Buenos Aires: A helicopter which was being used for filming an MTV reality show has crashed into a reservoir in Argentina killing the pilot and a technician.
The aircraft came down at the Potrerillos de Mendoza dam in western Argentina, officials said. MTV said the helicopter was flying to a shooting location for the show The Challenge.
Neither of those killed was a cast or film crew member, the US channel said, and no-one else was on board. Divers were having difficulty finding the bodies, the security minister for Mendoza province, Gianni Vernier, told.
The wreckage lies at a depth of 60m (200ft). It was the second fatal crash of a helicopter involved in a reality TV show this year in Argentina.
The helicopters were involved in the filming of the TV survival show Dropped.

By Erin Moriarty Harrelson, August 2017
Last week, the MobileDeaf team organised its first reading/film discussion groups at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh. These reading/discussion groups are built around themes (about 15 themes over 6 months) and last week's theme was Ethnographic Filmmaking. Each of us will direct a full-length ethnographic film within the frame of our own MobileDeaf subproject. Ethnographic film is a type of documentary film that is rooted in long-term ethnographic field work. We read four assigned articles, all related to ethnographic, reflexive and participatory filmmaking. We also watched Ishaare: Gestures and Signs in Mumbai, a 2015 film directed by Annelies Kusters and discussed particular approaches to ethnographic filmmaking. After this, we had an inspiring two-day visit by deaf filmmaker Jorn Rijckaert.
Ishaare: An Example of a Deaf Ethnographic Film
Ever since she started spending time in India (including 3 years of living there), Annelies had been interested in gesture as a part of everyday communicative practices. She conducted research in India about deaf space on trains and translanguaging in public spaces. In her research, she used film as a means of documenting the visuality of gesture and deaf peoples' co-creation of spaces. Annelies worked closely with representatives of the deaf community in Mumbai and her co-researcher, Sujit Sahasrabudhe, who is also her husband. Annelies and Sujit selected 5 deaf people who had already had experience in video production and contracted with Jorn Rijckaert of Visualbox to provide formal training on deaf filmmaking techniques. Three of the trainees (Rohan Satardekar, Harish Chaudhari and Prakash Khairnar) became the cameramen for this film which was edited by Jorn.
There are certain techniques that had to be thought out in advance, such as positioning of the sign language interpreter to ensure they are clearly visible but don't dominate the shot, for instance. Other decisions included framing to ensure the signing was clear, how to best frame an interviewer and the interviewee, and so forth. More background on the making of Ishaare can be found below:
After watching Ishaare, we engaged in a discussion of what it means to make a film as deaf researchers doing deaf anthropology. We discussed the technical decisions that went into the making of Ishaare, as well as the process of choosing the protagonists in the film, representations of their everyday experiences, shooting, editing, and the selection of themes for the interlinking "chapters" in the film to develop the story arc. Finally, we discussed the film as a tool for elicitation of more data on the ideologies surrounding gestures and signed languages in India.
Reflexivity, Participation and Ethnographic Filmmaking Projects
Our readings for this week included readings on the possibilities of doing reflexive research with participants using video. Reflexivity is an integral part of a good ethnography, especially because of the inherent power relations involved in research. Reflexivity includes critical reflection on methodology. One of the visual methodologies we discussed was participatory video, which is a methodology driven by the idea that the reflexivity of the research participants and the researcher emerges naturally out of the process of making videos. Participatory video is thought to have the potential to systematically elicit participants' reflexivity as they make films about their own lives and the issues important to them with minimal instruction from the researcher. As participants make their own films, they intervene in their own lives and re-create their everyday lives through film as the reframing of their everyday experiences becomes a new way of seeing. This can give researchers insight in what people construct as important for themselves and it can be liberating for the participants but the researcher runs the risk of an outcome that has nothing to do with the original research question.
The framework these articles provided for our discussions resulted in deliberations such as, how could we, MobileDeaf researchers, use this methodology in our individual research projects and in our filmmaking? We came up with the idea to use participatory video in our research methodology to learn what is important for our participants, but will ourselves direct the contents of the full-length ethnographic films that will be the outcome of our project. After all, one of the aims of the ethnographic film is to disseminate research findings, and doing four independent but interrelated projects, we want to ensure we are covering the same main themes. There is the possibility of integrating some of the participatory videos in the final ethnographic films, though.
Deaf Cinema and Representation
Jorn Rijckaert visited us at Heriot-Watt and gave an excellent presentation on the history of deaf cinema. He opened his presentation with a poignant story about his parents finding out he was deaf and going to see Children of a Lesser God to better understand their deaf son. He showed us a brief clip of the opening scenes from this film and asked, "Why do you think my parents left the theater in despair about the future of their deaf son?" The opening clip shows William Hurt with wind-swept hair standing by his truck on a ferry sailing through grey waters towards a remote, mist-shrouded island. Jorn then explained that in Belgium, where he is from, a famous priest worked at an island known for its leprosy patients and the opening scenes of the Children of a Lesser God used well-worn tropes of deaf isolation to invoke pathos in the viewer by showing a boarding school on a remote island.
This was a powerful opening for his talk that set the stage for our discussions of deaf cinema. Jorn criticised films that exoticise deaf people or construct them as deficient, isolated beings with problems solved by hearing saviors. He explained that his research focused on the question, what is deaf cinema? Jorn brought us up to date on the history of deaf cinema, explaining that since 1902, there have been more than 150 Hollywood films showing some kind of bias against deaf people, giving the examples of Jane Wyman in Johnny Belinda and more recent films such as Tribe.
What makes a film deaf and why?
Our discussion also covered topics such as, what is a deaf plot? What are "deaf" shooting/framing compositions? How deaf filmmakers frame a shot is generally different from how a hearing filmmaker would frame a shot: deaf filmmakers generally make more use of medium shots to include signing space in the shot. A close up shot is associated with being hearing/speaking and Jorn showed us how in The End, becoming hearing was associated with zooming in on the person's face to indicate they were now speaking rather than signing people. Other examples included compositions of shots for interviews in sign languages and/or with sign language interpreters.
MobileDeaf Film Planning
At the end of the week, the MobileDeaf team met with Jorn to discuss our individual films and the sort of preparation material needed, schedules, and so forth. Because of the differences between our field sites, we expect there will be significant differences in how we go forward producing our films, so we discussed different strategies such as working with professional deaf filmmakers and editors or training deaf camerapeople in the countries where we do research. As the four of us go forward, each of us will find out which strategy works for our individual project, and we hope that in the end, we will have a lot of know-how and tips to share on deaf ethnographic filmmaking. Annelies is starting to shoot for her film next week in Denmark, and she will share her experiences in the next blog. Stay tuned!

very simple bot, To place a trade with preset parameters at a set time daily and to set a trailing stop loss on winning trades so trade can carry on until its closed out and to carry on the same day and do again even if previous dat trade is still active. so everyday a new trade is opened and the previous trade the before will be followed and trailing stop loss adjusted until trade closed out.

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Brazil forward Gabriel Jesus extended his Manchester City contract on Friday to 2023, adding two more years to his previous deal.
Jesus joined City in January 2017, and has 24 goals in 53 matches. He helped City win the English Premier League and League Cup last season.
"I can say that it was the best decision I've made in my life to come to Manchester City because whilst I'm here I'm improving as a professional and as a person," Jesus told the club website.
Also, Spanish winger Pedro signed a one-year contract extension at Chelsea.
The 31-year-old Pedro, who arrived from Barcelona in 2015, extended his contract to 2020.
He has played 131 games for Chelsea, scoring 28 times.

Texting My Pancreas: Talking About Type 1 Talk.
As much as I love my friends in the online community, it's tough to not want some face-to-face contact with other people who have type 1 diabetes. Making a connection with someone in your local community helps deter the lonely, "going it alone" feeling that so many of us have.
The support group pickings around my area are pretty slim. We have a JDRF-affiliated support group, but it is geared towards families. (I went for the first time a few weeks back, and ended up spending my time assisting 17 small children with craft projects - I didn't quite fit the demographic, and I think they didn't quite know what to do with me.) One of the local hospitals has a diabetes support group, but it is for type 2's. I don't fit particularly well with either group, and I know others out there have this same dilemma.
Some of us have expressed our frustrations about this situation. We know there are other T1s out there, but how do we find them? Strike up a conversation with the other people in the waiting room at your next endo appointment? Wait in the "diabetes care" aisle at Walmart until someone shows up?
JDRF has caught wind of this need to connect T1s on a local level, and announced earlier this month a project called Type 1 Talk.
The idea is for local meet-ups to take place all over the US, all at the same time (3:00pm EST) on World Diabetes Day, which is Sunday, November 14th.
In addition to meeting each other and discussing what matters to us locally, everyone is invited to watch the live JDRF webcast addressing five topics that we picked out and voted on.
All of the events are being coordinated through the Type 1 Talk Facebook application. Go there to search for events, create your own, RSVP, and ask questions.
You can search for an event in your state, and if there isn't one registered yet, consider hosting one of your own! (That's what I'm doing!) It doesn't have to be fancy. If you're going to watch the webcast, you'll need a computer, a web connection, and sound.
You can make the event as big or small as you want, by setting a maximum number of attendees. JDRF has made it pretty easy to get prepared for the event by uploading ready-made materials you can print off, like a sign-in sheet and Advocacy information.
If you are interested, or know someone that might be, please pass this onto them. JDRF isn't asking for donations - they're just asking us to get together. To Talk about Type 1.


What's the Joe Phoenix Ion Motorcycle Jacket?
The Phoenix Ion fulfils its origin's saga by being one of the best mesh jackets produced. They are lightweight and feels like heaven when on a long bike ride on a hot summer afternoon.
The Joe Rocket Phoenix Ion Jacket is one of the latest releases from the long-running and ever-popular Joe Rocket Phoenix mesh jackets. Is there a difference in the standard Phoenix jacket and this version? Not much other than INNOLITE, a reflective coating on it and some extra features. The ads have been promoting that feature a lot so, I was disappointed when it didn't meet up to the standards I was expecting it to. But, other than that and some extra features, it remains the same old Joe Rocket's Phoenix jacket.
When the Joe Rocket brand first released their Phoenix jacket, it became a raging hit. All the motorbike riders were impressed by the quality and feel of the Phoenix jackets and found it so very convenient during hot weather for it's cool mesh. It was the next best thing after motorbikes - a cool and comfortable jacket that doesn't make you look like a typical and clichéd bike rider.
Back in 2002, I purchased the original Phoenix jacket and had a memory of it being a little scratchy and ill-fitting but now it seems like the jacket series is progressing quite nicely and is an enormous upgrade over the original. Because I am somewhat big, I ordered an L (silver) though I was worried that maybe it wouldn't fit me. I am 5'11, 180 lb. With a 36-inch chest and a 34-inch waist. But it fit me quite nicely and snuggly with the all those extra liner paddings.
Back in 2002, when it was introduced, it was all about the proper air ventilation. The jacket did not have any liners options but now with time, when there's unpredictability in the weather, these added options are a bonus. It is comfortable and fits like heaven. The jacket became more stylish by adding the three-position snap adjusters at biceps and forearm as well as a wide band of hook and loop at the hem to help make the waist area more tighter depending on the size. This time, it also comes with Dynax solid fabric stitched on the upper back, ribs, elbows, shoulder and forearms. The waterproof shell liner and detachable (zippers) thin insulated vest end up making it a fantastic product at the price range it is available.
The Ion jacket comes with a non-adjustable collar but, it is lined with a very soft micro-fleece that makes it quite comfortable on the neck area. It could have done with multiple options there but unfortunately, it is just a single non-adjustable snap. There is hand pockets (zippered) at bottom front and two-lined semi-waterproof pockets on the left side of the jacket. There's one more hidden under a black strip of hook and loop at that hem area, which, by the way, is a good place to hide some money or other important items. There's a small upside-down shaped pocket at the rear of the jacket if you are too adventurous. The main zipper is the only one with the brand logo of Joe Rocket but others are unbranded.
It is very comfortable and relaxing to wear this jacket. When you remove the extra lining, it becomes lighter and the air just goes right through. It's good for all seasons - summer, rain or a slight April chill. This is another great jacket from Joe Rocket. Really good value for less than a night out on the town.

Confession – I'm a terrible photographer…well so far… and I know little to nothing about editing, but am willing to learn. Probably the worst of it is, the only camera I have is a point and shoot and I don't even know how to use it properly. Should I be ashamed to admit that?
I had my cell phone with me when I took my early morning constitutional and ended up with these photos.
The sky was so very beautiful, my heart wooshed and I was filled with gratitude.
Just made me want to give thanks.

Film Review – Clifford The Big Red Dog (2021)
Cinema film reviews humour
By Freda Cooper / December 6, 2021
Who can resist a friendly puppy? Even if he's bright red and gigantic, like the star of Clifford The Big Red Dog, it would take the hardest of hearts not to be charmed just a little. The original Clifford made his debut back in the mid-60s and appeared in around 80 children's books, all by writer and cartoonist Norman Bridwell. To say nothing of audio versions, a TV series and an animated film. It was only a matter of time before his creation made it to a big enough screen. If only the filmmakers could have waited a little longer ….
Emily Elizabeth (Darby Camp) finds herself being looked after by her irresponsible uncle Casey (Jack Whitehall) when her mum Maggie (Sienna Guillory) is out of town on business. They're under strict instructions to stay out of trouble but, in the local park, they come across an animal carnival run by the mysterious Mr Bridwell (John Cleese) – a nod to the original author – who introduces Emily to the cute, and very red, Clifford who is still very much puppy-sized. Clifford manages to sneak home with the girl and, although she knows she'll have to return him the next day, she wakes up to find that he's grown into an enormous, exuberant and loveable red dog (well, actually, he's still a puppy, but you know …..) A series of adventures follow, which include avoiding the grumpy super at the apartment block, getting into Emily's school and, most importantly, staying out of the clutches of villainous businessman, Zack Tieran (Tony Hale).
Just three words sum up the film. Clifford is cute. Nobody would disagree and his own style of canine charm is exactly what you get for an hour and a half. Except he's only the genuinely likeable thing on screen and, even then, he has his limitations. Admittedly, this writer isn't the target audience for the film: with its PG certificate, it's aimed at eight year olds and below, although the story and the way it's told clearly has an even younger age group in mind. Adults, on the other hand, might find their tolerance levels stretched to their limits.
The sad thing about Clifford The Big Red Dog is that, no matter how much you set out wanting to like it, it never, ever lives up to your expectations. Take a closer look at the CGI mutt. Sure, he's appealing, but somehow the actors never really look at him in the face and he's guilty of the same special effects sin. Worse still, in the scenes when either Emily or Casey are shown riding him like a horse, there's no attempt to depict a human on his back. The effect is more like a bag of spuds with flailing arms riding a big red bucking bronco. The bottom line is that it looks cheap, as if the entire budget was thrown at the CGI dog and anything left over was spread so thinly that it became invisible.
The rest of the film isn't much better: Jack Whitehall's accent – a combination of fake American and Brit – is downright bizarre. Emily Elizabeth's best friend at school, the nerdy Owen (Isaac Wang), is supposed to provide some of the comedy but is saddled with one-liners that land like pancakes. Even John Cleese is unable to bring a touch of class to proceedings, while Tony Hale never shakes off the pantomime villain cliché. There's so little that works in the film that watching it becomes an endurance test, rather than uplifting. Chances are its intended audience will be so captivated by Clifford himself that it won't matter, but the rest of us will be thinking we've just watched a big red dud.

Gov. Walz Announces Special Session of MN Legislature
Abby Faulkner
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz
ST. PAUL -- Prompted by civil unrest following the fatal arrest of George Floyd coupled with continued economic devastation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Tim Walz Wednesday announced a Special Session of the Minnesota Legislature.
Minnesota's Constitution allows the governor to call a special session of the Legislature when faced with "extraordinary" circumstances. Walz says the session will focus on issues of police reform and accountability, and Minnesota's economic recovery amid the ongoing pandemic, including an extension of Minnesota's peacetime emergency status.
State lawmakers were unable to reach a deal on a bonding bill in the regular legislative session. Walz said the special session will give them an opportunity to pass meaningful reform quickly, instead of delaying discussion of issues until the next legislative session.
"This is our chance to take strong action to combat persistent structural inequities, pass substantive police reform, and build a stronger economy," he said. "I look forward to working with the legislature to seize this moment and build a brighter future for Minnesotans."
The death of George Floyd on Memorial Day in Minneapolis has prompted widespread protests and elicited a call from activists to restructure police departments across the country. A ruling majority of Minneapolis City Council members Sunday voiced their support for disassembling the city's police department.
Walz encouraged state lawmakers to "seize the moment" to pass statewide laws on police conduct.
"I would really encourage the legislature to not miss this opportunity," Walz said. "The state legislature in New York has already passed a statewide ban on choke holds. We saw the Minneapolis City Council do that, but it is not (banned) in the state, or the cities across the state. Why would we not take that up now?"
All 50 states and the federal government have implemented emergency powers to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. Minnesota's peacetime emergency status permits the activation of the National Guard to assist in relief efforts. It also provides economic relief and stability to those impacted by the pandemic, including $50 million in federal assistance.
The special session begins Friday at noon.

Database environments continue to increase in size and complexity while the challenge of maintaining the performance and availability of business-critical systems is also growing.
A brand new study fielded among Database Trends and Applications readers and members of the Independent Oracle Users Group reveals that database professionals are being tasked with managing more database instances and platforms, and in greater sizes, than ever before – both on premises and in the cloud.
As a result, it's no surprise that the biggest priorities for database teams this year are improving database performance, database upgrades, and data integration. The other common factor in all these initiatives is the central role played by database replication.
DBTA recently held a webinar with Joe McKendrick, lead analyst at Unisphere Research, and Sreevani Abbaraju, product manager at Quest Software, who discussed the new market insights and and best practices for meeting database goals this year.
According to McKendrick, today's top database concerns range from the availability of applications to performance and database security, to migrating to the cloud.
The impact of downtime was duly noted with respondents of the survey saying it means longer hours, the company's loss of its reputation, employee dissatisfaction, and more.
Storage for mission-critical data is on the move, with cloud rising to the top, according to McKendrick and the survey.
Data replication is also another option for disaster recovery, offloading workloads, data integration, and more.

The AAP government had yesterday announced introduction of the odd-even scheme as part of a Graded Response Plan to tackle the alarming pollution situation in the national capital.
NEW DELHI: The National Green Tribunal (NGT) today said it would examine at 2 PM today the Delhi government's decision to roll out odd-even car rationing scheme for five days starting from November 13.
A bench headed by NGT Chairperson Justice Swatanter Kumar directed the Delhi government to submit before it the details of the ambient air quality during the earlier implementation of the odd-even scheme.
The Green panel directed the counsel appearing for the Delhi government to be ready with all the requisite data and show before it the reason for implementing the latest odd-even scheme.
On April 21, last year, the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) had told NGT that there was no data to suggest that the odd-even scheme has led to a decline in vehicular pollution in Delhi-NCR.
The pollution monitoring body had said that there was no data to indicate that car rationing scheme has any impact on decrease in vehicular pollution and the fluctuations in PM10 and PM2.5 is due to weather and change in wind patterns.
The national capital is experiencing 'severe' air quality under a blanket of thick haze, as pollution levels have breached permissible standards by multiple times.
The Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has recorded 'severe' air quality, meaning that the intensity of pollution was extreme.

Q: Preventing hyphenation of specific short, repeated, hyphenated words I'm writing a document where I frequently refer to some experimental cases which are called things like "M-1" and "P-2". It's always a single number, a hyphen, and a single number. In several places, I'm finding these case names broken across two lines with the number and hyphen on the first line and the number on the second line. Is there a way to tell the document never to break these words across two lines aside from using \mbox or \nobreakdash at every instance?
My hope would be to define something globally, like the opposite of the \hyphenation command, specifically for these case names (there's 7 of them). I'd prefer to avoid changing setting which would affect other words in the document, like \exhyphenpenalty=10000.
If using \mbox or \nobreakdash is the best option, what's the difference between the two?
As suggested by Dan and David I tried setting up
\renewcommand{\P}{P\nobreakdash}
(and the same for the other cases, except M, which used \newcommand) So that I would still have the text P-1 in the text for searching purposes. In the text of the document, it works fine. However, sometimes I name the cases in figure captions, and the document has to include a list of figures. The case name shows up fine in the figure caption, but in the list of figures, I get a missing control sequence error. With a caption of:
\caption[For case P-1.]{For case P-1, more words.},
the lof output file reads
\contentsline {figure}{\numberline {4.1}{\ignorespaces For case P\unhbox \voidb@x \toks@ \@emptytoks \def 1{\toks@ {--}\futurelet \@let@token \setbox \z@ \hbox {-\penalty \@M }\unhbox \z@ }\def \setbox \z@ \hbox {-\penalty \@M }\unhbox \z@ {\setbox \z@ \hbox {-\penalty \@M }\unhbox \z@ }\futurelet \@let@token \setbox \z@ \hbox {-\penalty \@M }\unhbox \z@ -1.}}{64}{figure.caption.62}.
The text of the document says "For case P------1" (the first hyphen is sometimes an different character that's the same length, but gray and slightly lower, and sometimes it's a regular hyphen). This is happening for all of the cases, except the L cases. All of which occur before this error in the list of figures. Although I tried changing one of the references to P-1 that was giving this error to L-1, and the error went away for that caption.

A: You can't have really have P-1 free in the text if you want to avoid line breaks at the explicit hyphen.
You might follow the suggestions in comments to (re)define \P, \M and \S, but I wouldn't recommend it, preferring a prefix:
\usepackage{amsmath} % for \nobreakdash
\DeclareRobustCommand{\hM}{M\nobreakdash}
\DeclareRobustCommand{\hP}{P\nobreakdash}
\DeclareRobustCommand{\hS}{S\nobreakdash}

Note that \nobreakdash doesn't print a hyphen by itself and it must be followed by one, two or three - characters meaning 'hyphen', 'en-dash' and 'em-dash' as usual. So P-1 will be searchable in your LaTeX code.
Here's the test showing that those macros don't cause line breaks at the hyphen.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath} % for \nobreakdash
\DeclareRobustCommand{\hM}{M\nobreakdash}
\DeclareRobustCommand{\hP}{P\nobreakdash}
\DeclareRobustCommand{\hS}{S\nobreakdash}

\begin{document}
\parbox{0pt}{
\hspace{0pt}%
\hM-1 \hP-2 \hS-3

\hspace{0pt}%
\hM--1 \hP--2 \hS--3

\bigskip

\mbox{Compare}

\hspace{0pt}%
M-1 P-2 S-3

\hspace{0pt}%
M--1 P--2 S--3
}
\end{document}

The \hspace{0pt} bits are just to allow TeX try hyphenation on the first word of a paragraph. In a \parbox with zero width, hyphenation will be forced at all feasible places.

A: You can use \mbox{} for this cause. You might want to define a command or commands to use it (\def or \newcommand).
See the example below:
\documentclass[14pt]{article}

\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[a6paper]{geometry} % demo only

\begin{document}

\noindent
question question question question question M-3 question question question question

\noindent
question question question question question M-3 question question question question

\noindent
question question question question question \mbox{M-3} question question question question

\noindent
question question question question question M-3 question question question question

\end{document}

PS: if the word did not contain a dash or a number you could have defined a \hyphenation{} without real hyphenation possibilities.
PS: You can see some other methods here.

Many settlement service provider organizations are experiencing challenges in human resources capacity building. Key issues involve staff recruitment, retention, career progression, leadership development, sector compensation levels and well-being at work.
The changing world of work is a factor in the complexities. The workplace and employee expectations shifted dramatically during the COVID-19 pandemic. Recent trends impacting turnover rates and recruitment challenges can be associated with resignations, reassessment of priorities with preference for fulfilling work with flexibility, better work-life balance, higher pay, and improved benefits. It's valuable for settlement service providers to be informed about current trends in the world of work, and what the future of work might mean for their organization and human resources management. This includes looking at the impact of the pandemic and beyond.
In this AMSSATalk virtual event, Katie Crocker, AMSSA CEO, will moderate an armchair-style panel discussion with employment experts from the sector. They will discuss current issues, challenges, and approaches that can contribute to building HR capacity as organizations strive to deliver settlement and employment services that help newcomers achieve the best possible settlement outcomes.
Date: Thursday, February 2, 2023
Time:1:00 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. PST
Location: Zoom Webinar – Event details will be emailed immediately after registration

Above: Hampden Stadium during the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games
There has always been a close connection between athletics and football. Many football clubs were built with a track round the pitch which enabled the hosting of athletics events.
Clubs took advantage of this and at one time would attract large crowds to athletics events with a five-a-side football tournament as the accompaniment.
The SAAA (Scottish Amateur Athletic Assocation) utilised football grounds for the national championships with the three major Glasgow venues – Hampden Park, Ibrox Park and Celtic Park – being used frequently. Hampden Park was the most popular venue, used to host the championships on 31 occasions between 1887 and 1951. Indeed, from 1929 to 1951 it was the sole venue for the championships.
SWAAA Championships 1931 – programme cover
When the SWAAA (Scottish Women's Amateur Athletic Association) first held their national women's championship in 1931, the venue was Ibrox Park, which was used regularly by the SWAAA for the championships on Friday evenings in the 1930s.
Going back in time to the 19th Century, when football was developing and a proper league structure had not yet been put in place, many clubs held athletic sports meetings. This was common in Glasgow where the leading clubs such as Rangers, Celtic, Queen's Park and Third Lanark hosted annual sports, but such meetings could be found across the country – Kilmarnock, Hearts, Arbroath and St Mirren to name just a few.
The first open athletics club in Scotland was Clydesdale Harriers, founded in 1885, and from its beginnings, many members took part in other sports but the connection with Rangers was strong and several men were founder members of both clubs. Clydesdale trained at the Rangers facilities at Kinning Park and then Ibrox, and their annual sports were held there, attracting many of the leading British athletes of the time.
Rangers and Celtic, the dominant clubs in Scotland, put on major sports meetings. The Celtic sports meeting was first held in 1892 and that initial event was reported to have attracted a crowd of 15,000. The event continued annually until it petered out just before the Second World War, the last meeting being held in 1938.
However, the Rangers Sports were undoubtedly the biggest events to be held at a football ground. Rangers early link with Clydesdale Harriers cemented an interest in athletics. The football club held their first annual sports on 20 August 1881 and they were held up until 1962. The sports attracted international athletes of high calibre to them. In 1931, the great Finnish athlete Paavo Nurmi competed in the 2 Miles and 4 Miles races, breaking the Scottish all-comers' record held for many years by Alf Shrubb by three seconds with his run of 19:20.4.
This was just one of seventy all-comers' records set during the course of the Rangers Sports and at the time of the last Sports in 1962, 20 of the listed all-comers' records had been set at the event, including such names as Lindy Remigino (100 yards), the Jamaican Herb McKenley (220), India's Milkha Singh (440), and Derek Ibbotson of England who held the 1, 2 and 3 miles records.
As an illustration of the quality, the 1952 Sports saw 5 Olympic champions compete and all broke British or Scottish all-comers' records. Remigino beat McDonald Bailey to win the 100 yards, USA's Walt Davis bettered the high jump record, Jamaica's George Rhoden broke the 440 yards record and then teamed up with Herb McKenley and Arthur Wint (both Olympic relay gold medallists) in the Jamaican quartet that won the medley relay. McKenley had already beaten the British record for 220 yards. All cheered on by a 50,000 crowd who also watched Hearts beat Hibs in the five-a-side football.
Athletics was common as entertainment for the crowds – this photograph is a woman's relay race from Aberdeen's Pittodrie Park as early as 1933.
In 1965, Ming Campbell, a future President of Scottish Athletics, set a Scottish record of 7.5 seconds for 75 yards at half time during the St Mirren v Rangers match at Love Street, Paisley, beating Ron Marshall and Les Piggot. Before the match, Crawford Fairbrother had cleared 6 feet 9 inches in the high jump, just ½ inch short of the Scottish record. His last attempt at 6ft. 10in. was close enough to bring from the crowd the sort of response they reserved for a full-blooded shot against the crossbar.
In November 1975, a crowd of over 55000 for the Celtic v Rangers match watched Peter Hoffmann beating Paul Forbes in an invitation 500 metres race at Celtic Park, with England's Alan Pascoe coming in last place of the six runners. Scotland v England international matches often had invitation races put on to entertain the crowds.
In the 1980s, Angela Bridgeman and Sandra Whittaker ran at Celtic Park to get them used to running in front of a big crowd as preparation for the Olympics. As Sandra recalls: "it was supposed to be a jog around during half time to get used to a large crowd – never ran as fast in our lives, wasn't a competition, we were dressed in our red, white and blue GB tracksuits. Went down really well!"
The changes in football grounds, with most now closer to the pitch and the full track circuit not available has seen the demise of athletics events at football grounds. However, in 2014, Hampden Park was resurrected as an athletics stadium to host the Commonwealth Games. The re-vamped stadium played host to the Scottish Schools Championships, the Glasgow Grand Prix and the Commonwealth Games.
27 of the current Scottish all-comers' records were set that year at Hampden Park, 8 Scottish native records and one national record. Athletes from around the world, from United States and Canada, Jamaica, Grenada and Puerto Rico, Ethiopia, Kenya and Nigeria, all now grace the Scottish record lists.
It may be the last time a football ground is used for the purpose but, if so, what a fitting end to the relationship that athletics and football have had.

This open blazer will add a modern feel to your office outfit with its loose and boxy fit and tailored collar. Featuring pockets and 3/4 sleeves, it is great to refresh your spring wardrobe.
I love this jacket with the new pants I bought that have matching stripe down the side (same colour). It's unstructured but more formal than a cardigan for work. It does get a little wrinkly though so you have to steam it.
I gave myself a gift prior to Mother's Day.
I haven't worn it yet but hopefully when I go out on Mother's Day it will be warm enough so I can show my family what I bought myself.
I love the pink color, style and cut of this blazer. I can wear it casual with jeans or dress it up for work. It fits over sized, so I would recommend sizing down.

Camplite has 5 models that weigh less than 3500 lbs. However we chose the 13QBB because it one of the bigger lightweight travel trailers in their line-up and we also like the way it looks. The camper trailer is considered ultra-light and has an all-aluminum construction. Insulation is block foam with Azdel composite wallboard throughout. The camper box itself measures 13 feet in length, 7 feet in width, and is 9 feet 6 inches with AC. The GVWR is 3,000 lbs.

The photo above shows the 2016 Airstream Sport another lightweight travel trailer under 3500 lbs. Let?s get one thing out of the way rather quickly. This trailer is light in weight but might not be so light on our wallet. As of the day of this article the MSRP was $44,383 which os rather high but not so high for a typical Airstream. We consider the Airstream Sport one of our Top Rated Travel Trailers but again it is expensive.
The Sport is described as an ultra-towable compact travel trailer. But don?t let the compact wording fool you. This little camper trailer has room for up to 4 people.
It does come in two floor plans with the bigger floor plan costing more.
The exterior length is 16? 4? the exterior width is 8? and exterior height with AC is 9? 3?.The Gross Vehicle Weight Rating or GVWR is 3,500 lbs.

FILE - Surgeons use the robot da Vinci to aid a hernia operation, at the University Hospital Geneva, in Geneva, Switzerland, Nov. 13, 2008.
Within five years, one in three U.S. surgeries — more than double current levels — is expected to be performed with robotic systems, with surgeons sitting at computer consoles guiding mechanical arms. Companies developing new robots also plan to expand their use in India, China and other emerging markets.
Robotic surgery has been long dominated by pioneer Intuitive Surgical Inc., which has more than 3,600 of its da Vinci machines in hospitals worldwide and said last week the number of procedures that used them jumped by 16 percent in the second quarter compared to a year earlier.
The anticipated future growth — and perceived weaknesses of the current generation of robots— is attracting deep-pocketed rivals, including Medtronic Inc. and a startup backed by Johnson & Johnson and Google. Developers of the next wave aim to make the robots less expensive, more nimble and capable of performing more types of procedures, company executives and surgeons told Reuters.
Device maker Medtronic has said it expects to launch its surgical robot before mid-2018 and will start in India. Others developing surgical robots include TransEnterix Inc. and Canada's Titan Medical Inc.

Read here. Because the IPCC is primarily a political organization pursuing a political/governance agenda, it has been myopically focused on greenhouse gases, specifically CO2. This institutional mania has resulted in major shortcomings for policymakers, as they continue to be woefully ignorant of critical aspects of non-CO2 climate science. An example of this ignorance is the lack of policy initiatives to protect and enhance natural surface environments, which are critical to moderating negative climate change impacts.

Let's begin by explaining how and when we first became aware of Star Wars.
What were everyone's feelings about Star Wars prior to the prequels?
So prior to The Force Awakens, where would you consider Star Wars on your personal pantheon of nerdiness?
It's #1, always. Nothing has ever come close for me.
Which is odd, though, because being a Star Wars nerd is like being the most basic, simple nerd ever. It's almost embarrassing because it's so obvious; it's like being a New York Yankees fan. But Star Wars has always been my favorite.
What do you believe makes Star Wars so special in general, and so special to you in particular?
One more thing before we wrap up. If there was one Star Wars moment that will stick with you forever, from a movie or from a game or a book or one of the TV shows, what is it?
无论是大arc还是小细节,剧情都有很多问题。至少我觉得没有Star Trek 11的一半好。JJA, the double crosser double crossed us!


FARO Technologies Inc, the world's most trusted source for 3D measurement, imaging, and realisation technology, announces the release of the new FARO Scanner Freestyle3D, an easy, intuitive device for use in Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC), Law Enforcement, and other industries.
The Freestyle3D is equipped with a Microsoft Surface™ tablet and offers unprecedented real-time visualization by allowing the user to view point cloud data as it is captured. The Freestyle3D scans to a distance of up to three (3) meters and captures up to 88K points per second with accuracy better than 1.5mm. The patent-pending, self-compensating optical system also allows users to start scanning immediately with no warm up time required.
"The Freestyle3D is the latest addition to the FARO 3D laser scanning portfolio and represents another step on our journey to democratize 3D scanning," stated Mr Jay Freeland, FARO's President and CEO. "Following the successful adoption of our Focus3D scanners for long-range scanning, we have developed a scanner that provides customers with the same intuitive feel and ease-of-use in a handheld device." The portability of Freestyle3D enables users to manoeuvre and scan in tight and hard-to-reach areas such as car interiors, under tables and behind objects making it ideal for crime scene data collection or architectural preservation and restoration activities. Memory-scan technology enables Freestyle3D users to pause scanning at any time and then resume data collection where they left off without the use of artificial targets.
The Freestyle3D can be employed as a standalone device to scan areas of interest, or used in concert with FARO's Focus3D X 130 / X 330 scanners. Point cloud data from all of these devices can be seamlessly integrated and shared with all of FARO's software visualization tools including FARO SCENE, WebShare Cloud, and FARO CAD Zone packages.
