This paper describes a rock engraving site in Mithaka Country in the Channel Country, southwest Queensland, where the majority of the motifs consist of crescents or variations on crescents. This is ...the first rock art site to be recorded in Mithaka Country, which is in a part of Australia's sandy deserts where rock art is uncommon.
Gilparrka Almira is placed within a broader social context by exploring its possible cultural connections with other sites and regions. Regional comparisons of the main motif type found that proportions decreased in all directions away from the site. Possible meanings for crescent imagery are then examined from ethnohistorical sources, indicating that crescent motifs may bear a range of “discontinuous” meanings that can be used in different contexts. It is suggested that crescent motifs may have moved/diffused across vast areas of the continent, following the north‐south Lake Eyre Basin trade network, with Mithaka Country lying at its approximate centre, and other (east‐west) trade routes, along the Dreaming tracks with which the trade routes are frequently associated. Motifs with “discontinuous” meaning ranges, like crescents, would have been particularly suitable for use in this scenario because of their ability to be readily incorporated into different social contexts.
RÉSUMÉ
L'article décrit un site de gravures rupestres dans la région Mithaka (Pays Channel), dans le sud‐ouest du Queensland, où la plupart des motifs sont des croissants ou des variations. C'est le premier site d'art rupestre enregistré dans la region Mithaka, qui se trouve dans une partie des déserts sableux d'Australie où l'art rupestre est rare.
Gilparrka Almira est placé dans un context social plus large à travers une exploration de ses connections culturelles possibles avec d'autres sites et d'autres régions. Des comparaisons régionales du motif principal ont constaté qu'il diminue en importance dans toutes les directions en partant du site. Ensuite l'article examine les interprétations possibles des images de croissant, sur la base de sources ethnohistoriques, et conclue que ce motif peut avoir une gamme de significations “discontinues” qui sont utilisables dans des contextes différents. On suggère que les motifs en croissant ont pu voyager / être diffusés à travers de vastes régions du continent, en suivant le réseau d'échanges nord‐sud du Bassin du Lac Eyre, avec le Pays Mithaka au centre approximatif, et d'autres routes d'échanges (est‐ouest) le long des “Pistes de Rêve” avec lesquelles elles sont souvent associées. Des motifs avec des gammes “discontinues” de signification, comme les croissants, auraient été particulièrement appropriés pour ce scénario, car c'est facile de les incorporer dans des contextes sociaux différents.
American female
psychologists who contributed to the development of industrial and organizational (I/O)
psychology during the early years are presented. An overview of the education,
scholarship, ...practice, and professional service activities is provided for 4 pioneers
(Marion Almira Bills, Elsie Oschrin Bregman, Lillian Moller Gilbreth, and Mary Holmes
Stevens Hayes). These early female I/O psychologists blended research, applications of
psychology, and service in ways that prefigure current science and practice within the
field. Incorporating women into the history of I/O psychology is imperative to the
attainment of a more complete understanding of the past and a fuller comprehension of the
present. In addition, lessons for current and future I/O psychologists are ascertained
from the accomplishments of these pioneers.
Valentin Inzko Yes, there have been many problems. I would say that the ambassadors, that is, the PIC members, were more frustrated than ever. We discussed the Sejdic-Finci case European Court of ...Human Rights ruling on Bosnian political minorities' political rights, the Constitutional Court, which passed its decisions in more than 35 cases but they have not been implemented, the military property, the five plus two agenda, the Mostar issue, the rhetoric, the Federation crisis, and so on. So, the problems have piled up, and the ambassadors' disappointment and frustration were greater than ever. Inzko The international community still supports the principle that the local politicians should be the ones resolving these problems. If we asked a woman, a mother, what she does the whole day long, she would say that she resolves problems. A renowned philosopher, who was born Austrian, but died British, Sir Charles Popper, said: life is problem solving. We could also say that politics is problem solving. If we consider how the politicians here have been solving problems, I would have to say that everyone is disappointed. Perhaps it is better at the local level, because the mayors have been closer to citizens. But, if you look at the higher level government, and if you consider what has been going on in the neighbourhood, because Serbia and Kosovo have reached an agreement, and they had a big problem, and if we compare the Sejdic-Finci ruling, or the Mostar issue with Serbia and Kosovo, these are much smaller problems, but they have not been resolved. So, we can see exactly where the problem is. Serbia and Kosovo wanted to resolve their issues, but here this does not seem to be the case.

Let's wait for them for two years to see which of them will flourish, Yudhoyono said when he planted one of the trees. Besides the president, representatives of the newsmen also planted about 10 ...casuarina trees together with Minister/State Secretary Sudi Silalahi and Cabinet Secretary Dipo Alam.
