	Michael Gwyl Bevan
		Born in Canberra, Bevan made his first-class debut in 1989-90 in South Australian colours (hitting a thrilling century in his very first innings) before the completion of a 12-month stint at the Australian Cricket Academy led to a move back to New South Wales the following year.

	EH.Net Encyclopedia: Fraternal Sickness Insurance
		In 1908, for example, when the IOOF, Manchester Unity, in New South Wales, Australia established central funds for sick and funeral benefits, the effect was to turn the lodges into "mere collection agencies." Participation in lodge affairs fell off, and members developed a more selfish attitude to claims.
		Thus in principle, the declining trend for IOOF sickness insurance could have been a by-product of social changes during the 1920s that were undermining the popularity of fraternal lodges (Dumenil, 1984; Brody, 1980; Carnes, 1989; Charles, 1993; Clawson, 1989; Rotundo, 1989; Burley, 1994; Tucker, 1990).
		In the new circumstances, the pressure on businessmen to promote welfare programs abated, and the membership of company-sponsored sick-benefit societies entered a flat trend.

		Other infected M cephalus were collected individually between 1984 and 1989 from the Clarence, Richmond and Hawkesbury Rivers and Tuggerah Lakes in New South Wales and from the Swan River in Western Australia.

		To help overcome the problems created by such barriers, changes are being made to the operation of the Murray mouth barrages (in the interest of the fish populations of the Coorong) and the locks on the lower reaches of the Murray (to facilitate and encourage fish migration upstream).
