Robert (Bob) Burgess
[edit]
|
|---|
There was some surprise when 22 year old Robert Burgess was selected for the 1st Test against the 1971 Lions although he had played in the first North Island trial at Palmerston North. New Zealand lost the 1st Test but Burgess impressed as a player of rare talent. Following the 2nd Test several critics rated the Manawatu player the best All Black first five for over twenty years. He was outstanding in the memorable 22-12 victory at Lancaster Park scoring two brilliant tries and displaying his class as a running, passing five-eighth. A young Robert attended Westown School before coming to Palmerston North where he went to College Street and Intermediate Normal before going to P.N.B.H.S. in 1962. After a year at Hastings B.H.S. in 1963 Burgess returned to P.N.B.H.S. playing for the 1st XV 1964-65-66 being with other future All Blacks Ian Stevens and John Loveday for the last two years. Attending Massey University in 1967, 18 year old Burgess was included in the Manawatu squad for the last game, against Taranaki and was to play the final twenty minutes as a replacement full-back. Throughout 1968 he was Manawatu's first-five and goal kicker, also representing N.Z. Juniors and N.Z. Universities against Japan. He scored 105 points, 83 being for Manawatu. Injured early 1969 Burgess gave away rugby to concentrate on studies, returning in 1970 to tour Japan with the Universities and represent Southland whilst teaching at Southland B.H.S. In May, 1970 he declined nomination for the All Black trials, to select the team to tour South Africa, as a protest in opposition to apartheid. Back at Massey in 1971 Burgess made two rep. appearances before selection for the Lions test series. In the 65th minute of the 3rd Test he was concussed in a heavy tackle and as he lay motionless there was panic until Lions fullback and medical student J.P.R. Williams quickly prised open Burgess' jaw to hold his tongue which was choking him. Carried unconscious from Athletic Park on a stretcher he was taken to hospital, to be released two days later. His rugby was finished for the season. In 1972 Burgess made the All Black internal tour, coached by Jack Gleeson, and represented North Island before he suffered glandular fever which kept him out of the first two Tests against Australia, but recovered in time to play the third. At the end of the season he was off to Britain for what has become the last of the long tours, 32 games in four months. Burgess played in the Wales, Ireland and France internationals but was injured after selection for the Scotland match, his position being taken by his old Boys' High team mate Ian Stevens, who also played against England. Burgess played 19 tour games but was seldom able to play his natural style and often forced to play a kicking role. For the major games his half-back was the unpredictable Sid Going who never held a reputation for giving his first-five "arm-chair service." Rugby News, in its review of the tourists, wrote of Burgess, “Helped beat Wales with his kicking, shattered Neath and Aberavon with his running kicked badly against Ireland; dropped passes against France. Think of a performance and Burgess played it on this tour sometimes brilliant, sometimes muddling. Never bad. He's too brilliant a player for that. Best when paired with Colling for the running game. Magnificent hands that scarcely ever failed him. Electrifying burst of speed. More could have been made of his individualism, less of his boot." Back with Massey in 1973 Burgess was able to play his natural game with the young enterprising University backline which included Francis, Blair, Kidd, Hawkins, Rollerson and Innes. After three rep. games the botany student pulled out of rugby to concentrate on his studies before leaving for France where he joined Manawatu flanker Ron de Cleene to play for Lyon Olympique Universitaire, in Lyon, from 1973 until 1975. His form was so outstanding that one season he was voted the best first-five in France. The Burgess family returned to Palmerston North in January 1976 and Robert continued his involvement in rugby as a club coach until 1981 when he withdrew his services in order to spend more time with his young family and to actively campaign against the 1981 Springbok tour of New Zealand. Robert also returned to his studies, receiving his PhD in botany from Massey University. It is a pity Manawatu and New Zealand did not see more of Burgess, it is a pity also that more New Zealand backs did not posses the imaginative flair for the running game which he so enjoyed but, with the exception of university teams, so rarely allowed to play.

Griffith University students are currently uniquely represented by three student organisations as a legacy of the Griffith University Act (Qld), political differences and campus amalgamations. The Griffith University Student Representative Council (GUSRC) represents undergraduate students in all campuses apart from the Gold Coast. Its aims are to provide services and amenities to students, as well as advocacy and the organizing of social events. The organisation also runs a magazine called ‘’Gravity’’ and is an affiliate of the National Union of Students of Australia. In October of every year, the SRC has annual general elections to elect office bearers for the following year. Political environment[edit]The political environment of the SRC is quite unusual in the fact that it was polarised by an anti-socialist right-wing Labor faction known as the Griffith Labor Right and an ultra-left National Broad Left (NBL) grouping, which consisted of members of groups such as the International Socialist Organisation and Socialist Alternative. This can be contrasted with most Australian university student organisations where there is a Labor-left group that is a strong force in annual general elections. Since the introduction of VSU however, the SRC has become less political. As a result, more apolitical students have recently become involved whilst after three successive defeats, the radical left wing activists appear to have lost interest. Recent history[edit]The National Broad Left (NBL) had a history of being successful winning many of the annual elections during the 1990's,and having notable previous members of the SRC such as Mark Pendleton, (National Queer Officer of NUS 2001), and Camile Barbagello, (National Education Officer of NUS 2002), however in recent years members of the Griffith University Labor Club have dominated elections, usually winning with huge majorities. 2000-1[edit]The National Broad Left (NBL) won most of the annual elections during the 1990's, and made the SRC known as one of the most radical and ultra left student unions in Australia. However, a turning point occurred in 2000 when Duncan Pegg led some moderate Labor students in the annual general elections to a narrow victory, which included the election of an Executive split along factional lines. The result was an SRC which focused on student issues and welfare, as well as social events, rather than protests and financial donations to political groups. The Labor students used their foothold in the SRC to score a comprehensive victory of over 200 votes the following year. 2002[edit]In 2002, the Labor Right administration encountered controversy, after failed attempts to have a Miss Griffith beauty pageant and to close down the Food Co-op, a club of vegetarians who would use student monies to buy and eat organic foods. The SRC became further embroiled by a complaint to the Anti-Discrimination Commission Queensland, a battle with the university administration over Constitutional issues, staff strikes and allegations of corruption. The political momentum swung with the National Broad Left, resulting in a tight election campaign which NBL won by 80 votes. 2003[edit]The first National Broad Left administration in four years at Griffith started off with a lot of controversy, after an all-expense paid dinner at West End costing over $1000, the Nathan campus suffering huge funding cuts and the SRC car being used to help detainees in Woomera and was subsequently impounded[1]. Throughout the year, the SRC’s activism did not appeal to many students, contributing to a thumping defeat at a Mt Gravatt campus by-election, with the NBL Executive cutting off almost all funding to Mt Gravatt in response. As the year wore on, the SRC’s budget deficit started to become very serious, reaching over $100 000 in July (taking into account Semester 2 fees). Lots more money was also spent later in the year taking the University to the Supreme Court of Queensland, after a dispute over changes to the Constitution. The many scandals resulted in the Labor Right faction triumphing in a then-record landslide victory (approx 400 votes). The following year, auditors calculated the deficit to have been $226 500, almost a third of the GUSRC’s entire annual revenue. 2004[edit]The SRC became increasingly controversial in 2004 when it re-wrote its Constitution and got the changes passed in a referendum with a 69% majority. The changes abolished the position of Environment Officer and replaced the Women's Officers with a Female Equity Officer. The reforms also increased accountability, implemented minimum funding to departments and created a Male Equity Officer. A week into the marathon referendum the National Broad Left decided to stop campaigning against the proposed Constitution, and instead decided to storm the GUSRC's Nathan office in frustration, accusing the right-wing Labor students of selling out students and the working class. 2005[edit]The year 2005 was characterised by much conflict and many forced resignations amongst the Labor Right faction, which had won every position on the GUSRC Board in the 2004 elections. Most of the infighting occurred as a result of Glen Chatterton [2], the joint Media Officer who forced David Allen to resign and replaced him as President. Chatterton during the course of the year also formed a 'faction within a faction'; a group of followers which formed in order to help members within this group secure positions and power within the SRC at the expense of other members of the Griffith Labor Right. This group operated to exclude others, reneged on deals made within the faction and was composed of weak and impressionable individuals, some with political ambitions but having little talent to support their ambitions. In spite of this, the Labor Right faction was sufficiently united in Semester 2 to win the elections for a third consecutive time by a new record margin, which included 83% of the primary vote. 2006[edit]In 2006, Glen Chatterton's reign on the GUSRC ended when he resigned. He annoited Finance Director Brenton Hill as his successor, and Anika Wells as Finance Director. However, the plan failed to actualise when Nathan Campus Co-ordinator Leon Bertrand obtained the support of a majority of the GUSRC Board and had himself appointed as President of the GUSRC at a Board meeting on March 13. Bertrand's opponents, refused to recognise his appointment as legitimate, and subsequently held their own meeting, which they represented to other parties as being valid. It all fell through however, when Bertrand filed an application in the Supreme Court of Queensland seeking orders banning Hill and Wells from entering the GUSRC office and preventing them from representing themselves as being President and Finance Director respectively, inter alia. As a result of this dramatic step, Leon Bertrand was recognised as the President and the 'faction within a faction' was ousted from the SRC. At the end of the year, a Labor Right/SIFE alliance was elected to the SRC unopposed. Sean Fitzgerald, the Finance Director, was elected President. The growing involvement of SIFE marks the gradual de-politicisation of the SRC. The SRC did not pay its accreditation fees to NUS because a three-year agreement within Student Unity was reneged on, thus denying Queensland a General Secretary of the national union in 2006[3]. Voluntary Student Unionism[edit]The GUSRC was one of the worst prepared student unions in Australia to deal with the onset of Voluntary Student Unionism (VSU). This is for a number of reasons. Firstly, it only received about 25% of the student fees collected by the University as the majority of the monies were given to Campus Life, a University-controlled organisation. Secondly, the GUSRC only owned one shop, the Mt Gravatt campus shop, which consistently made a loss. In 2003, the GUSRC suffered its worst ever budget deficit under the National Broad Left, calculated by SRC auditors in 2004 to be over $226 500. The result was that the SRC owed the University hundreds of thousands of dollars and became 'technically insolvent', since its net liabilities exceeded its net assets. Finally, previous office bearers did not prepare for VSU, even after the 2004 Federal Election, where the Liberal/National government's control of the Australian Senate subsequently made VSU imminent. When Brenton Hill and Anika Wells held themselves out to be President and Finance Director (respectively) of the GUSRC, it was thought that the GUSRC in its present from would dissolve at the end of Semester 1 2006, as their intention had been to wind up the organisation. When they were forced out, their policy was reversed, and the GUSRC was allocated a rent-free space on the Nathan campus. Past Presidents and Finance Directors[edit]

SRISTI (Society for Research and Initiatives for Sustainable Technologies and Institutions)

SRISTI (Society for Research and Initiatives for Sustainable Technologies and Institutions)
Type of Organization Charitable Organisation Founded in 1993 Headquarters Ahemdabad Website www.sristi.org''' SRISTI is a non-governmental organization setup to strengthen the creativity of grassroots inventors, innovators and eco-preneurs engaged in conserving biodiversity and developing eco-friendly solutions to local problems.
CONTENT[edit]• History • Philosophies on Which We Work • The Vision Statement • Our Goals • Activities Performed By Us • Sources History[edit]SRISTI (Society for Research and Initiatives for Sustainable Technologies and Institutions), which means creation in Sanskrit, was born in 1993 as a result of the felt need for an institutional support to the activities of the Honey Bee Network. Based in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, SRISTI is a registered charitable organization under Bombay Public Trust Act, 1950. The organization is also registered under Sec. 80 of Income Tax Act, 1961 and Foreign Contribution Regulation Act, 1976. SRISTI was set up to provide organizational, intellectual and logistics support to the Honey Bee Network. The primary objectives while setting up the organization were: systematically documenting, disseminating and developing grassroots green innovations, providing intellectual property rights protection to grassroots innovators, working on the in situ and ex situ conservation of local biodiversity, and providing venture support to grassroots innovators. SRISTI manages the Honey Bee database of innovations, and supports the publication of the Network's newsletter in three languages, English, Hindi and Gujarati. Lately SRISTI has being focusing on more concerted ways of hitherto neglected domains like women's knowledge systems, value addition through a natural product laboratory, using ICT to establish knowledge network, connecting innovators, traditional knowledge holders with the centers of formal excellence, entrepreneurs etc and innovations in education.
Philosophies on Which We Work[edit]Honey Bee Philosophy Honey Bee signifies a philosophy of discourses, which is fair, authentic and accountable. It advocates people to people learning. The ethics of knowledge extraction, its documentation, dissemination and their abstraction into theories or technologies is the central concern of the Honey Bee Network. Despite all claims about participatory research and action, seldom have we provided opportunity to creative innovators and traditional knowledge holders to do research themselves as well as in partnership or by hiring formal researchers. The institutional scientists have often paid lip service to the cause of collegial partnership with the local communities and people. An evidence of this problem is that almost no research council in developed or developing country requires local knowledge providers in villages to be acknowledged by their name and address. Most institutions do not insist on their prior informed consent, although situation is changing in some of the developed countries but in developing countries, the lack of accountability is almost universal. The issue of local communities and innovators being enabled to hire institutional scientists and fire them, if they don’t deliver is in the realm of speculation. Honey Bee Network, started sixteen years ago tried to reverse this logic. There were four principles, which we learn from the life of honeybee. 1. Just as flowers don’t complain when their nectar or pollen are taken away, people should not complain when their knowledge is documented by outsiders. They should be acknowledged by their name and address and their intellectual property rights should be respected. 2. The bees perform a very important function of cross-pollination thereby enriching diversity and keeping the nature’s cycle on. Unless we communicate in local languages and in a manner that people can understand, people to people linkages will not be established. We should ensure that opportunities for people to people learning are given first priority in any social knowledge exchange. 3. Whenever any wealth is generated by disseminating the knowledge through commercial or non-commercial channel after adding value or without it, a fair share should go back to the people whose knowledge is made that wealth possible. 4. Before disseminating people’s knowledge or bringing it in public domain, their prior informed consent should be taken.
The Vision Statement[edit]A framework for creating an inventive ethic at grassroots level and forging links between excellence in formal and informal Science through Honey Bee Network
Our Goals[edit]SRISTI has set the following goals for itself to promote and celebrate grassroots creativity and traditional knowledge. 1. To expand space in society for building upon sustainable technological, institutional and educational initiatives and innovations at the grassroots with special focus on women's knowledge. 2. To document, analyze and disseminate innovations developed by people themselves. 3. To validate and add value to local innovations through experiments (on farm and on-station) and laboratory research for generating nature-friendly sustainable technologies. 4. To conserve local biodiversity through in-situ and ex-situ gene banks managed by local people. 5. To protect the intellectual property rights of grassroots innovators and to generate incentive models for recognizing, respecting and rewarding grassroots creativity and associated ethical values and norms. 6. To provide venture support to grassroots innovators to scale up products and services based on grassroots innovations through commercial or non-commercial channels. 7. To embed the insights learnt from grassroots innovations in the formal educational system in order to expand the conceptual and cognitive space available to these innovations.
Activities Performed by Us[edit]SRISTI was created to provide institutional support up to the activities of the Honey Bee Network. However, over the last thirteen years, SRISTI has not only intensified the initiatives of the Honey Bee Network, but also has diversified many of its activities. SRISTI, which began with the focus on unearthing grassroots creativity, innovation and traditional knowledge, today is an international player in the field of entrepreneurship promotion, intellectual property rights, knowledge dissemination pertaining to traditional knowledge & creativity, promoting policy favoring innovations and local knowledge, organic farming etc. All throughout these years, SRISTI has focused upon the issue of establishing some sort of synergy between innovations that promote conservation of bio-diversity and other natural resources and the concerns of ethics, excellence, equity and environment. SRISTI has been able to upgrade its standing and legitimacy among the policy makers, intellectuals and grassroots innovators alike and at the root of such wide acceptance lies the activities of the organization. Following are the major activities of the organization. Scouting, Documentation & Dissemination: The activity focuses upon scouting and documenting unique grassroots innovations and traditional practices from various parts the country and sharing the learning from such innovations and practices with the wider audience. Validation and Value Addition: The activities aim at developing the herbal formulations derived from the grassroots practices into viable, user-friendly and marketable products through proper research and development. Policy Analysis & Advocacy: The activities aim at bringing about policy level changes and incorporating more favorable policy regimes for the promotion of grassroots innovations and practices. Campaigning and Awareness Building: The activities focus upon generating awareness and building public opinion about grassroots innovations and traditional practices, organic farming etc. AASTIIK: It aims at creating a virtual and real knowledge community of professionals and experts in the field of invention, innovation and traditional knowledge. The Educational Initiatives: The activities aim at scouting, documenting, encouraging and supporting innovative means of teaching children about the subjects and building awareness about the rich bio-diversity around them. ICT initiatives: The activities focus upon integrating the services of information and communication technology with the concern of building the knowledge network to connect grassroots innovators and traditional practitioners across the boundary of region, language and culture.

The Whip Jacks
[edit]
|
|---|
The Whip Jacks have a very characteristical style, combining old school punk-rock along with some melodic punk and a bit of hardcore punk. Some songs also have clear ska influences. Their music has young and fresh lyrics, revitalizing and absurd/abstract in some cases, combined with intelligent critics towards society and injustice. The name of the band came when Greg Gon and Jaime decided to randomly search the dictionary and came with "whip jack", a beggar which wanted to resemble a poor sailor. They started to play on their free time and between classes at school, and became more talented and made new songs as time passed by. Their most famous songs at the moment are "Wasted Joe", "Rib Diggers", "Pansy Asshole Chokers", "The Drug-Queens", "Winnie the Poo=Weiner the Shit", "Zonky", "Willy Dickenson Cockfield" and "Uncle Tom", from their fist demo album, which soon was recorded by an important production company at the studio and sold as a proper album. The Whip Jacks started to play covers from Bad Religion, Social Distortion and The Offspring at the local joints but soon their talent spoke for themselves and they were allowed to play in better places and their own songs. Nowadays, the band continues to play and is working on a new album... ¡Their musical career has just started and is raising non-stop towards the best punk rock bands ever!

[edit]

To resolve an empty link I provide the following: Nashwaaksis No longer a separate municipality, Nashwaaksis was located north of Fredericton on the north bank of the St. John River, west of St. Mary's First Nation Reserve. The north side of the Westmorland Street Bridge will bring you into the area known as Nashwaaksis. Nashwaaksis was formerly within the Municipality of Restigouche, in the Parish of Dalhousie. Today it is part of Fredericton. Sources[edit]http://www.foundlocally.com/Fredericton/Home/Neigh-Nashwaaksis.htm 74.105.10.51 19:11, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

The Ottoman Empire on Tribal Wars
[edit]
|
|---|
The Ottoman Empire began when the great Sahim was forced in to exile after losing in the great war of tribes against Sir Morgan Black, the leader of the Knights Rebelion. The great Turkish leader had lost at the battle near the sea. So, knowing he had failed, fled to his ship. But the Knights were hot on his tail and chased him to a nearby army. Here he lost himself in the woods. The knights only left when they had fully decided he was dead, but he was not. He managed to gather some supplies left from his bomareded ship. Then he wandered in to the woodlands. * * * * * * After the years had passed, the leader had met some woodland people and built a strong firm tribe. He called this the ottoman tribe. They thrived for many years. What food they could not hunt the wood would supply them. But soon Sahim's days were over and he left the world for a better place. But on his deathbed he handed the tribe over to his friend, Ll cool j778. Now Ll cool j778 is gathering up the ottoman army, to defeat the ottmen's one sworn enemy, Sir Morgan Black.

While in school, LG studied under such famed artists as Ken Fergeson, Dale Eldred, Wally Hedrick, Robert Arneson, David Hollowell, Seymour Howard, and Wayne Thiebaud. As one might expect Beat Generation, Funk Art, Pop Art and Conceptual Art has strongly informed and supported his own renegade artistic temperament. Williams has since taught at universities and colleges across the United States such as University of California, Davis, University of Southern California, California College of Art, and University of Hawaii. Williams lives in Los Angeles and in Honolulu. Artwork[edit]Williams artwork has been exhibited in such galleries as Lance Fung Gallery (NY), the Stephen Wirtz Gallery (SF) and California Fine Arts (LA); while appearing in many permanent collections, for example, Museum of Modern Art, Whitney Museum and San Francisco Museum of Art, and di Rosa Art Preserve. Williams’s artwork, reviews and commentary have appeared in the Village Voice, Los Angeles Times, Honolulu Bulletin, Artforum and other periodicals. On July 17, 1999 Kenneth Baker wrote in the San Francisco Chronicle, “Williams wants to hold open a space in which painting might resume in earnest.” [10] References[edit]
