In the mid-1830s, government surveyor Robert Hoddle trudged around much of our region mapping property boundaries. Hoddle also fancied himself as an artist and painted several scenes of his surroundings, especially along watercourses.

 

However, as Hoddle often exercised a healthy dose of artistic license in his trademark watercolours, some of the landscapes depicted in his art are more recognisable than others.

 

One painting that has puzzled landscape architects and art aficionados for decades is his dramatic watercolour of the Ginninderra Creek titled, Ginninderry [i.e. Ginninderra] Plains, New South Wales.

How does physical activity help your mind?

Immediate results - If you take a short, brisk walk you may feel more refreshed and relaxed. You may also find this benefit will help motivate you to walk more often and for longer.

Improved wellbeing - Being active can help ease anxiety and depression, especially when done in natural environments like parks and gardens. You may find yourself feeling happier, more confident, and sleeping better.

​More opportunities to socialise - Being physically active is a great way to connect with others and build a sense of community. As you participate in more activities and exercise you might find yourself socialising more often with friends and family or perhaps joining an exercise class or sports team.

Where to Now for the Bushfire Inquiries?

 

The catastrophic bushfires of 2019/20 in eastern Australia are likely to be repeated with greater severity, as south-east Australia becomes hotter and drier, and dynamic fire propagation becomes more frequent. The various Bushfire Inquiries will, no doubt, recommend changes to fire-fighting, fuel reduction and building practices which have, in the past, been based on common steady-state forest fire behaviour. When bushfires become powerful enough to generate their own weather systems, however, little can be done to stop them.

 

The best solution is improved planning practice and bushfire design standards which take account of the latest bushfire behaviour research to locate new residential developments away from possibly indefensible locations, using a precautionary approach. As our cities grow, new suburbs on the urban fringe are increasingly built in areas where fire is an existential threat, as people optimistically choose to live near the bush, unaware of the increasing likelihood of extreme fires.

 

An example is the Ginninderry-Parkwood Development on the ACT/Yass shire boundary, between the Murrumbidgee River and Ginninderra Creek. This area has steep slopes to its north-west, an ideal site for dynamic bushfire propagation, resulting in wide-ranging ember attack driven by the north-westerly prevailing winds. This has been demonstrated by extreme bushfire behaviour expert, Professor Jason Sharples, and colleagues who, using modelling theory, found ember loads were 13-115 times higher in the Ginninderry area when compared with those for a known 2015 fire on the Mornington Peninsula where 32 houses were damaged all as a result of embers. In a geographic setting similar to Ginninderry, 100 structures were damaged in the Tathra fire of 2018. Ember attack or spotting is the main means of fire propagation in these cases.

The Ginninderry development complies with all current planning and bushfire regulations but these are likely to be inadequate for the bushfires of the future. If so, residents and firefighters may be unnecessarily endangered and the government might be held responsible, since the hazard was known when development was approved. Furthermore, where buffer zones are inadequate, demand by residents for more severe control burning on the steep slopes to protect housing from fires, or backburning in the event of a fire, would compromise the biodiversity values of the gorges of the Murrumbidgee and Ginninderra Creek and the associated fire-sensitive Black Cypress Pine forest, as well as threatened species like the Pale Pomaderris.

In cases like this, there is a conflict between revenue from land sales, the demand for housing blocks, and fire and environmental requirements. Consideration should be given to the extreme risks associated with dynamic fires near potential residential areas before rezoning occurs. Another significant consideration is the possibility that insurance companies will refuse to cover such areas or will make it too expensive to do so. In this situation, the burden will fall on the community as a whole, not on those who have benefited from the development.

Only counting movies I saw for the first time.

Faves: 6… tentatively.

Best documentary: The unbelievers!

Best non-documentary: The imitation game!

Göteborg International Film Festival movies: 8… A seemingly unavoidable consequence of reading about almost each of the 500 movies in the programme. %D (And I marked way more than 8.) Except… I no longer live in Gothenburg… This year I can only send for a programme, mark delicious movies, weep, and hope that I find them down the road. Of life. Er.

Fave! It has become very rare for me to fave a (non-documentary) film after only one viewing (or two… or 9000…), but I faved this before it was even over. It has… almost everything! :D (Including, but not limited to, Britishness, lolz, Aspie traits, feminism, nerd pride, gay pride, computers, that guy with the name that all the kids are going on about these days, god-stompin’, suicide, adorkability, and the best Oscar speech of 2015. ^_^ ) I went to see the movie because of my mild interest in computer history. (As I’ve said before, though I suck at computers I tend to like stories about them.) Within days, I became a Cumbercookie LIKE EVERYONE ELSE. o_O Then I dragged my mum along to my second viewing of "The imitation game", and she loved it too… and has rewatched it. Twice. She virtually never rewatches any movie even once. Anyway… It turned out I had already seen about five of Benedict’s movies (the first one being "Creation" in 2010!), but… I… kind of… sort of… otterly… failed to… remember him in them. *ERROR ERROR MEEEEEP BZZZZZZZZ BLAMMO* I was the last person in the world to get on that train. -_- Four or five "Sherlock" marathons: Check. "Hamlet": Check. :) :B :D xD

Known as the Nun of Kenmare, Margaret Anna Cusack was born in a house at the corner of Mercer Street and York Street in 1829. Recently the corner was renamed Cusack Corner.

 

Although she was honoured by Pope Leo XIII the Vatican, because of her work for women's liberation, ordered that her name be "effaced" as founder of the Order of St Joseph of Peace.

 

In 1888 she returned to the Anglican Communion after an dispute with her bishop and issued The Nun of Kenmare: An Autobiography the following year. She died on 5 June 1899, aged 70, and was buried in a Church of England-reserved burial site at Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, in England.

Slavutych is perhaps the youngest city in Ukraine. It was built to replace Pripyat, which became a ghost city after Chernobyl nuclear disaster in 1986. Currently it is the home to multinational science, engineer and construction personnel building a so called New Safe Confinement over the 4th reactor of the Chernobyl Power Plant. The construction is expected to be finished by the end of 2016 or in early 2017. After that most of its inhabitants will have to look for the job elsewhere and the city of Slavutych may repeat the destiny of Pripyat, becoming another ghost city.

 

86 film and urbanism festival was organized for a third time in Slavutych to draw attention to the urban and ecological problems, as well as to support Ukrainian cinematography.
