Race 9 What a B of a Race What a B of a Race! Wednesday Wonders Summer Series 2014-15 Race 9 26 November 2014 With the IY 60 BELLE (Doug Painter) winning the race and recording the fastest time; the Bavaria Match 42 BARNSTORMER (Brian Barnes) finishing 2nd after winning Start of the Day; and BARCARDI (Martin Power) sailing into 3rd place there seemed to be an advantage for yacht’s with name’s beginning with B. There was also some benefit to be gained starting towards the back of the fleet with 12 of the 14 late starters finishing amongst the first 14 yachts to complete the race. It wasn’t until the Farr 1020 WAVELENGTH finished 16th and crossed the line at 16:00:49 that a yacht with a handicap less than 35 minutes completed the course. This somewhat skewed result was influenced by the southeasterly breeze, which started at less than 5 knots at 1330 but had become over 15 knots at 1500. Early starters had to contend with the gentle breeze and a slow first leg not experienced by the late starters.

This 6-leg course comprised 4 running legs and 2 beats out to number 5 and 1 respectively. BELLE stamped her mark on this race sailing the course in 1:29:03. This was 9 minutes 42 seconds faster than any other yacht in the race. She was 70 seconds late for her 53 minute start from last (41st) place but was in 18th place at the first rounding of number 4 which is about 54% of the total course distance. She went on to win the race when she crossed the line at 15:52:03. BELLE has sailed 6 races in the series and this was her first podium finish and best result to date. It was enough to lift her from 15th place in the aggregate after race 8 to 6th position after race 9. BARNSTORMER has sailed all 9 races this series but a 2nd place in this race is her first podium finish of the series. She started from 29th place right on her handicap time of 43 minutes and after sailing for 1:02:56 she rounded number 4 for the first time in 15th place. With the help of the strengthening breeze she sailed the remaining 3 legs of the course in 41 minutes 14 seconds to cross the line at 15:57:10 after recording the 8th fastest time of the race. BARNSTORMER’S handicap has been between 42 and 44 minutes for this series and the more she sails the better the results. BARNSTORMER is currently 7th in the aggregate. BARCARDI started 28th, one place behind BARNSTORMER, 43 seconds late for her 39-minute handicap. She had an excellent first three legs being first around number 4 at 15:13:10. However some keen race observer’s thought there may have been a small but significant tactical error when BACARDI seemed to round the wrong yellow mark. (They all look the same at a distance its only when you get close they are different). However after correcting her error BACARDI sailed the last three legs of the course in 45 minutes to cross the line in 3rd place at 15:58:10 just 1 minute behind BARNSTORMER. BACARDI has only completed 4 races in the series but has recorded 2 top ten results with a 4th and a 3rd. She is 44th in the aggregate. (It was costly race for Martin with a few bearings to replace to get Bacardi mobile again to prevent her running aground MW.) Start of the Day produced an intriguing result with BARNSTORMER right on time and all but 4 of the fleet starting within 45 seconds or less of their handicaps. There seemed to be a record attempt at the latest ever starts with MIDNIGHT MAGIC (Bernadette Moore) missing the start by 19 minutes 41 seconds! She started 14th rather than 2nd.

  • The Role of Negative Implications in the Interpretation of Commonwealth Legislative Powers
    THE ROLE OF NEGATIVE IMPLICATIONS IN THE INTERPRETATION OF COMMONWEALTH LEGISLATIVE POWERS MICHAEL STOKES* One of the bases for the view that Commonwealth powers should be interpreted broadly is the idea that it is wrong to draw negative implications from positive grants of power. The paper argues that far from being wrong to draw negative implications from positive grants of power it is necessary to do so in that it is impossible to interpret such grants sensibly without drawing negative implications from them. This paper considers Isaacs J’s argument in Huddart Parker that it is wrong to draw negative implications from positive grants of power, as it is the most detailed defence of that position, and the adoption of similar arguments in Work Choices. It then considers the merits of Isaacs J’s argument, rejecting it because it is impossible to interpret positive grants of power without drawing negative implications from them in any context and in the Australian constitutional context in particular. This paper looks at how the scope of such implications is to be determined and how constitutional grants of power ought to be interpreted in the light of negative implications. It concludes that it is possible to determine the scope of the negative implications implicit in the s 51 grants of power and to interpret those powers in the light of the implications while accepting that state powers are residual and that their content cannot be determined until the content of all Commonwealth powers is known.

Household names, often with preserved archives, have had their company stories written by academics, journalists, and former senior employees. Broader national studies have analysed the role that big business has played in a country’s economic development. While sometimes this work has alleged oppressive anti-competitive behaviour, much has been written from a more positive perspective. Business historians, influenced by the pioneering work of Alfred Chandler, have implicated the ‘visible hand’ of large scale enterprise in national economic development particularly through their competitive strategies and modernised governance structures, which have facilitated innovation, the integration of national markets, and the growth of professional bureaucracies. While our understanding of the role of big business has been enriched by an aggregation of case studies, some writers have sought to study its impact through economy-wide lenses. This has typically involved constructing sets of the largest 100 or 200 companies at periodic benchmark years through the twentieth century, and then analysing their characteristics – such as their size, industrial location, growth strategies, and market share - and how they changed over time.

  • THE IMPACT of HIGH COURT DECISIONS on the GOVERNANCE of AUSTRALIA I Regard It As a Great Honour to Be Asked to Give the Annual
    THE IMPACT OF HIGH COURT DECISIONS ON THE GOVERNANCE OF AUSTRALIA I regard it as a great honour to be asked to give the annual Hal Wootten Lecture. Hal Wootten has been one of the most significant figures in Australian legal history. He was a practising barrister who became a Queens Counsel and the leader of the Industrial Bar. He was an innovative Supreme Court judge for 10 years. As Royal Commissioner into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody, he brought home to the consciousness of the Australian people that the real issue was not why so many Aboriginals were dying in prison – whether by suicide or otherwise - but why so many Aboriginals were in prison. These were great achievements. Nevertheless, many knowledgeable lawyers would say that his greatest legal achievement was developing this Law School and the Aboriginal Legal Service which commenced shortly after its foundation. That is because the object for which this Law School was founded will continue to be achieved long after those of us present tonight have gone. Lawyers and many others assume that he came to the Law School to achieve social justice for disadvantaged groups. No doubt that was one of the objects. But it would be more accurate to say that his purpose in coming to the Law School was to achieve justice for all. As he has been at pains to point out publicly, he saw a major object of a Law School as producing lawyers who would see the legal profession as having a duty to serve the whole of society. That meant 1 producing lawyers who had the ability to meet the needs of business, governments and ordinary citizens as well as disadvantaged groups like Aboriginals.

  • Constitutional Restraints on Trade and Commerce in Australia and Canada
    188 The University of Queensland Law Journal, Vol. 9, NO.2 Constitutional Restraints on Trade and Commerce in Australia and Canada J.M. HERLIHY* When the two federations of Canada and Australia were established, it was understood that thereafter the several provinces or colonies would, within each federation, constitute one trading area. This understanding of the founders of both nations has been met within the constitutional framework of both federa- tions, and it is the purpose of this article to examine the different provisions, and their application, in relation to the concept of freedom of trade within the two countries. Freedom of trade will be discussed in the constitutional context, and not in the sense of freedom from trade restraints. The discussion will relate to the guaranteed freedom from governmental interference, either National, Provin- cial or State, given to citizens of both countries by their respective Constitu- tions. I shall first discuss Australia. Under the Constitution of the Commonwealth, powers to legislate over trade and commerce are distributed between the Commonwealth and State Parlia- ments. The Federal Parliament has been given power over interstate and foreign trade and commerce, while the State Parliaments have the residue power to legislate with respect to intrastate trade activity.' The Federal power was construed rather narrowly in the early years of Federation, for example, in the Railway Servants Case,2 the High Court of Australia stated that the power only authorised laws, the effect of which, upon interstate and overseas trade was "direct, substantial and proximate".' These, it is seen, are indefinable words, but as interpreted by the High Court were used to cut down any wide sweep that may have been given to the Commonwealth under Section 51(1) of the Constitution.

  • (Formerly Ulimaroa) 630 St Kilda Road, Melbourne
    Richard Peterson: A Place of Sensuous Resort: Buildings of St Kilda and Their People 48 Royal College of Anaesthetists of Australia and New Zealand (formerly Ulimaroa) 630 St Kilda Road, Melbourne Ulimaroa is one of only five surviving nineteenth century St Kilda Road mansions in what was once a glorious avenue of mansions. All five were designed by important architects. The others comprise: Charlesfield (1889) by Charles Webb, at 478; Estella (now the Willows, 1890) by G.Woolf, at 462; Airlie (1891), by Anketell Henderson at 452 and Warwillah (Redholme) by John Beswicke at 572. In 1875, the first residential allotments on the west side of St Kilda Road (then Melbourne Road) were offered for sale by the Colonial Government. The Fawkner Park frontages on the east side had been sold from 1859, in the face of vigorous protest from Council and the public. Prior to 1859, St Kilda Road passed entirely within parkland. As early as 1855, there was a proposal to subdivide the southern part of the parkland that became Albert Park, which did not proceed (19). James Kearney’s Plan of Melbourne and Suburbs shows an ambitious plan of streets radiating about the axis of the present Princes Street. In 1864, the Colonial Government made the Melbourne City Corporation and the Board of Land and Works, joint trustees of the parklands, including the South, or Albert Park. But the dimensions of the park reservation remained uncertain. Alienation of parklands began then, as an issue which continues with no less anguish today, 145 years later. So the March 1875 surprise government announcement in the St Kilda Advertiser was worded with the kind of astuteness recognisable in the twenty-first century: It has been decided by the Government to permanently reserve the Albert Park Lagoon and the greater portion of the park, for recreative purposes.

"The principle of a minimum wage involves as its converse the principle of compulsory labour.... Lastly, there is the obvious bludgeon of 'compulsory arbitration:' '2 A bludgeon so obvious that it is revolting even to our proletariat." It is probably needless to remind the reader that the leaders of the American "labor movement" have been adamant in their resistance to all suggestions looking toward any legal scheme of compulsory arbitration; and The New Republic during this past summer laid it down ex cathedra, that-"Compulsory arbitration .

On the bright side, it is a pleasure to bring you our 40th edition of Call the Hands. This edition has a focus on catapult launched naval aircraft and their operation by R.A.A.F. personnel of No. 9 Squadron between 1935 and 1949. There is a significant amount of detail in the interesting ‘video of the month’ on cruiser launch and recovery operations as well as a table detailing the fate of various Seagull V aircraft operated by No. 9 Squadron. A number of whom lost their lives at sea in support of naval operations. Three occasional papers accompany this edition of Call the Hands. OP 75 on RAN involvement in the Vietnam War coincides with the 45th anniversary of the end of that War on 20 April 1975. Our thanks to Captain Ralph T. Derbidge MBE RAN Rtd for providing the paper. The second paper by Greg Swinden looks at the impact of the Spanish Influenza Epidemic of 1918-19 on the RAN. OP 76 by Dennis Weatherall examines the development and operations of HMAS Assault as an amphibious operations training establishment during WW2. If you have a previously unpublished paper of interest to fellow readers and wish to share it, we would like to hear from you.
