problem solved... the spiritual has been replaced by spirits...

drinking and gambling...
Tonight as I watched the story of Rome, the first Empire — an episode on Tiberius Gracchus and his dealings with the senate in regard to land ownership and the way Rome was about to descend into a more violent society after his assassination — I was musing on my youth, when barely in first year of secondary school we would be forced to learn about the Greeks and the Romans history. 

intelligent design is a dumb idea, promoted by uncle rupert to retard the science of global warming...

If intelligent design ever was a smidgin of godly tempering on the universe, it would soon have been like the inside of a frozen circus-tent on its space time co-ordinates, with energetic jumping dumb clowns stopped in mid-air. 


 

a dumb illegal idea... A MASSIVE FAUX PAS. A MASSIVE FUCUP, A MASSIVE BALLS UP...

 

a dumb comment...

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull today confirmed the attack.

a dumb design that makes no sense at all is used to bash richard dawkins...

a joke...

Not a week goes pass without Richard Dawkins being attacked by some of the pseudo-scientists of the dumb religious designer department. To them Dawkins is the devil incarnate. Mind you Dawkins always pops his head where he knows he will be hit by the religious mob for stirring anti-godot controversy.

 

advertising the news... because the murdoch-run newspapers don't want to talk about it...

bleaching

Scientists say they are fed up with Queensland’s biggest newspaper not covering the worst bleaching event to hit the Great Barrier Reef, so have taken out a full page ad to get the message out.


The ad comes as a survey revealed 93% of the Great Barrier Reef was affected by the bleaching. That finding motivated the Queensland government to call on the federal government to convene an urgent meeting of the nation’s environment ministers to talk about measures to address climate change in light of bleaching.

 

barbecueing the planet...

march

The Earth sizzled in March with the most unusually warm month in recorded history as average land surface temperatures easily exceeded levels deemed by scientists to constitute dangerous climate change.

The abnormal weather has continued into April as the most powerful tropical cyclone ever recorded in the Indian Ocean dumped rain at rates reaching 300 mm an hour, and Australian scientists declared the worst coral bleaching event ever on the Great Barrier Reef.

your NBN is not in your area... you can't afford it anyway and then it will splutter with clapped out copper. Brilliant...

Millions of Australians live in households without internet access, according to the World Economic Forum, who have awarded Australia the lowest scoring country in the category of affordability for internet access.

lantana, privet, cane toads, pox, cats, TPPs, roundup, rabbits, guns...

pox...

I hate the expression exactly correct... but I will go straight to the crux of the matter. Australia is about to loose its "rigourous" border protection system for exotic diseases and feral animals as the TPP will be enforced. As well as pointed out by Catalyst ABC/TV food import in this country is tested for antibiotics but not for bacterial content.

George Brandis says the science of climate change is not settled – politics live

Attorney general plunges into climate controversy during debate on CSIRO funding, as Malcolm Turnbull confirms election is all but certain to be on 2 July. All the developments from Canberra

The glorious Uncle Rupe network is everywhere. Some of its branches are running at a loss. Such losses in any independent press outfits would lead to catastrophic bankruptcy. The Australian for example has not made a profit as I know of since its inception in 1964. 

 

turnbull political stunt, protocol and royalities...

 

stuff the protocol

10:45am: Senator Parry is having none of it: "This is the last bastion of standing orders that we must defend."

Senator Conroy moves away from anything of a regal or vice-regal nature and confines himself to the government's motives (with space for a swipe at the Greens).

clowning about

"Democracy" said satirist H. L. Mencken "is the art and science of running the circus cage".

So, to prepare myself for Monday's special sitting of Parliament, I went to the circus over the weekend. (Actually, friends with a wry sense of humour bought me a ticket.)

The great Moscow circus no less, in – appropriately - Canberra.

The multi-trick ponies, camels, alpacas, a buffalo and a Macaw did their routines on cue with a precision and timing that the whips of the major parties could only dream of.
