The fires more than an hour north of us are still of concern. They are still at the stage where they create their own weather. However, people in places like Marysville and Warburton, which are closer to us, are being told they can return to their homes. This comes with a caveat to stay indoors, because the smoke, and most especially that smoke you can't see, is very damaging to health. Winds have turned north, so we will be getting less smoke in Healesville, but it is lingering. Only go out with your mask!
Yesterday, I was unable to put up my CheckIn post straight away, because our power went out for several hours. It came back for several hours, then was quickly out and back up in the afternoon.

Actinomycete genomes are a rich source of unexplored phosphonate natural products. By mining 940 genome sequenced strains, researchers found 54 candidate producers and confirmed phosphonate production in 21 strains, including Kitasatospora fiedleri with a unique, LuxR regulated gene cluster. This strategy paves the way for new bioactive phosphonates with pharma and biotech potential.
