As Indonesia grapples with increasingly frequent climate disasters—from the devastating floods in Sumatra and Aceh to prolonged droughts affecting food security—a new book is rejecting the usual solutions. No carbon credits. No waiting for the next Elon Musk. Instead, Bacaan Bumi asks: what if the answers lie in Indonesia's own revolutionary history, its constitutional foundations, and its diverse philosophical traditions? Published by Yayasan Obor Pustaka Indonesia last year, Bacaan Bumi began as a monthly supplement for Inside Indonesia magazine—where, we should acknowledge, several Talking Indonesia hosts are also involved. (Yes, this is a slightly nepotistic episode, but we promise the ideas are worth it.) The supplement was initiated by Gerry van Klinken, a longtime Indonesia scholar and one of the board members of Inside Indonesia, and brought together 17 Indonesian academics, activists, and thinkers who argue that technology and market mechanisms alone won't save us. Instead, they propose something more radical: an eco-socialist manifesto rooted in Indonesian soil. The book emerged from conversations sparked by a groundbreaking summer school on critical environmental history at Gadjah Mada University—Indonesia's first university program of its kind. The response has been striking: packed book launches across Java, students demanding more courses, and activists finding new language to connect Marxist commodity analysis with Javanese mysticism, Islamic green theology with feminist readings of adat traditions, and Sukarno's Marhaenism with 21st-century ecological citizenship. The editors don't call it an academic collection. They call it a manifesto. In his introduction, Farabi Fakih writes that Indonesia's environmental movement in the 21st century is “the natural continuation of the Southern revolution imagined by Sukarno.” He explicitly rejects what he calls the “techno-magical narrative” of Silicon Valley billionaires and the “declensionist narrative” of inevitable doom—both of which, he argues, serve to disable collective action against capitalism. But what does an environmental manifesto look like in the Indonesian context? How do you connect Marx's theory of metabolic rift to flood disasters in Sumatra? Why do young Indonesians find hope in pan-psychism and Kendeng mountain feminism? And what happens when you discover that Indonesia's 1945 constitution already contains ecological philosophy that's been largely forgotten? In this episode, we had a conversation with two of Bacaan Bumi's key contributors: Farabi Fakih, who heads the Master's program in History at Gadjah Mada University where the critical environmental history curriculum was born, and Fathun Karib, a historical sociologist, postdoctoral fellow at the Asia Research Institute, and founding member of punk band Critical Death. Together they explore why genuine solutions must come from within Indonesia, why book tours revealed both hope and anxiety among younger generations, and how a 1960s Indonesian constitutional provision about the earth might offer more wisdom than all of Silicon Valley's promises combined. In 2026, the Talking Indonesia podcast is co-hosted by Dr Jemma Purdey from the Australia-Indonesia Centre, Dr Elisabeth Kramer from the University of New South Wales, Tito Ambyo from RMIT, Dr Jacqui Baker from Murdoch University, and Clara Siagian from University College London.

King Solomon, of the royal House of David, is considered the richest human being the world has ever known. For centuries, the legend of his gold mines, said to be the source of much of his immense wealth, has captured the imagination of people from all nations and stations in life. According to the Bible, Solomon, the wise son of King David, ruled from Jerusalem from 970 to 930 BC, presiding over Israel's Golden Age and becoming renowned not only for his extraordinary wisdom but also for his unmatched riches. Centuries later, in February 1851, Edward Hargraves ignited the Australia gold rush when he discovered gold in what is now known as Ophir, New South Wales. Thousands of eager prospectors from across the colonies and around the world flocked to the region, and within a decade, Australia was producing nearly a third of the world's gold. The gold rush profoundly reshaped Australian society, transformed the nation's economy, and ensured that, like Solomon's legendary wealth, gold would leave a lasting mark on history.

Biofilm is “comprised of living cells and a structure to protect them . . . that has potentially infectious material within it.” The structure creates a physical barrier between the microorganisms and their environment, providing protection from cleaning chemistries, disinfectants, antibiotics and the body's immune system. In episode 143, host Jon Wood speaks with Dr. Jon Burdach of Nanosonics. They discuss all things biofilm: what it is, how it develops and why it is so persistent. Dr. Burdach explains the difference between preventing biofilm and removing it, and he makes a compelling case for why removal is more important. He references recent studies, including those revealing that commonly used chemicals can act as fixatives and exacerbate biofilm growth. Dr. Burdach also reviews what can happen when biofilm is introduced into the body and its role in hospital-acquired infection (HAI) outbreaks over time. Lastly, the conversation turns to the particular challenge of cleaning flexible endoscope channels. Dr. Burdach introduces the cyclic-buildup biofilm (CBB) research model and shares developments in emerging lumen cleaning technologies. This episode of Process This! addresses the far-reaching implications of biofilm and what SP professionals can do to help. “If we are better armed with the right knowledge, we can do better by our patients,” said Dr. Burdach. “Processing instruments is hard . . . but the people that do it are really what makes all the difference.” ABOUT OUR GUEST Jon Burdach, PhD Vice President of Medical Affairs Nanosonics, Inc.

Lismore sits at the confluence of two rivers in New South Wales. Covering more than 1,300 square kilometres, it is home to more than 44,000 people. In 2022, it was hit by a huge flood, the highest on record, followed by a smaller, though still devastating, second flood. Five lives were lost in the disasters, along with 500 properties, making 2,000 people homeless at a cost of AUD 350M in damages. The event raised critical questions about flood prevention and planning. It underscored the urgent need for more resilient approaches to town and city planning, that anticipate extreme events and protect communities and economic activities more effectively. Engeny were initially brought in to improve flood protection, before the flooding demonstrated the existential need for this work. This episode looks at the protection work so far, how it has evolved after the flood, and future plans to meet the increasing risks. Guest Mark Page, Government Sector Lead, Engeny Partner Egis is a leading global architectural, consulting, construction engineering, operations and mobility services firm.

What happens when a six-month holiday turns into a 14-year life chapter? You pack a bag for a gap year in the snow and accidentally stumble into a whole new world - a career, a husband, a mortgage, and three children. On paper, it’s the fairytale expat dream. But eventually, the adventure stops feeling like freedom and starts feeling like distance. Georgia Louise was living that dream as a ski patroller in Canada. However, when the global pandemic hit, her perception of being "a flight away" changed to feeling "a world away". That was the moment of the pivot: The realisation that to move forward, she had to go back to where she started - but as a completely different person. In this episode of Pivot Club, Sarah Davidson talks to Georgia about the decision to pack up over a decade of life into seven suitcases to chase a dream she’d been ignoring for years: To become a nurse. Georgia opens up about the "messy middle" of relocating a family of five to regional New South Wales with no credit rating, no local employment history and nothing but a heartfelt letter to convince a landlord to take a chance on them. We unpack the reality of dismantling a comfortable life to start from scratch, the humility of sitting in a university lecture hall with 18-year-olds as a mature-age student and how Georgia uses her thriving social media platform to fund her studies. Join us for a conversation about the logistics of moving a family across the globe when the pull of home becomes too loud to ignore. Get ready to be inspired by a woman who is proving that it is never too late to go back to school. THE END BITS: Want more from Sarah Davidson? Check out her podcast Seize The Yay.

In 1986, Sydney nurse Anita Cobby was abducted and murdered after a sexual assault, followed two years later by the abduction, sexual assault and murder of Janine Balding after she was taken from Sutherland train station. In the aftermath, the New South Wales government introduced laws that ensured the teenage offenders would spend their lives in prison with no chance of parole. Criminal lawyer and former NSW MP Peter Breen joins Australian True Crime to argue those laws were deeply flawed and that some of the men convicted may have been innocent.

In this episode, Kimberly speaks with Jane Hardwicke Collings, a post-menopausal grandmother, former midwife, and founder of the School of Shamanic Womancraft. They explore how the lessons learned from the natural childbirth movement must now be applied to menopause, discussing what Jane calls "sage-escence," the becoming of the wise woman. Jane shares her journey from hospital nurse to home birth midwife, how her midwifery awakened her to the patriarchy's medicalization of women's bodies, and why she sees a natural menopause movement emerging. They dive deep into the connections between all rites of passage, from menstruation to birth to menopause, and examine how unresolved trauma surfaces during these transitions. The conversation also explores sexuality and the erotic through life's seasons, the impact of childhood trauma on menopausal symptoms, body shame, aging, and the cultural pressure toward hormone therapy versus embracing natural processes. Bio Jane Hardwicke Collings is a post-menopausal grandmother, mother of a blended family with four adult children and four grandchildren. A former Registered Nurse who worked in Paediatric Intensive Care Units and Women's Operating Theatres, she became a midwife at 26 and left the hospital system so as not to be complicit with institutionalized acts of abuse and violence on women and babies masquerading as safety. She was a homebirth midwife for 30 years in city and rural areas of Australia. Jane carries the lineage of Shamanic Midwifery from her teacher Jeannine Parvati Baker and created the School of Shamanic Womancraft in 2009, an international Women's Mystery School. She travels internationally giving workshops on the wisdom of cycles, the spiritual practice of menstruation, sacred dimensions of pregnancy, birth, and menopause, and reclaiming women's rites of passage. She also offers teacher training, books, and e-courses. Jane is a co-creator of Hygieia Health, a not-for-profit with a mission to create freestanding birth centers and fund homebirth. She lives in the bush on the edge of a forest in New South Wales, Australia, committed to walking her talk and treading lightly on the earth. She sees herself as an Agent of the Goddess, a Priestess at the altars of transformation.   What She Shares: –Journey from hospital nurse to home birth midwife –Applying lessons from natural childbirth to menopause –Sage-escence: the becoming of the wise woman –How childhood trauma affects menopausal symptoms –Salutogenic vs pathogenic perspectives on women's health –Personal healing journey around sexuality at menopause –Crowning the Crones ceremony –Preparing for the transition to elderhood at 70 What You'll Hear: –Jane's awakening to the patriarchy through midwifery training –Why she left hospital to become a home birth midwife –Bringing midwife eyes and heart to all rites of passage –The state of birth in Australia and globally –Free birth, doulas, and current threats to birth workers –How home birth advocates are embracing medicalized menopause –HRT keeping women in a static hormonal state –The natural menopause movement emerging –Anti-aging culture and the privilege of aging –Body shame rooted in menstrual shame –Kimberly's reflections on cosmetic procedures and nervous system impact –How orgasm and sexuality change across a woman's lifetime –Healing sexual inheritance from mothers and grandmothers –Unresolved trauma surfacing at menopause as healing opportunity –First sexual experience as imprint that unfolds through life –Libido changes through life stages –Finding new reasons for sexuality post-reproduction –The spiral of life: what unfolds at each new season –Honoring crones and receiving their wisdom   Resources Website: https://janehardwickecollings.com/ IG: @janehardwickecollings Kimberly's Mobilize Freeze Course: https://kimberlyannjohnson.com/freeze/  

Many of the features on the Moon are named for astronomers. So are features on Mars and other planets and moons. And hundreds of asteroids are named for astronomers as well. But you won’t find many features named for astronomers here on Earth. Quite a few streets and schools are named after them. But when it comes to major features, the list is pretty thin – especially in the United States. One of the few is Mount Langley, a 14,000-foot summit in California. It’s named for Samuel Pierpont Langley, who was a long-time director of the Allegheny Observatory. To see more features named for astronomers, though, you need to head south – to Australia, New Zealand, and even Antarctica. In Australia, for example, a river and an estuary are named for Thomas Brisbane, an early governor of the state of New South Wales. And so is the city of Brisbane, the capital of Queensland. In addition to his government duties, Brisbane was an astronomer. He set up Australia’s first major observatory. In New Zealand, several peaks in a large mountain range are named for astronomers, including Galileo and Copernicus. And an entire range is named for Johannes Kepler. In Antarctica, many features are named for James Ross, an early explorer. But Ross himself named several features for astronomers, including Cape Smyth and Mount Lubbock – down-to-earth features named for men who studied the stars. Script by Damond Benningfield

In central west New South Wales, police have flown in specialist officers to search for a gunman suspected of killing three people including a pregnant woman.

Send us a textWe're going back Down Under for a really impressive comeback story. Olli Bryers was what we Americans would stereotype as a young, carefree, adventurous Australian who liked to surf, backpack, travel, and occasionally party. Usually, that youthful bliss only gets interrupted when the real world says that maybe you need to find a job to finance this lifestyle, or get serious about a long-term career path. But in Olli's case, that jolt came in his early 20s from the discovery of a spinal tumor that necessitated a surgery that could rob his ability to ever walk again. Fortunately, the doctors were successful in removing the tumor and it was benign. Improbably, just six months later, Olli toed the starting line of his very first triathlon, in his hometown of Newcastle in the state of New South Wales. But that wasn't the end of this amazing comeback story because Olli never would have completed the race without the generosity of another competitor. His finish time was 1:27:16, placing him 114th out of 304 who completed it. But I have a feeling that this is only the beginning for this young Aussie, who as you'll hear in this interesting chat has a lot of gratitude and a very mature attitude about the meaning of his surviving this ordeal intact, including how to approach life and being kinder to those around you. Plus, I've got to say that Olli told me I'm “cruisy,” which I took as a compliment. You'll have to look that one up in your Aussie slang dictionary.Olli BryersInstagram @olli.bryersBill Stahlsilly_billy@msn.comFacebook Bill StahlInstagram and Threads @stahlor and @we_are_superman_podcastYouTube We Are Superman PodcastSubscribe to the We Are Superman Newsletter!https://mailchi.mp/dab62cfc01f8/newsletter-signupSubscribe to our Substack for my archive of articles of coaching tips developed from my more than three decades of experience, wild and funny stories from my long coaching career, the wit and wisdom of David, and highlights of some of the best WASP episodes from the past that I feel are worthwhile giving another listen.Search either We Are Superman Podcast or @billstahl8Register for the American Heroes Run: https://ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=133138

This week, the boys head back to 1982 to discuss Ridley Scott's “Blade Runner: The Final Cut”. Dave shared his thoughts on whether he prefers this or the original theatrical release (with or without the voice-over???), and Jeff and Dave debate how much, or how little, went into Harrison Ford wondering if he was still frozen in carbonite!

Dame Marie Bashir, nữ Toàn quyền đầu tiên của tiểu bang New South Wales, đã qua đời ở tuổi 95. Sự ra đi của bà để lại niềm tiếc thương trong giới chính trị, y tế và cộng đồng, nơi bà được nhớ đến như một công chức tận tụy, một bác sĩ tiên phong và một nhà vận động không mệt mỏi cho công bằng xã hội.

Three people were killed and another seriously injured in a shooting Thursday afternoon in Lake Cargelligo, New South Wales, prompting Australian police to establish a crime scene and urge residents to stay indoors.

The word "nuzzle" is being used and Victoria Beckham's humiliation is complete. Yes, we have an update on the devastating private family breakdown playing out in the most public of ways. Including: Why was Brooklyn Beckham's name trademarked to his mum? Why are wedding guests posting, and then deleting their recollections of 'that' dance? And what does the 'Atlantic Gap' have to do with all this? It's all here. Also, there have been four shark attacks in New South Wales in just 48 hours, with devastating repercussions. So, is it time Australia got better and louder about shark education? And, do you have an age-gap friendship? Amelia Lester, Jessie Stephens and Holly Wainwright discuss an article that argues every 20-something woman needs a 40-something friend. What do both sides of that dynamic get out of those relationships? And why do they confuse everyone? Plus: The meaning behind Naomi Osaka's "catwalk" moment at the Australian Open.

In this episode of Inside Men's Mental Health, I had the pleasure of speaking with my colleague and fellow men's health podcaster Dr. Paul Sharp, a senior lecturer at the University of New South Wales and researcher whose work focuses on the intersection of sociocultural factors, gender, and men's health. We dove into Dr. Sharp's journey from sports and human kinetics into the world of men's mental health, exploring how his experiences in gender-specific health programs revealed the importance of safe spaces for men to open up about their mental well-being. We discussed the concept of social capital and how environments like sports can provide men with the comfort to be vulnerable. Dr. Sharp shared insights from his research and podcast, In Good Company, highlighting the challenges men face in building and maintaining social connections, especially as life circumstances change. We reflected on the importance of peer support, the difficulty men often have in asking for help, and the value of small, everyday interactions in fostering connection. Please check out Dr. Sharp's podcast In Good Company for some great conversations and resources on men's mental health and wellness.  Dr. Sharp also touched on the evolving landscape of health promotion, the need for thoughtful messaging, and the role of community in prevention. This conversation is a reminder that building strong relationships and being open to support are vital steps toward better mental health for men. 

I quattro attacchi di squalo avvenuti nel giro di 48 ore nel New South Wales hanno il maltempo del fine settimana come elemento in comune: si tratta di una coincidenza statistica o qualcosa è cambiato nelle abitudini degli squali e nel loro ambiente?

In just 48 hours, four people were attacked by sharks in New South Wales. In response, nearly thirty beaches have been closed and authorities are warning swimmers to avoid waterways after heavy storms. Nour Haydar speaks to associate professor Christopher Pepin-Neff about the ‘perfect storm' of environmental factors that has attracted sharks and what we all need to know before entering the water

But behind the scenes, PTSD and burnout were stacking up: sleepless nights, heavy drinking, and a culture that treated suffering like weakness. After being medically retired, Craig entered a dark three-year spiral that culminated in a suicide attempt—then made a decision that changed everything: he built a recovery plan the way he used to run investigations. In this episode, Craig and Conrad unpack what first responders miss most—identity loss, the “helper who won't ask for help,” the family as the canary in the coal mine, and the everyday practices that keep you well enough to finish strong.   ABOUT CRAIG SEMPLE Craig Semple was a career Detective within the NSW Police Force for 25 years. Much of Craig's career was invested in `high risk' law enforcement including drug investigation, the investigation of outlaw motorcycle gangs and homicides. The environment within which Craig led professional people for much of his career was one that exposed employees to high levels of stress, high workloads, occupational burnout, depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder. As a leader he developed a clear and practical understanding of workplace mental health and its relevance to workplace health and safety, occupational health and safety legislation, productivity, personal wellbeing and resilience. Craig's retirement from the Police Force was as a result of his own personal battle with workplace Psychological Injury. From that `lived experience' he has developed a rare personal insight into the causes, symptoms, treatment, recovery strategies and the impact of mental illness in the workplace.

Sau một thời gian mưa lớn, hàng loạt vụ tấn công nghi do cá mập bò gây ra ở New South Wales đã khiến những người đi biển lo lắng. Vào thứ Ba [[20 tháng 1]], một người đàn ông đã bị cá mập tấn công tại bãi biển Point Plomer gần Port Macquarie trên vùng bờ biển phía Bắc Trung Bộ của bang, may mắn chỉ bị thương nhẹ. Đây là vụ tấn công cá mập thứ tư ở New South Wales chỉ trong vòng hai ngày.

New South Wales' first female governor, Dame Marie Bashir, has died aged 95. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and New South Wales Premier Chris Minns are among those to have paid tribute to Dame Marie's life and legacy as a respected public servant, and committed advocate across mental health, education, Indigenous rights, and social inclusion.

In a shocking twist to one of the year's most closely watched legal battles, Kate Whiteman — the first woman to legally accuse the Alexander brothers of SA — has been found dead in Australia just weeks before the high-stakes federal trial is set to begin. Authorities in New South Wales have ruled her death “non-suspicious,” but the timing has reignited nationwide media attention and public scrutiny. Whiteman's lawsuit, filed in March 2024, was the catalyst for dozens of additional claims from women across New York, Florida, California and beyond, accusing the wealthy real estate siblings of drugging, coercing and assaulting them over more than a decade. Now, as jury selection opens this month in Manhattan, prosecutors are moving forward with some of the most serious federal sex trafficking and conspiracy charges seen in years — charges that could put the Alexander brothers behind bars for life. The Alexander brothers — Oren, Alon, and Tal Alexander — are accused in a sweeping federal indictment that alleges a long-running scheme to exploit women using their wealth, influence and luxury lifestyle.Support the show & be a part of #STSNation:Donate to STS' Trial Travel: Https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/GJ...VENMO: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcastCheck out STS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSupport the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorEmail: SurvivingTheSurvivor@gmail.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Maddy, a registered nurse and mother of three from the Central Coast of New South Wales, takes us through her complete birth journey. Her story beautifully illustrates how subsequent births can offer profound healing opportunities, especially with the right support team and birth education. Maddy's first birth was an induction which resulted in significant perineal trauma, and postpartum haemorrhage. However, her second and third births through Midwifery Group Practice (MGP) care demonstrate the transformative power of continuity of care, informed choice, and trusting your body's ability to birth.

No robbery. No clear “why.”Just a family that seemed to collectively slip out of reality…in broad daylight.Source Material:https://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-09-01/victorian-couple-spark-police-search-across-two-states/7805224 https://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-09-03/mark-tromp-found-after-police-search/7812148 https://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-09-05/ella-tromp-charged-with-stealing-car/7815700 https://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-09-06/mark-tromp-apologises-for-puzzling-family-road-trip/7818562 https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2016/sep/01/missing-melbourne-mother-jacoba-tromp-found-alive-in-hospital-in-nsw-town-of-yass https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2016/sep/02/police-search-for-missing-man-after-family-break-up-on-bizarre-road-trip https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2016/sep/02/tromp-daughter-found-in-back-of-ute-in-catatonic-state https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2016/sep/03/mark-tromp-found-on-outskirts-of-wangaratta https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2016/sep/04/mark-tromps-children-say-road-trip-that-led-to-search-a-family-matter https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2016/sep/05/ella-tromp-charged-with-stealing-car-during-bizarre-family-road-trip https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2016/sep/06/mark-tromp-sorry-for-hurt-and-concern-caused-by-bizarre-family-road-trip https://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/vic-dad-missing-after-bizarre-road-trip/7r4gsvytn https://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/tromp-daughter-was-found-in-back-of-ute/tzpes451z https://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/tromp-family-road-trip-still-a-mystery/cu9o25rc7 https://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/tromp-father-apologises-over-road-trip/2gwj4tafd Music Credit:1.

DALLAS THE DOG MONITORS COCKATOO SIEGE DURING HEATWAVE Colleague Jeremy Zakis. During a severe heatwave in New South Wales where temperatures reached 115°F (43°C), Dallas the dog has been vigilantly monitoring a flock of destructive cockatoos from his porch. While intelligent birds like magpies have retreated to the shade or are sharing Dallas's water bowl to survive the heat, the cockatoos remain active and destructive, tearing at pine cones and eyeing the neighbor's roof, which they damaged the previous year. The cockatoos are able to withstand the extreme temperatures better than other wildlife because they have located a water source in a neighbor's chicken coop, allowing them to continue their "siege" despite the weather. Dallas manages the situation by giving them the "stink eye" from his beanbag, successfully keeping them on the neighbor's side of the fence for the time being. NUMBER 41951

DALLAS THE DOG TEAMS UP WITH MAGPIES TO FIGHT COCKATOOS Colleague Jeremy Zakis. Zakisrecounts how his dog, Dallas, successfully chased destructive cockatoos off their property. While usually friendly, Dallasidentified the birds as enemies, aided by territorial magpies that swooped in to drive the cockatoos away. Although cockatoos are often considered pests that raid trash bins and damage homes in New South Wales, Dallas's vigilance has protected Zakis's yard, forcing the birds to target the neighbor's roof instead.
