He was a left-handed opening batsman. He represented New Zealand in 38 Tests from 2000 to 2004. During his cricketing career he played for Auckland, Buckinghamshire and Otago. Richardson began his career as a left-arm spinner, batting at number 10. As his bowling ability declined, he worked on developing his batting, to the point where he was selected as an opening batsman for New Zealand, at age 29. Richardson scored 2776 Test runs at an average of 44.77, including four centuries and 19 fifties. His sole Test wicket came in a match against Pakistan in 2001, dismissing Mohammad Yousuf, then known as Yousuf Youhana, caught and bowled for 203. Richardson was the fieldsman who caught Australian leg-spinner Shane Warne on 99, the closest the Australian came to a century in test cricket. -

The Political and Performative Effects of Psychological Studies on Abortion and Mental Health
74 Constructing women as mentally troubled: The political and performative effects of psychological studies on abortion and mental health MARITA LEASK Abstract In recent years, there has been a growing body of research that claims that there is a link between abortion and mental health problems among women. While there is extensive critique of this research, there is less of an understanding of the wider social and political implications of disseminating the idea that women who have abortions are mentally troubled. This paper examines the political and performative effects of this body of psychological research that represent abortion as pathological and those who seek it as needing legal protection, focusing particularly on the context of New Zealand. A two-fold critique is developed: first, I look at the political implications of this research; namely, the way that anti-abortion groups in New Zealand have used this research to galvanise support to restrict access to abortions. Second, I also consider its performative impact, in terms of the ability for such research to be constituted as ‘truth’, edging out alternative explanations of women’s heterogeneous experiences of abortions. Key words abortion, mental health, performative, abortion politics, abortion law Introduction In academic and popular discourses in New Zealand, abortion is increasingly being linked with causing mental health problems. The claim that abortion causes mental health problems is propagated by ‘neutral’ psychologists and politicised anti-abortion groups alike (Lee, 2003). Such studies seek to make universal claims about the (negative) mental health effects of abortion and ignore the social landscape that stigmatises abortion and the variation in women’s experiences of abortion. -

VIEWPOINT Doctors’ rights to conscientiously object to refer patients to abortion service providers Angela Ballantyne, Colin Gavaghan, Jeanne Snelling ABSTRACT A er five decades of restrictive laws, New Zealand is on the cusp of law reform that may result in abortion being treated as a health, rather than a criminal, matter. Given this possible liberalisation, a pressing issue is the way in which ‘conscientious objection’ (CO) will be accommodated within the new legislative landscape. In this context, CO constitutes a health provider refusing, on the grounds of personal conscience, to provide care that, although legal and potentially clinically appropriate, conflicts with their personal moral views. Currently, New Zealand law permits significant concessions for conscientious objectors. This paper argues that in the light of current reform, the justification for permitting CO should be revisited. It claims that even if it is conceded that some form of CO should be respected, a pragmatic compromise must be adopted so that both provider’s and women’s rights are su iciently protected. We argue that the current legal situation in New Zealand is unbalanced, favouring the rights of providers at the expense of women’s timely access to abortion care. At a minimum, providers with a CO should be required to ensure an indirect referral to another provider who is willing to refer the woman to abortion services. Abortion in New Zealand legal abortion on the grounds of social and 3 Statistics indicate that around a fi fth economic circumstances. of New -

EVOLUTION OF THE ABORTION LAW AND ITS PRACTICE IN POLAND AGAINST THE BACKGROUND OF THE CURRENT LEGAL FRAMEWORK IN NEW ZEALAND Justyna Eska-Mikołajewska1 The article presents a comparative study on abortion legislation in Poland and New Zealand. It includes a historical overview of the social and political influenc- es shaping the contemporary approach to abortion in these countries. The aim of the article is to discuss the changes to the Polish and New Zealand abortion legislation and the current procedures required to access abortion. This article highlights differences in approaches to this issue in both countries where abortion laws have evolved recently in opposite directions. In New Zealand, after removing abortion from the Crimes Act 1961, abortion ceased to be the subject to criminal law, while in Poland where one of the strictest anti-abortion laws had been in force already, a ban was imposed on abortion which made it practically impossible for women to access legal abortions. -
Historical Review Volume XXII October, 1945 Number 4
: The North Carolina Historical Review Volume XXII October, 1945 Number 4 THE SALT SUPPLY OF NORTH CAROLINA DURING THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION By R. L. Hilldrup Salt was as essential to the armies of 1776 as gasoline is to the armies of 1945. When it was not obtainable the horses of the quartermaster's corps and of the cavalry became weak, meats spoiled, and soldiers mutinied. The Continental Army occasion- ally incurred a great expense in time, wagons, and money to secure an adequate supply of the precious commodity. Salt was also necessary for the maintenance of the morale of civilians. It was their chief preservative for fish and meats. Fish- ing was a highly important industry in the New England colo- nies. The Middle Atlantic and Southern colonies raised huge quantities of beef and pork. Salted fish and salted meat were foods frequently seen on the tables of the American colonist. Besides, salt was needed for their livestock, for the curing of hides, and as a condiment. When pioneers were selecting spots for a new settlement one of the first questions they asked was Where can we get salt? 1 Glass canning jars and tin cans had not been invented; and artificial refrigeration was still a dream out of fairyland. In no other colony was beef and pork as important in the eco- nomic life of the people as in North Carolina. Great herds of hogs and cattle were raised there during the late colonial and revolu- tionary periods. Cowpens were scattered over the back-country. Grazing ranges were extensive. -
