...provenance. "I think scientists will one day find," he says, that there's "sophisticated hydrographic knowledge" embedded in Aboriginal myth. Maggie Long, another Jaru painter, has popped into the arts center to chat to manager Meg Norling and catch up with other artists. As grinning barefoot toddlers tug at the visitor's clothes for attention, Long spreads a glowing acrylic painting on the floor. "This is where the star man came down," she says, her hand passing gently over a path of pink and yellow dots falling from a half-moon into the crater, which is viewed, as landscapes...

Sherri has androgen-insensitivity syndrome (AIS), a condition that affects prenatal development. All embryos start out with the rudiments of male and female reproductive systems. A sort of developmental tug-of-war ensues until, generally speaking, the male reproductive system predominates in XY fetuses and the female in XX fetuses. The external male genitalia will not take shape in an XY fetus, however, until after the embryonic testes form and begin to produce testosterone...
