Where do miners live in Australia?

Conditions on the Australian goldfields were harsh. The fields were crowded: miners had between 1 and 3 square metres of 'claim' to live and work. Conditions were unsanitary, due to the open toilet trenches. Many diggers lived in tents, or even rough, open bark shelters. Those who stayed longer sometimes built larger slab hut dwellings, but these were still very basic. People would live in small humpies made out of wood, scraps and things found around the area. Also many people would live in a canvas tent because they were cheap and portable. Later in the gold rush, when people were more certain about whether they were staying or not, people might decide to live in small cottages. These cottages often incorporated solid brick and stone fireplaces, instead of the diggers having to do all their cooking outside.

What are the top 10 schools in Perth?

Look anywhere in the Western Suburbs or 'Golden Triangle'.

CCGS (Christ Church) - located next to MLC is for boys only. Very Asian, good rowing program. Has a few hot guys.

Scotch - the boys are all man hores although do enjoy a good time and are generally hot. They are all good at sport and most are academic.

Why does it not snow in Australia?

The humidity in Antarctica is about five percent -- arid, a desert.

Blowing ice crystals circulate with the constant winds on the continent, but with such a low humidity, there is no moisture to be used as a base for forming snow flakes.

You may wonder how the ice sheet grew to its thickness without snow. The answer is that the little humidity on the continent has been building over the millennia so that it is as thick as it is -- nearly two miles thick at the South Pole.

What snow does occur falls on the peninsula, rather like snow falling on the coast of Florida -- while the continent is as large as USA and Mexico combined.

A:Snow does fall in Antarctica, but very little.

The average over the whole continent is around 166 mm (6.5 inches) per year. The high interior gets very little rainfall (50 mm or 2 inches), but parts of the Antarctic Peninsula receive more than 600 mm (2 feet).

What is the IBAN number for ANZ bank in Australia?

According to CommBank the IBAN is CTBAAU2S !

It is NOT TRUE that IBAN is only used by European banks. The system was developed in Europe as a part of the European union and has since spread worldwide. ALL your Australian banks will provide an IBAN number upon request.

CTBAAU2S is a SWIFT code not an IBAN. An IBAN is an international bank account number which includes banking information and a beneficiary's account number. Australian Banks do not use an IBAN; they use a 6-digit BSB code + account number.

How many kilometers between Brisbane Australia and Bendigo Australia?

Answer 1:

More than 1.5k - according to Google Maps, 1,616 kilometres on the shortest route.

The length of time it takes is almost a day, and that's if you continue without any breaks! For the average person, probably about 30-35 hours - including resting, food & drink, and occasional sight-seeing along the way.

Answer 2:

It is a distance of 1609km from Brisbane to Bendigo, travelling via the Gore Highway out of Toowoomba, then straight down the Newell Highway. Travel time, without breaks, is 19 hours, so it is a trip best spread over at least two days.

How many people died from Swine Flu in Australia in 2009?

Since the daily and weekly counts of cases and deaths from the swine flu, which were initially required by the CDC, WHO, and national health departments of most nations have stopped since the pandemic was declared over, there is no way to know how many now. One reason is there are still ongoing cases scattered around the world even as of early 2012. Another reason is that it was a burden on the reporting entities to try to track and report the numbers. And a large portion of people who had swine flu had mild forms and did not go to the doctor. Their cases could not be counted. And, if no lab test were done to confirm the specific type of flu, there is no way to know for sure if each case should be included in the count or if it is another type of flu.

The treatment is the same as for other types of flu, so there is no real medical need for testing to determine what form of flu someone has in most cases. For this reason, there is no definite count possible on cases of this type of flu any more.

As of October 30, 2009

There have been a total of 12,038 confirmed cases of Novel H1N1 Influenza in Canada and 91 deaths.
