Stewardship, Accounting And Management, Kathryn Lancaster

Previous chapters have described the vast array of resources that Cal Poly’s officials oversee. As students, educators and others in the surrounding community continue to use Cal Poly Land and surrounding areas, the ecological system and its capacity to recover become strained. In order to ensure that in 100 years students (and other Cal Poly stakeholders) will be able to have the same opportunities to benefit from the land resources, Cal Poly’s stakeholders need to develop the mind-set and tools to help us maintain and enhance these resources. This section describes several approaches available to help us.

Women consulted a variety of healthcare providers in their pursuit …

Botrytis In Wine Grapes In Western Australia, Diana Fisher, Colin Gordon, Peter Wood

Bulletins 4000 -

Botrytis, causal agent Botrytis cinerea, is a fungal disease of grapevines that is commonly referred to as Botrytis bunch rot or grey mould. Botrytis is most prevalent where warm, wet conditions are frequent, but symptoms can occur in cool, wet weather and high humidity. All grape varieties are susceptible. Varieties most at risk are those with berries that are thin-skinned and/or have tight bunches.

Bulletins 4000 -

The effect of Quartermate pre-milking teat sanitation on milk quality was investigated in twelve dairy herds over a period of eight weeks. Pre-milking teat sanitation was carried out on all cows for six weeks on each of six farms and mesophile and thermophile bacteria counts of raw milks were compared before the milk line (“cluster” samples), and at various points within milking plants. Rates of mastitis, vat milk iodide levels and specific bacteria were also monitored.

From Common Market To European Union: The New Europe's Place In The Trading World, Mogens Peter Carl

Fordham International Law Journal

What are the philosophical, political, legal and institutional bases for Europe's economic relations with the rest of the world? How have they developed over time, as Europe has moved from the narrow, sectoral basis of the recently defunct European Coal and Steel Community (“ECSC”), to the radical innovation of the European Economic Community (“EEC”), which itself has become part of the wider, politically even more ambitious integrationist structure of the European Union (“EU”), now itself on the verge of a radical expansion of its size? Does today's EU have as much or less in common with the ECSC as a …

Bringing Ireland Up To Par: Incorporating The European Convention For The Protection Of Human Rights And Fundamental Freedoms, Katherine Lesch Bodnick

Fordham International Law Journal

In the Good Friday Agreement of 1998, the Irish government committed to incorporating the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (“ECHR”) into Ireland's domestic law. Ireland's promise to promote human rights is consistent with the Good Friday Agreement. Although the government agreed to incorporate the ECHR by October 1999, it has yet to be incorporated because Attorney-General Michael McDowell and Minister of Justice John O'Donoghue could not decide how to do so. This Note examines the manner in which Ireland should incorporate the ECHR into Irish domestic law. Part I of this Note discusses background …

Rights And Reasons: Challenges For Truth Recovery In South Africa And Northern Ireland, Brandon Hamber

Fordham International Law Journal

This Essay will argue that any transitional mechanism must be by its nature and temporal historical location a politically contested instrument. This can have differing political and social impacts, and impact on the human rights culture in the society in question. Based on the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission ("TRC") experience, two rights-based issues -- namely, human rights and victims' rights -- will be discussed.

Local Meets Global: Transitional Justice In Northern Ireland, Colm Campbell, Fionnuala Ní Aoláin

Fordham International Law Journal

Part I of the Essay assesses the current state of global transitional discourses in light of the critique of current developments offered by Ruti Teitel, William Schabas, Brandon Hamber, Kathleen Cavanaugh and others. This is followed in Part II by an examination of the distinctiveness of the broad contours of the Northern Ireland transition, setting the scene for an exploration of more discrete themes affecting the region: the problem of the past (Part III); and the dynamics of institutional change (Part IV). Part V offers some conclusions.

This Article "audits" Northern Ireland's discrete mechanisms for dealing with the past, with a view to exploring the wider transitional justice debates. An assessment of what has been done so far is vital to considering what the goals of addressing the past might be, what future developments are useful or required, and what kind of mechanisms might successfully be employed in achieving those goals.
