Pauline Hanson’s highly publicised meetings with controversial far-right figures in the UK will drive international eyeballs to her content and continue building the global brand – and that’s by design, far-right experts say...

“A big part of One Nation’s success is that the media consistently, since 1996, have provided her [Hanson] and her party with disproportionate media coverage on platforms relative to their electoral footprint.

“[Now they’re] attaining publicity, but also creating their own content so they’re able to connect with supporters and disseminate their message without the interference or mediation of journalists.”

Jordan McSwiney, an expert in far-right politics at the University of Canberra, said he would have once urged media not to cover One Nation’s stunts but with her rise in popularity, “the horse has bolted”.

McSwiney said the best approach politicians and mainstream media could take was to focus on explaining who these figures are behind the scenes.

I have a ground floor brick apartment so I'm pretty well insulated from the summer heat for most of the day. If I can get the apartment cold enough at night by running fans (ventilation), I can often make it through the day without turning on the A/C.

That small room is the best case scenario because it has the box fan blowing in directly opposite the door which has a fan at it to pull the air out of that room.

The closest I get to the coldest night temperature is 4 degrees farenheit in that room. I'm guessing the walls are retaining some heat.

Is 4 degrees a respectable delta for $20 Lasko box fans or could I do better?

I'm cross ventilating as much as I can, but I have a weirdly shaped, weirdly windowed apartment and think I need about 3 more fans to circulate the air completely, but I don't think I do better than what I have for that one room.

These two adorable little monsters were left in a box out front of my wife's pet store, they purred so much when I was holding them. Don't worry they already have a foster, they will get well taken care of.
