  • A Solution to Darwin‟S Dilemma of 1859: Exceptional Preservation in Salter‟S 2 Material from the Late Ediacaran Longmyndian Supergroup, England 3 4 Richard H.T
    1 A solution to Darwin‟s dilemma of 1859: exceptional preservation in Salter‟s 2 material from the late Ediacaran Longmyndian Supergroup, England 3 4 Richard H.T. Callow and Martin D. Brasier 5 Department of Earth Sciences, University of Oxford, Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3PR, UK. [email protected] 6 7 8 Study of historic and fresh collections from the Longmyndian Supergroup sheds new 9 light on Ediacaran microbial communities and taphonomy. First reported by Salter in 10 1856, and noted by Darwin in the ‘Origin of Species’ in 1859, a range of macroscopic 11 bedding plane markings are already well known from the Longmyndian. Here we report 12 filamentous and sphaeromorph microfossils, variously preserved as carbonaceous films, 13 by aluminosilicate permineralization and as bedding plane impressions. This supports a 14 long-suspected link between wrinkle markings and microbes and draws further 15 attention to our hypothesis for a taphonomic bias towards high-quality soft tissue 16 preservation in the Ediacaran Period. 17 18 19 The Precambrian has long been a puzzle for palaeontologists and for many years Precambrian 20 sediments were thought to be unfossiliferous. Charles Darwin saw the lack of a Precambrian fossil 21 record as a potential problem for his theory of natural selection, a problem which has become 22 known as „Darwin‟s Dilemma‟: “To the question why we do not find records of these vast 23 primordial periods, I can give no satisfactory answer.” (Darwin 1859). Despite this, Darwin 24 appeared confident that life had existed during the Precambrian and that fossils were yet to be 25 identified: “Consequently, if my theory be true, it is indisputable that before the lowest 26 [Cambrian] stratum was deposited, long periods elapsed, as long, or probably far longer than, 27 the whole interval from the [Cambrian] age to the present day; and that during these vast, yet 28 quite unknown, periods of time, the world swarmed with living creatures.” (Darwin 1859).

  • Rural Settlement List 2014
    National Non Domestic Rates RURAL SETTLEMENT LIST 2014 1 1. Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose.

    Shropshire County 2016-17 QOF Data Report by Place Plan Area The following report is based upon the Quality and Outcomes Framework data (QOF) for 2016-17 which records disease prevalence, achievements and exceptions at GP practice level and Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) level. The 23 place plan areas are based on Lower Level Super Output Areas (LLSOAs) but may have been assigned to a Place Plan Area because it had the largest population where LLSOAs cross geographical boundaries. GP Practices were assigned to place plan areas according to their post code linked to Lower LLSOAs; disease prevalence (%) was calculated on place plan populations. The following maps show the QOF prevalence of disease based as a percentage of the place plan area population 2015i with red indicating a significantly higher prevalence to the Shropshire average, green significantly lower and yellow similar to the Shropshire average.
