Add to that the return of one of polo’s great forces, Ellerston – whose patron is James Packer, son of Kerry Packer, the late Australian media tycoon and polo enthusiast – to UK high goal for the first time since 2008, and expectations of a classic season have rarely been higher. Unusually, polo insiders have been loath to make predictions. Even the professionals chose to sit on the fence when contributing to the annual Polo Times predictions for the season. “So many teams and combinations have changed that it is difficult to know how it’s going to turn out,” says Max Routledge, the 21-year-old five- goal professional and one of the Eng- lish game’s rising stars.

  • Bike Polo Story
    FORewoRD The game of bicycle polo was conceived in 1891 and is a direct descendant of the very ancient game of horse polo which dates back to 600 BC, and the modern game of hardcourt bike polo - one of the world’s fastest growing urban sports is considered the edgier first cousin of the 19th century grass version. From its genesis in late 19th century Ireland through to its modern day incarnation, this book unravels the history of this fascinating and misunderstood sport. It charts key moments, explores the games pioneers and gets under the skin of some of today’s star exponents. And there are some surprises along the way… Before Hoy, Pendleton, Farah and Ennis cast a golden glow over London 2012, 104 years earlier, bike polo pedalled into the 1908 London Olympics as an exhibition sport. And it may surprise you to know that Princes; Phillip, Wills and Harry have all be known to ditch the horse in favour of the bike… This is the compelling and eventful story of the history of bike polo. Enjoy the journey… 1891 Bicycle Polo, a game of strenuous amusement is born... n 1891, having retired from racing – ‘ordinary’ and tricycle – the Irish cycling Ienthusiast Richard J McCready (hereafter referred to as ‘RJ’) set about inventing a game that would provide ‘strenuous amusement’ and a welcome diversion from editing his beloved Irish Cyclist. His invention? ‘Polo on Wheels’. Following the inaugural game at the Scalp in Co. Wicklow, Richard J McCready Cycling magazine observed the following: “the game of cycling polo promises to be immensely popular…and not at all so dangerous as would appear from the title.” Quick to show his hand was the mysterious Cosmo- Cyclo who wrote an enthusiastic letter published in Cycling stating that since the introduction of pneumatic tyres “cycle polo is not only possible but exciting and enjoyable too!” In Ireland, the sport rapidly gained momentum, with the wider racing fraternity quickly picking up on the benefits of a game that would efficiently hone “..the hands, the head and the eye..” of the racing man.

    WINNER TAKES ALLPolo player Hilario BY MICHELE MEYER | PHOTOGRAPHY BY DIEGO CAPPELLA Even while practicing alone, Hilario Ulloa performs the same fearless, focused Ulloa’s competitive moves that make him the Michael Jordan of the equine set. He’s ranked among the world’s top 10 polo players, and his confidence in the saddle hints at a history nature and equestrian steeped in horses. With his mallet behind his back, he leans far off his steed—at 40 miles per hour, no less. Somehow, he knows where the ball is and slams it home. prowess impress on the “I was practically born on horseback,” says Ulloa, offering a nonplussed expla- nation for his super-human skills. For those who know him best, it’s his drive to win field and in the stable that most sets the 34-year-old apart from his competitors. “Hilario’s very intense,” says fellow Argentine 10-goaler Guillermo “Sapo” Ca- set, who’s played with—and against—Ulloa since age 12. “He has to win, even if it’s PlayStation or ping-pong. He’s really, really competitive.” That tenacious pursuit earned Ulloa a 10-goal rank, the highest possible, in the U.S., his native Argentina, and England at age 30. He was only 24 when he became a 9-goaler. He’s played in Wellington for the past nine years, racking up triumphs such as the 2018 U.S. Polo Open Championship. 88 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | JANUARY 2020 89 Ulloa stables 25 horses in the U.S., 12 to 14 in England, and more than 100 in Argentina.

I didn’t really see him very much, hardly at all until the ‘80s and then I kind of reconnected with him in the ‘90s and we were social friends. I played golf with him.

  • Different Industries and Sectors of Singapore
    A COUNTRY STUDY AND REPORT AND COMBINED SUMMARY OF SEMESTER IV WORK ON Different Industries and Sectors of Singapore Submitted to Gujarat Technological University IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENT OF THE AWARD FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF BUSINESS ASMINISTRATION Submitted by ___________________________________________________________________________ ___ Marwadi Education Foundation’s Group of Institutions MBA PROGRAMME Affiliated to Gujarat Technological University Ahmedabad May, 2012 SUMMARY OF WORK DONE IN SEM-4 AVIATION IN SINGAPORE MEANING Aviation is the design, development, production, operation, and use of aircraft, especially heavier-than-air aircraft. Aviation is derived from avis, the Latin word for bird. HISTORY There are early legends of human flight such as the story of Icarus, and Jamshid in Persian myth, and later, somewhat more credible claims of short-distance human flights appear, such as the flying automaton of Archytas of Tarentum (428–347 BC), the winged flights of Abbas IbnFirnas (810–887), Eilmer of Malmesbury (11th century), and the hot-air Passarola of BartolomeuLourenço de Gusmão (1685– 1724). The modern age of aviation began with the first untethered human lighter-than-air flight on November 21, 1783, in a hot air balloon designed by the Montgolfier brothers. In 1799 Sir George Cayley set forth the concept of the modern airplane as a fixed- wing flying machine with separate systems for lift, propulsion, and control. Early dirigible developments included machine-powered propulsion (Henri Giffard, 1852), rigid frames (David Schwarz, 1896), and improved speed and maneuverability (Alberto Santos-Dumont, 1901). Great progress was made in the field of aviation during the 1920s and 1930s, such as Charles Lindbergh's solo transatlantic flight in 1927, and Charles Kingsford Smith's transpacific flight the following year.
