Victoria has tweaked its scheme to pay the university fees of nurses and midwives, amid doubts that such initiatives work. Last August, Victorian premier Daniel Andrews announced that his government would make university 'free' by covering the Higher Education Contribution Scheme (Hecs) fees of more than 10,000 new nursing and midwifery students. 'If you're in year 12 and you've been thinking about studying nursing or midwifery, go for it,' he said. 'We've got your Hecs fees covered.' The scheme was part of a 'massive hiring and upskilling initiative' aimed at 'building an army of home-grown health workers to care for Victorians'.

(Photo credit: Lucy Chian via Unsplash) Using machine learning, an international team that included two researchers from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa found human-produced carbon dioxide emissions and climate change have already caused an increase in day-to-day rainfall fluctuations over the tropical eastern Pacific and the mid-latitudes. The study was published in Nature . "Climate model projections indicate that warming will intensify rainfall variability and extremes, such as heavy rains and drought conditions, across many regions of the globe," said Malte Stuecker, study co-author and assistant professor in the UH Mānoa School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST).

VIVA  –  North Korea will punish its citizens involved in "anti-socialist behavior" such as dyeing their hair , wearing unapproved or tight-fitting clothing styles, and brewing or making alcoholic beverages by sending them to work in farm, according to residents in the country as reported by Radio Free Asia. "Anti-socialist behavior" is a vague term used by the North Korean government to describe activities considered to be South Korean, foreign, or capitalist cultural practices. In 2020, the country enacted the Law on the Rejection of Reactionary Thought and Culture, which imposes penalties for certain anti-socialist actions, including several years of imprisonment for watching South Korean media.
