No full textArchdeacon Henry Brune Atkinson (1874-1960), clergyman and orchidologist, was the son of Rev. Henry D. Atkinson of Stanley and Sarah Ann (Ward). He was educated at Stanley State School, Launceston Church Grammar School and the University of Tasmania (BA 1899). He was ordained an Anglican priest in 1902 and served as Rector of Holy Trinity Church, Hobart and Archdeacon of Launceston and Darwin. From 1919 to 1925 he was Vice-Warden of the University Senate. He collected many specimens of orchid from Tasmania and some from NSW, Victoria and New Zealand. These were given to the Queen Victoria Museum, Launceston by his daughter. Rev. Atkinson married Helen Bertha Knight of Christ Church, New Zealand, in 1905 and they had one daughter, Sheila.
These papers consist of his notes and sketches of orchids and letters, notes and articles received from other orchidologists: James Hamlyn Willis (1910-), Government Botanist Melbourne Botanic Gardens and editor of Victorian Naturalist, William Henry Nicholls (1885-1951) orchidologist of Victoria whose Orchids of Australia was published posthumously, and Rev.

Faster Customs, Faster Trade: Using Technology for Trade Facilitation
No full textContribution by Craig Atkinson to the International Trade Centre report
This report offers policy advice to explore synergies between the WTO Trade Facilitation and Information Technology Agreements. These agreements reinforce each other, and can boost trade. Used well, policymakers can set in motion technology-based national trade facilitation reforms, especially for customs processes.
ITC produced this report in cooperation with Huawei Technologies. It encourages the use of ICT tools and schemes such as the Authorized Economic Operator. These reduce costs and time for small firms, and help them be competitive in regional and global markets

The Atkinson Inequality Measure and Inequality Aversion
No full textThis paper examines the precise way in which the Atkinson inequality measures varies as inequality aversion increases. The aim is to investigate whether precise conditions can be obtained under which a tax reform might be judged to be inequality reducing for one range of aversion parameters, and inequality increasing for another range. A number of elasticities, with respect to inequality aversion, are derived and shown to have convenient interpretations. Specific conditions cannot be produced because the Atkinson measure can take the same value for a range of alternative distributions. Nevertheless, intersecting profiles of Atkinson measures plotted against inequality aversion can arise without the need for pathological assumptions about changes in the income distribution. The analysis shows the need to consider a range of aversion parameters when examining changes to the tax and transfer system. By considering only one or two values, it could be concluded incorrectly that a tax reform is progressive, when a higher degree of inequality aversion would judge a change to be regressive

A Touch of Paint: Transgressing Unspoken Boundaries
No full text<p>Contemporary early childhood contexts are rife with unspoken rules, boundaries, and expectations that are understood to be best practice within discourses of quality in early years settings. These habitual practices are not apolitical: They flow from powerful discourses purporting to be scientific and reliable, with systematically defined ways of thinking, seeing, and speaking about children. Drawing on a body/paint/brush/forest encounter, the author looks to disrupt these discourses and transgress unspoken boundaries. By engaging with an ethic of resistance, acknowledging the relationality of early childhood practice and the entanglements of human and nonhuman forces, the author seeks to transgress fixed identities and be open to otherness in an ongoing process of becoming.</p></jats:p
