The organisational performance of National Disability Sport Organisations during a time of austerity: A resource dependence theory perspective

Austerity measures implemented by the UK Coalition government have had a negative impact on disabled people (Cross 2013). This article utilises the resource dependence theory to explore the challenges national disability sport organisations (NDSOs) have faced in their attempts to achieve growth, whilst discussing some of the tactics used to overcome these challenges. Secondary quantitative data from the 2011-2015 NDSO accounts was analysed, which suggests increased income has been accompanied by increased cost, with fluctuations between surpluses and deficits across the financial years. Funding from Sport England, the government body for grassroots sport in England, was either awarded for the first time or increased. Nine in-depth interviews were conducted with senior managers from seven NDSOs, the English Federation of Disability Sport, and Sport England. It was found austerity presented challenges for the NDSOs in accessing charitable grants and funding, and that some disabled people were fearful of losing their disability benefits if they were seen to be active. The management of relationships with national governing bodies and county sport partnerships was also a challenge. The formation of alliances, the building up of financial reserves, and the generation of knowledge, have been some of the tactics used by the NDSOs in the management of their resources. This research highlights how some NDSOs have achieved growth amid an uncertain economic backdrop, and how these organisations have managed their scarce resources

広島の青年教師が伝えた1912年ストックホルム・オリンピック─広陵中学校教諭，藤重源が遺した「瑞典通信」をめぐって─

日本が初めて参加したオリンピックは1912年第5回ストックホルム大会である。急造の大日本体育協会はわずか4人の選手団（役員2，選手2）で編成した。明治のスポーツ黎明期とあって，2選手の成績に見るべきものはなく，惨敗であった。初のオリンピックを視察するため，広島から自費でスウェーデンへ渡航したのが私立広陵中学の体育教諭，藤重源（ふじしげ・はじめ）だった。22歳の若い教師は朝日新聞特約通信員の肩書を手に入れて連日熱戦を見守った。この時，邦人記者は読売，大阪毎日の2人しかいなかった。藤重は大会後，広陵中学校の校内雑誌「広陵」へ大会印象記「瑞典通信」を書き送った。11,000字に達するレポートは，オリンピックの壮大さ，欧米選手の力感を伝える一方で，日本スポーツ界の未熟さを指摘し，体育思想普及の必要性を訴えた。破天荒ともいえる行動に出た若手教師は帰国することなく，アメリカに渡り家族を得て永住した。戦中の収容所生活などを経て帰化し81年，91歳で死去した。藤重の存在は34年前，筆者が中国新聞で記事化したが，本稿では改めて「通信」を詳述し，新たに判明した渡米後の足取りなどを加筆した。研究ノー

Load Distribution for Scalable Web Servers:

The 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games were the first to have an official Web site. This site had more than 60 Web server hosts, spread across 5 locations in 4 countries, and registered over 192 million hits during the 17 days of the games. This paper describes some of the challenges of building, operating and managing such a large distributed system. In particular, it outlines the use of novel TCP/IP technologies for sharing the load of HTTP requests across local and global servers. Using these technologies enabled us to build a scalable distributed Web server site that was able to comfortably support a huge demand. We also describe some of the management tools used for monitoring the system, logging HTTP requests, and providing secure access to system resources. 1 Introduction The 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games Web site, www.atlanta.olympic.org, was created and operated by IBM. The name WOMplex 1 was used as the umbrella code-name to describe a combination of technologies that included conte..
