In 1986 the effort became focused when the International Olympic Committee recognized squash and the World Squash Federation applied for inclusion in the 1992 Barcelona Games. Campaigns have occurred ever since, in particular for the Beijing 2008, London 2012 and Rio 2016, as well as for the next three upcoming Summer Games. SThe push for the Olympics, however, often overshadows squash’s inclusion in numerous other international multi-sport events, some that you might know well and others slightly more obscure. Squash will be featured this month in the quadrennial Pan Ameri- can Games in Lima, and also the Pacific Games in Samoa and the Island Games in Gibraltar. Later this year, there is the African Games in Morocco in August, and the Southeast Asian Games in Philippines and the South Asian Games in Nepal in December. Many thousands of squash players, from top PSA professionals to amateurs of all ages, play in these games, building friendships and adding to their home nation’s medal count. The exposure of squash to wider audiences is tremendous, with media attention in the host and participating nations. The facilities that get built are fabulous legacies, particularly for host cities that are slightly off the beaten squash track—for example, the courts in Cartagena that were built for the 2006 Central PHOTO: © R. -

Graphic Arts Center Publishing Co., Portland. Chapter 4. Save the Redwoods! Naturalists had explored the forests of the north coast region and some, including John Mur, were especially impressed by the extraordinary stand of redwoods alongside the South Fork of the Eel River at bull Creek and the nearby Dyerville Flat. These experts agreed that the coast redwood forest was at its magnificent best far to the north of San Francisco. Some authorities went so far as to say that the Bull Creek and Dyerville Flat area supported the most impressive and spectacular forest in the whole world…. In 1916 and 1917 several developments took place that would eventually have a profound impact on the north coast redwood region in general and the Bull Creek-Dyerville Flat area in particular. -
Dam Safety Requirements
PRETTY DAM SAFE 13 Pretty Dam Safe While dams have been an integral part of civilisation since its beginning, the technology of dam construction has only really come of age in the twentieth century. As with the gothic cathedrals that were ‘designed’ by trial and error, dam failures led to knowledge that could produce safe designs. ortunately, Queensland and the other parts of Australia have been almost entirely Ffree of catastrophic dam failures. In 1929, a mining dam in Tasmania failed during exceptionally high floods and 14 lives were lost, but there have been no other disasters. In other parts of the world, dam failures have resulted in tragic loss of life and extensive (and expensive) property damage. During the 1960s and ’70s, 50 world dams failed 1 with the loss of more than 5000 lives. However, it could be that in the Australian situation, to misquote the words often attributed to Thomas Jefferson, “The price of freedom is eternal surveillance”. The lack of failure is clearly due, at least in part, to good luck. When the first dams were built in Australia there was no understanding of the concept of uplift pressures on dams from water seeping into the foundations of the structure. The sciences of soil and rock mechanics barely existed until the 1950s. Methods of construction were primitive by comparison with modern times, employing little in the way of compaction machinery or quality control, and, most importantly, there were virtually no hydrologic data and spillways had to be designed by empirical methods with only the most rudimentary estimates of the floods that could pass through them. -
