This article is a brief historical description of events involving the activities in sport psychology associated with the 1984 Olympics. For the first time, systematic services in sport psychology were provided to Winter and Summer Olympic teams, and such services are described. Some illustrations of the athletes' response to these services are also provided. Finally, the article summarizes the opinions of the professionals who provided such services, in terms of recommendations for the future development of sport psychology.

Herein, we have successfully unveiled a simple and inexpensive removable aliphatic template as an effective DG template in promoting remote <i>meta</i>-C−H olefination of arenes for the first time. Remarkably, the template was achieved in excellent yields in just two steps and without column chromatography purification. The protocol is an efficient, economical and practical approach in achieving <i>meta</i>-C−H olefination in good to excellent isolated yields and high levels of <i>meta</i>-selectivity under mild conditions. A wide variety of substituted arenes and olefin coupling partners are well tolerated in this reaction. Moreover, the aliphatic template is found to be advantageous due to its easy synthesis, easy installation/removal, and recycle. We believe that this strategy offers new opportunities for the future development of new DG templates to promote site-selective C−H functionalizations.

Through the evolution of the conscious mind in the human species, nature became aware of itself and can thus, for the first time in more than three billion years of natural evolution, influence and even, to some degree, take control of its own future development according to intentional goals. Since these goals are, at the same time, inevitably our own wishful visions, our species becomes not only nature's managing agent but also morally responsible for the future of nature, including our own future. This essay tries to draw conclusions from evolutionary, ecological, cultural, anthropological and moral perspectives. It not only asks about the place of human beings in nature as some kind of alien intruder, but seeks to understand human cultural evolution as part of nature, as the consequent continuation of natural evolution having become not only self-organized but self-guided and responsibly self-controlled.

This paper,first presented on 21 October 1995 at ajoint seminar ofthe Scottish Law Commission and the Faculty of Law, University of Edinburgh, on the subject of breach of contract, considers the future development of the law in this area, first by considering its history and current state in comparative terms and drawing the conclusion that it is characterised by a mixture of Civilian and Common Law elements; second, by comparing Scots law with the provisions on breach contained in recently published proposals for a harmonised law of contract (the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts, the Principles of European Contract Law prepared by the Lando Commission, and the draft “code”for the United Kingdom prepared on behalf of the English Law Commission by Harvey McGregor in the late 1960s) and in international conventions on the sale of goods. Although Scots law emerges reasonably wellfrom this exercise, there are a number of points to be taken on board in any future reform, as well as some insights into important underlying principles.
