Environment template (REF5) Institution: University of Northumbria at Newcastle Unit of Assessment: 19 - Business and Management Studies a. Overview Research in this UoA is focused in three clusters: Entrepreneurship, Innovation and SMEs (developed from Operations and Information Systems Management), Risk, Ethics and Governance (developed from International Business and Governance) and Organisational Behaviour, Leadership and Development (developed from People and Organisations). These have each expanded and broadened in scope since 2008. While there is an emphasis on applied business-relevant research that has a high propensity for impact and that underpins consultancy, corporate learning partnerships and Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTPs), this is complemented by outputs making contribution to theory. b. Research strategy Strategic aims since 2008 The research strategy of the UoA in 2008-13 was to: extend our research-active academic staff base, in particular by increasing the number of doctorally-qualified staff; increase the quality and quantity of outputs; continue to expand the number of graduate students and doctoral completions; and place emphasis on KTP activity as a source of income and especially as a central pathway to impact. Achievement of Strategy 2008-2013 Continuing the strategic direction set out in RAE2008, the UoA has achieved the following: A total of 64 doctoral awards during the 2014 REF period compared with 39 awards during 2008 RAE period. Increased the number of research leaders, appointing eight Professors -

On the one hand religious theories stressed women’s natural fragility as better suited for domestic duties; on the other hand, women were expected to work, support themselves and their children. When those roles collided, the most vulnerable women were often trapped in lifecycle poverty. This dissertation examines women’s life events such as pregnancies, motherhood, illnesses, widowhood and ageing; and it investigates to what degree those elements had an impact on increased periods of their impoverishment and reliance on workhouses. -

The Brady Soil separates Bignell Loess from last glacial Peoria Loess and thick sections, which can reach 6 m thickness, may contain four buried soils beneath the modern surface soil. The Brady Soil has A/B/C horizonation, including a thick dark A and a blocky or prismatic structured B horizon. -
Paleopedology and Paleogeomorphology of the Early Oligocene Orella and Whitney Members, Brule Formation, White River Group, Toadstool Geologic Park, Nebraska
PALEOPEDOLOGY AND PALEOGEOMORPHOLOGY OF THE EARLY OLIGOCENE ORELLA AND WHITNEY MEMBERS, BRULE FORMATION, WHITE RIVER GROUP, TOADSTOOL GEOLOGIC PARK, NEBRASKA A Thesis Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree MASTER OF SICENCE GEOLOGY by William E. Lukens August 2013 ________________________________ Dr. Dennis O. Terry, Jr., Thesis Advisor ________________________________ Dr. David E. Grandstaff ________________________________ Dr. Alexandra Krull Davatzes ABSTRACT Understanding local and regional reactions to the global Eocene-Oligocene climate transition is a continuing challenge. The White River Group in the North American midcontinent preserves dynamic fluvial, volcaniclastic and lacustrine facies that yield to aeolianites. To test whether this shift in sedimentation style was driven by climate change, 20 paleosols from 8 profiles were analyzed from the fluvial-aeolian Orella Member through the aeolian-dominated Whitney Member of the earliest Oligocene Brule Formation at Toadstool Geologic Park, NE. Paleosol morphology and geochemistry were used to assess the balance of aeolian vs. alluvial sedimentation at key stratigraphic intervals and lithologic transitions. Significant loess deposition began at least as early as the lower Orella Member but is masked in most settings by concomitant fluvial deposition. As fluvial influence on landscapes waned across the Orella-Whitney Member boundary, loess deposits predominated and became more recognizable. Paleosols follow different -
THE BEADLE. the PARISH ENGINE. the SCHOOLMASTER. How Much
SKETCHES BY BOZ OUR PARISH CHAPTER I - THE BEADLE. THE PARISH ENGINE. THE SCHOOLMASTER. How much is conveyed in those two short words - 'The Parish!' And with how many tales of distress and misery, of broken fortune and ruined hopes, too often of unrelieved wretchedness and successful knavery, are they associated! A poor man, with small earnings, and a large family, just manages to live on from hand to mouth, and to procure food from day to day; he has barely sufficient to satisfy the present cravings of nature, and can take no heed of the future. His taxes are in arrear, quarter-day passes by, another quarter-day arrives: he can procure no more quarter for himself, and is summoned by - the parish. His goods are distrained, his children are crying with cold and hunger, and the very bed on which his sick wife is lying, is dragged from beneath her. What can he do? To whom is he to apply for relief? To private charity? To benevolent individuals? Certainly not - there is his parish. There are the parish vestry, the parish infirmary, the parish surgeon, the parish officers, the parish beadle. Excellent institutions, and gentle, kind-hearted men. The woman dies - she is buried by the parish. The children have no protector - they are taken care of by the parish. The man first neglects, and afterwards cannot obtain, work - he is relieved by the parish; and when distress and drunkenness have done their work upon him, he is maintained, a harmless babbling idiot, in the parish asylum. The parish beadle is one of the most, perhaps THE most, important member of the local administration. -
