Picture by IOCOne of them, Jacob Tullin Thams, was a successful Norwegian skier who had developed his own jumping technique known as the Kongsberger, which involved bending the upper body at the hip and extending the arms at the front with the skis parallel to each other. This approach, which was gradually being adopted across the board, would enable jumpers to progressively draw nearer to the elusive 100m mark and eventually surpass it. In the meantime, USA’s Anders Haugen recorded the longest jump (50m) in Chamonix, but Tullin Thams and his compatriot, Navre Bonna, also produced impressive efforts (both 49m). The Norwegian pair were judged to have exhibited more style in their jumps and thus picked up a higher number of points. Consequently, Tullin Thams was declared the winner with 18,960 points, ahead of Bonna (18,860 points) and Haugen (18,000). In 1926, he was crowned world champion in the individual large hill event in Lahti (FIN), prior to becoming the first ski jump specialist to win the illustrious Holmenkollen Medal, an annual award that recognises the top Nordic skier. Marine Kyle Shaw-Tullin has won a gold medal for Great Britain at the Gee Bee tournament in Helsinki, Finland. The Royal Navy and Royal Marines competitor is one of the brightest stars in military boxing and built on an Inter Services win over Sapper Marley Devitt with a crushing performance for GB. His week started with a split-decision victory over home country hero Benjamin Eriksson, which set the Marine up for a semi-final clash with Frenchman Hassana El Qadmi. The Brit was in dominant mood and dispatched his opponent with a referee's stoppage in the second round to book his place in the final. His opponent there was Australian fighter Linkyn MacMillan, and a classy display saw Mne Shaw-Tullin pick up a unanimous decision win. His gold continues his impressive form in international competitions after winning gold for England at the Grand Prix in Zagreb, Croatia, in December and the Three Nations in Scotland in June.

"Our soils are naturally deficient in zinc self-mulching clays with mini-chasms up to 1.5 metres deep Mr Owen said a seven-year crop rotation was the key to cropping on his property "We only work our country after a sorghum crop "We use offset discs for our mechanical work; it's good for weed control and pulverising everything." Then the paddock goes into long fallow before the rotation of cereal and pulse winter crops begin providing cover to help retain and protect soil moisture Mr Owen said Tullin Tulla was part of the original Yalleroi Station which was drawn and held by the government surveyor Dangar migrated to the colonies in April 1821 and soon after he arrived he was appointed assistant in the Survey Department working under the Surveyor-General at the time Another string to the Tullin Tulla bow is access to an irrigation allocation from the Eastern Recharge of the Artesian Basin Mr Owen said he had three 100-ha centre pivots fed from the bores and NSW Water's closed system is "very well maintained and regulated" with six monitoring bores the harvest days at this time of the year are long "We try to pull up at 10pm to 10.30pm so we can get the team to bed by midnight," Mr Owen said and we fuel up and service our machines and try to get going again at 9am." One of Mr Owen's hobbies is collecting older John Deere tractors and machinery "We found Dad's old John Deere 64/65 round back header on a property near Ben Lomond We're pretty sure that it is the one comparing old photographs and labels on the machine "I still have the first tractor that I'd ever driven a John Deere 5020 and the second tractor I'd driven (another John Deere)." He said the green and gold brand seem to be the most reliable for his operation Chickpea harvest began at Tullin Tulla on Monday "A slight shower of rain pulled us up around dark yesterday," Mr Owen said on Tuesday It's day 17 of this incredible run of good weather; fingers are crossed we can finish before the next major rain event." as well as more than six years as a media officer for several politicians and worked in local government I rejoined The Land in May 2022 and have loved being back in harness I have comprehensive experience in rural and regional journalism Today's top stories curated by our news team Our twice weekly wrap of the latest in rural property sales Our twice weekly wrap of the big news in the red meat sector Industry news from Australia's dairy sector The week's top stories curated by our news team Royal Marine boxer Kyle Shaw-Tullin has been selected to join the England Boxing senior squad for the 2024-25 season Mne Shaw-Tullin is one of 12 boxers from across England to have been chosen after impressing selectors in rigorous assessments in May Army boxer Corporal Terri-Leigh Stuart has been named to the England Development Squad offering opportunities for skill enhancement through various domestic camps Getting onto the England squad is regarded as a stepping stone for boxers to hone their boxing skills and gain international experience with the hope of one day making the step to compete for Great Britain at major championships Mne Shaw-Tullin joined the Royal Navy boxing team in January 2024 making an immediate impact by defeating junior national champion Joe Hodgkinson in his first bout for the Navy He entered the UK Armed Forces championships soon after defeating Army opponent Cody Pearson in the 80kg category he competed at 80kg at the English Championships winning in the light-heavyweight category to be crowned national champion His rapid rise through the boxing ranks caught the attention of England Boxing leading to his selection for the England squad Mne Shaw-Tullin is now set to compete in the Three Nations Boxing Championships in Edinburgh from 21-23 June You are Here: Home » News » Local Sport » Golden glory for Oldham boxing hopeful Kyle has reached another milestone in his already successful career he captured the gold medal at the GB Tri Nations Tournament just outside Edinburgh Heading into the tournament as the least experienced boxer out of the quartet of fighters he was not many people's favourite to lift the the title However, everyone who knows Kyle regardless of the obstacles put his way he will find a strategy to overcome whatever is in front of him - he refuses to lose he faced the Scottish champion Alex Arthur Junior the son of former World Champion Alex Arthur this being the first time Tullin had faced such an opponent Again the Oldham boxer demonstrated that he could find a way to win whatever and subsequently delivered a 4-1 decision over the Scottish favourite The following day he faced the Welsh champion Cole Harris an opponent who relies on throwing relentless heavy punches to overwhelm his opponents this approach would not work with a boxer schooled in the 'Oldham philosophy' of elusive footwork and counterpunching This was more like a Spanish bullfight with Tullin being the Matador took a one-sided beating until his corner threw in the towel in the third round and Tullin became the GB Champion at 80kg Tullin's story of how he got to this point is a remarkable one to say the least - the full story will be saved for another day But he only returned to boxing six months ago after a two-year break in which he became a Royal Marine This is a testament to Tullin's never-lose mentality which was initially instilled at the Oldham Boxing and Personal Development Centre a place where he also developed the boxing skills he currently possesses firstly winning a NW title as youth and taking part in a Boxing tour of Ghana finally becoming a Marine added further to both his mental and physical fitness The Oldham boxer has reached many milestones in his fledgling career with the next one being to progress from the England team to the GB team © Oldham Chronicle -

The second speaker said she was tortured and crushed by her experience "He turned me into a drug addict and sexually assaulted me for years." "It will take the rest of my life to recover from what that monster did to me," victim Hillary Tullin said "Abating those charges cleans his record and we have scars and trauma to live with." and I'm relieved because now I don't have to recount these crimes but he's not going to hear what I have to say," victim Terrie Phoenix said Prosecutors said Cruciani groomed vulnerable patients by overprescribing pain killers sometimes to treat serious injuries from car wrecks and other accidents The six women testified during the trial that the sexual abuse often occurred behind closed doors during appointments in 2013 at a Manhattan medical center where the doctor would expose himself and demand sex The judge did not rule on the abatement matter Wednesday saying she plans to give her decision in writing at a later date Cruciani was also scheduled to go on federal trial for abusing patients in Philadelphia and New Jersey If you are struggling with thoughts of suicide or worried about a friend or loved one, help is available.

The cohesion of the break was undoubtedly helped by the fact that LottoNL-Jumbo and Delko Marseille Provence had two riders apiece in the move while Backaert and Nauleau pulled their weight throughout Their smooth collaboration saw the escapees reach the final 15 kilometres still with 1:40 in hand on the bunch A late surge from FDJ did little to change affairs The escapees still had a buffer of 40 seconds with two kilometres to go and it was testimony to their unity that they maintained most of that advantage by the time they passed under the flamme rouge with a kilometre to go there were no late attacks among the escapees and instead they entered the finishing straight together to sprint it out for the win and his effort was enough to string out the group Bouwman duly launched his effort from fourth position and he had enough in the tank to claim victory ahead of Siskevicius "In the end I made it and so I'm really happy It was perfect," said the 23-year-old Bouwman a native of Ulft in the Netherlands and a professional since 2016 Eleven seconds later after Bouwman had crossed the line pipping Bryan Coquard (Direct Energie) to 7th place De Gendt finished safely in the body of the peloton to retain his overall lead for another day The Belgian carries an advantage of 48 seconds over Alex Domont (AG2R La Mondiale) into Wednesday's individual time trial a 23.5-kilometre test from La Tour-du-Pin to Bourgoin-Jallieu where the general classification contenders will be expected to come to the fore Share on FacebookShare on XSend by emailThierry Fr�maux rescues unpublished works of the cinema inventor in 'Lumi�re aundry workers in one of the films from 'Lumiere The Adventure Continues'.CARAMEL FILMSThere is a phrase at the end of 'Lumiere The Adventure Continues' that Thierry Fr�maux (Tullins 1960) utters with a paradoxical mix of lightness and gravity: "Death will never be absolute." Up to that moment the images shown by the director of the Cannes Film Festival and head of the Lumi�re Institute are a representation of the world from 130 years ago Images captured with the desire to show others what is happening A century and three decades after the Lumi�re brothers amazed humanity with the invention of the cinematograph thanks in part to the changes brought about by their own invention those early moving images captured by the camera continue to generate a fascination that is hard to explain This is what Fr�maux attempts to convey in 'Lumi�re presented at the last edition of the San Sebasti�n Film Festival continues the path of disseminating those early films that Fr�maux began in 2016 The Cannes director points out that in the 10 years from 1895 to 1905 Louis Lumi�re and his team of cameramen scattered around the world filmed two thousand films to meet the public demand when Fr�maux has gathered them after a restoration process "I wanted to make a Lumi�re film with Lumi�re films," says Fr�maux "And bring Lumi�re's cinema back into the movie theater and to the cinema audience So they can see Lumi�re just like they go to see Spielberg." Another way to "reintegrate Louis Lumi�re back into the long history of what he invented." Because among the fragments of this compilation is a panoramic view of Madrid's Puerta del Sol showing the ingenious system for horse-drawn trams to start and end their route Just like that inaugural scene of the factory workers leaving whose importance goes beyond the initial milestone: "The first character in the history of cinema is the people," he proclaims Those early cinematic works had a maximum duration of 50 seconds there are also many beautiful things," admits Fr�maux "But Lumi�re's cinema represents everything that today's world detests: black and white That idea of Picasso when he said he needed his whole life to draw like a child Which is the same as Godard expresses in the film: 'We have to go back to ignorance we will create'." Hence his statement: "The most important and most forgotten figure in cinema is Lumi�re." And also his reflection: "It took us 130 years to say that Lumi�re is also there." Fr�maux explains that his work ("my life," he emphasizes) is to showcase the works of others It is the thread that connects his work at Cannes with his institutional role at the Lyon organization that safeguards the brothers' legacy And regarding the non-absoluteness of death "The man of the 20th century is the man who went to the movies," he suggests It did it for the first time in human history cinema needs an ethic." And then he gives an example: In 'Lumi�re la aventura contin�a,' there is a filming of a duel "Claude Lanzmann [director of 'Shoah,' the monumental documentary about the genocide of Jews by the Nazis] said that there are really no images of what happened in the extermination camps But now you can see decapitated people on the internet cinema controlled what its own identity was," he recalls before addressing the need to 'educate' in cinema: "It's an act of education Showing that one image plus another image has a different meaning we can see films with fantastic intentions but with a terrible result has blurred the boundaries between what can and cannot be captured "is that this world of animated images is a world that we must respect The British Army have retained their team title at the

ever by the charging network’s inadequacies Europcar discovered the number of UK fleets being held back from electrifying by EV charging concerns increased significantly during 2024 The rental company’s EV barometer surveys conducted throughout the year confirmed that the percentage of people naming charging infrastructure as a concern rose from 33.8% in Q1 to 37.4% in Q4.  because almost everyone I encounter when I’m compelled to stop at a charging station usually has their own personal horror story Although we are constantly being told things are steadily improving who I’ve found to be by far the most reliable supplier managed to make a recent trip up the M4 more arduous than usual Stopping at Leigh Delamere services on the eastbound side I was greeted by a pathetic muster of one 50kw item and a pair of 22kW chargers Not having enough charge to make it to the next services at Membury I consulted Zapmap and concluded that if I drove a couple of miles further I could take the slip road and then head back West to access a host of 100-plus kW chargers by the time I’d completed this roundabout route I’d added 15 miles to my journey My next source of frustration involved a detour to a shiny new BP Pulse charging station at Brooklands in Surrey where the promise of ‘up to’ 150kW and lots of available chargers seemed almost too good to be true Having plugged in and swiped my tortured debit card – many chargers will not accept credit cards – I toddled off to a nice warm café nearby returning an hour later to discover the GV70 had increased its range by a grand total of 30 miles the charger had crashed at around the same time I was blowing the froth off my first cappuccino Having repeated the rigmarole and spent the next hour crossing my fingers and freezing my tootsies off; while telepathically daring the charger to throw another paddy I finally achieved the heady heights of an 80% charge As for the tantalising promise of a rapid 150kW delivery rate As frustrating as these experiences may have been they were mere bagatelle compared to what awaited me at Cambridge services on the A14 and the fun and games Ionity had in store for me Two bank card interactions and three different charge point attempts later Speaking to a nice lady who asked me to remain calm while she led me a merry dance around the Genesis plugging in and plugging out while patting my head and simultaneously stroking my belly in a circular fashion – I may have made that last bit up – she too tried in vain to persuade the tight-fisted charger to put out.  the lady on the phone surrendered and offered to supply me with a small emergency boost free of charge to get me to the next available charging station Although she could not explain how she was able to do this and yet she wasn’t able to let me pay for a full charge we ended our chit-chat with her sighing profusely and me giggling manically like a condemned man tucking into his pre-neck-tie breakfast I suppose if there is one saving grace in all this it is the fact that the price being charged by these companies for electricity is so reasonable ranging between 79p and 85p per kilowatt for anything approaching a reasonable rapid rate asking an EV to take on long journeys is still a frustratingly inconvenient and prohibitively expensive undertaking I suppose the fact that I am currently writing this report plugged into a 22kW charger on a charming little industrial estate just outside of Doncaster proves enforced downtime doesn’t need to have a downside With freezing temperatures having such a devastating effect on range and resorting to Arctic expedition-grade parkas becomes the norm rather than using the battery-draining heater I reckon winter couldn’t be any less jolly if it tried Of course, my experiences of such dire predicaments are mainly the results of spending too many chilly miles in modestly powered EVs like the Nissan Leaf and Cupra Born if you use one of these aforementioned motors primarily for commuting and local journeys and you’re fortunate enough to have access to a home or office charger you may well be thinking what on earth is that old Scrooge Tullin banging on about Well not all of us have the luxury of home or office charging and my commute can often be in the hundreds rather than the 10s of miles so any depletion of range and the additional cost wrought about by this reduction is something that really winds me up.  Thankfully the Genesis Electrified GV70 is fitted with a substantial 77.4 kWh battery which under ideal conditions is theoretically capable of 276 miles I say theoretically because even I’m not fool enough to charge the battery to 100% and then run it until things splutter to a standstill Or at least that’s what I thought until I received an email from the Genesis PR department asking me if I’d like to participate in a coast-to-coast challenge The idea being to charge the cars fully in Workington located on the Irish Sea before driving to Whitley Bay on the North Sea coast before returning to Workington A quick glance at Google Maps revealed this expedition would be in the order of 206 miles that’s a bit of an ambitious target and I’m guessing even towards the back end of November Genesis had hoped the daytime temperatures might hit the heady heights of double figures As it turned out the early morning zero-degrees C that greeted me and six journalistic colleagues as we rolled up to our initial charging station meant a 100 percent charge promised a potential range of just 204 miles Although there was a promise of an additional 15 miles if I was prepared to forsake the heater having blood rather than anti-freeze running through my veins this computer-generated forecast was based on my previous driving behaviour but knowing I’d driven the previous day and to our starting line like a nun leading a Sunday school outing I was beginning to think things were looking increasingly sketchy.  I did have some hope that as the sun rose the temperature would do so accordingly and extend my range but as it turned out the mercury stubbornly refused to climb above 5-degrees throughout the entire journey things did look more encouraging having spent the morning traversing the snail-paced A69 and pulling into the newly renovated Spanish City car park as I was greeted by a dash readout suggesting I’d averaged 3.3 miles per kW hours and still had 114 miles of motoring remaining.  Fortified by this positive halfway house achievement along with a huge portion of fish and chips I set off on the return leg before the Newcastle rush hour could kick in and I retraced my journey making near uninterrupted progress back to the gale-swept shores of Workington.  Arriving almost free of range anxiety with 11 percent and a whopping 23 miles left in the battery the GV70 had performed beyond its forecasted expectations by a healthy margin after pausing for an hour to re-energise myself and the GV maxed out the heated seats and heated steering wheel and thumbed the boost button to unleash a tidal wave of EV power every time I came across a dawdling line of traffic I must admit I’ve been feeling a bit like a kid in a sweet shop ever since our GV70 turned up I know the rear three-quarter camera view that pops up on the dashboard whenever I indicate to overtake is available on lesser Hyundai/Kia models the boost button which automatically tightens up the seat bolsters and simultaneously stiffens the suspension as it unleashes the full force of 490hp isn’t exactly groundbreaking none of this prevents a cheeky grin from spilling across my chops every time I whoosh past a line of sleepy Sunday morning traffic I really shouldn’t get such a juvenile kick from abracadabra-ing the key-fob remote parking control Not that I’ve employed it as intended to extract the GV from a tight shopping mall parking bay ‘Here-boy’ and get my magic conveyance to glide silently up to the front door and have the neighbours’ kids think I’m some interplanetary Time Lord it’s the subtle things which can make the biggest differences the smoothness of the electric motors which power the Genesis’s windows and seat movements and the expense involved in acquiring these ghostly movements is something I really appreciate Especially as I know getting the bean counters to sign off on this type of non-essential expenditure is akin to persuading a Yorkshireman to get his round in the way the GV70’s additional reversing lights pinpoint any hidden kerbs which may be lurking in the background and enhance the rear camera view may not constitute must-haves but these items do suggest a level of customer consideration that all too many manufacturers fail to factor into their product planning the inclusion of many of these features is so often dependent on a vehicle’s development cycle and the budget that is available to purchase said features from suppliers during that period the GV70’s intelligent lighting does what most of these systems do decide which parts of the lighting jigsaw to blank out and which parts to leave illuminated so as not to dazzle oncoming drivers Although the Genesis system works effectively enough there are some tell-tale shady striations visible between each lighting segment which suggests it is an earlier iteration and a slightly inferior version of the near-seamless systems that are now available Not that there’s anything old hat about the GV’s interior The subtle backlit translucent mother-of-pearl door inserts and the glass-topped rotary controller set amongst a sea of deeply-padded leather facias and stainless-steel accents look and feel proper fancy As do the multi-faceted diamond stitched seats which are super comfortable and chock-a-block with features Granted I don’t think I’ll be activating the cooling ventilation function over the coming months but I’m sure the spicy heat settings and massage function will get a proper workout.  Genesis’s approach to the GV’s suspension will also contribute to my lumbar health things can get a wee bit jittery on coarser surfaces but the primary body movements are so luxurious I felt compelled to get down on my hands and knees to check for any evidence of air suspension Even though the undersides of the GV are shrouded in mystery hidden behind a vehicle-length plastic skid plate I did manage to catch a glimpse of some traditional steel coil springs as well as some spaghetti hoops of wiring entering the top of the adaptive dampers Genesis says these dampers are informed by forward-facing cameras which read the road surface and adjust the compliance rates accordingly as Mercedes used a similar set-up a decade or so ago on its S-Class and back then the results were difficult to detect when compared to standard S-Class Now perhaps modern processing powers have improved the effectiveness of this tech but regardless of the influence or non-influence of gathering advanced info the GV floats along in an imperious fashion That’s always provided I don’t engage Sport mode which instantly introduces a brittle unforgiving accent to proceedings Regardless of what happens with import tariffs we can expect to see a host of Chinese brands setting up shop on these shores in the not-too-distant future – many already have – so you could argue Hyundai couldn’t have picked a worse time to launch its Genesis luxury brand into the UK.  Obviously, Genesis is Korean, not Chinese, but it faces similar marketing challenges when it comes to capturing the hearts and minds of UK customers and that’s before the European legacy brands really start to roll up their sleeves. Anyone remember what happened to Infiniti?    you could argue Infiniti got everything wrong from the outset introducing outmoded rolling stock that had been on sale for several years in the US and by the time the company realised it was totally out of kilter with market demands – at the time that demand was for fuel-efficient diesels not gas-guzzling petrol engines – it was too little too late Now you could accuse Genesis of scampering down a similar rabbit hole by introducing the GV70 with 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol and 2.2-litre diesel engines but thankfully some brave soul must have shouted loud enough ‘is it just me’ and convinced some high ups to sign off the funds to for an electrified powertrain Now there are obvious signs that the GV70 platform proably wasn’t designed with a fully buzzed application as a priority Perhaps a mild or a plug-in hybrid may have been considered but the fact a great big transmission tunnel runs down the centre of the GV70 tells me it was formulated primarily with internal combustion engines in mind it is all the more remarkable that the Electrified GV70 feels so well resolved.  Genesis’ mid-sized SUV is a proper heavyweight At 2,300kg it is 400kg heavier than the petrol version but the combination of sophisticated suspension and accurate steering do an excellent job of disguising this inherent bulk.  Perhaps the most notable aspect of the Electrified GV70 is just how quiet it is While the electric motors are so well isolated you’d swear you are being motivated by celestial influence rather than any form of electrickery road and wind noise are reduced to mere background murmurs you’re inclined to spend far too many hours enduring the torturous nature of our moribund motorways as noise is an absolute terror when it comes to inducing tiredness Our particular GV70 comes with a host of defences designed to outwit outside bombardments such as all-round laminate side glass and a lush Lexicon sound system as well as supplying rich melodies pumps active noise-cancelling tones into the cabin to help reduce the thunderous slapping of those tortured 20in tyres on pummeled tarmac Of course it helps that the interior also combines a sense of regal old money elegance with subtle and intuitive tech While precison-tailored leather covers almost everything I’ll come in touch with our car features the Nappa leather diamond stitched seats designed to cosset and gently pulsate every inch of my lumbar regions A wide-screen infotainment display can be controlled via digit interaction or in my particular case by the BMW-like rotary controller and I’m absolutely cock-a-hoop about the similar rotary controls for easy adjustment of the cabin temperature.   What’s not quite so much in keeping with all this calm and deportment is the GV70’s ability to summon up bombastic performance thanks to a maximum power output of up to 490hp which is somewhat eccentrically located on the centre-spoke of the steering wheel and fire me and the GV70 from a standstill to 0-62mph in a scenery blurring 4.2 seconds as gigglesome as these antics are I can ill afford to wave goodbye to the already rather limited 276 miles official range And this is before Jack Frost and his range-depleting nip comes calling so no doubt I’ll be exercising a measure of restraint most of the time From a load-lugging perspective the GV70 isn’t particularly great there are handles just inside the boot so I don’t have to open the side doors to fold the seatbacks down but that sloping roof line means the boot is pretty shallow can someone tell me who signed off that cheap-o roller blind cover?  ‘The boat was sunk for a hapeth of tar’ may be a bit excessive three-spoke leather heated multi-function steering wheel with paddles for

predicted rain next week "The crops are yielding very well with a lot of the faba beans but there's still a lot of the later wheat and chickpeas to go," he said "Some of the dry wheat crop is up 6 or

comparison to last season Mr Madden said this year has been much more favourable "Mainly because we've had so much more rain and a lot more precipitation throughout the season it certainly set the
