Via ZOOM, Running Deep: An Australian Submarine Life
Jun 27, 2023
From conducting top-secret missions to making history commanding the farthest deployment of Australian submarine service, Commodore Peter Scott depicts what it takes to be a Submariner. Over a decorated 34-year career, Commodore Scott served in 10 submarines, passed the most demanding military command course in the world and served as the Head of Profession of the Submarine Arm of the Royal Australian Navy. During that time his character was forged by the challenges of naval service, success and failure as a leader, catastrophic onboard disasters while dived, and life-threatening traumas. Along the way, he also endured personal battles with self-doubt, addiction, depression and anxiety. Photo: Courtesy of Fremantle Press In this honest and enlightening tale, he shares his quest for self-acceptance, and for the courage, commitment and compassion to lead the warriors of Australia’s Silent Service. M.C. Ian Bentley Praise For The Book ‘… an absorbing, often searing account of the life of a submariner and a Navy leader. Peter’s story chronicles the modern life of our critical strategic deterrent – the RAN’s submarine arm.’ General the Honourable Sir Peter Cosgrove AK AC (Mil) CVO MC (Retd) ‘Personal and full of integrity, a great account of the ups and downs of serving Australia as an outstanding submariner.’ Air Chief Marshal Sir Angus Houston AK, AFC (Ret’d) |

Lille Fro, At Kooyong
Jul 18, 2023
Tamara is the founder and executive director of Lille Fro.
In 2008, Tamara packed up corporate life to work on her own project. While in Asia and with time on her side, Tamara pulled out a map, closed her eyes and pointed to a spot. Her finger landed on Mt Everest, Nepal.
Captivated by the Himalayas, Tamara was inspired to climb the perfect peak. A search which lead her to Ladakh in the north of India.
On one climbing trip, Tamara met a little girl living in destitute circumstances. Like many children in her village, this child had never been to school. Tamara decided to pay for her education. Seeing first hand the difference she had made to this child's life, Tamara realised she could not turn her back on other children in similar circumstances. The seed had been planted and Lille Fro had begun.

What Is Foretold About Global Temperature Change? At Kooyong LTC
Aug 29, 2023
Similar Natural Climate Cycles of the Past Millennium in Central Europe, the Poles and East Asia; what do they tell and foretell about global temperature change? Quantitative study of climate cycles shows that much of the warming of the past century appears to be independent of changes in atmospheric CO2; while CO2 is a greenhouse gas and must influence global warming, the natural cycles indicate that future warming will not be solely a function of CO2. A projection to year 2100 predicts global temperature changes different from those provided by current climate models.
*Note: Michael will speak 'strictly as a scientist not a political player.'*
Michael Asten is a Professor of geophysics, now retired after 23 years in School of Earth Atmosphere and Environment, Monash University, Melbourne. Prior to that he was a Senior Principal Geophysicist in BHP with 18 years experience in world-wide programs of research and practice of methods for the search for new mineral resources. In 2021 he served as an Expert Reviewer for the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report on climate change. He has published 214 scientific papers and has various research awards from the Australian SEG, BHP and CSIRO for various innovations.

By ZOOM, Football's Forgotten Years
Sep 26, 2023
'For almost 100 years, the AFL competition has been deemed to have started in 1897 when the VFL was formed after eight clubs seceded from the VFA. Colin Carter is a former AFL Commissioner (1993-2007), and Geelong President (2011-2020). Before he joined the AFL Commission he was a strategic planning consultant to the VFL, responsible for such seminal issues as the structure of the national competition, the draft and salary cap, and the restoration of relations between the League and the Melbourne Cricket Club which saw the development of the Great Southern Stand. In 2021, he was commissioned by the AFL to write a position paper on the potential of a Tasmanian-based AFL club. Although born in Western Australia, he is a true-blue Geelong supporter. 'Colin Carter is a decorated football administrator who has turned his mind to the history of the game, explaining in clear terms when Victoria’s football competition began and why it is the precursor of today’s AFL competition. Colin’s case for recognising the years from 1870 to 1896, an important history lost through politics and time, is supported by facts. Supporters should approach this book with open minds and lift their eyes to the great truth—the AFL is the oldest football competition in the world.' 'The Carter argument is compelling. Clearly the AFL was born of the VFA. The defection of eight clubs didn’t erase their histories pre-1897. Colin’s push maybe unpalatable with clubs whose place in premiership tallies will be adjusted negatively but a true history of the game’s origins is far more important. Clearly 1870 is the AFL competition’s birthdate.' M.C. David Rush **Please Wear Your Football Colours: eg: scarf, beanie** Photo Credit : Rodger Wang |

Colin Carter, a former AFL Commissioner and Geelong Club President, has written a book that challenges the AFL’s view of its history. The book is titled Football’s Forgotten Years – Reclaiming the AFL Competition’s Earliest Era – 1870 to 1896.

'Michael Valos: There has been a lot of academic research into the benefits and risks of humour and academic theories have developed.

His new life combines honorary work at Deakin University and developing a number of talks and short courses ' · “Humour for leaders.” · “Improving societies critical analysis skills” · “Dangers of not understanding science.” · “Overcoming Media disinformation” . “Skills for life success” 'The content of his talk, and his entertaining style, certainly had the audience laughing. But his talk had a more serious message, presented in an engaging manner, of how humour can be used as a management tool'.

Melbourne Cup Day
Nov 07, 2023
'The most well-known horse racing occasion in Australia is Melbourne Cup Day. It has been contested at Melbourne's Flemington Racecourse on the first Tuesday in November since 1861. In the state of Victoria, it is a yearly holiday. It is stated that this 3,200-metre handicap race, known as "the race that stops the nation," is the richest "two-mile" handicap in the world and one of the wealthiest turf events. It is open to horses aged three and older. At Flemington Racecourse, there are typically more than 100,000 spectators, and the race is broadcast live to an estimated 650 million viewers worldwide. Did you know? Phillip Island, which is about 135 kilometres south-east of Melbourne and is better known for its penguin colonies, was the home of Wollomai, the 1875 winner. Animals used to be swum across to the Narrows in ancient times, before there was a ferry service running between Phillip Island and San Remo. Photo: Mike Kotsch via Unsplash
