LONDON nike air max 2017 uk , Aug. 10 (Xinhua) -- British police issued new guidance Thursday to help improve security at the country's football stadia.
Representatives from the major clubs across the country attended counter-terrorism awareness workshops at Wembley in London and Manchester United's Old Trafford stadium.
Football supporters, in advice directed at them, have also been told not to wait around to film incidents on their mobile cellphones if told to evacuate in emergency situations.
The National Counter Terrorism Security Office has been working with the English Premier League, English Football League (EFL) and Football Association (FA) to help improve stadium security.
Police Superintendent Dave Roney, Deputy National Coordinator for Protect and Prepare, said: "While there is no specific intelligence of an increased threat to football grounds in the UK nike air max 2017 womens uk sale , we have seen that terrorists are prepared to carry out attacks on this type of target.
"We have been pleased with the response from the football authorities in attending our events and making renewed efforts to do all they can to keep supporters safe."
Clubs have been told to give safety advice to supporters, including urging them to minimise what they carry, such as bags, to enable searches to be speeded up and if told to evacuate leave immediately.
The advice follows the recent bomb attack on the Manchester Arena as well as terror attacks in London.
Although football stadiums in Britain have never been targeted by terrorists, stadia in Europe have been attacked.
More than 800,000 fans attend Premier League matches in England each season nike air max 2017 womens uk , with many of the big stadiums capable of holding up to 76,000 supporters.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 20 (Xinhua) -- A new study shows that"infant-directed speech," often called "parentese," the speechstyle parents use to talk to their babies, which has simplergrammar nike air max 2017 white womens uk sale , higher and exaggerated pitch, and drawn-out vowels, iseffective for infants to learn foreign language.
"Our research shows that parentese helps babies learn language,"said Naja Ferjan Ramirez, a research scientist at the University ofWashington (UW) Institute of Learning & Brain Sciences(I-LABS), about the study published this week in Mind nike air max 2017 white womens uk , Brain, andEducation, a quarterly peer-reviewed academic journal.
For years, scientists and parents have touted the benefits ofintroducing babies to two languages, as bilingual experience hasshown to improve cognitive abilities, especially problem-solving.For infants raised in households where two languages are spoken nike air max 2017 white uk ,that bilingual learning happens almost effortlessly. But how canbabies in monolingual households develop such skills?
In the new study, researchers developed a play-based, intensive,English-language method and curriculum and implementing it in fourpublic infant-education centers in Madrid, Spain.
Sixteen UW undergraduates and recent graduates served as tutors,undergoing two weeks of training at I-LABS to learn the teachingmethod and curriculum before traveling to Spain. Based on years ofI-LABS research on infant brain and language development nike air max 2017 red womens uk sale , themethod emphasizes social interaction, play, and high quality andquantity of language from the teachers.
The European country's extensive public education system enabledthe researchers to enroll 280 infants and children from families ofvarying income levels.
Babies aged 7 to 33.5 months were given one hour of Englishsessions a day for 18 weeks, while a control group received theMadrid schools' standard bilingual program. Both groups of childrenwere tested in Spanish and English at the start and end of the 18weeks. The children also wore special vests outfitted withlightweight recorders that recorded their English learning. Therecordings were analyzed to determine how many English words andphrases each child spoke.
The children who received the UW method showed rapid increasesin English comprehension and production, and significantlyoutperformed the control group peers at all ages on all tests ofEnglish.
By the end of the 18-week program, the children in the UWprogram produced an average of 74 English words or phrases perchild nike air max 2017 red womens uk , per hour; children in the control group produced 13 Englishwords or phrases per child, per hour.
The findings indicate that babies from monolingual homes candevelop bilingual abilities at this early age, Ferjan Ramirez said."With the right science-based approach that combines the featuresknown to grow children's language, it is possible to give veryyoung children the opportunity to start learning a second language,with only one hour of play per day in an early educationsetting."
Follow-up testing 18 weeks later showed the children hadretained what they learned. The gains were similar between childrenattending the two schools serving predominantly low-incomeneighborhoods and the two serving mid-income areas, suggesting thatwealth was not a significant factor in the infants' ability tolearn a foreign language.
Children's native language nike air max 2017 red uk , namely Spanish, continued to grow asthey were learning English, and was not negatively affected byintroducing a second language.
"Science indicates that babies' brains are the best learningmachines ever created, and that infants' learning istime-sensitive. Their brains will never be better at learning asecond language than they are between 0 and 3 years of age,"
