  • The Keystone State's Official Boating Magazine I
    4., • The Keystone State's Official Boating Magazine i Too often a weekend outing turns to tragedy because a well- meaning father or friend decides to take "all the kids" for a boat ride, or several fishing buddies go out in a small flat- bottomed boat. In a great number of boating accidents it is found that the very simplest safety precautions were ignored. Lack of PFDs and overloading frequently set the stage for boating fatalities. Sadly, our larger group of boaters frequently overlooks the problem of boating safety. Boaters in this broad group are owners of small boats, often sportsmen. This is not to say that most of these folks are not safe boaters, but the figures show that sportsmen in this group in Pennsylvania regularly head the list of boating fatalities. There are more of them on the waterways and they probably make more frequent trips afloat than others. Thus, on a per capita or per-hour-of-boating basis, they may not actually deserve the top spot on the fatality list. Still, this reasoning does not save lives and that is what is WHO HAS BOATING important. ACCIDENTS? Most boating accidents happen in what is generally regarded as nice weather. Many tragedies happen on clear, warm days with light or no wind. However, almost half of all accidents involving fatalities occur in water less than 60 degrees. A great percentage of these fatal accidents involved individuals fishing or hunting from a john boat, canoe, or some other small craft. Not surprising is that victims of this type of boating accident die not because of the impact of the collision or the burns of a fire or explosion, but because they drown.

Race organizers were seeking ways to reinvigorate interest in what they see as a floundering – if not sinking – sport. A self-administered survey was distributed at the race with those completing it having a chance to win a souvenir shirt from the races.

  • Those Restless Little Boats on the Uneasiness of Japanese Power-Boat Gamblers
    Course No. 3507/3508 Contemporary Japanese Culture and Society Lecture No. 15 Gambling ギャンブル・賭博 GAMBLING … a national obession. Gambling fascinates, because it is a dramatized model of life. As people make their way through life, they have to make countless decisions, big and small, life-changing and trivial. In gambling, those decisions are reduced to a single type – an attempt to predict the outcome of an event. Real-life decisions often have no clear outcome; few that can clearly be called right or wrong, many that fall in the grey zone where the outcome is unclear, unimportant, or unknown. Gambling decisions have a clear outcome in success or failure: it is a black and white world where the grey of everyday life is left behind. As a simplified and dramatized model of life, gambling fascinates the social scientist as well as the gambler himself. Can the decisions made by the gambler offer us a short-cut to understanding the character of the individual, and perhaps even the collective? Gambling by its nature generates concrete, quantitative data. Do people reveal their inner character through their gambling behavior, or are they different people when gambling? In this paper I will consider these issues in relation to gambling on powerboat races (kyōtei) in Japan. Part 1: Institutional framework Gambling is supposed to be illegal in Japan, under article 23 of the Penal Code, which prescribes up to three years with hard labor for any “habitual gambler,” and three months to five years with hard labor for anyone running a gambling establishment. Gambling is unambiguously defined as both immoral and illegal.

  • Vision Implementation Engagement Results Current to May 3, 2021 at 10:45 Am
    Vision Implementation Engagement Results Current to May 3, 2021 at 10:45 am Introduction As the county’s population increases and becomes more racially, ethnically, and linguistically diverse, gaps are increasing between users and the recreational facilities and services that Parks & Recreation offers. To meet changing community needs and interests, Parks & Recreation developed a new vision for its parks and recreation system: A dynamic, community-centered system that provides opportunities for our ever-changing community to engage with inclusive and welcoming parks and recreation sites and programming. To help realize this vision, stakeholders were asked to provide input and ideas that will help shape budgeting, planning and community engagement efforts over the next decade. Below is a running compilation of results from various virtual and online engagements beginning January 26, 2021. Learn more on the project website. Compilation and Navigation This compilation combines results from live/virtual and online survey engagements, totaling approximately 668 to date. Over the course of this engagement some questions were refined or merged and results were combined to include all results. Results are presented alphabetically by question and generally remain as written by the contributor or documented by a facilitator. Minor edits have been made to correct obvious spelling or punctuation errors that affect clarity, remove vulgar words and NA / none / nothing responses where appropriate, or protect privacy; and if a survey respondent copied the same response for all or multiple questions, only the first was retained. Word clouds were generated via wordart.com. All engagement opportunities included information about the Parks & Recreation system through this or a slightly shorter video, and began with this statement: Imagine it's five years from now and Parks and Recreation is making great progress on this vision.

  • I the Biomechanics of Dragon Boat Paddling by Joseph Alexander Gomory a Thesis Submitted in Fulfilment of the Requirements for T
    The Biomechanics of Dragon Boat Paddling By Joseph Alexander Gomory A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science Principal Supervisor: Dr Kevin Ball Associate Supervisor: Dr Simon Taylor College of Sport & Exercise Science Institute for Health and Sport Victoria University 2018 i Abstract In dragon boat racing, boat speed is generated by paddle propulsion produced by human movement. However at the fundamental level it is the interaction of the paddle with water that produces the forces generating boat speed. Literature on the biomechanics of paddle propulsion is sparse and is concerned predominantly with human movement and not with the fundamentals of paddling. This thesis examines the biomechanics of dragon boat paddling from the perspective of the paddle. Kinetic and kinematic paddle data were collected sequentially for each test participant from two dragon boat crews via 30 s maximum effort paddling tests. A custom built strain-gauged paddle sampled the paddling forces at 200 Hz whilst a stationary video camera (Sony HDR-HC7) recorded a single representative racing paced paddling stroke at 200 Hz. A light flash recorded by the video camera and its trigger signal recorded by the force data collection system ensured synchronisation. Excel spreadsheets converted the data into kinetic and kinematic paddle parameters for each study. Study one operationalised a qualitative coaching model for teaching paddlers a good dragon boat paddling stroke and produced strong support for the coaching model via a statistical comparison of more skilled paddlers with paddlers less skilled. More skilled paddlers produced significant superior results for paddle reach at water contact, rate of force development on water entry, maximum paddle force, drive impulse and drive impulse rate, force rate reduction at paddle exit and paddle impulse during recovery.
