Walking and chewing gum at the same time: Australia’s free trade area strategy
Get PDFThe pursuit of free trade area agreements (FTAs), according to some, does not impede the multilateral trade negotiations process. It is argued to the contrary in the present paper that the FTA approach does impede the multilateral one. Comments are offered on common approaches to the analysis of the impact of FTAs, on the reasons why, despite concerns evident in these comments, the FTA strategy has become so popular, and on ways out of a dilemma of FTA proliferation, or at least ways to avoid the risks associated with it.International Relations/Trade,
Ligand binding characteristics of homologous rat and mouse urinary proteins and pyrazine-binding protein of calf.
No full text1. The binding affinities of three classes of homologous proteins, alpha 2u protein from rat urine, major urinary protein of mouse and pyrazine-binding protein of calf nasal mucosa have been determined for a panel of ligands. 2. Best ligands were low threshold odorants for man, but chemically unrelated. 3. The binding spectra of the homologous proteins were different

Investigation of the effects of hydrofoil set-up on the performance of an international moth dinghy using a dynamic VPP
No full textThe International Moth dinghy is a 3.355m long single handed, una-rigged monohull dinghy. The class rules allow the use of hydrofoil that in certain wind conditions can significantly reduce resistance. A new velocity prediction program (VPP) has been developed to evaluate the impact of hydrofoil design and set-up on the performance of a Moth dinghy by simulating racing on a windward - leeward course. The VPP generates polar diagrams indicating the speed of the craft in a range of true wind strengths and angles. Sail force and windage are modelled using aerofoil theory. The drag model includes hull skin friction and residuary resistance, profile and induced drag for every foil, wavemaking drag of the lifting foils and spray drag of the surface piercing foils. Using an iterative process the VPP determines the boat speed that balances resistive forces with drive force, heeling moment and righting moment and vertical lift forces with weight. A series of case studies demonstrate the use of the VPP by examining the effects of changing the span of the forward foil, adding end plates, and using different foil geometries on performance
The role of practical work in the developing practice of beginning physics teachers
No full textThe role and rationale of practical work in teaching school science are receiving renewed scrutiny (Abrahams and Saglam, 2010). This paper is a case study which reports part of a larger longitudinal study which used semi-structured interviews to explore the approaches of beginning teachers of physics to teaching electricity during Initial Teacher Education (ITE) and beyond. The interview transcripts were analysed using thematic analysis. One of the emergent themes was the use of practical work in secondary school science. All of the beginning teachers had embedded the use of practical work in their teaching. This paper discusses their reasons for doing so and compares their responses with the rationales suggested by Hodson (1993), Lunetta, Hofstein, Clough, Abell, & Leerman (2007) and Abrahams (2011). The implications for ITE and continuing professional development (CPD) are discussed
Employer and labour provider perspectives on Eastern European migration to the UK
No full textIn a relatively short space of time Eastern Europe has become one of the principal source regions of migrants to the UK and citizens from these states now constitute some of the largest foreign-born populations in the country. This paper focuses on these trends from the perspective of UK employers and labour providers. Three main topics are covered; 1. The function served by East European migrant labour in the UK labour market and how this has changed over time. 2. Employers’ motivations for engaging with East European migrant labour. 3. The migration channels that shape how East European labour is sourced by UK employers. The findings demonstrate how the perspectives and practices of employers and recruiters can play an important role in influencing how East European labour migration flows to the UK are represented and produced
