1930_British_Lions_tour_to_New_Zealand_and_Australia
|
The 1930 British Lions tour to New Zealand and Australia was the twelfth tour by a British Isles team and the fifth to New Zealand and Australia . This tour is recognised as the first to represent a bona fide British team and the first to be widely dubbed the ` Lions ' , after the nickname was used by journalists during the 1924 tour of South Africa . Led by England 's Doug Prentice and managed by James Baxter the tour took in 28 matches , seven in Australia and 21 in New Zealand . Of the 28 games , 24 were against club or invitational teams , four were test matches against New Zealand and one was a test match against Australia . The test match results saw the Lions lose to Australia , and win only one of the four New Zealand tests . As with earlier trips , the selectors had a difficult time putting together the final team that made up the British Isles tour . Roughly a hundred players were approached before the 29 who eventually sailed could be chosen . Of the Lions , the players who stood out on the tour included Roger Spong , Harry Bowcott and Jack Bassett , while Ivor Jones impressed in the pack and set up a memorable try in the first game against New Zealand which gave the Lions their only test win .

National Coalition for Gay and Lesbian Equality and Others v Minister of Home Affairs and Others , -LSB- 1999 -RSB- ZACC 17 , is a 1999 decision of the Constitutional Court of South Africa which extended to same-sex partners the same benefits granted to spouses in the issuing of immigration permits . It was the first Constitutional Court case to deal with the recognition of same-sex partnerships , and also the first case in which a South African court adopted the remedy of `` reading in '' to correct an unconstitutional law . The case is of particular importance in the areas of civil procedure , immigration , and constitutional law and litigation . In the area of constitutional litigation , the court considered its powers where it has declared a law or provision to be inconsistent with the Constitution . It found that , where the constitutional invalidity resulted from an omission in the legislation , it was not possible to cure the defect by way of notional severance . The only logical equivalent of severance , the court determined , is `` reading in , '' which can be an appropriate form of relief under section 38 of the Constitution . Whether the court reads in or strikes out words from a challenged law , the focus should be on the appropriate remedy , not on the label used to arrive at the result .

Quintus_Petillius_Cerialis
|
Quintus Petillius Cerialis Caesius Rufus , otherwise known as Quintus Petillius Cerialis -LRB- born ca . AD 30 -- died after AD 83 -RRB- was a Roman general and administrator who served in Britain during Boudica 's rebellion and who went on to participate in the civil wars after the death of Nero . He later crushed the rebellion of Julius Civilis and returned to Britain as its governor . Because he probably succeeded Caesius Nasica as commander of Legio IX Hispana , and since brothers are often attested as serving in succession in the same post , Anthony Birley suggests that Cerialis was the younger brother of Nasica , and had been adopted by Petillius Rufus , who was known as praetor in AD 28 . However , Ollie Salomies argues that Cerialis was actually the biological son of Petillius Rufus by a Caesia , who may have been the daughter of a Caesius Cerialis , and Caesius Nasica would not be his brother , `` but a close relative .

Great_South_Road,_New_Zealand
|
The Great South Road was the northern section of the earliest highway between Auckland and Wellington , in the North Island of New Zealand . Construction of the Great South Road began in 1861 during the New Zealand Wars under the orders of Governor Grey to improve supply lines through swampy and thickly forested country . The road was constructed by British Army troops , and provided a flow of supplies for the Waikato campaign . Approximately 12,000 soldiers were involved in the construction over two years . After the wars , more peaceful uses predominated , and the road became the main social and commercial link to the growing agricultural areas south of Auckland . Much of the road between Newmarket and Drury is laid in concrete , up to 1 foot thick but is now covered with asphalt . Originally , the road was marked by milestones , but these are now all believed lost . The Auckland Southern Motorway has largely superseded Great South Road as a through route , but many parts of the road are still in use , particularly the urban sections . The road begins in the central Auckland suburb of Epsom , then passes through the suburbs of Greenlane , Penrose , Otahuhu , Papatoetoe , Manukau , Manurewa and Papakura . Leaving the urban sprawl , it heads south through Drury and Bombay , over the Bombay Hills , and follows the east bank of the Waikato River until crossing it at Ngaruawahia . A section of State Highway 3 through Ohaupo retains the road 's southernmost extension . Portage Road crosses it in Otahuhu .

Nazca_Plate
|
The Nazca Plate , named after the Nazca region of southern Peru , is an oceanic tectonic plate in the eastern Pacific Ocean basin off the west coast of South America . The ongoing subduction , along the Peru -- Chile Trench , of the Nazca Plate under the South American Plate is largely responsible for the Andean orogeny . The Nazca Plate is bounded on the west by the Pacific Plate and to the south by the Antarctic Plate through the East Pacific Rise and the Chile Rise respectively . The movement of the Nazca Plate over several hotspots has created some volcanic islands as well as east-west running seamount chains that subduct under South America . Nazca is a relatively young plate both in terms of the age of its rocks and its existence as an independent plate having been formed from the break-up of the Farallon Plate about 23 million years ago . The oldest rocks of the plate are about 50 million years old .

High_performance_sport
|
High performance sport or elite sport is sport at the highest level of competition , with elite athletes as the competitors . In sports administration `` high performance sport '' , where the emphasis is on winning prestigious competitions , is distinguished from `` mass sport '' or `` recreational sport '' , where the emphasis is on attracting the maximum number of participants . High performance sport overlaps with professional sport but is not the same ; for example , the English football league system and Minor League Baseball include lower divisions whose teams ' members are full-time professionals ; on the other hand , competitors at the Olympic Games or World Games in some minority sports may be part-time or rely on government grants . Much research in sports psychology and sports medicine is motivated by the needs of elite rather than mass athletes . Doping in sport is more common at elite levels , and research into performance-enhancing substances has been fuelled by the drive for success . Separate state agencies may be responsible for high performance sport and for mass sport ; national governing bodies for a particular sport often have separate administrative units for supporting élite athletes and for administering mass competitions . National Olympic Committees are often concerned with high performance sport , including the funding of athletes likely to win Olympic medals . In public policy , funding for high performance sport may be justified for reasons of national prestige or as a marketing tool for encouraging mass sport . Eastern bloc countries invested in elite sport during the Cold War ; Western countries began establishing Institutes of Sport for a similar purpose from the 1980s , with sports academies for nurturing promising young athletes . Such institutes may set goals in terms of national ranking on the Olympic medal table .

The state highway also provides access to Fair Hill Training Center . MD 273 west of Fair Hill was constructed as one of the original state roads starting in the early 1910s . MD 273 west of and through Rising Sun was the original course of US 1 , which was paved from the Susquehanna River to northeast of Rising Sun in the 1910s . The state highway east of Rising Sun was paved in several sections between the mid-1910s and the late 1920s . The portion of original US 1 west of Octoraro Creek comprised a western segment of MD 273 from the late 1920s to the late 1950s . The section of US 1 that followed present-day MD 273 was reconstructed in the early to mid-1950s , shortly before MD 273 was extended west to its present western terminus when US 1 was placed on the Rising Sun Bypass in the late 1950s . The highway was reconstructed from east of Rising Sun to the Delaware state line in several stages from the late 1950s to the early 1970s .
