10. Replica HM Sloop Norfolk.

Author

Dixon, Craig

Subjects

Abstract

The Bass & Flinders Maritime Museum in George Town, Northern Tasmania is the permanent home for the replica Norfolk. In 1994 Bern Cuthbertson initiated and supervised the building of the replica in preparation for the 1998 bicentenary of George Bass and Matthew Flinders circumnavigation of Tasmania. After some refurbishment Hunter offered the vessel to Matthew Flinders & George Bass. [Extracted from the article]

11. Controlling chemoselectivity in vinyl and allylic C-X bond activation with palladium catalysis: A pKa- based electronic switch

Author

Organ, Michael G., Arvanitis, Elena A., Dixon, Craig E., and Cooper, Jeremy T.

Subjects
Chemical reactions -- Analysis, Palladium catalysts -- Usage, Chemistry
Abstract

The chemoselectivity of Pd activation of either vinylic or allylic leaving groups interchangeably with nonsterically or confirmationally biased substrates can be controlled. Results found that there is a narrow pK2 range for the phenols involved to maintain the pronounced selectivity with the vinyl bromide oxidative addition partner.

14. Cycloaddition reactions of aldehydes to tetramesityldisilene and tetramesitylgermasilene: evidence for a biradical intermediate

Author

Dixon, Craig E., Hughes, Donald W., and Baines, Kim M.

Subjects
Ring formation (Chemistry) -- Research, Aldehydes -- Research, Cyclic compounds -- Research, Chemistry
Abstract

The process by which the addition of aldehydes to disilenes and germasilenes was studied by investigating the reaction between trans-(2-phenylcyclopropyl)carboxaldehyde and tetramesityldisilene or tetramesitylgermasilene. The products of the reactions were in agreement with the formation of cyclopropylcarbinyl radical intermediates. The generation of these products indicates that the addition of aldehydes to tetramesitylgermasilene and -disilene occurs through a biradical intermediate.

15. Addition of methyl grignard reagents to germasilenes and digermenes: Unusual ligand exchange reaction of the resulting germyl grignard reagents

Grignard reagents -- Usage, Chemical reactions -- Observations, Chemistry
Abstract

The reactivity of disilenes, germasilenes and digermenes toward Grignard reagents is unknown. Reaction between tetramesitylgermasilene and -degermene and methyl Grignard reagents have been examined. Methylmagnesium iodide was found to add to tetramesitylgermasilene and tetramesityldigermene, with the addition to the germasilene being regioselective. The observed ligand exchange is explained by a proposed mechanism involving the alpha-elimination of MesMgX followed by the addition of MeMgX to intermediate germylene.

22. The use of CIS in environmental planning

Author

Dixon, Craig and Malis, Alison

Abstract

Coalmine reclamation is a major component of mine planning. Reclamation planning of a mine starts at the inventory phase, where biophysical data from pre-disturbance surveys must be collected. Much of this data can be collected from satellite imagery, digital orthophotos, topographic maps, ground data collection as well as existing digital data provided by the related Provincial and Federal Government Ministries. Once this data is collected all of the data can utilized in a Geographic Information System to map the data as well as relate the database information to the spatial data and use this as the base for recording and analyzing pre-disturbance levels, biophysical information, reclamation objectives, monitoring successes, current status of the disturbed areas and to predict future responses. The use of CIS in reclamation planning allows for quick, accurate, and precise management of data. CIS allows quicker and more convenient summaries of quantifiable data thus improving efficiency in appraising present plans to determine if they will meet with regulations and required reclamation standards (e.g. required amount of wildlife habitat to be replaced, areas, distances, etc.) The process of mining is not a single disturbance event; it encompasses an on-going disturbance of land necessitating the use of an on-going management. Updates to a CIS database can be accomplished quickly and accurately. Multiple scenario modelling can be undertaken by making small changes to the CIS model (e.g. a CIS model allows manipulation of data and what-if scenarios quicker, cheaper, and with less environmental disturbance than trials on real land). The ability to run predictive scenarios will also make it possible to plan ahead which is the most pro-active technique that can be done. Modelling can help support theories or plans for reclamation work before the work has actually started on the reclamation - i.e. an actual working model of a proposed reclamation plan will be accepted by government and public much easier than a plan that has only literature to back it up. A considerable reduction in reclamation costs may be noticed from enhanced pre-planning of reclamation and decreased uncertainty in the planning procedure.

*MILLENNIALS, *YOUTH in politics, *POLITICAL parties & society, *POLITICAL participation, UNITED States presidential elections
Abstract

The article presents the author's insights on the political and economic involvement of millennials, the generation born between the 1980s and the 1990s. It states that millennial voters have helped U.S. President Barack Obama to win the election in 2008, but they will become the largest age-based voting block in the American politics. It also mentions that if Republicans cannot find a way to appeal to millennials, the political party may lost their future in politics.
