    NJR Centre Peoplebuilding 2 FAO: Orthopaedic consultant surgeon Peoplebuilding Estate Maylands Avenue Hemel Hempstead HP2 4NW NJR Service Desk: 0845 345 9991 21 July 2015 Fax: 0845 345 9992 Email: [email protected] Ref: COP2015/InScope Dear Colleague Consultant outcomes publication 2015 The NJR is preparing for the 2015 round of orthopaedic consultant outcomes publication (COP), which continues as part of NHS England’s overall transparency agenda. We are writing to share with you important information relating to this year’s iteration. If you are a new Consultant, and receiving this letter for the first time, we would encourage you to read the background to the NHS England initiative at www.njrcentre.org.uk and see the current published profiles on www.njrsurgeonhospitalprofile.org.uk. Any Consultant surgeon who has carried out at least one NHS-funded procedure in England (1 April 2014-31 March 2015) is automatically included for publication. Revision rates The registry would like to take this opportunity to assure colleagues that revision rates at surgeon- level will not be published. As you will be aware, the NJR has been working alongside the British Orthopaedic Association and specialist orthopaedic societies as the COP programme moves forward to ensure appropriate development and robustness of the surgeon and hospital profiles. The view of the NJR Data Quality Sub-committee and the NJR Steering Committee is that the quality of data submitted to the registry is not currently able to support the publication of individual surgeon revision rates into the public domain. The NJR has recently reviewed and refreshed its strategy for data quality in the registry, including the launch of a data completeness and quality audit programme at procedure level.

  • The Isle of Wight in the English Landscape
    THE ISLE OF WIGHT IN THE ENGLISH LANDSCAPE: MEDIEVAL AND POST-MEDIEVAL RURAL SETTLEMENT AND LAND USE ON THE ISLE OF WIGHT HELEN VICTORIA BASFORD A study in two volumes Volume 1: Text and References Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Bournemouth University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2013 2 Copyright Statement This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with its author and due acknowledgement must always be made of the use of any material contained in, or derived from, this thesis. 3 4 Helen Victoria Basford The Isle of Wight in the English Landscape: Medieval and Post-Medieval Rural Settlement and Land Use Abstract The thesis is a local-scale study which aims to place the Isle of Wight in the English landscape. It examines the much discussed but problematic concept of ‘islandness’, identifying distinctive insular characteristics and determining their significance but also investigating internal landscape diversity. This is the first detailed academic study of Isle of Wight land use and settlement from the early medieval period to the nineteenth century and is fully referenced to national frameworks. The thesis utilises documentary, cartographic and archaeological evidence. It employs the techniques of historic landscape characterisation (HLC), using synoptic maps created by the author and others as tools of graphic analysis. An analysis of the Isle of Wight’s physical character and cultural roots is followed by an investigation of problems and questions associated with models of settlement and land use at various scales.

  • Establishing Tate Modern: Vision and Patronage
    Establishing Tate Modern: Vision and Patronage The London School of Economics and Political Science Establishing Tate Modern: Vision and Patronage Caroline Donnellan A thesis submitted to the Department of Sociology at the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, July 2013 1 Establishing Tate Modern: Vision and Patronage Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the Ph.D. degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work, other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others, in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it. The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without the prior written consent of the author. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. 2 Establishing Tate Modern: Vision and Patronage Abstract Tate Modern has attracted significant academic interest aimed at analysing its cultural and urban regeneration impact. Yet there exists no research which provides an in-depth and contextual framework examining how Tate Modern was established, nor is there a study which assesses critically the development of Tate’s collection of international modern and contemporary art. Why is this important? It is relevant because a historic conflict of interests developed within the Tate’s founding organisation which was reluctant to host it.

    Cover: The Tate Britain Commission 2016, supported by Sotheby’s, was by Pablo Bronstein. For Historical Dances in an Antique Setting he took inspiration from the neo classical surroundings of the Duveens and Baroque dance to create a continuous live performance. As part of the backdrop, Bronstein recreated the postmodern façade of the Duveen Galleries TATE REPORT 2015/16 TATE’S VISION Tate is a champion of art and its value to society. It believes that an understanding of the visual can enrich all our lives and that artists make a special contribution to the community. Tate therefore has the ambition to make us all aware of the significance of the visual in contemporary life and how artists help us to see and interpret the world.

    Oral History Lieutenant Leonard Wilson Tate Oral History Conducted with Marjorie and Vicki Tate 1984 -- 1987 11 Naval Historical Foundation Oral History Program 2001 . a •1 I Lt. Leonard Wilson Tate World War II Career with the Scouts And Raiders and SACO FOREWORD In the winter and early spring of 1984, my husband recorded accounts of his experiences as a “ Scout “ during the naval invasion of southern France in 1 944. and as an intelligence agent with the Sino American Co-operative Organization of the U.S. Naval Group,China; the so-called “Rice Paddy Navy” in 1945. He did this at the urging of his elder daughter, Vicki(Tate)Knauss. Vicki later transcribed most of the first tape. After his death in 1987, 1 started very slowly to write up a family history. In order to complete his section of this, in 1999 I transcribed the rest of the tapes. I added the above title here to facilitate filing and to clarify the subject matter. The material being donated consists of Chapters 2 through 8 of the biography of my husband. I had thought to request a copyright, but rereading the donation form convinced me That this would seriously limit the use of Leonard’s story. My request to readers is to please give credits to him and use the facts accurately. Marjorie I-I. Tate ( Mrs. Leonard W.) January 25, 2001 Winchester, Virginia INTRODUCTION MY HUSBAND I-{ow can I adequately express my feelings about a man who fell head over heels in love the first time we met?
