WELLINGTON Uomo Air Max 97 Ultra Nere Italia , Jan. 16 (Xinhua) -- New Zealand's highest peak is about to get officially shorter, researchers announced Thursday.


The summit of Aoraki-Mount Cook was actually 30 meters below the current official height of 3 Acquistare Uomo Air Max 97 KPU Nere ,754 meters above sea level, according to researchers from Otago University's National School of Surveying.


Analysis of high accuracy GPS data obtained during a climbing expedition in November last year revealed it was actually only 3 Uomo Air Max 97 KPU Grigie Vendita , 724 meters tall at its highest point.


The discrepancy between the old height, which was estimated from aerial photography immediately after a massive rock-ice collapse in December 1991 Uomo Nike Vapormax Flyknit Rosse Nere Offerta , and the new height could be explained by a two-decade reshaping of the originally thick ice cap, project leader Dr. Pascal Sirguey said in a statement.


"By carefully studying photos taken after the collapse Uomo Nike Vapormax Flyknit Blu Bianche Italia , it appears that there was still a relatively thick ice cap, which was most likely out of balance with the new shape of the summit ridge. As a result the ice cap has been subject to erosion over the past 20 years Uomo Nike Vapormax KPU TPU Marina Bianche Saldi ," said Sirguey.


"While the effects of climate change may spring to mind as an explanation, it is probably a case of a simple change in the geomorphology of the mountain."

MEXICO CITY, July 9 (Xinhua) -- Holding the first Olympic Games of the modern era, made a dream largely pursued by Baron Pierre de Coubertin come true. The baron had been enthusiastic about the idea of resurrecting the Olympics after it had been forgotten about for 1,500 years.


In 1852, with an increasing interest for sporting events from Europe, a group of German archaeologists carried out excavations on the ancient Greek city of Olympia in order to better understand the history of the Olympic Games from Classical Greece.


In 1894, Coubertin traveled to Olympia and decided to initiate the project of rescuing and updating the Olympics.


The same year, the International Olympic Committee carried out its first sessions in Paris, where it was decided that Athens should be the venue for the first modern Games.


The first Olympics, officially known as Games of the I Olympiad, only included nine sports encompassing 10 disciplines and 43 events: athletics, cycling, fencing, gymnastics, sailing, shooting, swimming, tennis, weightlifting and wrestling.


The first Games were inaugurated in the Panathenaic Stadium in Athens on April 6, 1896, and they came to an end on April 15. At the sporting event, 241 athletes participated, all men, from 14 countries.


In the Opening Ceremony, King George I of Greece officially opened the competition saying: "I declare the opening of the first international Olympic Games in Athens." This was because the act of lighting the Olympic Flame from the Torch did not exist at this point.


During the contest, silver medals and olive branches were handed out to those who finished first and the second-placed received a copper medal and a laurel branch. All participants received commemorative certificates.


Afterwards, the Games were so successful that Coubertin proposed the sporting event rotate all over the world and take place every four years.


United States athlete James Connolly's winning triple jump is among the sporting achievements worthy of note during the first edition of the Games as he was the first Olympic champion in the modern era.


Also, the British Launceston Elliot won the one-hand weightlifting category, making him the first Olympic champion from the United Kingdom and one of the most popular sportsmen from his country.


For the hosts, the most important event was the marathon in light of its historic significance and their representatives did not let them down. Spyridon Luis, 24, took the lead four kilometers from the finish line and won the race with a time of two hours 58 minutes and 50 seconds. Second place, another Greek athlete, crossed the finish line over seven minutes later.


As a historic anecdote, it was recorded that the Greek long-distance runner who worked as a water carrier ran wearing shoes that had been donated to him by his neighbors in his hometown.


The swimming categories took place in the open sea, in the Bay of Zea, because the organizers had refused to spend money on building a special stadium. The swimmers were transported by boat to the starting line, 100, 500 and 1,200 meters from the beach.


Hungarian swimmer Alfred "Hajos" Guttmann, 18, won the 100 and 1,200 meters freestyle categories. The glory that "Hajos" brought to his country was not only reflected in his sporting career but also, in 1924, he was a medalist at the Paris Olympic Games in the architecture competition. This made him one of only two Olympians ever to have won medals in both sport and art Olympic competitions. Afterwards, he was charged with drawing plans for several new sporting facilities in his country.


According to Athenian records, a U.S. athlete participating in a swimming event refused to continue the race after jumping into the water because it was too cold. The temperature in the water was thought to be around 13 degrees Celsius.


In fencing, the competitors were divided into two categories - professionals and amateurs. In the other sports, professionals were not allowed to compete so this marked the first representation of p.
