    Office of Professor David Flint Chairman 27 October 2000 Hon. Paul Neville MP Chairman Standing Committee on Communications, Transport and the Arts RG.95 Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 [Dear Mr Neville] ABA Submission to the House Committee on Communications Government’s announcement of the inquiry into the radio industry, particularly the adequacy of radio services in regional and rural Australia, is very timely. The Australian Broadcasting Authority (ABA) has implemented many of the provisions of the Broadcasting Services Act 1992, including those relating to the planning and allocation of new services. Eight years later, it is opportune to consider the extent to which the deregulation of radio broadcasting has delivered improved services, and whether legislative provisions have adequately addressed community needs. The ABA welcomes the opportunity to provide the attached submission to the House Committee. The submission provides an overview of the effectiveness of the legislative provisions, in particular, those that are relevant to the Inquiry’s terms of reference. We would be happy to provide additional information on any particular aspect of the ABA’s submission should the House Committee so require. I note the House Committee may conduct public hearings in relation to matters covered by this inquiry, and I would be happy to attend if invited to do so. Please do let me know if we could be of further assistance in the meantime. Yours sincerely [David Flint] Submission by the Australian Broadcasting Authority to the House Committee on Communications Inquiry into the Radio Industry The changing regulatory environment Twenty years ago, a ‘typical’ regional Australian radio market contained, in addition to one or more ABC services, a single commercial radio station operating on the AM band.

Many of Australia’s greatest radio serials were produced during the 1940s. Among those listed in this guide are the Sunday night one-hour plays - The Lux Radio Theatre and The Macquarie Radio Theatre (becoming the Caltex Theatre after 1947); the many Jack Davey Shows, and The Bob Dyer Show; the Colgate Palmolive variety extravaganzas, headed by Calling the Stars, The Youth Show and McCackie Mansion, which starred the outrageously funny Mo (Roy Rene). Fine drama programs produced in Sydney in the 1940s included The Library of the Air and Max Afford's serial Hagen's Circus. Among the comedy programs listed from this decade are the George Wallace Shows, and Mrs 'Obbs with its hilariously garbled language.

  • Investigating Radical Contradictions of Original Lovemaps: Therapeutic Implications
    INVESTIGATING RADICAL CONTRADICTIONS OF ORIGINAL LOVEMAPS: THERAPEUTIC IMPLICATIONS by TRACY MELANIE LAKE submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF LITERATURE AND PHILOSOPHY in the subject PSYCHOLOGY at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA PROMOTER: DR I FERNS AUGUST 2006 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I extend my deepest thanks and appreciation to the following people, each one instrumental, in his or her own way, for making this project richer. Dr Ilse Ferns, again, my promoter and guide. For your valuable recognition and encouragement, and your special belief in that which I envisioned. My friend, fellow psychotherapist, and researcher, Leanne. For ideas shared, hatched, and reared in a spirit of honesty and ongoing self-inquiry. Let this always be so. To my ‘critical crew’, Johan Roelofse, Michelle Grönum, Jutta Eggers and Casper Human. Critics on request, colleagues at one time, peers always. To Terence Denton. For having spontaneously refined your own understanding of these ideas, long before I would find them, and for being so willing to share. The seven people who shared with me their memories, experiences, and reflections of loves lived, lost, and longed for. Your stories, meanings, and answers have been added to mine. Years of psychotherapy practice at university, state, and military hospitals developed the author’s interest in the presentation of love relationship problems. Mood and anxiety disorders, as the most prevalent pathologies, were often co-morbid with or secondary to partner relationship issues. Most vexing for clients was a situation of repeated dysfunctional partner selections in which similar problems arose each time. This incubated the idea of a process, probably outside of awareness, that functioned to perpetuate self-defeating partner selection patterns.

This study addresses this literature gap by analyzing depictions of religion in holiday specials aired in 2018 from three top preschool networks: Disney Junior, Nick Jr., and PBS Kids. Using qualitative content analysis, this study reveals that preschool holiday specials are shifting away from more in-depth portrayals of diverse religions toward commercialized, generalized, and secularized portrayals of Christmas. Although Chanukah and other non-Christmas religious holiday specials are, on average, older and less common than Christmas specials, they portray non-Christmas traditions in greater religious depth than the more recent and numerous Christmas specials portray Christmas.

  • Because the Trent Book Shop Is in Nottingham Hannah Neate
    Because The Trent Book Shop is in Nottingham Hannah Neate In 1972 Stuart Mills, co-founder of the Tarasque Press, made the following comment in the catalogue for the exhibition ‘Metaphor and Motif’ held at Nottingham’s Midland Group Gallery: This exhibition, in its own way, sets the balance straight. If it is seen, if the catalogue is read widely enough then it should be clear that something surprisingly consistent has been going on in Nottingham for the past few years. This chapter is an attempt to explain some of the activities to which Mills was alluding. It is a story of an overlooked literary and artistic life in Nottingham from 1964 to 1972 which centred on the Trent Book Shop. This was a brief but significant period when avant-garde bookselling and the British Poetry Revival came to the East Midlands. The Trent Book Shop In his memoir of life in Nottingham in the sixties Ray Gosling describes how: There were books and magazines that you could only buy in special places, lots of little magazines from Greenwich Village, New York City, and all over the English-speaking world. Stuart and Martin who drank in Yate’s Wine Lodge and listened to the trio with us were teachers. They went part-time and opened an avant-garde bookshop, the first of its kind in our town to sell these free-thinking books.1 The shop to which Gosling refers to is the Trent Book Shop, opened in 1964 by Stuart Mills and Martin Parnell on Pavilion Road, in the West Bridgford area of Nottingham.
