The first Biathlon World Championships was held in 1958, with individual and team contests for men. The number of events has grown over the years. Beginning in 1984, women biathletes had their own World Championships, from 1989, both genders have been participating in joint Biathlon World Championships. In 1978 the development was enhanced by the change from the large army rifle calibre to a small bore rifle, while the range to the target was reduced from 150 to 50 meters; the Biathlon World Championships of the season takes place during March. Some years it has been necessary to schedule parts of the Championships at other than the main venue because of weather and/or snow conditions. Full, joint Biathlon World Championships have never been held in Olympic Winter Games seasons. Biathlon World Championships in non-IOC events, have been held in Olympic seasons.

Timarida was an Irish Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare bred and owned by the Aga Khan, who competed in six different countries and won major races in five of them. In a racing career which lasted from March 1995 until December 1996 she ran sixteen times, recording ten wins, two seconds and two third places; as a three-year-old in 1995 she began her season in minor Irish races and made steady improvement, winning seven races including the Brownstown Stakes, Matron Stakes, Prix de l'Opera and E P Taylor Stakes. In the following season she added wins in the Bayerisches Zuchtrennen, Beverly D. Stakes and Irish Champion Stakes. After her retirement from racing Timarida had some success as a dam of winners for her owner's stud, with her last foal being born in 2006. Timarida was a grey mare bred in Ireland by her owner Aga Khan IV. During her racing career she was trained at Kilcullen in County Kildare by John Oxx. Timarida's sire Kalaglow, from whom she inherited her grey colour, was a top-class middle-distance horse who won the Eclipse Stakes and King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes in 1982.

The best of his other offspring included the Melbourne Cup winner Jeune and the Grosser Preis von Berlin winner Sternkoenig. Her dam Triumphant showed modest racing ability, winning one minor race at Chester Racecourse from eight starts as a three-year-old in 1980, she was, however, a half-sister to Relkino, and, as descendant of the broodmare Ballisland, was related to Tarascon and Al Hareb. Timarida did not race as a two year-old and made her racecourse debut in a minor race over seven furlongs on heavy ground at Leopardstown Racecourse on 17 March. Ridden by Christy Roche he started the 7/4 favourite and won by two lengths from her stablemate Sharatan, she was off the racecourse for two and a half months before returning to the track to win a handicap race at the Curragh, beating seventeen opponents under top weight of 128 pounds. She followed up by winning a similar event at Galway Races on 1 August and was stepped up in class to contest the Listed Brownstown Stud Stakes over one mile at Leopardstown six days later.

Ridden by Johnny Murtagh she started the 7/4 favourite and won by four lengths from the Aidan O'Brien-trained Anemone Garden. Less than two weeks the filly was back in action and stepped up again in class for the Group 3 Desmond Stakes at the Curragh in which she was matched against male opposition and older fillies and mares. Ridden by Roche she came from off the pace to challenge for the lead in the last quarter mile but hung to the right in the closing stages and was beaten a head by the five-year-old mare Ivory Frontier. After an enquiry by the racecourse stewards Ivory Frontier and Timarida were relegated to second and third for causing interference to the third placed finisher Mr Martini. On 10 September Timarida returned to all-female competition for the Matron Stakes at the Curragh and started 7/2 second favourite behind the British challenger Warning Shadows who had finished second to Ridgewood Pearl in the Irish 1000 Guineas. Ridden by Murtagh, Timarida turned into the straight in fifth place before moving up to dispute the lead in the final quarter mile.

She stayed on in the closing stages and won by a neck and half a length from Lap of Luury and Warning Shadows. Three weeks the filly was stepped up to Group 2 class when she was sent to France for the Prix de l'Opera over 1800 metres at Longchamp Racecourse, she was coupled in the betting with the Aga Khan's French-trained filly Balanka and started 2.5/1 favourite ahead of nine other fillies and mares including Vadlamixa, Garden Rose, Angel In My Heart and Erin Bird. Timarida raced towards the rear of the field before being switched to the outside by Murtagh in the traight, she took the lead 200 metres from the finish and drew away in the closing stages to win by two and a half lengths from Angel In My Heart. Frankie Dettori took the ride when Timarida was sent to Canada to contest the Grade II E P Taylor Stakes over ten furlongs at Woodbine Racetrack on 15 October, she was made the 5.5/1 second favourite behind the French challenger Matiara in a thirteen-runner field which included Northern Emerald and Warning Shadows.

After settling in sixth place Timarida moved forward approaching the final turn, took the lead in the straight and won by three and a half lengths from Matiara. As a four-year-old Timarida was ridden in all of her races by Murtagh. After winning seven of her eight races in 1995, the filly began her third campaign with three consecutive defeats, she finished second to the colt Definite Article in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh in May and made her only appearance in England when she ran poorly and finished unplaced in the Queen Anne Stakes over one mile at Royal Ascot in June. At the end of the month she started favourite for the International Stakes but despite finishing she failed to overhaul the British-trained three-year-old colt Gothenberg, she was sent to Germany to contest the Group 1 Bayerisches Zuchtrennen at Munich on 4 August. Her opponents included Germany, La Blue and Needle Gun. In a finish dominated by females Timarida took the lead 200 metres from the finish and won by half a length and a neck from Germany and La Blue.

Less than three weeks after her victory in Germany, Timarida made her first appearance in the United States when she ran in the Grade I Beverly D Stakes over nine and a half furlongs on firm turf at Arlington Park in Chicago. She was made the 1.6/1 joint favourite alo

Robert Ingersoll Aitken was an American sculptor. His most famous work is the West Pediment of the United States Supreme Court building. Born in San Francisco, Aitken studied there at the Mark Hopkins Institute of Art with Douglas Tilden. From 1901 until 1904 he was an instructor at the Institute. In 1904 he moved to Paris, he returned to New York City after his sojourn in Paris and was employed as an instructor at the Art Students League.

Aitken produced the "Fountain of Earth" for San Francisco's Panama Pacific Exposition, his most famous work is the West Pediment of the United States Supreme Court building, which bears the inscription "Equal Justice Under Law".

The sculpture, above the entrance to the Supreme Court Building, is of nine figures—Lady Liberty surrounded by figures representing Order, Authority and Research. These allegorical figures were in fact sculptures of real people who had a role in the creation of the building. Aitken himself is depicted in the pediment, seated to the proper left of Liberty with Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes. Many of his works were carved by the Piccirilli Brothers, including the pieces for the National Archives Building. Aitken created a stir when he criticized the placement of the Venus de Milo. Aitken enjoyed success as a designer of coins and medals, he sculpted the $50 gold commemorative for the Panama-Pacific Exposition of 1915, as well as the official medal of the event. He created the Missouri Centennial half dollar of 1921, following it a decade and a half with the California Pacific International Exposition half dollar of 1935–1936. In the medallic arena, Aitken sculpted the American Numismatic Society's 1921 medal commemorating Marshal Foch's visit to the United States.
