Melbourne:
the capital and most populous city in the Australian state of Victoria, and the second most populous city in Australia. The name Melbourne refers to the area of urban agglomeration (as well as a census statistical division) spanning 9,900 km2 (3,800 sq mi) which comprises the broader metropolitan area, as well as being the common name for its city centre. The metropolis is located on the large natural bay of Port Phillip and expands into the hinterlands towards the Dandenong and Macedon mountain ranges, Mornington Peninsula and Yarra Valley. Melbourne consists of 31 municipalities. It has a population of 4,529,500 as of 2015, and its inhabitants are called Melburnians.
Founded by free settlers from the British Crown colony of Van Diemen's Land on 30 August 1835, in what was then the colony of New South Wales, it was incorporated as a Crown settlement in 1837. It was named Melbourne by the Governor of New South Wales, Sir Richard Bourke, in honour of the British Prime Minister of the day, William Lamb, 2nd Viscount Melbourne. It was officially declared a city by Queen Victoria in 1847, after which it became the capital of the newly founded colony of Victoria in 1851. During the Victorian gold rush of the 1850s, it was transformed into one of the world's largest and wealthiest cities. After the federation of Australia in 1901, it served as the nation's interim seat of government until 1927.
Melbourne rates highly in education, entertainment, health care, research and development, tourism and sport, making it the world's most liveable city—for the sixth year in a row in 2016, according to the Economist Intelligence Unit. It is a leading financial centre in the Asia-Pacific region, and ranks among the top 30 cities in the world in the Global Financial Centres Index. Referred to as Australia's cultural capital, it is the birthplace of Australian impressionism, Australian rules football, the Australian film and television industries, and Australian contemporary dance. It is recognised as a UNESCO City of Literature and a major centre for street art, music and theatre. It is home to many of Australia's largest and oldest cultural institutions such as the Melbourne Cricket Ground, the National Gallery of Victoria, the State Library of Victoria and the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Royal Exhibition Building. It was the host city of the 1956 Summer Olympics.
The main passenger airport serving the metropolis and the state is Melbourne Airport (also called Tullamarine Airport), which is the second busiest in Australia, and the Port of Melbourne is Australia's busiest seaport for containerised and general cargo. Melbourne has an extensive transport network. The main metropolitan train terminus is Flinders Street Station, and the main regional train and coach terminus is Southern Cross Station. Melbourne is also home to Australia's most extensive freeway network and has the world's largest urban tram network.

Sir David Attenborough at Keele - Lecture
New state-of-the-art science facilities at Keele University have been officially opened by renowned broadcaster Sir David Attenborough.
As part of the University’s 70th anniversary celebrations, Sir David toured Keele’s new life science laboratories which have been named in his honour, meeting with staff and students to discuss their pioneering research and studies in fields such as food security, biodiversity, and global health.
The new School of Life Sciences teaching and research laboratories are part of a £45 million investment to create cutting-edge science facilities on campus to support Keele’s world-leading research and teaching, and to tackle the key challenges of the 21st Century.
As he officially opened the laboratories, Sir David said: “I am extremely lucky and I feel undeserving of this great honour. But if it means that you have the excitements, and the thrill, and the enlightenments that I have had looking at the natural world, and the sheer joy - and that you go on to care for the natural world - then I am very pleased indeed, and I am delighted to have this huge honour of having this wonderful building carry my name.”
After opening the new laboratories, Sir David gave a talk on the subject of sustainability to a packed audience, followed by a short Q&A session.
In his awe-inspiring talk to over 400 guests, staff and students, Sir David said: “Universities have a responsibility when they have an understanding of what is happening in the natural world to tell people about it, and take action about it.
“This university is showing that it understands the importance of sustainability and human beings cannot go on taking from the natural world without any care.
“I actually had been feeling that I was talking into the wind 30 years ago. Today, I believe that we are on the turning point. I believe that universities like this one, which pays particular attention to sustainability, is right at the cutting edge.
“Young people, people in universities, people with understanding about conservation and the natural world, are going to influence politicians. Things that have happened in the past few weeks show that politicians have suddenly realised they cannot ignore what is happening. That is because of the outcry of young people - because the world belongs to young people.
“The world does not belong to man alone. We are its custodians. We have the power, and the knowledge, to care for that world, and we have a moral obligation to do that.”
Sir David’s visit came on the same day that Keele became one of the first universities in the UK to declare a ‘climate emergency’, furthering the University’s commitment to promoting sustainability and investment in researching green technology.
University Challenge S47E01 Edinburgh vs Ulster
Everytime we're done with Wimbledon (don't care for tennis, sorry), it's that time of the year again. BBC is kind enough to treat us another series of the world's most-loved quiz show, University Challenge (well, I lied. It's Countdown, really). To open this year, we have the edgy kids of Edinburgh University (just do without the surnames, eh?) playing against the N. Irish middle-agers from Ulster University. The match is just so, but would anyone care to guess the age distribution in Ulster so their average is 50? Also, I don't know what got into the producers' heads, but the giveaways are so easy and Paxman is really getting too soft. Some changes I'm not quite sure about there.
In any case, the first one tends to be a mixed bag, so keep your hopes up and pray for more interesting teams on the road ahead. In the meantime, enjoy!
7th Annual Leon Levy Biography Lecture: Richard Holmes
Richard Holmes has made his mark in two fields, literary biography and science writing. He transfigured the way the Romantic poets are written about with his first book, Shelley: The Pursuit (1974), of which The New York Times noted, “If the art of biography was ever damned, Shelley: The Pursuit redeemed it.” He is best known for his definitive two-volume biography: Coleridge: Early Visions (1989, winner of the Whitbread Book of the Year Award) and Coleridge: Darker Reflections. His other books include Footsteps: Adventures of a Romantic Biographer (which Stacy Schiff has called a book every biographer secretly wishes he'd written), Sidetracks, and Dr. Johnson & Mr. Savage (winner of the James Tait Black Prize). After ten years of teaching, he published his international bestseller, The Age of Wonder, which won the Royal Society Prize for Science Books and the National Book Critics Circle Award. His most recent book is Falling Upwards: How We Took to the Air. Holmes is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and of the British Academy. In 1992, he was awarded the Order of the British Empire (OBE).
Graffiti
Graffiti is writing or drawings that have been scribbled, scratched, or sprayed illicitly on a wall or other surface, often in a public place. Graffiti ranges from simple written words to elaborate wall paintings, and it has existed since ancient times, with examples dating back to Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece, and the Roman Empire.
In modern times, paint (particularly spray paint) and marker pens have become the most commonly used graffiti materials. In most countries, marking or painting property without the property owner's consent is considered defacement and vandalism, which is a punishable crime.

Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon
Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon CI GCVO GCStJ (Margaret Rose; 21 August 1930 – 9 February 2002), was the only sibling of Queen Elizabeth II and the younger daughter of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth.
Margaret spent much of her childhood years in the company of her older sister and parents. Her life changed dramatically in 1936, when her paternal uncle, King Edward VIII, abdicated to marry the twice divorced American Wallis Simpson. Margaret's father became King, and her older sister became heiress presumptive with Margaret second in line to the throne. During World War II, the two sisters stayed at Windsor Castle, despite suggestions to evacuate them to Canada. During the war years, Margaret was considered too young to perform any official duties, and instead continued her education.

SUMMARY
=======
Germaine Greer (; born 29 January 1939) is an Australian writer and public intellectual, regarded as one of the major voices of the second-wave feminist movement in the latter half of the 20th century. She has held academic positions at the University of Warwick, University of Tulsa and Newnham College, Cambridge, specializing in English and women's literature, and divides her time between Australia and the United Kingdom.Greer's ideas have created controversy ever since her first book, The Female Eunuch (1970), made her a household name. An international bestseller and a watershed text in the feminist movement, the book offered a systematic deconstruction of ideas such as womanhood and femininity, arguing that women are forced to assume submissive roles in society to fulfill male fantasies of what being a woman entails.Her work since then has focused on literature, feminism and the environment. She has written over 20 books, including Sex and Destiny: The Politics of Human Fertility (1984), The Change: Women, Ageing and the Menopause (1991), The Whole Woman (1999), Shakespeare's Wife (2007), and White Beech: The Rainforest Years (2013), which describes her efforts to restore an area of rainforest in the Numinbah Valley in Australia. In addition to her academic work and activism, she has been a prolific columnist for The Sunday Times, The Guardian, The Daily Telegraph, The Spectator, The Independent, and The Oldie, among others.Greer is a liberation (or radical) rather than equality feminist. Her goal is not equality with men, which she sees as assimilation and agreeing to live the lives of unfree men. Women's liberation, she wrote in The Whole Woman (1999), did not see the female's potential in terms of the male's actual. She argues instead that liberation is about asserting difference and insisting on it as a condition of self-definition and self-determination. It is a struggle for the freedom of women to define their own values, order their own priorities and decide their own fate.

SUMMARY
=======
Graffiti (both singular and plural; the singular graffito is very rare in English except in archeology) is writing or drawings made on a wall or other surface, usually without permission and within public view. Graffiti ranges from simple written words to elaborate wall paintings, and it has existed since ancient times, with examples dating back to ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, and the Roman Empire.In modern times, paint (particularly spray paint) and marker pens have become the most commonly used graffiti materials. In most countries, marking or painting property without the property owner's permission is considered defacement and vandalism, which is a punishable crime.
Graffiti may also express underlying social and political messages and a whole genre of artistic expression is based upon spray paint graffiti styles. Within hip hop culture, graffiti have evolved alongside hip hop music, b-boying, and other elements. Unrelated to hip-hop graffiti, gangs use their own form of graffiti to mark territory or to serve as an indicator of gang-related activities.Controversies that surround graffiti continue to create disagreement amongst city officials, law enforcement, and writers who wish to display and appreciate work in public locations. There are many different types and styles of graffiti; it is a rapidly developing art form whose value is highly contested and reviled by many authorities while also subject to protection, sometimes within the same jurisdiction.
