  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

  • Images, Uncertainties, and Success Stories: the Politics of Conservation in Laikipia North, Kenya. Graham Robert Lewis Fox Depa
    Images, uncertainties, and success stories: the politics of conservation in Laikipia North, Kenya. Graham Robert Lewis Fox Department of Anthropology McGill University, Montreal, Canada. December 2018 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology. © Graham R. L. Fox, 2018 Abstract Laikipia County, Kenya, one of East Africa’s most exclusive safari tourism destinations, exemplifies both the benefits and challenges that come with pursuing conservation outside government-administered protected areas. In Laikipia, where more than forty percent of land is owned by expatriates, white ranchers, and conservation organizations, Maasai communities on the county’s peripheries struggle with declining natural resources, insecurity, poor infrastructure, and weak access to public services. While minority landowners face growing criticism for land inequality in this region, Laikipia remains an icon of the promise or potential of community- based conservation in African drylands. Conservation organizations often cite Laikipia as proof that conservation beyond parks can work if local communities are meaningfully engaged in everyday efforts to protect land and wildlife. Tourism has contributed substantially to Laikipia’s image as a conservation success story, as land relations in the county enable landowners or tour operators to show guests pristine and seemingly unpeopled landscapes. While recognizing that conservation and tourism provide employment and other benefits to some Laikipia Maasai, this dissertation explains the disillusioning affects these industries also have on the Maasai population. This study situates conservation and tourism in what Anna Tsing calls the “global economy of appearances,” where success is often predicated on looking successful in the eyes of investors, clients, and global partners.

Richie Renaud and Ian Craig both completed their innings. 2 President’s Report A season of outstanding cricket with some very close matches, including one with an extraordinary conclusion. The last match was a first for pharmacy cricket and was played at the great ground Bradman Oval Bowral. The National Cricket Carnival, the eighth we have played, involved six teams ranging from Queensland to Western Australia, was played in the beautiful city of Adelaide. Pharmacy Cricket last played the Carnival in Adelaide in 2009. To bring pharmacists and students together at events such as the Carnival from across Australia is both rewarding and outstanding in what is achieved. This season we again awarded the two Pharmacy Cricket scholarships at $2500 each. The recipients are shown below and again we were impressed with the standard of the applications, especially to the question regarding the future of the profession and how the applicants might contribute. All involved with cricket have been saddened by the untimely death of Phillip Hughes and the passing of Richie Benaud and of our fellow pharmacist and joint patron Ian Craig. So much of what we achieve depends of the enthusiasm of our members and substantially on the support of our sponsors.

  • Issue 40: Summer 2009/10
    Journal of the Melbourne Cricket Club Library Issue 40, Summer 2009 This Issue From our Summer 2009/10 edition Ken Williams looks at the fi rst Pakistan tour of Australia, 45 years ago. We also pay tribute to Richie Benaud's role in cricket, as he undertakes his last Test series of ball-by-ball commentary and wish him luck in his future endeavours in the cricket media. Ross Perry presents an analysis of Australia's fi rst 16-Test winning streak from October 1999 to March 2001. A future issue of The Yorker will cover their second run of 16 Test victories. We note that part two of Trevor Ruddell's article detailing the development of the rules of Australian football has been delayed until our next issue, which is due around Easter 2010.
