He is a former editor of "Critical Perspectives on Accounting", a former board member of the Parkland Institute and the Director of the Public Interest Accounting Group at York University. He is best known for his studies of accounting power in action: that is how governments, international organizations and corporations use accounting to govern and subjegate less powerful members of society (and how the less powerful respond and resist). This genre of accounting research--what is often referred to as critical accounting research or public interest accounting research--tends | 121 | 656 |
21014520 | "Dean Neu" | to use the case study method to examine how accounting is used in certain settings as well as the associated consequences. The starting point is the recognition that accounting numbers both help make certain aspects of organizational reality visible and distributes economic resources. This research differs from other accounting research such as positive accounting which assumes that research is descriptive rather than normative. Neu's publications include: Along with other publicly-interested accounting academics such as David J. Cooper, Abraham J. Briloff, Christine Cooper and Prem Sikka, he has practiced public interest accounting through both his research and through his participation in | 120 | 699 |

These public interventions include speaking out against concrete forms of neo-liberalism such as government privatization and deficit-cutting activities that disproportionately affect the most vulnerable members of society.

It was designed by Fowell & McConnel and built from 1929 to 1930 by Messrs Hutcherson Bros. It was formerly known as BMA House or the British Medical Association House. The property is privately owned. It was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999. The | 136 | 604 |
21014537 | "AMA House, Sydney" | British Medical Association, founded in England in 1832 to promote both the study of medicine and protection of the medical profession, established branches in three Australian states in 1879-80. The New South Wales branch, under its founding president, the highly distinguished Sir Arthur Renwick, grew from small beginnings in 1880 to be the largest in Australia. This BMA branch replaced the earlier Australian Medical Association formed in Sydney by Dr William Bland in 1859. The BMA flourished in New South Wales during the 23 years, 1908 to 1931, when its secretary was Dr Robert Todd, a prominent physician, barrister, clarinettist, | 144 | 639 |
21014538 | "AMA House, Sydney" | university lecturer and medical administrator. Todd was largely responsible for the acquisition of lots 17 and 18 in Macquarie Street in the 1920s. This area of the city had been in the grounds of First Government House, demolished in 1845-6 and its land sub-divided after 1847. Lot 18 had been first purchased along with the adjacent lot 19 (the site of History House) by a speculative J. N. Palmer in 1849: lot 19 had been owned by Dr Bland in the 1850s and its neighbouring lots were some seventy years later acquired by the successor association to Bland's. The substantial | 143 | 577 |

The new building was completed in April 1930, acclaimed, along with Grace Bros' new store in King Street, as "the first two local examples that can be said to really follow the dictates of skyscraper and modern American architecture generally". Its qualities of design were recognised when in 1933 its architects were the first recipients | 140 | 620 |
21014540 | "AMA House, Sydney" | of the Royal Institute of British Architects Street medal and diploma. The faience terracotta panelling of the exterior by Wunderlich was matched in the principal public interior spaces and the six full-size medieval knights in armour along with two koalas perched high on the facade were manufactured by the same firm. The spectacular assembly hall was panelled with Queensland maple and with Colotex, which was affixed to battens on the concrete walls to give the best acoustics and insulation. Dr Todd died just a year after the building was completed and the hall became the Robert H. Todd Assembly Hall. | 129 | 608 |

The AMA House has high aesthetic significance as a particularly fine and rare example of early Sydney "skyscraper" designed in an exuberant and idiosyncratic Inter-war Art Deco style embellished with "Medieval" and "Gothic" decoration. While providing important evidence of the strong influence of American styles and building techniques on Sydney's interwar commercial buildings, AMA House is notable for its use of both local materials and technologies - including particularly | 145 | 682 |

The quality of original finishes and detailing both externally and internally and the high degree of intactness of significant original fabric enhance the building's architectural and aesthetic significance. The building is also of importance as a fine, award-winning example of the work of a prominent firm of Sydney architects, Fowell and McConnel was one of only two office buildings designed by this firm in the Interwar period. BMA House also has | 128 | 638 |

The war in Flanders was thus at the origin of a popular revolt in Rouen, which aimed to oppose the maltôte. By extension, the word "maltôte" quickly was used to mean any extraordinary taxes.

21014593 | "Witold Lipski" | Witold Lipski Witold Lipski Jr. (July 13, 1949, in Warsaw, Poland – May 30, 1985, in Nantes, France) was a Polish computer scientist (habilitation in computer science), and an author of two books: Combinatorics for Programmers (two editions) and (jointly with Wiktor Marek Combinatorial analysis. Jointly with his PhD student, Tomasz Imieliński, created foundations of the theory of incomplete information in relational databases. Lipski graduated from the Program of Fundamental Problems of Technology, at the Warsaw Technical University. He received Ph.D. in computer science at the Computational Center (later: Institute for Computer Science) of the Polish Academy of Sciences, under | 162 | 686 |
21014594 | "Witold Lipski" | supervision of Prof. Wiktor Marek. The dissertation title was: 'Combinatorial Aspects of Information Retrieval'. His habilitation was granted by the Institute of Computer Science of Polish Academy of Sciences. Lipski spent academic year 1979/1980 at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, and the last two years before his death, at the University of Paris. Jointly with his doctoral student, Tomasz Imielinski, Lipski investigated foundations of treatment of 'Incomplete Information in Relational Databases'. The results of these investigations were published in the bibliographical items Again, in collaboration with Imielinski, Lipski studied the semantical issues of relational databases. These investigations were based | 154 | 733 |

According to Van den Bussche, the first people from database community to recognize the connection between Codd's relational algebra and Tarski's cylindric algebras were Witold Lipski and Tomasz Imieliński, in a talk given at the very first edition of PODS (the ACM Symposium on Principles of Database Systems), in 1982. Their work,"The relational model of data and cylindric algebras" was later published in 1984. Additionally, Lipski contributed to the research in the are of algorithm analysis, specifically - by discovering a number of efficient algorithms applicable in the | 151 | 657 |

Lipski was an author of a book on combinatorial algorithms, Combinatorics for Programmers ("Kombinatoryka dla Programistow", in Polish). This book has had two editions (one of these posthumous) and it was also translated in Russian. Additionally, jointly with Wiktor Marek, Lipski published a monograph on Combinatorial analysis.

Many are inspired by a brilliant career of Witold Lipski whose life was cut shot by a terminal illness. The Prize is awarded for achievements in the area of theoretical and applied Computer Science. It has been created by the initiative of a group of Polish Computer Scientists active outside of Poland and in Poland. The submissions for the Prize are limited to applicants with exceptional accomplishments, who are younger than 30, or who are younger | 131 | 612 |
