The Loss of Bob Day to Family First and Australia is large. After Steven Fielding did a dummy spit to help Kevin Rudd cover up the gang rape of an Aboriginal girl in detention, Family First had little credibility. To be fair, Fielding had been told by Family First not to vote that way. Subsequently, judges told Campbell Newman that Rudd was allowed to shred evidence of the rape, because it wasn't for personal gain and he was acting for government and such corruption has been accepted by the voter. Bob Day has promoted free speech and defended cultural assets. However, as a bankrupt related to a business interest collapsing, Day has to leave parliament. It didn't turn out that way for Craig Thomson when he lied to Australia about his activity as a senior unionist for Australia's poorest employees.

Who will defend free speech in Australia? Turnbull counselled Abbott against it, and Abbott had to put it on the back burner. Turnbull promised he would bring it forward, but hasn't. ALP does not want free speech, wanting to exploit their advantage of corruption. Bob Day was willing to sponsor a member's bill. An ALP, Greens and NXT dominated senate will prevent free speech. Turnbull promised he would communicate bills better than Abbott. However it is apparent that Turnbull is communicating that he does not value free speech.

The HRC is persecuting a cartoonist, following on from their persecution of university students denied access to a computer based on their race. There is nothing more important than free speech. We cannot discuss what we need to without it. It isn't that the law is bad, but also people in position of responsibility are not responsible. So that the HRC should be dismantled.

I suggest Red Gum ward vote for David Daniel Ball. And, after asking your local councillor about their views on Trump, Same Sex Marriage and Greyhounds, try and find out what it is they will do to make garbage collection cheaper and more efficient. Ask how they will make business more profitable. Ask what they will do to help address crime. Ask what they will do to improve public transport issues locally.

Jingle Bell Rock

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...

Intro to Locals for the Conservative Voice

David Daniel Ball calls himself the Conservative Voice.

I'm a teacher with three decades experience teaching math to high school kids.I also work with first graders and kids in between first grade and high school. I know the legends of why Hypatia's dad is remembered through his contribution to Math theory. And I know the legend of why followers of Godel had thought he had disproved God's existence.

I'm not a preacher, but I am a Christian who has written over 28 books all of which include some reference to my faith. Twelve blog books on world history and current affairs, detailing world events , births and marriages on each day of the year, organised by month. Twelve books on the background to and history of Bible Quotes. One Bible quote per day for a year. An intro to a science fiction series I'm planning, post apocalyptic cyber punk. An autobiography with short story collections.

I'm known in Australia for my failure as a whistleblower over the negligence death of a school boy. ...

Phil 3:20

A worship song spreading the good news for illegal citizens too. Illegal citizens should go home. Their places assured for when they go home to Him. The best way forward is to face your troubles. Do you agree? Write your comments on this song. I read them all.

Citizen of Heaven [Verse 1] I am illegal, but my citizenship’s in heaven, Paid twenty thousand to be smuggled, chasing freedom. Many died on the journey, no refund for the pain, Smugglers threaten me and my family, trapped in chains. [Pre-Chorus] I wanted freedom but paid for chains, I was wrong to come illegally, my heart in shame. [Chorus] But now I go home, a citizen of heaven, Jesus made me a child of God, forgiven. My Savior’s calling, His love has set me free, I’m bound for glory, my home’s eternity. [Verse 2] I paid awful people, they lied to me with greed, Promised hope but left me broken, with nothing I need. In the dark, I cried out, thought I’d lost...

Luke 11:13 worship song

Part of my series of worship songs from daily bible quotes. Has the Father healed you your relationship with your parents? You are free to comment, I read them.

Below is a worship song inspired by Luke 11:13 ("If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!" ) in the style of Bethel Music or Hillsong, incorporating the themes and phrases you provided. The song is structured with verses, a chorus, and a bridge, aiming for an emotive, heartfelt, and worshipful tone with a focus on God’s love, redemption, and the Father’s heart.

Song Title: Father, You Found Me

[Verse 1] My dad never liked me, I carried the shame, I had to prove myself, but I lost the game. I failed, he died, left wounds in my soul, I still talk to my father, but I’m never whole.

[Pre-Chorus] I never knew him, how could I see? How can I know God, when ...

Rising Lion, news made into song

How do you feel about the surgical strike? Was it wrong for Israel to protect her people from nuclear annihilation? I read all comments on my work.

• Recent tensions escalated after Iran launched a missile attack on Israel on October 1, 2024, prompting Israel's retaliatory Operation Rising Lion.
• The ballad follows the Israeli folk tradition of the Horah, a circle dance with roots in Eastern European Jewish culture, adapted since 1924 in Israel.
• Lyrics begin with "Oh, Rising Lion, from the desert's heart you roar," honoring the operation's code name and Israel's resolve.
• Next verse sings, "Mossad spies danced through shadows, with drones in silent flight," reflecting the covert agents and embedded technology.
• Chorus rises, "Hand in hand we turn, under moonlit skies of might, Rising Lion guards our land tonight," echoing the communal spirit of the Horah.
• Third verse adds, "Natanz fell to precision strikes, a ...

Journey to the Tanami Desert with the Ballad of Jampijinpa, a Warlpiri Jukurrpa retelling of Bambi. Follow Jampijinpa, a young red kangaroo, as he learns the sacred laws of his Country from Napangardi, faces dangers like the machine’s shadow, and rises as a leader under the Seven Sisters’ stars. This Dreamtime story celebrates Warlpiri culture, resilience, and connection to the land. Comment your favorite Indigenous story below! Subscribe for more Warlpiri tales and join my Locals for exclusive Jukurrpa insights.
The story of Bambi is, for many, their first encounter with profound loss. Writing this story in Warlpiri Dreamtime, Tanami Desert context. Loss is part of life, yet life goes on. But, a good life, serving the community is also important. How do Indigenous stories like Jampijinpa’s inspire you?
 
Notes on the Adaptation: Setting and Characters: The Tanami Desert replaces the forest, with native animals (red kangaroo, dingo, mallee fowl, perentie) as characters, reflecting the local ecology. Warlpiri skin names (Jampijinpa, Napangardi, etc.) root the characters in kinship systems, central to Warlpiri identity. Jukurrpa: The Dreamtime frames the story as a sacred narrative, where loss and growth are part of the land’s law. The “shadow” (a machine) nods to modern intrusions like mining, a real threat in the Tanami, but keeps the story timeless. Themes: Bambi’s coming-of-age becomes a journey of learning country and law, emphasizing Warlpiri values of responsibility and connection. The mother’s death and the fire echo Bambi’s trials but are grounded in desert realities. Cultural Respect: I avoided inventing sacred details or mimicking restricted Warlpiri stories, focusing on universal elements (land, kinship, survival) informed by public Warlpiri narratives, like those shared in art or ethnographies.
 
The Ballad of Jampijinpa In Tanami’s heart where the spinifex sways, ‘Neath the Jukurrpa’s first starlit blaze, The ancestors carved from the red desert’s hand, Young Jampijinpa, to guard sacred land.
Chorus: Oh, Jampijinpa, with bounds swift and free, Carry the law of your country’s decree. Through sand and through sorrow, your spirit will roam, In the Tanami’s dreaming, you’ll always find home.
Napangardi taught him the desert’s old ways, Where soakages shimmer through blistering days. The bilby’s soft tracks led to yams in the ground, And the wind whispered tales when no rain could be found. With Jangala, dingo, he leaped o’er the plain, While Nungarrayi tidied the earth’s ancient pain. The oaks sang of patience, the elders stood near, Their ochre-lit eyes guiding young kangaroo’s fear. But dawn brought a shadow, a roar cold as stone, A machine’s cruel hunger tore flesh from the bone. Napangardi fell, her spirit took flight, To the ancestors’ campfire in the starwoven night.
Chorus: Oh, Jampijinpa, with bounds swift and free, Carry the law of your country’s decree. Through sand and through sorrow, your spirit will roam, In the Tanami’s dreaming, you’ll always find home.
Alone, he wandered, his heart like a stone, The sand stung his eyes, and the silence did moan. But Japangardi rose, scales gleaming bright, “You’re never lost, son, in the Jukurrpa’s light.” The bilby taught digging, the oak whispered peace, Nungarrayi scratched paths where the stories increase. Jangala’s yips brought a laugh to the blaze, And Jampijinpa grew strong through the desert’s hard days. Then Nakamarra, with dawn in her gaze, Danced by his side through the sandhills’ soft maze. But fire returned, born of shadow’s old sin, Yet Jampijinpa led kin to the soakage within.
Chorus: Oh, Jampijinpa, with bounds swift and free, Carry the law of your country’s decree. Through sand and through sorrow, your spirit will roam, In the Tanami’s dreaming, you’ll always find home.
Atop the red dune, his shadow stretched far, A keeper of law ‘neath the desert’s bright star. The elders now sing from their camp in the sky, And Jampijinpa’s tracks never fade, never die.
Final Chorus: Oh, Jampijinpa, your story’s been spun, A thread in the Jukurrpa, forever begun. The Tanami dreams, and its stars softly call, For the kangaroo’s heart that will never grow small.
