The activity area of ten Varanus gouldii in Karrakatta Cemetery, Perth, Western Australia, was measured by daily locations obtained by telemetry, during the breeding season (October-December) in 1992. The mean size of activity area was 8.91 ha; activity area was positively correlated with body size. There were significant overlaps in activity areas and no evidence of territoriality for male or female V. gouldii. The animals often foraged in areas of dense leaf litter near the periphery of their activity area and retreated to burrows that were more centrally located.

The article reveals the question of using of the method of coaching in preparation of thestudents to the managerial activity in the sphere of preschool education in mountain areas. Thenecessity of preparation under the modern conditions of social-economic development ofmountain areas has been proved. The content of the article generalizes basic contradictionsbetween the necessity and reality. The definition of the main points of the research has been given.The attention is accentuated on the basic principles of management and on the notion "coaching"in the process of management of preschool education in mountain area. Coaching includespartnership, potential revealing, effectiveness. Methodology of coaching is based on the principlethat the person naturally is sufficiently talented and owns great potential, which isn't realizedfully. An important condition of this approach is valuable, respectful attitude of the participants ofpolylogue to one another. Basic theoretical regulations of the coaching approach have beendetermined. In the context of selection of teching technologies on the basis of coaching approach,the method "reflexive team" has been briefly revealed. It is determined that coaching is a style ofmanagement, transformed culture: if the authoritarian style is substituted into coaching, then thehierarchy changes from the support of blaming and ridiculing to the objective evaluation, all-handsactivity changes to strategic planning.Coaching approach will allow optimizing the structure of economic activity of a separatepreschool educational establishment. The attention is accentuated at the fact, that using coachingwith the students at the lessons as a style of management of preschool education, will let futuremanagers of preschool educational establishments to form the skills of behavior in criticalsituations of mountain area, to enrich their activity with the new means of performing, to developprofessional flexibility and mobility, to learn clearly to determine the goals and priorities of activityof preschool educational establishment.
Objective: To estimate variation between small areas in the levels of walking, cycling, jogging, and swimming and overall physical activity and the importance of area level socioeconomic disadvantage in predicting physical activity participation. Methods: All census collector districts (CCDs) in the 20 innermost local government areas in metropolitan Melbourne, Australia, were identified and ranked by the percentage of low income households (,$400/ week) living in the CCD. Fifty CCDs were randomly selected from the least, middle, and most disadvantaged septiles of the ranked CCDs and 2349 residents (58.7% participation rate) participated in a cross sectional postal survey about physical activity. Multilevel logistic regression (adjusted for extrabinomial variation) was used to estimate area level variation in walking, cycling, jogging, and swimming and in overall physical activity participation, and the importance of area level socioeconomic disadvantage in predicting physical activity participation. Results: There were significant variations between CCDs in all activities and in overall physical participation in age and sex adjusted models; however, after adjustment for individual SES (income, occupation, education) and area level socioeconomic disadvantage, significant differences remained only for walking (p = 0.004), cycling (p = 0.003), and swimming (p = 0.024). Living in the most socioeconomically disadvantaged areas was associated with a decreased likelihood of jogging and of having overall physical activity levels that were sufficiently active for health; these effects remained after adjustment for individual socioeconomic status (sufficiently active: OR 0.70, 95% CI 0.55 to 0.90 and jogging: OR= 0.69, 95% CI 0.51 to 0.94). Conclusion: These research findings support the need to focus on improving local environments to increase physical activity participation.

Deeper knowledge of students priorityof moral, aesthetic, civic values of people from mountain terrain and features of the landscape,climate, flora and fauna of mountain environment will help them develop their future careers,which is to foster harmonious child in primary school environment.
Over the last few decades a variety of geoarchaeological methods and ethnoarchaeological and experimental approaches have demonstrated the fundamental importance of animal dung deposits for reconstructing past human life-ways. Through simultaneous examination in micromorphological thin-section and integrated phytolith and faecal spherulite analyses, this study provides direct evidence for animal management and organisation of space at Neolithic Çatalhöyük by examining livestock penning deposits across the settlement. The identification of new extensive areas of penning distributed within the boundaries of the early occupation of the site suggests greater proximity to and management of herds immediately prior to a phase of settlement expansion, access to wider networks and resources, and increased exploitation of the wider landscape. Phytolith assemblages from in situ dung accumulations also provide new insights into foddering/grazing practices showing highly variable herbivorous regimes, including both dicotyledonous and grass-based diets with an important proportion of grasses used as fodder and/or grazing during the early occupation of Çatalhöyük. This study provides direct evidence of the proximity of humans and herds, continuity and change in animal management strategies and farming practices, and concepts of space at the site. ; The study was carried out within the framework of the Çatalhöyük Research Project, the John Templeton Foundation Grant Consciousness and Creativity and the Dawn of Settled Life: The Test-case of Çatalhöyük (award No 52003), and EU Horizon 2020 MICROARCHEODUNG project. This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No H2020-MSCA-IF-2015-702529. ; Peer reviewed
This article draws on and adds to the criminological debate surrounding the link between crime and immediate environmental conditions. The article describes and offers analysis of a piece of research conducted by one of the authors in Colne, a small town in Lancashire, England, which sought to examine the propositon that people who reside in a certain locality are more prone to engage in criminal activity. From analysis of press reports of criminal activity, we can see that the incidence of crime moved, during a period of years, from one area of the town to another. The arficle provides an explanation of why this happened and offers comment on the overall issue.
