The Stanley Show
Introduction: The Stanley Show Stanley Matthews turned matter-of-factly, his stare fixed to avoid eye contact. His expression, washed of emotion, accentuated the slightly sunken, careworn look that made him appear at least as old as his thirty-two years. Time had already gone to work on his hair. It was combed back and still dark but was in the first stages of retreat. In close-up, something seemed to shadow his features, a sadness possibly pleated in the corners of his mouth. No one could have guessed that here was a man at the soaring peak of his powers who had just brought a packed arena to a ferment of excitement. As Matthews turned, gently hitching the elastic of his loose- fitting shorts on to his hips, the sellout crowd of 75,000 at the Heysel Stadium in Brussels had started to applaud. Moments earlier, England’s outside-right had completed a run that even by his standards was exceptional, bewildering Belgium’s defence and electrifying the spectators. And that was not the end of this particular piece by Matthews on a pitch made treacherous by a violent cloudburst soon after kick-off. Having wrought havoc with the ball on the turf, he dipped his head, cocked his right boot and lifted the ball over the oncoming keeper. One reporter likened it to a golf shot, Matthews seizing a wedge and lofting The Wizard pages.indd 1 23/01/2014 11:15 2 jon henderson the ball in a meticulous arc. All that was left for Tom Finney to do to collect his second goal of the match was to deflect his header into an unguarded net.

View the Text of Geoff Maitland's Presidential Address
1 Chemical engineering matters everywhere - reflections on a journey from academe to industry, and back again Institution of Chemical Engineers Presidential Address, May 28th 2014 Professor Geoffrey Maitland FREng FIChemE 1. Introduction How did I come to be standing here? I think it was John Lennon who once observed that life is what happens when you are planning something else – I know exactly what he was talking about. For the last nine years I have been professor of energy engineering at Imperial College London, carrying out research with my students and colleagues, many of whom are here tonight, on a variety of topics right across the energy landscape, from clean fossil fuels to green algae as a source of renewable hydrogen. To explain how I came to this life of engineering and to be working on what I consider to be probably the most important challenge facing the world in this 21st Century, I want to take you all on a journey, which began in Stoke-on-Trent in the 1940’s, and tell you about some of the doors that opened up along the way. And I want to use this journey to comment on some of the challenges and opportunities for chemical engineers today and what I would like to achieve for the Institution and our profession as your President. 2. Early beginnings… a first taste of Engineering As Dylan Thomas said, “To begin at the beginning…” I was born in Stoke, the Potteries, so you will not be surprised to learn that my father worked in the pottery industry, at a company called Podmore and Sons.

La Nueva Vieja Escuela Tony Pulis
CLUBPERARNAU P 44 TONY PULIS LA NUEVA VIEJA ESCUELA Agustín Galán La figura de Tony Pulis es una de las más veneradas dentro de la Premier League actual. Su apariencia y sus maneras de la vieja escuela lo llevan siempre a banquillos en los que la prioridad es la permanencia y los presupuestos son tan ajustados que no parecen pertenecer a la competición en la que se baten récords de traspasos cada verano. Con todas estas limitaciones externas, el galés se ha convertido en un especialista en sacar jugo a sus plantillas, como se ha vuelto a demostrar una vez más con un destacado West Brom, que terminó el curso 2016-17 en una desahogada décima posición.

“Dropping the Ball”: the Understudied Nexus of Sports and Politics
The Understudied Nexus of Sports and Politics “Dropping the Ball”: The Understudied Nexus of Sports and Politics Thomas Gift1 (email: [email protected]) University College London Andrew Miner Harvard University From the Roman Colosseum to Wimbledon Stadium, the Olympics to the Super Bowl, sports have always played a central role in societies. With so much at stake—money, pride, power (and occasionally even fun)—sports are undeniably political. Yet despite this recognition, political scientists and policy scholars devote little attention to the study of sports, especially compared to other disciplines like business, law, and economics. We offer reasons for this void and suggest how political scientists can begin to fill it. In our view, the nexus between sports and politics is not only a vital topic of study on its own, but it can also provide a lens through which to examine—and test—broader questions in the discipline. We propose how scholars can think more systematically about the interaction of politics and sports and leverage the distinctive qualities of sports to improve causal identification across a range of issue areas and subfields in political science and policy studies. Keywords: Sport and Politics, Sports and Policy, Political Science Research, Political Studies Subfields, Review Article, Sport and Media, Sport and International Affairs. Desde el Coliseo romano hasta el Estadio de Wimbledon, los Juegos Olímpicos y el Super Bowl, los deportes siempre han jugado un papel central en las sociedades. Con tanto en juego—dinero, el orgullo, el poder (y ocasionalmente incluso algo de diversión)—los deportes son innegablemente políticos.
