Volans National Poisons Information Service, The Poisons Unit, Guy's Hospira!, London SEl 9RT 1 Jn the UK there was an increase in the annual number of deaths associated with paraquat poisoning between 1966 and 1975. Since that time there has been little change in numbers. 2 High mortality is associated commonly with suicidal intent. Serious accidental poisoning from paraquat has never been frequent in the UK and there have been no deaths reported in children since 1977. 3 The National Poisons Information Service has monitored in detail all reports of paraquat poisoning since 1980. Of the 1074 cases recorded there were 209 deaths. In recent years serious poisoning has been more commonly associated with ingestion of concentrated products by males. Local exposure to paraquat has not resulted in systemic poisoning. 4 International data for paraquat poisoning is incomplete and difficult to compare. There is a scarcity of morbidity data at both international and national levels. Information obtained from Poison Control Centres indicates that paraquat poisoning occurs in many countries but detailed comparisons are hindered by lack of standardised methods of recording. 5 Various measures to prevent paraquat poisoning have been introduced. Their effectiveness has not been studied in detail. Some support is provided by the low incidence of serious accidental paraquat poisoning in the UK, but because of the suicidal nature of paraquat poisoning it is unlikely that current preventative measures will influence the number of deaths occurring each year.

  • Scottish Stop and Search Powers Genevieve Lennon*
    Searching for change: Scottish stop and search powers Genevieve Lennon* A. INTRODUCTION B. SCOTTISH STOP AND SEARCH POWERS (1) Suspicion-based statutory powers (2) Suspicionless statutory powers (3) Non-statutory powers C. COMPATIBILITY WITH THE ECHR (1) Suspicionless statutory powers (2) Suspicion-based statutory powers (3) Non-statutory powers D. CONCLUSION A. INTRODUCTION In numerous countries, stop and search powers are an open sore upon police-community relations, one which is increasingly being challenged through the courts. In the USA, the discriminatory practices associated with stop and search powers led to the coining of terms such as “driving while black” (more recently joined by “flying while brown”). In 2013, the District Court for the Southern District of New York held, inter alia, that the City of New York was liable for their indifference towards the New York City Police Department’s widespread practice of stop and frisk which violated the fourth and fourteenth amendments of the Constitution.1 In England stop and search practices were a commonly cited factor in the * Chancellor’s Fellow, University of Strathclyde.

  • THE USE of DAIRY MANURE COMPOST for SUSTAINABLE MAIZE (Zea Mays L.) PRODUCTION
    THE USE OF DAIRY MANURE COMPOST FOR SUSTAINABLE MAIZE (Zea mays L.) PRODUCTION Vânia Cabüs de Toledo Thesis submitted to the University of London in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Wye College University of London September 1996 7 BIBL\ t Lc4oI() Abstract Intensive production systems for maize (Zea mays L.) based on the use of inorganic fertilisers are expensive and unsustainable, as their production is dependent on fossil fuels. Additionally, inorganic fertilisers are unable to maintain soil fertility over the long-term, and are related to environmental problems such as soil erosion and nitrate pollution of the ground water table. Moreover, high cost agrochemicals are either unavailable or too costly for small farmers in tropical countries, where maize is usually grown as a subsistence crop. This research project examined the use of compost derived from dairy manure and cereal straw, renewable resources available on the farm, as an organic fertiliser for a sustainable maize production system. The effects of this compost on soil and plant nutrient content, and on maize and weed growth were studied, examining the various soil-plant interactions. The relevant literature was reviewed, comparing different production systems, and examining aspects of maize production, nutrient recycling and the effects and interactions of compost in the soil-plant system. Field and glasshouse experiments were carried out from 1993 to 1995 on Wye College Estate, UK, comparing the use of dairy manure compost and inorganic fertiliser in forage maize production. Soil chemical (nutrient content) and biological (microbial biomass and activity) aspects were analysed at several stages of maize development.

  • Valuing Archaeology; Exploring the Reality of the Heritage Management of England’S Wetlands
    Valuing archaeology; exploring the reality of the heritage management of England’s wetlands Submitted by William Fletcher, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Archaeology on 31st March 2011 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (Signature) ………………………… 1 For Kate and Amy 2 Abstract This work primarily examines the management of wet-preserved archaeological sites in England, through an exploration of value and analysis of current management approaches. The aim is to explore whether the current policy frameworks, in particular the role of preservation in situ, can provide a sustainable future for wet-preserved archaeological sites. This work further seeks to conceptualise the modelling of sustainability, preservation and management decision making in wetland archaeological sites. Looking at the last 40 year of wetland research through the work of the large-scale wetland survey projects, this work initially considers the current understanding of wet archaeological sites in England. It also examines aspects of heritage management through the legislative and policy frameworks and their legacy. This work considers the implications that legislative and policy positions have for the management of wetland archaeological sites and examines the theoretical concepts that underpin them. This includes exploring reflective management, the development of research frameworks, and scoring mechanisms for the designation of sites.

  • Title: the Boxer's Point of View: an Ethnography of Cultural Production
    Title: The boxer’s point of view: an ethnography of cultural production and athletic development among amateur and professional boxers in England Name: Alex Stewart This is a digitised version of a dissertation submitted to the University of Bedfordshire. It is available to view only. This item is subject to copyright. The boxer’s point of view: An ethnography of cultural production and athletic development among amateur and professional boxers in England ALEX STEWART A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Luton August 2008 For Mum with all my Love Elizabeth Psaltis (1943-2003) i Abstract Since the late nineteenth century boxing in England has been socially organised into two ideologically distinctive versions - amateur and professional boxing – that to this day are practiced in spatially segregated social universes. Nonetheless, both amateur and professional boxing-practitioners understandings and lived experiences in and through boxing are necessarily grounded in the wider social and cultural contexts through which they interpret meaning and construct worldviews and identity. Thus despite the institutional, ideological and spatial boundaries demarcating either code, on a rather more subtle yet incredibly powerful cultural level, amateur and professional boxing are both symbolically and practically deeply intertwined. Over a five year period, I conducted ‘insider’ ethnographic research among distinct cohorts of amateur and professional boxers based in Luton and London to investigate the lived experiences and socially constructed worldviews, values and identities developed by practitioners immersed in either code. The overriding aim of this research was to critically evaluate the limits and possibilities of boxing-practitioners association with and development through ‘boxing’ henceforth.
