 Australia should conduct controlled "bio-burn" and let coronavirus spread across Australia, state-by-state, with the goal of achieving herd immunity, an international security expert has suggested. Allan Orr, an Australian counter-terrorism specialist, said Australia's response to the coronavirus pandemic was not just wrong, but it had shown Canberra was woefully underprepared for a bio-terror attack. A cataclysmic bio-terror attack, using an agent like anthrax or botulism, is the doomsday scenario most feared by counter-terror agencies, Dr Orr told nine.com.au.

 Australia’s brutal border wars have dominated headlines as the coronavirus crises raged on, with the NSW and Queensland Premiers repeatedly locking horns over the controversial issue. Queensland’s Annastacia Palaszczuk and NSW’s Gladys Berejiklian have clashed again and again after the northern state barred NSW residents from entering for months on end, with similar divisive border closures also in place in other states during the COVID-19 pandemic. While restrictions have slowly started to ease in recent days as the nation’s virus case numbers continue to drop, there are still many limits on movement in place, with Ms Berejiklian arguing there was no medical reason for them to remain at all.

Hi everyone, I am planning to move to a new rental property in the next few months, and thus I am looking for information that can help me to relocate in a hassle-free and safe manner. Recently, I read several articles on safe moving, but one specific article caught my attention! The article I read is ‘how clean should a rental house be before moving in?’ and it has detailed information on what exactly you need to clean in a rental place before moving in. A clean house will keep allergies and diseases at bay. If you are interested to know more, read the article here.  https://www.bondcleaninginhobart.com.au/how-clean-should-a-rental-house-be-before-moving-in/  

 The Australian state of Tasmania has recorded its largest-ever stranding of whales, after more were found beached during a large rescue effort. Since Monday, an estimated 470 pilot whales have been discovered stranded on Tasmania's west coast. Most of the 200 whales in the newly discovered group appeared to have died, officials said on Wednesday. They said rescuers were racing to save any animals still alive in shallow waters. Although 25 whales from the first group were freed on Tuesday, some had beached themselves again after being brought in by the tide, according to officials.

 When I spent a year in Australia as a young Brit on a working holiday visa in 2000, I took a bus from Broome to Sydney. It took 87 hours. We hurtled over rugged red earth to Katherine, pelted down the Stuart Highway to Adelaide, dining with truckies, swooning over outback sunsets and enjoying eccentric tales in quirky roadhouses. From Adelaide we powered east across dry brown plains, honking road trains and knocking kangaroos along the way.

 The city of Hobart, with its population of 250,000 people, sits on the southern coast of Tasmania, Australia’s island state. Compared to the hustle and bustle of Sydney or Melbourne, it’s serene and spacious, with expansive views, striking 19th century architecture, and a world-class food and wine scene. The one-of-a-kind Museum of Old and New Art creates yet another draw for tourists; so does the island’s extraordinary natural beauty. Over the past decade, Hobart has also become increasingly popular as a permanent destination, too: its population increased by about 10% between 2011 and 2018.  Read more: https://www.citymetric.com/horizons/hobart-australia-tasmania-housing-coronavirus-economy 

 On a lingering midsummer’s eve, I stepped on to a boat at the crowded Hobart waterfront and woke a little after dawn, and a little worse for wear, at Port Davey on the fringe of the vast south-west wilderness. It had been a rough night at sea, much of it spent lurching from side to side on the floor, rather than on my bunk. But the morning was blessedly calm. A glimpse of the spare, silent landscape and a deep breath of the eucalypt and brine-scented air was all it took to be instantly restored.

 They say clothes maketh the man (or woman) and I'm here to say how much I now appreciate active wear. I'm between homes at the moment and living largely out of a suitcase anyway as I travel throughout western Queensland to report on the spring bull sales, so I ended up with no leggings or sweatshirt packed for an early morning run last week. No matter, I thought, I'll just run in yesterday's jeans and T-shirt. Read more: https://www.standard.net.au/story/6922520/running-out-of-clothes/ 

 As soon as you enter the Whole Foods Market flagship store in Austin, Texas, staff smile from behind a concierge desk. That’s before you refill your growler with local craft beer from the bar, your bottle with kombucha on tap or visit the on-site taqueria (one of seven food and drink experiences in the store). As for the aisles, they’re stocked with more canned cold brew nitro coffee, seasonal produce and organic vegan white cheddar chickpea puffs than you can poke an artisan bread stick at. With warm lighting, polished concrete floors and high ceilings, it is the Pinterest board-standard of supermarkets.

 Global tech giants Google and Facebook are using the Australian public as human bargaining chips as they raise the stakes in their bid to block what would be world-leading laws to end the conceit that news content is a free natural resource. While the legislation in question is complex and technical – the product of more than 18 months review and consultation – the political battle is totemic: should big tech be responsible for its impact on our broader democracy?

 Top scientists have delivered an ominous outlook for Australia's future, declaring its quality of life is a risk of sinking to bleak levels over the next four decades. New CSIRO research released last week found incomes in Australia could almost double, access to affordable housing may improve and less would be spent on energy bills by 2060 but only if the federal government rapidly adapts to global challenges. If that doesn't happen, however, the research suggests Australia will only sluggishly grow.
