MH17 forgery
MH17 photograph exposed as a forgery. Plane is flying in wrong direction and contains wrong details for the actual craft. In all probability, the entire tragedy is a Washington sting against Russia. Russia should never have allowed the equipment to be used by the separatists, but important questions need to be asked of Ukraine too .. like why they failed to warn Malaysia of the war they were fighting as well as the likelihood they deliberately got Russian separatists to target MH17. Blame Washington .. they got upset with Russia over Syria and negotiations on Iran .. and encouraged an illegitimate government in Ukraine to bid for economic independence and to deny Russia access to their naval port .. that, is the proximate cause of all of this. But, in the meantime, there is an intelligence war. The release of phone calls hours after the tragedy suggest Washington planned a smear well.
Islamo fascist bloody fail
Australia contributed four jihadis brothers to IS. Two so obese they could barely walk. Their mother is puzzled as to what has attracted them, saying they are simple boys. But simple is the kind of person who is attracted to the organisation killing Muslims and others. Meanwhile IS kills an Islamic convert who had been an aid worker, and then kills sixteen Islamic peoples who were soldiers for Syria. The killings have been deplored by world leaders, but impotent Islamic leaders are still not sure if there is sufficient evidence that the terrorists are not in fact Islamic.
Equal pay for female tech writer?
A female tech writer who was outraged by a shirt worn by an eminent scientist has claimed she has received death threats. It is wrong to threaten the life of such fools. Take away their livelihood. They listen to money, so they say. The tech writer had been outraged by the shirt of an astro physicist who had managed the unique feat of landing a probe on an asteroid.
Free Trade with China
The free trade deal with China has been signed. SMH are concerned about an arrangement which is already built into immigration whereby Chinese workers can be employed at Chinese projects if no Australian has the requisite skill. The 457 visa already exists for just that. Some things are not covered, like Sugar, rice and wheat. However there will be substantial expansion in key markets like education, finance, tourism and health. Also, 85% of all sales will be tariff free, expanding to 95% in a decade.
Left wing fails
Laura Tingle misrepresented Mr Abbott's success at the G20. Mr Abbott managed to have the final communique reflect economic ambitions as Obama crowed emptily over climatic ones. However, Laura was not the only idiot fooled. Many on ABC and Channel 9 lied about what had happened at the conference. On the Insiders the panel agreed that the 'shirtfront' comment was not understood by the panel but had not affected the summit. Malcolm Farr felt that Abbott shouldn't be allowed to say such confusing things.
Sky News is taking on the role of national broadcaster, getting coverage of political debates as the ABC cannot be trusted.
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 ...
AI adapted
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 ...
