The Passing of a Thriller legend – Michael Jackson 1958 -2009

June 26, 2009 //  by Wanda//  Leave a Comment

The Essential Michael Jackson I am stunned, just like every other person on this planet, at the news of Michael Jackson’s death.

Having been a total fan of Michael Jackson since the beginning I, like millions of others have always thought he was the most talented musician and dancer ever.

I have to admit that I preferred his look when he was younger, before the days he became referred to as Wacko Jacko and took to hiding behind masks and having so much plastic surgery.

Such a troubled young man.  So sad to see him gone.

I don’t need to document his life’s journey, I just want to pay tribute to his talent.

I love the music on the album The Essential Michael Jackson and of course the legendary Thriller dvd.

Where Have all the Frogs Gone?

April 20, 2009 //  Leave a Comment

Face to Face with Frogs by Mark MoffettSounds like the name of a song but it’s quite a serious business in the Northern parts of Australia.

We all reminisce about the many different species of cute frogs that once were found in abundance in this great land of ours, but now many of them have disappeared because of the introduction of the cane toad.

In 1935, in their infinite wisdom, the government of the day introduced 102 the cane toad to combat the grey backed cane beetle and the Frenchie beetle.

The cane toad proved to be ineffective for this task as the cane toads cannot jump very high so were unable to reach the upper stalks of the sugar cane and couldn’t reach the beetles higher up.

There was an insecticide produced 5 years later and the cane toads were left to do what cane toads do best and that was reproduce, within 6 months there were tens of thousands of these pests. They have spread across Queensland and into the Northern Territory and have now been found in Northern New South Wales.

A female cane toad can lay between 8000 and 30000 eggs at a time (anytime). Most native Australian frogs lay between 1000 and 2000 eggs per year. So our native frogs didn’t stand a chance against these ghastly predators.

The cane toad has no known predators and pets are at risk because of the toxins within the skin of the toads.

This is just another example of Governments not undertaking enough research into the kinds of pests they introduce simply to appease one or other vocal lobby groups, in this case the Sugar Industry.
