The document reviews Australian and international planning guides to identify key elements important in planning for station access. Best practice elements were identified for inclusion in an access planning methodology for the Australian context. An evaluation framework featuring a checklist of station access principles associated with each access mode is provided to assess existing station access. Case studies are presented from Brisbane, Perth, and Sydney so as to illustrate the framework. This document presents a new perspective for Australian rail agencies, including access in the overall design process and provides a best practice approach, building on available station access-related planning in Australia and developments in Europe and North America.

The impressive array of innovations and successes in this report has been driven by the communities themselves, with support from industry, with a vision of getting more from their railways and making a difference to local people. Their efforts are returning many stations to the heart of the community, creating hubs for arts, education, enterprise, volunteering, healthy living, and social interaction. In turn, this generates pride and interest in the railway from the community, enhancing stations, and providing a warm welcome for rail passengers.

Likewise, Lemmy seemed too much a part of rock’s scenery to leave us so soon. As we went to press with this issue, we also learned the sad news that Eagles co-founder Glenn Frey had passed (look out for a full tribute next month), making this winter the worst in memory for losing legends. The only very slight consolation for all this is that it prompted us to listen again to the music that made them household names. In the case of Bowie, it was a reminder of the astonishing breadth and ambition of his music-making (see cover feature, p76). Rightly regarded as classic now, Bowie’s music must have been sensational when he was starting out – and I’m sure not everyone ‘got it’ at the time. Passing years have a habit of making the new and strange in music feel comfortably familiar, and finally classic. That thought has been a reminder of the importance of seeking out uncommon sounds, and not just sticking to your comfort zone of old favourites.

CLAREMONT MCKENNA COLLEGE The Evolution of the Music Industry in the Post-Internet Era SUBMITTED TO PROFESSOR JANET SMITH AND DEAN GREGORY HESS BY ASHRAF EL GAMAL FOR SENIOR THESIS FALL 2012 DECEMBER 3, 2012 - 2 - Abstract: The rise in the prevalence of the Internet has had a wide range of implications in nearly every industry. Within the music business, the turn of the millennium came with a unique, and difficult, set of challenges. While the majority of academic literature in the area focuses specifically on the aspect of file sharing within the Internet as it negatively impacts sales within the recording sector, this study aims to assess the Internet’s wider impacts on the broader music industry. In the same time that record sales have plummeted, the live music sector has thrived, potentially presenting alternative business models and opportunities. This paper will discuss a variety of recent Internet-related developments including the rise of legal digital distribution, key economic implications, general welfare effects, changes in consumer preference and social phenomena as they relate to both the recording and live entertainment sectors.

One of our goals is to help individuals understand what to look for as a baby grows and develops. Another goal is to aid in understanding that infants’ and toddlers’ natural learning patterns and abilities can be nurtured in everyday activities occurring in a home or childcare setting. Young children’s learning comes from discoveries they make on their own under the guidance of caring adults rather than from structured lessons. Suggestions are provided for caregivers, which includes parents and early childhood professionals, for interacting with infants and toddlers, organizing the environment so it supports their learning, and responding to their individual differences.

  • Title: Kevin Kruse on Fault Lines: a History of the United States Since 1974 Episode: 43
    Title: Kevin Kruse on Fault Lines: A History of the United States Since 1974 Episode: 43 Transcript Kevin Kruse: When Roosevelt won landslide victories with the new deal, he still had a large contingent of very conservative Democratic senators in the south and some even in the West. When Reagan came into the ‘80s, there were still a good number of moderate or even liberal Republicans left throughout the country. It really has only been in recent years when we see this real ideological sorting and purging to some great degree. [Music] [From Heterodox Academy, this is Half Hour of Heterodoxy, conversations with scholars and authors, ideas from diverse viewpoints and perspectives. Here is your host Chris Martin.] Chris Martin: Kevin Kruse, historian at Princeton University is my guest today. He’s the author of White Flight: Atlanta in the Making of Modern Conservatism, published in 2005 and One Nation Under God: How Corporate America Invented Christian America, published in 2015. He and his colleague at Princeton Julian Zelizer have a new book coming out January 9th, titled Fault Lines: A History of the US Since 1974. We will be talking about that new book in today’s episode. Hi Kevin. Welcome to the show. I would like to start by asking you about the course that this book is based on. When you teach this course, what part of this segment of history do undergraduates find most intriguing? Kevin Kruse: So when I got to Princeton back in 2000, I had a course that was “US since 1920” and that was a course that I think was probably designed in like 1960.
