A 'Common-Sense Revolution'? the Transformation of the Melbourne City
A ‘COMMON-SENSE REVOLUTION’? THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE MELBOURNE CITY COUNCIL, 1992−9 A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy April, 2015 Angela G. Munro Faculty of Business, Government and Law Institute for Governance and Policy Analysis University of Canberra ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis is the culmination of almost fifty years’ interest professionally and as a citizen in local government. Like many Australians, I suspect, I had barely noticed it until I lived in England where I realised what unique attributes it offered, despite the different constitutional arrangements of which it was part. The research question of how the disempowerment and de-democratisation of the Melbourne City Council from 1992−9 was possible was a question with which I had wrestled, in practice, as a citizen during those years. My academic interest was piqued by the Mayor of Stockholm to whom I spoke on November 18, 1993, the day on which the Melbourne City Council was sacked. ‘That couldn’t happen here’, he said. I have found the project a herculean labour, since I recognised the need to go back to 1842 to track the institutional genealogy of the City Council’s development in the pre- history period to 1992 rather than a forensic examination of the seven year study period. I have been exceptionally fortunate to have been supervised by John Halligan, Professor of Public Administration at University of Canberra. An international authority in the field, Professor Halligan has published extensively on Australian systems of government including the capital cities and the Melbourne City Council in particular. -

But behind this statistic lies a big challenge. We are now facing rapidly increasing rates of chronic illness, linked to unhealthy lifestyles. The future for many will be years of poor health and wellbeing. There are many social, economic and environmental issues that are compromising our ability to live healthy lives. Their impact is magnified amongst disadvantaged members of the community. VicHealth works with governments, organisations and communities to create healthier social conditions and improved built environments for everyone.

The Oxford Dictionary of New Words: a Popular Guide to Words in the News
The Oxford Dictionary of New Words: A popular guide to words in the news PREFACE Preface This is the first dictionary entirely devoted to new words and meanings to have been published by the Oxford University Press. It follows in the tradition of the Supplement to the Oxford English Dictionary in attempting to record the history of some recent additions to the language, but, unlike the Supplement, it is necessarily very selective in the words, phrases, and meanings whose stories it sets out to tell and it stands as an independent work, unrelated (except in the resources it draws upon) to the Oxford English Dictionary. The aim of the Oxford Dictionary of New Words is to provide an informative and readable guide to about two thousand high-profile words and phrases which have been in the news during the past decade; rather than simply defining these words (as dictionaries of new words have tended to do in the past), it also explains their derivation and the events which brought them to prominence, illustrated by examples of their use in journalism and fiction. In order to do this, it draws on the published and unpublished resources of the Oxford English Dictionary, the research that is routinely carried out in preparing new entries for that work, and the word-files and databases of the Oxford Dictionary Department. What is a new word? This, of course, is a question which can never be answered satisfactorily, any more than one can answer the question "How long is a piece of string?" It is a commonplace to point out that the language is a constantly changing resource, growing in some areas and shrinking in others from day to day. -
ICOHTEC NEWSLETTER No 159 January 2019
ICOHTEC NEWSLETTER o N 159 January 2019 www.icohtec.org Lancia Rally 037 - Heart, Design, Project. "We achieved our most outstanding results with the Lancia Fulvia HF, Lancia Stratos, and the Fiat 131 Rally. But, in 1982, we will have to face a substantial rules changing and our programs have been revolutionised. We will race beginning from the month of April with the new Lancia Rally 037, as soon as it will be homologated, after the production of the two hundred samples prescribed by the new FIA GROUP B regulations ". This was December 14th, 1981, and Cesare Fiorio, manager of the Fiat Group's Competitions Activities announced the birth of the new weapon of the Fiat group for rallies: the Lancia Rally 037. A new car, mechanically different from the predecessors, built, conceived and projected according to the new Group B FIA Regulation (http://www.lanciarally037.com/progetto/progetto-regol-B.htm). The project developed thanks to the close collaboration among Lancia, Abarth and Pininfarina. The Lancia Rally 037 was made of a ruggedness structure that unites lightness and sturdiness, giving exceptional safety levels. Aggressive and refined, the Rally 037 was a sport thoroughbred with a "heart" of 2 litres, 16 valves, four cylinders, supercharged volumex compressor and central view mounted engine, a characteristic used until then only for few cars. Very powerful for the times, with its 205 Bhp it was able to easily overcome the 220 Km/h and to accelerate from 0 to 100 Km/h in less than seven seconds. The Rally 037 was both an aggressive and soft body-lines car, able to confer an aerodynamic load to create an effective aerodynamic lift to avoiding set-up variations at the high speeds. -

On the Couch with Robert Maclellan, 27 January 2015
On the Couch with Robert Maclellan, 27 January 2015 Grant Meyer MPIA CPP Photo: Robert Maclellan, January 2015 Planning News co-editor, Grant Meyer, recently caught up with former Kennett Government Planning Minister, Robert Maclellan, to reflect on his time in office. He speaks candidly on topics including: starting in the job, his relationship with the public service, local government, the planning profession, Docklands, Jeff Kennett, the former Kew asylum site and his legacy. For a man born on the 8th of March 1934, he is still exceptionally sharp and in good physical condition. He confides that he has recently had surgery to remove cataracts from his eyes and has subsequently experienced much improved sight. A review of parliamentary records reveals a 32 year career as a Liberal MP in the Victorian Parliament that included a stint as Leader of the Opposition (1982- 1985), a number of ministry positions, and for the purposes of this article, the Minister for Planning in the Kennett Government between 1992 and 1999. Planning News, 2015 1 Of note, in 2005 he was awarded the Member of the Order of Australia (AM) "for service to the Victorian Parliament, particularly in the areas of planning and transport, and to the community." Now living alone, he describes how his wife, Beverley, passed away in 2008 following a battle with bowel cancer. They had been married for 45 years. He has a good network of family and friends and gets out two evenings per week to play bridge locally. He’s not overly fond of the game but enjoys the social interaction with local men and women. -
