  • 1 Repression, Rivalry and Racketeering in the Creation Of
    Repression, Rivalry and Racketeering in the Creation of Franco’s Spain: the curious case of Emilio Griffiths ‘These things happened. That’s the thing to keep one’s eye on. They happened even though Lord Halifax said they happened […] and they did not happen any less because the Daily Telegraph has suddenly found out about them when it is five years too late’.1 (George Orwell) In mid-November 1936, a Gibraltarian named Abraham Bensusan wrote two letters to the British Secretary of State for the Colonies in London. His subject was the Spanish Civil War, which had, by then, already been raging for three months. Bensusan described how deeply the war in Spain had affected ‘The Rock’. In both letters he hinted darkly at the ‘fascist’ elements in Gibraltar and potentially suspect loyalties amongst the civilian population.2 But his principal aim was to highlight the appalling atrocities being committed by the military rebels in the surrounding region of Spain, the Campo de Gibraltar. Bensusan alleged that civilians, including Gibraltarians, were under threat of arrest or execution in the Campo, often for the most trivial offences, such as carrying a pair of shoes in a ‘communist’ newspaper. In the first letter, having urged that ‘England should formulate a formal protest to the authorities of La Linea… and specially protect Gibraltarians’, Bensusan singled out one man as responsible for the repression in the neighbouring Spanish towns: ‘I am told that a man called Griffith born in Gibraltar is Chief of Falange Española (Fascists) at La Linea, this young man apparently seems to be the murderer over at La Linea […]’ Bensusan returned to his theme in a second letter, four days later.

Rosin∗ Jovanka Pantovi´c† Joviˇsa Zuni´cˇ ‡ Abstract In this paper we define a new linearity measure for open curve segments in 2D and 3D. The measure considers the distance of the curve end points to the curve centroid. It is simple to compute and has the basic properties that should be satisfied by any linearity measure. The new measure ranges over the interval (0, 1], and pro- duces the value 1 if and only if the measured curve is a perfect straight line segment.

  • 1. Background Information
    1. BACKGROUND INFORMATION The origins of Cardiff Metropolitan University can be traced back to 1865 when the Cardiff School of Art was first opened in the old library in Cardiff. In 1976, the School of Art, the College of Food Technology and Commerce (established 1940), the Cardiff College of Education (established 1950) and Llandaff College of Technology (established 1954) were merged to form the South Glamorgan Institute of Higher Education. The name was changed to Cardiff Institute of Higher Education in 1990. Until 1992, the institution was under the jurisdiction of South Glamorgan Council. Incorporated status was granted in 1992, this process occurring later in Wales than elsewhere in the UK. Key milestones in the development of Cardiff Metropolitan University as an autonomous institution include: 1993 Teaching Degree Awarding Powers (TDAPs) granted by the Privy Council. 1996 Became a college of the University of Wales and changed name to University of Wales Institute, Cardiff (UWIC). 2003 Became a Constituent Institution of the University of Wales. 2009 Research Degree Awarding Powers (RDAPs) granted by the Privy Council. 2011 Withdrew from the University of Wales and changed name to Cardiff Metropolitan University. With just over 1000 staff, more than 12,000 students and an annual turnover of approximately £83 million, Cardiff Metropolitan University is, in terms of size, in the middle range of the UK university sector. A recent investment of £50m in the Estates Strategy has focused on the development of a new Cardiff School of

In 1814 it remained largely French-speaking, though it had been politically British for 600 years. The island's only town, St Peter Port (which in 1814 accommodated over half the population) had during the previous century developed a thriving commercial sector with strong links to England, whose cultural influence it began to absorb. The rural hinterland was, by contrast, characterised by a traditional autarkic regime more redolent of pre­ industrial France. By 1914, the population had doubled, but St Peter Port's share had fallen to 43 percent.
