Tuesday When The Going Gets Tough! Congratulations are in order to all competitors and officials on a magnificent effort yesterday after Monday’s rain interruption threw this championship’s playing programme into disarray and turned Tuesday into a marathon. Mind you, dealing with adversity is nothing new to the people of this beautiful city, while the players responded accordingly with professionalism and patience to the point where everything is now back on schedule. As the qualifying stanza of the championship nears halfway there are five players undefeated; Australia’s Dylan Fisher in men’s section one and Shaun Scott representing New Zealand in section two; then there’s hot favourite Karen Murphy from Australia in women’s section one, along with two of the sport’s most enduring stars, Norfolk Island’s Carmen Anderson and Lorna Smith from Scotland in section two. All have five wins from five starts. Good judges are adamant that 19-year-old Fisher is the best young bowler in the game and his run into this coming weekend’s finals will be a great opportunity for spectators to savour his exquisite skills. But it won’t be a walk in the park for the young Melbourne star as he meets 1998 Commonwealth Games gold medallist Roy Garden from Zimbabwe first up this morning, while tomorrow’s high noon showdown with youthful Jersey champion Mal de Sousa will also be a ripper. Then, for good measure, Dylan has wily Irishman Ian McClure – a world and Commonwealth Games champion - to contend with after breakfast on Friday. Seductive stuff – make sure you’re here! Shaun Scott is flying the New Zealand banner with pride and distinction, while his surgical demolition of Guernsey’s Mat Le Ber, who will represent the tiny Channel Island at next year’s Glasgow Commonwealth Games, in yesterday’s fourth round has stamped his authority. However, the North East Valley gun has a date with destiny on Friday afternoon, when he meets reigning Games singles champion Robert Weale from Wales in a match that could have a huge bearing on this championship’s outcome. As expected Karen Murphy has imposed her will – and abundance of talent - on the five matches already decided, while her clash with pocket-sized English dynamo Amy Truran, winner of the past two EBA singles crowns, this afternoon will be a lively affair. Section two in the women’s rates ten out of ten on the exhilaration scale. Former world champions Carmen Anderson and Lorna Smith will meet tomorrow morning in a match that should decide who will graduate directly into the semi finals. Both are brilliant performers on any surface, anywhere in the world and it will be a ‘Clash of the Titans’. However, local ace Val McEldowney should not be discounted in the calculations – she is currently on a rich vein of form and is more than capable of causing an upset – or two! Val faces Carmen at noon today and Lorna on Friday at 10.15am and no one would be surprised if she were to prevail in one, or even both outings. There’s thousands more bowls to go down in this fantastic event and nothing is a certainty in this sport, so sit back, enjoy the action and above all - expect the unexpected! Former world North East Scotland’s Lorna champion. Valley’s Shaun Smith is a former Carmen Anderson Scott is leading world and from Norfolk the local Commonwealth Island charge gold medallist. .

Research at the Bank encompasses analytical work designed to produce results with wide applicability across countries or sectors. Bank research, in contrast to academic research, is directed toward recognized and emerg- ing policy issues and is focused on yielding better policy advice. Although motivated by policy problems, Bank research addresses longer-term concerns rather than the immediate needs of a particular Bank lending opera- tion or of a particular country or sector report. Activities classified as research at the Bank do not, therefore, include the economic and sector work and policy analysis carried out by Bank staff to support operations in particular countries. Economic and sector work and policy studies take the product of research and adapt it to specific pro- jects or country settings, whereas Bank research contributes to the intellectual foundations of future lending operations and policy advice. Both activities-research and economic and sector work-are critical to the design of successful projects and effective policy.

THE INTENTION/RECEPTION PROJECT: INVESTIGATING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN COMPOSER INTENTION AND LISTENER RESPONSE IN ELECTROACOUSTIC COMPOSITIONS Robert Weale Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY DE MONTFORT UNIVERSITY June 2005 1 The Intention/Reception Project. Ph.D. Dissertation Thesis. © Rob Weale 2005. De Montfort University, Leicester. ABSTRACT ROBERT WEALE 2005 THE INTENTION/RECEPTION PROJECT: INVESTIGATING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN COMPOSER INTENTION AND LISTENER RESPONSE IN ELECTROACOUSTIC COMPOSITIONS. The Intention/Reception (I/R)1 project concerns an investigation of the relationship between composer intention and listener response in electroacoustic (E/A) compositions that contain or are perceived to contain real-world sound references (RWE/A). These are fixed medium works where the composer’s communicative intent is based wholly or in part on the real- world referential characteristics of the sounding content. Such works are a subset of a corpus of works that appears to be based, for the most part within academia and the professional E/A art music community. The I/R approach concerns investigating if the real-world sounding content and communicative intent of RWEA music might be accessible to a broader audience than that which is currently listening to such works. Indeed, the project is largely focussed on an audience that appears to be unaware that such music exists. In considering these particular issues this investigation of intention and reception focuses on addressing access and appreciation in RWE/A music, an investigation that ultimately seeks to reveal the potential (if indeed such a potential exists) for the broader dissemination of RWE/A music to new audiences.

Lawn Bowling - Overview Lawn Bowling Is a Game That Demands Both Your Presence of Mind and Heavy Concentration to Win a Match
COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 Lawn Bowling - Overview Lawn Bowling is a game that demands both your presence of mind and heavy concentration to win a match. Though, from outside, the game seems easy, but it takes several years of practice for the players to become champions. The balls used in Lawn Bowling are biased which means they are unsymmetrical in nature. It is a very challenging game as one side of the ball is not proportioned and the ball travels in a curved path. The main objective of the game is to place the ball as close as possible to the target which is called as jack. History of Lawn Bowling The history of Lawn Bowling is very old. It is believed that this game was played in Europe during the 12th century. It became very famous in England because in lawn bowling, physical stress is minimum. Since in those days there was always a war with the neighbouring countries, the same proved to be a stress reliever. As there are different types of lawn bowling, the short mat bowling made lawn bowling very famous. Short mat bowls can be played in hotels, schools and colleges, social clubs and even in village hills because of its versatility. Short mat bowls is famous in such areas because there is a space restriction and this sport is perfect for such a situation. It is also seen that this sport is played at the North Sea oil rigs where the space is very less. THANKS FOR READING – VISIT OUR WEBSITE www.educatererindia.com COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 As the game of Lawn Bowling became famous, it eventually came under a ban by the order of King and the Parliament because they feared that the game of bowling may jeopardise the practice of archery and other war-related sports.

Both the needs and limitations have changed in the Twenty-First, and so has the methodology. Large-scale prediction algorithms - neural nets, deep learning, boosting, support vector machines, random forests - have achieved star status in the popular press. They are recognizable as heirs to the regression tradition, but ones carried out at enormous scale and on titanic data sets. How do these algorithms compare with standard regression techniques such as Ordinary Least Squares or logistic regression? Several key discrepancies will be examined, centering on the difference between prediction and estimation or attribution (significance testing.) Knowledge of prediction algorithms is not assumed. 1 19th AUGUST 2019 [MONDAY] B1.00 Panellists 10.30 AM – 12.30 PM - Plenary Hall Thordis Thorarinsdottir, Norwegian Computing Center, Norway STS-479: Leveraging South-South Cooperation in the Wendy Martinez, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Modernization of Official Statistics Towards Washington, USA Supporting the Production
