ABQ

ABQ is the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's television station in Brisbane, Queensland. It began broadcasting on 2 November 1959 and is based at purpose built headquarters on Brisbane's South Bank. The station is received throughout the state through a number of relay transmitters, and satellite transmission on the Optus Aurora free-to-view platform. ABQ's schedule largely consists of national ABC Television programming with opt outs for news & current affairs, rugby league and state election coverage.

For many years, the station was based at studios in the inner-western suburb of Toowong, with a transmitter at Mount Coot-tha. In late 2006, the Toowong studios were abandoned due to an unacceptably high rate of breast cancer at the facility. An independent study examined 10 cases of breast cancer reported at the studios, and found the incidence rate was 11 times higher than the general working community.

Up until January 2012, staff worked from several sites around Brisbane, with ABC Radio based in nearby Lissner Street, Toowong, ABC News staff working from Network Ten's Mount Coot-tha studios, ABC Innovation and Online staff working at QUT Kelvin Grove, and other staff based in locations including Coronation Drive and West End. On 10 January 2012, ABC Brisbane moved into a new facility in South Bank.

ABQ (Breaking Bad)

"ABQ" is the thirteenth and final episode of the second season of the American television drama series Breaking Bad, and the twentieth overall episode of the series.

Plot summary

The episode opens with a combined replay of the black-and-white scenes that led some of the episodes during Season Two, which show numerous first responder workers collecting and cataloging debris, including a half-burnt pink teddy bear, that had fallen around the Whites' house and its neighbors. In the distance, two columns of smoke can be seen.

Following from "Phoenix", Jesse wakes from his heroin-induced sleep to find Jane dead, having choked on her own vomit, unaware that Walt had been in his apartment and let her die. Jesse contacts Walt for help, who, feigning no knowledge of Jane's death, calls Saul. Saul sends his cleaner Mike (Jonathan Banks) to remove all evidence of drugs from Jesse's apartment and to instruct Jesse, who remains in shock from her death, how to handle any police questioning to avoid any implication he was involved in Jane's death. Donald, Jane's father, arrives at the apartment thinking she is late yet again to a rehab meeting and discovers her death, with Jesse being interviewed by the police. Jesse is unable to look Donald in the eyes, and becomes more depressed. He runs off to a crack house to try to lose himself. Walt, worried for Jesse's well-being, locates him and takes him to a rehab client.

Futurist

Futurists or futurologists are scientists and social scientists whose specialty is futurology, or the attempt to systematically explore predictions and possibilities about the future and how they can emerge from the present, whether that of human society in particular or of life on Earth in general.

Definition

The term "futurist" most commonly refers to people such as authors, consultants, organizational leaders and others who engage in interdisciplinary and systems thinking to advise private and public organizations on such matters as diverse global trends, possible scenarios, emerging market opportunities and risk management. (Futurist is not in the sense of the art movement futurism.)

The Oxford English Dictionary identifies the earliest use of the term futurism in English as 1842, to refer, in a theological context, to the Christian eschatological tendency of that time. The next recorded use is the label adopted by the Italian and Russian futurists, the artistic, literary and political movements of the 1920s and 1930s which sought to reject the past and fervently embrace speed, technology and, often violent, change.
