22.01.2022 On a Saturday afternoon during October this year, Graham Keith Jackson had just walked outside his Ilfracombe property when he stood on something and felt a s...ting. Looking down, he saw a brown snake underneath his foot and when he reacted instinctively to kick it away, he felt another sting. He had just been bitten twice on the toe by one of the world’s most deadly snakes. Keith rang his wife Rhonda to alert her, and she immediately called Triple Zero (000). Knowing this would be a life or death situation, she then called Keith’s boss George and his wife Jacqui who were nearby and rushed to his aid. QAS Emergency Medical Dispatcher (EMD) Kirsty got in touch with Jacqui at the scene to provide imperative first aid over the phone, keeping Keith calm until the ambulance arrived this proved to be a life-saving effort. The Jackson’s Ilfracombe property is located 29km from Longreach Hospital and paramedics rushed to arrive and treat Keith, realising the seriousness of the situation. As they were about to whisk him away to hospital, the unthinkable happened. Keith went into respiratory arrest and stopped breathing. He was successfully resuscitated by paramedics Frank and Ryan and made it to Longreach Hospital alive. The fight for life didn’t stop here and Keith had a long road to recovery ahead of him when he was airlifted through to Rockhampton Hospital later that afternoon. Being bitten twice by a brown snake in rural Queensland and living to tell the tale is one that will stick in everyone's minds for a long time and yesterday a recovered Keith managed to drop by the Longreach Station to catch up with officers Frank and Ryan.

12.01.2022 Hallowe'en cometh - and so might the Drop Bear. Australian Museum - The Drop Bear legend tells of a large, arboreal, predatory marsupial related to the Koala that 'drops' on its prey. It is said to be around the size of a leopard or a very large dog.... Drop Bears supposedly hunt by ambushing ground dwelling animals from above, waiting up to four hours to make a surprise kill. The story goes, bushwalkers will be out enjoying the great outdoors, only to be 'dropped on' by drop bears, resulting in injury including lacerations and occasionally bites. Most attacks are considered accidental and there are no stories of incidents being fatal. Some say there are Drop Bear repellents, including forks in the hair or Vegemite or toothpaste spread behind the ears. However, there is no evidence to suggest that any such repellents work. : Carl Bento

02.01.2022 Phar Lap's Melbourne Cup victory came in 1930 - and the #NFSA has compiled three surviving films of the race to give a new, multi-camera ending. There's no existing audio of the 1930 race, so this comes from a documentary, The Mighty Conqueror (Neville Macken and Paulette McDonagh, 1931) #NFSAOnline #PharLap #MelbourneCup http://bit.ly/NFSAPharLap
