Murray Walker at Damerham Grand Prix


Now a bit of fun. A demonstration of how to shoot a film un-professionally, using an iphone as the camera :-) Every summer in Damerham, a small village in the south of England, lords and and ladies, gentlemen and children get together for the Damerham Grand Prix. The normally quiet countryside around the borders of Hampshire, Dorset and Wiltshire comes alive with shrieks and squeals as part of a major new sporting event… Pig Racing! You know an event has truly reached major-league status when the commentator is none other than the BBC veteran and Formula 1′s favourite pundit, Murray Walker, who needs no introduction to the racing fan. In this short video Murray is showing us why he is the best racing commentator there is whether you race Formula 1 cars or pigs. The shrieks are from the spectators and the squeals by the competitors. Filmed on location with iphone 3GS. Camera operator Michael J Whealey Edited by Riza N Pacalioglu Music by DJ Mike Wheeler Produced and Copyrighted by Silver Productions Ltd. (p) (c) 2009

Macau tour: 7 unique museums in Macau you should try to visit

Macau is particularly known as “the Vegas of the orient” and millions of travelers visit its grandiose casinos every yearâ?¦ It is, therefore, slightly odd to write about Macau as a “city of museums”, but while it is true that most of the city’s museums are not even as big as a single corner in The Louvre or The Metropolitan, some of them are very unique and worth visiting.

This article will take you through seven unique museums that you should try to visit, when in Macau.

1)     The Macau Grand Prix Museum: Naturally, I should have started an article about “museums in Macau” with the Museum of Macau itself, however, I decided to start it with the Macau Grand Prix Museum, as this small and well presented museum appeals to almost everybody, including those who normally don’t find museums interestingâ?¦

Macau Grand Prix has been the city’s best known international event for more than fifty years now, and the “Guia Circuit” has gained a reputation as the world’s most demanding street track.

In the museum, you can see all these celebrated cars and bikes that actually made history on Macau Grand Prix, from real oldies to modern “road killers” that can speed as fast as an airplaneâ?¦ Expectedly, there is a lot of interesting info about the drivers who once ruled the circuit, including well known names like Ayrton Senna, Michael and Ralf Schumacher, and David Coulthard, among others…

The small Wine Museum, next door, is also worth visiting (Especially since you are there anyway…). Macau has absolutely nothing to do with wine production, but it was colonized for hundreds of years by Portugal, which is a significant wine countryâ?¦ The museum takes the visitor through the history of wine production, techniques and technology, culture and even wine-related festivals and customs… and as expected, there is a bit of wine tasting tooâ?¦

2) The handover Gifts Museum of Macau is housed in an ultra modern building that stands exactly where the 1999 handover ceremony took place, and showcases all those gifts that were given to Macau and its people by the different councils of China.  Each of the gifts is a true piece of art, unique to the region from where it came, and reflects the special skills of this region’s people.

3) Museum of Macau: Housed in what used to be Macau’s strongest fort, the Museum of Macau tells the fascinating story of this unique city, and while it might lack the impressive features that some “national museums” around the world have, it compensates for it with very interesting exhibits and a somewhat homey ambience that is so much what Macau is all about.

4) Macau Maritime Museum: There are definitely better maritime museums in the world than this one, but the one of Macau has a very nice collection of model replicas of Old Portuguese and Chinese vessels, that is worth seeing.  The ancient navigation instrument they showcase is also interesting.

5) The Fire Services Museum of Macau (Museu dos Bombeiros): This tiny museum is housed in a historic 1920s building that once served as the headquarters of Macau Fire Services, and although you won’t need more than 15 â?? 20 minutes to cover it, vintage fire engines will always have their charmâ?¦

6) Taipa Houses Museum (Casas Museu da Taipa) comprises a row of five beautiful colonial manor houses, which used to accommodate well heeled Portuguese families back in the 1920s.  Today, each of the houses displays another theme and among the five, The Macanese house is possibly the most interesting, as it gives a glimpse into the day-to-day life of a rich Macanese family at the beginning of the 20th century, including all the antique furniture, the utensils and the other bits and pieces…

7) Lin Zexu Memorial Museum is a very small museum, located in the north of Macau, near the Canidrome, and although it’s not really big or sophisticated, it is well worth visiting, especially if you like history,  as it gives a glimpse to one of modern history’s most fascinating times.

The museum focuses on the story of Lin Zexu: A high-ranking official during the Qing Dynasty, who is mostly remembered for his stubborn struggle against opium smuggling by the British into Guangzhou, a struggle that has triggered the outbreak of the famous First Opium War, between 1839 and 1842.

Rallying and Motorsports – Behind the Scene

But one particular movie stood out because of its plot. The car joins the Monte Carlo rally. As a precocious little kid, I also recall asking my parents what rallying meant? And my mother, who instilled in me the discipline of doing research at an early age told me, “Dear, why don’t you look it up at the dictionary?” That was how I found out about rallying as a sport, which has flourished to this day.

And there are more interesting facts that I have discovered about the sport of rallying. Its origin can be traced back to the 1894 Paris-Rouen Horseless Carriage Competition when people who have their own visions of what a “horseless carriage” should look like entered the contest and winners were ascertained by the judges who rode in each car.

Eventually, it turned into a period of city to city road races primarily in France and it started components associated with rallying competitions today, individual start times with carraces against the clock, time keeping at beginning and starting areas in each town along the route and driving over long distances of rough and unpaved roads.

The Monte Carlo Rally started in 1911 by Prince Albert and takes place in Monaco. It is the first race for the FIA World Rally Championships. Winning a rally gives a car prestige and credibility in terms of a car’s performance under tough and demanding driving conditions.

I often wonder why is there so much money poured in by sponsors into motorsports. Even if gas prices became unreasonably high last year due to a host of several factors I couldn’t understand its importance. I figured if oil prices didn’t go down to the levels that it is today, although its still high, will it still be logical to hold rallying events or any other motorsports for that matter? Wouldn’t the sport be hurt and greatly affected if oil prices skyrocketed to for example $200 a barrel?

Then I saw the print ad for one of the big oil companies. The add states that it is through these races, whether it’s rallying or formula one racing, that  the car manufacturers test their latest improvements in their respective vehicles, with these changes brought about by the manufacturer’s research and development team.  And not only are the car manufacturers who benefit from this but also oil companies and tire makers. So, to win in any motorsport, the car who has the right balance in its engine make, tire selection and amount of fuel in order to meet the demands of the track conditions or the graveled road shall ultimately win the race.

Consumers ultimately, benefit the most. Improvements that were proven to be reliable are then passed to buyers of new automobiles as car manufacturers add these changes to make a better product overall in terms of a vehicle’s safety attributes, performance under all conditions and gas consumption.

So next time you open the door of your new car, remember to thank those motorsport drivers who risk their lives for a few hours of adrenalin rush and made your car safe for you to use. That is if one doesn’t drink and drive! Check out Motor Sports results at ScoresPro.com.
