ACCESS VOL XXXII NO 3 SEPTEMBER 2011 Messagefrom the President As I write this article for the September issue of ACCESS, summer is just beginning. I hope everyone enjoyed the bit of good weather that we did get, and that you had some time to take care of yourself and relax with family and loved ones. The Council meeting on June 8 marked a milestone for ARNNL – for the first time we had students sitting at the Council table as observers! This is an initiative to increase nursing students’ awareness of ARNNL, and to spark their interest in becoming active ARNNL members once they graduate and become registered nurses, thus supporting the valuable profession they have chosen as their life’s work. From now on, one of the three schools of nursing will be represented Aat each Council meeting, with the exception of the meeting immediately preceding the biannual conference and annual general meeting (AGM), where all three sites will be represented and will then take in the conference as well. Students who attended this year’s meeting, AGM, and conference certainly appreciated the opportunity and enjoyed the experience. We look forward to a continued partnership with the schools of nursing to sustain this initiative in the future. June 9 and 10 marked ARNNL’s 57th AGM and certainly highlighted the busy year Council has had, and the many successes at ARNNL as a result of the hard work, commitment and dedication of our staff and volunteers. The two-day meeting was action-packed with the business of the Association, as well as numerous presentations related to evidence-based practice. There was also opportunity to honour some of our colleagues with Awards for Excellence in Nursing and Honorary Membership. Congratulations to all and thank you for your valuable contribution to the nursing profession and for the profound difference you make to individuals, families, and communities in Newfoundland and Labrador. One of the AGM events that Council is particularly proud of was the launch of the new ENDS. These ENDS were developed at an October 2010 strategic planning session and were presented during a member linkage session at the AGM. Council will now be working with these new ENDS to guide and monitor activity to move nursing practice and the Association into the future. These ENDS are fewer in number than previously, thereby making them more focused. They are also more geared toward areas that ARNNL has the ability to influence and therefore have an effect on. As we go forward, Council will be working with these ENDS to monitor successes and identify areas that need attention. The new mission of ARNNL is “Nursing Excellence for the Health of the Population” and the ENDS are in the areas of: • Accountability for Self-Regulation; • Professionalism; • Quality Professional Practice Environments; and • Healthy Public Policy. As we monitor progress on these ENDS, I look forward to reporting many successes moving the nursing profession into the future. I also look forward to continued linkage with ARNNL members (you) and owners (the public) to inform our work, which confirms our current ENDS and/or indicates a need for revision. Thank you for any input that you have given to date and I look forward to other opportunities to engage in linkage activity with you.

    D' an Examination of 17Th-Century British Burial Landscapes in Eastern

    ‘Here lieth interr’d’ An examination of 17th-century British burial landscapes in eastern North America by Robyn S. Lacy A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Archaeology Memorial University of Newfoundland September 2017 Abstract An archaeological, historical, and geographical survey-based examination, this research focuses on the first organized 17th-century British colonial burial grounds in 43 sites in New England and a further 20 in eastern Newfoundland, and how religious, socio- political, and cultural backgrounds may have influenced the placement of these spaces in relation to their associated settlements. In an attempt to locate the earliest 17th-century burial ground at Ferryland, Newfoundland, this research focuses on statistical analysis, and identifying potential patterns in burial ground placement. The statistical results will serve as a frequency model to suggest common placement and patterns in spatial organization of 17th-century British burial grounds along the eastern seaboard of North America. In addition, text-based and geochemical analyses were conducted on the Ferryland gravestones to aid in determining age and origin. ii Acknowledgments I would like to thank everyone who has provided their support and guidance throughout the course of this project. First, I’d like to thank Dr. Barry Gaulton for his endless assistance and support of my ever-growing thesis. I could not have asked for a better supervisor throughout this project, and I hope his future students know how lucky they are. Secondly, I’d like to thank my reviewers, Dr.

  • A Brief History of the Random Region of Trinity Bay

    A Brief History of the Random Region of Trinity Bay

    A Brief History of the Random Region of Trinity Bay A Presentation to the Wessex Society St. John's, Nfld. Leslie J. Dean April, 1994 Revised June 16, 1997 HISTORY OF THE RANDOM REGION OF TRINITY BAY INTRODUCTION The region encompassed by the Northwest side of Trinity Bay bounded by Southwest Arm (of Random), Northwest Arm (of Random), Smith's Sound and Random Island has, over the years, been generally referred to as "Random". However, "Random" is now generally interpreted locally as that portion of the region encompassing Southwest Arm and Northwest Arm. Effective settlement of the region as a whole occurred largely during the 1857 - 1884 period. A number of settlements at the outer fringes of the region including Rider's Harbour at the eastern extremity of Random Island and "Harts Easse" at the entrance to Random Sound were settled much earlier. Indeed, these two settlements together with Ireland's Eye near the eastern end of Random Island, were locations of British migratory fishing activity in Trinity Bay throughout the l600s and 1700s. "Harts Easse" was the old English name for Heart's Ease Beach. One of the earliest references to the name "Random" is found on the 1689 Thornton's map of Newfoundland which shows Southwest Arm as River Random. It is possible that the region's name can be traced to the "random" course which early vessels took when entering the region from the outer reaches of Trinity Bay. In all likelihood, however, the name is derived from the word random, one meaning of which is "choppy" or "turbulence", which appropriately describes 2 sea state conditions usually encountered at the region's outer headlands of West Random Head and East Random Head.

    Eastern Newfoundland Strategic Environmental

    Eastern Newfoundland Offshore Area Strategic Environmental Assessment 4.3 Human Activities The following provides an overview of the existing human environment of the SEA Study Area. This includes, initially, a high-level overview of the various regions and communities that comprise the Eastern Newfoundland region, as overall background and context. This overview is followed by a description of those human activities that are particularly relevant to the scope of the SEA. This includes marine fisheries and other activities and elements that occur within or near the marine environment, and which therefore have the potential to interact with, and be affected by, future oil and gas activities in the SEA Study Area. 4.3.1 Regions and Communities Newfoundland and Labrador is the easternmost province of Canada, and consists of the Island of Newfoundland (111,390 km2), as well as Labrador (294,330 km2) which is located to the northwest on the Canadian mainland. The province had a 2011 population of 514,536 residents (Statistics Canada 2013a). The Island of Newfoundland comprises less than 30 percent of the province’s total land area, but is home to nearly 95 percent of its population. Residents live in approximately 250 municipalities and many unincorporated communities that range in population from fewer than five to more than 100,000 (NLDMA 2013). Communities are widely distributed along the coastline as well as throughout the interior of the Island. The following provides general baseline information related to the eastern portion of the Island of Newfoundland, specifically along the coast, with a focus on various relevant socioeconomic characteristics such as population, economy, employment and business and housing.
