  • The Biology and Ecology of Samson Fish Seriola Hippos
    The biology of Samson Fish Seriola hippos with emphasis on the sportfishery in Western Australia. By Andrew Jay Rowland This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Murdoch University 2009 DECLARATION I declare that the information contained in this thesis is the result of my own research unless otherwise cited. ……………………………………………………. Andrew Jay Rowland 2 Abstract This thesis had two overriding aims. The first was to describe the biology of Samson Fish Seriola hippos and therefore extend the knowledge and understanding of the genus Seriola. The second was to uses these data to develop strategies to better manage the fishery and, if appropriate, develop catch-and-release protocols for the S. hippos sportfishery. Trends exhibited by marginal increment analysis in the opaque zones of sectioned S. hippos otoliths, together with an otolith of a recaptured calcein injected fish, demonstrated that these opaque zones represent annual features. Thus, as with some other members of the genus, the number of opaque zones in sectioned otoliths of S. hippos are appropriate for determining age and growth parameters of this species. Seriola hippos displayed similar growth trajectories to other members of the genus. Early growth in S. hippos is rapid with this species reaching minimum legal length for retention (MML) of 600mm TL within the second year of life. After the first 5 years of life growth rates of each sex differ, with females growing faster and reaching a larger size at age than males. Thus, by 10, 15 and 20 years of age, the predicted fork lengths (and weights) for females were 1088 (17 kg), 1221 (24 kg) and 1311 mm (30 kg), respectively, compared with 1035 (15 kg), 1124 (19 kg) and 1167 mm (21 kg), respectively for males.

Perth-HK Students’ Anti-ELAB Concern Group Brisbane Internal Student Solidarity with Hong Kong Canberra Hong Kong Concern Adelaide – Stand with Hong Kong Once again, Australia Hong Kong Link would like to thank the committee for providing such a valuable opportunity for us to contribute to the inquiry and we thank the committee for working hard to consider this important piece of legislation during these challenging times. Here are some questions we have taken on notice and additional information that we have included in this additional submission. 1. What sort of threshold do you think would constitute human rights abuses? There has been a fair bit of outrage about the recent arrest of Martin Lee, Jimmy Lai and others in Hong Kong. Where would you suggest the line be drawn in terms of human rights abuses there that would trigger action under something like a global Magnitsky act? 2. Are there any Hong Kong Australian business people who receive benefit or who are benefited by their links to the Chinese Communist Party and mainland officials? And is there an understanding that, for their business interests to continue to be supported, they must remain silent about the erosion of democracy in Hong Kong? Further to that, does it go further, whereby these individuals actually contribute to the suppression of activists and/or the democracy movement in Hong Kong? If so, could those individuals be captured by potential Magnitsky style laws in Australia? 3.

  • Drew Pavlou - Submission to the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security Into National Security Threats on Campus
    Drew Pavlou - Submission to The Parliamentary Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security into National Security Threats on Campus 1. I write to the Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security regarding Chinese state interference at The University of Queensland which is pervasive and ongoing. In my experience as a campus human rights activist opposed to Chinese government atrocities, I believe universities like UQ are now so economically dependent on China that they are willing to censor Chinese government critics to safeguard positive ties. This authoritarian creep illustrates the insidious danger Chinese state interference poses to our national security and democratic way of life. 2. My story began last year when I held a peaceful campus sit-in at UQ on July 24th, 2019 calling for the university to divest from its close economic ties with China in response to the Chinese government’s crackdown on democratic protestors in Hong Kong and its genocidal campaign against the Uyghur ethnic minority. I had no experience as an activist – this was the first protest I had ever organized in my life. I was driven by a pressing sense of outrage at the images of police brutality being relayed from Hong Kong and the increasingly dire reports coming out of Xinjiang, and I was furious that many in public life chose to look the other way due to China’s economic importance while Uyghurs faced genocide. I had studied the history of the international community’s failure to prevent the Holocaust and the Rwandan Genocide, and I was tormented by the fear that we would again break the solemn vow we made in the aftermath of World War II: ‘’Never Again.’’ This was what drove me to organize a protest on July 24th, the university’s Market Day.

    MARKY DAWSON MARKY DAWSON VOX AND KEYS Pop, Rock’n’Roll, Blues Rox Management Ltd MARKY DAWSON Marky Dawson was born and raised in Broadstone, Dorset. Growing up surrounded by his dad’s impressive record collection it was almost inevitable that he would develop a love for music. And so he grew up with influences such as Ray Charles, Led Zeppelin, Billy Joel, Queen and Elton John, to name but a few. He started playing piano at age 14 and pretty soon started writing his own songs. He moved to London to get ‘spotted’ and he did get spotted, by his manager and publisher Adrian Rox. (Adrian also discovered Michael McIntyre during his days in the comedy business). Playing over 100 gigs in 2015 alone Marky has been serving his ‘apprenticeship’ doing solo gigs mainly in London and on the South Coast, but even as far afield as Austria (photo below at k.u.k in Bad Ischl). Rox Management Ltd A CD was released last autumn of piano/vocal songs called ‘First Takes’. The piano was recorded at Derek Nash’s studio (Jools Holland Rhythm & Blues Orchestra) and vocals and production done by Mike Peters (B*witched, Liberty X). It includes a seminal unplugged version of Queen’s ‘Radio Gaga’, along with 5 of Marky’s impressive originals. Over the last year Marky has guested with Ben Waters, Daniel Smith, John O’Leary/Alan Glen and supported Never The Bride on many occasions and also Ben Montague. Nikki Lambourn (NTB’s vocalist, photo left) is now also Marky’s vocal coach (she coaches the likes of Beverley Knight, Newton Faulkner).
