AN ANALYSIS OF VICTORIA ANDREW’S DIVORCE IN KATRINA \ud JOHNSONS’S NOVEL "EVENING STREET"
Literature reflects about life, thought, feeling, behavior, and attitude of human being. Literature \ud
helps us understand human sentiment, human interest, and human problems. Literature is divided \ud
into three kinds, they are poetry, prose, and drama. In prose, a novel is a new kind of literary \ud
work. Various life experiences presented in a novel may give us wider prespective of life which \ud
is very useful for the growth of our personality, integrity, and performance. This research uses a \ud
kind of novel that is historical novel. Historical novel is a long story in which the characters or \ud
events existed or happened in the past. Evening Street is a kind of historical novel that the story \ud
happened in the past time. Evening Street’s novel was chosen because the story is in sequence \ud
and easy to understand. Besides, the problems that are faced by the main character could make \ud
the researcher interested to analyze. The three major purposes considered being the main \ud
problems in analyzing the Victoria Andrew’s divorce are (1) to describe the causes of Victoria \ud
Andrew’s divorce, (2) to describe the effects of the divorce on Victoria Andrew’s life. \ud
The study used descriptive qualitative design to analyze the data. The approach that was suitable \ud
with this analysis was objective approach because this research did not study the author’s life. \ud
Merely, the research emphasized on the novel’s physical content that is the quotations of the \ud
dialoque and explained the meanings of the quotation in an objective way. The object of this \ud
study was the novel “evening Street” by “Katrina Johnson”. \ud
The results of this study show that the causes of Victoria Andrew’s divorce are lack of Fred and \ud
Mrs Buck respect to Victoria Andrew, and Fred and Mrs Buck’s control over Victoria. \ud
Furthermore, the effects of the divorce on Victoria Andrew’s life are Victoria feels depressed, \ud
she is sick, Victoria gets another man who loves her, Victoria escapes from her house, and Dow \ud
proposes Victoria to get married with hi

OECD reviews of higher education in regional and city development, State of Victoria, Australia
With more than 5.3 million inhabitants Victoria is the second most populous state in Australia. Once a manufacturing economy, Victoria is now transforming itself into a service and innovation-based economy. Currently, the largest sectors are education services and tourism. In terms of social structure, Victoria is characterised by a large migrant population, 24% of population were born overseas and 44% were either born overseas or have a parent who was born overseas. About 70% of the population resides in Melbourne. Victoria faces a number of challenges, ranging from an ageing population and skills shortages to drought and climate change and increased risk of natural disasters. Rapid population growth, 2% annually, has implications for service delivery and uneven development as well as regional disparities. There are barriers to connectivity in terms of transport and infrastructure, and a high degree of inter-institutional competition in tertiary education sector. The business structure in Victoria includes some highly innovative activities such as in biotechnology, but other sectors, especially those with high number of small and medium-sized enterprises, are lagging behind. Most of the larger manufacturing enterprises are externally controlled and there is uncertainty over the long term investments they will make in the state, as well as the place of Victoria in the global production networks
Emergence of Sri Lanka in European fish trade
This paper examines European Union (E.U.) demand for chilled fish fillets assuming product heterogeneity due to country of origin and assesses the structural adjustment in demand as indicated by the increase in imports from Sri Lanka since the tsunami in December 2004. The primary objective of this research is to assess how Sri Lanka’s fish exports affected fish exports from Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda (Lake Victoria region). Although the results show no significant price competition between the Lake Victoria region and Sri Lanka, the Lake Victoria countries are clearly worse off now that Sri Lanka is a major supplier of chilled fish to the E.U. A comparison of the two periods 2001–2004 and 2007–2009 finds that in the former period, past imports of Lake Victoria fish had a positive impact on present imports, indicating that importers developed a preference for Lake Victoria fish during this time; in the latter period, this effect no longer existed. Most important is the change in the responsiveness of imports from Lake Victoria to real aggregate expenditures on imported fish in the E.U. The results show that a lesser share of aggregate expenditures is allocated to the Lake Victoria region and that the region now benefits less from an increase in aggregate expenditures.Lake Victoria, fish, imports,
Distribution of Oreochromis niloticus (L.) in the Ugandan waters of Lake Victoria
The Lake Victoria fish fauna was dominated by cichlids before the establishment of the exotic species Oreochromis niloticus (L.) and Latus niloticus (L.). With the alterations in the ecology of Lake Victoria, changes may be expected to occur in the population dynamics of the fish species. In two zones of Lake Victoria, the size structure, distribution and abundance, condition factors, length-weight relationship and sex ratios of O. niloticus were determined. Larger fish were found in zone II than in zone III, where very few larger fish were recorded. More O. niloticus were caught in zone III, especially in Itome Bay, than in zone II but catch by weight was greater in zone II. More males than females were encountered in both zones. Oreochromis niloticus had similar condition factors in both zones

Implementing integrated coastal zone management through the use of coastal action plans: lessons from Victoria
There are currently no performance indicators in place for assessing the successful implementation of Victoria,\u27s strategic plans (Coastal Action Plans, CAPs) in achieving Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) at a regional level. This article explores the findings of a study which assessed the success of the approach adopted in Victoria under the State Coastal Management Act 1995 to implement ICZM through CAPs. The study developed a set of criteria for measuring this success. We conclude with a discussion of how appropriate such an approach may be in other jurisdictions

Lack of Genetic Diversity in Newly Sequenced Porcine Circovirus Type 1 Strains Isolated 20 Years Apart
The complete genome sequences of a porcine circovirus type 1 (PCV1) strain isolated in 1990 and one isolated in 2011 were obtained and compared to the sequences of other available PCV1 isolates. Phylogenetic analyses revealed very low genetic diversity among these viruses, indicating an advanced state in the evolution of PCV1
