I know her! On the news today @mcookhistory talking on @ABC News Breakfast with Lisa Millar about the Qld flood anniversary #environmentalhistory #meanjin
#InASA2022 presentation done - looking forward to the next two days of presentations. #sporthistory #regionalsport #sportpolicy
Thoroughly enjoyed Dr Andrea Connor’s session on the @Whitlam_Inst Whitlam Prime Ministerial Collection this morning. Resisting nostalgia, contemporary relevance, and the temporal envelope. #InASA2022 #ItsTimeAgain

Australia does not have a national postdoc scheme. @arc_gov_au Aust Postdoc Fellowship (APD) ended in 2011. DECRA replaced it, but few recent PhDs apply. APD was for PhDs < 3 yrs exp. 110 grants for 3 yrs. ARC also targeted 15% Discovery $ to "ECR-only" projects (< 5 yrs PhD) 1/n

We’re raising money for @boeknow and Frontier War Stories.
Boe recently had his podcast equipment stolen out of his car and we’d like a hand replacing his gear so he can get back to making the show.

@ConversationEDU panel - guess who are included as the ‘nation’s biggest thinkers’ @Feministingoz @ZoraSimic - we lower the tone and ZSim raised it! Nice work @EddieSynot
I am thrilled to receive the @nationallibraryaus Carol Moya Mills scholarship for 2023. My focus is - The 1982 Brisbane Commonwealth Games: exploring event impact, legacy, and memory outside the city limits. #sporthistory #Queenslandhistory #thattimeiattemptedaphd #nla #thankful

…and yet there’s ‘no market’ for my Big Things book. (Already written, btw, if any publishers are interested)!#BigThings
As part of a jam-packed 2022 Sunshine Coast Open House program, Dr Amy Clarke will be presenting on 'Big Things' in architecture, history, and heritage at the Banana Bender on 6 October. I just grabbed a ticket. See you there.

I often wonder if International Women’s Day organisers ever consider the logistics behind women making it to a breakfast event at 7am.

Many homes flooded this year that didn’t in 2011 – and vice versa. But why?
As @usceduau's @mcookhistory explains, no two floods are the same. The water may follow familiar paths, but natural and human factors alter flood behaviour each time.

It's been a busy week and I am told it is only Thursday! We have had more rain and the Bremer River is rising - again! And I did this:

Known to be prone to flooding, in the 70s Brisbane’s South Bank was largely undeveloped. It's now home to Queensland’s major cultural institutions, many of which have been inundated.

This right here - perfect reading for the repeat of the 2011 timeline we are now apparently reliving! @ResearchUSC_AU @usceduau
Nothing like reliving your own research!
