Blackburn Petr Pyšek Order of Authors Secondary Information: Funding Information: The Czech Academy of Sciences Prof. Petr Pyšek (RVO67985939) Hlávka foundation Dr. Pavel Pipek Rector's Mobility Fund of the Charles Dr. Pavel Pipek University Abstract: New Zealand is home to around 40 alien bird species, but about 80 more were introduced in the 19th century and failed to establish. As most of these introductions were deliberate and documented in detail by the Acclimatisation Societies responsible for them, New Zealand bird invasions are often used as a model system to unravel what determines the outcome of introduction events, especially the role of propagule pressure. However, the credibility of these data was challenged recently, as different authors have reported different numbers of liberated birds. This discrepancy has several causes. Using introductions of Eurasian skylark (Alauda arvensis) and Common starling (Sturnus vulgaris) as examples, we show that the most important issue is that not all liberated birds were imported from overseas, and so import records underestimate the total propagule pressure for particular regions.

  • Letters to the Editor Guidelines
    Letters to the editor Guidelines Do you feel strongly about a child poverty issue? Write a letter to the editor using our simple letter writing techniques, list of email addresses and examples of sample letters (family income assistance, housing, health, education, gambling etc): • All newspapers require your name, personal address and daytime telephone number. • Do not send your letter as an attachment. Use cut and paste. • Check the word length accepted by the newspaper (usually around 150 words). Longer letters may be published but could be edited in a way you do not agree with. • The brevity of letters means you can only make one or two points. Make sure your arguments are set out in a logical way. • Get someone unfamiliar with the issue to read the letter – does it make sense to that person? • Stick to the issues and avoid personal attacks (even if you are responding to a personal attack). • Try to respond to an issue as soon as possible. • Proofread your letter carefully and check your word length. • Letters can be emailed –put letter to the editor in the subject line. • If you have any questions or want a letter to the editor checked, email [email protected] Email addresses of main daily papers Letter to editor in subject line/cut and paste text Ashburton Guardian [email protected] Bay of Plenty Times [email protected] Dominion Post [email protected] Daily News [email protected] Daily Post [email protected] Gisborne Herald [email protected] Greymouth Evening Star [email protected] Hawkes Bay Today

  • 5. Climatic Hazards
    5. CLIMATIC HAZARDS Reference: West Coast Regional Council: Natural Hazards Review 2002, DTec Consulting Christchurch (the DTec Report) Climatic Hazards are caused by one or a combination of: A. heavy rainfall B. hail C. thunder & lightning D. strong winds – tornadoes E. snow & ice F. droughts G. wildfires Past examples of these are: a. Heaviest rain recorded on WC found at WCRC rain gauge upper Cropp River. Less heavy rain recorded at Niwa rain gauge at Taipo River by highway b. Hail effects on White Heron colony near Whataroa, Press 2001 c. Thunder & Lightning constant January 1995 in Greymouth area: Snowflake Factory struck/burnt down d. Strong winds: Katabatic winds Waiho – Whataroa areas, Nov.1975. Tornadoes: Small ones occur regularly along coast in vicinity of Hokitika and Greymouth. e. Snow & Ice: are a problem in winter at times in Rahu, Lewis, Otira Pass Areas. Problem is usually for road / communication links to West Coast f. Drought: Degree of this on WC can be ascertained by scanning rainfall records any year. Example seen in effect on Greymouth water supply over summers of 1998 to 2001 g. Wildfires: Limited sporadic newspaper data but more in records at Greymouth Fire Station: (Note also fires due to spontaneous combustion, e.g. of coal) NB There is less organized data on Climatic Hazards overall but plenty anecdotally, particularly in Newspaper records. Studies of these hazards lend themselves well to research. The excerpts on following pages are from DTec Report pp 110 - 119 CLIMATIC HAZARDS Introduction The previous chapters have dealt with the more obvious natural hazards in the region.

  • Chch Star Poets Index and Notes
    Supplement to broadsheet: new new zealand poetry no. 12 Index to the Star Poets of Christchurch 1922-26 and Field Notes by Mark Pirie (Includes notes on poets: Bessie L Heighton, Una Auld/Una Currie, Ida M Lough/Ida M Withers, R D Brown, T E L Roberts, H H Heatley, H S Gipps, A Stanley Sherratt, Beryl Windsor, Grace Ross, E A Irwin, W J McKellow, Dorothy Reed, E F Owen, Aline Dunn, Sadie Uanson, G R Butler, Honor Gordon Coster/Honor Gordon Holmes, Pearl Noonan and H Tillman) Published by The Night Press, Wellington ISSN 1178-7805 (Print) ISSN 1178-7813 (Online) Publisher’s Note This supplement to the special issue of broadsheet, no. 12, includes the full index to the Star Poets of Christchurch 1922-26 and the stats relating to their contributions to The Star. It should be noted that I may have missed a few poems here and there as I’ve only checked Saturday publications of The Star for these years, and I can’t be certain that there weren’t occasional midweek publications of poems. Some issues like the supplement to Saturday 2 August 1924 were missing (in micro film runs) and it’s likely Sherratt’s 25th Polynesian legend (of the 30) appeared that weekend. I’ve only included local NZ poets in the Index from the Saturday poetry page 'Among the Poets'. Overseas poets appeared as well, reproduced from overseas magazines and collections. These overseas poets are not in the Index. There were also two regular (unsigned) doggerel columns: 'Spindrifts' and 'Things Thoughtful' and I've not indexed these columns.

  • Public Version Fairfax / Nzme Response to Submissions 29
    PUBLIC VERSION FAIRFAX / NZME RESPONSE TO SUBMISSIONS 29 JULY 2016 INTRODUCTION 1. NZME Limited 1 (" NZME ") and Fairfax NZ Limited (" Fairfax ") have had the opportunity to review the public submissions to the Commerce Commission (" Commission ") in response to the Commission's Statement of Preliminary Issues dated 14 June 2016 (" SOPI ") in relation to the Fairfax / NZME application (the " Application ") seeking approval to merge the New Zealand operations of NZME and Fairfax (the "Transaction "). 2. Fairfax and NZME's responses and observations in relation to the submissions and the key points contained in them are set out below. Appendix Two also contains an overview of the recent Reuters Institute Digital News Report 2016 and The Pew Research Center State of the News Media 2016 report that reinforce the acceleration of the trends identified in the Application. SUMMARY 3. The Commission received 49 submissions in total. Once duplicated submissions from a single person / economic entity are removed, there are fewer than 40.2 This is a low number of submissions on a high-profile transaction involving media. 3 4. All the submissions were from competitors, journalists, or academics / public policy lobby groups. That is unusual when measured, for example, against the range of submissions received by the Commission on its last high profile authorisation. 4 It is however not surprising. In traditional competition analysis, if competitors are opposing, it is often an indicator that the merger will be pro-competitive,5 as the merged entity is potentially expected to provide a better offering to customers (in this case, consumers and advertisers). 5.

  • James Macandrew of Otago Slippery Jim Or a Leader Staunch and True?
    JAMES MACANDREW OF OTAGO SLIPPERY JIM OR A LEADER STAUNCH AND TRUE? BY RODERICK JOHN BUNCE A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2013 iii ABSTRACT James Macandrew, a Scotsman who migrated to Dunedin in 1851, was variously a businessman, twice Superintendent of Otago Province, an imprisoned bankrupt and a Minister of the Crown. He was an active participant in provincial and colonial politics for 36 years and was associated with most of the major political events in New Zealand during that time. Macandrew was a passionate and persuasive advocate for the speedy development of New Zealand’s infrastructure to stimulate the expansion of settlement. He initiated a steamer service between New Zealand and Australia in 1858 but was bankrupt by 1860. While Superintendent of Otago in 1860 and 1867–76 he was able to advance major harbour, transport and educational projects. As Minister of Public Works in George Grey’s Ministry from 1878–79 he promoted an extensive expansion of the country’s railway system. In Parliament, he was a staunch advocate of easier access to land for all settlers, and a promoter of liberal social legislation which was enacted a decade later by the Seddon Government. His life was interwoven with three influential settlers, Edward Gibbon Wakefield, Julius Vogel and George Grey, who variously dominated the political landscape. Macandrew has been portrayed as an opportunist who exploited these relationships, but this study will demonstrate that while he often served these men as a subordinate, as a mentor he influenced their political beliefs and behaviour.
