CALLIPHORIDAE (DIPTERA) IN MANAUS: IV. BACTERIA ISOLATED FROM BLOWFLIES COLLECTED IN STREET MARKETS

Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Proteussp., Providenciasp., Citrobactersp. and Klebsiellasp. were isolated from calliphorid flies collected in eight street markets in the city of Manaus, Amazonas State, Brazil. The presence of £. coliin the samples suggests that faecal contamination is occurring and that these flies are potential vehicles of enteropathogenic bacteria to exposed foods.

Terrestrial Lidar investigation of the 2004 rockslide along Petit Champlain Street, Québec City (Quebec, Canada)

Au cours des 240 dernières années, 53 mouvements de versant se sont produits le long du promontoire de Québec, causant la mort de 88 personnes principalement lors de chutes de blocs. En octobre 2004, un petit éboulement a atteint la route dans une zone proche de l'éboulement de 1889 qui a tué 35 personnes et blessé 30 autres. Une image 3D a été créée par l'utilisation d'un scanner Lidar terrestre (SLT). Les sept familles de joints identifiées sont en accord avec les mesures effectuées dans de précédentes études. L'imagerie SLT a aussi permit d'estimer les volumes des instabilités passées et d'en analyser le mécanisme : un glissement rocheux qui affecte des blocs débités en parallélépipèdes par d'autres familles de joints. De plus la zone étudiée montre qu'elle est favorable aux chutes de blocs.

Street-Level Bureaucracy and E-Government

With the intensive use of information and communication technologies, governments are transforming into e-governments. While public management research has given increased attention to this subject lately, this article reviews the limited literature that deals with the impacts of e-government technologies on street-level bureaucracies. A twofold argument is being developed. First, what can be called the 'curtailment thesis', stressing the reduction or disappearance of frontline policy discretion, is addressed. Second, the 'enablement thesis' gets attention, highlighting how technologies provide frontline workers and citizens with additional action resources. The article concludes with propositions for a future research agenda on the topic.

Bash Street Kids

Primary school teachers will find materials, advice and suggestions here to help them give pupils aged 7 to 11 (Key Stage 2 or P7 in Scotland) greater opportunities both to learn about and have access to fruit and vegetable choices. There are also details of how these materials fit with the school curriculum. The aims of 5-a-day the Bash Street way are to: - encourage children to eat more fruit and vegetables each day - help them to feel more positive about fruit and vegetables, which can genuinely promote their good health - help establish the 5-a-day habit for a lifetime

A Public Service Gap: Capturing Contexts in a Comparative Approach of Street-Level Bureaucracy

Studies of street-level bureaucracy have introduced a variety of conceptualizations, research approaches, and causal inferences. While this research has produced several insights, the impact of variety in the institutional context has not been adequately explored. We present the construct of a public service gap as a way to incorporate contextual factors and facilitate comparison. This construct addresses the differences between what is asked of and what is offered to public servants working at the street level. The heuristic enables the systematic capture of macro- and meso-contextual influences, thus enhancing comparative research on street-level bureaucracy.
