DEL RIO Texas - An injured bear cub has been spotted near a walking trail in Del Rio. The city is warning people who live in the northern part of the city to keep a close eye on their kids and pets who are outside because an injured bear cub was seen near the Agarita Walking Trail. If you see the bear cub, don't interfere with it, just let it go on its way out of the city. Texas Parks and Wildlife experts are following their bear protocols and monitoring this cub.

Picture by 2016 Getty ImagesBy Jay Lokegaonkar 11 February 2023 07:51 GMT+06 min readA sport that demands precision and focus, shooting has been a marquee discipline at the Olympic Games and is one of the original nine that featured at Athens 1896. Shooting didn’t feature at the St Louis 1904 and Amsterdam 1928 Olympics but has been at all other Summer Games. Separate events for women were added at Los Angeles 1984. The sport is governed by the International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF). Although shooters are largely confined to one place during competition, the sport is nevertheless mentally and physically demanding. “For a layman, when he sees a shooter, he thinks, there is no physical effort,” Athens 2004 Olympian Suma Shirur told Firstpost. “But in reality, there is a lot of effort. "There is a lot of physical activity that is not seen from outside," Suma pointed out. "Because the most natural aspect of the human body is movement. If I have to control the movement, hold my body steady, at the same place for a long period of time, I need a lot of muscle endurance. That needs a lot of strength. For that, you need to have good fitness." Here, we explore shooting at the Olympics, the basic rules and the various events. Olympic shooting features three types of guns — Rifle, pistol and shotgun. In rifle and pistol events, athletes shoot at stationary targets at indoor shooting ranges. Shotgun, however, is held outdoors where shooters have to aim at targets hurled in the air. All shooting is done from a prescribed distance -- 10m, 25m, 50m -- with athletes aiming for a bullseye on a paper target or flying ‘clays’ in the shotgun. The rifle is single-loaded in 5.6-millimetre calibre (the inner diameter of a gun barrel), which is used across all events. The pistol used in the 10m Air Pistol event is a single-loaded pistol in 4.5-millimetre calibre whereas the ones used in the 25m events is a Rapid Fire Pistol in 5.6 calibre with a five-shot magazine The shotgun is a 12 gauge having a calibre of 18.5-millimetres The gauge is a unit of measurement for firearms the gauge is determined by the number of equally-weighing spherical balls made from a pound of lead Do you know the difference between Rifles & Pistols Special jackets or coats are used by shooters to assist them while performing by offering stability The surface of these special jackets is non-slippery and thus The extra-padding inside these jackets negates the effects of recoil The padding on the elbows provides a firm base which is crucial for rifle shooters in the prone position Picture by 2016 Getty ImagesBlinders are used to improve focus and block objects from distracting their vision One front blinder of a prescribed width is allowed for shooters only shotgun athletes are permitted to wear side blinders or blinkers Shooting at Athens 1896 consisted of only five events but the discipline has since grown in stature at the Olympic Games pistol and shotgun events -- covering men and women athletes fire at a target with 10 concentric circles at a fixed distance The event is further divided into two subcategories — 50m Rifle 3 Positions and 10m Air Rifle 50m Rifle 3 Positions: Athletes shoot at the target from three different positions — kneeling Each participant fires 40 shots in each of the three aforementioned positions within a timeframe of two hours and 45 minutes The eight highest-scoring shooters move on to the medal round Picture by 2012 Getty Images10m Air Rifle: Shooters fire 60 shots at the target within a timeframe of one hour and 15 minutes the eight highest-scoring shooters battle it out for the medals In addition to the men’s and women’s categories the 10m Air Rifle also features a mixed team event consisting of one male and one female athlete Each team member fires 40 shots at the target within 50 minutes in the qualification round after which five teams qualify for the final round Pistol shooting features three subcategories – 25m Rapid Fire Pistol 25m Rapid Fire Pistol: This is a men’s only event where shooters have to fire shots successively over short periods of eight The qualification round features two rounds of 30 shots each Eight shooters with the best score qualify for the medal round Picture by 2012 Getty Images25m Pistol: This is a women’s-only event features two qualifying rounds of 30 shots each 10m Air Pistol: The rules of this event are a replica of the 10m Air Rifle Shooters in the solo categories fire 60 shots within a timeframe of one hour and 15 minutes before the top-eight move on to the medal round each team member fires 40 shots and the five top-scoring teams slug it out for the overall honours Skeet and Trap are two shotgun events where athletes fire at an object -- measuring just 10cm in diameter -- called ‘clay’ flying at over 100kph While both events feature the men’s and women’s category Skeet: Both male and female athletes fire at clay targets from eight different spots one on the left and another on the right end of the shooting range The left house is called the ‘high house’ and the clays flying in from it are known as ‘mark’ The house on the right is called ‘low house’ and the clays are called ‘pull’ Athletes take 25 shots each in five rounds over three days and the six best shooters move on to the medal round Picture by 2004 Getty ImagesTrap: Shooters fire at clays thrown in front of them from five different positions The preliminary round of the men’s and women’s event is similar to that of Skeet In the Trap mixed team event featuring one male and female competitor every shooter fires 75 shots in three rounds of 25 shots each The top six teams then battle it out in the medal round where two targets are released from the house at the same time has been dropped from the Olympic programme One Sport" will show you the rules and highlights of Shooting in one minute Unlock this page—subscribe now or sign in for instant access!

Here are 13 things described with “American” in other countries. In Spain, the versatile, do-anything tool we call duct tape is known as cinta americana, or “American tape.” In French, a set of brass knuckles are le poing américain, or “the American fist.” Brazilian Portuguese has the term alface americana, or “American lettuce,” to refer to iceberg lettuce—or, as my cousin Jairo informs me, “lettuce like McDonald’s uses.” In Russian, roller coasters are known as amerikanskie gorki, or “American mountains.” Interestingly, in most of the Romance languages they are known as “Russian mountains.” The Slovenians call cole slaw ameriška solata, or “American salad,” as do other countries in Eastern Europe. The khao pad American served in Thailand is rarely found in American Thai restaurants. The rice is fried with ketchup or tomato sauce, and might be mixed with raisins and peas. It is served with some combination of fried chicken, bacon, hot dogs, ham, and croutons. Apparently, it was created during the Vietnam War when many Americans were stationed in Thailand, and the dish went on to become Thai comfort food.  In Belgium, stores that carry camping and hunting equipment, tools, boots, military surplus, and sporting goods often go by Amerikaanse Stock, or “American stock.”  Wolna amerykanka, or “free American,” is a style of catch-as-catch-can, no-restrictions wrestling in Poland. The phrase also has the more general sense of “all bets are off” or anything goes. In Dutch, a casual potluck where everyone brings a dish is called an amerikaanse fuif, or "American party." Brazil also uses festa americana to describe this type of event. In Spain, the open plan style of kitchen is called an “American kitchen,” as opposed to the traditional style of kitchen closed off by a wall. In Japanese, a hot dog is a hottodoggu, but a corn dog is an amerikandoggu. In Italian, a tovaglia is a table cloth. A tovaglietta all’americana, literally "little American tablecloth," is a placemat. In Brazil, placemats are also considered American; sets of them are called jogo americano, or “American set.” The Dutch have an easy phrase to pull out when talking about huge gaps between rich and poor, lack of healthcare or education access, school shootings, or a range of other situations, including, probably, cans of beer labeled “America.” Amerikaanse toestanden, or “American conditions,” are something to be warned against, as in, “let’s be careful with this decision and not get ourselves a bad case of American conditions.” is in the Rosenheim district on the shores of Lake Chiemsee it’s had some famous previous residents: Pope Benedict XVI’s mother was born and raised in Rimsting and worked as a cook in some of the lakeside hotels It’s a fair amount of work to visit Wank, a mountain in the Alps in southern Bavaria that’s 1,780 metres (5,840 feet) high so they wonder why tourists insist on taking pictures with every ‘Zum Wank’ (‘To Wank’) sign Scenic Mount Wank | © Pixelteufel / Flickr Poing Down the road from Mount Wank and about 18 kilometres (11.2 miles) from Munich is Poing One of its main attractions is Wildpark Poing Bad Kissingen goes way back to AD 801; this Lower Franconian district is home to a famous spa town of the same name once known for its healing mineral springs It’s maintained its therapeutic reputation today and was where the Chinese Olympic football team trained for the 2008 Beijing Olympics The German-Chinese Football Academy is still open today 1930s travel brochure for Bad Kissingen | © Susanlenox / Flickr Titz Titz is over in North Rhine-Westphalia It’s not very big; the district is only – wait for it – 69 km² decided to name one of their districts Spiel (German for ‘game’) Guess where the giggle-inducing Weener is – in the aptly named district of Leer This city on the banks of the River Ems near the Dutch border dates at least as far back as 951 Sign up to our newsletter to save up to $800 on our unique trips See privacy policy This way for Weener | © tup wanders / Flickr | © tup wanders / Flickr Petting This small municipality is right on the Austrian border a pretty lake formed by melting glaciers at the end of the last ice age there’s some evidence Petting dates back as far as the Roman Empire Wangerland didn’t stop at their name – its coat of arms is a topless mermaid.

commercial printing replacing the recently departed Craig Nethercott having previously worked in a variety of roles within Océ and then Canon Océ following its acquisition.  Nethercott relocated to Australia at the beginning of this month to become managing director of Océ Oceania ahead of Canon Australia moving production printing products sales under the Océ brand Rising said: “I am really excited about the role I think the bit that really differentiates us as an organisation is the way we go to market I’ve got a team of consultants and the way we take that depth of knowledge in a very uniformed and structured way really adds value “I’m very much looking forward to continuing this approach and working with a team that has significant knowledge and experience.” Rising said he had spent his first fortnight travelling around the UK and meeting clients, along with attending the Canon Commercial Production Printing Business Days event in Poing he will be reporting to Canon’s director of industrial and production solutions Duncan Smith “The commercial printing team continue to go from strength to strength and Stuart will help build on their success,” said Smith Rising joined Océ in 1999 and served as first a regional sales manager for commercial print and then a national sales manager following Canon’s acquisition of Océ before being offered to head up the Canon UK 3D operation Rising has been replaced in the interim by Canon head of AEC and manufacturing Dominic Fahy He added that a big part of next year’s focus would be continuing to go to market with the 2015-launched Varioprint i300 “I’m not looking to make dramatic changes but it’s about keeping doing what we’re doing and making sure we can keep driving the consultative approach,” he finished.
