Battle for the Floodplains
Battle for the Floodplains: An Institutional Analysis of Water Management and Spatial Planning in England Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the for the Degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Karen Michelle Potter September 2012 Abstract Dramatic flood events witnessed from the turn of the century have renewed political attention and, it is believed, created new opportunities for the restoration of functional floodplains to alleviate the impact of flooding on urban development. For centuries, rural and urban landowning interests have dominated floodplains and water management in England, through a ‘hegemonic discourse alliance’ on land use development and flood defence. More recently, the use of structural flood defences has been attributed to the exacerbation of flood risk in towns and cities, and we are warned if water managers proceeded with ‘business as usual’ traditional scenarios, this century is predicted to see increased severe inconveniences at best and human catastrophes at worst. The novel, sustainable and integrated policy response is highly dependent upon the planning system, heavily implicated in the loss of floodplains in the past, in finding the land for restoring functioning floodplains. Planners are urged to take this as a golden opportunity to make homes and businesses safer from flood risk, but also to create an environment with green spaces and richer habitats for wildlife. Despite supportive changes in policy, there are few urban floodplain restoration schemes being implemented in practice in England, we remain entrenched in the engineered flood defence approach and the planner’s response is deemed inadequate. The key question is whether new discourses and policy instruments on sustainable, integrated water management can be put into practice, or whether they will remain ‘lip-service’ and cannot be implemented after all. -
Culture Club Announced Alongside Jessica Mauboy, Dami Im and Paul Kelly for 6Th AACTA Awards Presented by Foxtel
MEDIA RELEASE Strictly embargoed until 12.01am on Tuesday 22 November 2016 Culture Club announced alongside Jessica Mauboy, Dami Im and Paul Kelly for 6th AACTA Awards presented by Foxtel In the lead up to Australia’s biggest film and television Awards, the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts (AACTA) has announced that iconic UK pop group Culture Club will be performing at the 6th AACTA Awards presented by Foxtel, alongside Australian artists Paul Kelly, Jessica Mauboy and Dami Im like you’ve never seen her before. Culture Club’s performance at the Awards Ceremony will be their only televised performance and will feature the original band line up: singer Boy George, guitarist and keyboardist Roy Hay, bassist Mikey Craig and drummer Jon Moss. Culture Club are returning to Australia for an Encore Tour in mid- December, which will see them perform in some capital cities and several winery shows. Australia’s love affair with Culture Club continues and their June tour saw them sell out shows and perform to rave reviews. Boy George said he was “Thrilled to be coming back to Australia and to be performing at Australia’s biggest celebration of film and television.” The Grammy Award winning group will bring their own unique style and performance to the AACTA Awards. Selling more than 150 million records worldwide, with multiple worldwide number one singles including Do You Really Want to Hurt Me and the BRIT Award-winning Karma Chameleon, Culture Club are one of the true icons of the world music scene. ARIA Award winning actress and Sony Music recording artist Jessica Mauboy will return to perform at the AACTAs four years since her show-stopping performance at the 2nd AACTA Awards, where she also won the AACTA Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in THE SAPPHIRES. -

Boy George (George O'Dowd) (b. 1961) by Tina Gianoulis Boy George performing Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. in London in 2001. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Photograph by Jessica Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Hansson. Image appears under the Boy George is, like many middle-aged queers, a survivor. And, like many pop icons, Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike one of the main trials he has had to survive is his own fame. License Version 2.5. The Boy George persona, which came to international attention with the success of the band Culture Club in the early 1980s, threatened to overshadow completely Boy George the performer. However, George's talent, resilience, and genuine affability have seen him through his band's breakup, his own drug addiction, an unexpected solo comeback, and a 1998 reunion with Culture Club. Retaining his sense of style and eclecticism throughout, George has proved he is not merely a stage persona, but also a real original and a gay pioneer. Born in Bexleyheath, a cheerless section of South London, on June 14, 1961, George Alan O'Dowd was the third of six children born to working class Irish parents. His father, a builder and boxing coach, and his mother, who worked in a nursing home, had little attention to spare to give emotional support to their children, especially little George, who showed signs of being "different" from a very early age. He often showed up at church in outlandish hats and platform shoes. Indeed, the eccentric clothes he wore to school got him assigned to a class for incorrigibles. -

Use and Abuse of Oral Evidence Roy Hay Introduction People Have Always Been Concerned to Find out About the Past and Have Devise
Use and abuse of oral evidence Roy Hay Introduction People have always been concerned to find out about the past and have devised ways of passing on to later generations information about the history of each particu1ar group. In modern industrial societies, written evidence and accounts of the past have become the dominant forms, but the oral tradition has not completely died out. Indeed, as interest has grown in the relatively recent past, the use of oral sources and the presentation of oral or audio-visual forms of history have both revived. This booklet had its origins in a talk given to some schoolteachers who wanted to experiment with oral history projects for their students. Since then it has gone through a variety of forms and been used in many different ways. Its purpose remains the same. It was intended to encourage people to make use of oral evidence in their study of the past, but to do so in a reflective way. Oral evidence is similar in many respects to other historical sources and requires the same techniques of criticism and analysis. It has its own peculiar problems and the booklet addresses some of these. There is no single, correct way to use oral evidence in historical studies. New methods and new uses are continually occurring, throwing up ideas which often become incorporated into mainstream historical approaches. Oral history is still a young and exciting field of study and one which touches people more closely than some other branches of historical study. This booklet tries to convey some of that excitement as an invitation to the greater use of oral evidence in the future. -
