Joseph Buttigieg: A Portrait of the Critic in Different Perspective
No full textJoseph Buttigieg’s A Portrait of the Artist in Different Perspective aims at providing a critical reconsideration of Joyce’s work. Focusing on A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, it contributes to a radical revision of the central tenets of modernism as first established by T.S. Eliot’s conservative reading in the 1920s and reiterated by the New Critics in the 1950s. Buttigieg’s critical effort seeks to prevent Joyce’s work from being locked up in a literary museum, drawing on a dialectical and highly perceptive ability to unmask Western metaphysics and aesthetics as ideologies within which conservative criticism had framed Joyce’s Bildungsroman. Furthermore, his Maltese, English, Catholic roots made Buttigieg capable of identifying and demystifying high modernism’s irony and disinterestedness as instruments of the “higher” values on which the entire Irish social system was based. Together with Seamus Deane and Declan Kiberd, Buttigieg was among the very first critics who realized the relevance of Portrait as an Irish national indictment against colonization because–as Deane maintains– it is the first novel to examine the distorted relationship between the Irish community and oppression and to focus on this oppression’s ultimate resource–cooperation with the oppressed. This Joycean experience informed Buttigieg’s study of Gramsci’s method and its application in various fields of the social sciences, a heritage that has influenced scholarship throughout the world

No full textMayor Pete Buttigieg is the chief executive of the City of South Bend. The city’s thirty-second mayor, he was sworn into office on January 1, 2012. As mayor, Buttigieg is responsible for the city workforce of over 1,000 employees and an annual budget over $380 million. Buttigieg was born in South Bend and grew up in the Northwest Side and North Shore Triangle neighborhoods. He attended St. Joseph High School in South Bend.
During his first term, Buttigieg introduced the 1000 in 1000 Days initiative, which demolished or repaired abandoned homes throughout South Bend. During his second term he constructed safer, more appealing “Smart Streets” as part of downtown placemaking, and in 2017 announced the largest investment to parks and trails in the city’s history. Buttigieg has increased transparency through an open data portal, increased performance through data-based decision-making, and empowered local businesses through community investment.
Elected at the age of 29, Buttigieg has been profiled by the New York Times and was called “the most interesting mayor you’ve never heard of” by the Washington Post. An officer in U.S. Navy Reserve from 2009-17, Buttigieg took a leave of absence to serve in Afghanistan during a seven-month deployment in 2014, earning the Joint Service Commendation Medal for his counterterrorism work

A 10 year review of the number of bovine dairy holdings and the dairy bovine population on the Maltese Islands
No full textThe process of identification and registration of bovines and bovine holdings on the Maltese Islands has been computerised since 2002, with the introduction of the National Livestock Database of Malta. This is a computerised and centralised system which has made collection, management and analysis of data possible. The aims of this paper were to study in detail ten year trends in the number of bovine dairy holdings together with the bovine population on these holdings and to compare these trends with those reported in other European countries. Six trends related to the number of bovine dairy holdings and their bovine population were analysed in the study. The general trends showed that there was a significant decrease in the number of dairy holdings, in the bovine population and in the number of female bovines greater than 2 years of age during the study period. The average herd size and the average number of females greater than 2 years of age on the dairy holdings showed no statistically significant changes. On the other hand, a significant increase in the ratio of female to male bovines was registered on these holdings.peer-reviewe
An Appraisal of the Maltese National Livestock Database with regard to Bovines
No full textThe creation of a centralised national livestock database for the islands of Malta and Gozo is of crucial importance for the identification and traceability of bovines. It is also important for compliance with the legal obligations that followed Malta's accession to the European Union in May 2004. This paper describes how the processes of identification, registration and traceability of bovines have changed since Malta's accession. The validation and integration of data originating from different departmental sections (such as the identification and registration section), the slaughterhouse and the National Veterinary Laboratory, ensures that any discrepancies are highlighted and can be investigated. Events recorded in the database enable the compliance and eligibility of bovine producers to be cross-checked when applications for European Union benefits are made. The main drawbacks and weak points of the system include financial costs for the government department, potentially late not..
