ACCRA Borja Valero Jersey , May 9 (Xinhua) -- The Ghana Football Association (GFA) said on Friday it had taken strong steps to improve security at match venues as the nation observes 13 years of the 2001 stadium tragedy that claimed the lives of 126 soccer fans.
The May 9, 2001 tragic incident at the stadium occurred during a local premier league match between Ghana's two most successful football clubs, Accra Hearts of Oak, and arch rivals Kumasi Asante Kotoko.
In a statement to mark the day, president of the GFA, Kwesi Nyantakyi Kwadwo Asamoah Jersey , said it was a call to action, adding that, since then, the association had had a singular focus of preventing such an accident from happening again.
"With expanded background checks, effective policing and tougher penalties for violent acts, the GFA has taken strong steps to improve security at our matches Matteo Politano Jersey ," he said.
"But our work is far from over. We will continue to engage the police in identifying hot spots during matches and we will forge ahead with our plans of educating fans on the laws of the game and to be law abiding," said Nyantakyi, who is also an executive member of the Confederation of African Football (CAF).
Nyantakyi said the GFA remembered the fallen friends and was committed to honor their memory by continuing its efforts to improve safety standards in Ghana football.
"Working together, we can make sure this tragedy is never repeated," he noted.
Radiation poisoning and the lack of radiation shielding has been one of the
biggest concerns facing deep space astronauts for decades. Proper measures that
helped protect our modern-day explorers in deep space were amiss, that is until
an EU-funded project Joao
Mario Jersey , the SR2S (Space Radiation Superconducting Shield)
project, actually came up with a tangible solution.
Researchers now
possess the expertise, the knowledge as well as the tools they need to create
effective radiation shielding materials required to protect astronauts from deep
space galactic cosmic rays, thereby diminishing their exposure to the risk of
developing certain types of cancer.
To truly determine the possibility
of coming up with a safe and secure measure for deep space radiation shielding,
this project tried to overcome one of the biggest challenges, the weight of the
magnet Radja
Nainggolan Jersey , by focusing its energies on superconductors as
these materials do not offer electrical resistance at incredibly low
temperatures, something that is all too common in deep space. Since
superconductor materials only work in extremely cold environments which are not
higher than 0, deep space offers the perfect use for this kind of technology as
well.
Over the course of the project, researchers came up with a number
of radiation shielding materials that could solve the challenge at hand through
proposed structures. One of the most promising structures has been called the
pumpkin structure, an active shield that is incredibly lightweight and works by
avoiding the generation of secondary particles to offer effective shielding by
reducing the materials that are crossed by incident particles.
Thanks to
this new structure, the magnetic shield turned out to be 3000 times stronger
than earth’s own shield and this should be enough to offer a 10 meter field
which deflects cosmic rays around the spacecraft Andrea
Ranocchia Jersey , thereby offering the desired level of protection
to deep space astronauts. MgB2 (magnesium diboride) has also been defined as the
material of choice, and this material is already being used by companies in all
kinds of lead free shielding applications that range from magnetic systems for
transportation to x-ray shielding and medical applications.
While it may
take many more years for the technology to be ready for use in deep space
missions, further tests are being planned out to offer short and mid-term
solutions as well. Until a workable plan comes up, we’re no closer to those
coveted deep space missions that augment a new era in exploration, but the
project has certainly helped us understand that deep space missions are no
longer a distant dream, but an up and coming reality.
LONDON Lautaro Martinez Jersey , July 12 (Xinhua) -- UK wage growth continues to lag behind rising inflation, relieving the pressure on policymakers to begin the return of the bank rate to more normal levels.
Official labor market figures released on Wednesday by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) showed year-over-year growth in average weekly wages, excluding bonuses, picked up to a five-month high of 2.3 percent in May, from 1.8 percent in April.
CPI inflation itself has outstripped wages growth for some months and now stands about one percentage point ahead of wage growth, limiting household spending and saving.
Samuel Tombs Mauro Icardi Jersey , chief UK economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics told Xinhua that the wages figures would not prompt any change in monetary stance from the central bank the Bank of England (BOE) and its Monetary Policy Committee (MPC).
However, the rise in CPI inflation is generated not domestically, but by the fall in sterling against other currencies in the wake of the Brexit vote.
As such, the increase in the annual wage figure is not the beginning of an overheating of the economy.
Wage growth will hold steady at the 2 percent level over the coming months, said Tombs, with slack in the labor market supplemented by a ready supply of EU workers Matias Vecino Jersey , for as long as the UK remains in the EU.
However, the subdued nature of the jobs market is long-term and reflects current uncertainties over Brexit and economic growth.
Job figures, also released on Wednesday, showed unemployment to be at its lowest level since 1975.
The UK's rate of joblessness was at 4.5 percent, lower than all but four other European Union nations and less than half the rate of France, a comparable developed economy.
