Newcastle War Years
Today we are going to have a look at Newcastle, New South Wales in 1939 when World War 11 started.
It was considered by some that the part Newcastle was to play in
the national war effort was inevitably this was due to the city’s heavy
industries represented the vital heart of the country’s ability to fight fire
with fire.
It wasn’t long before BHP, its subsidiaries and a surprising
wide array of smaller industrial plants were flat out making shells, gun
barrels, bombs and parts for everything from tanks to aircraft.
As the war progressed the NSW government pressed Newcastle back
into shipbuilding and repair business.
BHP chief Essington Lewis had anticipated Japan’s entry into the
war and the cities industries were ready to accelerate production after the
attack on Pearl Harbour in 1941.
War activity reached hectic levels in 1942 when Japanese submarines
prowled of the east coast sinking ships and attacking Newcastle and Sydney.
It was during this time that the RAAF established a base at
Williamstown in order to defend the oh so important industries in Newcastle. A seaplane
base was also established at Rathmines which is part of Lake Macquarie and the
US-built Catalina aircraft did long-range patrols and anti-submarine work.
During the war years military and civil defence infrastructure
appeared all over the Hunter, also air raid shelters popped up in streets and
tank traps were established on beaches and slit trenches were dung in schools
and parks.
Blackouts were enforced and many households dug their own
shelters.
Of course, many men signed up to serve their country, going overseas
to fight, while U S troops arrived in the city.
Women also went off to war with many joining the Land Army as
well as other military forces, operating searchlights and working in radar and communications
installations. While others filled the caps left by the men gone off to fight,
this was radical change that continued well into the postwar years.

Dingo
Well, here we are at another Monday and time to look at another
wild dog, this week it is the Australian Dingo.
Dingoes have a lifespan from as few as 3yrs to usually around
16yrs but some have been known to live for 20yrs.
The dingo is an ancient lineage of dog found in Australia,
however, compared with the skull of the
dog, the dingo possesses a longer muzzle, longer carnassial teeth, longer and
more slender canine teeth, larger auditory bullae, a flatter cranium with a
larger sagittal crest, and larger nuchal lines.
The dingo's three main coat colourations are light ginger or
tan, black and tan, or creamy white. The skull is wedge-shaped and appears
large in proportion to the body.
The dingo is closely related to the New Guinea singing dog. The
oldest remains of dingoes in Australia are around 3,500 years old.
A dingo pack usually consists of a mated pair, their offspring
from the current year, and sometimes offspring from the previous year.
Dingoes do not bark like a dog but howl, chortle, yelp, whine,
growl, chatter, snort, cough and purr.
Dingoes are largely terrestrial carnivores they have a broad diet including fresh meat, fish, eggs and carrion they occasionally eat plants and fruits. They're opportunistic hunters but will also scavenge food. The bulk of their diet is made up of meat: they eat kangaroos, wallabies, feral pigs, wombats, small mammals (rabbits, rodents), birds and lizards.
Their strong jaw and large
canines permit the dingo to procure and machinate rather tough prey, allowing
them to tear meat from carcasses and crush bones to obtain calcium
and fat.
Dingoes have a strict social hierarchy and regularly mate for life. Female dingoes have one annual breeding cycle, March to June. The dingo pack helps with the rearing of pups which are weaned at about 2 months, at which time the pups may be abandoned or can stay with the parents for up to a year. Dingo pups are fully grown by 7 months.
They are primarily killed by
humans, crocodiles, and sometimes by other canid species, such as jackals and
domestic dogs. They are also killed by Dingoes from other packs. Pups may be
taken by large birds of prey.
They are highly intelligent and
intuitive animals that have a high capacity to solve problems and plan.
With this high intelligence and
foresight comes a strong sense of self-awareness and independence.

Egypt
Well, we are moving out of Europe and into North Africa this is the second largest and second most populated continent after Asia. North Africa is naturally the northmost region of the African continent it is separated from the rest of Africa by the Sahara Desert.
Egypt is one of the most populated countries in Africa and the
Middle East, a great majority of the population live near the banks of the
river Nile. It is famous for its ancient civilisation and some of the world’s
most famous monuments such as the Pyramids and Great Sphinx.
It is a country linking northeast Africa with the Middle East,
dates to the time of the pharaohs.
The capital, Cairo, is home to Ottoman landmarks like Muhammad
Ali Mosque and the Egyptian Museum. It is set on the Nile River. At its heart
is Tahrir Square and the vast Egyptian Museum, a trove of antiquities including
royal mummies and gilded King Tutankhamun artifacts. Nearby, Giza is the site
of the iconic pyramids and Great Sphinx, dating to the 26th century BC. In
Gezira Island’s leafy Zamalek district, 187m Cairo Tower affords panoramic city
views.
The Egyptian pound is the official currency of Egypt. The 10 and 20-pound notes are made out of polymer plastic paper as of July 6, 2022.
The official language of Egypt is Arabic, and most Egyptians speak one of several vernacular dialects of that language. As is the case in other Arab countries, the spoken vernacular differs greatly from the literary language.
The national flag of Egypt is a tricolour consisting of the three equal horizontal red, white, and black bands of the Egyptian revolutionary flag that dates back to the 1952 Egyptian Revolution. The flag bears Egypt's national emblem, the Egyptian eagle of Saladin, centred in the white band.
While looking for the country’s national animal I got two responses
one being the Dorcas Gazell the other being the Steppe Eagle, which is the
country’s national bird.
The national flower of Egypt is the Egypt Lotus Flower. This stunning flower has been an important symbol in Egyptian culture for thousands of years, and it is often associated with rebirth and regeneration.
Football is the most
popular sport in Egypt, by football I mean soccer many Egyptians gather around
to watch various Egyptian clubs and the Egyptian national football team play on
an almost daily basis. Zamalek and Al Ahly are amongst the most popular in the
country, both of which are based in Cairo.
Throughout much of ancient
history Egyptian religion was polytheistic, meaning it recognized many
gods and goddesses, as well as a variety of other divine beings.
Now days most experts and media sources estimate approximately 90 percent of the population is Sunni Muslim and 10 percent is Christian. Scholars and NGOs estimate Shia Muslims comprise approximately 1 percent of the population. There are also small numbers of Dawoodi Bohra Muslims and Ahmadi Muslims.

Visual Snow Syndrome
Hi all today we are having a look at something called Visual
snow syndrome. This isn’t something I had heard off until recently. My
grandchild Sam was telling me about it as apparently Sam has this.
Visual snow syndrome is an uncommon neurological condition in
which the primary symptom is that affected individuals see persistent
flickering white, black, transparent, or coloured dots across the whole visual
field. Other common symptoms are palinopsia, enhanced entoptic phenomena,
photophobia, and tension headaches.
It can also be referred to as Persistent positive visual
phenomenon, visual static or aeropsia.
The cause seems to remain
unclear, but it is believed to be due to a problem with how your brain
processes visual images. The flickering tiny dots associated with the condition
are typically black and white, but they can be flashing, colored, or even
transparent.
It is not a disease that will just go away on its own. The
visual disturbances are unlikely to just get better without treatment, which
typically involves medications. The most regularly used medications for visual
snow syndrome are antiepileptic and antidepressant medications.
Over time the condition may worsen and could become debilitating to the suffer at some point, although not a mental health condition over time someone with the condition may experience depression.
For many people, visual snow syndrome is a chronic condition,
thankfully they will not go blind due to it. However, many suffers may also
have migraines and anxiety.
People with visual snow may
experience all or only a few symptoms, including light sensitivity and
tinnitus. These symptoms range in severity from mild to
debilitating. Living with this condition is a different experience for
everyone.
Sam being young thought for a long time that they way he saw
things was just the normal way and is for the large part kind of use to it.
Symptoms commonly appear during the late teenage years and
early adulthood. In one study the mean age of onset of symptoms was 21 years
old but it can occur at any age, in either gender, or in any race.

The very sinkable Boambee
Ok this week I am going to share a bit about the steamer Boambee
one unlucky vessel.
The 236-tonne wooden steamer was built in 1908 and by the time
it ran aground and was dismantled forty years later it had sunk four times,
including once at Newcastle’s wharf.
Records show that its first mishap happened at Tweed Heads on 20 December 1923 it was driven ashore by strong gale winds but was able to be refloated. Tweed Heads is a border town between New South Wales and Queensland.
Moving on, it is said to have
sunk at Clarence Town Wharf in 1939 while loaded with gravel and wooden
sleepers, again it was refloated only to sink again sometime during World War
11 at Hexham. Clarence Town is on the Williams River in New South Wales; the
town of Hexham is also in NSW. Hexham is about a half hour drive from where I live.
Later on, it was hit by a ship
in Newcastle Harbour and written off, however it would be bought by the Hunter
River Steamship Company in 1947 to be used on the Newcastle to Sydney trade.
On its first trip it sprang a
leak which was more than the pumps could handle so the captain decided to return
to Newcastle while it slowly sank. By the time it reached Newcastle Harbour it
was very low in the water and there were no tugs available to help. So, by the
time she reached the wharf she began to list and sank ten minutes after reaching
its berth.
It took five days, but she was
able to be refloated, repaired and renamed.
Now called the Illalong it
became the property of the Manning River Steamship Company. In March of 1948
while on route from Sydney to Newcastle with a cargo of brattice cloth for
coalminers it went too close inshore during a thick fog and ran aground at Nine
Mile Beach which is near Belmont.
This time it was written off
again and quickly dismantled

African Wild Dog
This week we are kicking of the series about wild dogs from
around the world and we will start with the African wild dog, also known as the
painted dog or Cape hunting dog.
The African wild dog has a colourful, patchy coat. They
have large bat-like ears and a bushy tail with a white tip, which may serve as
a flag to keep the pack in contact while hunting. Their markings are
as unique as a human fingerprint, making it easy to identify individuals.
This dog is native to sub-Saharan Africa
These wild dog packs have an 80% success rate when hunting,
thanks to high levels of communication.
They generally live up to the age of 11 when living in the wild.
It can also run up to 70km or 44mph this is the same as a
greyhound, over a long time. Of all large carnivores they are regarded as the
most efficient hunters as their targeted prey rarely escapes. They hunt for a
wide variety of prey, including gazelles and other antelopes, warthogs,
wildebeest calves, rats, and birds.
They like to live in packs averaging from seven to 15 members
and sometimes up to 40. Before the recent population decline, packs of up to
100 were recorded. Within the pack, there is a unique social structure.
They cooperate in taking care of the wounded and sick members,
there is a general lack of aggression exhibited between members of the pack,
and there is little intimidation among the social hierarchy.
Every hunting pack has a dominant pair. They are usually the only pair that remains monogamous for life. Wild dogs also have a large range of vocalizations that include a short bark of alarm, a rallying howl, and a bell-like contact call that can be heard over long distances. Elaborate greeting rituals are accompanied by twittering and whining.
They are pack animals that are quick to defend themselves
against any threatening animal. While they don't prey on humans and typically
approach them out of curiosity rather than aggression, it's best not to go
near them.

Greece
Good morning, everyone who read this, hope you are doing well
this week we are off to Greece.
People have lived in Greece for more than 5,000 years and it has
been considered a civilised country for 2,500 years.
Greece is a country in southeastern Europe with thousands of
islands throughout the Aegean and Ionian seas. Influential in ancient times,
it's often called the cradle of Western civilization.
The capital is Athens, which retains landmarks including the 5th-century B.C. Acropolis citadel with the Parthenon temple. Greece is also known for its beaches, from the black sands of Santorini to the party resorts of Mykonos.
The country has a population of around 11 million, the official currency is the euro. The euro
replaced the Greek modern drachma as Greece's official currency in 2002,
following the country's introduction into the Eurozone in 2001.
The national flag of Greece, popularly referred to as the Blue-and-White or the Cyan-and-White, is officially recognised by Greece as one of its national symbols and has 5 equal horizontal stripes of blue alternating with white. Blue and white are the national colours of Greece, as blue symbolizes the sky and seas and white denotes the purity of the Greek independence struggle. The cross represents the Christian religion.
Due to its deep connection to
the sea, it has adopted the dolphin as its national animal. Revered
in ancient mythology and folklore, the dolphin symbolizes intelligence,
harmony, and the maritime heritage of Greece.
The little owl is the
national bird of Greece, is also known as the owl of Athena and is believed to
provide knowledge and wisdom worthy of the goddess.
While looking for the national
flower of Greece I found some sites saying it is the Bear's Breech which
is also as the Sea Dock, Oyster Plant, and by its biological name, Acanthus
Mollis. Others said it was the lily. Specifically, the white lily is often
associated with purity and has historical significance in Greek culture.
Additionally, the oleander is also commonly linked to Greece, particularly in
its natural landscapes.
In ancient Greek religion and
mythology, there were 12 gods called Zeus, Hera, Poseidon,
Demeter, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Ares,
Hephaestus, Aphrodite, Hermes, and either Hestia or Dionysus.
Now days religion in Greece is
dominated by Christianity, particular the Greek Orthodox Church, which is
within the larger communion of the Eastern Orthodox Church. It represented 90%
of the total population in 2015 and is constitutionally recognized as the "prevailing
religion" of Greece.
Many people will think of the Trojan
Horse when thinking about Greece it was in case you do not know a wooden horse
said to have been used by the Greeks during the Trojan War to enter the city of
Troy and win the war.
Also, many people when they think of Greece will comment that it
is home to the first Olympic games, way back when the ancient Games were staged
in Olympia, Greece, from 776 BC through 393 AD, it took 1503 years for the
Olympics to return.
The first modern Olympics were held in Athens, Greece, in 1896.
The man responsible for its rebirth was a Frenchman named Baron Pierre de
Coubertin, who presented the idea in 1894.
That will do for Greece.

Epileptic Seizures
Hello everyone, today I am going to tell you about the four main types of epilepsy seizures.
Starting with the type of seizure most people thing of when they
think of an epileptic seizure.
This seizure is now called a Generalised tonic-clonic seizure,
it was once known as a grand mal seizure and are the most recognised.
The seizure starts with a sudden loss of consciousness. The
person’s body then becomes stiff, followed by jerking of the muscles. They also
may turn red or blue, bite their tongue and lose control of their bladder.
When they regain consciousness the suffered may be confused,
drowsy or agitated, it is not uncommon for them to not remember what happened
and have a headache.
Next, we have absence seizures, these are the type of seizure my
nephew Dawson suffers from. They used to be known as petit mal seizures they
usually start in childhood but can happen in adults as well. They are brief and
involve staring, loss of expression, unresponsiveness and stopping activity.
Sometimes eye blinking or upward eye movements are seen. The person usually
recovers straight away and continues their previous activity, without
remembering the seizure.
There is also something called focal seizures, previously known
as 'partial seizures', these start in one area of the brain and affect the
parts of the body controlled by that area of the brain. The seizure may involve
unusual movements, feelings, sensations, or behaviours. People can have
different levels of consciousness during focal seizures.
Lastly there are febrile convulsions are seizures are associated
with an illness causing a fever, such as a viral infection. They are generally
harmless and do not require special or long-term treatment. Febrile convulsions
are common, happening in about 3 in 100 healthy children up to 6 years old.
If they don’t have any additional risk factors for epilepsy,
children who have febrile convulsions have a similar risk of developing
epilepsy to the rest of the population.
Sometimes people with epilepsy may have changes in their behaviour.
They also may have symptoms of psychosis.
Most people with epilepsy tend to have the same type of seizure
each time. Symptoms are usually similar from episode to episode.
Some people with focal seizures have warning signs in the
moments before a seizure begins. These warning signs are known as aura.
Warning signs might include a feeling in the stomach. Or they
might include emotions such as fear. Some people might feel deja vu. Auras also
might be a taste or a smell. They might even be visual, such as a steady or
flashing light, a colour, or a shape. Some people may experience dizziness and
loss of balance. And some people may see things that aren't there, known as
hallucinations.
