THIS QUARTER A great year for the sport in Jersey has surely been capped by the island’s first appearance in the Home Nations Championship. Not only that, but Jersey has been sounded out about holding the event the year after next, a reward perhaps for putting up a great show on the island’s debut in the competition. The 31 players taking part certainly gave a good account of themselves, ending up tied with the host nation. Top honours went to the Liberation foursome of Andrew Bellamy-Burt, Alan Oliveira, Callum Stewart and Matt Pinel who won seven of their 12 games. Close behind were the quartet of Steve Leathem, Andy Limbrick, Matt Scholefield and Alan Lahiffe who won six. Top team were England by a distance with 80 matches won, with Wales second on 48 and Derek Hart gets his hands on the Scotland and Jersey winning 32 each.

But I would like to finish with one example when it is certainly worth marking boules and cochonnet. For the pétanque player who If the cochonnet is close to the edges of the playing area and a really does have everything player is going to fire, everything vulnerable should be marked. If the shooter’s boule hits an end board or anything outside the playing area and rebounds on to the terrain it is of course dead and taken off the terrain. BUT you can only replace any boule/s or the cochonnet which it hit, if their positions were marked. Having lost a game on such an occurrence, believe me, I now mark things just in case!

    The Four Health Systems of the United Kingdom: How Do They Compare?

    The four health systems of the United Kingdom: how do they compare? Gwyn Bevan, Marina Karanikolos, Jo Exley, Ellen Nolte, Sheelah Connolly and Nicholas Mays Source report April 2014 About this research This report is the fourth in a series dating back to 1999 which looks at how the publicly financed health care systems in the four countries of the UK have fared before and after devolution. The report was commissioned jointly by The Health Foundation and the Nuffield Trust. The research team was led by Nicholas Mays at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. The research looks at how the four national health systems compare and how they have performed in terms of quality and productivity before and after devolution. The research also examines performance in North East England, which is acknowledged to be the region that is most comparable to Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland in terms of socioeconomic and other indicators. This report, along with an accompanying summary report, data appendices, digital outputs and a short report on the history of devolution (to be published later in 2014), are available to download free of charge at www.nuffieldtrust.org.uk/compare-uk-health www.health.org.uk/compareUKhealth. Acknowledgements We are grateful: to government statisticians in the four countries for guidance on sources of data, highlighting problems of comparability and for checking the data we have used; for comments on the draft report from anonymous referees and from Vernon Bogdanor, Alec Morton and Laura Schang; and for guidance on national clinical audits from Nick Black and on nursing data from Jim Buchan.

    Biodiversity Strategy for Jersey

    Bio Diversity a strategy for Jersey Forward by Senator Nigel Quérée President, Planning and Environment Committee This document succeeds in bringing together all the facets of Jersey’s uniquely diverse environmental landscape. It describes the contrasting habitats which exist in this small Island and explains what should be done to preserve them, so that we can truly hand Jersey on to future generations with minimal environmental damage. It is a document which should be read by anyone who wants to know more about the different species which exist in Jersey and what should be done to protect them. I hope that it will help to foster a much greater understanding of the delicate balance that should be struck when development in the Island is considered and for that reason this is a valuable supporting tool for the Jersey Island Plan.

It is held every year, starting in February. In 2021, the Six Nations runs from 6th February to 20th March. The match fixtures are played in all six countries. All About Rugby A rugby union team has 15 players. Matches last for 80 minutes. There are different ways of scoring worth the following points: • try – five points; • penalty – three points; • conversion – two points; • drop goal – three points. The Origins of Rugby People tell the story that rugby was started by a school boy called William Webb Ellis in 1823. William was a pupil at Rugby school. One day whilst playing a football match, he picked up the ball and ran with it to the goal post. No one is sure that this actually happened. However, people like the story so much that the trophy awarded to the winners of the Rugby World Cup is called the Webb Ellis Cup. The 2021 Six Nations The 2021 Six Nations kicks off on 6th February at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, Italy. Italy will play France. England will play Scotland later that day at Twickenham.

    No.3 Les Landes De L'est SSI.Pdf

    Les Landes de L’Est Site of Special (Ecological) Interest Introduction Les Landes de L’Est, otherwise known as Les Landes, is one of the Island’s largest Sites of Special Interest (SSI), covering 102 hectares and forming the north-west corner of the Jersey National Park. It is the largest single block of maritime heathland anywhere in the Channel Islands and offers visitors a feeling of wildness and remoteness. The site’s location provides an important ecological link between St Ouen’s Bay and the north coast, supporting a range of habitats and species, some of which are unique to the area. Large parts of the site are in public ownership, but the SSI incorporates other areas of private and common land. The site is an open plateau lying 80m above mean sea level and Spotted Cat's-ear the underlying rock is primarily granite, resulting in thin and acidic soils, which in turn heavily influences the vegetation which favours these conditions. The hardness of the bedrock has led to the creation of the dramatic, steep cliffs which we see today. The openness and feeling of wildness on offer are fantastic with wonderful views across the mauves and yellows of the gorse and heather towards the other Channel Islands to the north. Jersey’s climate is oceanic, and the north-west coast of Jersey is wide-open to the full force of Atlantic gales making Les Landes one of the most exposed areas of the Island. The wind is usually wet and salty, which has an effect particularly on the vegetation in the area.
