After the East Prussian campaign the 31st Army was railed south to Czechoslovakia where the 88th ended the war marching on Prague.
England went to the semi-finals, where they lost on penalties to West Germany. Woods did not play in the World Cup, Robson choosing to keep Shilton in the side for his 125th and final cap for England in the third place play-off match against Italy after their semi-final defeat. Robson quit after the tournament and successor Graham Taylor instantly installed Woods as his number one. By summer 1991, Woods had accumulated 24 caps as England made steady progress through their qualification for the 1992 European Championships, unbeaten in six matches with three clean sheets and conceding only three goals.
Gay Mecene was regarded as a major contender for France's most valuable and prestigious race, the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe over 2400m at Longchamp on 1 October and starting the 4/1 third favourite, coupled in the betting with his stable companion Dancing Maid. Ridden by Jean-Claude Desaint (Freddy Head opted to ride Dancing Maid), Gay Mecene was held up at the back of the field and was still only sixteenth of the eighteen runners on the final turn. He made steady progress in the straight but never threatened the leaders and finished eighth behind Alleged.
After a break of more than eight months, Hurricane Fly returned to the racecourse in January 2012 to contest the Irish Champion Hurdle. He started favourite at odds of 4/5 and won by six and a half lengths from Oscar's Well. In March he returned to Cheltenham to defend the Champion Hurdle and was made 4/6 favourite in a field of ten runners. He was held up in the early stages and made steady progress in the last half mile, but was unable to reach the leaders and finished third behind Rock On Ruby and Overturn.
153–4 At Mesmiye the Ottoman Army was strongly posted on high ground in and near the village, and well- sited machine-guns swept all approaches. Infantry in the 75th Division made steady slow progress; the main body of the Ottoman rear guard eventually falling back to a slight ridge to the north-east. The attack by 3/3rd Gurkhas and infantry in the 234th Brigade moved up to Mesmiye el Gharbiye and cleared the place of snipers. One company of 58th Vaughan's Rifles suffered heavy casualties during an Ottoman attack on the flank of infantry in the 233rd Brigade.
While the South was shifting from the Democrats to the Republicans, the Northeastern United States went the other way. The Northeastern United States is defined by the US Census Bureau as Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and the New England States although politically the Northeast also includes Maryland and Delaware. Well into the 1980s, the Northeast was a bastion of the Republican Party. The Democratic Party made steady gains there, however, and in 1992, 1996, 2004, 2008 and 2012 all eleven Northeastern states, from Maryland to Maine, voted for the Democrats except New Hampshire leaned more Republican.
With finances running thin and on the pretext that the plague was spreading in the area, both the Latins and the Byzantines agreed to transfer the council to Florence.Stuart M. McManus, 'Byzantines in the Florentine polis: Ideology, Statecraft and ritual during the Council of Florence', The Journal of the Oxford University History Society, 6 (Michaelmas 2008/Hilary 2009), pp. 4–6 Continuing at Florence in January 1439, the Council made steady progress on a compromise formula, "ex filio". In the following months, agreement was reached on the Western doctrine of Purgatory and a return to the pre-schism prerogatives of the Papacy.
Sir Francis Burdett (here by Thomas Phillips) greatly influenced Hunt Hunt became a prosperous farmer. He was first drawn into radical politics during the Napoleonic Wars, becoming a supporter of Francis Burdett. His talent for public speaking became noted in the electoral politics of Bristol, where he denounced the complacency of both the Whigs and the Tories, and proclaimed himself a supporter of democratic radicalism. It was thanks to his particular talents that a new programme beyond the narrow politics of the day made steady progress in the difficult years that followed the conclusion of the war with France.
On 14 March, Siviniaco Conti, ridden by Noel Fehily, started 11/4 second favourite behind Bobs Worth in the 2014 Cheltenham Gold Cup. He was toward the rear of the field in the early stages, but made steady progress to take the lead after the fourth last. He held the lead over the final fence and repelled the challenge of Bobs Worth, but was overtaken by a trio of outsiders on the run-in and finished fourth behind Lord Windermere, On His Own and The Giant Bolster. On 3 April Silviniaco Conti ran in the Betfred Bowl at Aintree.
Boudot took over from Guyon as Esoterique's regular jockey in 2015. The mare began her season in the Prix du Muguet at Saint-Cloud on 1 May and finished third of the eight runners behind Bawina. In June she was sent for the second time to Royal Ascot and started a 16/1 outsider in a much-anticipated race for the Queen Anne Stakes which attracted eight runners including Solow, Able Friend, Night of Thunder and Toormore. She was not among the early leaders but made steady progress in the last quarter mile to finish second, a length behind Solow.
Borderlescott began his racing career by finishing sixth in a maiden race over five furlongs at York Racecourse on 11 June. After finishing unplaced in a similar event at Carlisle later that month he ran third at Beverley before recording his first success in a nursery (a handicap race for juveniles) at Hamilton Park Racecourse on 31 July. In his second season Borderlescott raced exclusively in handicaps and made steady improvement in his eight races. He won minor events at Haydock Park in May, Redcar and Ripon Racecourse in August and a more valuable event at York in October.
John continued Alexios' military successes and was known throughout his reign to be a kind and cautious commander who never risked Byzantine forces in huge pitched engagements that could have resulted in large catastrophes. Instead, he methodically retook fortresses throughout Anatolia during his reign. Progress was slow and gradual, however, because the Turks in the area were strong and the Byzantine military was not yet at its former heights. Nevertheless, John made steady progress throughout his reign on the Anatolian front, eventually conquering a road to Antioch so that he could keep watch over the Crusader princes who ruled it.
Moonstone was not raced as a two-year-old and began her racing career in a maiden race over ten furlongs at Leopardstown Racecourse on 20 April 2008. Starting the 3/1 joint favourite in a seventeen- runner field she made steady progress in the straight and finished second to the Dermot Weld-trained colt Winchester. Despite her defeat she reportedly displayed "immense potential" and was made ante-post favourite for The Oaks. The filly was then stepped up in class and sent to England for the Musidora Stakes (a trial race for the Oaks) at York Racecourse on 14 May.
Scott Daniell, p. 119 The 128th Infantry Brigade was one of three British brigades that made an assault landing at Salerno in Italy as part of British X Corps under command of US Fifth Army, led by Mark Clark in September 1943. The landing was opposed by shore batteries firing shrapnel, and the beaches were raked by machine gun fire. 2nd Battalion and 1/4th Battalion made steady progress, but 5th Battalion had been landed in the wrong place and suffered heavily. A German counter-attack overran ‘B’ Company and the Battalion HQ of 5th Battalion.
Breckinridge's reserves soon joined the Battle of Shiloh as Johnston tried to force Grant's troops into the river. Despite Johnston being killed in the fighting, the Confederates made steady progress against Grant's troops until P. G. T. Beauregard – who assumed command after Johnston's death – ordered his generals to break off the fighting at about 6 o'clock in the afternoon. The next day, the Union forces regrouped and repelled the Confederates. Breckinridge's division formed the Confederate rearguard, stationing itself on the ground that the Confederates held the night before the first day of the battle while the rest of the army retreated.
Kalamoun produced what was arguably his best performance, taking the lead 2000 metres from the finish and accelerating away from his rivals to win by three lengths from Rose Laurel, with Sparkler and Boldboy in third and fourth. Kalamoun faced Sparkler again in the Prix du Moulin at Longchamp on 7 October and started the 1/2 favourite. Freddy Head replaced Samani as the colt's jockey, whilst Sparkler was ridden by Lester Piggott. Early in the straight, Sparkler accelerated clear of the field and although Kalamoun made steady progress he was never able to challenge the leader and finished second, beaten two lengths.
Shane Warne took 4/47 while Glenn McGrath managed 3/19. In reply, Australia reached 1/49 at stumps, losing Michael Slater. Australia made steady progress on the opening day to reach 1/71, when Harbhajan dismissed Justin Langer. Mark Waugh, the new batsman, was dismissed for a golden duck after Ganguly took a one handed close range diving catch from the next delivery. Sanghvi dismissed Steve Waugh and Harbhajan removed Ricky Ponting for a duck in the following over, to reduce Australia to 5/99 after the first hours play with Harbhajan having taken a spell of 3/8.
On 9 June at Epsom Downs Racecourse Pure Grain started the 7/2 third favourite behind Aqaarid and Moonshell in the Oaks. After being held up by Reid she turned into the straight and fifth place and made steady progress to finish third behind Moonshell and the Stoute stable's other runner Dance A Dream. The filly was then sent to Ireland for the Irish Oaks at the Curragh on 16 July. The previously undefeated Larrocha (Ballymacoll Stud Stakes) started favourite ahead of the French-trained Valley of Gold (Prix Cléopâtre, Oaks d'Italia) with Pure Grain third in the betting on 9/2.
The Minnesota Twins selected Lombardozzi in the ninth round of the 1981 MLB Draft after which he was assigned to the Elizabethton Twins in the rookie-level Appalachian League where he hit .321 with 6 home runs and 38 RBI in 65 games.

After returning to Toledo in 1985, he made his major league debut with the Twins on July 12 and split the rest of the season between the majors and AAA.
Voleuse de Coeurs (foaled 20 February 2009) is an Irish-bred Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare. A specialist stayer who was favoured by soft ground she won five of her seventeen races in a track career which lasted from September 2011 until May 2014. She failed to win as a two-year-old but made steady improvement when tried over long distance in the following year, winning three races including the two-mile Irish Cesarewitch (by ten lengths). She continued to improve as a four-year-old, winning the Vintage Crop Stakes and recording her biggest win in the Irish St. Leger.
The dairy industry developed, agriculture was encouraged, and much farm land was opened up on which were grown good cotton crops finding employment for cotton pickers. During the 1910s dairying expanded in the surrounding districts, particularly at Mount Larcom and Bracewell, and the Port Curtis Dairy Company (PCD) made steady progress. Following the appointment in January 1916 of Joseph W Rigby as Manager and Secretary, the area from which the Company received cream was extended and the Company's growth was greatly accelerated. In the period 1916 to 1923, suppliers increased from 216 to 502 and manufactured butter from 179 to 539 tons.

The 1977–78 season was Colchester United's 36th season in their history and first season back in third tier of English football, the Third Division following promotion the previous season. Alongside competing in the Third Division, the club also participated in the FA Cup and the League Cup. Colchester made steady progress under Bobby Roberts ending the campaign in a strong eighth in the league table. They were eliminated in the League Cup by Leeds United in the third round, while they could not capitalise on last seasons FA Cup success, exiting the competition in the second round to Watford.
He finished second of the eighteen runners behind Seiun Sky, who won in a course record time 0f 3:03.2. On his final start of the season Special Week was matched against older horses for the first time in the Japan Cup at Tokyo on 29 November.

During 2007–08, he led the club to promotion to the Conference South in his first season in charge, a feat which predecessor Dave Anderson had proved unable to achieve, having lost two consecutive play-off final opportunities in the previous two seasons. The Dons made steady progress throughout the season, qualifying for the play-offs after finishing third in the League. AFC Wimbledon beat AFC Hornchurch 3–1 in the play-off semi-final on 29 April 2008 and went on to triumph 2–1 over Staines Town in the play-off final on 3 May 2008.
This is a list of international football matches of the Germany national football team from 1908 until 1942. The German team made steady progress from early heavy defeats to England's amateur squad, their best achievement of the era being a bronze medal at the 1934 FIFA World Cup, although they made little impact on other major tournaments. The escalation of World War II in the early 1940s brought an end to competitive sport, and Germany would not play internationally again until 1950, by which time the nation had been partitioned into rival West and East zones, each with their own football systems.
From these bunkers, Japanese antiboat gunners had thoroughly disrupted the landings of four different battalions, and they had very nearly killed General Smith the day before. The seaward approaches to these strongpoints were littered with wrecked LVTs and bloated bodies. Major Hays finally got some flamethrowers (from Crowe's engineers when LT 2/8 was ordered to stand down), and the attack of 1/8 from the east made steady, if painstaking, progress. Major Schoettel, anxious to atone for what some perceived to be a lackluster effort on D-Day, pressed the assault of 3/2 from the west and south.
Limestone Lad (foaled 1 April 1992) is a retired Irish Thoroughbred racehorse who competed mainly in National Hunt racing. Bred, owned and trained by a farming family in rural Ireland he was offered for sale as three-year-old but was rejected after failing a medical examination. His early racing career was unremarkable but he made steady improvement and eventually retired with a record of thirty-five wins and nineteen places from sixty-five races. He was best known for his durability and his performances in long-distance hurdle races and usually raced from the front.
While women in Asia have made steady gains in recent years, gender inequality remains a significant problem. For 60 years, The Asia Foundation has supported women and girls across the Asia-Pacific region. Its Women's Empowerment Program was established in 1994 and has transformed the lives of thousands of women and girls through significant programs that focus on three key areas: expanding women's economic opportunities, increasing women's personal rights and security, and advancing women's political participation. The Foundation supports an integrated and coordinated approach that integrates gender into its work in governance, economic development, regional cooperation, and the environment.
Starting at 6.5/1 in a fourteen-runner field he tracked the leaders before going to the front approaching the last 200 metres. He was overtaken in the closing stages and beaten half a length by the 33/1 outsider Astronomer Royal with Honoured Guest and Excellent Art in third and fourth. Less than two weeks later he started third favourite behind Cockney Rebel and Duke of Marmalade in the Irish 2,000 Guineas at the Curragh. After being sixth at half-way he made steady progress in the straight and finished second, beaten a length by Cockney Rebel.
Bywater and neighboring Faubourg Marigny are two of the most colorful neighborhoods in the city. The architectural styles borrow heavily from the colonial French and Spanish and have elements of the Caribbean. This blending over the last three centuries has resulted in an architectural style unique to the city of New Orleans. As the section of Bywater on the River side of St. Claude Avenue was one of the few portions of the 9th Ward to escape major flooding in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, it has made steady progress toward recovery, more so than many other parts of the city.
He was again held up by Lemaire before moving forward in the straight and made steady progress to finish second of the twenty runners, one and a half lengths behind Lawman. After a two and a half month break, Literato returned in the Group Two Prix Guillaume d'Ornano over 2000 metres at Deauville on 18 August and started favourite at odds of 6/5. As usual, Literato raced at the back of the field and was still ninth of the ten runners on the final turn. He made rapid progress in the straight and took the lead in the closing stages to win by half a length from Spirit One.
Loder explained that the filly had been "crying out" for longer distances and said, "As the Moyglare Stud Stakes was the only Group One over seven furlongs, we decided to supplement her. She has a tremendous temperament and a tremendous constitution, and that is the third time she has raced within a month." A month after her win at the Curragh Bianca Nera was sent to France for the Prix Marcel Boussac over 1400 metres at Longchamp Racecourse. Racing on softer ground than she had previously encountered she made steady progress in the straight but was unable to reach the leaders and finished fourth of the thirteen runners behind Ryafan.
Goryeo appealed for assistance from the Song dynasty, with which they had a military alliance, but no Song assistance came. The Khitans made steady southward progress before reaching the Ch'ongch'on River, at which point they called for negotiations between Liao and Goryeo military leaders. While the Liao initially demanded total surrender from Goryeo, and Goryeo initially appeared willing to consider it, the Korean negotiator was eventually able to convince the Khitans to accept a resolution in which the Goryeo dynasty became a tributary state to the Liao dynasty.Twitchett and Tietze (1994), 103. By 994, regular diplomatic exchanges between Liao and Goryeo began, and the relationship between Goryeo and Song irrevocably chilled.
In the following month the filly was stepped up sharply in class to contest the Group 3 Silver Flash Stakes over the same distance at Leopardstown Racecourse. Starting at odds of 10/1 in a six-runner field she made steady progress in the straight but failed by a neck to overhaul the Aidan O'Brien-trained favourite Maybe. On 7 August at the Curragh La Collina was matched against male opponents in the Group 1 Phoenix Stakes over six furlongs and started a 33/1 outsider. Power started favourite while the other seven runners included Parish Hall, Frederick Engels (July Stakes) and Lilbourne Lad (Railway Stakes).
Wicked Strong's connections opted to bypass the Preakness Stakes and reappeared in the Belmont Stakes on June 7 when he was one of ten colts attempting to prevent California Chrome from winning the Triple Crown. Starting the 5.3/1 second favorite he raced in mid-division before turning into the straight in sixth. He made steady progress on the wide outside in the closing stages but never looked likely to win, eventually dead-heating with California Chrome for fourth, two lengths behind the winner Tonalist. On July 26, Wicked Strong started second favorite behind Tonalist in the Jim Dandy Stakes over nine furlongs at Saratoga Race Course.
Four weeks later, the filly was sent to the United States to contest the ninth running of the Breeders' Cup Classic, run that year at Gulfstream Park in Florida. She was the only three-year-old filly in the race and started a 16/1 outsider in a fourteen-runner field. After racing in seventh place for much of the way she made steady progress in the straight and finished third behind A.P. Indy and Pleasant Tap. Her third-place finish remains the best by a three-year-old filly in the race, and was the best by any female horse until Zenyatta finished second in 2010.
A bucket brigade battled the blaze on the gun deck and the starboard passage forward from that deck, and the wounded were moved to the captain's cabin, where doctors and corpsmen proceeded with their care. Eventually, however, the deck beneath grew hot and forced the wounded back to the forecastle. The bucket brigade made steady headway, driving the fire aft on the starboard side of the gun deck, while a gasoline handy-billy rigged over the side pumped a small stream into the wardroom passage below. came alongside Astorias starboard bow and, by 0445, took all of the wounded off the heavy cruiser's forecastle.
However, that was the last game they lost in this competition being champions for the next four years before becoming members of the WRU in 1998. Brynithel were put into Division 7, however, in the ensuing period, they have made steady progress and won promotion to Division 2 East in 2004/2005 under skipper Gareth John Davies of Treowen. During their time in the Districts, several players gained international honours for the Welsh Districts XV; Carl Mogford, Eugene Glastonbury, Mike Hurn, Mike Peck, Ashley Perry & finally Ieuan Brooks who became one of the youngest players capped at this level. Ashley Perry became the most capped at this level.
Alkaased (foaled 19 February 2000) is an American-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse best known for winning the 2005 Japan Cup in a then world record time. In a racing career which lasted from September 2002 until November 2005, he won six of his sixteen races and finished second on seven occasions. In his first three seasons he made steady improvement, winning the Old Newton Cup and the Glorious Stakes in 2004. In the following year he developed into a world-class middle-distance performer, winning the Jockey Club Stakes in England and the Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud in France before beating a strong international field in the Japan Cup.
The ground was much firmer when Mehthaaf contested the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot in June. Starting at odds of 5/1 she stayed on in the straight to finish third behind Kissing Cousin and Eternal Reve with Lemon Souffle, Las Meninas in fourth and fifth. The filly was then matched against colts and older horses for the first time when she was sent to France for the Prix Jacques Le Marois over 1600 metres at Deauville Racecourse on 14 August. She made steady progress in the latter stages without ever looking likely to win and took third place behind East of the Moon and Sayyedati.
After the race the filly was made ante-post for the 2010 1000 Guineas: Aidan O'Brien commented "she's one of those fillies that changes gear quickly. She has such speed that she has no problem over seven furlongs, and she'll have no problem over a mile." At the Curragh on 30 August, Lillie Langtry started the 8/11 favourite for the Group One Moyglare Stud Stakes, with her main opposition appearing to come from the Sweet Solera Stakes winner Long Lashes. After being held up in the early stages she made steady progress in the straight but never looked like winning and finished third behind Termagant and Famous.
Seeing that construction of the small wooden fort was underway, Governor Clark left to return to St. Louis on June 7. The Americans made steady progress on the fort, and although the defenses were unfinished, the barracks were occupied by June 19. Around the time that the fort was being occupied, the sixty-day terms of service for the volunteers led by Yeizer and Sullivan expired. Most of these men went home with Sullivan, although Yeizer and some men in his company agreed to stay aboard the American river gunboat Governor Clark, a thirty-two oar, fourteen gun wooden vessel anchored in the Mississippi River beside Fort Shelby.
As a three-year-old, Xaar was aimed at the classic 2000 Guineas at Newmarket and began his season in the Craven Stakes over the same course and distance. He started odds-on favourite and won the race, ridden out to defeat the British colt Gulland by a neck. In the Guineas on 2 May, Xaar was made 10/11 favourite against seventeen opponents over the Rowley Mile course. He appeared to be under pressure at half way, and although he made steady progress he was unable to reach the leaders and finished fourth, just over two lengths behind the winner King of Kings.
According to Gosden, The Fugue did not thrive during the cold winter and spring of 2012/2013, and she did not appear until June, when she took on a field including Camelot, Al Kazeem, Maxios and Red Cadeaux in the Prince of Wales's Stakes at Royal Ascot. Ridden by Buick, she made steady progress in the straight to finish third of the eleven runners behind Al Kazeem and Mukhadram. The Fugue met Al Kazeem and Mukhadram again in the Eclipse Stakes on 6 July and finished last of the seven runners. A subsequent examination suggested that the filly was suffering from a respiratory infection.
Women receive decent medical treatment, including prenatal and postnatal care. In 2005, Freedom House noted that Oman's women had “made steady progress” over the preceding decade, with women constituting a majority of university students level “despite gender- discriminatory practices in the enrollment process” and making up an “estimated one-third of all civil servants.” In 2012, Bertelsmann Stiftung described the status of women in Oman as follows: “Oman has been successful in enhancing the status of women, who – at least in theory – have the same opportunities as men in public and private jobs. Oman’s government has a deliberate policy of inclusiveness regarding all segments of the population.
Campaigned exclusively in the North of England, Mrs McArdy made little impact in the earliest part of her racing career, finishing unplaced in her first four races before winning a maiden race over five furlongs at Newcastle Racecourse. She then made steady improvement, winning a nursery handicap race over six furlongs at Thirsk and the Prince of Wales's Nursery over a mile at Doncaster, receiving fifteen pounds from the runner-up, Fair Season. On her final appearance of the season, she took her winning run to four with a victory in a minor race over six furlongs at Redcar Racecourse in September, beating Sarasingh by three quarters of a length.
In the King George, ridden as usual by Hanagan, Taghrooda started the 7/2 second favourite behind Telescope in an eight-runner field which included Magician, Mukhadram and Trading Leather as well as her stable companions Eagle Top (King Edward VII Stakes) and Romsdal (third in The Derby). Hanagan restrained the filly towards the back of the field in the early stages, as Leitir Mor set a fast pace. She made steady progress approaching the final turn and made her challenge on the outside in the straight. Inside the final furlong Taghrooda overtook Telescope and Mukhadram, who had been battling for the lead, and accelerated clear to win by three lengths.
In a closely contested finish, he recovered after struggling to obtain a clear run and finished half a length behind Ramonti, just ahead of Duke of Marmalade and the six-year-old gelding Cesare. A month later he was sent to the United States for the Breeders' Cup Mile at Monmouth Park and started 2/1 favourite against twelve opponents. Ridden by Johnny Murtagh, he raced at the back of the field before moving up to sixth on the final turn. He was switched to the outside in the straight and made steady progress to finish second, a length behind the four-year-old Kip Deville.
In a slowly run race he came from well off the pace and made steady progress in the straight but failed to reach the leaders and finished fourth behind Fierement Etario and You Can Smile. Following the race Masahiro Otake said that the slow pace had not suited his trainee but pointed out that the colt had recovered very quickly from the race and was suffering less back pain than usual. Blast Onepiece was one of sixteen horses invited to contest the 2500 metres Arima Kinen at Nakayama Racecourse on 23 December and was made the 7.9/1 third choice in the betting behind Rey de Oro and Kiseki.
In the 2017 Epsom Derby was the least-fancied of the three Godolphin runners and started a 20/1 outsider. After turning into the straight last of the eighteen runners he made steady progress and came home fifth behind Wings of Eagles, Cliffs of Moher, Cracksman and Eminent. Nineteen days later at Royal Ascot the colt started the 9/2 second choice in the betting behind the Aidan O'Brien-trained Orderofthegarter in the Group 3 Hampton Court Stakes over ten furlongs. Ridden by Oisin Murphy, he tracked the leaders, went to the front approaching the final furlong and stayed on strongly to win by half a length from Orderofthegarter.
Having failed to win two starts in early 2003, Rule Supreme was still eligible for novice chases in the 2003/2004 season which began in April. At the end of that month he carried 161 pounds in handicap race for novices over three miles and a furlong at Punchestown. Ridden by David Casey made steady progress over the last six fences before overtaking his better-fancied stable companion Hedgehunter in the closing stages and winning by three and a half lengths. In the last race of his spring campaign, Rule Supreme started 4/7 favourite at Gowran Park but fell at the eighth fence when in third place.
He made steady progress to join the leaders just after half way and was sent through a gap along the rails to take a slight lead over Raeburn on the turn into the straight. Two furlongs from the finish Isinglass swerved to the right and appeared to be struggling, allowing Raeburn to take the advantage and forcing Loates to use his whip and spurs on the favourite. Isinglass responded immediately, pulled ahead of Raeburn, and held off the late challenge of Ravensbury to win by one and a half lengths. The first three horses from the 2000 Guineas filled the first three places in the Derby.
After the race Dettori commented "It was really a question of not losing too much ground early on so I could have a shot at the finish, but I must admit I was worried at the furlong marker when I was still three lengths behind Bertolini". On his final start of the year Diktat was sent to France again and started odds-on favourite for the Prix de la Forêt over 1400 metres at Longchamp Racecourse on 17 October. After turning into the straight in tenth place he made steady progress but finished fifth in a blanket finish behind Field of Hope. It was Diktat's first defeat in over fourteen months.
Quadrilateral was ridden in all of her races as a two-year-old by Jason Watson. The filly began her racecourse career in a maiden race over seven furlongs at Newbury Racecourse on 16 August when she started the 7/2 second favourite in a ten-runner field. After racing in mid-division she made steady progress in the last quarter mile, took the lead in the closing stages and won by a neck from the colt Mambo Nights. Five weeks later, over the same course and distance, Quadrilateral contested a minor fillies' race in which she tarted the 7/4 second favourite behind the Michael Stoute-trained Melnikova.
Lycius recorded his first success in July 1990 when he won the Listed Prix Saint Patrick over 1400 metres at Deauville Racecourse. The runner-up River Traffic was later sent to race in the United States where he won the Laurel Futurity.

After turning into the straight in fifth place he made steady progress in the closing stages to finish second, one length behind Hector Protector.
Dettori settled the favourite in mid-division as Nayef Road set the pace and then made steady progress on the outside as the field entered the straight. Stradivarius took the lead approaching the final furlong and drew right away from his opponents in the closing stages to win by ten lengths. On 28 July, despite giving substantial weight (15 lbs) to the younger horse Santiago and getting boxed in before the final run to victory, Stradivarius won a record fourth Goodwood Cup by one length. His next start was the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe where he came seventh in the eleven horse field.
Awtaad began his racing career in a maiden race over seven furlongs at the Curragh on 11 October and started at odds of 9/1 in a sixteen-runner field. After being restrained by Hayes in the early stages he made steady progress in the last quarter mile to finish third, beaten two and a half lengths by the Aidan O'Brien-trained favourite Black Sea. Two weeks later the colt started 11/8 favourite against fourteen opponents in a maiden over the same distance at Leopardstown Racecourse. After tracking the leaders in the early stages he took the lead inside the last quarter mile and won by two lengths from Bravery.
Cloth of Stars started odds-on favourite for the Prix de Condé over 1800 metres at Chantilly Racecourse but sustained his first defeat as he pulled hard in the early stages and finished third to the British-trained Robin of Navan. Cloth of Stars met Robin of Navan again in the Group One Critérium de Saint-Cloud over 2000 metres on 1 November when the two colts started second and third in the betting behind the Aidan O'Brien-trained Idaho. After being restrained towards the rear of the field Cloth of Stars made steady progress in the straight and finished second to Robin of Navan.
He became a Football League linesman in 1977 and three years later achieved promotion to the referees' list at the age of thirty-one. He made steady progress in his early years but by the late 1980s was becoming a regular top division referee, often handling Lancashire derby games including those involving the big Manchester and Liverpool clubs. He became one of the first Premier League referees in 1992,† shortly after taking charge of his most senior cup appointment - a League Cup semi-final first leg between Nottingham Forest and Tottenham Hotspur. His first match in that competition was the 4-1 home win by Middlesbrough against Leeds United at Ayresome Park on 28 August.
Tom Cannon, Isonomy's regular jockey On his four-year-old debut, Isonomy carried 124 pounds in the Newmarket Handicap on 15 April and started 2/1 favourite. Among his opponents was the American horse Parole, who was not regarded as a serious threat by the British racegoers and started 100/15 fourth choice in the betting despite receiving eight pounds. Parole took the lead at half way and drew clear. Although Isonomy made steady progress he was unable to catch the leader and finished second, beaten one and a half lengths. Gretton then challenged Parole's owners to a £10,000 weight-for-age match race between the horses, but his offer was declined.
In the 2014 Kentucky Derby, Wicked Strong, the 6.5/1 second favorite, drew number 20 post position, on the far outside of the field. Jerkens admitted that the draw was disadvantageous and commented that "my dad was bummed about it" but also said that "at least he won't have anybody from the outside banging him in there". After stumbling on leaving the gate Wicked Strong was forced five wide on the first turn and was towards the back of the field for most of the way. He was in tenth place with a quarter mile left to run but made steady progress to finish fourth behind California Chrome, Commanding Curve and Danza.
On 23 July Goodricke was matched against older horses in a valuable seven furlong handicap at Newbury in which he was assigned a weight of 119 pounds. He finished second of the twenty-four runners, beaten half a length by the five year old New Seeker after staying on strongly in the closing stages. The colt was then stepped up sharply in class when he was sent to France for the Group One Prix Maurice de Gheest over 1300 metres at Deauville Racecourse. Ridden by Olivier Peslier and starting a 20/1 outsider he appeared to be struggling in the early stages but made steady progress in the straight to finish second, half a length behind the favourite Whipper.
Four fences from the finish, Cybrandian led from Door Latch, but The Thinker had made steady progress into third ahead of Forgive 'n' Forget, Wayward Lad and Combs Ditch. The Thinker moved into second but made a bad jumping error at the third last and turned into the straight in third place behind Cybrandian and Wayward Lad. The Thinker maintained his position over the last two fences before tracking to the right on the run-in and producing a strong late run to overtake Cybrandian in the last hundred yards and win by one and a half lengths. Door Latch and West Tip finished well to take third and fourth ahead of Wayward Lad.
He proved no match for the mare in the closing stages as was beaten eight lengths into second place. Zarkandar again prepared for the 2014 Cheltenham Festival in the Kingwell Hurdle but after taking the lead approaching the second last hurdle he was overtaken on the run-in and beaten half a length by the eight-year-old Melodic Rendezvous. At Cheltenham on 14 March, Zarkandar was moved up in distance for the Grade I World Hurdle over three miles. Starting a 14/1 outsider, he made steady progress in the closing stages without ever looking likely to win, and finished fourth of the ten runners behind More Of That, Annie Power and At Fishers Cross.
On her final start of the season Roseate Tern was matched against colts in the St Leger Stakes and started the 5/2 second favourite behind the Henry Cecil-trained Michelozzo. The St Leger meeting at Doncaster was abandoned owing to the poor state of the course and the race was run a week later at Ayr Racecourse. After being held up by Carson in the early stages the filly made steady progress without looking likely to win and finished third behind Michelozzo and Sapience, with Terimon in fourth place. At the end of the year, the filly was bought privately by the American businessman Peter Brant and moved to the stable of Luca Cumani at Newmarket.
Ridden by Eddery, she was the 6/1 fourth choice in the betting behind Faithful Son (winner of the Prince of Wales's Stakes), Chester House and Limpid (Grand Prix de Paris). She was among the leaders in the start and despite coming under pressure in the straight but made steady progress along the inside rail and took the lead on the line to win in a three-way photo-finish from Faithful Sun and Chester House. After the race Cumani admitted that he thought the filly had finished second, but paid tribute to his winner, saying that "she has always been highly promising. You don't compile a record of wins like hers without being very good".
Zalaiyka raced in second place before "streaking away" in the last 200 metres and came four lengths clear of Cortona, with La Nuit Rose a neck away in third. For her first and only venture outside France, Zalaiyka was sent to England in June and started the 5/4 favourite for the Group 1 Coronation Stakes over one mile at Royal Ascot. After being held up in the early stages she made steady progress in the straight but was beaten into second place by Exclusive with Winona in third. Royer-Dupre, who was attempting to win his first race in Britain, said "She was changing her legs continuously and she found it a bit long in the end".
Returning as a four-year-old in 2014, Itsmyluckyday had a new regular jockey in Paco Lopez and made steady improvement in his first five starts. As in the previous year, he began his campaign at Gulfstream where he finished fourth to Palace Malice in the Gulfstream Park Handicap before winning the Best of the Rest Stakes in April. He then moved to Monmouth Park where he recorded wins in the Listed Majestic Light Stakes and the Grade III Salvator Mile. In August he returned to Grade I company for the first time since the Preakness and finished second to Moreno in the Whitney Handicap at Saratoga, with Will Take Charge and Palace Malice among those behind.
On the eve of the Wars of Independence the Comyns were one of the dominant families of Scotland, with extensive land holdings in both the north and south of the country, and political influence and family connections with the crown. Of Norman-French origin, the family first made an appearance in Scotland during the reign of David I and made steady progress ever since. In the thirteenth century they acquired the lordship of Badenoch, with extensive landholdings also in Lochaber, as well as the earldom of Buchan. On the death of Alexander III, John Comyn's father was appointed to the panel of Guardians to await the arrival of the infant Margaret, Maid of Norway, granddaughter of Alexander III.
Shortly after being called to the bar in 1925 he joined the chambers of Wintringham Stable at 2 Crown Office Row, now Fountain Court Chambers. He remained there for the rest of his legal career except for the war years, eventually becoming head of chambers. Most of Stevenson's early legal work was in the field of insolvencies, "almost always with small fees", and he made steady progress until the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939. He did very little criminal work in this part of his career. In 1940 he joined the army and served until 1945 as a Deputy Judge Advocate with the rank of major; he was appointed a King's Counsel in 1943.
Timarida (11 April 1992 - after 2006) was an Irish Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare bred and owned by the Aga Khan, who competed in six different countries and won major races in five of them. In a racing career which lasted from March 1995 until December 1996 she ran sixteen times, recording ten wins, two seconds and two third places. As a three-year-old in 1995 she began her season in minor Irish races and made steady improvement, winning seven races including the Brownstown Stakes, Matron Stakes, Prix de l'Opéra and E. P. Taylor Stakes. In the following season she added wins in the Bayerisches Zuchtrennen, Beverly D. Stakes and Irish Champion Stakes.
Despite his heavy teaching load and administrative duties at Virginia Tech, where he had just become head of a large civil-engineering program, Morris made steady progress on his section of the book, eventually contributing more than twice as much material as Whitcomb.Numbers(2006) p222 As the manuscript neared completion, Moody Press, which had expressed initial interest, now hesitated. The proposed book was a long work, insisting on six literal days of creation, certain to be criticized by segments of Moody's constituency.Numbers(2006) p224 Whitcomb and Morris instead published with the smaller Presbyterian and Reformed Publishing Company, whose owner Charles H. Craig had long wanted to acquire a manuscript that supported catastrophism.
She made steady progress on the outside in the straight without ever looking likely to win and finished fourth behind Ela- Mana-Mou, Mrs Penny and Gregorian. Dunette was ruled out of a run in the Prix Foy after suffering a bout of colic and returned in the Prix du Prince d'Orance over 2000 metres at Longchamp on 21 September. She started second favourite behind Three Troikas (the fillies were meeting for the fifth time) with the other runners including Providential and Northern Baby. Despite conceding two pounds to her old rival, Dunette won comfortably by half a length from Three Troikas with Doloeuze patting her on the head as she crossed the line.
During the 1910s dairying expanded in the surrounding districts, particularly at Mount Larcom and Bracewell, and the PCD made steady progress. Following the appointment in January 1916 of Joseph W Rigby as Manager and Secretary, the area from which the Company received cream was extended and the Company's growth was greatly accelerated. In the period 1916 to 1923, suppliers increased from 216 to 502 and manufactured butter from . Historian Lorna Macdonald (1988:170) suggests that during the 1920s the combination of Wilson (JL, of Calliope Station) as chairman, Rigby as manager, and RM Hill of Bororen who was elected to the board in 1924 made the PCD one of the largest co-operative organisations in Queensland.
Tepin made very little impact on her first two starts of 2014, finishing unplaced in the Miss Preakness Stakes on dirt at Pimlico Race Course in May and the Regret Stakes on turf at Churchill Downs in June. Stewart Elliott took over from Mena when the filly contested the Grade II San Clemente Handicap over one mile on turf at Del Mar Racetrack on July 20. Starting as an 18.3/1 longshot, she made steady progress in the straight to finish second, two and a half lengths behind the winner Istanford. On her only other appearance of the season, the filly finished last in the Grade I Del Mar Oaks on August 17.
The Cincinnati Reds had made steady improvements over the past two seasons, and were looking to improve even more in 1904, as they were hoping to contend for the National League pennant. The Reds won only 52 games in 1901, however, they improved to 70 in 1902, and 74 in 1903. Joe Kelley returned for his third season as player-manager of the team, as he took over first base on a permanent basis after Jake Beckley joined the St. Louis Cardinals. Thirty-one-year-old rookie Fred Odwell joined the team after spending the 1903 season with the Louisville Colonels of the American Association, while another rookie Miller Huggins, took over the starting job at second base.
In the summer of 1963, the leading two-year-old in Parke's stable was Raise a Native, who was undefeated in four races and was regarded as the best horse of his generation before his career was ended by injury in early August. At the time of Raise a Native's injury, his stable companion, Roman Brother, who had been gelded before the start of his racing career, had appeared only once on the racecourse, winning a maiden race at Aqueduct Racetrack on July 25. The gelding made steady progress before emerging as a top-class horse in autumn. Racing at Aqueduct, Roman Brother won two allowance races before challenging for the Champagne Stakes on October 13.
After being outpaced and running last of the nine fillies early on she made steady progress on the outside to finish third behind You, Habibti and Ile de France, two lengths behind the winner. On May 3, in front of a 101,923 at Churchill Downs Farda Amiga, with McCarron again in the saddle, started a 20/1 outsider in a ten-runner field for the 128th running of the Kentucky Oaks. The Ashland Stakes winner Take Charge Lady started favorite ahead of You, the Godolphin Racing filly Imperial Gesture and Habibti. She was not among the early leaders but made progress along the backstretch to join the leaders approaching the final turn.
Nebbiolo began his three-year-old season in the Vauxhall Trial Stakes at Phoenix Park in April and finished second, a length behind Milverton, who was carrying seven pounds less. In the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket, Nebbiolo was ridden by Gabriel "Squibs" Curran and started at odds of 20/1 in a field of eighteen runners, with another Irish- trained colt, The Minstrel, starting 6/5 favourite. After being restrained in the early stages he made steady progress from three furlongs out and took the lead entering the final furlong. In the closing stages he ran on strongly to win by a length from Tachypous with The Minstrel a further length away in third.
Palace Malice (foaled May 2, 2010) is an American Thoroughbred racehorse best known for winning the 2013 Belmont Stakes. After winning one minor race as a two-year-old he made steady improvement in the early part of 2013, being placed in the Risen Star Stakes and Blue Grass Stakes and running prominently in the Kentucky Derby before winning the Belmont Stakes, and the 2014 Metropolitan Handicap. He went on to win the Jim Dandy Stakes and finish second against older horses in the Jockey Club Gold Cup. As a four-year-old in 2014 he won his first four races including the Gulfstream Park Handicap, New Orleans Handicap and Metropolitan Handicap.
The Germans were also on the verge of introducing a number of terrifying new weapons, including advanced jet aircraft, which were too fast for ordinary propeller aircraft, and submarine improvements which would allow the Germans to again fight effectively in the Atlantic. All this came too late to save Hitler. Although a September invasion of The Netherlands failed, the Allies made steady advances. In the winter of 1944, Hitler put everything into one last desperate gamble in the West, known as the Battle of the Bulge, which, despite an initial advance, was a failure, because the introduction of new Allied tanks and low troop numbers among the Germans prevented any real action being taken.
Farmers in Starrs Point and Canard began to discuss building a large dyke at the mouth of the Canard River in 1809. They may have been inspired by the three mile long Wickwire Dyke completed near Wolfville in 1808.Sherman Blakeney, Sods, Soils and Spades, McGill Queens University Press (2004) page 62 The Planters at Canard had made steady additions to the Acadian dykes along the edges of the river but a dyke at near the mouth of the river would reclaim an additional 700 acres of farmland from the Minas Basin and save the maintenance of the many smaller dykes along the river which protected over 2,000 acres. A plan was organized in 1811.
England made steady progress, Bob Barber was out for 5, but the young batsmen Geoff Boycott (45) and John Edrich (32) batted for 108 minutes adding 70 runs for the second wicket before the leg-spinner Peter Philpott removed them both. The stonewaller Ken Barrington dug himself in for over three hours making 53 while first Jim Parks (52) and Fred Titmus (60) attacked the bowling at the other end. Parks hit 4 fours and 3 sixes and Titmus 6 fours and Barrington asked them to slow down as they were making him look foolish.p164, Titmus They both fell to Philpott, as did Brown to give the Australian 5/90, his only five-wicket haul in Tests.
He was an outstanding local product and arrived at Wakefield Trinity via Cathedral School and Eastmoor ARLFC. He progressed through the intermediate and A-teams before making his début in the first match of the 1952–53 season, scoring a try in a 30–21 victory over Doncaster. Holliday made steady progress, starting out as a stand off and alternating in the centres and within four years of his début, he represented Great Britain, partnering Don Fox, in an unofficial 18–10 victory over France at Odsal Stadium, Bradford in 1956. He added to his representative honours a season later when he was stand off for Yorkshire, in defeat by Cumberland at Recreation Ground (Whitehaven), Whitehaven.
JN-25B was introduced on 1 December 1940, but was broken immediately by FECB as the additives were not changed. Most references cite about 10% of messages partially (or sometimes completely) decrypted prior to 1 December 1941, at which time a new edition of the system went into effect and sent all the cryptanalysts back to the beginning. After 7 December 1941, there was considerably more JN-25 traffic as the Japanese Navy operational tempo increased and geographically expanded, and progress against it went better. The FECB contribution stopped until the crypto station could be relocated from Singapore to Ceylon, but CAST, HYPO, and the Dutch at Batavia, in conjunction with OP-20-G, made steady progress.
Since the 1980s, Barré-Sinoussi has initiated collaborations with developing countries and has managed multidisciplinary networks with dedication. In 2016, she was interviewed by the Sunday Observer and reflected on how Jamaica is dealing with HIV. She constantly works on establishing permanent links between basic research and clinical research with the aim of achieving concrete improvements in the areas of prevention, clinical care, and treatment.WITI Hall of Fame Professor Barré- Sinoussi believes that scientists have made steady progress given the development of antiretroviral treatment which UNAIDS states is being accessed by 17 million of the people globally who are living with AIDS, but finding a cure, or cures, will take time, and a continued investment in research.
Deano's Beeno took the lead and opened up a clear advantage, but Princeful made steady progress and took the lead in the closing stages to win by half a length with a gap of thirty lengths back to Ocean Hawk in third. After the race Pitman embraced the winner, whilst Dunwoody said "I think that was as tough a performance as I can recall from any horse". Pitman announced that the gelding would be aimed at the RSA Chase at the Cheltemham Festival with the 2000 Gold Cup as the long-term objective. In January Princeful made his debut over fences and started odds-on favourite for a novice chase over three miles at Doncaster Racecourse.
He reached sekitori status in November 2003, after more than eleven years in the unsalaried divisions, by winning the makushita tournament championship or yusho with a perfect 7-0 record. He was the first wrestler from Asahiyama stable to be promoted to jūryō since the new head coach took over in 1997. He made his jūryō debut alongside future yokozuna Hakuho. After two losing scores in January and March 2004 he slipped back to makushita, but he returned to jūryō in January 2005. He made steady progress, rising slowly up the jūryō division with a succession of 8-7 scores, which was enough to earn him promotion to the top makuuchi division for the July 2006 tournament.
These courts came to known as "La Chambre Ardente" ("the fiery chamber") because of their reputation of meting out death penalties on burning gallows. Despite heavy persecution by Henry II, the Reformed Church of France, largely Calvinist in direction, made steady progress across large sections of the nation, in the urban bourgeoisie and parts of the aristocracy, appealing to people alienated by the obduracy and the complacency of the Catholic establishment. alt= French Protestantism, though its appeal increased under persecution, came to acquire a distinctly political character, made all the more obvious by the conversions of nobles during the 1550s. This established the preconditions for a series of destructive and intermittent conflicts, known as the Wars of Religion.
Shimotori competed in amateur sumo at Tokyo University of Agriculture, but did not manage to win a major national title. He was recruited by the Tokitsukaze stable and made his professional debut in May 2000, almost a year later than intended due to injuries from a traffic accident. Due to his amateur record he was given makushita tsukedashi status and began at the bottom of the third highest makushita division. Shimotori reached sekitori status in May 2001 upon promotion to the second highest jūryō division, and he made steady progress, rising to jūryō 3 by January 2002, where a 12-3 score and a playoff for the yusho or championship with Takamisakari earned him promotion to the top makuuchi division for March 2002.
On 6 June Memoir, with John Watts in the saddle, was one of seven fillies to contest the 112th running of the Oaks Stakes over one and a half miles at Epsom Racecourse. The Middle Park Plate winner Signorina started even money favourite ahead of Memoir (100/30) and Semolina, while the only one of the other four to be given any chance was Ponza (100/8). Memoir was restrained towards the rear as Semolina set the early pace, but made steady progress from half way and moved into contention in the straight. She took the lead entering the final furlong and defeated Signorina to win by three quarters of a length with Ponza taking third place ahead of Semolina.
After being held up as usual she made steady progress in the straight without ever looking likely to win and finished fourth behind Lillie Langtry, Gile Na Greine and Jacqueline Quest. On 7 July Music Show was matched against older fillies and mares for the first time in the Group One Falmouth Stakes over one mile on the July Course at Newmarket in which she was ridden by Richard Hughes and started at odds of 13/2. Lillie Langtry (the 9/4 favourite), Special Duty and Gile Na Greine were again in opposition whilst the other three-year-old in the field was the Jersey Stakes winner Rainfall. The senior contingent comprised Strawberrydaiquiri (Dahlia Stakes, Windsor Forest Stakes), Spacious (2009 Windsor Forest Stakes) and Lahaleeb (E.
Veiga, p.133-134 Goga made history in 1933, when he openly demanded the creation of special concentration camps for sorting out Romanian Jews. Fascism was more successfully represented by the former LANC paramilitary wing, the Iron Guard, which Averescu denounced as an "anarchic" movement. The Guard made steady electoral gains throughout the more disputed electoral circumscriptions, appealing to the social groups most affected by the economic crisis.Veiga, p.134-147, 152-161 As Veiga notes, the Guard was also able to collect the PP's upper-class voters, including Cantacuzino-Grănicerul.Veiga, p.184 The PNA defection was a debilitating coup against the Averescans, who lost not just Goga, but also Ghibu, Agârbiceanu, and several high-ranking cadres (Silviu Dragomir, Stan Ghițescu, Constantin Iancovescu).
On 10 June Roseate Tern, still a maiden after five starts was one of nine fillies to contest the 211th running of the Oaks Stakes over one and a half miles at Epsom Downs Racecourse and started a 25/1 outsider. The Aga Khan IV's filly Aliysa started favourite ahead of Musical Bliss, Snow Bride and Tessla, with Rambushka and Always On A Sunday among the other runners. Roseate Tern was in sixth place entering the straight and then made steady progress to finish third, beaten three lengths and a short head by Aliysa and Snow Bride.

He made steady progress in the last quarter mile to finish second, one and three-quarter length behind Trading Leather, with Ruler of the World in sixth and Libertarian eighth of the nine runners. On 14 September, Leading Light was one of eleven three-year-olds to contest the 237th running of the St Leger over fourteen and a half furlongs at Doncaster Racecourse. Wachman was doubtful about running the colt on the prevailing soft ground but decided to let him take his chance after walking the course early in the morning of the race. Starting at odds of 6/1 Galileo Rock was settled in third place before moving up on the outside to contest the lead in the straight.
She made steady progress in the straight, but failed to reach the lead and finished third to Time Charter and Diamond Shoal, beaten just under two lengths. A month after her defeat at Ascot, Sun Princess started 6/5 favourite the Yorkshire Oaks, in she was matched against Give Thanks. The Irish filly had won seven of her eight races in 1983, including the Irish Oaks, and was well- supported at 7/4. On this occasion, Sun Princess was allowed to lead from the start and was never in danger of defeat, accelerating clear of her opponents in the straight and running on with "tremendous zest" to win by four lengths from Green Lucia, with Give Thanks a further three lengths back in third.
On 3 November she started favourite against seventeen opponents as she attempted to win the Japan Cup for and unprecedented third time. Ridden again by Moore she finished fourth behind Epiphaneia, Just A Way and Spielberg. The Arima Kinen over 2500 metres at Nakayama Racecourse on 28 December attracted its customary strong field, and Gentildonna started fourth in the betting behind Gold Ship, Epiphaneia and Just A Way with the other contenders including Denim And Ruby, One And Only (Tokyo Yushun), Meisho Mambo, Fenomeno and Verxina. Verxina was the early leader before Epiphaneia took the lead 400 metres from the finish but Gentildonna made steady progress in the straight and made her bid for victory in the last 200 metres.
Templeman attempted to repeat his Epsom tactics and sent Cossack into the lead from the start. By the straight most of his rivals were struggling but Van Tromp, ridden by Job Marson made steady progress and moved alongside the favourite a furlong and a half from the finish. Marson sent his colt past the leader and Templeman, realising he was beaten, eased Cossack down in the closing stages to finish second, two lengths behind the winner but well clear of the rest. On 12 October, Cossack appeared at Newmarket for the two and a quarter mile Cesarewitch Handicap for which he was set a weight of 118 pounds, including a six-pound weight penalty for finishing second in the St Leger.
Despite heavy persecution by Henry II, the Reformed Church of France, largely Calvinist in direction, made steady progress across large sections of the nation, in the urban bourgeoisie and parts of the aristocracy, appealing to people alienated by the obduracy and the complacency of the Catholic establishment. French Protestantism, though its appeal increased under persecution, came to acquire a distinctly political character, made all the more obvious by the noble conversions of the 1550s. This had the effect of creating the preconditions for a series of destructive and intermittent conflicts, known as the Wars of Religion. The civil wars were helped along by the sudden death of Henry II in 1559, which saw the beginning of a prolonged period of weakness for the French crown.
His two victories came at Hamilton Park over a mile in June and at Wolverhampton Racecourse over nine furlongs in December, and earned his owners a combined total of less than £7,165. In August Guest, a former National Hunt jockey, tried Les Arcs in a two and a quarter mile hurdle race at Cartmel Racecourse, but the experiment proved to be a failure, as the gelding finished last of the eight finishers. He ended the season with an official rating of 74, approximately forty pounds below top class. In the following year, the gelding ran thirteen times and made steady progress, winning handicaps over seven furlongs at Musselburgh in May and Chester in June as well as finishing second on four occasions.
Margarula began her second season by being matched against older horses and male opposition in a handicap over ten furlongs at Cork Racecourse on 31 March. Carrying 120 pounds she made steady progress in the second half of the race before taking the lead inside the final furlong and winning by a length from the five-year-old gelding Murrayfield. She finished second to Solid Approach in a handicap for three-year-olds at the Curragh on 6 May before being stepped up in distance to contest the Milltown Handicap against older horses over one and a half miles at Leopardstown Racecourse six days later. As she was assigned to carry only 106 pounds the lightweight Moran again came in to take the ride.
In the 2018 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe on 7 October Waldgeist started at odds of 6/1, making him easily the best-fancied of the French-trained runners. After racing towards the rear of the field he made steady progress in the straight and came home fourth behind Enable, Sea of Class and Cloth of Stars. Four weeks later he was sent to the United States to contest the Breeders' Cup Turf at Churchill Downs for which he started second favourite but finished fifth of the thirteen runners. In December at Sha Tin Racecourse Waldgeist started favourite for the Hong Kong Vase but after being hampered in the straight he came home fifth, beaten four and a half lengths by the locally trained winner Exultant.
After being restrained by Doyle towards the rear of the eighteen-runner field in the early stages he made steady progress in the last quarter mile to finish second to Muhaarar. After a break of almost three months Limato returned to the track in the Group Two Park Stakes at Doncaster Racecourse in September. Ridden by Andrea Atzeni he started 9/2 favourite in a fifteen-runner field, with the best-fancied of his opponents being Home of the Brave (European Free Handicap), Lightning Moon (Bengough Stakes), Safety Check (Zabeel Mile) and Ivawood (Richmond Stakes). After starting slowly and overcoming some trouble in running he took the lead entering the final furlong before drawing away to win "readily" by three and three quarter lengths from Markaz.
In the mid-1990s, the library began to acquire collections of personal papers, like those of Egypt’s leading 20th century architect Hassan Fathy. From that time the library made steady acquisitions of archival resources documenting the artistic, cultural, intellectual, political, and social life of modern Egypt. Holdings include the private papers of pioneering Egyptian feminist Huda Sha'arawi, the writings of Egyptian journalist Anis Mansour, the papers of Coptic musicologist Ragheb Moftah. Photography, including numerous images of the architecture and landscape of Egypt dating to the late 19th century, represents another core holdings area. Key collections of photographs include the prints depicting Islamic architecture produced and collected by K.A.C. Creswell, and the photographic archive of Egypt’s most prominent 20th century studio and art photographer, Van Leo.
In September, Hernando was sent to Ireland for the Irish Champion Stakes at Leopardstown Racecourse, but failed to reproduce his best form, finishing seventh of the eight runners behind Pentire. In October, Hernando was sent to the United States where he finished second to Turk Passer in the Turf Classic Invitational at Belmont Park and fifth behind Northern Spur in the Breeders' Cup Turf at the same track three weeks later. On his final racecourse appearance, Hernando was sent to Tokyo Racecourse for a second attempt at the Japan Cup. Held up towards the rear of the field in the early stages, he made steady progress in the straight to finish third behind the German horse Lando and the locally trained filly Hishi Amazon.
Starting the 2.1/1 favourite he finished strongly but failed by a neck to overhaul the filly All At Sea with Hatoof two and a half lengths back in third. Three weeks later at Ascot, the colt started the 7/1 fourth choice in the betting for the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes behind Selkirk, All At Sea and Marling. After being restrained in the early stages he made steady progress in the straight and finished second in rough race, two lengths behind the four-year-old Lahib. On his final appearance Brief Truce was sent to Florida to contest the Breeders' Cup Mile at Gulfstream Park on 31 October despite previous reports that he would be aimed at the Breeders' Cup Classic.
They made steady progress for the first half of the crossing, before strong winds enabled them to kite 180 miles (290 km) to the western edge of the ice cap in a single 16-hour push. During one 10-minute period, their GPS data recorded an average speed of 23.4 knots (43.3kmh). Temperatures were unseasonably cold for the time of year, and Wells suffered frostbitten toes, seven of which had to be amputated on their return to the UK.The Telegraph The team (including Wells) descended the Russell Glacier and continued on to the ocean at the head of Kangerlussuaq Fjord, completing the crossing on May 17, 2005 in new record time of 9 days, 19 hours and 40 minutes, 8 days quicker than the previous crossing.
Ridden for the first time by Olivier Peslier he was held up in the early stages and turned into the straight in ninth place. He made steady progress in the last quarter mile to take the lead close to the finish and won by one and a quarter lengths from the three-year-old filly Dance in the Mood. Four weeks later, Zenno Rob Roy started the 1.7/1 favourite for the Japan Cup, then the world's most valuable turf race, at Tokyo racecourse, in front of a crowd of 119,362. Peslier moved the colt up to challenge for the lead in the straight and he drew clear in the closing stages to win by three lengths from Cosmo Bulk and Delta Blues.
Despite heavy persecution by Henry II, the Reformed Church of France, largely Calvinist in direction, made steady progress across large sections of the nation, in the urban bourgeoisie and parts of the aristocracy, appealing to people alienated by the obduracy and the complacency of the Catholic establishment. French Protestantism, though its appeal increased under persecution, came to acquire a distinctly political character, made all the more obvious by the noble conversions of the 1550s. This had the effect of creating the preconditions for a series of destructive and intermittent conflicts, known as the Wars of Religion. The civil wars were helped along by the sudden death of Henry II in 1559, which saw the beginning of a prolonged period of weakness for the French crown.
Kastoria's first run of 2006 saw her made odds-on favourite, ahead of the Mooresbridge Stakes winner Cairdeas in the Listed Vintage Crop Stakes at Navan Racecourse on 30 April. After racing in fifth place she made steady progress in the straight, went to the front with a furlong and a half left to run and won by a length from her stablemate Virginia Woolf. In May she started favourite for the Yorkshire Cup but finished fourth of the seven runners behind the five-year-old gelding Percussionist. On 1 July the mare started 9/4 favourite for the Curragh Cup ahead of Collier Hill and Mkuzi, a seven-year- old gelding who had won the race for the last two years.
Wings of Desire did not race as a juvenile, and although he had originally been entered for The Derby he was withdrawn from the race in March 2016. He began his racing career in a maiden race over ten furlongs at Newmarket Racecourse on 13 April when he was ridden by Robert Havlin and started the 4/1 second favourite in a ten-runner field. After being restrained towards the rear of the field he made steady progress in the last quarter mile to finish third behind Winning Story and Daqeeq. Ten days later, with Havlin again in the saddle, started odds on favourite for a maiden over one and a half miles on the synthetic Tapeta surface at Wolverhampton Racecourse.
At Doncaster Racecourse on 16 September Stradivarius started 9/2 second favourite behind Capri in what appeared to be a strong edition of the St Leger. He made steady progress on the inside in the straight and finished third, beaten half a length and a short head by Capri and Crystal Ocean with Rekindling in fourth. On his final start of the year he took on older horses again the British Champions Long Distance Cup over two miles at Ascot in October in which he finished third behind Order of St George and Torcedor, beaten a length by the winner. In the 2017 World's Best Racehorse Rankings Stradivarius was given a rating of 118, making him the 90th best racehorse in the world.
Eighteen days after his win at York, Saratoga Springs was sent to France and started the 2.7/1 favourite for the Prix du Jockey Club over 2400 metres at Chantilly Racecourse. After being held up by Kinane he made steady progress in the straight without ever looking likely to win and finished fourth behind Dream Well, Croco Rouge and Sestino. In the Derby a week later he was the least fancied of the three O'Brien runners and started a 20/1 outsider in a fifteen-runner field. Ridden by Willie Ryan he reached seventh place early in the straight but tired in the closing stages and finished tenth behind High-Rise who won by a short head and two and a half lengths from City Honours and Border Arrow.
M-Lolshan (22 May 1975 - after 1998) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. He was a tough and consistent middle distance horse who won or placed in 19 of his 22 races. After winning one of his three starts as a uvenile in 1977 he made steady improvement as a three-year-old, winning the King George V Stakes in June and the Irish St Leger in October as well as being placed in the St Leger, March Stakes and Geoffrey Freer Stakes. In 1979 he won the Grosser Preis von Baden and was placed in the Princess of Wales's Stakes, Geoffrey Freer Stakes and Preis von Europa as well as finishing fourth in both the Coronation Cup and the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes.
Scannell is described as an exciting player with searing pace and is one of many talents to emerge from Palace's academy in the last few years. He has also won the Crystal Palace Young Player of the Year Award 2008. At the end of the 2008–09 season, and still only 18 years old, Scannell was voted Championship Apprentice of the Year due to the outstanding potential he demonstrated throughout the season.SCANNELL NAMED TOP CHAMPIONSHIP APPRENTICE The Football League, 29 March 2009 He made steady progress over the following two campaigns, but missed the first half of the 2010–11 campaign because of a knee injury, that restricted him to 19 outings over the 2010–11 league campaigns although he did manage to score twice in both seasons.
For the remainder of 1989, Petite Ile was campaigned exclusively in Group One races, starting with the Irish Oaks at the Curragh in July. Starting at 14/1 in a five-runner field she made steady progress in the straight to finish third behind Alydaress and The Oaks winner Aliysa, beaten less than a length. In August she was sent to England for the Yorkshire Oaks but looked somewhat outpaced on the good to firm ground and finished third for the fourth time in five races as she came home a length and a half and a head behind Roseate Tern and Alydaress. The ground was much softer when Petite Ile took on nine opponents in the Irish St Leger over fourteen furlong at the Curragh on 23 September.
The filly was then stepped up in distance and matched against the strongest weight-for-age competition when she contested the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe over 2400 metres at Longchamp on 7 October. Starting a 40/1 outsider she made steady progress in the straight without ever looking likely to win and finished tenth, five and a quarter lengths behind the winner Enable. Thirteen days after her run in the Arc, the filly was back on the track for the Group 1 British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes over one and a half miles at Ascot Racecourse. With Moore in the saddle she started the 5/1 second favourite behind Lah Ti Dar (runner-up in the St Leger) in an eleven-runner field which also included Hydrangea, Kitesurf (Prix Vermeille) and Coronet (Ribblesdale Stakes).
In August the colt was dropped back in distance for the International Stakes over ten and a half furlongs at York Racecourse but after taking the lead half a mile out he faded in the closing stages and finished fifth behind Ezzoud. On 3 October at Longchamp Racecourse White Muzzle started a 54/1 outsider for the 72nd running of the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe. He turned into the straight in ninth place and made steady progress in the closing stages but failed by a neck to overhaul the four-year-old filly Urban Sea. For his final run of the year White Muzzle was sent to Tokyo Racecourse for the Japan Cup on 28 November in which he started the 5.4/1 second favourite but ran unplaced behind Legacy World.
Distant View made his racecourse debut in a seven furlong maiden race at Newmarket Racecourse on 14 April 1994 and started the 2/1 favourite against sixteen opponents. He took the lead approaching the final quarter mile but was overtaken and beaten one and a half lengths by the Michael Stoute-trained Zilzal Zamaan, with the pair finishing nine lengths clear of the remainder. Despite his defeat, the colt was then moved up sharply in class to contest the 2000 Guineas over the Rowley Mile at the same track two weeks later, and started a 16/1 outsider. Ridden by Willie Ryan, he made steady progress in the closing stages to finish fifth of the twenty-three runners behind Mister Baileys, Grand Lodge, Colonel Collins and State Performer.
Martin's start to the 2012 TT Festival saw him competing – in a private capacity – at the Pre-TT Classic races at the Billown Circuit, Castletown. Martin was lucky to escape injury while competing in the superbike race, and was battling for the lead of the race on a Suzuki XR69 with Jamie Coward, when he crashed on the final lap. This again led to reports of tension, as the Pre- TT races do not form any part of the main TT racing programme, and posed a potential injury risk to Martin before the TT had begun in earnest. During the practice week for the 2012 Isle of Man TT, Martin made steady progress – albeit amid rumours of differing opinions with his team's management regarding machinery set-up and the team's choice of Pirelli tyres.
283 Much of the early study of Greek vases took the form of production of albums of the images they depict, however neither D'Hancarville's nor Tischbein's folios record the shapes or attempt to supply a date and are therefore unreliable as an archaeological record. Serious attempts at scholary study made steady progress over the 19th century starting with the founding of the Instituto di Corrispondenza in Rome in 1828 (later the German Archaeological Institute), followed by Eduard Gerhard's pioneering study Auserlesene Griechische Vasenbilder (1840 to 1858), the establishment of the journal Archaeologische Zeitung in 1843 and the Ecole d'Athens 1846. It was Gerhard who first outlined the chronology we now use, namely: Orientalizing (Geometric, Archaic), Black Figure, Red Figure, Polychromatic (Hellenistic).

The Domestic Violence Act 1995Domestic Violence Act 1995 addresses domestic and family violence against women and pursuant to the act domestic violence can be charged as a criminal offence. In New Zealand the government has implemented specialist family violence courts and means- tested legal aid services which provide referral and advocacy as well as applicant support and outreach for victims of domestic violence. The New Zealand government has made steady progress in implementing fundamental criminal justice reforms that strengthen victim's rights and aims to provide greater protection for those at threat of family violence – most of whom are women victims of male violence. The social attitudes in New Zealand currently remain an impediment to combatting domestic violence and as such, is one of the major barriers in achieving gender equity in New Zealand.
Saoire made her racecourse debut in a maiden race over seven furlongs at Limerick Racecourse on 22 July in which she started at odds of 7/1 and finished second, beaten three quarters of a length by the favourite Showbiz. In a similar event at Leopardstown on 15 August she started the 11/2 second choice behind the Aidan O'Brien-trained Mona Lisa in an eighteen-runner field. Ridden by Fran Berry, she raced in mid-division early on, made steady progress in the straight and caught the favourite in the final strides to win by a short head. The filly was then stepped up sharply in class for the Group One Moyglare Stud Stakes at the Curragh and finished strongly to take third place behind Chelsea Rose and Pictavia.
She turned into the straight in fourth place and made steady progress, catching Sayyedati in the final strides and winning by a head. On 22 June, Cherokee Rose ran for the third consecutive times over Longchamp's 1400 metre course and started joint favourite with Neverneyev in the Group Three Prix de la Porte Maillot. The other three runners were Poplar Bluff, Bashaayeash (runner-up in the Prix de La Jonchere) and Sixieme Sens. The filly took the lead 200 metres out accelerated clear of her rivals to win by two and a half lengths from Bashaayeash. On 6 August at Deauville Cherokee Rose was moved up to Group One class for the first time and started the 1.7/1 favourite for the Prix Maurice de Gheest over 1300 metres.
On his racecourse debut The Last Lion started the 4/5 favourite in a ten-runner field for the Brocklesby Stakes over five furlongs at Doncaster Racecourse on 2 April. Ridden by Franny Norton he took the lead before half way, went clear of his opponents a furlong out before being eased down in the closing stages to win by one and three quarter lengths from the filly Simmy's Temple. At the end of the month the colt started 8/15 favourite for a minor race over the same distance at Ascot Racecourse. The Wesley Ward-trained filly Create A Dream led from the start and although The Last Lion made steady progress he failed by a neck to overhaul the American challenger with Deningy a short head back in third.
Cuddyer was drafted by the Minnesota Twins in the 1st round (9th pick) of the 1997 amateur draft, but did not sign until August. Cuddyer initially committed to play college baseball at Florida State but waited for the Twins' signing bonus offer to increase from $700,000 to $1.3 million before deciding to go professional. Consequently, he did not make his professional debut until 1998 when he was assigned to the Fort Wayne Wizards in the single-A Midwest League. Showing the tools that made him a first round draft pick and regularly named to the Baseball America's top minor league prospects, Cuddyer made steady progress through the Twins' minor league system and made his Major League Baseball debut on September 23, 2001 after hitting .301 with 30 home runs and 87 RBI in 141 games at AA New Britain.

In this manner TMR made steady progress through the NES library, streaming it all live on Twitch. Around April 15, 2016 near game #395 (Might and Magic Book One: The Secret of the Inner Sanctum) a modification to the self-imposed rules became necessary when he learned that another runner was also attempting a full completion of the NES library, but using extra outside help with hints and spoilers, which greatly reduced play time.
During the next two seasons, the Texans made steady progress. In 2003, they started out much as they had done in 2002 by shocking the heavily favored Dolphins in Miami to open the season. No other expansion team had ever won the season opener in each of its first two seasons. The Texans would only improve their record by one game in that season, but after a victory over the eventual NFC champion Carolina Panthers and a tough overtime loss to the eventual Super Bowl champion New England Patriots, optimism was high going into 2004 that they could compete with any team in the league. That optimism soured, however, after the Texans started the ’04 season 0-3 and for the first time fans began to question the direction in which head coach Dom Capers and the front office were taking.
He failed in two races at Saint-Cloud, being disqualified after finishing third in the Prix Jean de Chaudenay and then sweating up badly before running unplaced behind Akarad in the Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud. On 30 August, Argument was sent to Chicago to represent France in the inaugural running of the Arlington Million, then the world's most valuable horse race, and finished sixth behind John Henry. Argument's final European race came in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe on 4 October when he started at odds on 34/1 and made steady progress in the straight to finish sixth in a field of twenty-four runners behind Gold River. For his final two races, Argument competed in North America, finishing fourth behind Open Call in the Canadian International Stakes and seventh to Providential in the Hollywood Turf Cup.
Sergeant Cecil ran twice as juvenile in 2001, and showed no racing ability as he finished unplaced in maiden races at Kempton Park Racecourse on 24 September and Bath Racecourse a week later, starting at odds of 100/1 on both occasions. In the following year the gelding failed to make any impression in his first four races, running unplaced in minor staying events. After being transferred to the Devon stable of Rod Millman in late summer he showed some improvement without managing to win a race as he ran second twice and third once in his remaining five starts of the season. In 2003 the gelding made steady progress and recorded his first success at his fourteenth attempt when he took a minor handicap race over one and three quarter miles at Sandown Park on 27 May.
The filly was sent to England and moved up sharply in class to contest the Group Two Ribblesdale Stakes at Royal Ascot on 20 June in which she was ridden by Christy Roche she started the 13/2 third choice in the betting behind the Musidora Stakes winner Magnificent Style. After starting poorly she made steady progress in the straight and finished second, beaten a neck by the French-trained Tulipa, with Shemozzle in third. At the Curragh Racecourse on 14 July she was one of six fillies to contest the Irish Oaks and finished third, beaten a short head and two lengths by Dance Design and Shamadara, with The Oaks winner Lady Carla in fourth. In the Group One Yorkshire Oaks at York Racecourse on 21 August, Key Change started at odds of 7/1 in a nine-runner field.
After being restrained by Manning at the rear of the field she made steady progress in the straight to finish fourth behind Tarfshi, Wrong Key and Fraulein. Despite three consecutive defeats, Margarula was then elevated to the highest class to contest the Group 1 Irish Oaks at the Curragh on 14 July and started a 33/1 outsider in a twelve-runner field. The Aidan O'Brien-trained Quarter Moon started odds-on favourite after finishing second in both the Irish 1000 Guineas and The Oaks while the other fancied runners included Irresistible Jewel (winner of the Ribblesdale Stakes), Mellow Park (Lupe Stakes, Lancashire Oaks) and Red Rioja (C L Weld Park Stakes). Margarula was settled towards the rear of the field as the O'Brien stable's pacemaker Kournakova made the running but moved up on the inside into fifth place approaching the final turn.
British yeomanry formed part of the ANZAC Mounted Division, Australian Mounted Division and Yeomanry Mounted Divisions. With the Imperial Camel Corps Brigade, mounted troops formed the Desert Column. The whole force—known as the Egyptian Expeditionary Force (EEF)—was under the command of General Sir Archibald Murray in Cairo.MacMunn and Falls (1928), pp. 356–358 Murray made steady progress against the Turkish forces, which were defeated in the battles of Romani, Magdhaba and Rafa. However, he was repulsed at the first and second battle of Gaza in 1917. The defeat in the Second Battle of Gaza prompted the War Office to change the command of the EEF, and on 28 June 1917, Murray was replaced by General Sir Edmund Allenby, who reinvigorated the campaign.MacMunn and Falls (1928), p. 368 Allenby reorganised his forces along more conventional lines.
The Queen Elizabeth II Stakes over the round mile course at Ascot on 29 September attracted a ten-runner field and saw Tirol start favourite ahead of Shavian, Distant Relative and Linamix (Poule d'Essai des Poulains) with Markofdistinction next in the betting on 6/1. The other five runners were Green Line Express, Citidancer, Candy Glen (Premio Parioli), Call To Arms and Croupier. Markofdistinction raced towards the rear of the field as Shavian set the pace but made steady progress approaching the final turn and was switched left by Dettori to make his challenge on the outside in the straight. The closing stages of the race saw a sustained struggle between Markofdistinction and Distant Relative with the former gaining the advantage in the final strides to win by a length with the pair drawing eight lengths clear of Green Line Express in third.
Two years and one month after her last victory, La Collina started a 25/1 outsider for the Matron Stakes at Leopardstown on 7 September. The French-trained Kenhope (Prix de la Grotte) started favourite while the other ten runners included Fiesolana (Fairy Bridge Stakes), Chigun (Abu Dhabi Stakes), Caponata (Victor McCalmont Memorial Stakes), Say (Dance Design Stakes), Just Pretending (Derrinstown Stud 1,000 Guineas Trial), Scintillula, Wannabe Better (Ruby Stakes), Lily's Angel (Chartwell Fillies' Stakes) and Magical Dream (C L Weld Park Stakes). La Collina raced towards the rear of the field but made steady progress in the last quarter mile and was in fourth place when Hayes switched her to the outside approaching the final furlong. The filly produced a strong late run, gained the advantage in the final strides, and won by half a length and a short head from Lily's Angel and Say.
Preseli made her racecourse debut in a maiden race over seven furlongs at Roscommon Racecourse on 4 July and started at odds of 7/1 in a ten-runner field. She was restrained by Ahern in the early running and was still in seventh place entering the last quarter mile but then made rapid progress, took the lead inside the final furlong and won by a length from the John Oxx-trained favourite Potentille. On 22 August the filly was moved up in class for the Listed Debutante Stakes over the same distance at Leopardstown Racecourse and started 7/1 second choice in the betting behind the Aidan O'Brien-trained Amethyst who was made the 1/4 favourite. After racing fourth of the six runners she made steady progress in the straight, caught the front-running Amethyst in the final strides, and won by three quarters of a length.
Accompanied by the 31st Tank Brigade, the 15th (Scottish) Division made steady progress and by the end of the first day had overrun much of the German outpost line, although some difficulties remained in securing the flanks. In mutually-costly fighting over the following two days, a foothold was secured across the River Odon and efforts were made to expand this, by capturing tactically valuable points around the salient and moving up the 43rd (Wessex) Infantry Division. By 30 June, after German counter-attacks, some of the British forces across the river were withdrawn and the captured ground consolidated, bringing the operation to a close. Many casualties were suffered by both sides but unlike General Bernard Montgomery, the Allied commander in Normandy, Generalfeldmarschall Erwin Rommel was unable to withdraw units into reserve after the battle, as they were needed to hold the front line.
"Wireless Telegraphy that Sends No Messages Except By Wire", New York Herald, October 28, 1901, p. 4. (fultonhistory.com) Collins returned to doing his own research, investigating, in turn, wireless telephone systems that employed conduction, induction, and finally radio waves. He established a small laboratory at No. 132 South Sixth street in Philadelphia, forming a developmental company that initially was privately financed and did not sell stock to the public."Telephoning: Via Mother Earth Without Wires System Being Perfected", Honolulu Independent, September 4, 1900, p. 4. After doing initial tests within a bowl of water,"Wireless 'Phones First Real Test", New York World, July 21, 1903, p. 12. he reported that he then made steady, although somewhat limited, progress with the conduction and induction approaches, achieving transmission distances of 60 meters (200 feet) in 1899, 1.5 kilometers (1 mile) across the Delaware River in 1900, and 5 kilometers (3 miles) in 1902.
In the same year, the Vulcan Society participated in a campaign to secure the appointment of a black man to the New York City Board of Education. As the years passed and more black men entered the Department, the Society increased its community involvement and formed links with the New York City Police Department "Guardians", who were attempting to gain recognition as an official Police Department Fraternal Organization. Other civic involvement included submission of proposed amendments to the Multiple Dwelling Law in 1947 directed to the prevention of loss of life in tenement fires. In addition, basketball games were organized between the Vulcan Society and the Guardian Society, the proceeds of which were donated, $1,200 in 1948 and, $10,000 in 1949 to Sydenham Hospital in Harlem. Throughout the 1950s the Society made steady progress by adding more members and more officers to its membership rolls.
After racing in fourth place she made steady progress in the straight, caught Atasari in the final strides and won by a neck. Two weeks after her win at Leopardstown Bethrah started a 16/1 outsider in a nineteen-runner field for the Irish 1000 Guineas on good to firm ground at the Curragh. The British- trained filly Music Show started the 3/1 favourite ahead of Gile Na Greine (third in the 1000 Guineas) and Lolly For Dolly (Athasi Stakes) while the other runners included Lillie Langtry, Anna Salai (Prix de la Grotte), Termagant (Moyglare Stud Stakes), Lady Springbank (C L Weld Park Stakes, Leopardstown 1,000 Guineas Trial Stakes), Song of My Heart (Blenheim Stakes) and Atasari. The pacemakers Full of Hope and Queen of Troy made the running before Anna Salai went to the front a furlong and a half from the finish.
For his three-year-old debut Study of Man was stepped up in class and started favourite for the Group 3 Prix La Force over 1800 metres at Longchamp Racecourse on 10 April. After being restrained at the rear of the nine-runner field he made steady progress in the straight to take second place, one and a quarter lengths behind the British-trained winner Chilean. The Group 2 Prix Greffulhe over 2100 metres at Saint-Cloud Racecourse four weeks later saw the colt start 1.1/1 favourite ahead of three rivals, namely Alhadab (runner-up in the Prix Noailles), Alounak (a Listed winner in Germany) and Assiro. Study of Man took an early lead before settling in second place behind Assiro. He regained the advantage 400 metres from the finish and drew away in the closing stages to win "readily" by three and a half lengths.
Román (left) with Ki Bo-bae and Mariana Avitia during the women's individual medal ceremony at the 2012 Summer Olympics Román was selected to compete at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, entering both the women's individual and women's team events with Avitia and Valencia. After scoring 658 points in the 72-arrow ranking round Román was seeded eleventh for the elimination rounds of the individual event, and her score combined with those of Avitia and Valencia earned Mexico the fourth seed for the team competition. Although Román and her teammates were eliminated from the team event at the quarter-final stage by Japan, she made steady progress in the individual event, winning her first four matches to set up a semi-final against Avitia, who had delivered an upset against South Korea's Lee Sung-jin in the quarter- finals. Their encounter ensured Mexico its first Olympic archery medal with the winner guaranteed at least a silver medal by contesting the final.
Examples include White (Cleveland), Eclipse (Easton, Massachusetts), Cotta (Lanark, Illinois), Crouch (New Brighton, Pennsylvania), Hood (Danvers, Massachusetts, lasted just one month), Kidder (New Haven, Connecticut), Century (Syracuse, New York) and Skene (Lewiston, Maine, the company built everything but the tires). By 1903, 43 of them were gone and by the end of 1910 of those companies that were started in the decade those left were White which lasted to 1911, Conrad which lasted to 1924, Turner-Miesse of England which lasted to 1913, Morriss to 1912, Doble to 1930, Rutherford to 1912, and Pearson-Cox to 1916. Assembly line mass production by Henry Ford dramatically reduced the cost of owning a conventional automobile, was also a strong factor in the steam car's demise as the Model T was both cheap and reliable. Additionally, during the 'heyday' of steam cars, the internal combustion engine made steady gains in efficiency, matching and then surpassing the efficiency of a steam engine when the weight of a boiler is factored in.
She led soon after the start and after being headed by the Aidan O'Brien-trained Laburnum inside the final furlong she rallied to reagin the advantage and won by a neck. The Irish Oaks run behind closed doors over one and a half miles at the Curragh two weeks after her win at Naas saw Even So stepped up to the highest class and start at odds of 10/1 in and eight-runner field. Cayenne Pepper (runner up to Magical in the Pretty Polly Stakes) started favourite while the other contenders were Ennistymon (second in the Epsom Oaks), Passion (third in the Ribblesdale Stakes), Snow (Munster Oaks), Laburnum, New York Girl (Weld Park Stakes) and Yaxeni. After being settled towards the rear of the field Even So made steady progress on the outside in the straight, overtook the favoured Cayenne Pepper inside the final furlong and drew away to win by two lengths.
The civil rights movement (1896–1954) was a long, primarily nonviolent series of events to bring full civil rights and equality under the law to all Americans. The era has had a lasting impact on American society – in its tactics, the increased social and legal acceptance of civil rights, and in its exposure of the prevalence and cost of racism. Two US Supreme Court decisions in particular serve as milestones of the movement: Plessy v Ferguson, which upheld "separate but equal" racial segregation as constitutional doctrine; and Brown v Board of Education, which overturned Plessy. This was an era of new beginnings, in which some movements, such as Marcus Garvey's Universal Negro Improvement Association, were very successful but left little lasting legacy; while others, such as the NAACP's legal assault on state-sponsored segregation, achieved modest results in its early years but made steady progress on voter rights and gradually built to key victories, including in Sweatt v Painter (1950) and Brown.
The flat racing season in England was disrupted by the COVID-19 Pandemic and the 1000 Guineas was run a month later than usual on 7 June over the Rowley mile at Newmarket. Quadrilateral headed the betting with Love (ridden by Moore) starting the 4/1 joint second favourite alongside Millisle while the other twelve runners included Raffle Prize (Queen Mary Stakes), Cloak of Spirits, Boomer (Prestige Stakes), Under The Stars and Summer Romance (Empress Stakes). In rainy conditions the fillies raced on the far side of the wide, straight course with Cloak of Sprits setting the pace and Love settling in mid division to the left of the leaders towards the centre of the track. Love made steady progress approaching the last quarter mile, went to the front a furlong out and drew right away in the closing stages to win by four and a quarter lengths from Cloak of Spirits with Quadrilateral a head away in third place.
As of January, 1943, the division had about 50 percent personnel of Kazakh and Uzbek nationality, while the remainder were split between Yakut and Russian. When Don Front began its offensive to reduce the Stalingrad pocket on January 10 the 252nd had returned to 65th Army and was in the Army's reserves. During the first two days the Army's main forces made steady progress against the much-weakened VIII Corps and XIV Panzer Corps. General Batov committed the division on January 12, to the right of the 304th Division, and it soon found a gap between the two German corps, reaching the west bank of the Rossoshka River and cutting the withdrawal route of the 29th Motorized Division. It also assisted the 173rd Rifle and 51st Guards Rifle Divisions in a southward thrust of which reached to within of Karpovka by nightfall. Red Army mortarmen firing at German positions during Operation Ring, late January The following day the 252nd, along with the 173rd, was again transferred to 21st Army, which was facing weaker opposition than the 65th.
Doricles' owner Leopold de Rothschild On 1 May 1901 Doricles made his three-year-old debut in the 2000 Guineas over the Rowley mile at Nemarket and started second favourite behind Veles at odds of 4/1. After racing the leaders for most of the way he made steady headway in the last quarter mile, but was never able to get on terms with the 33/1 outsider Handicapper and finished second, beaten two lengths with Osboch in third. Two weeks later at the next Newmarket meeting the colt was moved up in distance for the Newmarket Stakes over ten furlongs and finished second, beaten a head by William the Third, with the 1000 Guineas winner Aida in third, after what was described as "one of the finest struggles ever seen". In the Epsom Derby over one and a half miles on 5 June Doricles came home seventh of the twenty- five runners behind Volodyovski. On 23 July at Liverpool the colt started 5/2 favourite for the eleven furlong Saint George Stakes, but was beaten a length into second place by Fortunatus.
Having found the track clear, it returned to the regiment, which was detained by the task before it until 22 January. On the morning of 18 January, the 2/9th Battalion approached Sanananda village through swamp from the southwest. This unlikely approach was not strongly defended and the village fell by 1:00 pm. The battalion then cleared Sanananda Point and east to the Giruwa River before nightfall. The 127th Infantry Regiment, having paused at Konombi Creek recommenced its advance on 16 January and made steady progress, taking Giruwa on 21 January and linked with the Australians already on the Giruwa River. By the evening of 17 January, the 2/12th Battalion was astride the Sanananda Track and had linked with 'A' Company of the 2/10th Battalion that had been directed to patrol to the track from Killerton village earlier. On 18 January, it advanced north toward Sanananda but the battalion met determined resistance that could not be overcome that day despite three attacks. On 19 January, positions on the western side of the track were taken by 'A' Company of the 2/10th Battalion, who were detached temporarily to the 2/12th Battalion.
In a campaign that had its highs, notably in the form of victories against AFC Totton, Cambridge City and eventual champions Brackley, Hitchin eventually finished 14th. Similarly, Frendo's 44 goals in 48 appearances during the 2012-13 campaign not only helped Hitchin to a 13th-place finish in the league but won him the award of Non-League's top scorer, beating Altrincham's Damian Reeves by 1 goal. His hat-trick on the last day of the season away to Bedford meant Frendo had scored over 100 goals for Hitchin in 3 seasons. At the end of that season, manager Carl Williams stepped down. Former player Mark Burke was appointed manager in the summer of 2013 and the previous side almost entirely moved on. Despite this Burke and his assistant Adam Parker recruited some new young talent and finished in a creditable 13th position. Hitchin Town have made steady progress in the Southern League Premier Division in the last 5 seasons. They have finished 14th, 13th, 13th and 9th, before reaching a best-ever position in the league of 3rd in 2015-16. This saw them qualify for the play- offs but they lost their semi-final at Top Field 3-2 to Hungerford Town, having held a 2-0 lead in front of a crowd of 1305.
After returning from maternity leave, Fraser-Pryce (centre) won an unprecedented fourth 100 m world title in 10.71 s, becoming the fastest mother in history. After ending her 2018 season ranked 10th in the world in the 100 m, Fraser-Pryce made steady progress with her training into the 2019 season. At the Jamaican Championships in June, she again finished second to Elaine Thompson in both the 100 m and the 200 m. Although Thompson won by a comfortable margin in the 200 m, the 100 m final ended with both sprinters sharing the world-leading time of 10.73 s, and Thompson declared the winner in a photo finish. Fraser-Pryce’s 10.73 s in this race became the fastest non-winning time in history. Fraser-Pryce returned to the top of women's sprinting for the remainder of the 2019 season, running at close to personal best times in the 100 m, and recording three of the five fastest times of the year. In August, she won 200 m gold at the 2019 Pan American Games, setting a new championship record of 22.43 s (she did not contest the 100 m). However, after losing to Thompson at the Jamaican Championships in June, the two did not meet until the 2019 Doha World Championships, in one of the event's most highly anticipated showdowns.
