Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 1999 Week 3 Hansard (24 March) Page 806 I am a little surprised to see Mr Whalan advocating so forcefully a different position now, given his total commitment to fixing the goalposts deep in concrete in 1989. Much was said in the letter about shifting the goalposts, but in fact the goalposts were not shifted. Mr Whalan always acts in the best interests of his clients, and I am sure that he will be very successful on that score because it is well known that he does. www.hansard.act.gov.au /Hansard/1999/week03/806.htm   (435 words)

House of Commons Hansard Debates for 25 Jan 2000 (pt 2) A seven-year-old boy in Dewsbury was killed when free-standing goalposts toppled over, causing a fatal blow to his head, after children had been swinging on the crossbar. Friend the Member for Dewsbury for showing that to me. The goalposts were originally full-sized posts and had concreted into the ground, but they had been taken down and adapted. Harrod UK has developed technical solutions to make the posts safe, particularly with the use of anchors, but also with prominent labels on the equipment and bold instruction leaflets. www.parliament.the-stationery-office.co.uk /pa/cm199900/cmhansrd/vo000125/halltext/00125h02.htm   (10056 words)

Cypher - Review by Garreth Murphy - entertainment ireland, Cinema, Film Reviews The paranoid tone is almost suffocating throughout, and Natali seems to delight in shifting the goalposts whenever it suits him, setting things off in a sterile, futuristic, and bleached out environment. A deeply stylised effort, 'Cypher' looks and acts like a slice of Kubrick lite by way of Phillip K. Dick on bad trip. Northam does some of his best work in years, delivering a performance which rolls around the film, using everything that Natali can throw at him. entertainment.ie /movie_review/Cypher/2970.htm   (296 words)

Australian rules football - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch A player who cleanly catches a kicked ball that has travelled more than 15 metres without anyone else touching it — called a mark — is entitled to an unimpeded kick of the ball, to advance his team towards their goalposts. Players are allowed to tackle the player with the ball and impede opposition players from tackling their teammates, but not to deliberately strike an opponent (though pushing the margins of these rules is often a substantial part of the game).
