Queen Anne Commands: clothing the kettle drummer to the Ordnance 1706-1709

The account books of the Board of Ordnance in the National Archives list the provisions made to the Ordnance, including clothing, and offer a wonderful insight into uniform provided to the soldiers serving with this branch of the military at time of the War of the Spanish Succession. Through a series of accounts dating from 1706 to 1708 this paper demonstrates how one position under the control of the Board of Ordnance, that of the kettle drummer, was ostentatious in the extreme requiring ninety yards of gold lace. The article will relate his clothing to clothing provided to other soldiers, and show how his clothes reflected the high status of the kettle drummer

KETERSEDIAAN VEGETASI PADA KORIDOR JALAN NGESREP BANYUMANIK

Setiap harinya intensitas pergerakan pengguna jalan di koridor Jalan Ngesrep ini bertambah tinggi dikarenakan aktivitas yang terdapat di sepanjang koridor jalan ini beragam seperti pemukiman penduduk dan perdaganggan jasa. Berkurangnya luas lahan ruang terbuka hijau untuk ketersediaan vegetasi di sepanjang koridor Jalan Ngesrep menjadi nilai estetika koridor tersebut berkurang. Ketersediaan vegetasi yang berperan penting dalam efektivitas fungsi ruang terbuka hijau selain berfungsi sebagai nilai estetika juga bermanfaat menyerap polusi udara. Kurangnya jumlah ketersediaan vegetasi pada koridor JalanNgesrep terkait dengan kurangnya proporsi kawasan yang dialokasikan untuk ruang terbuka dan menyebabkan menjadi rendah, menurunnya tingkat kesejahteraan masyarakat dan secara langsung menyebabkan menurunnya nilai estetika hijau lingkungan serta sarana cadangan air tanah ikut serta menurun. Untuk memenuhi ketersediaan vegetasi pada koridor Jalan Ngesrep yang fungsional dan ekologis pada suatu sistem perkotaan diperlukan adanya pengelolaan yang komprehensif dari bebagai pihak yaitu pemerintah, swsata, dan masyarakat

Risk of reconviction among offenders who commence the Blacktown Traffic Offender Program

This paper examines the profile of offenders who commenced the Blacktown Traffic Offender Program between 1994 and 2011 and investigates which factors predict re-offending. Method: Descriptive statistics were used to examine the profile of program participants. Logistic regression models were used to determine which participant characteristics were associated with an increased risk of reconviction (for any offence and any traffic offence). Results: Fifteen per cent of participants committed a new offence in the 2 years following program commencement, and 11 per cent committed a further traffic offence. Being male, aged between 16 and 20 years, Indigenous, having a prior criminal record, and having 3 or more concurrent offences were all associated with an increased risk of being convicted for any further offence. Being aged between 16 and 20 years, living in more disadvantaged areas, having a prior criminal record, and having 3 or more concurrent offences were associated with an increased likelihood of being convicted for a new traffic offence. Approximately two-thirds of offenders who present with 4 or more risk factors go on to commit any new offence and one-third commit a new traffic offence. Conclusion: Results suggests that certain individual characteristics indicate an elevated risk of reconviction for any further offence, and further traffic offences in the 2 years following commencement of the Blacktown Traffic Offender Program. Offenders who present with multiple (4 or more) risk factors are at significantly greater risk of reconviction

Human ascariasis: diagnostics update

Soil-transmitted helminths (STHs) infect over one billion people worldwide. Ascariasis may mimic a number of conditions, and individual clinical diagnosis often requires a thorough work-up. Kato-Katz thick smears are the standard detection method for Ascaris and, despite low sensitivity, are often used for mapping and monitoring and evaluation of national control programmes. Although increased sampling (number of stools) and diagnostic (number of examinations per stool) efforts can improve sensitivity, Kato-Katz is less sensitive than other microscopy methods such as FLOTAC®. Antibody-based diagnostics may be a sensitive diagnostic tool; however, their usefulness is limited to assessing transmission in areas aiming for elimination. Molecular diagnostics are highly sensitive and specific, but high costs limit their use to individual diagnosis, drug - efficacy studies and identification of Ascaris suum. Increased investments in research on Ascaris and other STHs are urgently required for the development of diagnostic assays to support efforts to reduce human suffering caused by these infections

Human liver flukes

Liver fluke infections occur in people worldwide. In some low-income regions, a combination of ecological, agricultural, and culinary factors leads to a very high prevalence of infection but, in higher-income regions, infections are uncommon. Infection is associated with substantial morbidity and several liver fluke species are recognised as biological carcinogens. Here, we review the epidemiology, clinical significance, and diagnostic and treatment strategies of human infection with these pathogens
