...against The Canberra Cycling Club under the Discrimination Act (ACT)? II SHORT ANSWER Under section 22 of the Discrimination Act (ACT), it could be circumstantially demonstrated that The Canberra Cycling Club committed an unlawful act of discrimination based on the political conviction of Mr Hock. However, there are limitations as to what action Mr Hock could pursue as detailed in the Discrimination Act (ACT) sections 71 and 72. In order for Mr Hock to be awarded damages, a judgement from the Tribunal would be required that the action was unlawful discrimination based on political conviction that is substantiated by the evidence presented. It would further have to be demonstrated that Mr Hock had been treated in a manner that was inconsistent with a manner in which other members of the club based on his political conviction. This is a point which cannot be adequately demonstrated on the balance of probabilities by the statement of facts provided. III STATEMENT OF RELEVANT FACTS The statement of relevant facts relating to Mr Hock’s claim of discrimination are: * Mr Hock has been an active member of the Canberra Cycling Club since 2012. * In February, Mr Hock filled out a form for renewal of his club membership, payed his $39 membership fee, and submitted the form on 1 March 2015. * On 5 March 2015, he received a message from the Club Board saying that they are refusing to renew his membership because he failed to meet the requirements of the Club by-laws which state that...

...Chestnut Ridge Country Club Filename: chestnut1=2011.sav The Chestnut Ridge Country Club has long maintained a distinguished reputation as one of the outstanding country clubs in Elma, Tennessee, area. The club’s golf facilities are said by some to be the finest in the state, and its dining and banquet facilities are highly regarded as well . This reputation is due in part to the commitment by the Board of Directors of Chestnut Ridge to offer the finest facilities of any club in the area. For example , several negative comments by club members regarding the dining facilities prompted the board to survey members to get their feelings and perceptions of the dining facilities and food offerings at the club .Based on the survey findings, the board of directors established a quality control committee to oversee the dining room and a new club manager was hired. Most recently ,the board became concerned about the number of people seeking membership to Chestnut Ridge. Although no records are kept on the number of membership applications received each year, the board sensed that this figure was declining. They also believed that membership applications at the three competing country clubs in the area – Alden, Chalet and Lancaster … were not experiencing similar declines. Because Chestnut Ridge had other facilities , such as tennis club and a pool ,that were comparable to the facilities at these other clubs , the board was perplexed as to why membership applications would...

...American Warehouse Clubs Date: 7-08-2012 | 1. Competition like in the North American wholesale club industry: - In North America discount warehouse and whole club segment has $125 billion market shares captured by Costco, Sam’s and BJ’s. There is high competition in the whole club sector, because every firm wants to enter a more profitable market by offering low prices with top quality products to grab customer attention. To attain this they have low operating cost and low labor cost to operate their facilities. They dictate the suppliers for price, deliveries and payment terms. As it indicates the suppliers have to wait for 30 to 60 days for their payments after the delivery is done. Other than general customers these clubs are attracted small business owners, churches and non-profit organizations. To increase the profit margins they introduced annual membership fee collected from customers to purchase products in whole sale clubs. Among the three whole sale clubs Costco and Sam’s club are in various states and have also established themselves internationally. But BJ‘s has limited their store to eastern seaboard of the US only and its market share is not affected by other two clubs at their positions. BJ’s accepts coupons which add value to its customers. This is an advantage to BJ’s and a disadvantage to the other two firms. BJ’s does have same competition levels of the other two clubs to participate in rivalry.

BURTON PRESIDENT 2013-14 NOVEMBER 2013 Every Rotarian joins Rotary for his or her own reasons. Often, the reason someone decides to join isn't the same as the reason that person ultimately decides to stay. When I was asked to join Rotary, I accepted because I thought it would be a good way to get more involved in my community. In the end, though, what really got me excited about Rotary service was something I didn't even know about when I joined: our Rotary Foundation. I knew I could do plenty of good work through my Rotary club in Norman, Okla., USA. But through our Foundation, I could have a hand in the work of every single Rotary club and district around the world. I could look at any Foundation-supported project, any Foundation...
