Peter Dimmock nike air force 1 high red , who played a seminal role in the spread of television in Britain by televising Queen Elizabeth II's coronation in 1953, has died aged 94, the BBC said Saturday.
Dimmock persuaded the necessary powers that for the first time, television cameras should be allowed into Westminster Abbey for the coronation service - and thereby ensured an explosion in the popularity of television in Britain.
He also organized the British Broadcasting Corporation's coverage of Winston Churchill's funeral in 1965 and was the inaugural presenter of many key sports programs.
"Peter Dimmock was a true pioneer of broadcasting nike air force 1 high black suede ," said BBC director-general Tony Hall.
"As the man who oversaw coverage of the queen's coronation he was also responsible for a seminal moment in British broadcasting history."
Paul Fox, the former controller of the main BBC One TV channel, said: "It was Peter Dimmock who introduced the British public to television.
"He persuaded the people who mattered that the coronation service of the queen should be televised, thereby ensuring the arrival of television in this country.
"More than 20 million watched the coronation nike air force 1 high sale , the majority outside their homes. Within 12 months, television licences had doubled."
A former Royal Air Force flight lieutenant, Dimmock worked for the BBC for 31 years.
The greatest evolutionary change in professional sports over the past decade has been the introduction of analytics.
In a nutshell, this concept refers to the use of anti-traditional nike air force 1 low pink womens , hyper-specific statistical analyses to build teams and compensate players in a statistically rational manner.
Once upon a time, the field of sports analytics was considered a fringe endeavor. In 1977, a man named Bill James was viewed as a kook who self-published a quirky journal and sold it to a small, loyal nike air force 1 low grey womens , equally kooky group of subscribers.
Today, James works for the Boston Red Sox, a team that has won three World Series titles since 2003. Before the Red Sox hired James, the team had gone 86 years without winning MLB's ultimate prize.
Not surprisingly nike air force 1 low black mens , James' protégées currently permeate baseball's front offices. Most famously, former Red Sox GM Theo Epstein has recently been charged with the Herculean task of helping the hapless Chicago Cubs (0 for 106 years and counting) win the World Series.
Even more impressive is the impact James' research has had on other sports. Professional football and basketball, specifically, have begun to follow baseball's lead nike air force 1 low white womens , albeit reluctantly.
Innovative omelets aren't made without breaking more than a few philosophically entrenched eggs. Old school baseball scouts have - both figuratively and literally - spit tobacco onto the concept of Moneyball.
And NBA analyst Charles Barkley, whose bombastic delivery belies his thoughtful rhetorical mind-set, had this to say, "I've always believed analytics was crap."
While Barkley usually contributes a voice of reason to ridiculous public debates nike air force 1 low sale , he's probably wrong in this case.
Last week, the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference gave the San Antonio Spurs an award for essentially using analytics to win two of the past three NBA championships. (For whatever it's worth, effective free throw shooting would have made that number three-for-three.)
Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, a former US military member and current coaching legend nike air force 1 clearance , had this to say about the award, "I had no idea there was such a conference or such an award … the world is amazing."
Amazing? Yes. Data-driven? Yes. Here to stay? YES.
Brazilian women's volleyball national team player Natalia has been banned for sixty days by Brazil's sports tribunal for doping Tuesday.
Natalia tested positive for banned substance prednisolone during a national league match in March.
She had been initially cleared in July but the tribunal found her guilty on appeal Tuesday, saying there were irregularities in the first trial.
RIO DE JANEIRO, Oct. 18 (Xinhua) -- Brazilian President Michel Temer played down on Tuesday the corruption charges against several of his cabinet members.
The president, who is now on a three-day visit to Japan through Thursday, said that the charges against his ministers are minor, describing them as "simply allegations."
He said the government will wait and see whether the cases against his ministers move forward to a stage where it need to take action.
"These things need to be consolidated. If they do consolidate, then the government will see what it will do," said Temer.
So far, several high-profile names of the Temer administration have been involved into the Federal Police's Carwash Operation, which is investigating corruption conducts in state-run energy giant Petrobras and other government contracts.
Temer himself has also been mentioned by some accused of being bribe takers.
Just in the past days, two more charges were added during the testimonies of some defendants, who reportedly turned in evidence to the State.
Moreira Franco, executive secretary of the Investment Partnerships Program, allegedly took 3 million reals (941,600 U.S. dollars) in bribes in 2014.
Sports Minister Eduardo Picciani was accused of money laundering through his family's company engaged in the sale of overpriced cattle.
