I am begging the PM of Australia, Mr Tony Abbott or the Premier of NSW, Mr Barry O'Farrell to come visit my unit, or send a delegate, soon. I have a claim on the PM's office. Gillard promised to address my issues through channel 7's Sunrise in '07. When she was campaigning in '10, she was escorted by my opponent Jason Clare. Gillard turned to election cameras and spoke of the dignity of work. It could have been a coded message to me. Clare has failed to represent me in parliament, and did not even campaign in '10, by arrangement with local press. I was campaigning on a social justice issue the press declined to report. I have claim on the Premier of NSW's office. A former school friend of mine who worked for some of the most corrupt ALP ministers was part of the office of Premier in '05 when he bragged to me he had written the 2004 NSW Teacher's Code of Conduct which was misused as an instrument to abuse me in '06. The office of NSW Premier has never accounted for its corrupt activity regarding me, parachuting a public servant into a mid level management position to target me for abuse.
I am begging for the visit now, because I am losing things, extraordinary things, and there will never again be an opportunity to acknowledge the loss.
I have a copy of Gladman's "Control and Teaching." It has pencilled in the front the name JP Rogers, a Principal of Sydney Boys High for some decades in the early 20th century. The book was a textbook given to beginning teachers in the nineteenth century and used in the early to mid twentieth century. A class teacher was given the book, and a class and instructed to teach. It is likely this was Roger's copy.
I have a copy of Todhunter's "Trigonometry" from 1865. Trigonometry was what the British Empire used to survey India accurately before satellites. The book is probably an early Sydney University student's book.
I have an education textbook on Motivation, edited by my father, the late Professor Samuel Ball. My dad was foundational educational evaluator of Sesame Street, as well as Pro Vice Chancellor of Sydney University and CEO of the Victorian BOS under Kennett. He wrote the original questions for Sale of the Century (actually, I think my step mum did).
I have an early numbered copy of "Werewolves of Wynyard"a limited run print of short stories by friends on a theme of Sydney and a fantasy setting. I wrote Big Heart which incorporates elements of student life at a multi cultural suburban high school in the met south west of Sydney. Dealing with drugs and youth culture.
If I can't give these away, I will have to throw them out.
What has happened to me is wrong. It is something you will feel ashamed of if you fail to address it while you can. Please, find the time, or send a delegate .. Dai Le or Zaya Toma are local councillors.
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...

How can we, like Jupurrurla, use our resourcefulness and generosity to share the abundance we discover, ensuring it strengthens our communities and honors our connection to our environment?
Below is an expanded and vivid retelling of Jupurrurla and the Forty Shadows, reimagining Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves as a Warlpiri Dreamtime story set in the Tanami Desert. This version enriches the sensory landscape, deepens Warlpiri cultural elements, and aligns with the structure of Ali Baba while incorporating echoes of The Story of the Three Bears (e.g., an intruder entering a forbidden space, consequences of greed, and a moral resolution). The narrative emphasizes Warlpiri values of kinship, respect for the land, and wisdom over greed, creating a story that resonates with both the original tale and the desert’s spiritual heartbeat.

In the radiant Tanami Desert, where spinifex spears glow like embers under a sun that scorches the earth, the red dunes hum with the songs of the...

English Folk Song: The Wanderer and the Three Goannas
Lyrics (Based on the Warlpiri Story):
(Verse 1)
In the Tanami’s glow, where the spinifex sways,
Jupurrurla roamed through the desert’s warm days.
Her curious heart found a camp in the shade,
Where three goannas’ coolamons a feast had arrayed.
(Chorus)
Oh, the wanderer bold, ‘neath the starlit sky’s gleam,
Met the three goannas in the Desert’s dream.
With a heart full of truth, she learned to amend,
Wove the land and its kin in a song without end.
(Verse 2)
Father’s tomatoes sharp, Mother’s ants far too sweet,
But Little Goanna’s wattle warmed her heart’s beat.
On their mats she tried rest—too rough, then too slick—
Till the small one’s weave held her dreams soft and quick.
(Chorus)
Oh, the wanderer bold, ‘neath the starlit sky’s gleam,
Met the three goannas in the Desert’s dream.

I'm a little disappointed with my video. I couldn't put in the images I curated. But I stand by it. I am contributing to the debate over America Party. I'm a MAGA supporter always preferred GOP, despise RINO. I likely will never vote AP, but I welcome their existance in US Democracy, noting Dem's have utterly failed.
If the Democrat party is a corrupt, and ultimately spent force, what replaces it? Should we wait for a head to grow back? Or, should we look back to the vision of Jefferson and Adams? What is your preference for the future? I read all comments. Please like and subscribe.
Below is a prog rock song in the style of Emerson, Lake & Palmer, characterized by grandiose lyrical imagery, complex narrative structure, and a blend of theatrical pomp with driving rhythms and intricate keyboard flourishes. The song, titled "Star-Spangled Visionaries," celebrates the America Party led by Elon Musk as an alternative to a corrupt Democratic establishment, draws parallels to the Jefferson-Adams ...
