Crash Course World History is now available on DVD! Visit http://store.dftba.com/products/crashcourse-world-history-the-complete-series-dvd-set to buy a set for your home or classroom.

In which John Green teaches you about World War II, aka The Great Patriotic War, aka The Big One. So how did this war happen? And what does it mean? We’ve all learned the facts about World War II many times over, thanks to repeated classroom coverage, the History channel, and your grandfather (or maybe great-grandfather) showing you that Nazi bayonet he used to keep in his sock drawer and telling you a bunch of age-inappropriate stories about his harrowing war experiences. So, why did the Axis powers think forceful expansion was a good idea? (they were hungry). So why did this thing shake out in favor of the Allies? HInt: it has to do with the fact that it was a world war. Germany and Japan made some pretty serious strategic errors, such as invading Russia and attacking the United States, and those errors meant that pretty much the whole world was against them. So, find out how this worldwide alliance came together to stop the Axis expansion. All this, plus Canada finally gets the respectful treatment it deserves. Oh, and a warning: there are a few graphic images in this episode. Sensitive viewers may want to use caution, especially around the 9:15 mark.

QAAFI Science Seminar – 7 April 2015

Presented by Dr Andries Potgieter
Research Fellow, QAAFI Centre for Plant Science

ABSTRACT

Since early settlement, the existence of most rural communities in Australia has depended on agriculture. Dry land cropping has been one of the main activities contributing towards the long-term viability and sustainability of these communities. This is still true today. However, the operating environment of producers has become more challenging. Food producers are increasingly exposed to variability and change in world markets, commodity prices and climate, thus increasing their vulnerability and threatening their livelihoods. Advance knowledge of the associated risk in crop production, however, can mitigate some of the impacts of such factors. Hence, easily accessible, near real-time, objective and accurate crop production information is becoming increasingly valuable in decision-making for agricultural industry and government agencies. To date, industry and crop forecasters have had a good idea of the potential crop yield for a specific season, but advance, accurate, timely and objective information on crop area for a shire or region has been mostly unavailable. Here we present a holistic approach to bridging the information gap, which is exacerbated by the lack of accurate and timely information and a projected increase in market and climate volatility within Australia and globally. In addition, the integration of remote sensing technologies in assessing food security is also discussed.

About Dr Andries Potgieter

Dr Potgieter holds a Bachelor of Science, Honours and Master’s degrees in Mathematical Statistics and a PhD specialising in remote sensing. He has more than 24 years of experience in predictive biophysical spatial modelling systems. He is currently a Research Fellow at the University of Queensland, Australia.

His main research interest is in the complex integration of spatial production modelling, climate forecasting and remotely sensed systems at a regional scale. In particular, his interest targets agricultural research that enhances the profitability and sustainability of spatial production systems through a better understanding of the linkages and interactions of such systems across a range of spatial (e.g. field, farm, catchment, national), and temporal (i.e. seasons to decades) scales.

“Today’s hearing considers yet another bill to allow more air pollution, more asthma, and more heart attacks. And once again, it’s a bait and switch. The bill’s sponsors say the legislation is narrowly targeted to help farmers. In fact, the bill is drafted broadly and has sweeping anti-environment effects. We are going to hear today that we must pass H.R. 1633 to stop EPA from regulating farming. This isn’t just nonsense. It’s pure fantasy.” – Ranking Member Waxman

“I’m not a scientist and actually given what I’ve seen of scientists in my experiences following the global warming scam, I’m glad I’m not a scientist because a lot of these guys are basically shysters and crooks. They’re not some kind of white-coated elite with a special hotline to the truth. In fact, they’re just ordinary guys and girls trying to earn a living like the rest of us but slightly more dodgily than the rest of us in the one or two egregious cases,” James Delingpole of Ricochet.com, the UK Spectator and the executive editor the newly launched Breitbart London, tells me in our latest interview. And that’s one of the kinder things that the author of The Little Green Book of Eco-Fascism: The Left’s Plan to Frighten Your Kids, Drive Up Energy Costs, and Hike Your Taxes has to say on the subject. He’ll also discuss:

● If Mark Steyn loses his lawsuit to Michael Mann, who gets the top bunk in their cell at the Global Warming Stalag, James or Mark?

● The concept of the “Friendly Lawsuit,” and how it helps to explain that left is nothing but Potemkin Villages, all the way down.

● Prying open “The Drawbridge Effect” to see what’s inside Al Gore and Thomas Friedman’s mansions.

● How can the media alternately tell us the world is coming to an end in five years, then cheerfully promote high-carbon pro-sports, such as the NFL and NASCAR?

● The background behind the big “Climategate” scandal of 2009, and where it stands today.

● How James discovered both American politics and joined the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

Birdsville Cemetery Queensland Australia
Despite visiting far-flung places, and travelling long distances, we still make time to check out memorials and graves in some remote communities.

Birdsville has a small cemetery which was in need of much TLC when we visited. There are stones for early European settlers as well as some memorials to members of the local Aboriginal community. I am not sure of the cultural correctness of publishing these transcriptions and our local Aboriginal Cultural Centre and Keeping Place was unable to advise me. If you think they should be removed then please let me know.

Akawilyika Maude Naylon, Born Simpson Desert 1887, died 1980, Fluent in four Aboriginal languages.

A much respected Wangkanguru man, Jimmy Naylon Arpilindika, Born Simpson Desert 1883, died Birdsville 1963, Beloved husband of Elizabeth Karatjani , father of Tom, Clara, Dora, Linda, Bob.
