Earle is spot on for Wood

Earle is spot on for Wood

UHL Hellenic League Hartpury Uni 0 Shortwood 1 Chris Earle’s late penalty preserved table-topping Shortwood United’s unbeaten start to the season at much-fancied Hartpury University, writes Jim Cunneen. Wood made a bright start and an Earle cross was inches too high for Luke Soule and then the wide man was inches wide with a shot. After 17 minutes Ellis – Clark drove a powerful shot straight at…

ExplORE the world, one fact at a time

The beauty and mystery of our world is continuously being uncovered by curious, enterprising individuals. As more research arises, only more questions follow. Below are some fascinating facts about various regions of our planet, taken from our Oxford Research Encyclopedias:

1. The Mississippi River in the United States is the longest in North America, and is actually two rivers geophysically. - “Environmental History of the Mississippi River and Delta” by Christopher Morris in the ORE of Environmental Science.

2. The Andres mountain range that runs through the continent of South America is home to more than 70% of the world’s tropical glaciers. - “Climate Change Communication in Peru” by Bruno Takahashi and Alejandra Martinez in the ORE of Climate Science.

3. There are about 7,000 languages spoken in the world today, with about 2,000 coming from two continents: Asia and Africa. -“Languages of the World” by William R. Leben in the ORE of Linguistics.

4. Author Zora Neale Hurston was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship to go to Jamaica and Haiti to collect material on religious practices, and spent much of 1936-1937 on those islands. -“Zora Neale Hurston,” by Susan Butterworth in the ORE of Literature.

5. Facebook and vigilantism continue to grow: a Facebook group in the regional city of Townsville, Queensland, known as Townsville Crime, Alerts, & Discussions (TCAD) has over 46,000 members, in a city with a residential population of approximately 190,000. -“Social Media, Vigilantism and Indigenous People in Australia” by Chris Cunneen and Sophie Russell in the ORE of Criminology and Criminal Justice.

6. The evolution of international organizations (IOs) first started with the Congress of Vienna (1814–15), which set in motion a series of innovations, inventions, and learning processes, shaping the core of what we now call IOs. - “The Evolution of International Organization as Institutional Forms and Historical Processes to 1945” by Bob Reinalda in the ORE of International Studies.

Indigenous Peoples and Criminal Justice in Australia

(In Deckert, A. and Sarre, R. (eds) The Palgrave Handbook of Australian and New Zealand Criminology, Crime and Justice, Palgrave Macmillan, Basingstoke, ISBN 9783319557465, pp 667-682 (2017)) on SSRN. Here is the abstract:

  The authors of this chapter contextualise crime and criminal justice within Australian colonial history. They map the development of Aboriginal criminology in Australia and cover key themes that have disproportionately affected Indigenous peoples such as over-policing, lack of access to justice in the neoliberal context, incarceration, and deaths in custody. Finally, the authors reflect on Indigenous experiences of criminal justice, and various processes that challenge contemporary justice interventions, including Indigenous courts, night patrols, and community justice initiatives. The authors conclude by considering the possibilities of an Indigenous criminology.
