An independent report commissioned by the Brisbane City Council has revealed the Story Bridge is disintegrating to an extent that it may not be safe within the next two decades. This has sparked discussions about how to fund the restoration. Chair of the Story Bridge Restoration Committee, Nigel Chamier AM, told Gary Hardgrave on 4BC Drive, "We're now 85 years old, and therefore, we're coming to the end, if you like, of the natural life of that bridge. So what we need to do is undertake a very major refurbishment over the years." "The bridge, 15 years off its 100th birthday, needs a lot of work and we want to give it the best possible birthday party. We don't like the idea of giving it a funeral. We can't replace it, we just have to restore it." "So that's what we've got to do. We've got to raise the funds and fix it," Mr Chamier continued. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A new report has suggested the 85-year-old Story Bridge is in such a bad state that the Brisbane City may need to implement tolls to raise revenue to fix it. The situation is so dire that if we do not act now there may be no Story Bridge when the 2032 Olympics arrive. When asked about the possibility of a usage toll, Brisbane Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "It is a 100% no from Council, because we don't even have the power to introduce a toll, we don't have the legislative authority to introduce a toll." "That decision would have to be made at the state government level, so from me, it's a no." "But ultimately, if the other levels of government don't step up, that may be the only option left on the table," The Lord Mayor continued.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Sunshine State set to receive $200 million for a variety of infrastructure projects including the Story Bridge. The Federal Infrastructure Minister Catherine King told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "We need to make sure this bridge stays there into the future and is as strong as it possibly can be and we keep it there for many, many generations to enjoy," Mrs. King said. Peter Fegan also questioned the Infrastructure Minister over funding on the Bruce Highway.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Lord Mayor has thrown his weight behind the idea for alcohol to be included on the Story Bridge climb. Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner told council today, "What is proposed is the option for people to have a single drink when they have reached the top of the bridge." Gary Hardgrave has doubled down on his thoughts on the idea, "This whole thing is just madness."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Brisbane Story Bridge Adventure Climb company plans to offer alcohol at the top of the bridge as part of the climb experience. Additionally, they aim to construct safety lines and stairs to allow people to walk up the north side of the bridge. Gary Hardgrave said on 4BC Drive, "It's great to let your hair down but let's be real under no circumstances should you be allowed to sink a tinny on the top of the Story Bridge."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ratepayers are going to have to cough up $1.5 billion to repair the 84-year-old Story Bridge to meet industry standards. Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, 'before the bridge turned 80, we started towards the 100-year birthday doing that work.' 'But it's just become clear that it's a much bigger job than anticipated and also the other thing that's happened over the last five years is costs of doing anything have increased significantly. So, what something costs today is much more than it cost five years ago and that's the challenge,' Schrinner said.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We're often preoccupied with being successful and moving up the social ladder. However, we all face fears, addictions, depression, and life events that can throw us off. In this conversation, Professor Lorelle Burton interviews Donna Thistlethwaite, who, in 2012, fell from Brisbane's Story Bridge in an attempt to end her life. Donna was having career difficulties at the time, which were fuelled by feelings of inadequacy and worthlessness. Fortunately, Donna survived the experience and now shares her story to inspire others to know that everything is figure-outable. Donna reminds us that failure (real or perceived) does not need to define us and the right strategies can be successfully used to create a fulfilling and happy life (no matter your current challenges). Donna shares her inspiring story about thriving after a significant mental health experience to build resilience and normalise discussions about mental health.

Following the recent announcement that Sydney's third city near the new western Sydney airport will be called Bradfield, Michael speaks with Emeritus Professor Peter Spearritt, School of Historical and Philosophical Inquiry Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Queensland, about the accomplishments and legacy of John Bradfield.   John Job Crew Bradfield CMG (26 December 1867 – 23 September 1943) was the Australian engineer best known as the chief proponent of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, of which he oversaw both the design and construction, although detailed design work had been carried out by civil engineer Sir Ralph Freeman.     Although he was a Queenslander by birth, he worked for the New South Wales Department of Public Works from 1891 to 1933 and was the first recipient of an engineering doctorate from the University of Sydney.   Other notable projects with which he was associated include the Cataract Dam (completed 1907), the Burrinjuck Dam (completed 1928), and Brisbane's Story Bridge (completed 1940).   The Harbour Bridge formed only one component of the City Circle, Bradfield's grand scheme for the railways of central Sydney, a modified version of which was completed after his death.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Working with Interfaith medical center And from HBO’s crashing, performing every week in Manhattan, living the dream, Greer Barnes!And, of course Dr. J (aka Jahan Marcu,Ph.D)Word of the day: Tincture - Notes below:What is a tincture you may ask? Tinctures are liquid extracts made from herbs that you take orally (by mouth). They are usually extracted in alcohol (known here on our website as "regular"), but they can also be extracted in vegetable glycerine or apple cider vinegar (non-alcohol). Tinctures are easy and convenient to use. Tinctures are also easier to give to children as they have to take only small amounts (see Children's Dosage Guide for suggestions). Because they are taken directly under the tongue, they enter the bloodstream much more quickly and directly than by any other means. This means that the action in the body is usually quicker. Although some herbs will have an immediate effect, such as those used to help one relax, others that are more nutritive and building in nature may take several weeks of continual use before best results are seen (much like a multi-vitamin).In the 19th century, the Irish surgeon O’Shaughnessy reintroduced the use of cannabis from India into Western medicine. Cannabis sativa L. (Cannabaceae)—largely in the form of ethanolic tinctures—was then part of main Western pharmacopoeias until the 1930s, when it was removed gradually with increasing recreational use and its legal prosecution In the second half of the 19th century, over 100 scientific articles were published in Europe and the United States about the therapeutic value of cannabis.13 The climax of the medical use of cannabis by Western medicine occurred in the late 19th and early 20th century. Various laboratories marketed cannabis extracts or tinctures, such as Merck (Germany), Burroughs-Wellcome (England), Bristol-Meyers Squibb (United States), Parke-Davis (United States), and Eli Lilly (United States).As non-alcohol tinctures have no alcohol content to them to act as a preservative, they can easily become contaminated and are at risk for growing mold. Alcohol, pregnancy and drug interactions: One dose of an alcohol-based tincture has approximately the same alcohol content as eating a very ripe bananaSativex is licensed in about 30 countries, an insane about of gold standard clinical research is published about this product, which is essentially a tincture with a spray nozzle.
