Determinants of road traffic safety: new evidence from Australia using state-space analysis
No full textThis paper examines the determinants of road traffic crash fatalities in Queensland for the period 1958-2007 using a state-space time-series model. In particular, we investigate the effects of policies that aimed to reduce drink-driving on traffic fatalities, as well as indicators of the economic environment that may affect exposure to traffic, and hence affect the number of accidents and fatalities. The results show that the introduction of a random breath testing program in 1988 was associated with a 11.3% reduction in traffic fatalities; its expansion in 1998 was associated with a 26.2% reduction in traffic fatalities; and the effect of the "Safe4life" program, which was introduced in 2004, was a 14.3% reduction in traffic fatalities. Reductions in economic activity are also associated with reductions in road fatalities: we estimate that a one percent increase in the unemployment rate is associated with a 0.2% reduction in traffic fatalities

Le Baume du Chevalier de St-Victor alias le Baume du Commandeur de Pernes
No full textThe « Baume du Chevalier de St-Victor » otherwise the « Baume du Commandeur de Pernes »
The « Baume du Commandeur de Pernes » was studied in 1929 and the « Commandeur » identified by M. Bouvet ; the origin of its synonym introduced by N. Lémery (1715), i.e. the « Baume du Chevalier de St-Victor » had not been elucidated up to now.
The author's proposals, based upon genealogical data, are the following : two brothers « Chevalier de St-Victor » were enrolled in the Order of Malta in 1624 at St Gilles (Languedoc) ; one of them was able to transmit the Balm's formula to N. Lémery during his stay in Montpellier between 1668 and 1671. The geographically very different origins of the Commander and the Knight should prove perhaps that a basic pharmaceutical formulary common at least to all the French « Commanderies » was existing at that time. In the other hand, the fluctuations of the formula since the XVIIth century have been reported.Le « Baume du Commandeur de Pernes » a été étudié en 1929 et le « Commandeur » identifié par M. Bouvet ; l'origine de son synonyme chez N. Lémery (1715), à savoir le Baume du Chevalier de St-Victor, n'avait pas été élucidée jusqu'à ce jour. L'auteur propose la solution suivante à ce problème en se fondant sur des données généalogiques : il s'agirait d'un Chevalier de St-Victor recruté dans l'ordre de Malte en 1624 à St-Gilles en Languedoc, qui aurait transmis la formule du Baume à N. Lémery lors de son séjour à Montpellier entre 1668 et 1671. Les origines géographiquement très différentes du Commandeur et du Chevalier tendraient à prouver qu'il existait à cette époque un formulaire pharmaceutique de base commun au moins aux Commanderies françaises de l'ordre de Malte. D'autre part, les fluctuations de la formule depuis le XVIIe siècle sont rapportées.Storck Jacques. Le Baume du Chevalier de St-Victor alias le Baume du Commandeur de Pernes.

Dear Jacques ... Lecoq in the twenty first century
No full textThis essay considers Jacques Lecoq's influence almost 20 years after his death. Arguing that Lecoq's pedagogy is largely as relevant today as it was when he was still alive, the author speculates whether Lecoq would have welcomed developments in the use of digital technology within live performance. The essay proposes that much of Lecoq's teaching with its emphasis on play, complicite, invention, imagination and the creative actor remains relevant to contemporary developments in site-specific, immersive and postdramatic theatre. The essay is constructed in the form of a posthumous letter to Jacques Lecoq
Essai de vulgarisation des homélies métriques de Jacques de Saroug
No full textIn this series of articles originally published in Revue de l’Orient Chrétien from 1912-1914, Babakhan aimed to popularize the work of Jacob of Sarug, a large collection of whose homilies had recently appeared in the monumental edition of Paul Bedjan. Babakhan gives, with very brief introductions, rhymed French translations of five of Jacob’s homilies, namely, Bedjan’s nos. 2 (on the descent of the most high on Mount Sinai, and the symbol of the Church), 95 (on the decapitation of John the Baptist), 99 (on the Apostle Thomas), 103 (on the love of money), and 194 (on the end of the world, and marriage), with some parts omitted. This French translation may still serve as a vehicle of introduction to Jacob’s poetry, much of which remains untranslated
Da ideia de infância em Jean-Jacques Rousseau ou do "sono da razão"
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro de Ciencias da Educação. Programa de Pós-Graduação em EducaçãoOs pensamentos expostos no século XVIII pelo genebrino Jean-Jacques Rousseau influenciaram de maneira decisiva a forma como o Ocidente passou a perceber a infância. Este autor provocou uma verdadeira divisão de águas ao publicar Emílio ou Da Educação (1762). Com este feito, mais que balançar os alicerces educacionais da época, ele delega à criança um lugar no mundo. A infância passa a ter um valor em si mesma, e a ser vista como etapa fundamental na constituição humana. Ao destacar este período da vida, além de romper definitivamente com o que vigorava em seu tempo, no qual a criança era tida como um erro passageiro - um infante (aquele que não fala); um "adulto em miniatura"; ou mero objeto de paparicação e prazer - Jean-Jacques cria uma ótica inovadora de conceber a criança. Dizia que: "A natureza quer que as crianças sejam crianças antes de serem homens." Ao elaborar um conceito de infância, Rousseau afirma que "a infância é o sono da razão". O que nos surpreende devido este autor ter vivido em pleno "Século das Luzes", justamente quando a razão era evocada como o guia seguro para o pensamento e para ação em todas as idades. Ao contrário do que possa parecer, Rousseau não desmerece o período infantil, associando-o à escuridão ou a inferioridade primeira da humanidade. Ele é considerado o "inventor da infância". Retomar pensamentos que versam sobre essas ideias rousseaunianas, inaugurais da concepção moderna de Infância, por meio de pesquisa teórica, é o objetivo traçado aqui, com intuito de avançar nas compreensões estabelecidas em torno das contribuições de Jean-Jacques Rousseau para temática em exame.The thoughts exposed in the eighteenth century by the genevan, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, influenced in a decisive way the West has to realize his childhood. This author has caused a real division of the waters or publish Emile, or On Education (1762). With this done more than shake the foundations of educational time, it leaves the child a place in the world. The child is given a value in itself, and be seen as key step in the human constitution. By highlighting this period of life, and the final break with that which prevailed in his time, in which the child was seen as a mistake passenger - an infant (who does not speak), a "miniature adult" or mere object of pampering and pleasure - Jean-Jacques creates a new perspective to conceive a child. He said: "Nature wants children to be children before being men." In developing a concept of childhood, Rousseau says that "childhood is the sleep of reason". What surprises us because this author has lived in the middle of "Age of Enlightenment", just when the reason was mentioned as the sure guide for thought and action in all ages. Contrary to what may seem, Rousseau does not diminish the infantile period, associating him to the darkness or the inferiority of humanity first. He is considered the "inventor of childhood." Resume thoughts that talk about these ideas Rousseau, the inaugural modern conception of childhood, through theoretical research, stroke is the goal here, with the aim to advance the understandings established around the contributions of Jean-Jacques Rousseau to thematic examination
