It might be 6am on the Gold Coast, but champagne was already popping up in Levi’s household.

We’ve achieved a Commonwealth Games medal, not many people can do that in their lives, let alone have their sister next to each other.” [ Maddi Levi had a great tournament for the Australians.

When you are asked, “What is it?” this weekend, here’s your answer: Long March 5B, a 44,000-pound rocket body spinning toward Earth. But scientists aren’t sure when and where this debris is — from the Chinese launch last Sunday Wentian space station module — about to land. The Aerospace Corporation did release the latest prediction path for the debris – with the disclaimer that it’s too early to be sure. Experts believe that 20 percent to 40 percent of the massive rocket’s body mass will survive its fiery journey through Earth’s atmosphere to the planet’s surface, but not intact. Seventy percent of the planet is covered in oceans, so the odds are that whatever remains of the rocket will land in water, but that’s not guaranteed. Shrugging in response to the potential danger of the Long March 5B debris is nothing new. Aaron Boley, co-director of the Outer Space Institute and planetary astronomer at the University of British Columbia, said about 70 percent of rockets that orbit and r

Qantas passengers queued at Sydney Airport last month. Photo: Louise Kennerley Frank Zappa is always great for quotes. The legendary jazz-rockers of the ’60s usually had something to say, mostly insightful, sometimes quirky. I’ve always loved his quotes about the country, and what defines it. “You can’t be a real country,” he said, “unless you have beer, and airlines.” It’s kind of a throwaway line, but it rings true right away. Of course, that’s discounting all the beautiful countries where they don’t drink beer, and he keeps mentioning nuclear weapons, but let’s ignore that for a second. Here in Australia at least, we can understand it. We have a lot of different beers, and we are quite proud of them (if at times an understatement). And we also have airlines. Qantas. Without realizing it, we are proud of Qantas, and what the airline says about us as a nation. This is a startup company, a successful company, a company that represents courage and adventure and ingen

Across Europe, signs of distress multiply as Russia’s war in Ukraine drags on: Food banks in Italy feed more people, German officials turn off air conditioning as they prepare plans to ration natural gas and restart coal plants. Key points: Just as Europe is recovering from the pandemic, its economic future looks uncertain as Russia’s war in Ukraine continues Meanwhile, high energy costs, fueled by the war, benefited the Kremlin and kept the ruble But in the long run, economists say, Russia will pay a heavy price for its war A giant utility is asking for a taxpayer bailout, and more to come. Dairy companies wonder how they are going to pasteurize milk. The euro has slumped to a 20-year low against the dollar, and recession predictions are on the rise. Those pressure points are signs of how the conflict — and the fact that the Kremlin is gradually suffocating the natural gas that keeps industry humming — is provoking an energy crisis in Europe and increasing the likelihood of plunging

Two and a Half Men star Angus T. Jones was spotted out for dinner in Los Angeles last week in his first public appearance in nearly a year. The former child star, now 28, was caught on camera treating his sister Otto to a barbecue dinner last Thursday in the San Gabriel Valley, LA. Jones, best known for playing adorable little Jake Harper on the hit CBS sitcom, was almost unrecognizable in his gray beanie, glasses, and long bushy beard, which has grown significantly since he was last seen in public in August 2021. Two and a Half Men star Angus T. Jones was spotted having dinner with his younger brother Otto in Los Angeles last week, in a rare public appearance for the former child star.

A forgotten victim of the Warriors’ two-and-a-half year stay in Australia was the 2005 Nissan Tiida. Second rower Josh Curran didn’t think twice before parking his car outside the club offices at Mt Smart Stadium in March 2020, thinking the team would only be in Australia for about a month before returning to Auckland. wishful thinking. The 23-year-old driver finally returned to his car late last month and found it parked exactly as he left it, although it looked a little uglier to wear. “There’s actually mold growing around the wheel,” Curran told NRL.com. The car is dead. Flat tire, low battery.

A new investigative report out Tuesday found that long-standing COVID-19 patients are traveling overseas to try expensive and untested treatments for their symptoms, including screening their blood. But at least some experts are concerned about the trend, warning that this treatment lacks solid evidence to support its claimed benefits. The report is a collaboration between The BMJ and ITV News. The authors visited or interviewed patients who went to clinics in Cyprus, Germany and Switzerland hoping to find relief for lingering post-covid symptoms. These symptoms tend to include, but are not limited to, persistent fatigue, breathing problems, and cognitive dysfunction, or brain fog. The main treatment offered by this clinic is called apheresis. The patient’s blood is drawn, which is then “washed” and broken down into its different components of plasma and red blood cells. The blood is then recombined and finally given back to the patient via a different vein. The treatment is supp

Whether it’s a late night knock on their hotel door or a phone call from Billy Slater, 12 months have passed for the last minute calls of Queensland’s Tom Dearden and Corey Oates. Both at different stages of their NRL careers, the pair have gone through a similar but very different journey in the past year to take their place in the Ampol Country of Origin decider. For Dearden, who came to the Origin arena on his debut, the past year has included going from the next best-half Broncos prodigy to being an outcast, then moving north to Townsville to relaunch his career. With just four wins in 22 appearances in three difficult seasons at the Broncos, Dearden has turned his Cowboys career around and if he starts from five-eighth on Wednesday night, becomes a vital cog in Queensland’s attack. “If you had gone back 12 months or even six months ago, I wouldn’t have imagined myself coming to these camps,” Dearden said on Sunday. “To be able to get my debut now, it’s unreal and it’s a really goo

While the old COVID-19, also known as the post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC), is a rapidly emerging health crisis across the US and abroad, there is no practical medical definition for it — and it may not be the case. the bad ones, say experts. There are overarching definitions for long-term COVID, such as that from the CDC, which states that long-term COVID-19 is first identifiable “at least four weeks after infection,” and WHO, which says that it occurs “usually within three months of the onset of COVID-19, with symptoms and effects that last for at least two months.” The medical community has taken a more clinical swing in defining the term COVID in an effort to improve patient care. The American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation has listed 50 different symptoms that may be associated with prolonged COVID-19. Scrolling through patient-driven forums, such as a Reddit channel called r/covidlonghaulers, reveals a wider list of symptoms. However, researchers and do
