Tonight Channel 9 feature a Ray Martin interview with former PM Julia Gillard. In the interview, Gillard will attempt to reinvent herself for post political employment opportunity. It is interesting the interviewer is Martin and not Laurie Oakes. Oakes is partisan ALP but part of the Rudd camp, having leaked damaging information about Gillard in favour of Rudd. Martin is partisan ALP but in the past has been called 'balanced' as he excused the ALP much when their corruption was obvious. Tonight, Gillard will lie about several significant things. Gillard will lie about how and why she deposed Rudd, claiming she was hesitant and in two minds. She has clearly been in two minds, vacillating over how her actions appear versus her need for power. She was clearly hesitant too, until she realised she didn't need to tell the truth about her activity, ever. Instead she will say that Rudd was damaged and weak, but being an ALP member, that is true of anyone, including herself. Gillard will also lie about her governments backflip to embrace a carbon dioxide tax. As subsequent events have shown, she and her colleagues always intended to foist one on the Australian Peoples and she and Swan lied when they said they wouldn't. She will lie too about her clammy embrace of corrupt parliamentarians like Carr, Slipper and Thomson. She will claim they mislead her and she trusted them. The truth is she would have used anyone to hang onto power, and did. Also, Gillard will claim she was treated poorly for her gender. Her claim that Abbott is a misogynist is a bare faced lie and the truth is much was excused her for being the worst female Prime Minister Australia has ever had. And in times to come, she will probably always be the worst ever female Prime Minister. Following Mr Abbott's election victory, ALP claimed the conservatives did not value science research as they did not have a science minister. The ministry had been poor, promoting fads, not science, and people died and the economy was encumbered as a result. However, the 2014 budget intended to create a $20 billion research fund, and the ALP has opposed it. A research fund like that is something that would be profoundly beneficial for science. Clearly the ALP have lied about their support for science. They need to embrace science and support the fund.
Terrorists have fans of science, as some loitering near Lucas Heights nuclear power station demonstrate. Just because they are four guys with beards being asked to move along does not mean Islamic peoples are being profiled unfairly. There have been planned attacks in the past and Australia has a security issue at the moment. Meanwhile a terrorist leader from Australia has a traditional past, having served time in organised crime as a brothel worker and attack dog. His own mother might have even smirked when she said she thought he was 'studying overseas.' It is not Islam, but terrorists and Islamo Fascists who use myths and excuses to murder and rape and torture a way to a new world. Sadly impotent Islamic leadership identify with the terrorists. One outrageous recent claim is that ISIS soldiers are raping women to raise a new generation of Islamic peoples. But children are not merely conceived, they are raised too, and these intended absent fathers will not achieve their claim, even as they achieve their aim. And so we have a terrorist manifesto, the voice of someone who hates us, a criminal, torturer, rapist and killer ordering his minions to go forth. And the pathetic mainstream media excuse the activity, saying there are legitimate reasons for the activity, blaming Jews for living, blaming Western culture for existing, blaming deprivation experienced by poor Islamic peoples who are badly led. But there is no excuse for terrorism. Wilkie has campaigned on one excuse. He has claimed that the invasion of Iraq was based on a lie that there were no weapons of mass destruction. He still claims this after Syria unleashed it on their own people. ALP is divided on security too. Their leader, Shorten, claims he is following the conservative lead, but his own members are saying the opposite. A french man is captured by ISIS, and Media Watch hosts of past and present sneer at raids which protect Australian peoples from similar.
A teacher has apparently used a mentally ill 14 yo girl as rape bait. The teacher's plans went awry when the girl went with a suspected violent rapist boy, also mentally ill, into the wrong lavatory. The girl was apparently raped and sodomised by the boy. There is no report yet of the teacher doing serious jail time for neglect and stupidity. A new migrant shop owner has been charged with setting an arson fire in his own business which claimed the lives of three people. Clive Palmer has claimed that Jacqui Lambie, his hand picked member of parliament in the senate, is not very bright. Seems to have taken him a long time to realise it.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

In Tanami’s red sands where spinifex grows,
Where waterholes gleam ‘neath the sun’s golden glare,
Lived Yaparla, sweet maid, with a heart pure as snow,
Her kindness a light in the desert so bare.
Her father, a wise man, kept songs for the land,
To guard the soak’s waters where life held its sway.
But drought gripped the earth with a merciless hand,
And he sought a new spring to ease their dismay.
Deep in a gorge where the rocks hid the sky,
He found a clear pool with fish dancing free.
But a voice shook the stones with a thunderous cry,
“Who steals my sweet water without leave of me?”
Out slid the Wanyarra, half-man, half a snake,
His scales flashed like opals, his eyes cold with pain.
“For your kin’s life,” he hissed, “one price I must take—
Send Yaparla to me, or your land drinks no rain.”
The father returned, his heart heavy with woe,
And told his dear daughter the serpent’s demand.
“I’ll go,” said Yaparla, her voice soft and low,
“For my people, my country, I’ll walk that red sand.”
She came to the gorge with her digging stick strong,
Singing songs of her kin ‘neath ...

To adapt the story of Bambi to the Dreamtime of Warlpiri culture in the Tanami Desert, we’ll reimagine the tale with respect for Warlpiri storytelling traditions, cosmology, and the desert environment. The Dreamtime (Jukurrpa) is a sacred framework where ancestral beings shape the land, law, and life, so Bambi’s journey will reflect Warlpiri values like kinship, connection to country, and survival in harmony with nature. I’ll keep the essence of Bambi—a young creature’s growth amid loss and discovery—while grounding it in the Tanami’s ecology and Warlpiri worldview. Since Bambi is a specific narrative, I’ll translate its core themes rather than reproduce the original text verbatim, ensuring cultural sensitivity. The story will be concise yet vivid, as requested.
Bambi in the Jukurrpa of the Tanami
In the Jukurrpa, when the Tanami Desert glowed under the first stars, the ancestral beings shaped the land. From the spinifex and red sand, they formed Jampijinpa, a young red ...
Folk Song: "The Ballad of Lee Harvey Oswald"
Verse 1
Oh, Lee Harvey Oswald, a man they did frame,
The deep state and CIA, they tarnished his name.
They said he went to Mexico, a lie they did spin,
While he fought for his service, his honor within.
Chorus
Sing for Lee Oswald, innocent and bold,
Framed by the shadows, a story untold.
With courage he stood, though the truth they denied,
A patriot’s heart in a nation that lied.
Verse 2
On that dark day in Dallas, they said he shot Tippit,
Left a wallet behind, but the tale didn’t fit.
Arrested with his own in hand, the proof was right there,
But the deep state kept spinnin’ their web of despair.
Chorus
Sing for Lee Oswald, innocent and bold,
Framed by the shadows, a story untold.
With courage he stood, though the truth they denied,
A patriot’s heart in a nation that lied.
Verse 3
They trained him in Russian, sent him off to the East,
A ...
