  • SURREY COUNTY ATHLETIC NEWS (Issue 44 - August 2005)
    SURREY COUNTY ATHLETIC NEWS (Issue 44 - August 2005) 2012 AND ALL THAT With the 2012 Olympic Games being awarded to London the spotlight will be on sport in general over the next seven years. With Athletics being the premier Olympic discipline attention on our sport is likely to be intense. Already some of our athletes, whose performances in recent international championships are featured elsewhere in this edition of SCAN, are beinghighlighted as potential Olympians at the London Games. We have all seen how the media thrives on personalities and, on occasions, this has not been to the benefit of the sportsman or sportswoman concerned. We have to be mindful to protect our Junior athletes who may well not be equipped to handle all the hype that may be thrust upon them. It does not appear that the facilities to be built for the London Olympics will be within our county. Therefore, if we are to benefit from the “legacy” it is unlikely to be in terms of “bricks and mortar” but rather in less tangible items such as profile / awareness which will, we hope, lead to greater support from the community at large. The media has focused on the potential for greater success by British participants in a Games held on home soil. However, if the London Olympics are to provide a catalyst for a higher standard of participation by British athletes then we are more likely to see the improvement in 2016/2020 rather than 2012. It is now seven years before the 2012 Games. At the Athens Olympics Surrey had 6 athletes taking part whose ages in 1997 were 16, 17, 18, 23, 24 & 24 with all(except Joice Maduaka) havingparticipated inSurrey Track and Field Championships bythat time.

  • The Distribution and Impacts of Lippia (Phyla Canescens) in the Murray Darling System
    The Distribution and Impacts of Lippia (Phyla canescens) in the Murray Darling System. Final Report to the Lippia Working Group October 2003 Prepared by: Dr Judith Earl Agricultural Information & Monitoring Services ABN: 73 918 506 894 Contact Address: 73 Hardinge St Guyra NSW 2365 Phone: 02 6779 2286 Fax: 02 6779 2486 Email: [email protected] PHOTOGRAPHS: All photographs that appear in the document were taken by the author unless otherwise stated. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: The funding for this Murray Darling Lippia Working Group Project was provided by the Murray Darling Basin Commission and project management was provided by the Australian Cotton Cooperative Research Centre. This project was reliant on input from a vast number of individuals from a wide area, their cooperation and contribution to the project is greatly appreciated. i Executive Summary Lippia occurs predominantly on the clay soil floodplains of the inland river system in the 500- 800mm annual rainfall zone of Queensland and NSW, although it is present in varying density within each of the 19 catchments Murray Darling Basin. The worst affected catchments are the Condamine, Border Rivers, Gwydir, Namoi, Lachlan, Murrumbidgee and the Murray. Lippia is currently estimated to be distributed across at least 5% of the Murray Darling Basin occurring across a total area in the order of 5.3 million hectares. The spread of Lippia appears to be clearly related to flood events. Many farmers, particularly south of the Queensland border, stated that Lippia has become a problem since specific flood events. In the Gwydir region the Lippia population increased markedly following the 1996 flood and again after the 1998 floods.
