  • Celtic League Halts Dangerous Weapons Tests
    Celtic News Archive 1996 - 2002 Celtic League halts dangerous weapons tests - 24-05-96 This week, the Celtic League successfully frustrated secret UK MOD attempts to start tests on countermeasures for so called "smart weapons". We argued the tests would pose a danger to ships and aircraft in the Irish sea area. The MOD initially would neither confirm nor deny our claims (then good sense appears to have prevailed). The tests at Aberporth missile range in mid Wales have now been deferred for a month. The League argued that the technology aimed at disabling Global Positioning Systems, on which the smart weapons depend, could pose a danger to others such as commercial ships, fishing craft and aircraft which use the systems. We set out below (in lay man's terms) detail to back up that argument. GPS is a vital component of modern navigation: It aids accurate navigation, geographic measurement of islands in the ocean, life saving and the control of rockets. Its pinpoint accuracy makes it a vital component of so called smart weapon technology which was demonstrated to such devastating effect during the Gulf War. GPS was originally a project of the US military which built the system of 24 satellites which span the world. Since 1990 the technology has been available for civil use and this enables a wide range of users to determine accurately the position of ships, land vehicles or aircraft. The GPS satellites rotate around the the earth in an elliptical orbit at an average height of 20,000 km. Eight satellites are "visible" at any one time in an intersecting orbital pattern.

    A New Framework: The Sociotechnical Approach to Nation Branding Ruth MacKrell A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Liverpool John Moores University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2013 Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. Michel Leseure. It has been nothing short of an honour learning with you. Not only have you made my PhD experience productive and stimulating, but have also (inadvertently) improved my French. Your constant encouragement, belief in me, and kindness will never be forgotten. For this, in addition to a multitude of other reasons, I would like to thank you for being my mentor, but moreover, for being my friend. Secondly, my deepest gratitude goes to Kate, who as a truly valued friend and confidante, has always been a great source of motivation, laughter, inspiration and support. Your confidence in me has been a tremendous source of strength- for this I will forever be grateful. I would also like to thank Dr Yvonne Moogan, Dr Gloria Miller, Chris and Joan Robertshaw for their invaluable advice, for always leaving their doors open for me and providing me with new opportunities. Finally, I would like to thank James for never failing to provide me with much needed distraction and for always making me smile. To my wonderful parents, who in addition to actively encouraging me to realise my potential throughout my life, have never faltered in their moral (and financial) support. Sapere aude! December 2012. 2 Dedication If roses grow in heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for me, Place them in my Mother's arms and tell her they're from me.

    BILL HENDERSON Manifesto 2011 For the General Election Thursday 29th September, 2011 Constituency of North Douglas Bill Henderson For the General Election – 29th of September, 2011 Constituency of North Douglas Manifesto 2011 Election message Dear Constituent, It gives me great pleasure to present my latest manifesto, having had the privilege of serving the constituency and the Island for this past legislative term. My manifesto provides a summary of the principle policies and strategies for which I shall be seeking your endorsement in the forthcoming General Election on the 29th of September, 2011. It is a document that recognises and is resolute in the face of the gravest challenges our Island has ever had to face. I believe the policies I propose demonstrate my clear vision and commonsense approach to reaching realistic solutions to the many and varied issues which affect us - in the constituency, Douglas, the Island and internationally. I have moved away from the usual simple leaflet layout and chosen a more in-depth, professional, goal-focused presentation so you can better assess my achievements, commitment and future strategy. I feel it is right that the electorate should have a more meaningful and comprehensive document. My policies cover wide-ranging issues, supported by robust, experience-led and considered actions - essential if I am to serve you as an effective member of the Isle of Man Parliament. Events off-island, in particular the global financial crisis, the ʻUK Double VAT bombshellʼ, worldwide rising fuel prices, the heightened threat of terrorism, and emerging economies such as Asia are having immediate and long-term implications for us all, while freedom of movement within the EU member states is already having an impact on the social dynamics of the Island.
