Paul Grundy (engineer)

Paul Grundy (12 May 1935 – 6 January 2013Department of Civil Engineering at Monash University.

Education, qualifications and career

Paul Grundy began studying engineering at the University of Melbourne in 1953 following his father, who was also an engineer.University of Cambridge in 1961. He worked for a short time in the industry, taking up positions at Civil & Civic Pty Ltd and Hardcastle & Richards Pty Ltd, Consulting Engineer. In January 1966 he joined the Department of Civil Engineering at Monash University where he was variously lecturer, 1966–1968; Senior Lecturer, 1969–1976; Associate Professor, 1977–1993; Head, Department of Civil Engineering, 1996–1998; and Professor, Chair of Structural Engineering, Monash University, 1994–2000; a position he held until retirement in December 2000.

His research focussed on many problems in engineering with a persistent interest in the lifetime performance of structures in hostile environments under dynamic and repeated loading ... [including] research into load spectrums, fatigue and fracture, incremental collapse, risk assessment and life extension applied to cranes, bridges, ships (bulk carriers) and offshore structures with wrought iron, steel, concrete, composite and FRP materials. He was engaged on many occasions to advise on the West Gate Bridge from after the tragic collapse in 1970 to the upgrade in 2010–12.

In his work at Monash he helped to launch the Off-shore Engineering Program and established the national group ACADS (the Association for Computer Aided Design) in 1972 to help professionals develop computing skills and set standards for software in engineering applications.

He was also involved in development of a software package BRAWIM for detailed modelling of load effects on highway bridges derived from weigh-in-motion data, which was used to assist in establishing fatigue loading rules for the Austroads Bridge Design Code AS5100.

When the Menangle railway bridge was closed due to structural concerns, amidst a heated political debate and election campaign, Grundy undertook a structural analysis which proved the bridge to be sound.

Professional associations and awards

Grundy was twice awarded the W R Chapman Medal. (1986 and 1994)


Paul Grundy (engineer)

He was an Emeritus Member of the College of Structural Engineers, Australia, Honorary Associate of the International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering (IABSE) and a Life Member of Clare Hall, Cambridge. In 2008 he was made a Member of the Order of Australia for services to engineering.Anton Tedesko Medal from the International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering (IABSE).National Trust (Victoria) Industrial Heritage Committee on Bridges.

Other positions included:

  * Chairman, International Association of Bridge and Structural Engineers (IABSE), Australian Group, since 1999;
  * IABSE (international) Outstanding Paper Award Committee, 2006,
  * Outstanding Structure Award Committee, 2001–2007;
  * Working Commission on Sustainability; Honorary Member, 2006.
  * President's Task Force on Sustainability, Engineers Australia, 2004;
  * Structural College and Risk Engineering Group;
  * Emeritus Member, College of Structural Engineers, 2003.
  * Chairman, Joint Working Commission, Disaster Reduction on the Coasts of the Indian Ocean, 2005–2007 (following the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami); resulting in A Guide for Disaster Reduction on the Coasts of the Indian Ocean.
  * Technical Committee, International Society of Off-shore and Polar Engineers, 1993–2003.

Retirement career

Following retirement, Grundy used his reputation and technical knowledge to assist with and to disseminate information about disaster mitigation and relief in developing countries. This initiative was prompted by the disastrous Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami of 26 December 2004 after which he helped form the 'Joint Working Commission for Disaster Reduction on Coasts' at the IABSE Conference New Delhi in February 2005, to develop and implement a Guide for Disaster Reduction on the Coasts of the Indian Ocean, now expanded to encompass disasters globally.

In late 2012 Grundy was diagnosed with a brain tumor which proved to be inoperable. He died on 6 January 2013. His funeral service was held at St Thomas the Apostle Church, Blackburn and he was buried at Lilydale Memorial Park on Friday 11 January 2013.

2021–22 Belgian First Division B

The 2021–22 season of the Belgian First Division B began in August 2021 and ended in April 2022, with Westerlo winning the title by a considerable margin over RWDM, the latter losing the promotion play-off and hence not promoted together with Westerlo. Virton ended in last place and would have been relegated, were it not for the fact that after the season Excel Mouscron was not awarded a licence, causing them to be relegated instead.

Team changes

In

  * Royal Excel Mouscron were directly relegated from the 2020–21 Belgian First Division A after finishing last.
  * Waasland-Beveren were also relegated from the 2020–21 Belgian First Division A, after losing the promotion/relegation play-offs against Seraing.
  * Virton, who were denied both a professional and remunerated license at the end of the 2019–20 season and forced to relegate two levels as a result, successfully appealed this decision and were forced to be reinstated at this level.

Out

  * Union SG were promoted from the 2020–21 Belgian First Division B as champions.
  * Seraing were promoted to the 2021–22 Belgian First Division A after winning the promotion/relegation play-offs against Waasland-Beveren.
  * Club NXT was removed as it was decided no longer to include U23 teams for the 2021–22 season.

Format changes

Initially, the plan was to change the format of the Belgian First Division B only for the 2020–21 season,

The Private Sponsorship of Refugees Program (PSR) is a Canadian government initiative that allows for refugees to resettle in Canada with support and funding from private or joint government-private sponsorship.Blended Visa Office-Referred (BVOR) program, which connects private sponsors with pre-screened and pre-interviewed refugees.

The PSR program is part of the larger Global Refugee Sponsorship Initiative (GRSI), launched in Ottawa in December 2016, led by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), Open Society Foundations, the Giustra Foundation, and the University of Ottawa.

Established in 1978 under Operation Lifeline,Commonwealth countries as well, such as the UK and Australia.

Sponsorship

A sponsorship group must support their privately sponsored refugee for one year upon their arrive or until the PSR can support themselves, whichever comes first.

Sponsors must meet the criteria for sponsorship, which includes being able to provide social and emotional support, as well as residential and financial support, food, and clothing.social welfare benefits if their sponsor has not been successful in helping them find employment.

People can choose to sponsor a specific refugee or refugee family, so long as they are eligible under the PSR program. If one chooses to sponsor a refugee they personally know, the processing time may take longer than the regular process and the Government of Canada will not provide financial assistance.

Types of private sponsorships

There are three types of private sponsors in Canada, which can be applied for directly through the Government of Canada or through Lifeline Syria:


Private Sponsorship of Refugees Program

1. Sponsorship Agreement Holders (SAHs): incorporated organisations that have formal agreements with the government to support a refugee family for 12 months.
      + Constituent Groups: groups who work with SAHs to sponsor refugees under the SAH’s agreement.
      + Co-sponsors: an individual or another organization who shares the responsibility with the SAH to support the sponsored refugee(s).
 2. Groups of Five: groups consisting of a minimum of five Canadian citizens or permanent residents over the age of 18 who sponsor those recognized as refugees by either the UNHCR or a foreign state.
 3. Community sponsors: organisations, associations, or corporations in the community that sponsor refugees.

Blended Visa Office-Referred program

The Government of Canada's Blended Visa Office-Referred (BVOR) program connects sponsors with pre-screened and -interviewed refugees, and reduces the financial burden on private sponsors.

Prioritizing the most vulnerable refugees, the program partners with refugee referral organizations, such as the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR), who identify refugees for resettlement through screening procedures that include both security and medical checks.

Of all refugees resettled in 2018, a total of 1,157 were admitted under the BVOR Program.

Quebec

The Province of Quebec—through its Minister of International Relations and La Francophonie and Minister of Immigration, Francisation and Integration—has its own process for refugee sponsorship,

Collective sponsorships fall under the following categories:

  * Experienced organizations "that only sponsor individuals who must settle outside the Montréal Metropolitan Community"
  * Other experienced organizations
  * Regular organizations "that only sponsor individuals who must settle outside the Montréal Metropolitan Community"
  * Other regular organizations
  * Groups of two to five individuals

On 27 January 2017, Quebec froze the intake of new private sponsorship applications until August 2018 due to the high number of applications already in the system,


Private Sponsorship of Refugees Program

On 28 October 2020, Minister Nadine Girault issued a decision in the ministerial order published in the Gazette officielle du Québec (No. 44), announcing that the intake of 'undertaking applications' submitted by organizations of all categories would be suspended until 1 November 2021. Groups of two to five individuals, however, would be allowed to submit applications from 6 April 2021 to 5 May 2021. Among the eligible applications submitted, a maximum of 750 applications would be received by the Minister, "randomly drawn under the supervision of an outside auditor and in the presence of witnesses."

Special programs

The Joint Assistance Sponsorship (JAS) Program, which is only available for SAHs and their Constituent Groups, helps groups sponsor refugees with special needs. Through this program, the Government of Canada provides financial assistance for sponsors, who must support refugees for up to 24 months.

The Rainbow Refugees Assistance Partnership was announced in June 2019 by the Government of Canada, officially launching in 2020. The five-year partnership would assist private sponsors with the sponsorship of 50 LGBTI refugees per year.

Response

Domestic response

The program has maintained popularity and public support despite portrayals by some of refugees as 'queue jumpers.'job market.

It is argued that private sponsorship is not a substitute for government sponsorship, but should be an addition in order to increase protection space—which will soon be the case in both Canada and the UK.prima facie refugee status (rather than individual determination) has made the process easier and faster in some regions, but far longer for private sponsorship of non-Syrian refugees.

International response

Until recently, Canada was the only country to offer private refugee sponsorship. Since the launch of the Global Refugee Sponsorship Initiative, Canada has worked closely with six countries that have introduced or are piloting refugee sponsorship programs: United Kingdom (Community Sponsorship), Argentina, Ireland, Germany, Spain, and New Zealand.

The UK relaunched its sponsorship scheme in 2020, now counting all refugees in addition to those being resettled via different routes. The UK has also worked towards deepening its community sponsorship scheme, with £1 million being provided between 2017 and 2019 to train groups signing up to sponsorship.


Private Sponsorship of Refugees Program

For Australia, the senior staff of Settlement Services International (SSI) and Refugee Council of Australia (RCOA) met in Canada and Geneva in June 2017 to discuss the possibilities of adapting a private sponsorship scheme similar to that of Canada.Community Refugee Sponsorship Initiative (CRSI) is a joint project of RCOA, Amnesty International Australia, Save the Children Australia, Welcome to Australia, Rural Australians for Refugees and the Australian Churches Refugee Taskforce.

In the Netherlands, Dutch human rights organization Justice and Peace Netherlands started a community sponsorship model called Samen Hier, inspired by the Canadian model though without its financial component.

In New Zealand, a pilot of 25 Community Organisations Refugee Sponsorship (CORS) places was approved as part of the government's response to the 2015 crisis.Alison Mau described the extension of the pilot as, politically "2019's most obvious no-brainer."


Priority (fencing)

Priority or right of way is the decision criterion used in foil and sabre fencing to determine which fencer receives the touch, or point, when both fencers land a hit within the same short time-frame (less than 1 second). After this window, if one fencer had already landed a hit, the electrical scoring apparatus would "lock-out," or fail to record, an opponent's subsequent hit, and thus the one fencer to land a hit is awarded the touch. In épée fencing, if both fencers land valid hits at the same time, they each receive a point. Because of this, foil and saber are considered conventional weapons. After a halt, a referee parses what happened into actions, from which it can be determined whether to award a point or not.

Offensive Actions

Offensive actions

  * Attack - An attempt to hit when the opponent is not already attacking.
Main article: Attack (fencing)
  * Riposte - An attempt to hit the opponent after a successful parry
      + Counter-Riposte - An attempt to hit the opponent after a riposte was successfully parried
Main article: Riposte

Counter-attacks

  * Counter Attack - An attempt to hit when the opponent is already attacking.

Other Offensive Actions

  * Redouble/Remise/Reprise - A second attempt to hit after a previous attempt missed or was parried
      + Redouble - an attempt to hit which follows the original attack
      + Remise - an attempt to hit which follows the original attack, without withdrawing the arm,
      + Reprise - a new attack executed immediately after a return to the on-guard position.
Main article: Remise (fencing)

Defensive Actions

Main article: Parry (fencing)

The parry is the defensive action made with the weapon to prevent an offensive action arriving.

Point in line

The point in line position is a specific position in which the fencer's sword arm is kept straight and the point of his weapon continually threatens his opponent's valid target, which gains right-of-way.

Attacks on the blade

Main article: Prise de Fer


Priority (fencing)

Main article: Prise de Fer

A fencer can 'beat' their opponent's blade as a preparation to make an offensive action (as opposed to hitting their blade as a parry to defend against an opponent's action).

Action Priority

  * An attack has priority over a counter-attack
  * A riposte has priority over a redouble/remise/reprise
  * An attack made with a beat has priority over an attack made without a beat
  * If both fencers make an attack at the same time then neither action has priority and it is considered simultaneous
  * A point in line has priority over an offensive action if it was in place before that action started

Interpretation of Priority

Despite the simplicity of the underlying principles, priority rules are somewhat convoluted, and their interpretation is a source of much acrimony. Much of this acrimony is centered on the definition of attack. According to the FIE rules, an attack is defined as "the initial offensive action made by extending the arm and continuously threatening the opponent's target...". This is explained in the USFA Fencing Officials Commission FAQ: Initial refers to which fencer starts the action before their opponent does. Offensive indicates moving towards the opponent. Extending indicates that the weapon arm is moving away from the body - right of way does not require a fully extended arm. Continuously indicates that there is no "break" in the attack in which the attacker stops moving forward or holds back their arm. Threatening indicates that the attacker is in advance-lunge distance and close enough to hit, and their weapon's point (for foil) or blade (for sabre) are approaching the opponent's valid target.


Priority (fencing)

The general consensus is that a useful guide is for the referee to look for which fencer's arm starts straightening first. In practice, referees, especially inexperienced ones, may go for the easy option and give priority to whichever fencer happened to be moving forwards. This is technically wrong, but it is far from unusual. There is also a school of thought, subscribed to by a relatively small minority, that priority should be given to the fencer who was the first to straighten their arm fully. This, again, is out of line with the current rules. The adherents argue that this is the more classical way of doing things, but this claim is dubious, as actual practice decades ago based right of way on which fencer started straightening the arm (not which fencer completed the extension); and the reworded rules conform better to actual, traditional practice which was documented in some older editions of the rules.

For example, the 1957 Amateur Fencers League of America (AFLA) rules says

The rules do not require that the attack be made with a fully extended arm; in fact, there are outstanding international champions in foil and sabre who attack without extending the arm fully. However, in all cases, the attacker must clearly take the initiative in combat by threatening the defender's target with a forward movement of the weapon, whether by extension of the arm or a movement of the body or a combination of both. The classical schools of fencing recommend the extension of the arm on the attack because this method simplifies the task of the President of the Jury in many situations, as for example in the case of attacks which deceive the parry (see § 11 below).

An attack which has failed (i.e. has missed or been parried) is no longer an attack. Priority does not automatically pass to the defending fencer, and at the moment an attack is over, neither fencer has priority. Instead, priority is gained by a fencer making an offensive action, as is always the case. If the attack was parried, the defender has the right to make a riposte, but it must be initiated without indecision or delay. Alternatively, they may initiate their own attack if the initial attack missed. The fencer making the original attack may also make a new offensive action, a renewal of the initial attack. If the attacker immediately continues their attack in the same line, it is called a remise.


Priority (fencing)

A parry is a defensive action made with the weapon to prevent an offensive action from landing. In practice, even a light blade contact is often sufficient to prevent an attack from landing, so long as it is not a "mere grazing of the blades" (as expressed in the rules). Therefore, it is not necessary for a parry to "close the line" (an "opposition parry"), though that may be used for tactical purposes. Consequently, foilists often parry with a sharp beating motion which does not necessarily end in a guard position that closes a line. In sabre, according to the FIE rules, "the parry is properly carried out when, before the completion of the attack, it prevents the arrival of that attack by closing the line in which that attack is to finish". In practice, sabre referees tend to look at the point of blade contact: contact of a defender's forte with an attacker's foible is generally counted as a parry, whereas contact of a defender's foible with an attacker's forte is incorrectly executed, and priority stays with the attacker. Some fencers refer to a retreat that makes an attack fall short as a "distance parry", but this is informal use: an actual parry requires blade contact.

Paul Grimes (criminal)

Paul Grimes (born 26 May 1950) is an English former gangster who, from an early age, was active in Liverpool's criminal underworld. He has 38 criminal convictions and was involved in a range of violent and illegal activities. He also set up legal businesses recycling scrap metal and disposing of waste. He was rich, successful and at the top of the gangster hierarchy when his son Jason died of a heroin overdose in 1992, at the age of 21. This tragedy led to Grimes becoming a police informer with the aim of bringing down the drug dealers who he felt had destroyed his son's life. His evidence has led to successful prosecutions against high-profile dealers such as John Haase and Curtis Warren. The information Grimes provided also led to his son Heath being jailed for five years.

Grimes is now part of a witness protection program. He has survived six assassination attempts and has a £100,000 bounty on his head.

In the book Powder Wars Graham Johnson offers insight into Paul Grimes' life as first criminal and then supergrass.

The Chieftains 9: Boil the Breakfast Early is an Irish folk album by The Chieftains. This album featured a big change in The Chieftains sound, because two of the founding members, Seán Potts and Michael Tubridy, had left the group. The replacement for Tubridy was Matt Molloy, who had just been a member for both The Bothy Band and Planxty.

This album also featured a song where Kevin Conneff for the first time sings a cappella. Jolyon Jackson also played cello on three tracks.
