Slater-Hammel NASPSPA 2018 – abstracts 4 Human Kinetics Lecture Visual control of natural actions Mary Hayhoe, University of Texas at Austin Investigation of natural behavior has contributed a number of insights to our understanding of visual guidance of actions by highlighting the importance of behavioral goals and focusing attention on how vision and action play out in time. In this context, humans make continuous sequences of sensory-motor decisions to satisfy current behavioral goals, and the role of vision is to provide the relevant information for making good decisions in order to achieve those goals. Components of a good decision include the goals, the rewards and costs associated with those goals, uncertainty about the state of the world, memory, and prediction. I will discuss these factors in the context of walking and interception tasks in both real and virtual environments. Keynote Speakers Keynote Speaker: Motor Development Infants’ actions broaden their mind Gustaf Gredebäck, University of Uppsala, Sweden Three suggestions are presented that aim to illustrate different ways in which actions broaden the mind. (Suggestion 1) Action prediction develops through co-opting. A well-developed motor system allows infants to use their own motor plans to calculate the goal of other people’s actions. In other words, we use our own knowledge about our bodies and actions to make sense of other people. (Suggestion 2) The foundations of mathematics develop through play. Highly proficient manual motor abilities allow infants to actively interact and learn about the world. Reaching and grasping provide opportunities for learning about forms, weights, sizes, and other action-related properties that enhance spatial cognition and strengthen the foundations of the number sense (the approximate number system). (Suggestion 3) Executive functions develop via interactive specialization from motor control. A successful interaction with the environment, through reaching and locomotion, require prediction, selection and inhibition. It is possible that a common process dedicated to structuring and supporting actions develop over the first years of life into separate processes controlling action and long term planning. Together these three suggested processes create a foundation for an embodied cognitive development that allows infants to learn about the world as well as illustrate the importance of active exploration and play for cognitive growth early in life. NASPSPA 2018 – abstracts 5 Keynote Speaker: Motor Learning and Control Faster than a blink of an eye: The use of sensory feedback to control how we move and interact in the world Stephen Scott, Queen’s University Sports such as football or hockey highlight our amazing ability to move and interact in a complex world. A player can skate past a defensemen and shoot a puck over the glove of a goalie. Even if the defensemen knocks the player while going past, great players quickly adjust or even change where they shoot the puck to his or her advantage. Our ability to make such rapid motor ‘decisions’ is captured within the framework of optimal feedback control, in which a control policy specifies how one ought to move given the present state of the body (position and motion). My presentation will highlight the use of small mechanical and/or visual disturbances to probe how the motor system deals with a variety of behavioural contexts. These studies demonstrate that the motor system can generate surprisingly complex motor corrections to mechanical disturbances in as little as 60ms, including the influence of goal redundancy and avoidance of obstacles. In contrast, visual feedback begins at ~90ms, but only considers task- related factors at ~120ms. Importantly, the fact that visual feedback is slower than proprioceptive feedback makes the latter dominate feedback control during motor actions. I will also describe experiments demonstrating a role of frontoparietal cortical circuits in these fast feedback processes. Taken together, this work suggests that the voluntary motor system does not simply generate a pattern of muscle activity to attain a goal (i.e. motor program). Rather, it creates a broad range of strategies and

  • DENNIS AMISS Dennis Played in 50 Tests Averaging Over 46 Scoring 11
    DENNIS AMISS Dennis played in 50 Tests averaging over 46 scoring 11 centuries with 262* being his highest score. In ODI’s he averaged 47 with 137 his top score. In all First Class cricket he scored over 43000 runs at an average of 43 and is on the elite list of players who have scored a century of 100’s. He also took 18 wickets. Dennis played his first game for Warwickshire in July, 1960 against Surrey at the Oval. He did not bat. In fact he watched Horner and Ibadulla share an unbroken partnership of 377 for the first wicket. In the next few years he learnt a lot about the game from Tiger Smith, Tom Dollery, and Derief Taylor, whose work as a coach has gained him a legendary reputation at Edgbaston. From 1966 he became an established player in the number three position, and was easily top of the Warwickshire averages, at 54.78 During that season Amiss played in three Test matches but success eluded him. The Australians came over in 1968, and he played in the first Test at Old Trafford. He had an unhappy game, and bagged a pair The disaster at Old Trafford may well have affected his confidence. The period from 1969 until mid-June 1972 was one of comparatively modest achievement. The summer of 1972 was a turning point for Dennis. Alan Smith, the Warwickshire captain, had six contenders for the five places available for specialist batsmen. Amiss, unable to strike form in the early weeks of the season, had to be left out of the side.

For Sale: One Used League Club, Average Condition By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan O AUCKLAND businessman Paul Davys is in talks with our owner Eric Watson about buying the club, Salthough Watson says he’s in no hurry. He’s had a stake for 17 years, so full marks for persistence, and what’s another year. Watson might be in no hurry, Davys is, saying he’ll give Watson until Friday because he needs to know one way or the other, or he'll walk away. “If he hasn't by the end of the week then it's probably better for the club and me to move on.” Davys has a chunk of the childcare company ChoiceKids, which is as far – or almost identical, depending on your viewpoint – from league as it is possible to get. Doesn’t seem to worry Davys, who says he wants to be hands on, and he is one of the many convinced the culture is wrong, and that attitudes have to improve. “There's a culture problem, fan scan see it, the coaching staff can see it, and the players can see it. But it's hard to change if you don't know how. I've got a fair idea and a fair amount of knowledge on how to build a cul- ture, so that's what I can bring.” No shortage of confidence then.

  • A HISTORY of CLUB CRICKET in COUNTY DURHAM Chapter One
    A HISTORY OF CLUB CRICKET IN COUNTY DURHAM Chapter One..........The eighteenth century In the beginning The first recorded cricket match in Durham was at Raby Castle in 1751. It was five years after the Duke of Cumberland and bayoneted Redcoats slogged through the county’s mud on their way to the Battle of Culloden. Defoe’s account of his travels through Great Britain had not long been published. Defoe found nothing remarkable in Darlington or Chester-le-Street except “dirt” but was impressed by Lumley Castle and acknowledged Lumley coal the best in the country. He thought Durham a “compact neatly contriv’d city” where clergy lived “in all the splendour and magnificence imaginable”. Durham cathedral and Saint Cuthbert’s remains were a shrine for pilgrims but the city was a vulnerable haven riding on a cut-throat sea. The poor lived in slums; the populace was prey to vagabonds, footpads and highwaymen. The Bishop of Durham bewailed “the scorn of religion”. His flock scratched a living on the land or burrowed beneath it for lead and coal; their leisure centred upon drinking and blood sports like cock-fighting. In 1742 John Wesley came across a village “inhabited by colliers only, and as such had been always in the first rank for savage ignorance, and wickedness of every kind. Their grand assembly used to be on the Lord’s Day on which men, women and children met together to dance, fight, curse, and swear, and play chuck-ball, span farthing, or whatever came to hand.” Somehow, sometime the game of cricket took root in these parts.

I can remember coming across what he had recorded and that I had shown particular interest in his very early recollections and of course his great cricket stories. While he had recorded a great deal of information he never quite got to finish the story. After Dad’s passing I thought that it would be great to complete his story and to make it available to those who would like to know more about him, and also to family and friends who shared in his journey along the way. I have added more from Christmas letters he had written plus my own memories from over the last fifteen to twenty years. Fortunately, Ian was very meticulous in keeping records and information. Ian McGregor Stuart was known to many of his friends simply as “Stuey”.
