Wall of Death, Easter Show, Sydney, 1938 by State Library of New South Wales Via Flickr: Virginia Dodge and Clara Lee were the first women in Australia to ride the ‘Wall of Death’ on motorbikes. In fact, they were the only women in the world performing this stunt at the time. They arrived in Sydney in February 1938 to perform at the Royal Easter Show. Clara is pictured here performing at the show. In July, five months after they arrived, Virginia suffered a skull fracture when a tyre on her motorbike blew out at the top of the wall and she fell to the bottom. by Pix magazine photographer from film negative presented by ACP Magazines Ltd, 2008 On display at State Library of NSW free photographic exhibition Shot lnkd.in/gDxNqUXs

Saturday, May 4, 2024 • 9 p.m. EST: Parody double feature!

The Phantom of the Empire (Turning Tydes Theater Company, 2017, 1 hour)

"Phantales" Easter charity benefit show (Phantom Sydney cast, 1994, 1.5 hours)

Since stream night falls on May the Fourth this year, it seemed appropriate to watch something Star Wars! "The Phantom of the Empire," written and performed by a small theater company in San Diego, is a SW parody featuring the music from Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical. It's fun and silly and only an hour long.

"Phantales" is one of the Sydney Phantom cast's annual Easter benefit shows, featuring parodies of other songs and shows, and is surprisingly good quality for 1994! (h/t to @phantoonsoftheopera for both shows!)

As always, the stream will be on cy.tube and shy anons are welcome. For more info, please see the Saturday Streams FAQ! Link and password will be posted here at 8:45.

Princess of Wales Photo Challenge: Day 6

Favourite photo of Catherine in 2013 or 2014

I decided that I needed to include a photo of Catherine being a stereotypical royal: wearing pretty dresses, meeting cute babies, going on royal tours and getting flowers and this is a really sweet one.

The photo was taken at the Royal Easter Show in Sydney on 18th April 2024.

Why did I only put this up for a day. Put your origin source wherever. I discovered him through an *Nsync book I got from the 2001 Sydney Royal Easter Show.

2024: milestone after milestone

living with my partner after two years long distance was such a nice reward, and confirmed that everything was right

realised my dream of going to the australian open

and going to attica(!!) and having a kangaroo meat pie

before coming back to the table and getting engaged(!!!!!!)

unfortunately we wanted to elope but family had other ideas

leading us to plan our wedding in just three weeks

it was such a great day but yeah, not what a little girl dreams of

anyway!

turned 30 on the 2/2 - glamped/biked around riesling country in adelaide which was goooorgeous

i was conferred my phd on the 22/2 which was cool

recieved dean's commendation for outstanding theses

submitted our manuscript for publication after so much tweaking

married on the 3/3

so yeah it was pretty full-on time tbh

we packed up our entire home, facebook marketplace was our best friend

my husband flew to saudi two weeks later, sending us back into the trenches of long-distance with a new challenge of time zones

i started my long goodbye to alcohol on a trip with friends to kangaroo island - lots of wine, laughter, and swimming with dolphins!

packed up my suitcase, ready to live out of it for the next three months and moved back into my childhood room in brisbane

spent easter with my sister, our grandparents and their siblings which was so lovely

went to san diego for a conference and for some reason, we were invited to the first class bar area on the plane (i can only assume an attendant heard my colleague and i talking about our cancer research which was very unexpected and nice)

flew to sydney for two weeks to complete requested experiments from reviewers and said goodbyes to all my friends

and finally received my saudi visa after much faffing around

my first business class experience to saudi was the qatar qsuite and it was heaven 40k feet above earth

all our stuff from adelaide arrived a few days after me, i set up the entire house

the compound is amazing, so much green space and although it hit 46C in summer, the lack of humidity makes it bearable

lack of alcohol was hard at first but then you just don't seem to think about it? there are tough days where you wish you had a whiskey sure but you get through it

worked on the paper revisions back and forth for months on end

we went to paris and bordeaux just before the olympics and stayed in chateaus and drank beautiful wine and did lots of fine dining

the saudi way of life is very much "inshallah", it's not very conducive to a western way of working which has been a steep learning curve

being here finally gave me the TIME to plan, order and cook whatever my heart desired instead of feeling like a total chore and hindrance during my phd

we went to turkey and bought rugs, drank, explored the landmarks, and went back to my hammam that i dreamt about re-visiting since 2018

saudi racing is fun but as no drinking or gambling, you just sort of sit around and gasbag with friends the entire time hahaha

the women like to engage with me and ask lots of question and the kids like to show off their english and be super cheeky with me!

in general, saudi's are the kindest people and feel the need to impress! same with the pakistani and indian expats!

there is such a sense of non-urgency yet things happen at the last minute - it's truly a wonder

i don't dress much differently to australia which made me realise i am quite modest (and that's fine). i try not to wear an abaya to show expat women that you can still be #stylish

i recieved lots of compliments from saudi women on my outfits which makes me feel FANTASTIC

i did however have to buy new racewear for here ofc which is fine

we went back to paris for racing of the arc at longchamp and explored a bit more, caught up with friends, lots of good food and museums, climbed the eiffel tower etc.

started doing mini triathlons are managed to get a sub-1hr 400m swim/8km bike/2.5km run which i was stoked about

made friends with someone at the australian embassy which was been wonderful - we went to a gala dinner onsite and i think that's a once in a lifetime experience

flew back to australia for the holidays which was again, another insane trip of three weeks in a suitcase

brisbane for a few days, to adelaide for racing (we were guests of honor which was hilarious) and to catchup with our friends and chicken schnitzels; back to brisbane and then to sydney

for my graduation gift, we booked a hotel under the sydney harbour bridge which was like a staycation in our own city. that was such a treasured part of my year

the uni dress people gave me a faulty phd bonnet which was too late to be fixed which resulting in a botched graduation photo with VC :( i got it replaced it after the ceremony but i still haven't recovered from the embarassment and anger!!!!!!

we flew out that night to hong kong for the international racing and catch ups! saw romantic warrior win up close <3

and then flew home just in time for christmas (we had a moo deng angel for our fiddle leaf) and spent christmas at the ritz carlton in riyadh which was unparallelled luxury

oh the manuscript was finally published on the 12/12 in nature communications (v prestigious, v proud) but bc of the embargo, i missed out on doing all public inteviews and tv appearances as i was no longer in australia :---(((((( honestly, the whole process sucked and really jaded me as a scientist - i know it's publish or perish but they just make it so demanding and hard

also they charged us 10k USD to publish which is an actual joke as they don't do any print versions, we could used that to perform more experiments

oh the patent was finalised too so now i can say i have officially found a potential cure for cancer

in bed at 10:30pm on new years because honestly, i think we celebrated every week of this year in a different shape or form

2025

just not sure hey!

i can't seem to get a job here try as i might

going to sweden to mid-jan to ski (read: apres bc i don't ski lol) with friends from australia and america! i am scared of the cold but we shall see

saudi cup is a big time here as the richest horse race in the world

we may be moving compounds which is slightly annoying

our cancer therapy will move into clinical trials in the first half of the year so i am really hoping that we can do some good in the world and make a difference to some families

we have tickets to the imola and monaco f1 gps!!! hoping to do lake como between the racing and we have a yacht for monaco!!!!!!

we may be moving to *** mid-year but stay tuned/fingers crossed

but other than that, inshallah it will be a good year!

NCIS is celebrating 1,000 episodes by doing what the franchise does best -- bring people together. 

On Monday night, the long-running CBS series will air its 1000th episode in the franchise more than two decades after first hitting the airwaves. In the 21 years since the pilot aired in September 2003, the show has amassed an unmatched fanbase, created 4.2 trillion minutes of television and spawned several wildly successful spinoffs based in Los Angeles, Hawaii, Sydney and New Orleans. 

In celebration of the major milestone, ET was recently on set to mark the victorious moment for NCIS and CBS and spoke with cast members from all five shows, who teased what is to come in the highly anticipated special episode, which airs on Monday at 9 p.m. ET.

"We'll get to see my character, McGee, in a position that we have never seen him in, in 20 years. I'll give you that much," NCIS mothership star Sean Murray said. "If I attach anything else to it then I give it away."

"If you're like an old school fan of the show, tried and true, you're gonna have some real cool Easter eggs and some really interesting, fun things to see in the 1000th episode," Murray said. "We're not just letting it go by as one of our regular episodes, you know what I mean?"

He also teased some possible cameos from NCIS cast members and friends of past years. While Murray did not specify any names, it's safe to say fans are crossing their fingers for a Mark Harmon appearance after his departure in 2023. Also on the table are fan faves Cote de Pablo and Michael Weatherly, who were recently announced to be getting their own 10-episode spinoff. 

Elsewhere on set, Wilmer Valderrama -- an NCIS star who has also appeared on NCIS: Hawaii and NCIS: Los Angeles as Nick Torres -- shared that the filming of the 1000th episode was special for many reasons but particularly because it brought together the cast and crews from across the franchise. 

"It's so cool to see all the shows come together to celebrate today," Valderrama, 44, said. "This is their win as [much as] anyone else’s, you know?"

"[It's] just fun to celebrate the 1000th," NCIS: Los Angeles star Chris O’Donnell said. "We had 14 wonderful years as we spent time obviously on this set, we were launched out of this show, we came back, did crossovers, so it's big, you know? The extended family is real."

O'Donnell's iteration wrapped in 2023 after contributing more than 320 episodes to the franchise's total count. The series also starred LL Cool J, Daniela Ruah, Linda Hunt and Renée Felice Smith.

The 1000th episode of NCIS airs on Monday, April 15, at 9 p.m. ET.
