Eucalyptus oil industry Introduction & history The eucalyptus oil story began in 1788 in Australia, when Surgeon-General John White, distilled oil from a eucalypt he called ‘Sydney Peppermint’. He sent the oil back to England where it was found to be ‘more efficacious in treating colic than English peppermint’. And with that the use of eucalyptus oil in medicinal products began. The antiseptic and healing properties were already known by aboriginal communities. In South Africa – started in 1950’s, when Marc Spraggen started producing eucalyptus oil on his farm Goede Hoop, in Mpumalanga. In the 1960’s, Richard Lunt, diversified his forestry operations and started Busby Essential Oils.

These include: What is the historical explanation for the homogeneity of the Australian accent? Was it formed by the ﬁ rst generation of native-born Australians in the ‘Sydney mixing bowl’, its spread subsequently facilitated by high population mobility? Or is the answer to be found in sociolinguistic reconstructions of the early colony suggesting that a uniform London English was transplanted to Australia in 1788 and that speakers of other dialects quickly adapted to it? How is Australia’s national identity embodied in its lexicon, and to what extent is it currently under the inﬂ uence of external pressure from American English? What are the most distinctive structural features of AusE phonology,

New history. We understand the new history generally in the same way as the representatives of Marxist history. It is a history of establishment of new social-economic formation – capitalism, which, in difference to the previous formations, uses the economic impelling and the big machine production. The most important classes are bourgeoisie and hired workers, in the last time the number of the employees in the sphere of service increases. The peasants decrease in number, the movement of peasants into towns takes place; the remaining peasants become the independent farmers, who are involved into the ware and money economy. In the political sphere it is an epoch of establishment of the republican system, which is profitable first of all for the bourgeoisie, with the time the political rights and liberties are extended for all the population. In the spiritual plan it is an epoch of the upper mental, or causal (later lower intuitive) plan, the humans discover the laws of development of the world and man, the traditional explanations of religion already do not suffice. The time of the swift development of technique (Satan was loosed out of his prison, according to Revelation 20.7), which causes finally the global ecological problems.

AUSTRALIA DAY THE READING / TAPESCRIPT Australia Day is celebrated annually on January the 26th. It is an official national holiday and most Australians take the day off work. All schools close. Australia Day commemorates the creation of the first British settlement in Australia in 1788. Captain Arthur Phillip, the very first Governor of New South Wales, set up a community to run a prison in what is now Sydney. The earliest records of Australia Day date back to 1808. Not all Australians celebrate this day. Many Aboriginal Australians do not like the idea of a day to celebrate the British landing. Aborigines have dubbed the 26 January as "Invasion Day" or "Survival Day". The latter name celebrates the fact that the Aboriginal peoples and culture have not been wiped out. The Prime Minister announces the Australian of the Year on the eve of Australia Day. This goes to the Australian who has made a "significant contribution to the Australian community and nation and is an inspirational role model for the Australian community". There are many other celebrations across the country, including many spectacular fireworks displays. The biggest one is in Perth, capital of Western Australia.

NATIONAL MUSEUM REVIEW OF EXHIBITIONS AND PUBLIC PROGRAMS The NATIONAL ALLIANCE OF CHRISTIAN LEADERS hereby submit a request for a permanent exhibit for school and public use. As the Australian population consists of over 70% Christians, we believe the NMA in its Terms of Reference 2, should "Consider and make recommendations on the future priorities to the Museum, including the continuing relevance of its ACT, in the developement of permanent and temporary exhibitions and school and public programs" to include a permanent exhibit of the Christian History of our Nation. This would not necessarily be a Church History but one of the Christian influence of institutions, individuals, events and documents relating to our Christian heritage. Examples would be: The letters of convicts held by the Bible Society with other historical documents including information on Governor Macquarie's commencement of the Bible Society in March, 1817. We may be able to obtain the first Bible used in the first Church service, 17 Feb 1788, in Australia, by the Rev Richard Johson, held at Saint Philip's Church, Sydney. Pioneers such as Rev John Flynn, founder of the Flying Doctor Service and explorers such as Charles Sturt who demonstrated amazing character traits such as perseverance would be inspiring for school children. Governors such as Macquarie. Missionaries such as Lancelot Threlkeld who gave us the first translation of an Australian language,as spoken by the Awabakal. Establishment of Education. The Bicentenary of Christian schooling was celebrated in 1993. The journal of the ship "Duff" the first missionary ship in the Pacific, published in 1799.

Competing Forms of Adjectival Comparison in Some Modern Varieties of English Across the World
Terhi Hagman COMPETING FORMS OF ADJECTIVAL COMPARISON IN SOME MODERN VARIETIES OF ENGLISH ACROSS THE WORLD Faculty of Information Technology and Communication Sciences Master’s Thesis May 2020 ABSTRACT Terhi Hagman: Competing forms of adjectival comparison in some modern varieties of English across the world Master’s Thesis Tampere University Master's Programme in English Language and Literature May 2020 In English, there are two ways in which adjective comparison is normally expressed: either by adding the suffix -er to the adjectival stem, or by pre-positioning the adverb more to the adjective. The choice between the two alternatives depends on aspects such as the characteristics of the adjective, e.g. the number of syllables or the ending, or in some cases the complexity of the adjective phrase. In addition to these standard techniques, the speakers sometimes produce the so-called double forms, in which the periphrastic and inflectional structures are used simultaneously. Despite their occurrence, many grammars and speakers do not regard the form as acceptable. The objectives of this pro gradu are to analyse the three aforementioned structures and their regional differences in Present-Day English, as well as to consider possible reasons for any dissimilarities. The theoretical framework consists of theories on categorising and characterising World Englishes, and an overview of adjective comparison in Present-Day English as well as a synopsis of the diachronic developments. The study has been divided into two parts, in which the standard and hybrid structures are investigated separately. Quantitative methods are predominantly utilised in the present study. The empirical data was gathered from The Corpus of Global Web-Based English (the GloWbE), which allows the user to examine a variety of linguistic phenomena in different regional varieties of English.

Safety Vests for Jockeys: a Case Study of Primary and Dependent-Secondary Users Affecting the Evolution of Vest Design in the Australian Horse-Racing Industry
SAFETY VESTS FOR JOCKEYS: A CASE STUDY OF PRIMARY AND DEPENDENT-SECONDARY USERS AFFECTING THE EVOLUTION OF VEST DESIGN IN THE AUSTRALIAN HORSE-RACING INDUSTRY Lisa Giusti Gestri 2019 A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Swinburne University of Technology Melbourne, Australia 2 This page intentionally left blank 3 “Riding in a race is a feeling like no other. Riding is of the mind, of the body and of the soul. Physically, it fills you with adrenaline and puts you in a heightened state – a zone. It also elevates your spirit, takes you to places that ordinary life is less likely to.” (Michelle Payne in Payne & Harms, 2016, p.85) 4 Abstract Using a case study method, this thesis presents new insights into key contemporary pressures that are restricting the update of the design of Australian jockeys’ safety vests. The number of female jockeys has grown considerably and there has also been a consistent rate of serious injuries to jockeys; yet, despite the rapid and successful development of smart wearable technologies in the sports and health sectors, safety vests still need improvement. The Australian standards in use (ARB 1.1998 and the European Standard EN 13158) have not been significantly updated since early 2000s. The study compares the participants’ perspectives and the emerging development of smart wearable technologies in order to consider the adequacy of current design standards to accommodate the next generation of safety clothing and equipment in the Australian racing context. A qualitative research approach was adopted, which involved ethnographic methods of participant observations, a focus group and semi-structured interviews which informed the study and were compared with the relevant research literature in the field.
