    PROFESSOR TIM NOAKES ON CHARACTER, SELF-BELIEF, AND THE SEARCH FOR PERFECTION Transcribed from Prof. Noakes’ presentation in Madison, Wisconsin, on Aug. 1, 2017: I have an admission to make: I've been a runner for 48 years, and today I became a CrossFitter for the first time. So, you know, if I can't lift my arms up you’ll understand. So, it was — it was really interesting to see the culture of your community, and it was quite — really exciting to see it, and I compliment you on what you're doing and what Greg has done for the world in the last few — last 10 or 15 years. It's a movement that has such potential that I hope that we will be able to grow it and extend it. And — and my wish would also be that some of the science would be able to come from you. That your own experiences could be in some way measured and interpreted as real evidence for the benefits of what Greg said: that we want physical activity and the right nutrition. And I just hope that we can do that. So, I'm going to talk today — a talk which I've evolved over the years, and it's about my own experiences and — and what you'll find, that I'm taking cause to Newcastle because a lot of the examples I use are of brilliant American athletic performances. And — and you may not know it because you live in America, but those of us who don't live in America, we see you as a nation of believers.

  • Leaders in the Civic Engagement Movement: South Africa October
    Leaders in the Civic Engagement Movement: South Africa Co-edited by Lorlene Hoyt and Amy Newcomb Rowe October signals the tenth edition of the expanded series and the first of three South African special editions in preparation for the #TNLC2014 to be held outside Cape Town in December 2014. This issue includes an introduction to South Africa and the University of Cape Town (UCT). Featured interviews include Dr. Max Price, Vice-Chancellor of UCT; Ms. Elli Yiannakaris, Director of the Raymond Ackerman Academy (RAA); and Ms. Samantha Mtinini, alumna of RAA and business owner. South Africa Located at the most southern tip of the African continent, the Republic of South Africa (RSA) is home to approximately 53 million people and several ethnic groups with 11 official languages. The Atlantic Ocean borders to the west, the Indian Ocean to the south and east, and Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Swaziland share the northern border. The independent kingdom of Lesotho is located in the eastern central plain and entirely enclosed by the Republic. The landscape is diverse with open savanna of the Eastern Transvaal, rolling sand dunes of the Kalahari Desert and high peaks of the Drakensberg Mountains.1 Bantu-speakers from the Xhosa and Zulu groups were the first people to settle South Africa as early as 1000 BC. They slowly mixed with other Khoisan groups creating a shared linguistic feature of click consonants. From 1200 AD, they established tribal leaders and built the region’s first economic trade that reached as far as the Arabian Gulf and China. The first Europeans to arrive were the Portuguese in 1488, but permanent white settlement did not begin until 1652 when the English and Dutch established new colonies near the Cape.

  • Clinical Research in Britain 1950–1980
    Wellcome Witnesses to Twentieth Century Medicine CLINICAL RESEARCH IN BRITAIN 1950–1980 A Witness Seminar held at the Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine, London, on 9 June 1998 Witness Seminar Transcript edited by L A Reynolds and E M Tansey Introduction by David Gordon Volume 7 – September 2000 CONTENTS Introduction David Gordon i Witness Seminars: Meetings and publications iii Transcript 1 Index 67 INTRODUCTION The British, it is said, are not revolutionary by nature. However, in the last century, we created two organizations that have revolutionized the possibility and reality of clinical research, with worldwide influence. The first was the formation of the Medical Research Council (MRC). The Medical Research Council was the successor of the Medical Research Committee, appointed in 1913 to administer funds provided under the National Health Insurance Act of 1911 (see note 49). While there may be doubt whether or not these funds were intended primarily for research into tuberculosis or for medical research more generally, we cannot doubt the boldness of the step. A government set aside money for medical research, rather than devoting the funds available for a medical problem solely to prevention, diagnosis and treatment. The second revolutionary step was the creation of the National Health Service. The National Health Service Act of 1946 gave Ministers powers not only to conduct research, but also to support the research work of others. The notion of a population- wide, compre h e n s i ve healthcare system, free to the patient at the point of consultation, and able to support the clinical infrastructure of research, was truly revolutionary, and might have been impossible were it not for the appetite for social change created by the Second World War.

    YOUR 2018 GUIDE IN PARTNERSHIP WITH: IN ASSOCIATION WITH: WITH GRATEFUL THANKS TO: video productions Message from the organisers You asked for more, and so the second Jewish Literary Festival (JLF) is here, with a programme that’s been deemed ‘quite remarkable’. We are proud and grateful to be a beneficiary this year of the United Communal Fund of the United Jewish Campaign (UJC), as this puts us firmly on the Jewish communal calendar in Cape Town. Private donors have again rallied to support us, and while they prefer to be anonymous, we offer our heartfelt thanks to them for giving so generously. The organisations which comprise the Gardens Community Centre not only provide the venue platform for the JLF but are valuable partners. Thanks to campus manager Joanne Benjamin for her vision in ensuring that the JLF goes from strength to strength. The Jacob Gitlin Library, our anchor, partnered with us once more, and we profess deep admiration for their ongoing commitment to the world of Jewish literature. Lester Hoffman and Lindy Diamond of the Cape Jewish Chronicle provided invaluable media support in the run-up to the festival as well as on the day, and we greatly value the collaboration. Darryl Cotton put up with website revisions and updates, while Lorraine de Villiers and Kyle Richards of Opechee Design Studio deserve a medal for their patience and creativity while handling our marketing material. Thanks to the ‘power’ women at C-below the Line and Sistas Act for pulling the event together, and to our volunteers-on-the-day who enable the smooth running of sessions.
