  • The Oxford Dictionary of New Words: a Popular Guide to Words in the News
    The Oxford Dictionary of New Words: A popular guide to words in the news PREFACE Preface This is the first dictionary entirely devoted to new words and meanings to have been published by the Oxford University Press. It follows in the tradition of the Supplement to the Oxford English Dictionary in attempting to record the history of some recent additions to the language, but, unlike the Supplement, it is necessarily very selective in the words, phrases, and meanings whose stories it sets out to tell and it stands as an independent work, unrelated (except in the resources it draws upon) to the Oxford English Dictionary. The aim of the Oxford Dictionary of New Words is to provide an informative and readable guide to about two thousand high-profile words and phrases which have been in the news during the past decade; rather than simply defining these words (as dictionaries of new words have tended to do in the past), it also explains their derivation and the events which brought them to prominence, illustrated by examples of their use in journalism and fiction. In order to do this, it draws on the published and unpublished resources of the Oxford English Dictionary, the research that is routinely carried out in preparing new entries for that work, and the word-files and databases of the Oxford Dictionary Department. What is a new word? This, of course, is a question which can never be answered satisfactorily, any more than one can answer the question "How long is a piece of string?" It is a commonplace to point out that the language is a constantly changing resource, growing in some areas and shrinking in others from day to day.

  • ICOHTEC NEWSLETTER No 159 January 2019
    ICOHTEC NEWSLETTER o N 159 January 2019 www.icohtec.org Lancia Rally 037 - Heart, Design, Project. "We achieved our most outstanding results with the Lancia Fulvia HF, Lancia Stratos, and the Fiat 131 Rally. But, in 1982, we will have to face a substantial rules changing and our programs have been revolutionised. We will race beginning from the month of April with the new Lancia Rally 037, as soon as it will be homologated, after the production of the two hundred samples prescribed by the new FIA GROUP B regulations ". This was December 14th, 1981, and Cesare Fiorio, manager of the Fiat Group's Competitions Activities announced the birth of the new weapon of the Fiat group for rallies: the Lancia Rally 037. A new car, mechanically different from the predecessors, built, conceived and projected according to the new Group B FIA Regulation (http://www.lanciarally037.com/progetto/progetto-regol-B.htm). The project developed thanks to the close collaboration among Lancia, Abarth and Pininfarina. The Lancia Rally 037 was made of a ruggedness structure that unites lightness and sturdiness, giving exceptional safety levels. Aggressive and refined, the Rally 037 was a sport thoroughbred with a "heart" of 2 litres, 16 valves, four cylinders, supercharged volumex compressor and central view mounted engine, a characteristic used until then only for few cars. Very powerful for the times, with its 205 Bhp it was able to easily overcome the 220 Km/h and to accelerate from 0 to 100 Km/h in less than seven seconds. The Rally 037 was both an aggressive and soft body-lines car, able to confer an aerodynamic load to create an effective aerodynamic lift to avoiding set-up variations at the high speeds.

  • Perceptions of Staffriding in Post-Apartheid South Africa: the Lethal Thrill of Speed Or the Masculine Performance of a Painful Past?

Perceptions of Staffriding in Post‐Apartheid South Africa: The Lethal Thrill of Speed or the Masculine Performance of a Painful Past? JOURNAL OF PSYCHOLOGY IN AFRICA , 20(4):581–590 Perceptions of Staffriding in Post-Apartheid South Africa: The Lethal Thrill of Speed or the Masculine Performance of a Painful Past? Dimakatso Sedite University of South Africa Brett Bowman University of the Witwatersrand Lindsay Clowes University of the Western Cape Address correspondence to Dimakatso Sedite, Save the Children, PO Box 14038, Hatfield, 0028, Pretoria, South Africa; S taffriding, or train surfing, involves taking life threatening physical risks by moving around the outside of moving trains. In aiming to better understand this risky practice, this small scale qualitative study used three semi-structured interviews and three focus discussions to understand perceptions of train surfing in South Africa’s Gauteng province. Semi-structured interviews comprised general station staff (n=2), and a station manager (n=1). The first two focus group discussions held were with ticket marshals (n= 6 per group, with a total of 12), and the last focus group discussion was with commuters (n=4), security personnel (n=6), and a station manager (n=1). Findings revealed that the majority of staffriders were perceived to be young, urban, black boys/men attending suburban schools. Tracing these identity co-ordinates against possible configurations of masculinity, we argue that train surfing represents a particular performance of risky, heteronormative masculinity forged within and against the historical, political and economic legacies that contoured apartheid versions of ‘black’ manhood.

This thesis takes the case of the United States' oldest subway system-Boston's T-and explores how and why its spaces and regulations over their appropriate use have changed over time in response to public perceptions, political battles, and broader social forces.
