Cherbourg State School in historical context.
Cherbourg State School is some 300 kilometres northwest of Brisbane. It is situated in an Aboriginal community at Cherbourg with approximately 250 students, all of whom are Indigenous Australian children. Cherbourg State School aims to generate good academic outcomes for its students from kindergarten to Year 7 and nurture a strong and positive sense of what it means to be Aboriginal in today's society. In a context where the community continues to grapple with many social issues born of the historical processes of dispossession and disempowerment, Cherbourg State School is determined that its children can and will learn to become 'Strong and Smart'. It is a journey that has been charted by Chris Sarra, the school's first Aboriginal principal, in his paper Young and Black and Deadly: Strategies for Improving Outcomes for Indigenous Students, which describes how pride and expectations were engendered in the school over a four-year period from 1998. In this article the author discusses the historical context of the school and its impact on the Indigenous people of Cherbourg. The aim is to consider the historical, political, social and cultural context around the creation of Cherbourg State School. The author critically examines the historical records of the role of the State Government and the white settlers in the setting up and creation of the Aboriginal Reserve and later the primary school. Throughout the author addresses an absence � a voice missing from history � the voice of the Aboriginal people. This exercise in collective memory was designed to provide an opportunity for those who have seldom been given the opportunity to tell their story. Instead of the official view of Cherbourg School it provides a narrative which restores the victims of history to a place of dignity and indeed humanity

Les leçons de la crise financière mondiale
Dr. Janis Sarra, Professeur à l’Université de Colombie Britannique, Canada Les leçons de la crise financière mondiale La crise financière mondiale a entraîné des préjudices sans précédent pour des millions de personnes qui ont perdu leur épargne, leur entreprise, leur emploi et leur foyer. Les conséquences de la crise financière sont nombreuses ; ici je me concentrerai sur deux des enseignements à en tirer. Le premier est que les « chiffres » à eux seuls ne suffisent pas à circonscrire le r..

Ius sive natura? Neurolaw e naturalizzazione del diritto
Il neurolaw è una delle forme in cui si manifesta la tendenza a produrre una completa naturalizzazione dell'uomo, tendenza che trova nelle neuroscienze uno strumento di penetrazione formidabile. Studiosi di varia estrazione sostengono la tesi che la possibilità che si diano istituti giuridici o il diritto stesso sia il portato del processo evolutivo e del conseguente codificarsi e sedimentarsi nel cervello umano dei principi giuridici fondamentali. Il saggio esamina criticamente questa prospettiva, utilizzando gli studi sulla struttura della coscienza prodotti da alcuni insigni neuroscienziati

Yield prediction in agriculture a comparison between regression kriging and random forest
Crop yield forecasting plays a crucial role in farming planning and management, international food trade, ecosystem sustainability, and so on. There are many factors that have an influence on crop yield, such as plantation area, efficiency of irrigation systems, variations in rainfall and temperature, quality of crop seeds, topographic attributes, soil quality and fertilisation, and disease occurrence.
In the recent years, many researches support that data mining techniques algorithms can be profitable applied to a wide range of agriculture problems and, in particular, to have reasonable crop yield predictions.
The aim of this chapter to compare the potentiality of two hybrid spatial interpolation techniques for the spatial estimation of the crop yield: regression kriging (RK) and random forest (RF). As a case study, we interpolated the winter wheat yields in the Southern U.S. Great Plains
