Year Of Birth Missing (living People)
A year or annus is the orbital period of a planetary body, for example, the Earth, moving in its orbit around the Sun. Due to the Earth's axial tilt, the course of a year sees the passing of the seasons, marked by change in weather, the hours of daylight, and, consequently, vegetation and soil fertility. In temperate and subpolar regions around the planet, four seasons are generally recognized: spring, summer, autumn and winter. In tropical and subtropical regions, several geographical sectors do not present defined seasons; but in the seasonal tropics, the annual wet and dry seasons are recognized and tracked. A calendar year is an approximation of the number of days of the Earth's orbital period, as counted in a given calendar. The Gregorian calendar, or modern calendar, presents its calendar year to be either a common year of 365 days or a leap year of 366 days, as do the Julian calendars. For the Gregorian calendar, the average length of the calendar year (the ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

SRA-shooting
SRA-shooting is a shooting sport based on the concept of practical shooting. It originates from Finland. Its whole name is ''sovellettu reserviläisammunta'' and translates as ''applied reservists' shooting''. Its sport style is similar to International Practical Shooting Confederation, IPSC, since the objective of SRA is to develop the weapon's handling and marksmanship skills of the athlete. The weapon types used in SRA are rifle, pistol, shotgun, and sniper rifle - with emphasis on rifle and pistol. The rules of the sport are regulated by the Finnish Reservist Sports Federation (RESUL). The International Federation SRA is the global governing body of the sport. Whilst in IPSC shooting, it is strictly forbidden to wear any military-style clothes except in cases where the competitor is in active service. In SRA, the military clothing style and overall look is promoted. Unlike IPSC, where guns are divided in different divisions by structure and power, SRA concentrates primarily on f ...

Steel Challenge
The Steel Challenge is a speed shooting competition governed by thSteel Challenge Shooting Association(SCSA) that consists of eight standardized stages with steel targets in three sizes; small circular, large circular and rectangular targets. Competitors are scored solely by the time it takes them to complete each stage, and the match winner is the competitor with the lowest overall time. Steel Challenge has many similarities with IPSC, but has a more TV- and spectator friendly format because of simpler rules and the stages being the same from year to year. Because of this, Steel Challenge has become a place where speed records are set and broken. The annual World Championship called the World Speed Shooting Championships (WSSC) was held in Frostproof, Florida (2012 and 2013), St. George, Utah (2014), San Luis Obispo, California (2015 - 2017), Talladega, Alabama (2018 - 2023) and draws shooters from around the world.
