 natural refuges and escapes. The hares are either driven onto the coursing ground by beaters or are “walked-up” as in rough shooting.
It’s a lie: By the Rules of the National Coursing Club a coursing ground must not be enclosed.
It’s a lie: Being pursued is as natural to a hare as breathing to a human being. Their speed, agility and extraordinary circle of vision have evolved as surely to avoid capture as their pursuers have evolved in the opposite direction. Research has shown that coursed hares, when they have escaped, return immediately to the activity in which they were engaged when disturbed; sleeping, feeding etc.
It’s a lie: Apart from coarse fishing no country sport is more truly “popular” than coursing. Huge crowds attend the Waterloo Cup, coursing’s premier event, and the dogs are owned by a real cross- section of the population.
It’s a lie: Coursing is a public sport with nothing to hide. Meetings are publicised in the national racing paper the “Racing Post”. Of all country sports coursing enjoys the most sophisticated national administration, and the National Coursing Club has strictly regulated the sport for over 150 years.
The above was written before the Ban of Hunting in the UK was enforced. Now there is no legal coursing and much of the above has been proved all too correct – hares are far less abundant, even in areas where previously they were in no danger, because they have been targeted more than before. In the last year of legal coursing, 180 hares were killed in 1,462 courses on 71 days on 10 purely coursing estates. The following year 8,000 hares were shot on those same estates. The ‘illegal coursing’, or ‘poaching’ has not stopped – as we said it would not.The Motorola Moto X Style was released in 2015 in the month of July.

 Speleologists discover new caves in Slovenia every year, and the number of recorded ones now amounts to more than 8,000 with 20 of them being show caves. The appearance and soul or the Karst are characterized by stone, which has been shaped both by water and local inhabitants for centuries.
The trail leads to tiny hilltop village of Štanjel, one of the oldest settlements in the region, known for its castle and the beautiful Ferrari Garden. Featuring traditional houses built in stone, Štanjel is a real showpiece of Karst architecture and culture. When cycling further towards Pliskovica, a stop in Prosciuterria Ščuka is a must. In the boutique family-owned prosciutto drying facility they use a classical seasoning process, which results in high-quality and aromatic authentic products.
The road passes the famous Lipica Stud Farm, home to the noble Lipizzaner horses since 1580, before reaching the final destination of the day, the lovely village of Lokev.

On the 20th of September, before the professional holiday, the industrial engineers of the Chelyabinsk region met to discuss the sector issues and prospects, to make the conclusions and to relate about the achievements.
The spokespersons of regional public sector unions and organizations participated in the conference besides the representatives of the leading machine building enterprises of the region: Industrial Development Fund, Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, Russian Engineering Union and All-Russian Organization of Small and Medium Business Opora Russia.
‘There is no doubt that there is a serious decline in the machine building sector. The market is changing, and the main thing is to find your own sphere of activity, to find that, what isn’t offered yet. Before the main direction was for us the manufacture of building cranes, but in this year the themes changed. We began to work with industry sector, to work more with the projects according to the clients’ requests.
Now we have non-core orders: we actively manufacture metalwares, produce industry.: Pepsi Battle of the Bands(BoB) rose above its co-operate patronage; proving to be an innovative and much-needed boost for the melodious fabrication in Pakistan.
The televised music competition brought together an accomplished jury, comprising Meesha Shafi, founding member of Vital Signs, Shahi Hasan, Fawad Khan, who also marked his return to music with the show and also played with former band, EP, and last but certainly not the least, Atif Aslam.
The show came to an end last weekend when the bluesy budding band, Kashmir took the prize home at the Grand Finale. Reflecting on the progression of the music groups who took part and a monumental resurrection of the band-culture in Pakistan, I catch up with the eminent and enigmatic Atif Aslam as he opens up about his journey with BoB, looking back at his yesteryears band Jal and what he has in store next.
â€œI took it up because I genuinely wanted to revive the music industry,â€ he says, on a hopeful note as we begin our conversation on what made him agree to mentor the young blood. Contrary to his reserved image, Aslam was undoubtedly the most interactive judge on the panel and the compassion with which he speaks tells us why.
â€œA lot of my seniors never respected my work, initially in my early days, so I just feel itâ€™s high time we appreciate and support the budding talent,â€ he confessed.
Though Atif was unable to accompany the judges during the try-outs, participants were selected after extensive auditions that took place nationwide, but he says he thoroughly enjoyed the raw, yet modern music after joining in. â€œI think they (the bands) were fantastic. Iâ€™m going to miss this show, the bands, and the boys. It just gives me a lot of happiness knowing theyâ€™re going to make it big, one fine day,â€ he adds, as a mellow, yet genuine smile lights up his face.
Teaser of Fawad Khanâ€™s comeback song is out and it also features Atif Aslam!
While one cannot think of a better judging body, the irony, however, is that all of them set out to encourage aspiring bands while having parted ways from their own, earlier on. Meesha started off with Farhad Humayunâ€™s band Overload, Fawad, though still cordial with his band-mates, turned to acting and Atifâ€™s very public spat with Jalâ€™s Goher Mumtaz made headlines. He has no qualms of speaking about his departure from the now-impassive cluster.
â€œHonestly, the most amazing thing thatâ€™s happened to me was the breaking of my band. Itâ€™s not your personal choice; itâ€™s not something you can control. Thereâ€™s a lot that one contemplates, you know someoneâ€™s ego may come into play or the lack of respect for one another,â€ he says, unabashedly, and on a rather personal note.
Aslam concludes our brief, yet divulging conversation with some precious words of wisdom for the BoB entrants, and sees a bright future ahead of them. â€œTheyâ€™ve all become stars now, and I feel their journey, in the outside world,
