Cayaaraha iyo Madadaalada Australiyaan badan waxay jecel yihiin cayaaro kuwa badanina waxay gaareen natiijooyin aad u wanaagsan heerka caalamiga ah. Aad ayaan ugu faraxsanahay sumcadeena ummadeed ‘cayaar fiican ahaan’. Cayaar yahanada Australiyaanka ah, rag iyo dumarba, waa loo riyaaqay inay wakiil ka yihiin qiyamka shaqo adayga, isku duubnida iyo cayaar wanaaga. Taariikhdeena, cayaartu way saamaysay waana midaysa dadka dhamaantiis. Laga soo bilaabo degidii ugu horraysay, cayaartu waxay ahayd looga cararo xaqiiqada nolosha qalafsan. Xataa xilligii dagaalka, xubnaha xooga dalka Australia waxay isku duba rideen tartan si ay u caawinto ka soo kabsashada cadaadiska goobta dagaalka. Cayaaruhu waxay kaloo bixiyaan aragti siman taas oo cayaaryahanada iyo daawadayaashu labaduba ay dareemeen isku aragti iyo inay qayb ka yihiin waxyaallo muhiim u ah mujtamaca Australia.

Cricket-ka, kubbada kolayga, kubada shabaqa, Ian Thorpe, ayaa shan jeer ku guulaystay bilada dahabka ee tartanka hokiga iyo kubada fuutiga Australiayaanka ayaa ka mid Olympiga ah kuwa loogu jecel yahay. Dabaasha, teniska, cayaaraha fudfudud, goolafka iyo baaskiilka ayaa ah xarakaadyada madadaalada ee loogu jecel yahay. Xarakaadyada kale ee jireed oo loogu jecel yahay waxaa ku jira ku socodka kaymaha, bad-loox-kula socodka iyo baraf-loox kula socodka. Australia waxay kaloo cayaartaa oo jeceshahay inay daawato cayaaraha kubbada cagta, rugby league, rugby union iyo kubbada fuutiga Australiyaanka. Fuutiga waa cayaar gaar u ah Australia. Australia waxay si gaara ugu faraxsan tahay guusheeda caalamiga ah cayaaraha cricket-ka. Australiayaanka iyo kooxaha Ingiriiska ee cricketka waxa ka dhexeeyey tartan aad u daran ilaa qarnigii 19aad. Melbourne Cup (Koobka Melbourne), ‘tartanka joojiya ummada’, ayaa ah midka ugu qanisan uguna loolan badan tartanada fardaha caalamka. Koobkii ugu horreyey ee Melbourne waxaa la qabtay 1861. Talaadada ugu horraysay bisha Nufeembar, oo ah Melbourne Cup, waxaa laga dhigay maalin fasax Fiktooriya ilaa 1877. Xubin ka mid ah Kooxda Fuutiga Qaranka Dumarka ee Australia Qaybta 4aad – Australiyada maanta 43 Sir Donald Bradman (1908 – 2001) Sir Donald Bradman ayaa ah batsman-kii ugu fiicnaa criket-ka waana cayaar yahan Australiyaana oo taariikhi ah.

Bradman cayaartiisii ugu dambaysay ee 1948, kooxdiisii waxaa loogu magacdaray ‘The Invincibles’ markii ay guulaysteen cayaar kasta oo ay la cayaareen Ingiriiska. Sir Donald Bradman, oo loo yaqaan ‘The Don’ waxaa loo aqoonsaday batsmaankii ugu fiicnaa adduunka. Garaacidiisu isku-celcelis ahaan waxay ahayd

"I have just come back from working in London for three years and I can remember what Not The West was like when I left. Boy, what a non-event. It looks more like an international newspaper now, though without any international content. Reminds me of The Guardian. They are both printed on paper. I suppose Not The West is intellectually a bit more upmarket than it used to be (page three is particularly challenging and I just love the Today section) but it is easy to read (not too many big words) and relaxing (doesn't make you think). I've noticed a more positive news presentation, (take the editorials for example) the reporting is more authoritative (they NEVER seem to admit they don't know; I just LOVE authority) and there is not as much 'fence sitting' these days. It used to be so conservative! I have never thought of Not The West like this before but I don't know, this strange feeling has come over me. It's 30 minutes of the day I always look forward to, in fact it's become the most important 30 minutes of my day. Who needs exercise? By the way, you should see their fantastic web site!"

This thesis is submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Griffith University Faculty of Arts School of Arts, Media and Culture August 2003 Statement of Authorship This work has never been previously submitted for a degree or diploma in any university. To the best of my knowledge and belief, this dissertation contains no material previously published or written by another person except where due reference is made in the dissertation itself. Abstract This thesis contains a detailed academic analysis of the complete rise and fall of Christopher Skase and his Qintex group mirage. It uses David Harvey’s ‘Condition of Postmodernity’ to locate the collapse within the Australian political economic context of the period (1974-1989). It does so in order to answer questions about why and how the mirage developed, why and how it failed, and why Skase became the scapegoat for the Australian corporate excesses of the 1980s. I take a multi-disciplinary approach and consider corporate collapse, corporate regulation and the role of accounting, and corporate deviance. Acknowledgments I am very grateful to my principal supervisor, Dr Anthony B. van Fossen, for his inspiration, advice, direction, guidance, and unfailing encouragement throughout the course of this study; and for suggesting Qintex as a case study.

    Art Appreciation Lecture Series 2018 The Hidden Language of Art: Symbol and Allusion. Lecture title: The Iconography of Arthur Boyd Lecturer: Kendrah Morgan 29/30 August 2018 Lecture summary: Acclaimed artist Arthur Boyd (1920–1999) was a master in a range of media but most widely recognised for the extraordinary allegorical paintings that he produced in series across the course of his long career. This lecture focuses on how Boyd developed his distinctive and deeply personal symbolic language, exploring the evolution and meaning of specific motifs and how he applied and extended these in key sequences of paintings to create images of universal and lasting relevance. While Boyd’s work is stylistically diverse, his iconography is remarkably consistent, allowing us to identify what inspired and drove him, and made him one of the most important Australian artists of the twentieth century.

    1. Gina Rinehart $14.02billion from Resources Chairman – Hancock Prospecting Residence: Perth Wealth last year: $20.01b Rank last year: 1 A plunging iron ore price has made a big dent in Gina Rinehart’s wealth. But so vast are her mining assets that Rinehart, chairman of Hancock Prospecting, maintains her position as Australia’s richest person in 2015. Work is continuing on her $10billion Roy Hill project in Western Australia, although it has been hit by doubts over its short-term viability given falling commodity prices and safety issues. Rinehart is pressing ahead and expects the first shipment late in 2015. Most of her wealth comes from huge royalty cheques from Rio Tinto, which mines vast swaths of tenements pegged by Rinehart’s late father, Lang Hancock, in the 1950s and 1960s. Rinehart's wealth has been subject to a long running family dispute with a court ruling in May that eldest daughter Bianca should become head of the $5b family trust. 2. Anthony Pratt & Family $10.76billion from manufacturing and investment Executive Chairman – Visy Residence: Melbourne Wealth last year: $7.6billion Rank last year: 2 Anthony Pratt’s bet on a recovering United States economy is paying off. The value of his US-based Pratt Industries has surged this year thanks to an improving manufacturing sector and a lower Australian dollar. Pratt is also executive chairman of box maker and recycling business Visy, based in Melbourne. Visy is Australia’s largest private company by revenue and the biggest Australian-owned employer in the US. Pratt inherited the Visy leadership from his late father Richard in 2009, though the firm’s ownership is shared with sisters Heloise Waislitz and Fiona Geminder.
