Passion Fruit on Air

Paola Toose, brave, passionate and owner of a great sense of humour midwife will be sharing her story in Pasion Fruit on Air. We'll know some details of Paola's adolescence which drove her to back to her country on her own, and how she took that experience as an opportunity. Besides, we will be talking about her decision to become a midwife and she will also give recommendations to mums about the coronavirus which has us, to say something, emotionally tired. In this show, we played music from Latin rock bands of the '80s and '90s. Circo Beat - Fito Paez Tren al Sur - Los Prisioneros Profugos - Soda Stereo Pasajera en trance - Charly Garcia

Passion Fruit on Air se complace en invitarlos a una entretenida conversación con al astróloga y futuróloga chilena, Ivi Sepúlveda. Nuestra querida “brujita” nos ha advertido y preparado para mucho de lo que hoy estamos viviendo. Esta vez le preguntamos sobre su nuevo libro y que nos están diciendo las constelaciones, planetas y lunas. Ivi está empeñada en que aprendamos de astrología para estar preparados, pero también para hacer las cosas mejor. Así que hablamos en profundidad sobre los 7 ciclos astrológicos ocurrirán en los próximos años y cuál es la tendencia o influencia que estos tienen sobre nosotros. Los ciclos Júpiter y Saturno que comenzó a fines de 2019 y dura 20 años. Hoy se encuentra esa conjunción en Capricornio y a fines de año entra en Acuario. Júpiter y Urano que se dará el 2024 y durará 14 años. Traerá avances, especialmente en tecnología. Y estará en Tauro. Júpiter – Neptuno, que sucede cada 13 años, comienza el 2022 y estará en la casa de Piscis. Esta conjunción nos traerá nuevos valores espirituales. Saturno – Urano. Esta conjunción nos acompañará por 45 años y comienza el 2032 en Cáncer. Esta “asociación planetaria” nos sugiere cambios en las formas de gobierno y de manejar nuestras vidas. Saturno - Neptuno estarán influyéndonos juntos por 36, 37 años, desde el 2026 y lo hará desde la casa de Aries. Esta conjunción nos habla de cambios en las estructuras con un Saturno que se aferra a lo establecido. Saturno - Plutón entró el 2020 en Capricornio y anuncia una metamorfosis lenta y poderosa regeneración, otras perspectivas, cambios sustanciales en la forma de pensar. Urano – Neptuno que se da cada 170 años y nos traerá bastante trabajo.

Presented by the Alliance Française in association with the Embassy of France in Australia and Unifrance Films, the 2020 season will screen at Palace Cinemas (Cinema Paradiso) and Luna Palace Cinemas (Windsor Cinema and Luna on SX). This year we are celebrating the 31st edition of the Alliance Française French Film Festival which from 11 March until 8 April will be screening a selection of contemporary French cinema. Showcased via 9 distinct categories with expressively piquant headings such as ‘Eternal Odyssey,’ ‘Intense & Unsettling,’ ‘The Voice of the Countryside,’ ‘Magnetic Love,’ and ‘City of Lights,’ the 2020 line-up has a strong emphasis on social engagement and altruistic endeavours. These qualities are depicted in films such as the multi-award-winning Les Misérables, Ladj Ly’s searing snapshot of corruption and simmering tensions in modern-day Paris; School Life, a comedy/drama set within a Saint Denis high school; Invisibles, which follows the unorthodox antics taken by an illegal women’s shelter to avoid closure; Oh Mercy!, a darkly compelling exposé of the human condition as observed by a police chief in Northern France; the poignant rural drama, In the Name of the Land, starring Guillaume Canet as a farmer battling to maintain his dignity in the face of incessant setbacks, and many more extraordinary films. In times of social, environmental and political uncertainty, cinema also looks to heroic figures for inspiration, a trend which is echoed via themes ranging from space travel (Proxima and How to Become an Astronaut); fairytale princes (The Lost Prince and Donkey Skin), political leaders (Alice and the Mayor and Savages); submarine soldiers (The Wolf’s Call) and spirits (Zombi Child). High on the list of 2020 highlights is the international premiere of director Martin Provost’s How to Be a Good Wife. Set at a time when women were still expected to be largely subservient, this delicious comedy stars the luminous Juliette Binoche as the pristine head of a housekeeping school who, when faced with adversity, takes her first steps towards emancipation. There’s also the hotly anticipated La Belle Époque, which tells the story of Victor (Daniel Auteuil) a disillusioned man who is given the opportunity to relive the great love-affair of his youth, and the whimsically romantic Notre-Dame - shot before last year’s horrific fire - about an architect who wins a competition to redesign the Notre-Dame esplanade; a movie which, given events of the past year, is now considered visionary. Breathing life into this cinematic cornucopia will be a host of France’s most electrifying actors, including Fanny Ardant, Vincent Cassel, Romain Duris, Emmanuelle Bercot, Bérénice Bejo, Jean Dujardin, Fabrice Luchini, Noémie Lvovsky, Eva Green, Jacques Perrin, Gaspard Ulliel, Roshdy Zem, Léa Seydoux, Yolande Moreau, Xavier Dolan, Virginie Efira, Sandrine Kiberlain, François Cluzet, Gilles Lellouche, Laurent Lafitte, Christophe Lambert, Mathieu Kassovitz, Virginie Ledoyen and Lidvine Sagnier, who will feature in films directed by, amongst others, Christophe Honoré, Zabou Breitman, Xavier Dolan, Martin Provost, Olivier Nakache, Éric Toledano, Guillaume Canet, Erwan Le Duc, Rémi Bezançon, André Téchiné, Cédric Kahn, Dominik Moll, Arnaud Desplechin, Cédric Klapisch, Michel Hazanavicius, and Yvan Attal. And in celebration of its 50th anniversary, the Festival will present a restored version of the aforementioned, Donkey Skin, a luscious fairy-tale musical from legendary New-Wave director Jacques Demy, featuring a soundtrack by Michel Legrand and starring the eternal Catherine Deneuve who headlines four films in this year’s programme. The Alliance Française French Film Festival screens at Palace Cinemas Raine Square (Perth CBD) and Cinema Paradiso (Northbridge) and Luna Palace Cinemas Windsor (Nedlands) and Luna on SX (Fremantle) from 11 March – 8 April.

In 1994, he reached 802.6 km/hr. Australia has his name in their files and he prepares to write his next chapter: to reach 1,200 km/hr on the Aussie Invader - World Land Speed Record Challenger. Join us in this conversation and get to know something more about this man who wants to put Australia once again at the top of the world competition.

Join us in a new episode of conversations with Dr. Carol Hullin, Ph.D. in Digital Health, masters in law and a global leader in Digital Transformation.  In this opportunity, we'll be talking about Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is an area of computer science that emphasizes the creation of intelligent machines that work and react like humans. Probably you use Alexa, Netflix Siri, and Amazon.com for entertainment or to buy your favourite stuff. All of them use AI, which means learning from your interaction with their systems to give you a better service. How far are we from being in front of a "machine" which can interact like a human being, with answers and even feelings like the ones we have? With Dr. Hullin we will also analyse the #ethical and #legal aspects of AI.  

This is our second conversation with Dr. Carol Hullin, Ph.D. in Digital Health, an international consultant on digital transformation and senior lecturer at Swinburne University of Technology (Melbourne, Victoria, Australia). Today apparently the data is everything. We constantly produce and share data. How safe is that data? What is your security strategy for your personal data? How much of your personal information is freely available on social media? Are your computer's cameras protected? Does your phone have a shield protecting your data? We invite you to our cycle of conversation with Dr. Carol Hullin PhD in Digital Health, master’s in law and global advisor in digital transformation. In this opportunity, we will be talking about considerations to keep your data safe and accessible.

We proudly present you a series of conversations with Dr. Carol Hullin, Ph.D. in Digita lHealth, an international consultant on digital transformation and senior lecturer at Swinburne University of Technology (Melbourne, Victoria, Australia). A few weeks ago we interviewed her and knew her story of effort, resilience, and achievements. In this show, we talk about the role of women in digital transformation, opportunities, and threats. Talking with Carol is not a linear conversation. Her experiences in life, knowledge, and professional development bring a new vision to currents topics.

Estábamos terminando el año 2019 cuando las alarmas internacionales sonaron con fuerza. La Organización Mundial de la Salud, OMS, comunicaba al mundo de varios casos de neumonía registrados en la ciudad china de Wuhan, en la provincia de Hubei. En un comienzo no se sabía cuál era la causa. Luego se identificó, sería una nueva cepa del coronavirus a la que se denominó 2019 - nCoV. Su contagio e "internacionalización" es muy rápido. A la hora de esta publicación, 20 países desafortunadamente tienen personas contagiadas con el virus, como lo son Japón, Camboya, Nepal, Vietnam, Canadá, Australia, Estados Unidos, Francia y otros. Luego de nuestra primera entrevista con Ivi Sepúlveda, astróloga y "futurista" chilena, acordamos de realizar otras periódicamente para tocar ciertos temas de interés. Es por ello, que estamos haciendo este especial de 2019 - nCoV. Hablamos por casi dos horas en que obviamente tocamos este y otros temas. Tanto los especialistas como Ivi recomiendan cuidar de la higiene personal, lo que nos permite evitar el contagio. Por ejemplo, usar sanitizante de manos, guantes, mascarillas (la que debe ser usada no mas de 3 horas. Luego desecharla), no tocarse la cara y lentes para proteger las mucosas de los ojos. Otras más son tratar de no ir a lugares públicos, así evitar ambientes contaminados. Poner atención a la dieta, en otras palabras, comer sano. No estresar el cuerpo sobre comiendo o comiendo cosas poco nutritivas. Si quieres conocer a Ivi Sepúlveda, puedes conectarte con ella a través de su grupo de Facebook, Ivi Sepulveda, mi Verdad mi Libertad o bien tomarte un café mientras ves sus videos en su canal YouTube, Ivi Sepulveda. Te prevenimos, pueden ser adictivos. passionfruitonair.com https://youtu.be/x2N_JTiO2qw

Two friends from Bindoon (Western Australia),  a town 80 kilometres at the north of Perth, launched a couple of years ago the Northern Valleys Locavore Store. They are Tamieka Preston, founder and former editor of the Northern Valleys News, and Trish Murrell, owner of the Northern Valleys Tax, also President of the Chittering Chambers of Commerce.  Their Locavore store was their answer to what they could do supporting producers and other businesses of the region. Developing this e-commerce platform they provide a marketplace between growers and food producers with consumers who want to buy local and on season products. Thus, costumers can buy online and then collect from the shop. At this moment there are tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants, diverse leaves, authentic pastured eggs, honey, avocados, olive oil, cheeses, marmalades, also wildflowers.
