Podcasts about Amberley

Concerns have been raised after the Department of Defence confirmed that thousands of Chinese-made electric vehicles are being stored on private land beside the RAAF base at Amberley. The founder of Strategic Analysis Australia, Michael Shoebridge, told Gary Hardgrave on 4BC Drive, "They're like a smartphone on wheels, and they're great for hoovering up information about the people in them." "Software connections mean that things that are stored and collected in the car can be transmitted back to the car manufacturer. And China has security agencies that can force their companies to cooperate with them and deny they're doing so." Shoebridge continued.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Everyone Is Protecting My Password, But Who Is Protecting My Toilet Paper? - Interview with Amberley Brady | AISA CyberCon Melbourne 2025 Coverage | On Location with Sean Martin and Marco CiappelliAISA CyberCon Melbourne | October 15-17, 2025Empty shelves trigger something primal in us now. We've lived through the panic, the uncertainty, the realization that our food supply isn't as secure as we thought. Amberley Brady hasn't forgotten that feeling, and she's turned it into action.Speaking with her from Florence to Sydney ahead of AISA CyberCon in Melbourne, I discovered someone who came to cybersecurity through an unexpected path—studying law, working in policy, but driven by a singular passion for food security. When COVID-19 hit Australia in 2019 and grocery store shelves emptied, Amberley couldn't shake the question: what happens if this keeps happening?Her answer was to build realfoodprice.com.au, a platform tracking food pricing transparency across Australia's supply chain. It's based on the Hungarian model, which within three months saved consumers 50 million euros simply by making prices visible from farmer to wholesaler to consumer. The markup disappeared almost overnight when transparency arrived."Once you demonstrate transparency along the supply chain, you see where the markup is," Amberley explained. She gave me an example that hit home: watermelon farmers were getting paid 40 cents per kilo while their production costs ran between $1.00 to $1.50. Meanwhile, consumers paid $2.50 to $2.99 year-round. Someone in the middle was profiting while farmers lost money on every harvest.But this isn't just about fair pricing—it's about critical infrastructure that nobody's protecting. Australia produces food for 70 million people, far more than its own population needs. That food moves through systems, across borders, through supply chains that depend entirely on technology most farmers never think about in cybersecurity terms.The new autonomous tractors collecting soil data? That information goes somewhere. The sensors monitoring crop conditions? Those connect to systems someone else controls. China recognized this vulnerability years ago—with 20% of the world's population but only 7% of arable land, they understood that food security is national security.At CyberCon, Amberley is presenting two sessions that challenge the cybersecurity community to expand their thinking. "Don't Outsource Your Thinking" tackles what she calls "complacency creep"—our growing trust in AI that makes us stop questioning, stop analyzing with our gut instinct. She argues for an Essential Nine in Australia's cybersecurity framework, adding the human firewall to the technical Essential Eight.Her second talk, cheekily titled "Everyone is Protecting My Password, But No One's Protecting My Toilet Paper," addresses food security directly. It's provocative, but that's the point. We saw what happened in Japan recently with the rice crisis—the same panic buying, the same distrust, the same empty shelves that COVID taught us to fear."We will run to the store," Amberley said. "That's going to be human behavior because we've lived through that time." And here's the cybersecurity angle: those panics can be manufactured. A fake image of empty shelves, an AI-generated video, strategic disinformation—all it takes is triggering that collective memory.Amberley describes herself as an early disruptor in the agritech cybersecurity space, and she's right. Most cybersecurity professionals think about hospitals, utilities, financial systems. They don't think about the autonomous vehicles in fields, the sensor networks in soil, the supply chain software moving food across continents.But she's starting the conversation, and CyberCon's audience—increasingly diverse, including people from HR, risk management, and policy—is ready for it. Because at the end of the day, everyone has to eat. And if we don't start thinking about the cyber vulnerabilities in how we grow, move, and price food, we're leaving our most basic need unprotected.AISA CyberCon Melbourne runs October 15-17, 2025 Virtual coverage provided by ITSPmagazineGUEST:Amberley Brady, Food Security & Cybersecurity Advocate, Founder of realfoodprice.com.au | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amberley-b-a62022353/HOSTS:Sean Martin, Co-Founder, ITSPmagazine and Studio C60 | Website: https://www.seanmartin.comMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder, ITSPmagazine and Studio C60 | Website: https://www.marcociappelli.comCatch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to share an Event Briefing as part of our event coverage?

The title of this episode is "Future Brunels? Learning from the Generation That Transformed the World." For my German listeners: this episode is a perfect complement to Episode 128. The first half of the 19th century was a time of remarkable transformation, with England as a major driving force behind changes that improved all aspects of our lives. In this episode, I explore the achievements of one key figure of this era, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, well-known in England but hardly recognized outside of it—a true shame. I'm confident you'll agree with me by the end of this episode. However, the purpose of this episode isn't just to travel back to the 19th century but to draw inspiration. What can we learn from this extraordinary generation of engineers and entrepreneurs for our time and the next generation?   Dr. Helen Doe is a historian, author, and lecturer. Her books range from maritime to RAF history. It is people, often the ordinary and sometimes unsung heroes and heroines, who attract her attention. She has published books on the economic and social aspects of Isambard Kingdom Brunel's great ships. The First Atlantic Liner featured the stories of the passengers and crew on Brunel's first ship, which linked Bristol, Liverpool, and New York. This was followed by a book on the SS Great Britain. She has appeared on many Radio 4 programmes and on TV. She is a Fellow of the University of Exeter, where she previously taught a range of courses and supervised postgraduates. She is a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society (FRHistS) and Chair of the British Commission for Maritime History. Helen was for many years a trustee of the SS Great Britain and, in 2018, was appointed as a member of the Council of Experts for National Historic Ships, a government advisory body. I personally became aware of Helen when I visited the extraordinary museum in Bristol that showcases Isambard Kingdom Brunel's second ship, the SS Great Britain. We will talk about this in our conversation. The UK offers a number of extraordinary museums. The aforementioned museum in Bristol is significant, but also important in terms of maritime history and definitely worth a visit is the museum in Portsmouth. We start the conversation with a discussion of the three most important ships of Brunel: the Great Western, the Great Britain, and the Great Eastern. What was Brunel's influence on the important warships of the time, The Rattler and The Warrior? What about his two lesser-known ships that ran the mail route to Australia, the Victoria and Adelaide? Why were these ships so important, not only in terms of maritime history?   “Communications that would take months sometimes were now reduced to minutes.” How so? Construction of the Thames Tunnel with the patented shield But to go back to the beginning: Isambard Brunel's career started by helping his father with the construction of the Thames Tunnel. It continued with the Great Western Railway. Over his lifetime, he built 1,600 km of railway tracks and managed international railway construction projects around the world. More than 100 bridges were constructed by Brunel, many still in operation today, nearly 200 years later.  He also played a role in the World Exhibition of 1851 and the construction and relocation of the Crystal Palace. But let's take one step back: What happened from 1700 to 1900 that triggered this rapid and unprecedented technological, societal, and commercial progress? This was not only Brunel but a league of extraordinary gentlemen, so to speak.   What was Brunel's background, why is it important, and how did his father influence him? Why is it relevant that Isambard was trained as a clockmaker?  Was this a cosmopolitan time and family, contrary to the assumptions some might have of the Victorian and Georgian eras? Many of these engineers and entrepreneurs, like Brunel and Joseph Paxton, were self-made men. What role did mentoring, education, and the open exchange of ideas among these men play? What were Stevenson and Brunel's views on patents? We joke that Brunel would have been a fan of open-source software. The Victorian era offered an ideal of upward mobility that these people used for their own advancement and to the benefit of society. The work of this society, this engineer-driven progress, laid the foundations of our modern lives. Moreover, most of these men were not limited to one domain. They were interested in and mastered all sorts of problems: “Their minds were so flexible, they just wanted to try out new things.” The breadth of Brunel's competence is evident in many successful undertakings; one astounding example is the construction of a hospital for the Crimean War—or was it rather the invention of IKEA? “Engineers solve problems, no matter what they were” How did people like Brunel manage to get so much done in their lives, considering the time and the fact that he died rather young at the age of only 53? “You wonder how that man had any spare time at all when you line up all his projects.” We then discussed who financed all of these enterprises and who took the risks? Also, what is the difference between people who do things and people who mainly talk about things?   “Marine engines were limited in their efficiency and had to carry so much coal that all the experts said: ‘Look, it's not possible to make a ship big enough to take it across the Atlantic.'” And, as so often, many experts were wrong again. The Great Western was highly successful, and there was a desire to build an identical sister ship, but as so often, Brunel had other ideas. Why not build the first large iron ship? The Great Britain!  These ships also represented luxury travel. What did this mean in combination with this entirely new technology?  How did the “Tripadvisor reviews” of the 19th century work? They experiences an age of transformation: everything changed, and yet trust in skilled people who took enormous personal risks enabled this transformation that is closer to a miracle than evolutionary improvements.   We learn that innovation is unpredictable. Sometimes the inventor does not realise he created something that transforms the world, and sometimes he believes in an invention that ultimately fails. Progress thus requires experimentation, risk-taking, and patience. What can we and our younger generation learn from these people who transformed our world? “Using the past to inspire the young of the future?” Other Episodes Episode 129: Rules, A Conversation with Prof. Lorraine Daston Episode 128: Aufbruch in die Moderne — Der Mann, der die Welt erfindet!

Is it good enough that the victim of a nasty assault in Christchurch has had to hound the police for four weeks to find out what's going on with their investigation? This is someone who lost several teeth in the assault which happened in broad daylight inside The Palms shopping mall. Is it good enough? He and his family don't think so, saying today that it's left them feeling like they're the bad guys, when all they've wanted is to know what's going on. I'll come back to his story. And another one. But is it good enough? I don't think it is. But even though Canterbury Police have ditched their restructuring plans which would have had less cops based in areas like Amberley and Culverden and more cops based in growth areas like Rangiora and Rolleston, I don't see things changing anytime soon. The police obviously didn't bank on Federated Farmers getting fired up and organising public meetings, which led to 1,000 submissions against the proposals, which have now been ditched. But while Federated Farmers and people in places like Amberley and Culverden will be happy, it doesn't solve the problem for everyone else in Canterbury. The problem being: there's not enough cops. Which brings me back to the guy who was punched in the chops in broad daylight by a woman at The Palms four weeks ago. Matt Sherwood is his name. He's a baker —he runs his own business— and he was at the mall selling his products when a woman he didn't know put her groceries down on his table. He said “g'day” to her and she muttered something. But then went and opened a can of drink that started to fizz everywhere. All over Matt's stall. And, within seconds, she was yelling “f*** you man” and she hit him in the face. He lost six teeth and has been to the dentist multiple times, which has cost him thousands of dollars. But the bit that has left him really frustrated is the way he's had to hound the police for information. He's saying today: “Every single sort of point we get to, it's just like it's forced. I feel like I've done something wrong all the time. I would have liked some sort of timeline, and just to keep up with stuff and (have them) contact me and tell me the time frame.” The exact same story for someone else we've heard about. This person was assaulted in a public place, called the police the next day, and had to chase them for two weeks to get an initial phone conversation. After that, they had no further contact and after following up repeatedly, was eventually told by a police officer that they were “needy and desperate”. They felt that, as the victim, the onus was on them to chase the police, instead of the police coming to them. Which has left them feeling that their experience was minimised and that they weren't a priority. This is nowhere near good enough, in my book. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Im April 1912 sticht die Titanic zu ihrer ersten und letzten Fahrt in See.Gebaut als größter und luxuriösester Dampfer ihrer Zeit, soll sie ein schwimmendes Symbol für Modernität, Technik und Macht werden – und endet in einer Katastrophe, die uns bis heute bewegt.In der ersten Folge blicken wir zurück auf die Entstehung des Giganten aus Stahl.

Amberley Village - Council Meeting - July 14, 2025

Ich war im April in England. Ich erzähle das nicht deshalb, weil ich jetzt einen neuen Reise-Podcast mache oder ihnen Urlaubsphotos zeigen möchte. Aber diese Reise war eingerahmt von zwei Themen: Isambard Kingdom Brunel und einem Abend des Spectator-Magazins mit Douglas Murray, der sein neues und sehr wichtiges Buch vorgestellt hat. Isambard Kingdom Brunel vor der SS Great Western Ich hatte eigentlich vor, eine schnelle Episode (?) zu dem Thema zu machen und über die Eindrücke zu plaudern und zum Nachdenken anzuregen— und dann sind es wieder mehr als zwei Monate intensiver Recherche und das Lesen von vier Büchern geworden, bis ich mich hier sozusagen eingeschwungen habe. Keine Minute davon war für mich allerdings verloren. Sollten Sie, wie viele, den Namen Brunel noch nie gehört haben, umso besser: bleiben sie dran, ich garantiere ihnen, es wird eine faszinierende und vor allem inspirierende Geschichte, die zum Weiterdenken anregen wird.  SS Great Britain Die heutige Episode steht für mich auch vor dem Hintergrund meiner Buch-Recherche vor allem was die Zeit des 19. Jahrhunderts betrifft und die Folgen für unsere moderne Zivilisation. Diese Recherche hat mich auf mehreren Ebenen beeindruckt und verändert, aber auch etwas ärgerlich gemacht, um ehrlich zu sein. Ich war überrascht, wie wenig ich über diese absolut transformative Zeit wusste, in der Schule gelernt habe und wie wenig dies in der Öffentlichkeit thematisiert wird. Damit meine ich nicht nur die geschichtliche Dimension, sondern auch die Lehren, die man daraus ziehen kann und, wie ich denke, ziehen muss.  Welchen Pfad bin ich über die letzten sechs Jahre im Podcast gegangen? Bin ich schlauer geworden? Habe ich meine Ansichten verändert? Welche unglaubliche Geschichte des Erfolgs und der Transformation zeichnet diese Generation von Erfindern und Unternehmern des 19. Jahrhunderts und was können (oder sollen?!) wir von ihnen lernen? Sir Joseph Paxton »Paxton war vor natürlich ein Gärtner, aber als Pionier unter den self made Männern der viktorianischen Ära gehörte er einer Generation an, die ihre Zeit als Übergang von der Vergangenheit in die Zukunft betrachtete und die Innovationen des Tages begrüßte.« Wir begegnen einer Generation von Machern, nicht Raunzern und Defätisten. »Wie viele seiner Zeitgenossen, schien er fähig zu sein, nahezu jede Aufgabe zu lösen.« Crystal Palace im Hyde Park Aber hilft uns dies in der heutigen Welt? »Could our society produce another Brunel? It is difficult to see how.«, Steven Brindle Das wäre ein unfassbarer Stillstand. Wollen wir uns mit einem solchen Gedanken zufrieden geben? »One of the sad signs of our times is that we have demonized those who produce, subsidized those who refuse to produce, and canonized those who complain.«, Thomas Sowell Sind wir eine von Ängsten erfüllte, stagnierende Gesellschaft geworden, vor allem in Europa? »No Risk no fun, aber stärker: no Risk, no survival.« Der Versuch, alle Risiken zu vermeiden wird selbst zum größten Risiko. »Man kann mit den Ideen der Vergangenheit nicht in die Zukunft gelangen. Das Gestalten der Zukunft birgt Risiken und bringt Probleme mit sich. Diese Risiken nicht einzugehen legt aber noch viel größere Risiken offen.« Und der Blick in die Vergangenheit stellt weitere Fragen: gab es je Zeiten, die sicher waren, in denen man ruhig und entspannt an der Zukunft arbeiten konnte? »Human life has always been lived on the edge of a precipice. Human culture has always had to exist under the shadow of something infinitely more important than itself. If man had postponed the search for knowledge and beauty until they were secure, the search would never had begun. […] Life has never been normal.«, C. S.

I hope Environment Canterbury isn't bothering listening to Waimakariri MP Matt Doocey. He's not impressed that the regional council is going to spend money doing a business case for a rail passenger service between Rangiora, Christchurch, and Rolleston. Matt Doocey says it's nothing more than a pie-in-the-sky idea and, given we're in a cost-of-living crisis, he says ECAN should stick to its knitting and focus on getting costs down and reducing rates. But what Matt Doocey should be doing —instead of criticising ECAN— is praising it for showing some initiative. He should be praising it for showing that it's prepared to do the kind of big sky, big picture thinking that local government hasn't been doing, and which we've been saying it should be doing. I think Doocey isn't reading the room, and I suspect that there will be a lot of excitement about ECAN pushing this rail idea. What's more, ECAN has put some money aside for a possible rail project. Plus, it's talking about not just limiting this rail passenger idea to Rangiora, Christchurch, and Rolleston. It's saying that, once up and running, the service could be extended to places like Amberley, Ashburton, Timaru, and even further south into Otago and Southland. I'm loving the idea. I'm also loving the fact that ECAN is prepared to put some skin in the game. To spend some money and find out once-and-for-all how much of a goer this could be. ECAN is onto something because if there's a common complaint about how the earthquake rebuild played out, it would be the fact that, despite all the talk that Christchurch was going to be the most modern city in the country, it's not. Because we've just stuck to the same old, same old when it comes to things like transport. And local government has to carry some of the blame for that. But now, ECAN wants to make good on that. What this comes down to for me is this: what do expect of local government? Do we just expect it to stick to its knitting and do the basic boring stuff? Or do we expect our councils to be the big picture thinkers? If you're like me and you want to see councils doing the big picture stuff, then you'll agree that we've lost the ability to think big. Mark my words, there'll be no shortage of people running in the local body elections later this year banging-on about sticking to the basics. Whereas ECAN is showing that it's thinking about the future, which is exactly the kind of thing I want to see not just from ECAN, but all our councils. Tell that to Waimakariri MP Matt Doocey, though. He's saying today: ‘Rather than coming up with pie in the sky motions, ECAN should focus on reducing rates which have rapidly increased - putting more pressure on ratepayers in a cost-of-living crisis.'' Compare that to the likes of ECAN councillor Joe Davies who is saying we can't wait 20 or 30 years, and we need a solution in the next five to ten years. He says: ‘There's a corridor already in place so there would be significantly lower set-up costs and this is an opportunity to link Rangiora and Rolleston to the city.'' So he sees opportunity. Matt Doocey sees obstacles. ECAN sees opportunity and is doing something about it, which is the approach I want to see a lot more of from our local councils.

Rubrique:nouvelles Auteur: arthur-conan-doyle Lecture: Daniel LuttringerDurée: 33min Fichier: 23 Mo Résumé du livre audio: Josiah Amberley est le cofondateur d'une petite entreprise de matériel artistique, connu pour ses peintures, vivant désormais à la retraite dans le district londonien de Lewisham grâce aux bénéfices retirés de ses activités. Après un an de retraite, il a épousé une très belle femme âgée d'une vingtaine d'années de moins que lui. Cependant, sans tarder, une liaison amoureuse s'est nouée entre Mme Amberley et le Dr Ray Ernest, qui venait souvent rendre visite aux Amberley pour jouer aux échecs avec le maître de maison, « et sans doute à d'autres jeux plus fous avec sa femme »3. Un soir, Mme Amberley et son amant sont finalement partis ensemble en emportant de l'argent et des titres financiers appartenant à Josiah Amberley. Ce dernier vient consulter Holmes sur le conseil de Scotland Yard dans le but de retrouver le couple en fuite et l'argent volé...

Amberley Village - Monthly Council Meeting - August 14, 2024

Erin Middleton owns the only hair salon between Kaikoura and Amberley. The Cheviot hairdresser, who is also an emergency first responder, says she enjoys listening to her clients stories as much as cutting and colouring their hair.

Karl welcomes Catherine Cooke back to the show to discuss the next story in the Sherlock Holmes canon: The Adventure of the Golden Piece-Nez

When Hitler marched into Austria in March 1938, he was given a rapturous reception. Millions lined the streets and filled the squares of Vienna. Tobias Portschy, a self-appointed regional Nazi chief, considered what to give the Fuhrer for his birthday, and devised a particular gift from the Austrian people: the elimination of Jewish life in the Burgenland, picturesque farming country about 70 km south-east of Vienna. Eichmann took note of the brutal methodology. The Holocaust had begun.  Burgenland: Village Secrets and the First Tremors of the Holocaust (Amberley, 2023) is an astonishing survey of Jewish history in Central Europe, an account of the opening salvo of what turned into the systematic industrial-scale genocide of European Jewry, a stern examination of British policy and the world's wholly inadequate response. It is also a deeply personal memoir and family history. Impeccably researched and hugely ambitious in scope, it narrates the full arc of the Jewish experience in Central Europe over 300 years, following the lives of one family who played a significant part in events described, from the struggle for civil liberties to the resistance to fascism and the rise of Zionism. David Joseph has dissected an uncomfortable history, and the results demand a substantial reassessment of the orthodox narrative around the Holocaust both in Britain and in Austria.
