In order to protect the world's iconic marine wildlife including whales, sea turtles and sharks, we first have to understand their biology. However, this is often easier said than done. In this 45-minute interactive lesson, students will be taken around the world to learn about new and exciting ways that marine scientists are uncovering the lives of these elusive creatures. Track humpback whales as they feed in Alaska, and come along for the ride as video cameras are deployed on sea turtles in Western Australia. The lesson uses photos and videos from a variety of active research projects, begins with historical context about human impacts on marine wildlife populations and ends with a discussion of what students can do in their lives to help learn about and protect our oceans.

BRISBANE, Australia – A man charged in the death of a New Zealand tourist who plummeted from his apartment balcony after the two began arguing during a date was found not guilty of murder on Thursday. Tinder date found NOT GUILTY of killing Warriena Wright after she plunged 14 floors to her death https://t.co/WCKOHWnAT1 A Queensland state Supreme Court jury also acquitted Gable Tostee, 30, of the lesser offense of manslaughter in the death of 26-year-old Warriena Wright, who fell from Tostee's balcony in 2014 after the two met through the dating app Tinder. He had faced a life sentence if convicted. Prosecutors did not allege that Tostee threw Wright to her death, but had argued she was so scared of Tostee that she fell 14 floors while trying to escape from his apartment balcony in the city of Gold Coast.

An Australian man has been acquitted of the murder of a New Zealand woman during their first Tinder date. Gable Tostee, 30, was charged after Warriena Wright, 26, fell from his balcony in Queensland's Gold Coast in August 2014. Prosecutors argued that she was so intimidated that she tried to escape by climbing to a lower floor, but fell. After four days of deliberation, the jury found him not guilty of murder and manslaughter. Defence lawyer Nick Dore said outside the court that his client was "relieved this matter is now behind him and he's looking forward to moving on with his life".

Building a quantum computer has been called the'space race of the 21st century' – a difficult and ambitious challenge, with the potential to deliver revolutionary tools. Now an invention by engineers in Australia may have brought us one step closer to achieving the goal. The team designed a new kind of quantum bit, which can retain information for 10 times longer than ever previously achieved. The new quantum bit, known as a'dressed qubit' has been designed by researchers at the University of New South Wales, and is made up of the spin of a single atom in silicon, merged with an electromagnetic field (artist's impression) Quantum computing takes advantage of the ability of subatomic particles to exist in more than one state at any time. In traditional computers, data is expressed in one of two states – known as binary bits – which are either a 1 or a 0. But quantum computers use quantum bits, or qubits.

The desktop and smart phone revolutions were really just the beginning. From conversations with giant tech companies like Cisco, Google and Xero, you get the impression that we have only scratched the surface of what technologies like the cloud, the Internet of Things, and Artificial Intelligence have to offer. The business world has already been transformed but small businesses and entrepreneurs in Australia and around the world are about to be handed a new level of power and opportunity in the connected world. The coming decade will see leaps and bounds in what our devices can do as they connect to the enormous power of the cloud. Meanwhile, the sheer number of devices connected will explode, from around 7 billion now to upwards of 50 billion by 2020.

ThinkTV is proud to announce the formation of an independent laboratory to carry out cutting-edge research into the performance of TV advertising, in partnership with leading international media academic Professor Karen Nelson-Field (pictured above) and Media Intelligence Co. The laboratory's forthcoming two-year research program will help advertisers and media agencies get the best out of TV by providing robust evidence and greater clarity about how multiplatform TV advertising delivers business results. The ThinkTV Smart Lab is directed by Karen Nelson-Field, Professor of Media Innovation at the University of Adelaide and CEO of research joint venture, Media Intelligence Co. (MIC). The purpose-built facility will examine TV's impact on brand and advertiser performance and will use artificial intelligence technologies to remove human error and bias. It is funded by ThinkTV but remains independent to ensure research rigour and credibility.

The funk of "24K Magic" is just too mighty to contain. Mars performed his latest single Saturday night and it was definitely a "crowd participation encouraged" moment as the pop star waggled his way through the high-energy audience.

From the increasingly judgmental voiceover to the "Normal Clothes" for men store, Saturday Night Live's "Chonk" commercial is a passive aggressive nightmare scenario. This is what body shaming looks like when it's couched in "friendly" terms. Yes, it's intentionally over the top and played for laughs, but it's also -- sadly -- not a huge stretch from the reality we know.

Really, what chance does the robot apocalypse have if the whole thing can be undone by not turning on Airplane Mode? The latest Saturday Night Live peered into the future of robotics technology with two mechanical food servers that go to pieces around cellular signals. Leslie Jones is there to keep them in line, but really, she's part of the problem.
