Sermon notes Text: Psalm 11 If you had to rate our world - its problems and tragedies and on the other hand its beauty, wealth and opportunities - unbelievably bad to wonderful and beautifully good - say from one to seven, what score would you give it? (Take a show of hands: 'Now you have to choose one number!') Of course, many or perhaps most of us would like to say it's both bad and good. It's a world of violence and terror and poverty but also human beings on average have never been better off. (Take a journey around the world with the recent news). · University dropout with a couple of ideas can build a corporation - Microsoft - with an annual income greater than the world's tenth largest economy · But there is mass starvation, killings, abductions, rapes and forced slavery in Southern Sudan · The killings in West and Southwest Africa - with guns supplied from Britain and other Western nations. AIDS - eastern African countries, Cambodia etc. Indonesia: 'Christians' and Muslims and the army are involved in killing each other - Ambon and East Timor. Slavery on the Indian subcontinent. · Refugees. For example, Diego Garcia: do you know what did the U.S. and Britain did with the Ilois people, who were relocated to Mauritius and are rotting in slums there? And how they covered it up? (See John Pilger's Hidden Agendas, pp. 20-22).

Inside Iowa State September 8, 2000 NOTE: James Olson died in September of 2000. Olson gets an 'A' in vitamin research by Teddi Barron A is for Olson. He worked by the side of three Nobel Laureates, served as the "vitamin A guy" on committees that recommend our daily requirements, carried the science of biochemistry to a nation developing new universities and advised NASA on how much vitamin A to pack for a trip to Mars and back. Oh, yeah. Did we mention that James Olson also developed a test used worldwide to identify vitamin A deficiency, which is a serious problem in developing countries and a leading cause of preventable blindness? This Distinguished Professor of Liberal Arts and Sciences in biochemistry has yet to put the brakes on a career that spans five decades and four continents. He did, however, slow down long enough last November to return to Thailand for an honorary doctorate from Mahidol University in Bangkok. The school honored Olson for his scientific achievements and for his work there 30 years ago when he was part of a successful Rockefeller Foundation project to develop universities. While in Thailand, Olson became interested in international nutrition. "Before, I was a conventional university research scientist. I was interested in mechanisms of things and what specific molecules do," he said. "I'm still interested in that, but in the international realm, I thought I should use basic knowledge in biochemistry and nutrition especially about vitamin A in a way that was helpful socially."

Des techniques et procédés aussi ordinaires que la réfrigération industrielle, le système de mélange pour le transport du ciment et le cubitainer normalisé pour le vin ont été conçus en Australie. L'Australie imprime ses billets de banque sur du polymère, pas sur du papier, et plusieurs autres pays commencent à utiliser cette technique. Lorsque des personnes dans le monde utilisent le téléphone ou l'Internet, elles dépendent de recherches de base concernant des scientifiques qui effectuent leurs travaux en Australie. Les Australiens ont adopté l'Internet rapidement et de nombreux sites australiens de la Toile figurent sur les "super listes", en particulier ceux qui concernent la recherche universitaire. Certaines inventions australiennes ne concernent pas la vie quotidienne : des ciseaux génétiques pour l'ingénierie génétique; le procédé Synroc pour l'entreposage des déchets radioactifs; le système Interscan, système à micro-ondes pour l'atterrissage des avions; l'exploration des protons rapides pour la recherche sur les tissus et les cellules vivantes; et les nano-machines pour les biosciences. Le thème de la découverte C'est une expédition scientifique qui a entraîné le navigateur jusqu'aux rivages de l'Australie en 1770, un événement qui a conduit directement à la colonisation du continent en 1788.

Radio National with Norman Swan Howard Florey Part Two Monday 21 September 1998 Summary: This is the second of a two part series on Howard Florey. It explores the wonderful and bizarre way of how penicillin found its way from mould to miracle drug. Norman Swan: Welcome to the program, which is the second of Sharon Carleton's two-part series marking the centenary of Howard Florey's birth this month. Florey was an Australian Nobel Laureate. He won it for his work in recognising the potential of penicillin, something which Alexander Fleming had failed to do, and then developing it into a drug which helped the allies win the war. Yet Florey just isn't recognised in the way, as you're about to hear from Sharon, in the way he ought to be. Douglas Ritchie: Oh I learned that God didn't want me, he didn't want me upstairs with him and his mates, and the Devil didn't want me downstairs with his mates. So they whacked penicillin into me and that kept me alive. Sharon Carleton: A massive 35% of all antibiotics used in Australia today are penicillin-based. And 70-year-old Douglas Ritchie from Canberra was just one of the 50-million or so people around the world whose lives have been saved by it. Mr Ritchie contracted lysteria meningitis. Douglas Ritchie: I sort of half woke up; there seemed to be an open space with a line drawn across it. On one side of this line was death and the other side was life. I thought to myself, 'I don't give a damn which way I go.'

Radio National with Norman Swan Howard Florey Part One Monday 14 September 1998 Summary: This is part one of a two part special feature on Howard Florey and Penicillin. This first programme looks at Florey the man and into his broad ranging achievements, not only his triumphant work with penicillin. Norman Swan: Welcome to the program. Today, the first of a two-part series made by Sharon Carleton, marking the 100th anniversary of the birth of a very important Australian, whose work has changed our lives, and indeed often saved them. Della Furlong: Phillip started showing symptoms Friday night; we thought he was just coming down with the 'fluÆ, he had chills and headaches, he was nauseous, he didn't want dinner. Saturday morning I woke up and I heard this funny moaning sound, and I came downstairs and had a look in his room and he was just on the floor, and I thought he was having a fit or a spasm or something, because his head was thrown back and he was moaning and there was vomit around his head. And one of us just said 'Oh quick, ring the ambulance' because I was trying to call Phillip, I was talking to him but he wasn't responding? Sharon Carleton: Fourteen-year-old Sydney schoolboy, Phillip Furlong, had contracted meningococcal septicaemia. Before the discovery of penicillin he would certainly have died. Today, despite all the other antibiotics penicillin has spawned, penicillin was still used as part of the arsenal of drugs that saved him.
