Pat O'Hara took pride in her role in forming the Queensland Association of Gay Law Reform (QAGLR) with Ted Kelk. Initially they published Queensland Gay Action News and lobbied Brisbane politicians from Cairns, but when Ted moved to Brisbane because of his health, and then the Brisbane branch of QAGLR took over the lobbying activities, Pat kept the home fires burning. A lifelong activist, in 1975 Pat, along with three other local feminists, formed the Women’s Electoral Lobby (WEL). Aspiring to

The starfish outbreaks seem to travel southward down the reef with the two primary outbreaks reported in the last 40 years both beginning around Green Island and ending between Cairns and Townsville. The cause of these outbreaks is still unknown. They may be natural phenomena occurring throughout history, or they may be caused by human influences. The most effective control method currently is the injecting of sodium bisulfate
Anglican Church founded by John Wesley, an educated, articulate theologian and pastor who focused at least as much on the heart as on the head. Born in 1703, John Wesley was the “fifteenth of nineteen children born to Samuel and Susanah Wesley,” (Cairns 382). His father was the pastor of a small church called Epworth. His parishioners, to say the least, did not care for him. Bruce Heydt says that “their worldly ways and fierce independence left little room in their hearts for a curate who took his
subsidiary in order to help the expansion of Jetstar on “low-yielding routes”. The government’s efforts to promote international trade and investment as well as Qantas’s new enterprise agreements with Australian flight attendants will allow Jetstar’s “Cairns-based subsidiary to use new aircrafts, hire foreign crews and fly further”.

From the moment he entered power and his reign began he had greedy intentions and enormous ideas of divine rule (Cairns 112).

William Marley grew up in London. The celebrated writer and social campaigner Charles Dickens often visited William's father, a renowned and wealthy doctor with a shared interest in child welfare. Dickens loved unusual names and decorated his stories with them. At a party at the Marley home in 1843, he promised to make his host's then uncommon surname a household word. In 'A Christmas Carol', published December 19, he named the main protagonist in the story for his friend. By New Years Eve, the

The totemic piles of rocks, however, are commonly known as cairns, a primitive technology used commonly as trail markers to communicate among hikers. Bundles of sticks are also used in BWP as a package to contain blood, human’s teeth, and a tongue (Myrick 64.30), albeit another direct communication technology. Also

This journal explains the meaning of the cairn, the house, and the statue of Adam from Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. The cairn represents a big part of the children’s lives and protects them from creatures of every kind. Miss
demonstrate why, when compared with Flanagan’s assimilationist proposal, Cairns’ concept of “citizen plus” is more persuasive as an effective approach to aboriginal policy. Firstly, I would outline the debate between Thomas Flanagan and Alan Cairns on aboriginal policy. A brief compare and contrast between their opinions will be made. Secondly, with some other academic sources in my mind, I would state the reasons why I stand aside with Cairns more than with Flanagan. Some advisable

A 2012 management research article published in Problems of Management in the 21st Century provides the foundation for understanding the positive correlation between organizational culture (including schedule options) and employee motivation and performance (Sokro). The findings establish the crucial role organizational culture plays in employee motivation, calling motivation “the key component of organizational culture” (p. 106). The article defines organizational culture as “the set of beliefs
Geographical Context: Beacon Hill is a neighbourhood on the east side of Ottawa, and formerly a part of the City of Gloucester. It is bounded on the east by the Greenbelt and on the south by Highway 174. Its two parts, Beacon Hill North and South, are separated by Montreal Road.

For example, if the land use

Childhood aggression reliably predicts aggressive behaviour in adolescence (Cairns et al, 1989) and has emerged as the strongest risk factor for delinquency, crime and substance abuse during adolescence and adulthood (Patterson et al, 1991). If research can shed light on the causes and moderators of childhood aggression it may be

Cairns questions whether or not Plato’s Republic seeks to explain what is good for individual humans, or rather, on some quasi-moral good. Moreover, Cairns discusses the very Form of the Good, although he admits this pursuit

Andy Goldsworthy, (1956--) is a British sculptor, photographer and moreover can be described as an environmental artist. He creates his work with no preconceived notion of what each creation will be. Instead, he relies on the environment for inspiration. His work becomes a document of the energy where he records a place in time and his experiment through exploration a transient addition to the surroundings. He is dependent on the weather and seasons as further inspiration. Goldsworthy is also sensitive
