P.F. Alexander (ed), Alan Paton Selected Letters: Author, Poet, Teacher, Christian Thinker, Activist and Penal Reformer – A Full, but not Uncontroversial Life
This is a most useful and well-presented volume. As Phillips points out in his "Foreword", Paton (1903-1988) was not only the distinguished author of Cry the Beloved Country, but a school teacher, Christian thinker, organiser, political activist and penal reformer (p vii). This volume contains 350 letters of the 2 500 which survive. Paton was born in Pietermaritzburg and as a student at Natal University College, he began to write poetry. He also was President of the Student Representative Council. He became a teacher at Ixopo, married in 1928 and, after a serious illness in 1934, became a warden at an African reformatory in Diepkloof in what was then the Transvaal. Diepkloof had been an adult prison before being turned into a borstal for African youths. Paton worked to transform it into a school and the number of absconders fell dramatically. He felt passionately that his successes here could be applied to the country as a whole
Eastern Australian indigenous language centres - Collective action for community needs
The “Group”* is a confederation of Aboriginal language advocates from across Eastern Australia. They have elected to act as a 2-way conduit between government – both state and commonwealth and the many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and individuals who are currently working on the reclamation and maintenance of their languages. Currently the group is working in collaboration with national archival and acquisition institutions, national media organisations, labour organisations, state and commonwealth education and curriculum development agencies. In respect to its task of collaborating and representing the interests and needs of language centres, the group has facilitated state and national workshops with Aboriginal language centres. These have generated considerable discussion and agreement on a wide range of common concerns that focus on matters such as staffing, funding, training, relationships development and maintenance with government and community stakeholders and the promotion of Indigenous languages within an overwhelmingly monolingual environment.
This presentation will focus on a range of these concerns and outline the proactive role that the group has taken to address these issues with government, their agents, and communities themselves.

He has had extensive experience in schools, vocational education and universities before taking up his position at the Board in 2001. He was held positions in national, state and regional Indigenous organisations over many years. Over the last decade his work has focused on developing curriculum to teach both Aboriginal Studies and Aboriginal Languages. He has also worked with Aboriginal communities, schools and education systems across NSW to facilitate the development of quality educational projects that support effective school and community learning partnerships. He is currently a post-graduate doctoral student at Newcastle University.

Comparative assessment of the osteoconductive properties of different biomaterials in vivo seeded with human or ovine mesenchymal stem/stromal cells
Mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSC), when used in combination with biomaterial scaffolds, have been shown to contribute at varying efficiencies to bone and cartilage regeneration in preclinical large animal models and human clinical trials. In an orthopedic context, identification of the optimal scaffold, which is capable of inducing tissue regeneration, has been the subject of numerous studies. In the present study, we show that ex vivo-expanded MSC from human and ovine bone marrow display similar phenotypic properties, but exhibit differences in their ability to form bone in vivo when transplanted with different biocompatible scaffold composites. We found that the ovine MSC formed ectopic bone on all scaffolds tested with the exception of collagen-based demineralized bone matrix. In contrast, human MSC in general formed less bone and only on those biomaterials composed of ceramic particles containing at least 15% hydroxyapatite. This study demonstrates the differences in bone formation potential between human and ovine MSC in vivo based on the osteoconductive properties of different bioscaffolds currently being used for orthopedic clinical applications.Andrew C.W.

Electronic file in MP3 format. Available via the World Wide Web.David Paton provides a brief overview of the importance of maintaining environmental flows to the Murray Mouth for the maintenance of the Coorong and its biota. Concerned that the general public may be poorly informed through media reports that the Coorong is dying, Paton wrote a natural history of the region, At the End of the River: The Coorong and Lower Lakes, to inform the community about how the Coorong operates. Even in its current altered state, the Coorong still easily meets criteria for listing as a Wetland of International Importance, and importantly is recoverable and warrants an allocation of water
