	Diving - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In tower events, competitors are allowed to perform their dives on either the five, seven and a half (generally just called seven) or ten metre towers, although high level meets, including the Olympic Games and world championships, usually require all dives to be executed from the ten metre.
		Dives involving a twist during the somersault may be either front, back, reverse or (rarely) inward, but are considered a fifth direction altogether.
		The calculation of each dive's DD is based on the number of somersaults and twists the dive entails, the direction, the position, and the board or platform it is performed from.

	INTERNATIONAL OLYMPIC COMMITTEE - SPORTS
		It was simply diving, as we know it today, and indeed, the 1996 programme did not change a blink from the 1924 programme.
		Now here comes some truly fancy diving: synchronised diving, or diving in pairs, which was introduced in the Sydney 2000 Games, doubling the programme in more than one way.
		The traditional men's and women's 10-metre platform and three-metre springboard diving events were repeated for the synchronised portion, with judges assessing both individual dives and synchronisation.

	Dumpster Diving Encyclopedia Article @ BareHands.com (Bare Hands) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Dumpster diving, also called dumpstering, binning, trashing, garbing, or garbage gleaning is a North American term to describe the practice of rummaging through commercial or residential trash to find useful free items that have been discarded.
		Dumpster diving is a tool for garbologists, who study the sociology and archeology of trash in modern life.
		Supposedly, information diving was more common in the 1980s due to lax security; when businesses became aware of the need for increased security in the early 1990s, sensitive documents were shredded before being placed in dumpsters.

	Cave Diving Encyclopedia Article @ LivingDangerously.com (Living Dangerously) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Cave diving is a type of technical diving in which specialized SCUBA equipment is used to enable the exploration of natural or artificial caves which are at least partially filled with water.
		This was the normal diving equipment and methods until approximately 1960 when Mike Wooding (and others) developed new techniques using wetsuits (which provide both insulation and buoyancy compensation), twin open-circuit SCUBA air systems, helmet-mounted lights and free-swimming with fins.
		The definitive volume on the history of UK cave diving is Martyn Farr's The Darkness Beckons, ISBN 0-939748-32-0, which has been through 2 editions (1980, 1991) and was written by a major figure in UK diving at a time when many of the original participants were still alive and available for interview.
