Daniel Dudzisz, 26, was found 17 days after he went missing while walking the 95km from Windorah about 1200km west of Bris- bane — to Jundah. He is believed to have sur- vived on a diet of flies and other insects. The German, who set off on February 17, was found stranded on an island cre- ated by floodwaters by two men driving by. After he got off the island, the pair dropped him back at the Windorah Outback Shop, where he bought a much-needed feast. ‘‘A packet of cereal, a two- litre milk, a block of cheese, some frozen party pies and a couple of other things,’’ said store owner Diane Geiger. She said it could have been worse for Mr Dudzisz — who can’t swim. ‘‘He’s very lucky that the floodwater didn’t keep ris- ing, that it’s levelled out where it did,’’ she said. ‘‘In big flood times, those islands go completely underwater.’’ Police Inspector Mark Henderson said the chances of surviving in the isolated area where Mr Dudzisz — an insulin-dependent diabetic — got stuck were ‘‘virtually non-existent’’. ‘‘He is very, very gaunt; he has lost a considerable amount of weight and there is very little doubt he was not far off perishing,’’ Insp Henderson said. ‘‘He joked about never going hungry in the Australian Outback because of the amount of flies you can eat for their protein, apparently.’’ Amazingly, Mr Dudzisz in- tends to continue his trek to Uluru after a three-day rest. Insp Henderson said while locals were glad Mr Dudzisz had been found alive, his ad- ventures had cost the com- munity time and effort dur- ing an already difficult time.

Know your latte limitBy ALEX KIDMAN

and DAVID WOOD

DRINKING too much coffee?There’s an app for that.If you’re suffering from

serious caffeine jitters, a newapp may be able to help youcontrol your coffee habit.

UP Coffee is a free appfrom Jawbone, the makersof a variety of Bluetoothgadgets, including the Jaw-bone UP.

Keeping with that fitnessand health theme, UP Coffeeis an app that tracks your

coffee consumption, corre-lates it with your height,weight, gender and the timeyou want to get to sleep.

Like the UP band, it pro-gressively builds a profile ofyour coffee use.

You can also tie it into anaccount if you’re already anUP band user to check again-st your recorded sleep.

It’ll warn you if that esp-resso is about to send youover the edge, or if that late-night latte is going to haveyou awake at 3am, althoughit’s not automatic; you’ll

have to remember to logeach cup of coffee as youdrink it, presuming you canhold your hands steady longenough to input the details.

Virginia resident LauraDibbs owns a smartphone butsaid the app was ‘‘stupid’’.

‘‘If you don’t know whenyou’ve had too much coffeethen really, you have got noidea about coffee,’’ she said.

‘‘I drink two a day and thatis it.

‘‘Some days I only haveone but I would never havemore than two.’’
