    An Australian Mirage Author Hoyte, Catherine Published 2004 Thesis Type Thesis (PhD Doctorate) School School of Arts, Media and Culture DOI https://doi.org/10.25904/1912/1870 Copyright Statement The author owns the copyright in this thesis, unless stated otherwise. Downloaded from http://hdl.handle.net/10072/367545 Griffith Research Online https://research-repository.griffith.edu.au AN AUSTRALIAN MIRAGE by Catherine Ann Hoyte BA(Hons.) This thesis is submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Griffith University Faculty of Arts School of Arts, Media and Culture August 2003 Statement of Authorship This work has never been previously submitted for a degree or diploma in any university. To the best of my knowledge and belief, this dissertation contains no material previously published or written by another person except where due reference is made in the dissertation itself. Abstract This thesis contains a detailed academic analysis of the complete rise and fall of Christopher Skase and his Qintex group mirage. It uses David Harvey’s ‘Condition of Postmodernity’ to locate the collapse within the Australian political economic context of the period (1974-1989). It does so in order to answer questions about why and how the mirage developed, why and how it failed, and why Skase became the scapegoat for the Australian corporate excesses of the 1980s. I take a multi-disciplinary approach and consider corporate collapse, corporate regulation and the role of accounting, and corporate deviance. Acknowledgments I am very grateful to my principal supervisor, Dr Anthony B. van Fossen, for his inspiration, advice, direction, guidance, and unfailing encouragement throughout the course of this study; and for suggesting Qintex as a case study.

    Abbotsford Sailing Club News 07/04/2021 Wrap-up of the 85th 12Ft skiff Australian Championships It was an extremely lively Easter weekend at the club with all the 12ft skiff crews visiting, the racing and the dinners and socialising after the racing. The whole event was a great success, we had enough breeze to complete all the races, and the last day even offered a bit more spectacle, after some lighter days earlier in the weekend. All results, photos and videos are on our regatta page. A thank you to all the crews who participated and the 1 2ft skiff association for choosing Abbotsford for this regatta. As the president of the club, I really would like to thank all the members, friends, family and past members who helped out at the club, including the bar and canteen and the support on the water. A special thank you to Robyn and Barrie who, together with Judy, ran all the starts and finishes from Scout. A major effort and much appreciated! We will have those snacks and drinks ready for next time you are able to officiate! Also a big thank you to Tom Biskupic for being the on-shore race manager and race recorder, and keeping the race results up to date on the website. I also wanted to thank all our generous sponsors, whose support has helped make this regatta a great success. Please check out t he list on the regatta page. Last but not least, I would like to thank the Regatta committee and in particular Peter and Lisa Hill and Gai Dewane, for doing the majority of the organising.

  • 1. Gina Rinehart 2. Anthony Pratt & Family • 3. Harry Triguboff
    1. Gina Rinehart $14.02billion from Resources Chairman – Hancock Prospecting Residence: Perth Wealth last year: $20.01b Rank last year: 1 A plunging iron ore price has made a big dent in Gina Rinehart’s wealth. But so vast are her mining assets that Rinehart, chairman of Hancock Prospecting, maintains her position as Australia’s richest person in 2015. Work is continuing on her $10billion Roy Hill project in Western Australia, although it has been hit by doubts over its short-term viability given falling commodity prices and safety issues. Rinehart is pressing ahead and expects the first shipment late in 2015. Most of her wealth comes from huge royalty cheques from Rio Tinto, which mines vast swaths of tenements pegged by Rinehart’s late father, Lang Hancock, in the 1950s and 1960s. Rinehart's wealth has been subject to a long running family dispute with a court ruling in May that eldest daughter Bianca should become head of the $5b family trust. 2. Anthony Pratt & Family $10.76billion from manufacturing and investment Executive Chairman – Visy Residence: Melbourne Wealth last year: $7.6billion Rank last year: 2 Anthony Pratt’s bet on a recovering United States economy is paying off. The value of his US-based Pratt Industries has surged this year thanks to an improving manufacturing sector and a lower Australian dollar. Pratt is also executive chairman of box maker and recycling business Visy, based in Melbourne. Visy is Australia’s largest private company by revenue and the biggest Australian-owned employer in the US. Pratt inherited the Visy leadership from his late father Richard in 2009, though the firm’s ownership is shared with sisters Heloise Waislitz and Fiona Geminder.

    2020 ILYA Dues Volume 15, Issue 30---------- June 11, 2020 Dear ILYA Members and Enthusiasts, I want to update you on the status of ILYA regattas for the summer of 2020. As you know this process has been time consuming and arduous, yet has had some heartwarming moments. The host clubs who worked so hard to get their bids approved were asked last week to make a final decision, with their Board of Directors, on whether they could host their awarded ILYA regatta. Their decision processes were painstakingly thorough. It was exceedingly difficult for many to give up on a plan that they have been implementing for better than two years. However, if the regatta is not in the best interest of the club or the community, it should not happen. Please know that RCC and the ILYA Board will not forget the commitment you made to this process. For those clubs that had to say “No” your efforts will not be in vain and we are eager to get you back in the regatta rotation. This is what we know so far: E Invite at White Bear will not be held at White Bear C Invite at Pewaukee will be determined next week MC Invite at Okauchee will happen with restrictions upon RCC and Board approval X Champs at Geneva will not be held at Geneva ILYA Champs at Okoboji will not be held at Okoboji IOD East at North Lake will not be held at North Lake IOD Champs at Beulah will be determined next week While events may not happen at the original sites, an exploratory group of RCC members and fleet captains are analyzing and exploring other lake opportunities.
