  • The Christchurch Earthquake Appeal
    Westminster Abbey CHRISTCHURCH EARTHQUAKE MEMORIAL SERVICE Sunday 27 March 2011 Noon 2 Diocese of Christchurch, New Zealand A MESSAGE FROM THE BISHOP OF CHRISTCHURCH On 22 February at 12.51 pm, many people in Christchurch were busy at work or having lunch. Schools had closed early that day so a large number of children were on their way home. Very quickly, the enormity of the earthquake became apparent; as buildings collapsed people rushed to save themselves and others with examples of spontaneous, selfless courage—often to total strangers. Now, almost a month later and in the aftermath of the Christchurch Memorial Service, people are still grieving. News of Japan’s disaster sent a chill through Christchurch again. There is thankfulness to be alive and a desire to help others. There is also overwhelming gratitude for the outpouring of love, support, and assistance from other nations. Thank you to the people of London and beyond who have such heart for Kiwis, particularly the strong expatriate community. Thank you for your care and compassion, and please continue to pray for New Zealand and the people of Christchurch. To all those who have lost loved ones our prayers of consolation, compassion, and intercession are offered. ‘Rest eternal grant unto them, O Lord. And let light perpetual shine upon them.’ May they rest in peace and rise in glory. May those who remain honour the memory of the departed. They will not be forgotten and the future Christchurch will be shaped by their memory. In the compassionate love of Christ, + Victoria Bishop of Christchurch Christchurch, New Zealand 3 Members of the congregation are kindly requested to refrain from using private cameras, video, or sound recording equipment.

  • Sarah Class Biography
    SARAH CLASS BIOGRAPHY “ Sarah Class is one of Britain’s brightest musical stars. Her style is both hauntingly ethereal and sensual, mingling folky influences and a powerfully romantic blend of orchestral and electronic sonorities…..” HMV Classical Reviews Magazine Emmy and Brit nominated Sarah Class has become one of Britains most sought after composers and is described as having ‘the midas touch’ when it comes to creating music. An award winning, accomplished musician, scoring for films, television and the concert arena, producer, songwriter, and singer, Sarah brings a special array of talents to every commission. A classically trained pianist from an early age, Sarah developed a huge love of jazz and improvisation. At 18 she started in the recording studio at Chichester University creating her own compositions and studying jazz piano. She gained a high (B,A Hons.) degree in Music with Related Arts. After graduating she went straight into the music business travelling extensively through Europe and the USA writing and performing with other artists developing her own unique style. Her ability as a composer was soon recognised, and as the attached credits show she quickly started to make her mark in the world of television and subsequently the film in- dustry.Sarah’s first major break was when she was asked to compose the score for an in- dependent feature film titled ‘The Weekend’ starring Gina Rowlands and Brooke Shields. This production brought Sarah to the attention of legendary producer Sir George Martin who subsequently took her under the wing of George Martin Music to help and guide her career.

We recovered 47 bacterial species (28 genera and 14 families) from all samples with 51.1% of these belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae. Fourteen species (29.8%) were detected in both crocodile species and 18 (38.3%) and 15 (31.9%) species were only detected in American and Morelet’s crocodiles, respectively. We recovered 35 bacterial species from all oral samples, of which 9 (25.8%) were detected in both crocodile species. From all cloacal samples, we recovered 21 bacterial species, of which 8 (38.1%) were detected in both crocodile species. The most commonly isolated bacteria in cloacal samples were Aeromonas hydrophila and Escherichia coli, whereas in oral samples the most common bacteria were A. hydrophila and Arcanobacterium pyogenes. The bacteria isolated represent a potential threat to crocodile health during conditions of stress and a threat to human health through crocodile bites, crocodile meat consumption or carrying out activities in crocodile habitat.
