Plug in, pay up?
If you drive a 15-year-old ute, or don’t drive at all, would you expect to pay for public electric vehicle (EV) chargers? The Australian Energy Market Commission has given preliminary backing to a plan that would let electricity network providers build public EV charging infrastructure and spread the cost across every electricity customer. That includes households who don’t own an electric vehicle and may never do so.
Energy markets
Thanks for your letter (29 July), Doug Foskey. I agree with much of what you said. However, from my perspective, the key to making change happen is knowing where to apply pressure. Our energy system is run by three main organisations. The Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) writes the rules for the energy market. Pressure point one. The Australian Energy Regulator (AER) makes sure those rules are followed and monitors network prices, including Essential Energy’s charges.
Power bills
Here’s something every power bill payer should know about. The poles and wires that deliver electricity to your home are the biggest cost on your bill. Not the power itself. Not the transmission lines. The local network. It’s about 35 per cent of what you pay, more than double what generation costs you. And here’s the kicker: networks have been planning just five years at a time, with almost no scrutiny. Meanwhile rooftop solar, batteries and EVs have exploded onto the grid.
Energy savings
Two exciting developments will lower household electricity bills, strengthen the local grid, and help power-up our renewable energy. First, from 1 July 2026, households can access free electricity from 11am to 2pm through the Solar Sharer Offer. You don’t need rooftop solar and you don’t have to own your home. Renters are eligible too. There’s one important thing: You need to contact your electricity retailer to opt in and you need a smart meter which your retailer can install.
Socio-emotional development trajectories in infants at high risk of cerebral palsy: A longitudinal cohort study
AIMS Alberta Infant Motor Scale ASQ:SE-2 Ages & Stages Questionnaires: Social-Emotional, Second Edition Bayley-III Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, Third Edition GEE generalized estimating equation Of infants at high risk of cerebral palsy, just under half experience socio-emotional difficulties. Early parenting stress predicts later infant socio-emotional difficulties. Early motor and language development are not associated with socio-emotional outcomes.
From inconvenient to unavoidable
The unavoidable arithmetic in Council’s Draft 2026/27 Budget is that day-to-day operations are no longer being funded by day-to-day revenue. But there’s lots to appreciate. Council secured $63.9 million in grant funding for infrastructure recovery, and the sewer fund is largely self-funded. The line-item detail allows the community to properly scrutinise the numbers. Transparency matters. But here’s the thing: the internal general fund has dropped 25 per cent in a single year.
Rewire energy rules
In The Echo’s Sustainability Issue [Vol 18], Mandy Nolan noted – correctly – that Australia leads the world in rooftop solar uptake. But the strong uptake is revealing weaknesses in the energy system.
Infant social withdrawal and rapid infant weight gain - International Journal of Obesity
Abstract Rapid infant weight gain (RIWG) and infant social withdrawal are important early markers of risk of subsequent overweight/obesity and mental health problems, respectively. While overweight and mental health problems are linked later in life, it remains unclear if this association is present already in infancy.
Profiles of parental reflective functioning and mind‐mindedness in first‐time parents of 4‐month‐old infants
1 INTRODUCTION Parental reflective functioning (PRF) is a crucial parental ability that allows a parent to understand and interpret behavioral cues from their child as manifestations of mental states (Luyten, Mayes, Nijssens, et al., 2017; Luyten, Nijssens, Fonagy, et al., 2017; Slade, 2005).
Power to the people: how Byron Council could lead the way in energy resilience
Byron Shire had bushfires in 2019-2020, floods in 2022, extreme heatwaves and long power outages in 2024 and early 2025. These hazards have real consequences to social cohesion, human health, environment, infrastructure, and the economy. Community batteries provide energy back up and reliability during these types of natural disasters. They feed backup power from the battery to the community and to essential services, such as water and sewage treatment.
Validating the parental reflective functioning questionnaire ‐ infant version using a rasch model
1 INTRODUCTION Reflective functioning was first introduced as the operationalization of mentalizing, which refers to the ability to understand one's own and other's mental states (Fonagy et al., 1991, 1993). Slade (2005) introduced the concept of parental reflective functioning to describe the parent's ability to reflect on the ongoing psychological processes in their child and in themselves as a parent.
Global climate action in local Byron Shire
Do you remember the ‘think global act local’ campaign? When this thinking spills over to a group of passionate volunteers who pit their actions toward making changes, supported by a local philanthropic group like the Northern Rivers Community Foundation (NRCF), you can really feel you are effecting critical change beyond your own neighbourhood.

The hoary old nuclear chestnut vs renewables
What options do we have to combat global warming and address the energy crisis? Politically, there’s a debate between renewable energy and nuclear power. Both options offer low-carbon alternatives to fossil fuels, yet they differ significantly. Renewables, like wind and solar, promise an abundant, sustainable future but face challenges with intermittency and energy storage. Nuclear power, on the other hand, raises concerns about waste management, safety risks, and high upfront costs.

Full article: Identifying Profiles of Parental Reflective Functioning in First-Time Parents and Associations with Parental Attachment and Infant Socioemotional Adjustment
SYNOPSIS Objective. Parental reflective functioning (PRF) consists of three dimensions using the Parental Reflective Functioning Questionnaire (PRFQ): Pre-Mentalizing Modes, Certainty about Mental States, and Interest and Curiosity. Different types of mentalization, such as genuine mentalization, hypomentalization, and hypermentalization, have been hypothesized yet rarely empirically examined.
Let the sun win for Byron Shire with stored renewables
Do we need to change energy production, renewable energy storage and use, and if so, why? On June 29 this year Essential Energy confirmed 34 houses at Ewingsdale lost power caused by a fault in the power lines described as a ‘burnt neutral’. The outcome? For several residents, damage to electrical appliances cost them hundreds or thousands of dollars.

Jazzachtige klarinetimprovisaties en grappige anekdotes op openingsconcert van festival September Me
Stap dit weekend binnen bij festival September Me in de Amersfoortse Flint, en je bent het druilerige herfstweer vergeten. Tussen zwierige festivaldecoratie staan muziekinstallaties opgesteld, zoals een hybride cello met zonnepanelen, of een compleet gerecycled robotorkest. Ze verwijzen naar het thema van dit jaar: ‘nieuwe wegen’ – hoe verhoudt de muziek zich tot nieuwe technologie?
Bach Minimaliste past als een puzzel en klinkt soms als de Phantom of the opera
De insteek van Bach Minimaliste van La Tempête is niet uniek. Tussen de dood van Bach (1750) en de opkomst van minimal music (rond 1960) verstreken twee eeuwen, maar in muzikaal opzicht is de stap helemaal niet zo groot. Muziek uit beide perioden is ritmisch, maakt vindingrijk gebruik van repeterende motieven en heeft vaak een kleine, transparante bezetting. Verbind de twee, en je hebt een heerlijk hallucinant genre dat het best goed zou doen op een progressief muziekfestival.
Op het Festival Oude Muziek heeft fantasie de overhand en is 'authentiek’ passé
Het trouwe publiek van het Festival Oude Muziek verzamelt zich vrijdag in de gangen rond de grote zaal van het Utrechtse TivoliVredenburg. De dikke festivalboeken zijn niet aan te slepen. ‘Revival’ is dit jaar het thema: het festival blikt terug op haar eigen geschiedenis. Oude muziek is in de voorbije eeuwen steeds weer afgestoft en hergebruikt. Hoe gaan we om met muziek uit een ver verleden? Waar zoeken we naar?
Violiste María Dueñas: ‘Ik wilde bij mijn debuut graag een statement maken’
Zelfverzekerd. Duidelijk. Overtuigd. Alles aan de persoonlijkheid van de Spaanse violist María Dueñas (2002) past in het profiel van een wereldster in wording. Je kunt ook zeggen dat ze de top al heeft bereikt, want haar concertagenda staat vol beroemde concertzalen en grote namen om mee samen te spelen. Hoe maak je zó snel carrière dat je uit het ogenschijnlijke niets in een paar jaar tussen de wereldsterren opduikt?
Tenor Marco Beasley: ‘Mensen realiseren zich niet genoeg dat het leven eindig is’
De Italiaans-Britse tenor Marco Beasley (1957) is een icoon in de oude-muzieksector. En dat terwijl de geboren Napolitaan helemaal nooit van plan was om musicus te worden. Hij heeft geen conservatorium gedaan, maar studeerde muziekwetenschap aan de universiteit van Bologna. Toen hij daar voor het eerst renaissancemuziek hoorde, was het hem meteen duidelijk dat hij dit zelf móést zingen. „Ik herkende mezelf in deze muziek.
IJzersterk slagwerkconcert met een reusachtig klokkenspel van petflessen
Op het podium van concertzaal Amare in Den Haag stond vrijdagavond een installatie die nog het meest deed denken aan een marktkraam met keukengerei. Het was de opstelling voor het Recycling Concerto van componist Gregor Mayrhofer, dat zijn Nederlandse première beleefde. Programmaboekjes waren er niet, want zoals de titel Make music, not trash - mens en natuur deed vermoeden: zo min mogelijk troep maken was het uitgangspunt van dit concert.
Wint Apple Music Classical de slag om de klassieke luisteraar?
Er is maar één ‘God Only Knows’ van The Beach Boys, maar er zijn honderden uitvoeringen van Mahlers Vijfde symfonie. Hoe vind je dan precies die ene unieke uitvoering uit 1993? Apple hoopt dat met de net gelanceerde dienst Apple Music Classical een stuk makkelijker te maken. Het Koninklijk Concertgebouworkest gelooft er in ieder geval in, dat kondigde afgelopen week meteen een samenwerking aan. Maar kan de app opboksen tegen marktleider Spotify en de gevestigde klassiekemuziek-app Idagio?
Dirigent Lorenzo Viotti trekt ook met de Münchner Philharmoniker een nieuw publiek naar klassieke muziek
Het Concertgebouw zat dinsdagavond afgeladen vol smart-watchdragende en selfie-schietende concertbezoekers. Waarom laat zich raden: Lorenzo Viotti dirigeert. De mediagenieke chef-dirigent van zowel het Nederlands Philharmonisch Orkest als De Nationale Opera maakt klassieke muziek voor een hoop jongeren Instagramwaardig. Het resultaat is dat er verrassend veel jong publiek in de zaal zit, dat af en toe joelt tussen de delen.
Pursuit: A Poem by Anne Dyer Stuart
At six she knocked a boy’s head into a pole when he put clovers down her shirt. She knew how to protect herself back then. She would not protect herself again. The walk was kitchen-ridiculous, whiskey and schnapps, both peppermint and peach, that stink inside her when he crammed his way in. Faster than it takes childhood to escape, she saw herself above her body and its braces, her body and its futile shape. What is not is just as important as what is. What could she tell herself but run?
Last Tango in Halifax Returns to KCTS 9 for a Final Season
The wait is over! After a three-year hiatus, the beloved series Last Tango in Halifax returns to KCTS 9 on September 20 for its fourth and final season. This fabulous series features acclaimed actors Derek Jacobi as Alan Buttershaw and Anne Reid as Celia Dawson. The story begins when Alan and Celia – who lost touch as teenagers in the 1950s – are reunited after they find each other on Facebook.
Prime Suspect Returns to KCTS 9
Starting April 16, KCTS 9 is bringing back the classic mystery series Prime Suspect. This compelling series features acclaimed actor Dame Helen Mirren as Detective Chief Inspector Jane Tennison in the breakout role that upended gender and age stereotypes in British crime drama. Tennison is a no-nonsense officer in London’s Metropolitan Police.
An old favorite returns: Inspector Morse is coming to KCTS 9
If you’ve been a fan of PBS mysteries for a while now, you’ll be excited to hear that we’re bringing back a classic: Inspector Morse is returning to KCTS 9 on January 18. If you enjoyed the prequel Endeavour or the spinoff Lewis, here’s your chance to see the original. Or if – like me – you’re all of these things, the iconic theme music is already running through your head as you get ready to watch the series that started it all.
Review | NetGalley
Review by Heidi W, Reviewer Last updated on 21 Jan 2020 My Recommendation Special gifts have it ups and downs that bring the stars form 4 to 3 and 1\2. The story is a dark and gritty and might not be for everyone. The romance didn't quite fit in this story and at times felt forced to be in the book. The author has the ability to paint a dark story intertwining strong characters who are always evolving and changing from first page to the last page.
AWS Marketplace seller, buyer FAQs

Social media loosens up sober BPM
A puzzle for some But not everybody has jumped aboard the social BPM bandwagon, and even its proponents acknowledge that the approach has its limitations. (In 2010, Richardson even wrote a blog post titled "Is Social BPM a Methodology, a Technology or Just a Lot of Hype?") First, as some analysts have pointed out, the marketplace lacks a business equivalent of the most widely used social media site: Facebook.
Duma i honor - Anne Stuart - książka, recenzja, streszczenie
Ocena: 5 (1 głosów) 5.00 1 Nie zapomniał o tym, co się stało podczas krucjaty do Ziemi Świętej, bo blizny przypominały mu o tym codziennie. Zadufany w sobie, źle znosił kalectwo. Z natury był zły i mściwy; poprzysiągł zemstę. Elizabeth z Bredon nie chciała dzielić losu swej matki: niewolniczo podporządkować się mężowi, rodzić dzieci i przy kolejnym umrzeć w połogu. Postanowiła schronić się w klasztorze Świętej Anny.
Dwaling van het hart
Elizabeth van Bredon heeft besloten non te worden. Onderweg naar het klooster wordt haar keuze echter zwaar op de proef gesteld. Niet door de monniken met wie ze meereist, maar door de man over wie zij waken: de knappe bastaardprins William Fitzroy, die boete moet doen voor zijn vele zonden. De prins weet Elizabeth te betoveren met zijn charme, en ze kan niet geloven dat zij valt voor iemand met zo'n slechte reputatie.
