He attempted to contribute to the theory advanced by Denison Olmsted of Yale in 1833 that meteors were a part of a mass of bodies moving round the sun in a fixed orbit. He began in 1860, with a description of a meteor observed on November 15, 1859. , Newton, H.A., On the meteor of Nov. 15, 1859, American Journal of Arts and Sciences, 30, 186 .

He designed a split-level intersection, in which pedestrians were separated from traffic. Traffic circles, often with a civic monument in the center, have a long history. Until the growing traffic volume of the twentieth century forced the issue, there was no standard rule for moving round them. In 1897 Holroyd Smith in London proposed a "gyratory" traffic flow, with traffic going round the circle in a defined direction.

The celebration of the festival starts on the ninth day of Bugum Goli. Normally, except essential services such as fetching of water, grinding of flour, sale of meat and taking care of the sick, no work is allowed to be done on any Dagomba festival day.

Showing that the Sun rotated had two effects. Firstly, it showed that the traditional Aristotelian model of the universe must be wrong, because that model assumed that the Sun had only a diurnal (daily) motion around the earth, and not a rotation on its own axis. Secondly, it showed that there was nothing necessarily unusual about rotation of a body in space. In the Aristotelian system, night and day were explained by the Sun moving round a static Earth.

Palaemnema domina is on the wing from July to September. In the heat of the day adults congregate in dense vegetation and tangled roots of fallen sycamores and cottonwoods within a few feet of the ground and in close proximity to streams. They perch with abdomens dangling and can easily be caught by hand at this time. In the morning and evening and on cool cloudy or rainy days they are active, often moving round in tandem.

The waltz entered all countries in the Americas; its relative popularity in 19th-century Cuba is hard to estimate. Indigenous Cuban dances did not use the closed hold with couples dancing independently until the danzón later in the century, though the guaracha might be an earlier example. The waltz has another characteristic: it is a 'travelling' dance, with couples moving round the arena. In Latin dances, progressive movement of dancers is unusual, but does occur in the conga, the samba and the tango.

The slick was described in the official report as "a moderate sheen with streaks of heavy dark oil moving round the stern of the vessel." Tug boats were driven through the slick in an attempt to break it up, and the spraying of chemical dispersant commenced soon after the spill occurred. 400 litres of Corexit 7764 and 4200 litres of Corexit 9527 were supplied by Santos. The absence of an appropriate crane at the jetty made loading Turmoil with dispersant at Port Bonython impossible.

This, they said, was Eibhleen, and they called her "The Lady of the Castle." " When distant chimes sound midnight hour, The spirit pure is seen; And moving round the lonely tower, Looks bright as moonlight beam. And as the moonbeams tint the walls, And light the turret's crest, " 'Twas hence", she says, " my spirit fled, 'Tis here my bones find rest. And here I wander, year by year, For such my lot has been, But soon at end my penance drear, I'll rest in joy unseen.

The first sightings occurred in November 1944, when pilots flying over Western Europe by night reported seeing fast-moving round glowing objects following their aircraft. The objects were variously described as fiery, and glowing red, white, or orange. Some pilots described them as resembling Christmas-tree lights and reported that they seemed to toy with the aircraft, making wild turns before simply vanishing. Pilots and aircrew reported that the objects flew formation with their aircraft and behaved as if they were under intelligent control, but never displayed hostile behavior.

A thick morning mist gave his men the chance to consolidate their positions and do some wiring but, as the day progressed, casualties mounted from enemy light machine-gun and mortar fire, and from sniping and grenade attacks. Under Sanders's leadership the Gurkhas held their ground throughout the day and night, while aggressive patrolling around the Japanese flanks succeeded in locating their water point. By 9 February, the 1/7th's position was completely wired; Japanese grenade dischargers during that day had no effect, and the Gurkhas were replying with 2 in mortars. The battalion had begun moving round the enemy's right flank, and by 2.20 pm on 10 February the Japanese – now denied water and almost completely surrounded – began pulling out.

Chinamasa also claimed that US Ambassador McGee was taking victims of the violence to the hospital and paying for their treatment, but that he was doing so only for MDC supporters; furthermore, he said that McGee was "moving round with journalists and photographers in places where there had been no violence", intending to "foment the violence in order to take pictures"."Zim accuses US of supporting opposition" , Sapa-AFP (IOL), 30 May 2008.

My guide, who proved to be Sir James Hamlyn's bailiff or hind, conducted me through a gateway and a plantation to Court, the seat of the baronet. The old mansion of the Carys had been demolished a few years ago by an accidental fire and the present fabric had been raised by the plans of the possessor... The front which first appeared was that of entrance; this was altogether Gothic. A good deal of taste in an assemblage of ornaments appropriate to this kind of architecture was displayed in an open vestibule or portico; these were carved in freestone and wore an air of light elegance. Moving round to the other two fronts, I was astonished to find that the Gothic style had totally disappeared – it had given place to the fashion of modern buildings.

Having deputised so well for Paul Reaney at club level, Madeley was asked by Alf Ramsey to take Reaney's place in the England squad for that summer's World Cup in Mexico, but Madeley politely refused, saying he wanted to rest and, as a stand-in, was unlikely to kick a ball. In the 1971–72 season, Madeley again found himself moving round the side as injuries and suspensions to his teammates, and in the end he never missed a League match, though for a third year in a row Leeds failed to clinch the title on the last day of the season. In April 1972, left back Terry Cooper suffered a broken leg, so Madeley switched to the No. 3 shirt for the season's end and the FA Cup final, which Leeds finally won with a 1–0 win over Arsenal.

He managed to get a minimum qualifying standard of 580 to join with fellow marksman and 1996 Olympic bronze medalist Miroslav Januš and gain an Olympic berth for the Czech Republic, following a top five finish on his senior debut at the ISSF World Cup meet a year earlier in Munich, Germany. Upon entering the Games as a possible Olympic medal prospect, Caknakis had attained a perfect score of 100 on the third run to pull off a steady aim in the slow- target portion with 284 points. He scored a modest 276 in the fast-moving round, but could not improve much better at the very end of the qualifying stage, falling to a distant seventeenth in a 19-shooter field with a total score of 560 points, just eighteen points adrift of the Olympic final cutoff.

At the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Saathoff qualified for his third and final U.S. Olympic team, as a 29-year-old, in the men's 10 m running target, after taking one of the top two berths to join with fellow shooter Koby Holland at the national trials.

The Thanka Wall along the Kora route where Koku is displayed. Kora, a pilgrimage and a type of meditation in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, is performed in Shigatse along a set route covering the Tashilhunpo Monastery, the Mani walls, sacred rocks, a small temple, the Shigatse Dzong, and back to the monastery through the town. It is a walking circumambulation starting with the Tashilhunpo's entrance and moving round along a set route in a clockwise direction. The Kora first covers the boundary wall of the Tashilhunpo Monastery (90 m), then proceeds north to the prayer wheels, climbs up the hills to another row of prayer wheels, passes a large chorten, visits the small Gyelwa Jampa Temple (maroon-coloured) on the right, passes through a series of rocks which are worshipped by pilgrims by rubbing against the rocks and offering incense, tsampa or chang to a sacred fireplace, and then climbs up and passes through a stone edifice in the form of a cinema screen where a large Koku (Thangka religious painting) is displayed on particular occasions (in late July corresponding to the fifth Tibetan month during an annual festival held at Tashilhunpho Monastery).
