John Ajaka agreed to: That the reporting date for the Select Committee on the NSW Taxi Industry be extended until Thursday 10 June 2010. REPUBLICATION AND REBROADCASTING OF PARLIAMENTARY PROCEEDINGS The PRESIDENT: I wish to bring to the attention of members the issue of the republication of extracts from Hansard by members for themselves or for distribution to third parties, and the rebroadcasting of video or audio footage of the proceedings of Parliament or provision of such footage to third parties. Members will shortly receive a briefing note outlining a number of issues in relation to the republication and rebroadcasting of parliamentary proceedings either in the form of Hansard or in the form of audiovisual footage available from Parliament. I want to highlight some of the more important issues raised in that briefing note. In relation to parliamentary privilege, members should be aware that while absolute privilege attaches to the publication of parliamentary proceedings in Hansard and on the Parliament's website, any subsequent republication or rebroadcasting by members or others is not afforded the same protection. Consequently, any person who publishes excerpts from Hansard or official footage may be exposed to legal liability if the material is defamatory. The republication or rebroadcast of parliamentary proceedings that includes defamatory material may, however, be protected under the defences to the publication of defamatory material under the common law and division 2 of part 4 of the Defamation Act 2005, sections 25 to 33. Those defences include the defence of justification, the defence of qualified privilege and the defence of fair report. In relation to the conditions that are set out in the briefing note for the republication or rebroadcasting of parliamentary proceedings under the Parliament's webcast conditions of access and copyright notice, I wish to advise members that the conditions are aimed at ensuring, to the greatest extent possible, that any republication or rebroadcast of parliamentary proceedings is considered to be fair and undertaken in good faith. 18 March 2010 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL 21633 PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARIES The Hon. JOHN HATZISTERGOS: I inform the House that on 10 March 2010 Ms Angela D'Amore, MP, was appointed as Parliamentary Secretary Assisting the Minister for Police, and Assisting the Minister for Climate Change and the Environment.

(2) Report No. 49, entitled "Citizen's Right of Reply (Mr D Kennedy) (No. 2)", dated March 2010. Ordered to be printed on motion by the Hon. Jennifer Gardiner. DEATH OF ROBERT WOODWARD, AM The PRESIDENT: I inform the House of the passing on Sunday 21 February 2010 of Mr Robert Woodward, AM, the architect who designed the fountain in this Parliament. Members and officers of the House stood in their places as a mark of respect.

    132 UNITED: A HISTORY OF THE MUNICIPAL EMPLOYEES UNION IN NSW 15 The Electricity Industry rom its earliest years the Union became involved in the electricity industry, enrolling F members employed in various classifications in the Electricity Department of the City Council, including workers at Pyrmont Power Station, but not embracing those employed as tradesmen.1 Issues over pay and conditions, seniority, and redundancies occurred regularly, particularly with fluctuations in the need for power supply. One early issue in 1915 was that time clocks were not opened until the precise time of ceasing work, which meant that employees could not have a bath before then, resulting in delays in leaving the premises and consequently missed transport connections. This was rectified by management agreeing to open time clocks five minutes before ceasing time.2 By 1924, the City Council had gradually extended its electricity supply area, retailing its power in thirty-four Sydney suburbs, and supplying electricity in bulk to another seven suburbs. However, to achieve this, the City Council had to purchase electricity from the Railway Commissioners. To meet increasing demands, the City Council then constructed the largest electricity generating power station in the Southern Hemisphere, seven miles (eleven kms.) from central Sydney, on the northern shore of Botany Bay. It was called Bunnerong (Aboriginal for Sleeping Lizard), the name of the area on which it was constructed. It was stated in 1928 that “it would stand as a monumental work of members of the Union, who were mainly employed on its construction, there being on site about one thousand employees”.3 Bunnerong Power Station Source: S.

  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

It is this idea that I believe has driven the Society for nearly 250 years. From a bag of coal during winter in the 18th century to an air conditioner amidst a heat wave in 2016, we have provided care and comfort when it is needed most. Whilst our assistance has evolved over time, our purpose has remained the same: we are people helping people. In 2016, the Society contributed over $900,000 to our charitable programs aiding the elderly, enabling students to complete their degrees and helping people in crisis. Your support had a direct effect on people—lifting them from despair, calming fears and giving them hope.

    Robyn Charlotte Spice Faculty of Health Sciences and Sport The University of Stirling Strong is the New Slim: A Study of the Body and Gender Amongst Female Free Weights Users Supervisor: Dr Irene A. Reid Thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Philosophy August 2016 1 Declaration I confirm that this thesis is my own work and I have read and fully understood the University of Stirling’s research postgraduate regulations. The thesis has not been published nor been presented to another examination board. 2 Acknowledgements Firstly, I offer my sincerest thanks to my first supervisor, Dr Irene A. Reid who has offered me continual guidance and support to help nurture me as a researcher. Dr Reid has been patient throughout this entire process; without her knowledge, encouragement and feedback this thesis would not have been completed to the same standard. I also would like to thank my second supervisor Dr Alison Jasper whose enthusiasm and encouragement has also been invaluable. An inexplicable amount of gratitude goes to the twenty women interviewed for the project as well as the two women interviewed during the pilot stage. Their willingness to take part and discuss the different topic areas has given me the opportunity to give a real insight into the female free weights community at the chosen facility. I would also like to thank the facility manager at the sports centre, where this study took place, for allowing me to use the fitness facility, as well as for providing images of the gym layout. I would like to thank the Faculty of Health Science and Sport at the University of Stirling and the Sports Development Service for giving me the opportunity to develop both as a researcher and as a fitness professional.

  • The Mathnawí of Jalálu’Ddín Rúmí
    THE MATHNAWÍ OF JALÁLU’DDÍN RÚMÍ EDITED FROM THE OLDEST MANUSCRIPTS AVAILABLE: WITH CRITICAL NOTES, TRANSLATION & COMMENTARY BY REYNOLD A. NICHOLSON LITT.D., LL.D., F.B.A. Sir Thomas Adams's Professor of Arabic and sometime Lecturer in Persian in the University of Cambridge VOLUME V & VI CONTAINING THE TRANSLATION OF THE THIRD & FOURTH BOOKS 1925–1940 INTRODUCTION With the publication of the sixth volume this work has reached a turning-point, and I should have liked to call a half for refreshment, especially as the next stages, though perhaps less tedious, are more difficult and hazardous than those already traversed. It would be pleasant to employ a sabbatical year in studies unconnected with the Mathnawí; for example, in making a catalogue of a small but interesting collection of Oriental manuscripts which I hope will go to the University Library after I have done with them. But such diversions, while they might help to relieve the statutorily prescribed for persons of my age, cannot be allowed to interrupt the progress of the work in hand. Now that text and translation are complete, a commentary is needed to give substance to the translation, which by itself is often little more than a shadow; and the commentary must be reasonably full. At present I can only guess how far it may spread: in any case it will not exceed three volumes, and if two suffice, so much the better. Economy of space is comparatively unimportant, but one has to save time. The Fifth and Sixth Books of the Mathnawí, composed when the author was approaching his seventieth year, show signs, I think, of failing power.
