title: The Portrayal of Maori offenders by the Media

authors: Farr, Heather Marama

abstract: In this study I examine the dominant discourses represented in the print and internet media reporting of offending by Maori.  The purpose of which is to analyse the dominant discourse and subject positions associated with offending by Maori.  Foucault Discourse Analysis was utilised whereby the data was collected through articles printed in the New Zealand Herald and the Dominion Post.  This study suggests that there are multiple and complex factors relating to Maori offending, whereby reporting about Maori offending is presented from a mainstream worldview.

title: Speed regulation of model railway controllers: A comparison of technologies

authors: Scott, Jonathan B.

abstract: In this manuscript the relative performance of a variety of model railway controllers is tested in real-world conditions. Model railway locomotives use permanent-magnet, brushed, dc motors. Series resistance in armature windings, brushes and the rail, and magnetic losses in the armature all contribute to non-ideal operation. This manifests most annoyingly as moment by moment variation in locomotive speed. The effect is more noticeable in smaller scales. It is more noticeable on vintage models. Speed regulation performance is compared for a number different controllers using different technologies. Some interesting conclusions are drawn.
