  • The Impact of England's Second Lockdown on UK Visa Applications
    The impact of England's second lockdown on UK visa applications 11 NOVEMBER 2020 Tracy Evlogidis PARTNER | UK CATEGORY: ARTICLE In reaction to the stark rise in coronavirus cases, England entered into a second national lockdown on 5 November 2020. In contrast with the onset of the pandemic in March of this year, UK Visas & Immigration now have the facilities in place to enable their services to continue running. We have extracted the pertinent information from Home Ofce guidance, and listed below the current status of UK visa application centres (‘VACs’) both in and outside of the UK. In summary, overseas UK VACs will remain open, however this is very much dependent on local country restrictions. In the UK, the Home Ofce is still accepting and processing in-country visa applications. UK Visa and Citizenship Application Services (‘UKVCAS’) Service Points, Service and Support Centres (‘SSCs’), and English Language Test centres are classed as providing an “essential service” and thus remain open, with exceptions. The ‘ne print’ Applications made within the UK: Individuals in the UK with leave that expires after 31 October 2020 are permitted, under current coronavirus concessions, to submit a visa application from within the UK where that visa application would normally require submission from their home country. If switching into a work or study visa category, applicants may be able to start working or studying before a decision is made on their application, if specic criteria are satised. Those applicants who made an appointment to attend a UKVCAS Service Point which remains closed will be contacted when the Service Point re- opens to make a new appointment, and their UK immigration status will not change as a result of being prevented from attending their appointment.

  • Copper Democracy: an International Labor History of the Anaconda
    Copper Democracy An International Labor History of The Anaconda Company: 1945-1960 Willem Morris Undergraduate Senior Thesis Department of History Columbia University 29 March 2021 Seminar Advisor: Jude Webre Second Reader: Adam Tooze 2 Contents Acknowledgements 3 Introduction 5 Chapter 1: Red Metal, Red Miners 11 Chapter 2: For the Permanent Defense of Democracy 29 Chapter 3: Insulation of the Market 39 Chapter 4: “The Strike That Broke the Backs of the Unions” 59 Conclusion 70 3 Acknowledgements This project was special for me because of my family’s connections to the Anaconda Company. My family’s love and support is the reason I was able to make it to the point where I could attempt to write a senior thesis and this project is for them. My father is from Butte and both his father and his grandfather worked in the copper mines for the Anaconda Company. My father and many others from Butte have a remarkable loyalty to the town and after writing this thesis, I am able to fully appreciate why Butte is a special place for so many people. My mother’s grandfather, K. Ross Toole, also has a connection to the Anaconda Company; he was Anaconda’s foremost historian and critic. Thank you to my Grammie for telling me stories about him and for encouraging me to read and write. This project feels like the culmination of a lifetime of learning and there are so many people I would like to thank. Thank you to all of my teachers, professors, coaches, and mentors. Thank you Mrs.

    IEAGHG Technical Report 2017-02 February 2017 Techno - Economic Evaluation of SMR Based Standalone (Merchant) Hydrogen Plant with CCS IEA GREENHOUSE GAS R&D PROGRAMME vsdv International Energy Agency The International Energy Agency (IEA) was established in 1974 within the framework of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) to implement an international energy programme. The IEA fosters co-operation amongst its 28 member countries and the European Commission, and with the other countries, in order to increase energy security by improved efficiency of energy use, development of alternative energy sources and research, development and demonstration on matters of energy supply and use. This is achieved through a series of collaborative activities, organised under 39 Technology Collaboration Programmes (Implementing Agreements). These agreements cover more than 200 individual items of research, development and demonstration. IEAGHG is one of these Implementing Agreements.
