Hi Julie.
Mwah!
Rog – dancing around in the kitchen (while doing the dishes) with my erstwhile sister, looking out on a Sydney night sky in 1975.
I remember listening to it driving my parent’s HQ Holden on a tinny AM radio. Great song but a hypocritical rich man who wore guy-liner and make up in that Dancing in the Dark clip with a then hawt Courtney Cox.
I’m an unashamed Lou fan, Rabz.
Springsteen has never floated my boat, though.
Could we hear some examples, please, Cats? I’m not aware of his work*, unless it was blended into some others’ work. He ended up in the E-Street Band, hailed as a “teenage guitar prodigy” and apparently is still in there. Also, he played Fenders?
*Yeah, yeah, pardon me ignorance, etc … 😕
Emergency Department CCTV.
Reals – Who here* has never been a hypocritical personage in their lives?
It’s why I’m no longer a collectivist. The hypocrisy became unbearable.
*Feel free to step forward and confess, you bourgeois criminals! 🙂
Am I being naive? No, I not.
I think you’re missing the point. I’m not suggesting manufacturing isn’t growing in Dollar terms each year as it obviously can without increasing its relative share of GDP. What I’m saying, and also pointing out, is that we have a very large mining sector in relative terms and incidentally, also quite a significant agricultural sector. We also have limited investment resources. Investment needs to find its way to our most efficient industry sectors in terms of ROI. If manufacturing was a returning a relatively high return, capital would find its way to that sector. But it’s not. We have two of the most efficient sectors in the world, which are mining and agriculture. Diverting capital away from these two sectors to manufacturing through government edict would lower our living standard in relative terms, so be happy with what we have. Leave our capital allocation structure well enough alone as we’re doing really well.
Capitalism is risk. Life is risk. We need to be flexible in times of adversity.
I think I may have sparked gittar wars 2.0.
This could be bigger than trucks vs trains.
Mrs. Richards. Of course.
He certainly wasn’t rich when he wrote that song. In the prior album, The Wild, The Innocent, and the E Street Shuffle there is the song, Rosie, with the line “but your daddy doesn’t know the record company just gave me a big advance.” That album was never going to be a commercial success because too many of the songs were long ballads but it did demonstrate his song writing ability and the maturity of the band. Born to Run was clearly produced to be the big commercial hit. It has great songs but it is so different from The Wild. “Jungleland” is “fighting for the record machine”. Do people listen to lyrics anymore or am I a freak in that regard?
Then prepare for a visit from this very convincing man, Joh.
You’ll be loving this li’l ditty before you know it. 🙂
WHAT?
So you have no interest in Ormerod’s concept of path dependency.
In order to get things into perspective, mining is .9% of American GDP. Yes, that’s a point in front of the 9. Whereas as mining in 15% of Australian GDP, which also has extremely high wage rates and is without question the most efficient mining sector in the world.
Mining is arguably a form of making stuff too.
Even more when you hear this version.
Sacré bleu. I retreated here to escape the banality of economics, JC, not to revel in it. 😕
John H,
I don’t quite get what you’re suggesting and why?
This one?
An acquired taste.
Reals – Who here* has never been a hypocritical personage in their lives?
Of course you’re right, Rabz. Anonymity means I can switch self-awareness off. I guess if the Boss was a one hit wonder with Born to Run, he would not have a duel career as a snarling Democrat.
I’ve never worn make-up or guy-liner though. Well, not in public at any rate.
I qwite wiked it. 🙂

I went to two of his converts in the US. One was at the Garden and the other was in New Jersey (I know, how could I, right?). He gave me our money’s worth as he played for around 3 hours at each concert.

Thanks, Squire, we have ourselves a serious study in contrasts.
The Johnny C version is dark, slow, searing and not in the least bit romantic.
The Springsteen version is more up tempo, slightly more listener friendly and transformed into a romantic tale.
You have done well. We need more such analysis of the seemingly anodyne pop songs that blight our lives. So they can be drip fed to the Bosi before his next confrontational contretemps with a magistrate. 🙂

He’s an entertainer. Who gives a rats what the fuck he thinks about the economy, US Russia relations or Trump? Folks need to stop listening to entertainers about anything other than their specialty, which is entertaining.
I’ve been forced to listen to a lot of Springsteen (some of my best friends think he’s the bees’ knees) and it has had no effect on my opinion.
It’s the same with Mozart. I know he was a genius, but despite having listened to a great deal of it – my father is a huge fan – it does nothing for me at all.
I doubt that we have much control over our musical likes and dislikes/indifferences.
You’re investing heavily in biotech. There is enough capital to spread it across industries. We excel at mining and agriculture but that doesn’t exclude investment in other sectors. It’s like an investment portfolio: spread it around. Biotech, IT, prosthetics, machine learning, energy infrastructure are all going to be huge industries down the track and we have enough talent and capital to least have a shot at those industries.
Exactly. If I want the lowdown on the Wussia/’kraine contretemps, I’ll ask good ol’ Arks, as opposed to Miss Ellie or Janet Planet. 🙂
Tips for advancing in the queue in A&E:-
.1 Tell them you are related to one of the higher ups in a particular medical field;
.2 Update them every five minutes on how long you’ve been waiting;
.3 Tell them the person who queue jumped you doesn’t look terribly sick;
.4 Make loud phone calls to relatives complaining about how long it is taking;
.5 Tell them you have something really quite important to attend to and can’t afford to hang around;
.6 Ask the Indian doctor where he got his degree;
.7 Tell the young intern you would prefer someone with more experience;
.8 And, of course, insist on seeing the manager;

Specifically, I own two US biotech ETFs which have about 20 stocks in each fund. I don’t fucking know which stock is going to the moon, but there’s a chance one or even a couple will. I’m not a scientist. What’s the point?
Yes, there’s enough capital for Australia to have a manufacturing sector of 7% of GDP and mining at 15%. Capital should be allowed to and find the highest return. Once you fuck around with this it begins to impact living standards.
No, it doesn’t.
There’s no claim here that investment in any sector should be zero. Just allow investors to make a choice on their own without subsidies or restrictions.

Speaking of the summer of 75-76- my favorite
We don’t have much control. It’s obvious our tastes are very much formed before we’re 25 and only a sustained conscious effort to search out and listen to new music can change that. Sometimes we have train our senses to appreciate something new in our world. I can still remember listening to Luminescence for weeks and then one day it just struck me how beautiful parts of it were(though for the most part Jarrett butchered the orchestral composition, saved in part by Garbarek’s playing).
With the exception of 2 song on The Wild I’ve long stopped listening to Springsteen. Mozart is too pretty for me. I prefer modern classical music from the likes of ECM Records and lately picked up some wonderful music from the Polish musician Hania Rani. It’s not for everyone but because I listen to music so much of course I have to spread my likes around. This lament is an old favourite of mine.

Wifey hates Springsteen. I almost had to drag her to those two concerts. She reckons he screams his songs.
After last night I can safely eliminate one musical genre from my favourites.

Miss Ellie, expounding on those regrettable difficulties in Eastern Europe. 🙂
The Expanse is pretty damn good: novels and series.
Biotech is a huge risk. It’s impossible even for the bods to know what will pan out. I read a report today about a very promising breakthrough for cancer treatment. It intrigued me because the study highlighted how inhibiting the A2A receptor very much heightened the immune response against tumours and I know that caffeine inhibits A2A but that wasn’t mentioned in the report, possibly because the bods don’t know that. They developed a drug to do the job. Will it work? Perhaps. Caffeine certainly won’t because we’d have to consume so much of it our hearts would explode. That’s the catch with this treatment, anything that inhibits A2A could have disastrous cardiac implications but of course they didn’t mention that in the study because they want that funding money coming through the door.
My bad, I misunderstood you. Sorry.
Like so many series these days I enjoy the first 1-3 seasons then it gets boring.
There is a great line is an under appreciated 2 season comedy series, Party Down. “Acting has to be simple because actors are dumb.”
After Meat Loaf’s recent death, I think I read that the first record company rejected Bat out of Hell because they thought it was a Springsteen parody. Listening to it I can see why. It’s got that same jangly Spector Wall of Sound style.
I guess simple minds are very easy to please.
Anyone watching We Crash on Apple +. I cannot believe how those idiots ended up getting so much money for investment in real estate.
That is what pushes my buttons.
We had a suggestion earlier that we produce cheap coal fired power (so far so good) and then subsidise it to turbo charge manufacturing.
No.
Just no.

Wut?

The road to Ukraine started with 1999’s Kosovo War
Supporters of NATO’s war on Yugoslavia have no right to talk about law, sovereignty or borders
Pretty much everyone who has spent the past month moralizing about the sanctity of borders, sovereignty of countries, and how unacceptable it was for great powers to “bully” smaller neighbors – thinking of Russia and Ukraine – paused on Thursday to sing praises to a woman that championed all of those things back in 1999. Except since it was NATO doing them to Yugoslavia, Madeleine Albright was a hero and an icon, obviously.
On March 24, 1999, NATO launched an air war against Serbia and Montenegro, then known as the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. The publicly stated aim of Operation Allied Force was to compel Belgrade to accept the ultimatum given at the French chateau of Rambouillet the month before: Hand the province of Kosovo over to NATO “peacekeepers” and allow ethnic Albanian separatists to declare independence.
When the bombers failed to achieve that within a couple of weeks, the narrative changed to NATO acting to stop a “genocide” of Albanians its cheerleader press claimed was taking place. That narrative also credited the first-ever female US secretary of state for the “humanitarian” bombing, calling it “Madeleine’s War.”
In the end, it took 78 days and a negotiated armistice for NATO troops to enter Kosovo wearing the fig leaf of a UN peacekeeping mission. They promptly turned the province over to the “Kosovo Liberation Army” terrorists, who proceeded to burn, loot, murder and expel over 200,000 non-Albanians. A real campaign of terror, intimidation, ethnic cleansing and pogroms began – and the very same media that covered for NATO by making up atrocities during the bombing now turned a blind eye, for the same reason.
*READ MORE: NATO bombing of Serbia: Tragedy in three acts
Whatever its outcome, however, it was an evil little war, launched because the US felt it could. Because Washington wanted to get rid of the restraints posed by the UN to its new global hegemony, articulated just a few years earlier by Bill Kristol and Victoria Nuland’s husband Robert Kagan. Because the rising American Empire wanted to send a message to Eastern Europe that no dissent would be tolerated, and to Russia that it was no longer a great power worth respecting.
A legalistic mind might point out that the attack violated Articles 2, 53 and 103 of the UN Charter, NATO’s own charter – the North Atlantic Treaty of 1949 (articles 1 and 7) – as well as the Helsinki Final Act of 1975 (violating the territorial integrity of a signatory state) and the 1980 Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, for using coercion to compel a state to sign a treaty.
Ah, but being a world empire means making its own “rules-based order” to supplant inconvenient laws. So an “independent commission” of cheerleaders was put together to declare the operation “illegal but legitimate,” arguing it was justified because it “liberated” the Kosovo Albanians from Serb “oppression.”
The actual oppression of non-Albanians as NATO troops stood idly by – including during the vicious pogrom of March 2004 – doesn’t count, obviously. The important thing is that Bill and Hillary Clinton, Madeleine Albright, and British PM Tony Blair got monuments, streets, and even children named after them.
The “independent” Kosovo – proclaimed in 2008, in a move about as legal as the 1999 war – can’t actually do anything without the permission of the US ambassador. A great triumph of human rights, law and order, and democracy, everyone!
*READ MORE: Kosovo: A decade of dependence
NATO never cared about saving Albanian lives. If it did, it wouldn’t have partnered with the KLA, which made a point of murdering ethnic Albanians who wanted peace with the Serbs. It wouldn’t have repeatedly bombed refugee columns, then declaring it was really the Serbs’ fault somehow and that pilots dropped their bombs “in good faith” – literally something NATO spokesman Jamie Shea said on one occasion.
Twenty years on and nothing has changed. Having obliterated a family in Kabul by a drone strike last August, the US offered blood money, but refused to so much as reprimand anyone involved. Being an empire means never having to say you’re sorry. This mindset propelled the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
Meanwhile, failure to overthrow the government in Belgrade through war led to a “color revolution” in Serbia instead. It was then exported to other places – including Ukraine, twice. That 2014 coup in Kiev literally started the conflict in eastern Ukraine, of which the current events are but the latest phase.
In March 1999, I was a student in the American Midwest, and had been (almost) successfully brainwashed into believing the platitudes about freedom, democracy, tolerance, objectivity, rules and laws, and how the US was a “force for good” in the world. Then, overnight, people I thought had been my friends called me a monster and believed every single bit of propaganda that came off the TV screens and newspaper pages.
*READ MORE: Experts warned for decades that NATO expansion would lead to war: Why did nobody listen to them?
I’ve made justice and remembrance something of my life mission since then, seeking to explain that rather than a good, noble and humanitarian war, Kosovo represented everything wrong about the modern world: “A monument to the power of lies, the successful murder of law, and the triumph of might over justice,” as I wrote in 2005, and repeated every year since.
The twist this year is that the people shrieking about human rights, international law and the sanctity of borders – when it comes to their client regime in Ukraine, that is – were all cheering for NATO back in 1999. Even now, they won’t apologize for it, much less disavow. So it seems it’s not really about what is being done, only who is doing it to whom. While I understand their anger as the world their lies propped up comes crashing down, they hardly have standing to complain.

Nebojsa Malic is a Serbian-American journalist, blogger and translator, who wrote a regular column for Antiwar.com from 2000 to 2015, and is now senior writer at RT.
On my last visit to my “medical centre” (for an ECG), I wandered in to find some bloke holding his stomach and wailing at intervals, obviously in great pain. He had a plastic bag with him into which he vomited a clear green liquid at regular intervals. No-one in the centre — staff or waiting patients — turned a hair.
Then the bloke lay down on the floor, still screaming in pain, still vomiting.
Finally, one of the staff wandered over to him.
“Get up, Andrew”, she said. “If you want to lie down, go over there”, indicating a three-seater settee off to one side.
“But it HURTS!” he wailed.
“Yes”, she said. “Withdrawal usually does.”
The one doctor on duty came out a few minutes later, snapped “Follow me!” at him and strode off to the treatment rooms.
They came back a few minutes after that and went into the doctor’s small “room”, where much shouting was heard. When the door finally opened, the young bloke came out, sans vomit bag, sans wailing and almost skipped out the front door.

The Steinman was a Spector acolyte, Reels, with access to better equipment, which made his excesses even more unforgivable.
Wall o’ sound, turned up to eleventy.
The first track was (entirely unsurprisingly) not a single. We listened to it in 1984 about three times, joking about how preposterous it was.
But the album did gift this planet the mighty Ellen Foley, who was later disgustingly written out of the album’s mythology.
All the female vocals on the album are hers. Do not let anyone else tells you otherwise.
Over the last few years or so, luxury mechanical watches have exploded in price. Parts of the watch market has probably gone insane – Rolex and Patek sports watches for example – with new models able to be sold for multiples of the RRP on the second hand market.
Here is another example of the insanity watches are causing at the minute. Omega make the Speedmaster Professional – the first watch on the moon. You can buy a new steel version of this watch now for between $9,000 and $11,000. Omega is owned by Swatch, the cheap watch manufacturer. Now Omega and Swatch have combined to make a MoonSwatch. A bioceremic (plastic) coloured watch with a Speedmaster face and quartz movement. The cost will be about $500, maybe less.
The MoonSwatch went on sale today (in Europe, dunno about Australia). Check out the queue in Amsterdam.
It is a good looking watch though.
If I recall correctly, a few years ago the ‘smart money’ was saying that the iWatch would relegate these timepieces to their scrap metal value.
Overheard an alt-left youngling talking on the bus today.
“If peaceful protest could change anything, they’d make it illegal.”
If ever there was a saying that was appropriate for that “black and white arms shake hands” meme, that would have to be it.
So, here you go.
Speaking of Bat out o’ Hell – the guitarist on the opening track is none other than the mighty Todd Rundgren.
The song peaks from about 50 to 115 seconds, before the oaf first starts screeching.
All of the rest is waiting for Miss Ellen to front up and set them straight.
I have never knowingly heard a song by Bruce Springsteel.
I think I’ve heard at least one by Meatloaf.
I don’t know if these programs still exist but unbeknowns to most Aussies State and Federal governments subsidize SMEs on a regular basis through programs usually managed by public servants whom apparently government thinks are good at picking winners. I don’t know how much money is involved.
Now look at this recent announcement.

No-one will challenge it as a bad idea but read this …
https://theconversation.com/recruiting-more-mental-health-workers-wont-stop-suicides-preventing-child-abuse-and-neglect-will-171110
In the last decade Antidepressant prescribing has gone through the roof, we have massively expanded government subsidized access to mental health services, yet rates of suicide are stable or perhaps slightly raised, depression and anxiety rates are stable or slightly raised, but apart from that brave soul who wrote The Conversation article who is going to protest about the increased funding?
BTW, the idea of reducing child abuse and neglect is completely validated by the research. I could wax lyrical about that and of course it is extremely relevant to that demographic that keeps insisting whitey is the cause of all their problems.
Same-same in Melbourne and Sydney. Watch was $260 (according to the teev.) Thousands lined up for city blocks — to find they only had a couple of hundred watches to sell.
That’s settled then.

It’s one thing to Nuff-rage about Slavs being Slavs and calling everyone you’ve set yourself against Nazis, SRR.

“For the same reason that President Xi doesn’t meet with our ambassador in China,” he said.
“When we have a situation where China has completely blocked any minister-to-minister dialogue, until that block is removed, I think Australians would think it would be very inappropriate for me to engage with that ambassador”
sometimes Morrison has a spine

Funny old world, some worked part time in ‘factories’ during school holidays so they could buy more fashion accessories, others left school at 14 to work arvo shift, full time in metal fabrication factories, to help their poor mother with the bills.
You’d think that the commonalities would override the differences but I usually find those who worked in their youth for personal financial advancement, have an even harder time understanding those who had to work to live.
Quite true Dot but Australians have turned from being doers to takers. Not only can’t and won’t do things for themselves but won’t think either in case it hurtie what passes for brains. We have become fat and lazy as a nation.
In prisen terms GreyRanga, institutionalization.
No, it’s actually an example of the level of education God fearing home schoolers give their children, which is the level of education kids used to get in the long ago days when ‘The West’ was still faithfully Christendom.
It’s amazing when you look back at primary school exams in ‘the olden days’ and realize just how much young children were capable of learning that actually materially benefitted their lives & those of others.

Electric cars aren’t evil.
The idea that EV is comparable to ICE right now and can without widespread nukes can lower CO2, is misguided.
That’s even dubious if mitigation passes a CBA. The Stern Report made some woeful double counting errors in its CBA.

The move up in the oil price has convinced me to buy a Mercedes 400 EV and I don’t give a shit about gerbiling.
At a 150 bucks a tank fill, EV is a very good economic proposition.
If you are going to buy an electric it probably makes more sense to do it now. By the time they predominate there won’t be enough power to run them.

In an ideal world, more EVs will force governments to make very hard decisions if an energy shortage is on the horizon. The choice can only be Nuke or more coal plants.
Fuck that, I’m so angry about this. This weekend – Friday afternoon and Saturday morning , I spent 152 plus 135 bucks on filing up two cars.
That’s ~three dollars on fuel when the equivalent fill would be 15 bucks for an EV.
Remember when Sunday mean sitting down and watching how the Gillard government would be a good government if only it could get clean air? Just wait for the election.
Whoops… and gas fired.
I think the telling thing here is what is happening in the aviation industry with all the climate change agenda.
They have realised there is nothing that can be sensibly be done to planes themselves, so they came up with the term “Sustainble Aviation Fuels” (SAF).
Now, a SAF is, in its substance, completely indistinguishable from fossil aviation fuel. It’s not even an invention, it’s just a definition. Basically, all they are saying is they need the exact same thing as before, just made in a non-fossil fuel way somehow.
And so, they are trying to come up with ways to make the exact same thing using chemical processes, which typically consume a lot more energy than the produced fuel provides. And it’s generally a dead loss for CO2 mitigation at the moment, given how much power comes from coal and gas.
Since we can see the unfeasibility of converting the aircraft fleet, why can’t we see the unfeasibility of converting the ground fleet? It appears to be the case that the elites can afford an electric car, and therefore expect the peasants to do the same.
Having the technology available to provide the fuel would solve both problems. We would need a lot more nuclear to actually get a CO2 reduction, though.

Only if you have a reliable source of continuous electricity available to recharge the EV. Nuclear, coal, gas, but in their current state of development, not solar or wind.
Which reminds me, if you are looking for a source of investment funds, go to the government “co-investments” in solar, wind, and interconnectors. Drop those and the various subsidies to so-called “renewables”, and there are billions available for something productive, like refining locally produced crude oil.
As requested, but first a couple of points –
1. I didn’t say anything about trusting the State with religion, quite the opposite, I was talking about Homeschool by Christian parents giving children a solid foundation, not only in knowledge but also in wisdom.
2. Some might want to see a child, ‘trained like a dog’, in this clip, but children who grow up with involved parents who lovingly, literally give thanks to God for all their blessings as a matter of course, who make Him their Rock, simply absorb the foundation of what becomes a fun, father & son learning game.

Carting around an extra 600kg over the ICE vehicle. It’s the reason that EV in heavy transport is unviable.
Those batteries are about to get a huge cost increase like everything else.
On another bent. Bananas! Has anyone else noticed they’re going funny colours quickly. Weather?
Electric cars aren’t evil.
Correct, merely stupid. There’s plenty of oil and 150 years of tech development making IC cars the relatively cheap reliable transport they are.
CO2 isn’t a problem but if you think it is, the first thing is to build nukes instead of solar and windmills. Then build lots more nukes and figure out how to extract CO2 from the air and hydrogen from water, add energy and make synthetic petrol and diesel. Carbon neutral.
The “sustainable aviation fuels” thing is just PR bullshit to keep the greenies and politicians off the aviation industry’s back.
Any kind of serious electric aircraft is a non starter. Except for scammers working government grants for a few years before running out of money and shutting down. A common modus operandi in Australia.
It is just possible to build a satisfactory electric self launching sailplane although they have some limitations and out of a world fleet of a couple of hundred several have caught fire and/or threatened to already. They work because the electric propulsion is used for only a few minutes before you turn the power off and use the natural energy in the atmosphere and the high efficiency of the aircraft.
Yep, and we’re supposed to believe our Govt/MSM that these are ‘the bad guys’ –

Petrol is actually a minor cost of running a car unless you live or work in the wrong place.
Insurance, rego, service, depreciation. Do the numbers.
Fare enough yet you did infer some methodical humanized Christian society.

My guess is as good as yours. So no Biggy.
I’m just as concerned but not willing to go all biblical and burn heretics because I disagree.
Driving a 25yo RAV4 certainly kept the depreciation number down. Fuel was always a high % of running costs for me. Approaching 100% some years.

True, the idea only works for naive tech challenged people.
A simple calculation of energy density of avgas against that of the battery, and the quantity required for a meaningful journey, would put pay to any notion of electric air travel. At the moment, and I hazard to guess for the foreseeable future.
Sure, for short distances and small crafts, I can see it happen, but replacing an Airbus? Forget it.

It’s possibly more a testament to Australian motorists not planning, being caught up in a tight supply chain – and wanting it NOW.
I’ve just recently turned over a 3yo Prado (with bull bar etc) for a little more than I paid for it in 2019. I had to wait for five months to get my replacement vehicle, my buyer couldn’t, or wouldn’t wait.
Toyota dealerships are offering used vehicles for a bit more than their current drive away prices.

So you don’t register, insure or maintain it and drive a lot ?
It helped if you see cars as depreciating heaps of junk. I’m not very popular at the ‘Woomba Miata Helldrivers club. What you save on your car you can spend on your motorbike(s).
The US really is a menace now- wars and critical race theory. What a fall from liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
drive a lot
If I had a 25 year old car it would have over 750,000 kms on the clock.
You’re really terrible with numbers. Just horrible.
Not really. Used to use the motorbike 9 times out of 10, maybe once a week to get groceries. I think the insurance lapsed (I should really have had 3rd party). One year I did have to spend a few thousand because it was on the verge of dying.

If you live in the country you can’t avoid big kms. My commute was Port Melbourne to Southbank. I could really have walked (and did once after a big EOFY dinner). Unless the weather was really crappy it was always quicker and easier to take the bike. I never had to worry about a wife, kids or passengers.

The researchers also discovered that changes to glial cells exposed to Pfizer’s mRNA COVID vaccine were similar to chemical changes that occur in cancer cells, according to the aggressiveness of the cancer.
“The observed alterations in biochemical profiles upon incubation with COVID-19 mRNA in the specific organelles of the glial cells are similar to those we observe for brain cancer vs grade of aggressiveness,” the team wrote.
The team also found that mRNA changes to mitochondria can lead to lower immune system response.

JC wants a Mercedes EQC 400.
How much is a Mercedes Eqc 400?
“2022 Mercedes-Benz EQC 400 pricing for Australia
2022 Mercedes-Benz EQC 400 4Matic $ 124,300
2022 Mercedes-Benz EQC 400 4Matic $ 141,300”
Prices off the internet, I’ll probably get a couple one for me and one for the missus. I’m sure it will easily haul around my trailer and tools, around 1500 kg and only need charging once a week like my ute. I guess it will also have a range of at least 900km for my frequent runs to Melbourne and back in a day without sitting around somewhere for a couple of hours to recharge. The ute is a 2011 Ranger now has 435,000 km on it and going strong, cost me $10k five years ago with 260,000km on it.
I’m certain that the electric cars will be better than that, considering the price.
Hey sfw.
Is the Ranger a auto?
All those early auto models had transmission problems. Nearly a $5,000 fix.
Watch her eyebrows! So damned expressive!
Come on man! Her skirt wasnt that short.
Trump has delayed his remarks, knows Australians are watching Outsiders!
Farmer, yep, I hate autos but my missus won’t drive a manual and you never know when she may have to. The auto went at 360,000km had it rebuilt at an auto place in Wodonga with a two year guarantee etc cost $3,500 at the time. He said it probably failed as I was towing in overdrive and that you shouldn’t tow anything heavy in them in O/D, so I just tow with it off. Other than that no problems, except a set of injectors at 400,000, went much better after that. Still even allowing for the repairs it’s been a pretty cheap car for all the work it does.
I’ve just been through this exercise, looking at the possibility of a ‘cheap’ round town EV.
The main problem for me is the ‘entry level’ EV’s start at around $50k but you actually want the $65k ‘extended range’ version.
Assuming the battery pack will need replacing in 8 years – and the vehicle will likely have no market value at that time because newer technology models – it turns into a medium-priced car with a short life to zero terminal value.
Which, even with lower maintenance costs, cruels the EV economics vs a small $35k 6l/100 ICE.
I guess the game will change as soon as a $40k, 500km range small EV hits the market. But it will be disposable consumer goods taken to a new level.

The state’s population grew by more than 57,800 in 12 months, mostly from southern migration
A little more than a year ago, River Streader swapped a Coburg sharehouse for one in Kangaroo Point – returning to their hometown of Brisbane after a decade in Melbourne.
The 30-year-old spent their time in Melbourne working as psychotherapist, tattoo artist and punk musician, while previously voting Greens, independent and “Labor-ish”.
Now Streader is among a pandemic-era wave of interstate migrants arriving in Queensland in numbers not seen in almost two decades.
In 2020, more than 30,000 Australians moved to Queensland, largely from Victoria and New South Wales, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics
,,,,,
“Victoria is more socially progressive generally,” Rimmer says. “Issues around multiculturalism, ethnicity, First Nations issues … [and] policing issues are different from up here.”
They’re subjects that interest Streader, who listed police accountability, challenging racist and sexist norms and the climate emergency as the issues upon affecting the way they vote.
“I care about some sort of action happening, away from just the middle Liberal-Labor hodgepodge,” Streader says.
“Last time, I remember voting for people expanding the safe injecting room, so sometimes it’s things like that.
“Housing will be a big one at the moment.”
Well, if the place was so much more socially progressive, why leave?
Better bang some more pots and pans for the NHS eh?
Shropshire maternity scandal: 300 babies died or left brain-damaged, says report
Five-year investigation to conclude mothers forced to suffer traumatic births because of targets for ‘normal’ births
Three hundred babies died or were left brain-damaged due to inadequate care at an NHS trust, according to reports.
The Sunday Times has reported that a five-year investigation will conclude next week that mothers were denied caesarean sections and forced to suffer traumatic births due to an alleged preoccupation with hitting “normal” birth targets.
The inquiry, which analysed the experiences of 1,500 families at Shrewsbury and Telford hospital trust between 2000 and 2019, found that at least 12 mothers died while giving birth, and some families lost more than one child in separate incidents, the newspaper reported.
OK lets add it up
Service $350 per annum
Insurance $650
Rego $750
Depreciation $4000
Total $5750
Petrol 8000 km @ 8l/100km@$2.00 per liter $1300

Nothing to do with towing. It was a poor design and had to be upgraded in the last few years.
There’s plenty of other auto utes that didn’t shit themselves once they went past 200,000 kms.
That sounds like too much work. I’d rather copy-paste quotes from goodreads.com.
He sounds like he took the broader definition of “education”, where a school is neither sufficient nor necessary for education. That’s why it is more acceptable to suggest education would try to impart (or impose?) values on kids – something you wouldn’t want a government school to do but which ther are probably doing but is difficult to identify. As we were all products of their curriculum, seeing the imposed values is for us like a goldfish trying to see the water – its invisible because its everywhere.
In a Catholic school or a madrassa the imposed values are obvious. In State-endorsed Grade 9 Geography it does not seem so obvious, but the constant messages of “humans suck”, “use ruinables to fight global warming”, “work at home without academic credit if you succeed but certain personal loss if you don’t do it at all”, “collective punishment is an acceptable way to deal with a few troublemakers”, etc, is still lurking there.
Okay, no I don’t have a fully formed theory of quasi-communist State indoctrination of kiddies through school, but examples would be welcomed.
Now throw in the increasing push to a subscription model. You want to actually use that radio? $5/month. Aircon? $10/month. etc. etc.
Pretty clear where it’s heading.
