We discuss the tension of Billy’s last stand and the science behind the mud—including why that famous thermal-vision trick wouldn't actually work in real life. A Warrior’s Code: A breakdown of the Predator’s sense of honor and why the final mano-a-mano showdown remains one of the most electrifying sequences in cinematic history.The Future of the Hunt: From casting curiosities to the massive impact on pop culture, we look at where the franchise is headed—including the latest buzz surrounding the sequel to ‘Prey’.Tokyo Drift (The Dark Kind): We take a hard turn from the jungle into the criminal underbelly of Tokyo for a look at the grit and glamour of the Yakuza in media.The Loading Screen: We wrap things up with our usual gaming laughs, hardware gripes, and the TV show updates you need to stay ahead of the curve.“Get to the chopper!" and hit play—the jungle is always more thrilling with friends.

The Last Outlaws Impact Studios at UTS In a History Lab season like no other, we're pulling on the threads of one of Australia's great misunderstood histories, moving beyond the myths to learn what the Aboriginal brothers Jimmy and Joe Governor faced in both life and death.Australia's budding Federation is the background setting to this remarkable story, that sees the Governor brothers tied to the inauguration of a 'new' nation and Australia's dark history of frontier violence, racial injustice and the global trade and defilement of Aboriginal ancestral remains. This Impact Studios production is a collaboration with the Governor family, UTS Faculty of Law and Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research.The Last Outlaws teamKatherine Biber - UTS Law Professor and Chief InvestigatorAunty Loretta Parsley - Great-granddaughter of Jimmy Governor and the Governor Family Historian Leroy Parsons - Governor descendant, Narrator and Co-WriterKaitlyn Sawrey - Host, Writer and Senior ProducerFrank Lopez - Writer, Managing Next Generation Energy Systems Cambridge University Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation.
