AbstractThe history of remote school education in the Northern Territory can best be summarised as years of lost opportunities, pedagogies of discrimination, and diminished lives for those parents and children who trusted and responded to the government’s invitation to come to school. From late 2001 to 2005 historic educational change occurred in the remote Community Education Centre of Kalkaringi and Daguragu in the Northern Territory, the site for the delivery of the Northern Territory’s first Year 12 Indigenous graduates studying in their own community school. At the heart of the historic achievement was a radical change in thinking about education for Indigenous students. This paper discusses some of the policy parameters and educational circumstances that prevented significant change in the delivery model of education for the Community Education Centres in addition to a conceptualisation of how that school circumvented the policy parameters and instituted real change from the ground up. The paper examines, through a critical lens, the nature of the culture change that was crafted and built upon within Kalkaringi School and its communities, despite an initial and significant sense of powerlessness felt by families and to some extent the teachers and principal within the school. Through the development and embrace of a metaphor of possibility and hope - the challenge of climbing the educational mountain formed the foundation for a dedicated and committed enactment of an equitable educational entitlement for remote Indigenous students.

Lyman et al.’s recent history of graphic depictions of culture change attributes the first use of bar graphs to James Ford in 1935. Ford, though, was anticipated in 1915 by Frederick Sterns, working with pottery from 27 late prehistoric Nebraska phase lodge sites in eastern Nebraska. Sterns used both tabular data summaries and divided bar graphs to show ordered variation over space in vessel neck diameter, types of appendages, and type of decoration. Underlying this analysis was a conception of these dimensions as varying independently of one another. Geographic groups within the Nebraska phase therefore exhibit clinal variation and can be characterized by differing proportions of attributes. Sterns’s work never became very well-known as archaeologists on the Central Plains turned to typological analysis for organizing pottery assemblages.

Radio Frequencies

The problem of radio frequency distribution is considered in the article, taking into account the regulations and geographical location of the operating units. The problem of assigning radio frequencies from among those assigned for corporate use is studied. Using conformal mapping, it was substantiated that any territory can be divided into zones, each of which will have a border with only three other zones. In this case, in each zone, you can assign frequencies in the amount of one quarter of the total number of available frequencies that do not overlap with frequencies assigned to adjacent zones. A mathematical model of the problem of radio frequency redistribution has been built, taking into account the regulations and the geographical location of the units. The implementation of algorithm allows taking into account the history of frequency distribution by zones, which allows you to completely update the used radio frequencies for a new period of operation. A software module has been compiled that generates frequencies at random from those available for assigning corporate use for each zone. The software module allows fast and frequent reallocation of frequencies by zones, thereby ensuring the safety, reliability and stability of communication between organizational units.

Open Question

Bacteria and Archaea represent the base of the evolutionary tree of life and contain the vast majority of phylogenetic and functional diversity. Because these organisms and their traits directly impact ecosystems and human health, a focus on functional traits has become increasingly common in microbial ecology. These trait-based approaches have the potential to link microbial communities and their ecological function. But an open question is how, why, and in what order microorganisms acquired the traits we observe in the present day. To address this, we reconstructed the evolutionary history of microbial traits using genomic data to understand the evolution, selective advantage, and similarity of traits in extant organisms and provide insights into the composition of genomes and communities. We used the geological timeline and physiological expectations to provide independent evidence in support of this evolutionary history. Using this reconstructed evolutionary history, we explored hypotheses related to the composition of genomes. We showed that gene transition rates can be used to make predictions about the size and type of genes in a genome: generalist genomes comprise many evolutionarily labile genes while specialist genomes comprise more highly conserved functional genes. These findings suggest that generalist organisms do not build up and hoard an array of functions, but rather tend to experiment with functions related to environmental sensing, transport, and complex resource degradation. Our results provide a framework for understanding the evolutionary history of extant microorganisms, the origin and maintenanceof traits, and linking evolutionary relatedness and ecological function.

We report new results for the topographic evolution of the eastern flank of the South-Central Andes at ~35 S latitude. Our work is based on a piggy-back basin near Malargu&#776;e, Argentina, which provides a continuous stratigraphic record from 55 to 10 Ma. We have separated volcanic glass and measured hydrogen isotopes (&#948;D) from 107 samples. Studies over the last several decades show that volcanic glass will take up precipitation water by hydration on a 1 to 10 ka time scale. This reaction is irreversible, and later diffusive exchange is too slow to alter the initial isotopic composition. Thus, we conclude that our data provide a record of the isotopic composition of precipitation for most of the Cenozoic. Empirical and theoretical work indicate that the isotopic composition of precipitation decreases in a linear fashion with increasing orographic lifting. We have calibrated this relationship by isotopic modeling of modern water isotopes (152 samples) at 35 S across Chile and Argentina, and that work indicates a lifting relationship for precipitation &#948;D ~20&#8240;/km.Our glass isotope record shows a steady decrease in &#948;D through the Cenozoic, which matches well with the isotopic response predicted for global cooling at that time. After correction for this climate effect, our glass isotope record indicates that the Marlargu&#776;e region had a steady elevation from 55 to 20 Ma, and then was subjected to a cycle of 1 km of subsidence and an equivalent amount of rebound, between 20 to 0 Ma.&#160;Ongoing geodynamic modeling provides independent evidence of a large subsidence event in this region of South America as determined from the history of slab age and subduction velocity, both constrained by plate kinematics. This dynamic subsidence would have affected both the Andes and the eastern &#8220;retroarc&#8221; basin. Previous workers have viewed the subsidence history of the retroarc basin as providing a diagnostic record of the growth and decay of orogenic topography, but our work shows that subduction-induced dynamic topography can produce effects of similar magnitude.
