Bushfood (also called bush tucker in Australia) is any food native to Australia eaten by the original inhabitants, the Australian Aborigines.
Most bushfoods are very nutritious.
Examples of native animal foods (meats) are kangaroo, emu and crocodile.
These are quite common and can be found in many supermarkets and restaurants.
Other animals, like lizards and grubs, were eaten by aboriginal (native) Australians, long before white people came to the area.
It also includes fruits and berries.
The most famous native bushfood plant is the macadamia nut.
This is farmed and sold in large numbers.
By the end of the 19th century, there were only less than 100.000 Aboriginal people.
Since the arrival of the settlers, the native population died from new diseases, alcohol and poverty, as their native land was taken away from them.
They had to move to places where they could not live in their traditional way.
Most of their languages died out.
Until the 1960s, children were taken away from their families and forced to live in children's homes („Stolen Generation“).
The idea was to make them „good“ Australians by educating them „properly“.

Mikhail Fokine ( – 22 August 1942) was a Russian choreographer and dancer.
He was born in St Petersburg, the son of a prosperous middle-class merchant.
At the age of nine, he was accepted into the St Petersburg Imperial Ballet School.
In 1898, on his 18th birthday, he debuted on the stage of the Imperial Mariinsky Theatre in Paquita, with the Imperial Russian Ballet.
In 1902, he became a teacher with the ballet school.
Fokine hoped to go beyond the older ballet traditions.
To him virtuoso ballet techniques were not an end in themselves, but a means of expression.
He believed that many of the ballets of his time used costuming and mime which did not reflect the themes of the ballets.
Therefore, he tried to strip ballets of their artificial miming and outdated costumes.
In addition, as a choreographer, he started a reform that took ballerinas out of their pointe shoes.
Also, he experimented with a freer use of the arms and torso.
He presented his reformist ideas to the management of the Imperial theatre, but did not get their support.
Some of his early works include the ballet Acis and Galatea (1905) and The Dying Swan (1907), which was a solo dance for Anna Pavlova, choreographed to the music of Saint-Saëns' Le Cygne.
In 1909, Sergei Diaghilev invited Fokine to become the choreographer of his Ballets Russes in Paris.
Fokine broke off the collaboration in 1912, jealous of Diaghilev's close relationship with Vaslav Nijinsky.
He moved to Sweden in 1918 and later established his home in New York City, where he founded a ballet school and continued to appear with his wife, Vera Fokina.
He became a United States citizen in 1932.
Fokine died in New York on 22 August 1942.
Fokine staged more than 70 ballets in Europe and the United States.
His best known works were Chopiniana (later revised as Les Sylphides), Le Carnaval and Le Pavillon d'Armide.
Among his works for the Ballets Russes were The Firebird, Petrushka, Le Spectre de la Rose and Daphnis et Chloé.
Also, for the Ballets Russes, he created a ballet out of Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade.
His pieces are still performed by the leading ballet troupes of the world.

Lasseter's Reef was a legendary rich gold deposit that was said to be in remote central Australia.
A prospector, Harold Bell Lasseter, claimed to have discovered the site in 1897.
But Lasseter forgot the exact location of it.
He died when he went back into the desert to look for it again.
The gold's location remains a mystery—nobody even knows whether it really exists.
Lasseter told the story in 1929.
He said that he had found the gold near the border of the Northern Territory and Western Australia.
This area at the time was uncharted (no maps had been made of it).
When he came out of the desert, he spent the next thirty years trying to get people to fund an expedition to go back and look for it.
But people ignored him because people were already making fortune from the gold rush at Kalgoorlie in Western Australia.
Nobody wanted to risk going into unchartered desert.
But during the Great Depression, people became interested.
Lasseter got enough money for an expedition to relocate the gold.
But the expedition was hard—there were long distances involved, no maps to guide them, and it was very hard to find water.
When the expedition party became lost, the people who went with Lasseter called him a liar.
They left him, but Lasseter continued, with one other man.
The man later said that Lasseter became crazy in the desert, and he too left him.
Now alone, Lasseter continued in the desert, but eventually became exhausted and dehydrated.
He died from exhaustion and malnutrition in early 1931.
He was on his way to Uluru or Kata Tjuta.
His body was found in March 1931 by a bushman.
The story of Lasseter's expedition is known from the stories of his travelling group.
The later part of the story is known from Lasseter's diary, which was found on his body.
No maps showing the location of the fabled gold reef were ever found.
The tale of the reef has become legend.
It is probably the most famous "lost mine" legend in Australia.

Le Spectre de la rose () is a short ballet.
It is about a young girl who dreams of dancing with the spirit of a souvenir rose from her first ball.
Jean-Louis Vaudoyer wrote the ballet story.
He based it on a verse by Théophile Gautier.
The dances were designed by Michel Fokine.
The music is Hector Berlioz's 1841 orchestration of Carl Maria von Weber's piano music Aufforderung zum Tanz ().
Léon Bakst designed the original sets and costumes.
The ballet was first presented in Monte Carlo on 19 April 1911.
Nijinsky danced The Rose and Tamara Karsavina danced The Young Girl.
Spectre became internationally famous for the leap (jump) Nijinsky made through a window at the ballet's end.
In 1911, Ballet Russes producer Sergei Diaghilev hoped to present Nijinsky's ballet L'Après-midi d'un faune ().
It was not ready for the stage, so he needed another ballet to take its place.
That ballet was the idea of writer Jean-Louis Vaudoyer.
In 1910, he had sent an idea for a ballet to Ballets Russes set and costume designer Léon Bakst.
His idea was based on Le Spectre de la rose, a verse by Théophile Gautier, and Aufforderung zum Tanz, a work for piano by Carl Maria von Weber.
Diaghilev liked Vaudoyer's idea.
He thought it could easily take the place of Faune.
He put Vaudoyer's idea into development at once.
Diaghilev liked the idea of a ballet based on Gautier's Spectre because it could be tied to the centennial of Gautier's birth.
In 1819, Carl Maria von Weber wrote a work for piano called Aufforderung zum Tanz.
He also wrote a program for this work about a young man and woman who meet, dance, and part at a ball.
The quiet music at the opening of Aufforderung leads to some beautiful (and busy) waltz tunes before the work ends with the opening music.
In 1841, Hector Berlioz orchestrated Aufforderung.
This version of the music was used for a short ballet in Weber's opera Der Freischütz at the Paris Opéra.
It was the Berlioz version that was used for the ballet Le Spectre de la rose.
Michel Fokine completed the dance in three or four rehearsals.
He later wrote that the ballet was almost an improvisation.
Grace Robert writes in The Borzoi Book of Ballets that Spectre is a pas de deux, but not the sort of pas de deux that looks back to complex 19th-century technique and virtuosity.
Instead, it is a forward-looking, modern dance of continuous movement and expressiveness.
Fokine dropped the port de bras (position of the arms) of classical ballet in designing the dances for Nijinsky.
He used instead curving, tendril-like movements of the arms and fingers.
Nijinsky became an androgynous character in this ballet, one showing masculine power in his legs and a feminine delicacy in his arms.
Some of his gestures, Ostwalt writes in Nijinsky: A Leap into Madness, "lent a feminine aura (an invisible force)" to the character.
Nijinsky's costume
Nijinsky's silk elasticated costume was designed by Léon Bakst.
The costume was covered with silk rose petals.
Nijinsky was stitched into the costume for every show.
After every show, the wardrobe mistress would touch up the petals with her curling iron.
Nijinsky's make-up was an important part of the costume design.
Romula de Pulszky, later to be his wife, wrote that he looked like "a celestial (heavenly) insect, his eyebrows suggesting some beautiful beetle".
Ostwald writes that Nijinsky's costume was like a ballerina's.
Sometimes, petals would become loose and fall to the stage.
Nijinsky's servant Vasili would collect the petals and sell them as souvenirs.
It was said that he built a large house called Le Château du Spectre de la Rose with the profits from the sale of the petals.
Nijinsky's leap
The ballet became famous for Nijinsky's leap through one of the two large windows at the back of the stage.
The height of the leap was an illusion though.
Nijinsky took five running steps from the middle of the stage and leapt through the window on the sixth step.
The skirting board (base board) under the window was very low, giving the illusion that the leap was higher than it was.
Behind the set, four men caught Nijinsky in the air and put warm towels on him.
No one saw Nijinsky land.
It looked like he would fly on for all time.
The illusion was helped by the conductor in the orchestra pit who held the next to the last chord.
In doing so, the leap was given a sense of great length and height.
The curtain rises on a girl's bedroom.
The Young Girl comes into the room dressed in a white bonnet and ball gown.
She has come home from her first ball.
She holds a rose as a souvenir of the evening.
She drops into a chair and falls asleep.
The rose falls from her fingers to the floor.
The Spirit of the Rose is seen at the window.
He steps to the floor and nears The Young Girl.
Still asleep, she rises and dances with him.
He leads her back to the chair, kisses her, then leaps through the window and into the night.
The Young Girl awakes and rises.
She picks up the rose she dropped and kisses it.
First night and what people thought
Spectre was first presented on 19 April 1911 by Diaghilev's Ballets Russes in the Théâtre de Monte Carlo, Monte Carlo.
Tamara Karsavina danced The Young Girl and Nijinsky danced The Rose.
Grace Robert writes that Spectre was an "immediate success".
Diaghilev was surprised; he thought Spectre a trifle not worth notice, but the little ballet became one of the most loved productions of the Ballets Russes.
After Nijinsky
Many dancers attempted to match Nijinsky as The Rose, but failed.
After all, the ballet had been designed for Nijinsky's very special talents.
The Young Girl has been called "the forgotten woman of ballet", and, as time passed, the part became routine.
By the middle of the 20th century, Spectre had become nothing but a stunt ballet: people paid only to see the leap through the window.
Spectre was one of the first ballets Rudolph Nureyev danced in the West after leaving Russia.
This was for German television in 1961.
He first danced The Rose on stage (24 times) in New York City for the Joffrey Ballet's Diaghilev program in 1979.
Spectre was the last ballet Nureyev and Margot Fonteyn danced together.
That was in June 1979, when the ballerina was 60.
He danced The Rose in Paris in 1981 and 1982, and last danced the part in August 1987 at the London Coliseum with the Nancy Ballet.
The ballet was first seen in Australia in 1936 when it was part of the Monte Carlo Russian Ballet program.
In 1962, Margot Fonteyn danced The Young Girl as part of her 1962 tour of Australia.
In 2006, The Australian Ballet presented the ballet as one of three showing the work of Fokine.

Les Sylphides () is a ballet choreographed by Michel Fokine to the music of Frederic Chopin.
The music was orchestrated by Stravinsky among others.
The scenery and costumes were designed by Alexandre Benois.
The ballet was first performed by the Ballets Russes in Paris at the Théâtre du Châtelet on 2 June 1909.
It starred Nijinsky, Tamara Karsavina, Anna Pavlova, and Maria Baldina.
The ballet is non-narrative.
It does not tell a story.
It is a series of dances meant to evoke the atmosphere and ambiance of a romantic ballet.
Les Sylphides was developed from a Fokine ballet called Chopiniana.
This ballet was performed in St Petersburg on 21 March 1908.
It was a series of imagined scenes from Chopin's life that included a Polish wedding and a ballroom polonaise.
It was revised.
All characters and any suggestion of a plot were dropped to create instead an evocation of the romantic ballet.
The revised ballet (still called Chopiniana) was performed in St Petersburg on 6 April 1908.
This second version was costumed in the long white ballet tutu made famous by Marie Taglioni in La Sylphide.
Chopiniana was renamed Les Sylphides when it was presented in Paris.
Les Sylphides generally includes the following musical numbers:
Polonaise in A major, Op.
1 ("Military", the Prelude in A major, Op.
7 is sometimes substituted)
Nocturne in A flat major, Op.
Waltz in G flat major, Op.

Depressants are a group of drugs that depress or slow down the activity of certain areas of the brain.
Functionally, depressants counter the effects of stimulants, which increase brain activity.
Drugs of the depressant type are widely used around the world, as prescription drugs.
They can help with the following:
Reduce feelings of anxiety or panic
Reduce insomnia and other sleeping-problems, and help people sleep better
As analgetics they reduce pain and fever
To reduce convulsions and seizures, especially in the case of epilepsy
Relax muscles, for those with muscle spasms
To boost the mood, and cause euphoria
To reduce anxiety, that is help people who feel unwell in certain situations
To just calm down if needed
In addition, they are used (often as illegal drugs)
Big groups
Dissociatives
Barbiturates are a group of drugs that are derivates of Barbituric acid.
Adolf von Baeyer was the first to produce Barbituric acid, in 1863.
For many years, barbiturates were used as sedatives.
Today, their use is very limited in many countries, mainly because they cause addiction and people soon develop a tolerance.
People with a drug tolerance will need a higher dosage of the drug to get the same effect as before.
After a while, the drug becomes useless for such people.
This increased use often leads to physical dependence as the body becomes used to the constant presence of barbiturates.
When the person abruptly stops taking the drug or reduces the dose, withdrawal symptoms may arise.
Barbiturates were once used as a primary treatment for Epilepsy; this is especially true for the substance called Phenobarbitol or Phenobarbitone.
The sedative side effect of the drug made it increasingly unpopular, and it is now prescribed less for epilepsy, in favor of other drugs that do not have sedative effects.
Benzodiazepines are another group of drugs, which have sedative properties: They make people sleepy, and help them sleep.
In contrast, Barbiturates force people to sleep.
In the case of severe sleeping problems which cannot be controlled by other drugs, Barbiturates are sometimes used as off-label drugs.
Symptoms of Barbiturate Withdrawal
Abdominal cramps
Some of these withdrawal symptoms can be fatal.
Seizures can be dangerous, and the delirium some users experience can lead to agitation, hyperthermia, and cardiovascular failure.

Kaltukatjara () is a town in the southwest of the Northern Territory of Australia.
It is also called Docker River in English.
It is about 670 km southwest of Alice Springs, and 8 km from the border with Western Australia.
In the 2006 census, Kaltukatjara had a population of 355.
All of the residents are either Pitjantjatjara, Ngaatjatjarra or Ngaanyatjarra Aboriginal people.
Kaltukatjara is located on the western bank of an ephemeral watercourse called Docker River.
It is surrounded by the Petermann Ranges.
From the town, the Great Central Road leads eastward to Yulara (196 km) and westward to Warburton (288 km).
While the roads in the town are sealed, roads out of the town are gravel and can be closed for up to a week if it rains.
There is an air strip about 4 km north of the town.
Power is supplied by three large generators.
The water supply is pumped from two underground bores which are about 5 km from the town.
Facilities in Kaltukatjara includes both a primary and secondary school, a health clinic, community store, and an old people's home.
There is also a Lutheran church.
Kaltukatjara was originally established as an outstation in 1968.
It was established so that the Aboriginal people living in missions such as Areyonga could live closer to their homelands.
It was also to encourage people to move out of the Ayers Rock–Mt Olga National Park.
The settlement was named "Docker River" after the stream that flows through the community.
This stream was given its name by the explorer Ernest Giles when he travelled through the area in 1872.
In 1976, the Aboriginal Land Rights Act was passed in the Northern Territory.
The Kaltukatjara community was given freehold title over a large block of land in the Territory's southwest corner (see Petermann Aboriginal Land Trust).
This allowed families living at Kaltukatjara to spread out over the surrounding country and set up smaller camps on their own ancestral homelands.
This movement was part of a larger trend called the "outstation movement".
The first two outstations established were Tjuntinanta and Punritjanta.
By the end of 1978, a total of 11 outstations had been established.
There were 16 by the end of 1981.
The area in which Kaltukatjara is located is known as .
It contains several old sacred sites associated with the  (Mulga Seed Dreaming).
Part of this Tjukurpa, which is restricted to men, extends east through Uluṟu, where the Wintalyka men became involved in a feud with the Mala people.
According to the legend, the Mala had travelled from the north to perform ceremonies at Uluṟu with a sacred artefact.
On learning of this artefact, the Wintalyka men invited the Mala men to attend ceremonies at Kikingkura, but the Mala refused.
Feeling insulted, the Wintalyka decided to punish the Mala by conjuring an evil spirit to haunt them.
At Pulpaiyala, a soakage close to what is now Kaltukatjara, they conjured , a great and terrifying spirit resembling a dingo.
Kurpany chased the Mala men from Uluṟu and off across the desert to the south.
Outstations
Kaltukatjara is governed by Kaḻṯukatjara Community Council, a local government council with 12 members.
The community also serves about 30 outstations, most of which are not permanently occupied.
They are spread over a large area around the Petermann Ranges.
Only two outstations are funded by the council: Tjauwata, about 5 km to the east, and Kunapula, about 46 km southeast.
Most of the outstations on the eastern side of the border are owned by Pitjantjatjara families.
Those in Western Australia are mostly owned by Ngaanyatjarra people.

Queen for a Day was a radio and television game series.
It was one of the first big-prize giveaway television programs.
Queen for a Day had its launch on the radio on April 30, 1945.
It ran on the radio until 1957.
The program then ran on television's NBC from 1956 to 1964.
The program is something of an early "reality show".
The program was so popular that NBC increased its running time from 30 minutes to 45 minutes.
The format was simple.
Host Jack Bailey interviewed four women contestants.
Each told of her personal troubles.
These troubles might involve a terminally sick child at home, a husband disabled and out of work, or the need for a hearing aid or a new washing machine.
The audience chose the winner by applauding their favorite.
She who received the greatest amount of applause as registered by the "applause meter" was Queen for a Day.
The winner was crowned, escorted by attendants to a throne, and given not only what she wanted, but juicy prizes like high-end appliances, upscale fashions, and exotic vacation trips as well.
Mark Evanier, veteran television writer, writes that Queen for a Day was "one of the most ghastly shows ever produced" and further stated it was "tasteless, demeaning to women, demeaning to anyone who watched it, cheap, insulting and utterly degrading to the human spirit."

A tackle in football is a defensive move in various types of football.
It aims to stop an opponent who is running with the ball.
In English style rugby football it means bringing down an opponent running with the ball.
It is done by diving and catching the runners' legs.
Outlawed as dangerous are tackles round the neck, and less effective tackles are round the runner's body.
In practice there are variations, such as shoving an opponent running with the ball into touch (out of the field of play).
There are some differences between Rugby Union and Rugby League as to the events after the tackle.
In soccer, tackles are done with the feet around or against the opponent's feet.
To be legal the opponent must have control of the ball at the time.
Since soccer is a high-speed game, various rules protect the player running with the ball.
However, from 2017, tackles from any direction that endanger an opponent's safety may result in the offender being sent-off.
This includes "scissoring" which is likely to be punished with a send-off (red card), as it poses a high risk of severe knee injury to the player being tackled.
A "studs up" tackle may be dangerous.
Referees may caution (yellow card) players who commit such challenges.
In American and Canadian  football to tackle is to obstruct (physically interfere) the forward progress of a player in possession of the ball.
In any such case, the ball becomes dead, the down is over, and play ceases until the beginning of the next play.
A releaser is a stimulus from one animal to another, which causes a particular response.
The releaser, or sign stimulus triggers an innate releasing mechanism in the receiver.
The receiver then does its response, the fixed action pattern (FAP).
This kind of system is inherited by both animals.
Example: a fledgling bird does its releaser, say it squawks and opens its beak wide, showing bright red inside throat.
This triggers the adult to cough up food stored in its gullet.
Both 'partners' are behaving instinctually with inherited behaviours: these are not learnt during life.
A FAP can truly be said to be 'hard-wired': a specific stimulus nearly always results in the same behavioral response.
Another behavious system is the 'dances' of water birds such as the Great Crested Grebe.
They pair for life, and 'dance' whenever a pair meet up after an absence, and on other occasions.
The dances are quite complex, and were first described fully by Julian Huxley.
Here the meeting is the releaser, and both partners do the fixed action pattern.
The function of the system is a little unclear, but it has something to do with reinforcing the pair's bond.
It is not necessary for both partners to benefit, nor to be of the same species.
Some moths instantly fold their wings and drop to the ground if they encounter bat ultrasonic signals.
This helps helps the moths, but obviously not the bats.
In turn, some bats turn off the sound blips when they hear a moth, and glide in the last few feet.
This also is an inherited behaviour.
This example may be better described as a reflex action.
Fruit fly may mean the flies in two families:
Drosophilidae, a family of small flies.
The family contains more than 4,000 species classified under 75 genera.
Drosophila: the genus of small fruit flies and vinegar flies, especially Drosophila melanogaster, famous for its role in 20th century genetics.
Tephritidae, a family of large, colorfully marked flies which are mostly pests.
Nearly 5,000 described species of tephritid fruit fly are put in almost 500 genera
Bactrocera cucurbitae or melon fly, an agricultural pest in Asian countries
Bactrocera oleae or olive fruit fly, native to the Eastern Hemisphere and an invasive species in North America
Bactrocera tryoni or Queensland fruit fly, an invasive pest species in Australia
Vidalia (fruit fly), a genus.
The Copper Age was a time period between the Neolithic and the Bronze Age.
It is also named Chalcolithic ( khalkos "copper" +  lithos "stone").
In the Bronze Age, people added tin to copper to make bronze, an alloy which is much harder than either tin or copper.
During the Copper Age, this fact became known, but was not much used because tin was scarce.
