Property regulation in South Africa : paving the way for regulation in Lesotho / Mpho Tsepiso TlaleTlale, Mpho Tsepiso January 2014 (has links)
Rapid growth of cities has become a trend in most countries, this is caused by urbanisation wherein people move from the rural areas to the urban areas in search of employment. It goes without saying that such population needs housing. However, it is unusual to find land for housing in an already crowded place. Therefore, to curb this shortage in housing, countries like South Africa have resorted to adoption of fragmented property holding in and around the cities. Thus, in an attempt to curtail housing shortages in the urban area as well as land shortage, communal property schemes were adopted together with their governing legislation namely, Sectional Titles Act 95 of 1986, Share Blocks Act 59 of 1980 and Property Time-sharing Control Act 75 of 1983 to name a few.
Likewise, Maseru, the capital city of Lesotho is also experiencing rapid growth in population. Hence, with the introduction of Lesotho’s Sectional Titles Bill 2013 came a ray of hope that the land and housing shortage in Maseru would be addressed. With this in mind, this suggested that the Government of Lesotho together with all concerned stakeholders thought it necessary to address this problem through the 2013 Bill which, for the most part follows the South African Sectional Titles Act of 1986. It is for this reason that this study was embarked on to show other forms of property holding akin to sectional titles as well as their regulation, which can all be used to eliminate housing shortages in Lesotho. / LLM (Estate Law), North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2015

L'eglise des Freres en Christ Gareganze face au probleme de la nationalite Congolaise (1996-2003): perspectives missiologiques venant de la Republique Democratique du Congo (the Gareganze's Brothers in Christ Church facing the problem of the Congolese citizenship (1996-2003): missiological perspectives from the Democratic Republic of Congo) / Gareganze's Brothers in Christ Church facing the problem of the Congolese citizenship (1996-2003): missiological perspectives from the Democratic Republic of CongoMwambazambi, Kalemba 30 June 2005 (has links)
The mission of the Gareganze's Brothers in Christ Church facing the chaos of the socio-political situation in DRC resulting mostly from the question of the Congolese nationality is to dynamise the christian mission and to protect the poor, set free the captives, because God is always at their side. The DRC, though, has enormous natural resources and the competent human resources capabilities. The national institutions seem to be unable to handle this situation because of the lack of political culture, mismanagement and moral untidiness.
The successive Congolese crises mostly are the same, the common denominator resides in the causes that brought them about. The main objectives of the antagonist groups are political leadership and material wealth.
The findings of our analysis will help the Church of Christ in Congo, to fulfill the prophetic mission and the vision of God, for the positive transformation of the Congolese society. / Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology / M. Div. (Missiology)

Operation and regulation of copyright collective administration in Nigeria : important lessons for AfricaOla, Olukunle Rotimi 13 November 2012 (has links)
The introduction of a regulatory framework in the area of collective management of rights in Nigeria must have been intended to strengthen the creative industry. Unfortunately, it has thrown this industry and in particular the music and film industries into a battle of a regulated against a non-regulated collective administration sector for upward of twenty (20) years.
My choice of research on this topic could be attributed to the interest I developed while administering the collective administration desk at the Nigerian Copyright Commission. Serving on that desk afforded the opportunity to see the frustration of right owners who were being deprived the fruit of their labor, as the societies meant to collect and distribute royalties on their behalf were enmeshed in litigations and in the process, rarely paid any royalties to authors.
Within this context, this research seeks to explore whether there is any merit in the continued existence of the current regulatory framework for collective management in Nigeria, and what the best operational framework for collective administration in Nigeria would be.
A methodological approach entailing literature review of books, articles, journals, legislation, cases, reports of committees and interviews with experts was adopted, with critical analysis carried out on particularly the Nigerian Copyright Act, the Nigerian Copyright (collective management organisation) regulation, the South African Copyright Act, the South African Performers’ Protection Act, the South African Collecting Societies Regulation, as well as judicial decisions challenging certain provisions in the Nigerian legislation.
It is hoped that this research will spur a desire for the need for supervisory and regulatory agencies of government to seek the national interest above all others in taking and making decisions that affect the collective administration of copyright and related rights. / Mercantile law / LL.M.

Factors impacting on feeding practices of infants 0-12 months which lead to malnutrition in a child welfare clinic in Tema Manhean (Tema New-Town), GhanaWilliams, Adwoa Durowaa 31 October 2014 (has links)
This cross-sectional exploratory and descriptive quantitative study explored the factors that impact on feeding practices of infants 0-12 months, encountered in the Child Welfare Clinic in Tema Manhean Health Centre and to determine the possible factors that lead to malnutrition.
The population for this study comprised all infants who attended the Child Welfare Clinic at the Tema Manhean Health Centre. Three hundred and ninety infants participated in this study. Data was collected by means of a structured questionnaire and analysed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 20.
Findings of the study revealed that a larger number of the mothers were still breastfeeding at the time of data collection. All infants aged six months or older were given complementary foods. Some of the factors found to be associated with infant malnutrition included education of mother, employment status of mother, marital status, cultural practices and parity. / Health Studies / M.A.(Public Health)

3D numerical techniques for determining the foot of a continental slopePantland, Nicolette Ariana 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MSc)--University of Stellenbosch, 2004. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) provides an opportunity for qualifying coastal signatory states to claim extended maritime estate. The opportunity to claim rests on the precept
that in certain cases a continental shelf extends beyond the traditionally demarcated two hundred nautical
mile (200M) Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) mark. In these cases a successful claim results in states
having sovereign rights to the living and non-living resources of the seabed and subsoil, as well as the
sedentary species, of the area claimed. Where the continental shelf extends beyond the 200M mark, the
Foot of the Continental Slope (FoS) has to be determined as one of the qualifying criteria. Article 76 of
UNCLOS de nes the FoS as ". . . the point of maximum change in the gradient at its base." Currently
Caris Lots is the most widely used software which incorporates public domain data to determine the
FoS as a step towards defining the offshore extent of an extended continental shelf. In this software,
existing methods to compute the FoS are often subjective, typically involving an operator choosing the
best perceived foot point during consideration of a two dimensional profile of the continental slope.
These foot points are then joined by straight lines to form the foot line to be used in the desk top study
(feasibility study). The purpose of this thesis is to establish a semi-automated and mathematically based
three dimensional method for determination of the FoS using South African data as a case study.
Firstly, a general background of UNCLOS is given (with emphasis on Article 76), including a brief
discussion of the geological factors that influence the characteristics of a continental shelf and thus
factors that could influence the determination of the FoS.
Secondly, a mathematical method for determination of the surfaces of extremal curvature (on three
dimensional data), originally proposed by Vanicek and Ou in 1994, is detailed and applied to two smooth,
hypothetical sample surfaces. A discussion of the bathymetric data to be used for application introduces
the factors to be taken into account when using extensive survey data as well as methods to process
the raw data for use. The method is then applied to two sets of gridded bathymetric data of differing
resolution for four separate regions around the South African coast. The ridges formed on the resulting
surfaces of maximum curvature are then traced in order to obtain a foot line definition for each region
and each resolution.
The results obtained from application of the method are compared with example foot points provided
by the subjective two dimensional method of computation within the Caris Lots software suite. A
comparison of the results for the different resolutions of data is included to provide insight as to the
effectiveness of the method with differing spatial coarseness of data.
Finally, an indication of further work is provided in the conclusion to this thesis, in the form of a
number of recommendations for possible adaptations of the mathematical and tracing methods, and
improvements thereof. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die Verenigde Nasies se Konvensie oor die Wet van die See (UNCLOS) bied 'n geleentheid aan kwalifiserende state wat ondertekenaars van die Konvensie is om aanspraak te maak op uitgebreide maritieme gebied. Die geleentheid om op uitgebreide gebied aanspraak te maak berus op die veronderstelling
dat 'n kontinentale tafel in sekere gevalle tot buite die tradisioneel afgebakende 200 seemyl eksklusiewe
ekonomiese zone (EEZ) strek. In sulke gevalle het 'n suksesvolle aanspraak die gevolg dat die staat
soewereine reg oor die lewende en nie-lewende bronne van die seevloer en ondergrond verkry, sowel as
die inwonende spesies van die gebied buite die EEZ waarop aanspraak gemaak word.
Die voet van die kontinentale tafel (FoS) moet vasgestel word as een van die bepalende kriteria vir
afbakening van die aanspraak waar die kontinentale tafel tot buite die EEZ strek. Artikel 76 van UNCLOS
defineer die FoS as ". . . die punt van maksimale verandering in die helling by sy basis." Die mees algemeen
gebruikte rekenaar sagteware wat openbare domein data aanwend om die voet van die helling te bepaal,
is tans "Caris Lots." Die metodes wat in die program gebruik word om die voet van die helling te bepaal,
is dikwels subjektief en berus tipies op 'n operateur se keuse van die beste afgeskatte punt van die voet
van die helling uit 'n oorweging van 'n twee dimensionele profiel van die kontinentale tafel. Die berekende
voet-punte word dan deur middel van reguit lyne verbind om 'n hellingsvoetlyn te vorm. Hierdie voetlyn
kan dan in die Suid-Afrikaanse lessenaarstudie (doenlikheidstudie) oor die bepaling van die voet van
die kontinentale tafel gebruik word. Die doel van hierdie verhandeling is om 'n semi-outomatiese en
wiskundig gebaseerde drie-dimensionele metode te beskryf vir die vasstelling van die FoS, deur as 'n
gevallestudie van Suid-Afrikaanse data gebruik te maak.
'n Algemene agtergrond van UNCLOS, met beklemtoning van Artikel 76, word eerstens gegee. 'n Kort bespreking van die geologiese faktore wat die kontinentale tafel beïnvloed en wat gevolglik 'n invloed kan
hê op die vasstelling van die voet van die helling, is ingesluit.
Tweedens word 'n wiskundige metode, wat oorspronklik in 1994 deur Vanicek en Ou voorgestel is, vir
bepaling van die oppervlaktes van maksimale kromming (gebaseer op drie-dimensionele data) in detail
bespreek en 'n voorbeeld van 'n toepassing op twee gladde, denkbeeldige oppervaktes word beskryf.
Die faktore wat in ag geneem moet word wanneer omvattende dieptemeting data gebruik word, en die
metodes wat gebruik word om die rou data te verwerk, word ingelei deur 'n bespreking van die aard van
die dieptemeting data wat gebruik is. Die metode word dan toegepas op twee stelle geruite dieptemeting
data van verskillende resolusies vir vier afsonderlike streke om die Suid-Afrikaanse kus. Die riwwe wat
op die resulterende oppervlaktes van maksimale kromming gevorm word, word dan nagetrek ten einde
'n lyndefinisie van die voet van die kontinentale tafel vir elke streek teen elke resolusie te bepaal.
Die resultate verkry uit toepassings van die metode word vergelyk met hellingsvoetpunte soos bepaal
deur die subjektiewe twee dimensionele berekeningsmetode in die "Caris Lots" rekenaar-program. 'n
Vergelyking van die resultate vir die verskillende data resolusies word ingesluit om die doeltreffendheid
van die metode met betrekking tot die hantering van verskillende ruimtelike data resolusies te ondersoek.
'n Aanduiding van verdere werk, bestaande uit 'n aantal aanbevelings vir moontlike aanpassings en verbeterings
van die wiskundige en natrek metodes, word ten slotte in die gevolgtrekking van die verhandeling verskaf.

Recalage non rigide d'images par approches variationnelles statistiques. Application à l'analyse et à la modélisation de la fonction myocardique en IRMPetitjean, Caroline 01 September 2003 (has links) (PDF)
L'analyse quantitative de la fonction contractile myocardique constitue un enjeu majeur pour le dépistage, le traitement et le suivi des maladies cardio-vasculaires, première cause de mortalité dans les pays développés. Dans ce contexte, l'Imagerie par Résonance Magnétique (IRM) s'impose comme une modalité privilégiée pour l'exploration dynamique du coeur, renseignant, d'une part, sur l'évolution des parois (ciné IRM), et permettant, d'autre part, d'accéder à des informations cinématiques au sein du myocarde (IRM de marquage). L'exploitation quantitative de ces données est néanmoins actuellement limitée par la quasi-absence de méthodologies fiables, robustes et reproductibles d'estimation de mouvement non rigide à partir de séquences d'images acquises dans cette modalité.<br /><br />Cette thèse se propose de démontrer que les techniques de recalage non rigide statistique constituent un cadre approprié pour l'estimation des déformations myocardiques en IRM, leur quantification à des fins diagnostiques, et leur modélisation en vue d'établir une référence numérique de normalité. Ses contributions concernent :<br /><br /> 1. l'élaboration d'une méthode robuste non supervisée d'estimation des déplacements myocardiques à partir de séquences d'IRM de marquage. Elle permet l'obtention de mesures de mouvement fiables en tout point du myocarde, à tout instant du cycle cardiaque et sous incidence de coupe arbitraire.<br /><br /> 2. le développement d'un outil de quantification dynamique des déformations à l'échelle du pixel et du segment myocardique, intégrant un étape de segmentation automatique du coeur par recalage d'images ciné IRM acquises conjointement aux données de marquage. Pour le coeur sain, la comparaison des mesures obtenues à des valeurs de référence issues d'une synthèse approfondie de la littérature médicale démontre une excellente corrélation. Pour des coeurs pathologiques, les expériences menées ont montré la pertinence d'une analyse quantitative multiparamétrique pour localiser et caractériser les zones atteintes.<br /><br /> 3. la construction d'un modèle statistique (atlas) de contraction d'un coeur sain. Cet atlas fournit des modèles quantitatifs de référence locaux et segmentaires pour les paramètres de déformation. Son intégration, en tant que modèle de mouvement, au processus de recalage des données d'IRM de marquage conduit en outre à une description très compacte des déplacements myocardiques sans perte de précision notable.

日本的東海政策 / Japan's East China Sea Policy呂建良, Lu, Chien-Liang Unknown Date (has links)
日本的東海政策將對台灣的主權與主權權利造成明顯而立即的影響,因此,日本的東海政策值得深入研究,以維護國家海洋權益。
目前,日本與台灣、中國圍繞在東海的爭端,主要區分為以下三大部分。首先,海域爭端:日本與台灣、中國在東海出現了專屬經濟海域重疊狀況,引發海域劃界糾紛。其次,島嶼爭端:台灣、中國與日本皆主張擁有釣魚台列嶼的主權。第三、油氣爭端:台灣、中國、日本均面臨石油短缺問題,都很重視東海石油的開發與利用。所以,本文選定以日本對於東海的海域政策、釣魚台政策,以及油氣田政策三個息息相關且不可分割的海洋政策面向,來研究日本的東海政策。
本論文從歷史研究途徑的角度,輔以國際海洋法的觀點來探討日本的東海政策,共分為六章:第一章「緒論」說明研究背景、研究動機、研究目的、研究方法,與研究面向。第二章「東海的地緣環境」介紹東海的地緣範疇、經濟價值,與戰略地位。第三章「海域政策」探討日本在東海的海域政策,包括領海、專屬經濟海域、大陸礁層,並說明日本與中國的海域劃界主張。第四章「釣魚台政策」整理歷次釣魚台主權爭議的經緯,並論述爭端國各方主權主張的法理依據,然後指出日本對於釣魚台的政策實踐。第五章「油氣田政策」回顧周圍國家在東海的探採活動,其次討論春曉油氣田事件中,中國的探採經過與日本的因應對策,接著分析中日東海油氣田爭端造成的影響。第六章「結論」歸納主要論點,根據研究結果指出影響日本東海政策的國內外因素,以及日本的東海政策之特點,俾使台灣事先研擬相關對策,進而爭取最大之國家利益與海洋權益。 / Japan's East China Sea policy has a clear and present influence on Taiwan's sovereignty and sovereign rights. Therefore it is important for us to study Japan's East China Sea policy in order to protect our nation's sea rights and interests.
At present, the main conflicts between Japan, China and Taiwan in the East China Sea are as follows: First, the maritime delimitation disputes between Japan, China and Taiwan in the East China Sea. Second, Japan, China and Taiwan all declared territorial sovereignty to Tiaoyutai Islands. Third, Japan, China and Taiwan all have oil shortage problems, so they pay much attention to the exploration and the use of petroleum in the East China Sea. Then this thesis selects Japan's sea policy, Tiaoyutai Islands policy, as well as oil and gas fields policy, three closely linked and inalienable sea policy dimensions, to study Japan's East China Sea policy.
The thesis discusses Japan's East China Sea policy from the perspective of historical approach and international law of sea. There are six chapters in this thesis: Chapter One makes a description of the background of the study, the purpose of the study, the objective of study, the methodology of the study, and the dimensions of the study. Chapter Two gives an introduction to the East China Sea's surroundings, economic value and strategic position. Chapter Three probes Japan's sea policy, includes territorial sea, exclusive economic zone, continental shelf, and discusses the claims of the maritime delimitation made by Japan and China. Chapter four looks back on the sovereign dispute history of Tiaoyutai Islands, and exhausts the legal basis of the claims made by Japan, China and Taiwan, then points out the practices of Japan in Tiaoyutai Islands. Chapter Five reviews the exploration of the petroleum made by the countries situated around the East China Sea, then discusses China's exploration of Chunxiao oil and gas fields, and the countermeasures of Japan, then analyzes the impact of disputes between China and Japan in the East China Sea oil and gas fields. Chapter Six concludes the main issues, points out the domestic and foreign factors which affect Japan's East China Sea policy, and the characteristics of Japan's East China Sea policy. Thus Taiwan can plan the related countermeasures and strives for our national interests and the sea rights in the future.

Sûretés réelles et droit des biens / Securities and property lawGijsbers, Charles 08 December 2012 (has links)
Propriété, droit réel sur la chose d’autrui, opposabilité, droit de suite, droit de préférence, exclusivité, meubles, immeubles, accession, accessoire, subrogation réelle, fongibilité, universalité, etc. la liste est longue des concepts forgés par le droit des biens que sollicitent les sûretés réelles, non parfois sans les malmener, afin d’atteindre leur finalité propre qu’est la garantie du paiement des créances de somme d’argent. Après plusieurs thèses, articles et monographies consacrés à tel ou tel aspect de ces interactions, la présente thèse livre une étude globale des rapports noués entre les deux disciplines afin de mettre en évidence leurs points de rencontre, leurs points de divergence et, le cas échéant, de possibles enrichissements réciproques. / Property, real rights, tracing, exclusive possession, movables, immovables, accession, accessory obligation, real subrogation, fungibles, funds, etc. are a few of the many concepts forged by property law that are used and sometimes misused, in the law relating to security transactions. The misuse of such concepts in the latter area of law can be attributed to the different purpose that underlies such transactions, being specifically the guaranteeing of debt repayment. After several theses, essays and monographs have been devoted to particular aspects of these interactions between property law and the law surrounding security transactions, this thesis delivers a comprehensive study about the relationship established between the two areas of law, and will highlight their points of convergence, points of divergence and mutual efficiency.

Estrutura da população, crescimento e reprodução de Maurolicus stehmanni Parin & Kobylianski, 1993 (Teleostei: Sternoptychidae) na zona econômica e exclusiva do sul e sudeste do Brasil. / Population structure, growth and reproduction of Maurolicus stehmanni Parin & Kobyliansky, 1993 (Teleostei: Sternoptychidae) in south-eastern and south Brazilian economic exclusive zone.Almeida, Eduardo Machado de 19 February 2001 (has links)
Maurolicus é um gênero representado por peixes mesopelágicos, com elevada biomassa na Zona Econômica Exclusiva sudeste sul brasileira. O material deste estudo provém de arrastos com rede de meia água efetuados com o N/Oc. Atlântico Sul, entre as isóbatas de 100 e 1500 m e entre as latitudes 22° e 35° S, realizados no inverno de 1996; outono de 1997 e primavera de 1997. A análise das características merísticas e morfológicas de 120 exemplares, coletados em 4 pontos distintos, indicou que na região ocorre M. stehmanni Parin & Kobyliansky, 1993. Através da análise da distribuição vertical e horizontal das capturas, verificou-se que a espécie está associada à região de quebra de plataforma continental, permanecendo em profundidades maiores que 200 metros durante o dia, migrando para camadas superiores a noite, com a diminuição da intensidade luminosa. Pela distribuição de freqüência de comprimento e proporção entre jovens e adultos constatou-se que ocorreu recrutamento em todos os períodos estudados. A partir da análise da proporção entre peixes jovens e adultos por comprimento estimou-se o L50médio em 32 mm. As análises da relação gonadossomática, da freqüência dos estádios de maturidade gonadal e do ∆K (diferença entre o fator de condição total e somático) indicaram que a espécie apresentou atividade reprodutiva em todas as áreas e épocas analisadas. A relação entre o raio do otólito e o tamanho dos indivíduos é linear, porém não foi possível identificar a periodicidade de formação dos anéis, impossibilitando estimativas adequadas dos parâmetros de crescimento. Aplicando-se a rotina ELEFAN I, do pacote computacional FISAT, aos dados de freqüência de comprimento foi estimado o L∞ em 53 mm e k em 0,9 ano-1, indicando que a espécie atinge o tamanho médio da 1 a maturação gonadal em torno do 1º ano de vida. / Maurolicus is a genus of mesopelagic fish very abundant in the south-eastern and south Brazilian Economic Exclusive Zone. The material of this study was sampled by mid water trawl during cruises of R/V Atlântico Sul in winter of 1996, autumn of 1997 and spring of 1997, between 100 and 1500 meters depth, from latitudes of 22° to 35° S. The meristic and morphological analysis of 120 specimens collected in 4 distinctive points, has indicated the occurrence of M. stehmanni Parin & Kobyliansky, 1993 in the area. Through the vertical and horizontal distribution of the catches it was verified that this species is associated with the shelf break, staying in depths higher than 200 m during the day, migrating to lower depths at night as the luminous intensity falls. The length frequency and the proportion between youngs and adults showed that the recruitment occured during the periods surveyed. By means of young-adult proportion by length a value of L50 about 32 mm was estimated. The study of gonadossomatic relationship, gonadal maturity frequency and ∆K (difference between total and somatic condition factor) indicated that M. stehmanni presented reproductive activity in the area during all the sampled seasons. There is a linear relationship between the standard length and the otolith radius, however the periodicity of the zone formation was not identified, which did not permit appropriate estimates of the growth parameters. The L∞ of 53 mm and k of 0,9 year1 were estimated using ELEFAN I routine (FISAT) based on length frequency data, indicating that M. stehmanni attains maturity around its first year of life.
