The SEA must be taken into account by the Council in developing the Local Plan which is eventually adopted. It must be available for public comment alongside the Plan itself. As the Local Plan passes through further stages of scrutiny, including the Examination, the SEA must be updated to reflect any changes in the Plan.

  • Further Studies of a Staggered Hybrid Zone in Musmusculus Domesticus (The House Mouse)
    Heredity 71 (1993) 523—531 Received 26 March 1993 Genetical Society of Great Britain Further studies of a staggered hybrid zone in Musmusculus domesticus (the house mouse) JEREMYB. SEARLE, YOLANDA NARAIN NAVARRO* & GUILA GANEMI Department of Zoology, University of Oxford, South Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3PS,U.K. Inthe extreme north-east of Scotland (near the village of Joim o'Groats) there is a small karyotypic race of house mouse (2n= 32), characterized by four metacentric chromosomes 4.10, 9.12, 6.13 and 11.14. We present new data on the hybrid zone between this form and the standard race (2n =40)and show an association between race and habitat. In a transect south of John o'Groats we demonstrate that the dines for arm combinations 4.10 and 9.12 are staggered relative to the dines for 6.13 and 11.14, confirming previous data collected along an east—west transect (Searle, 1991). There are populations within the John o'Groats—standard hybrid zone dominated by individuals with 36 chromosomes (homozygous for 4.10 and 9.12), which may represent a novel karyotypic form that has arisen within the zone. Alternatively the type with 36 chromosomes may have been the progenitor of the John o'Groats race. Additional cytogenetic interest is provided by the occur- rence of a homogeneous staining region on one or both copies of chromosome 1 in some mice from the zone. Keywords:chromosomalvariation, hybrid zones, Mus musculus domesticus, Robertsonian fusions, staggered dines. Introduction (Rb) fusion of two ancestral acrocentrics with, for Thestandard karyotype of the house mouse consists of instance, metacentric 4.10 derived by fusion of acro- 40 acrocentric chromosomes.

  • The Scottish Highlanders and the Land Laws: John Stuart Blackie
    The Scottish Highlanders and the Land Laws: An Historico-Economical Enquiry by John Stuart Blackie, F.R.S.E. Emeritus Professor of Greek in the University of Edinburgh London: Chapman and Hall Limited 1885 CHAPTER I. The Scottish Highlanders. “The Highlands of Scotland,” said that grand specimen of the Celto-Scandinavian race, the late Dr. Norman Macleod, “ like many greater things in the world, may be said to be well known, and yet unknown.”1 The Highlands indeed is a peculiar country, and the Highlanders, like the ancient Jews, a peculiar people; and like the Jews also in certain quarters a despised people, though we owe our religion to the Hebrews, and not the least part of our national glory arid European prestige to the Celts of the Scottish Highlands. This ignorance and misprision arose from several causes; primarily, and at first principally, from the remoteness of the situation in days when distances were not counted by steam, and when the country, now perhaps the most accessible of any mountainous district in Europe, was, like most parts of modern Greece, traversed only by rough pony-paths over the protruding bare bones of the mountain. In Dr. Johnson’s day, to have penetrated the Argyllshire Highlands as far west as the sacred settlement of St. Columba was accounted a notable adventure scarcely less worthy of record than the perilous passage of our great Scottish traveller Bruce from the Red Sea through the great Nubian Desert to the Nile; and the account of his visit to those unknown regions remains to this day a monument of his sturdy Saxon energy, likely to be read with increasing interest by a great army of summer perambulators long after his famous dictionary shall have been forgotten, or relegated as a curiosity to the back shelves of a philological library.

Other species which breed in more northerly latitudes are already heading south – you may hear them calling as they pass over, for Indoor Meetings & Field example, Whimbrel, or come across them stopping over at places like Trips for Session 2013-14 p2 Udale Bay.

ROB DONN MACKAY: FINDING THE MUSIC IN THE SONGS Ellen L. Beard Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Edinburgh 2015 ABSTRACT AND LAY SUMMARY This thesis explores the musical world and the song compositions of eighteenth-century Sutherland Gaelic bard Rob Donn MacKay (1714-1778). The principal focus is musical rather than literary, aimed at developing an analytical model to reconstruct how a non-literate Gaelic song-maker chose and composed the music for his songs. In that regard, the thesis breaks new ground in at least two ways: as the first full-length study of the musical work of Rob Donn, and as the first full-length musical study of any eighteenth-century Scottish Gaelic poet. Among other things, it demonstrates that a critical assessment of Rob Donn merely as a “poet” seriously underestimates his achievement in combining words and music to create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.
