Tuesday, January 25, 2005 She's successful, she has a great career, she reads Not The West Evelyn is a physiotherapist in a sports injury centre and reads Not The West every day. "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!"

  • Calls for Special Australian of the Year Award for Our Nation's Health Workers
    Media Release Public Health Association of Australia 29 July 2020 Calls for special Australian of the Year Award for our nation’s health workers As Australia continues to battle our biggest-ever health crisis, The Public Health Association of Australia (PHAA) is calling for the Prime Minister to consider a special one-off award to recognise the life-saving work of our nation’s front-line health care workers and public health workers. Nominations for the 2021 Australian of the Year Awards close this week (Friday 31 July), and each year thousands of worthy individuals are nominated for going above and beyond in their chosen field or pursuits. PHAA CEO, Terry Slevin, says the events of the past six months have demonstrated the incredibly selfless work of the many thousands of people who have turned up for work every day – putting their own lives on the line in many cases – to help save the lives of so many fellow Australians. ‘It is in times like these that we see the best of people. People who dedicate their lives to the wellbeing of others in these times of terrible distress and tragic loss,’ Mr Slevin said. ‘The majority of our health workforce are not highly-paid. Few seek recognition or reward. They make so many personal sacrifices to keep us safe and well. And in the process, many hundreds have themselves succumbed to COVID-19,’ Mr Slevin said. ‘Our public health workers deserve a significant acknowledgement – the tireless work this year by contact tracers, researchers, epidemiologists, outbreak investigators and policy experts has been invaluable.

We have the lowest population density in the world, with only two people per square kilometre. Australia is one of the world’s oldest land masses. It is the sixth largest country in the world. It is also the driest inhabited continent, so in most parts of Australia water is a very precious resource. Much of the land has poor soil, with only 6 per cent suitable for agriculture. The dry inland areas are called ‘the Australia is one of the world’s oldest land masses. outback’. There is great respect for people who live and work in these remote and harsh environments. Many of It is the sixth largest country in the world. them have become part of Australian folklore. Because Australia is such a large country, the climate varies in different parts of the continent. There are tropical regions in the north of Australia and deserts in the centre. Further south, the temperatures can change from cool winters with mountain snow, to heatwaves in summer. In addition to the six states and two mainland territories, the Australian Government also administers, as territories, Ashmore and Cartier Islands, Christmas Island, the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Jervis Bay Territory, the Coral Sea Islands, Heard Island and McDonald Islands in the Australian Antarctic Territory, and Norfolk Island.

Australia’s most admired, part 2 Recently, we revealed that US President Barack Obama was the public figure most admired by Australians in 2013 — one of seven politicians (foreign and home-grown) to feature among the 10 people Aussies admire the most. But while the current Budget frenzy may suggest otherwise, there’s more to life than politics, and plenty of non-political public figures also inspired our admiration last year… That’s entertainment Entertainers are the second-most admired category, with 20.1% of Aussies naming at least one person from this field. Generation Z is by far the group most likely to nominate an entertainer (39.5%) as one of their most admired public figures; Pre-Boomers (5.0%) the least likely. Australia’s own Hugh Jackman tops the list of most admired entertainers, ahead of a cavalcade of US stars: Oprah Winfrey, Ellen Degeneres, Angelina Jolie and Pink. All are more popular with women than men, and all were named more often than esteemed political figures such as Gough Whitlam and Bob Hawke. What kind of public figures do Australians admire most?

The Centre’s leading researchers in biomaterials and advanced fabrication technologies will join Professor Wood for a day of activities to explore wound healing strategies, the creation of artificial skin, and developing practical applications in a clinical environment. Professor Wood is one of Australia’s most innovative and respected surgeons and researchers, and is most well known for her pioneering work in developing the ‘spray-on skin’ technique, and her outstanding efforts to treat victims of the 2002 Bali Bombings. ACES Director Professor Gordon Wallace said he was thrilled to have the opportunity to bring together researchers from a variety of fields to network in this important area of medicine. “Fiona and I are both passionate about collaborating across disciplines, as it allows us to combine a range of critical research strengths, ensuring we have the full picture when we translate our research to improve clinical outcomes,” Gordon said. “We will use the day to showcase our ACES leading research in biomaterials and advanced fabrication technologies and learn from Fiona’s team about burn care, trauma and scar reconstruction, to enable us to then share ideas on how we can improve wound healing in real life scenarios,” Gordon said.

On display was the role the University plays in the community and how it brings people together to make positive change. The group, made up of musicians from the Conservatorium of Music and volunteers, 16 marched through the Hay Street and Murray Street malls, using their instruments and voices to draw attention to an issue affecting too many people in our city. It was a special, unifying moment that encouraged people to stop, look, listen and reflect. Whether it is through the power of one or the power of many, countless members of the UWA community – alumni, students and staff – strive each day to make a better world for us all.
