Catlins Ranges

The Catlins Ranges are a series of rugged, roughly parallel hill ranges in the southeastern corner of New Zealand's South Island. 

The Catlins Ranges take their name from the name given to this part of the country - the Catlins. The ranges lie mostly in Otago, although their western extremes lie in Southland Region. The original land purchaser was whaling captain Edward Cattlin (sometimes spelt Catlin). He purchased an extensive block of land along Catlins River on 15 February 1840 from Kāi Tahu chief Hone Tuhawaiki (also known as "Bloody Jack") for muskets and £30 (roughly NZ$3000 in 2005 dollars). However, New Zealand's land commissioners declined to endorse the purchase.

There are four distinct ranges: the small Rata and Beresford Ranges in the northeast, the Maclennan Range in the southwest, and the Forest Range, which can be considered as an extension of the Maclennan Range. Each of these ranges is oriented along a northwest-southeast axis. The ranges are separated by the valleys of the Catlins and Tahakopa Rivers. Inland, close to the watersheds of these rivers, the boundaries between the ranges become indistinct, part of the reason why they are often grouped together under the one name.

The Maclennan Range is the largest of the ranges in terms of length, being some 25 km (15 mi) in length, but most of the highest hills are found inland in the area where the ranges are not easily differentiated. The highest point in the Catlins Ranges is the 720 m (2361 ft) summit of Mt. Pye, which is located 25 km (40 mi) north-northeast of Waikawa. Other prominent peaks include Mt Rosebery (719 m; 2359 ft), Ajax Hill (698 m; 2290 ft), Catlins Cone (698 m; 2290 ft), and Mt Tautuku (691 m; 2266 ft).

Enterprise Mill

The Enterprise Mill is a historical residential and office complex along the Augusta Canal in Augusta, Georgia. Enterprise is located at the corner of Greene Street and 15th Street.

Revitalization
Enterprise Mill is one of the city's prime historic landmarks. In 1983, Graniteville Company shut down the facility and closed. During the mid and late 1980s, the city originally planned to demolish the aging building at the time, which lasted for 10 years,  but city officials later wanted to redevelop the building. A major renovation took place in 1995 as part of the downtown redevelopment. The building remained vacant for another 3 years until in 1998, when developers re-purposed the building into offices and lofts. It is one of the perfect examples of redevelopment in a decaying urban area.

History
Enterprise Mill was developed by James L. Coleman in 1845 and the building opened in 1848 as a flour mill.  Originally, Coleman wanted to build it on his plantation, but the city council of Augusta granted a fund to build a canal to supply power, which would ultimately be the creation of the Augusta Canal. Between 1872 and 1875, the Augusta Canal was enlarged and several industrialists came to the area to build facilities around the canal. Much of the original mill, built in grey granite brick, is still standing today, though the bulk of what is recognizable today as the Enterprise Mill was built in red brick in 1877. Like all the great mills of Augusta, it is built on the Augusta Canal. In 1923 the Graniteville Company acquired the mill and eventually added the large red sign bearing the company name atop the structure. The sign still stands today and is most noticeable at night when it glows bright red.

Though for most of its existence the mill was used for various manufacturing ventures, in 1983 the mill ceased operations and closed its doors. For many years it was assumed that the structure would be demolished, but in the mid-1990s the Mill underwent a massive overhaul and was converted into apartments and retail and office spaces. The Enterprise Mill stands as today as an example of the revitalization of downtown Augusta that began in the 1990s.

Jack's Bay

Jack's Bay is a small settlement in The Catlins, an area on the southeastern corner of the South Island of New Zealand. It is located six kilometres southwest of Owaka, close to the mouth of the Catlins River. A popular holiday spot with a seasonal population, there are numerous cribs (holiday homes) at the settlement. Jack's Bay is noted for a large blowhole, known as Jack's Blowhole, a 55-metre-deep blowhole that formed when part of a sea cavern's roof collapsed. The blowhole is 200 metres from the sea.

The bay, blowhole and nearby Tuhawaiki Island (sometimes called Jack's Island) are all named after Hone Tūhawaiki (also known as Bloody Jack), a paramount chief of Kai Tahu. After losing a battle with one of Te Rauparaha's scouting parties at Cannibal Bay, he was trapped with his men on False Island. Tūhawaiki escaped by leaping from the cliffs into the sea and swimming eight kilometres to Tuhawaiki Island.

Sterane

Steranes constitute a class of tetracyclic triterpanes derived from steroids or sterols via diagenetic and catagenetic degradation, such as hydrogenation. They are found in sediments and sedimentary rocks in nature. Steranes are derivatives of gonane, the steroid nucleus which is also called "cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene". They have an androstane skeleton with a side chain at carbon C-17. The sterane structure constitutes the core of all sterols. Steranes are widely used as biomarkers for the presence of eukaryotes in past ecosystems because steroids are nearly exclusively produced by eukaryotes. In particular, cholestanes are diagenetic products of cholesterol in animals, while stigmastanes are diagenetic products of stigmasterols in algae and land plants. However, some bacteria are now known to produce sterols and it is inferred that the ultimate origin of sterol biosynthesis is in bacteria. Sterols are produced via protosterols that are direct cyclization compounds of squalene by the catalysis of oxidosqualene cyclase. All known sterols in eukaryotes are enzymatically extensively modified  from protosterols, while organisms that only produce protosterols are not known. The oldest record of modified steranes are in sedimentary rocks deposited ca. 720–820 million years ago. In contrast, diagenetic products of protosterols (called protostanes and cyclosteranes) are widely distributed in older Proterozoic rocks and imply the presence of extinct proto-eukaryotes and/or sterol-producing bacteria before the evolution of crown-group eukaryotes.

Steranes may be rearranged to diasteranes during diagenesis (C-27 to C-30, rearrangement at C-18 and C-19, no R at C-24). Oils from clastic source rocks tend to be rich in diasteranes.

Cholesterol and its derivatives (such as progesterone, aldosterone, cortisol, and testosterone), are common examples of compounds with the cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene nucleus.

Nathan Wiley

Nathan Wiley (born ) is a musician and singer from Summerside, Prince Edward Island, Canada, whose music blends modern rock and blues.

History
Wiley started out as a guitarist in a handful of local independent projects, including Electric Deadhead, The Plan, Space Opera and Evil Agents.  He was also a member of The Tubetracks during a brief period when he lived in British Columbia.  His unique guitar style always contributed to the sound of the groups he worked with, most notably his adept skill at surf music, being heavily influenced by Dick Dale, among others.  During his involvement in these groups, he did not do any vocal work, with the exception of a few songs from Space Opera, which mostly consisted of talking or yelling, but no actual singing.

Solo
In 2002, he released his first solo project, Bottom Dollar.  Not only was it his first solo effort, but it was a fully professionally produced CD, as opposed to the low-tech cassettes produced by all of his previous projects.  While the surf influence wasn't evident, his talents as a singer and songwriter were startling, after so many years of being known as primarily a lead guitarist rather than a frontman.  Some media reviews drew a comparison to Tom Waits, but most fans seem to agree that, while some of the lyrics are similar to Waits' style, a closer comparison in lyric style would be Bob Dylan.

Bottom Dollar gained much critical acclaim: Wiley won Definitely Not the Opera'''s Big Break Contest in 2002, and then won awards from the East Coast Music Association and SOCAN. Tracks from the album received repeated airplay on CBC Radio.  The video for the lead single "Bottom Dollar Baby" was played in rotation on the Canadian music station MuchMoreMusic, and remained in their Top 40 for several weeks. The album was released through the indie-friendly group Sonic, and was eventually picked up for distribution by Warner Bros. Records.

The follow-up album High Low was released in 2004, and won him the Alternative Artist of the Year award from the East Coast Music Association.

In 2007, Wiley released his third album The City Destroyed Me.

Band

His band consists of his uncles Dale DesRoches (drums) and Tom DesRoches (bass). Occasionally James Phillips is also featured on lead guitar. Together these musicians also perform as Sweetheart Jim and the Brothers Grim, performing original material written by Phillips as well as cover songs.

Glenomaru

Glenomaru is a small settlement in The Catlins, an area of the southern South Island of New Zealand. It is located 10 kilometres north of Owaka on the main road to Balclutha.  On 7 July 1891, a branch line railway from the Main South Line in Balclutha was opened to Glenomaru, and the village remained the terminus of the line until it was extended to Tahora on 16 December 1895.  This line ultimately terminated in Tahakopa and was known as the Catlins River Branch.  It closed on 27 February 1971 and a sawmill now exists on the site of Glenomaru station, though some of the railway's old formation can be seen in the surrounding area and the Hunts Road tunnel is in the vicinity and can be walked.

Joint Replacement Aircraft

The Joint Replacement Aircraft (JRA) was a program initiated by the US Defense Department project to build a common utility aircraft that would replace the UH-1N Twin Huey and AH-1 SuperCobra in service with the United States Marine Corps.

In August 1995, the Secretary of the Navy authorized the Marine Corps to upgrade its utility and attack helicopters as a bridge until the Joint Replacement Aircraft was available in 2020. The Marine Corps hoped to replace the UH-1N and AH-1W with the JRA by 2015, and a number of designs for the JRA were explored, including a tiltrotor.

Southern California School Band and Orchestra Association

The Southern California School Band and Orchestra Association (SCSBOA) provides a number of services for elementary through college level instrumental music groups in Southern California, including providing clinics for educators and students and hosting festivals for soloists and ensembles, including marching band competitions.

Honor ensembles 
The SCSBOA honor groups for elementary through high school students are prestigious music groups which students audition for. They include the band, string orchestra, full orchestra, and jazz band. Students accepted into the groups often demonstrate their expertise in their instruments as well as their motivation to take music to a higher degree. Numerous new musical works have been commissioned for these honor groups over the years to include Double Helix which was published by CPP Belwin.

Festivals 
The festivals run by the organization rate groups on how well they play. Each group plays three prepared pieces and then sightreads a piece that is one level below those they prepared. For many school's music groups, these festivals are long-awaited and practiced for.

Field band 
The field band competitions are an extensive number of parade and field show competitions. SCSBOA Adjudicators are selected based on their prior experience in competition with their own groups, and are peers to the directors of the competing groups.

Parade competitions are typically hosted by cities or communities, but may be hosted by a school band. Specialized parades, called Band Reviews, consist of a parade of only bands and possibly led by a few dignitaries in automobiles. Parade Bands are judged in the categories of Band, Drill Team, Auxiliary, and Drum Major. Parades and Band Reviews may classify competing bands based on total school enrollment, size of the band, or by ranking of the band's scores from competitions in the previous season. The method of classification is determined by the event chairman.

The SCSBOA field show circuit is the most popular in Southern California. Field show competitions are typically hosted by a high school band, inviting other schools to attend. Although there is no rule, hosts at SCSBOA field show competitions typically do not compete in their own competition. Field show bands are judged in the categories of Band, Percussion, and Auxiliary, assigned a Classification based on the total number of musicians performing. Many bands strive to be selected for the SCSBOA Field Show Championships, held the mid-November of each year. Throughout the season, the bands are scored and the 12 top-scoring bands in each class, based on the total of their top three scores of the season, are eligible to compete in SCSBOA Field Championships.

Past field band champions

Power walking

Power walking or speed walking is the act of walking with a speed at the upper end of the natural range for the walking gait, typically 7 to 9 km/h (4.5 to 5.5 mph). To qualify as power walking as opposed to jogging or running, at least one foot must be in contact with the ground at all times (see walking for a formal definition).

History and technique

In 1999, the Berlin Marathon included a Power Walking division. 

Power walking is often confused with racewalking.

Power walking techniques involve the following:
 The walker must walk straight
 The walker must walk doing an alternating movement of feet and arms
 The walker must walk with one foot in permanent contact with the ground
 The leading leg must be bent
 Each advancing foot strike must be heel to toe at all times
 The walker must walk not doing an exaggerated swivel to the hip
 The arms spread completely from the elbows and these move back

Competitions and world records
Competitions are held for power walking competitions, with world records held in categories including 5 km, 10 km, half marathon, 30 km, marathon, and multiday distances.

Health and fitness

Power walking has been recommended by health experts such as Kenneth H. Cooper as an alternative to jogging for a low-to-moderate exercise regime, for instance 60–80% of maximum heart rate (HRmax). At the upper range, walking and jogging are almost equally efficient, and the walking gait gives significantly less impact to the joints.

Early bodybuilding champion Steve Reeves was an early advocate and wrote the book Powerwalking about his experiences with it and its health benefits. 

A 2021 study, where post coronary angioplasty patients were introduced power walking based on their ejection fraction, VO2 max calculation, heart rate monitoring and pedometer counts. Those participants in power walking group benefited significantly on quality of life and various physiological parameters.

Physiologically, a normal adult walking at a speed of 4–6 km/h has the least aerobic requirement and low exercise intensity. Running is preferred over walking at a speed equal to or greater than 8 km/h, since running at a higher speed consumes less oxygen than walking. When running is a significant problem, particularly in patients with post-coronary angioplasty with or without stents, power walking was recommended. Power walking with 6-8 km/h speed, patients can achieve the benefits of running i.e., significant improvement in V02 Max., maximal aerobic capacity. To put simply power walking is augmented with speed of walking.

Luri, Haute-Corse

Luri is a commune of the Haute-Corse department of France on the island of Corsica.

Location

Luri is in the north of the Cap Corse peninsula.
It is crossed from west to east by the Luri, a stream that empties into the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Villages include Spergane, Luri, Campo and Santa Severa.

History
Luri has been tentatively identified as the Lurinum of Ptolemy both by similarity of name and because of Castellu di Luri, a Roman-style fortification occupied from the third century BC to the 1st century AD. It was in the territory of Ptolemy's tribe, Vanacini, who according to a bronze inscription recording a letter from the emperor Vespasian, had their own senate and magistrates and were therefore probably semi-autonomous. They may have occupied the fort themselves.

Baseball at the Pan American Games

The baseball tournament at the Pan American Games has long been considered to be one of the premier international baseball events in the world, even higher than the Olympic Games. This is because the level of competition is higher than in the Olympics, where only two teams from the Americas traditionally were permitted to qualify. Cuba has dominated the tournament since its inception. Cubans field their strongest players, while the Americans sent college players, as the schedule does not allow MLB players to participate. In 2013, a women's tournament was added to the program, effective with the 2015 Games. A total of seven men and five women's teams competed in each tournament respectively. In 2019, the women's tournament was not held, while the men's tournament shrank to 8 teams.

Tantalus Provincial Park

Tantalus Provincial Park is a provincial park located in the Tantalus Range overlooking Squamish Valley in British Columbia, Canada. It was established on December 19, 1998 to protect a large area of pristine alpine wilderness.

History
The mountains where the park now resides have been the home of the Squamish First Nation since time immemorial.

In 1988, the Lake Lovely Water Recreation Area was established for the purpose of protecting the alpine lake area and for providing mountaineering opportunities in the Tantalus Range. The recreation area was greatly expanded and upgraded to a Class A Park on December 19, 1998.

Geography
The provincial park is located west of the Squamish River and is entirely within Squamish-Lillooet Regional District.

Tudyah Lake Provincial Park

Tudyah Lake Provincial Park is a provincial park in British Columbia, Canada.  The park is approximately 56 km south of Mackenzie, BC on Highway 97.

On the south shore of Tudyah Lake between the highway and the Pack River, Tudyah Lake Provincial Park offers lake and river oriented recreation activities, as well as a setting for camping and picnicking, all easily accessible to highway travellers and local residents. The rolling forest covered hills surrounding Tudyah Lake are characteristic of the Nechako Plateau natural landscape, and within the park, the shoreline and forested areas encourage nature appreciation. Use of the Pack River system as an early trading route adds historical interest and opportunities for interpretation in this park.

Topography within this park varies only slightly with elevations ranging from approximately 686 m to 672 m at the lake. Hydrologic features include Tudyah Lake on the north park boundary, the Pack River and an arm of backwater on the west boundary, and Bear Creek near the eastern boundary.

The park is on the former site of the Melville Lodge as well as a now-abandoned airstrip. This resort provided cabins, camping and boat launch facilities and was popular with Prince George and Mackenzie residents. In 1974, BC Hydro purchased this property in the reservoir basin because of the possible effect of the Williston Reservoir at maximum full pool flooding. Public demand for maintaining recreational opportunities of this area was so strong that BC Hydro contracted a caretaker to maintain the campground, picnic area and boat launch. During this time public pressure for park development at this site grew and following considerable negotiations, a Provincial Park was established in August, 1981.

Tudyah Lake supports a recreational fishery with Rainbow Trout and Dolly Varden as the popular sport species. Bear Creek has been noted as an important spawning area for trout.

Tweedsmuir North Provincial Park and Protected Area

Tweedsmuir North Provincial Park and Protected Area is a provincial park in British Columbia, Canada, which along with Tweedsmuir South Provincial Park and Entiako Provincial Park were once part of Tweedsmuir Provincial Park, then B. C.'s largest park,  located in the Coast Range.

History
Tweedsmuir gained park status in 1938 as the earliest large park established under the BC Parks protected areas system. Tweedsmuir North Provincial Park and Protected Area was re-designated a park and protected area as the latter classification allows resource extraction and other economic activities not permitted in full park designations. Entiako Provincial Park and Protected Area is located on the south flank of the Nechako River watercourse.

Geography
The northern portion of the park is a wilderness area. Access is possible via boat, using Ootsa and Whitesail Lakes. The Park is between Burns Lake and Houston. BC Parks provides this explanation: "To get from Chikamin Bay on Whitesail Lake to St. Thomas Bay on Eutsuk Lake in Tweedsmuir Provincial Park, boaters are required to winch their boats over a 600 metre rail portage. Boats to about 7 metres in length can be portaged." Two other common access points are recommended, and maps are provided on the BC Parks web site: Little Andrews Bay Provincial Park and Wistaria Provincial Park. Burns Lake, B.C. is considered to be the northern gateway for fly-in tours for sightseeing, hunting and fishing; these are offered by local outfitters in the town.

Ecology
The park is considered to be an almost pristine mountain wilderness. There are many kinds of large mammals in the park including grizzly bears, black bears, wolves, mountain lions, wolverines, boreal woodland caribou, moose, mountain goats and hoary marmots.

The Tweedsmuir-Entiako woodland caribou herd numbered about 500 caribou in 1993. Their range extends to throughout northern Tweedsmuir Park in alpine and forested habitat in the summer and to the mouth of the Entiako River where the migrates in late winter. By the early 1990s the herd was already declining. Research was undertaken to manage the herd as logging activities were proposed in the area near their winter range. In southern and central B.C. most of the caribou herds "had significantly declined in numbers and in range." By 1985 Stevenson and Hatler had designated the maintenance of Tweedsmuir-Entiako caribou winter range in the land management report as high priority.

Tyhee Lake Provincial Park

Tyhee Lake Provincial Park is a provincial park in British Columbia, Canada, located near the town of Smithers in the Bulkley Valley.

History
On Trutch's 1871 map, it was labelled "McLean's Lake", but "Aldermere Lake" elsewhere. Aldermere was on the hill above Telkwa. The lake became known as "Tyee Lake", from the Chinook word, originally pronounced Die-yeeh, meaning "chief". The traditional name of the lake is Too-Kyoh-buhn, pronounced toh-kyoh-bun, meaning Big Water Lake. The lake was Station 11 on the Collins Overland Telegraph. Renamed "Maclure Lake" after a telegraph surveyor, this name was used as late as 1978. Since locals continued calling it Tyee, the name was officially changed to Tyhee, because Tyee had been assigned to a lake in the Cariboo.

Established on 11 April 1955, the 33-hectare Maclure Lake Park was renamed Tyhee Lake Park on 10 September 1981. On 19 May 2010, the area increased to approximately 39 hectares.

Toad River Hot Springs Provincial Park

Toad River Hot Springs Provincial Park is a provincial park in the north of British Columbia, Canada.  The hot springs are located on the lefthand bank of the Toad River, outside of the Racing River outflow. The area is rugged and remote, accessible only via hiking, riverboat, horseback, or helicopter. There is no actual bathing pool; visitors are advised to not attempt bathing, as heavy mud is a strong presence in the area. Entrance to this area is very difficult, with the crossing of private property being a likely factor, unless accessed by boat or air. Land access is most easily accomplished by horse or by hiking from the Stone Mountain Safaris parking lot. It is recommended that the lodge owners are contacted and made aware of any human presence in the area beforehand. They are very friendly and will always give advice as to how to traverse the area’s wilderness.

The park is part of the larger Muskwa-Kechika Management Area.
