    A List of Australia's big Things Drawn from the Wikipedia article Australia's Big Things Australian Capital New South Wales Victoria Territory Western Australia South Australia Tasmania Northern Territory Australian Capital Territory Name Location Notes Located in the Belconnen Fresh Food Giant Markets, the Giant Mushroom shelters a Mushroom Belconnen children's playground. It was officially launched in 1998 by the ACT Chief Minister. Located at the main entrance to Giant Owl Belconnen town centre, the statue cost Belconnen $400,000 and was built by Melbourne sculptor Bruce Armstrong.[3] New South Wales Name Location Notes A bull ant sculpture designed by artist Pro Hart, which was erected in 1980 and originally stood at the Stephens Creek Hotel. It was moved to its current location, Big Ant Broken Hill next to the Tourist Information Centre in Broken Hill, after being donated to the city in 1990. Located in the middle of an orchard about 3km north of Batlow, without public Big Apple Batlow access. Only its top is visible from Batlow- Tumut Road, as it is largely blocked by apple trees. Big Apple Yerrinbool Visible from the Hume Highway Big Avocado Duranbah Located at Tropical Fruit World. Located alongside the Kew Visitor Information Centre. The original sculpture The Big Axe Kew was replaced in 2002 as a result of ant induced damage. This 1/40 scale model of Uluru was formerly an attraction at Leyland Brothers World, and now forms the roof of the Rock Restaurant. Technically not a "Big Big Ayers North Arm Cove Thing" (as it is substantially smaller than Rock the item it is modelled on), the Rock Restaurant is loosely grouped with the big things as an object of roadside art.

  • Probablemente El Diablo: El Terror Elíptico De La Séptima Víctima
    PROBABLEMENTE EL DIABLO: EL TERROR ELÍPTICO DE LA SÉPTIMA VÍCTIMA Francisco García Gómez Universidad de Málaga RESUMEN La séptima víctima, la primera película dirigida por Mark Robson, constituye un magnífico ejemplo de la concepción del terror que tenía el productor Val Lewton. Su cuarto filme para la RKO, el primero no dirigido por Jacques Tourneur, pone de manifiesto que Lewton era el auténtico responsable de su ciclo fantástico. PALABRAS CLAVE: RKO, Val Lewton, Mark Robson, serie B, terror, satanismo, paladismo. ABSTRACT «Probably the Devil: The Elliptical Terror in The Seventh Victim». The Seventh Victim, first film directed by Mark Robson, is a magnificent example of the producer Val Lewton’s terror concept. His fourth RKO film, the first without Jacques Tourneur, reveals that Lewton was the genuine responsible of his fantastic cycle. KEY WORDS : RKO, Val Lewton, Mark Robson, B Film, terror, satanism, paladism. 163 Una película a redescubrir y reivindicar, ése es el caso de La séptima víctima (The Seventh Victim, 1943), la cuarta del ciclo de nueve cintas de terror de serie B producidas por Val Lewton en la RKO entre 1942 y 19461. Dirigida por Mark Robson en su debut como realizador, fue además la primera cuya dirección no corrió a cargo de Jacques Tourneur, tras La mujer pantera (Cat People, 1942), Yo anduve con un zombi (I Walked with a Zombie, 1943) y El hombre leopardo (The Leopard Man, 1943). Precisamente a consecuencia de los grandes éxitos de público obtenidos con estas tres, el estudio decidió separar al tándem Lewton-Tourneur, convencido de que rendirían el doble por separado, poniendo en seguida al francés al frente de mayores presupuestos.

    Last Updated: July 21 www.comedychannel.com.au AUGUST 2009 HIGHLIGHTS 1. Summer Heights High 2. Everybody Hates Chris (Series 1) 3. The Best Of British Summer Heights High SUBSCRIPTION TV PREMIERE Thursdays at 8.30pm from August 13 Following the internationally acclaimed hit series WE CAN BE HEROES about the search for Australian on the Year, the award-winning high-school mockumentary SUMMER HEIGHTS HIGH spotlights the incisive observation and piercing comedy of Chris Lilley, who both wrote the series and portrays all three main characters. Filmed in a documentary style, with non-actors playing supporting characters Chris Lilley reveals what really happens in an average Australian high school as epitomised by its three main protagonists: Mr G - “Two words, deal with it” - The Megalomaniac "Director of Performing Arts" Mr G who, despite relentless opposition, cancels the traditional school musical so that he can write his own original "Arena Spectacular". Ja'mie King - “I don’t want to be a bitch, but…” - A self-absorbed, privileged teenager who is taking part in a swap scheme to bridge the divide between state and private schools, but finds she is way out of her comfort zone. Jonah Takalua - “Puck you Miss” - A contemptuous Tongan break-dancer and graffitist who was previously expelled for setting fire to lockers and defacing the principal's car. Hilarious, absurd and frequently shocking, SUMMER HEIGHTS HIGH reveals a world where the seemingly huge traumas of friendship, staff politics, schoolwork and relationships are the fabric of life in the school universe. SUMMER HEIGHTS HIGH is followed at 9pm by Australian sketch comedy at it’s finest with BIG BITE – see the early days of Chris Lilley’s character Mr G (also look out for Deal Or No Deal’s Andrew O’Keefe).
