom has been hospitalized since being found unconscious on October 13, at Dennis Hof'sLove Ranch South in Pahrump, Nevada.
