Monty – You can’t have it both ways. Either you accept the Leftist model of who is a special person or you are cast out of the tribe. Under your rules I am a special person. Under my rules I am not a special person, because the tenets of the Bible are that all people are equal in the sight of God.
It does make for fun trolling of lefties, but apart from skin issues it doesn’t do anything. Which you could say about anyone with melanin enhancement. I prefer the “content of the Character” metric.
Btw, my reference for this figure is the former Chief Scientist, Alan Finkel.
To his credit, he was concerned enough to write a report about it for government
Yeah Bruce, I think the leftie rules are that the Senegal/Benin people have to accept you as one of their own. Which I doubt has happened, unless you sent away a form from the back of a cornflakes packet.
You’re a unique snowflake, Bruce. There you go. Now run along.

It’s strange how access to information has sped up the self-education of the general public to a point where I think it is becoming a problem for the ruling class. Maybe that’s why they’re becoming insane and trying to make the public discourse so insane. Lets talk
Bit more on that Manly “pride” jumper .. reading elsewhere that that is Manly’s 7th jumper issue for the season .. what sort of idiot spends money on numerous “event” jumpers at around $150 a pop ..

Monty:
Brexit’s wording was even vaguer than the Voice referendum. It required the politicians to figure out what was in it.
Brexit meant getting out of the EU – lock, stock and barrel, what’s not to understand about that, either for you or the British pollies.
Apparently that’s the way to conduct referenda in Westminster democracies now, so why not the same system for the Voice?
So you’re happy with open-ended proposals because, as you see it, it’s been done before.
Message to Monty: not a good argument to win on.
So you are saying, Monty, that lightish skinned people who claim to be aboriginal might not be accepted as actual aboriginals despite DNA, family tree and cultural evidence?
That’s very interesting Monty. I don’t think your position would go down well in the left side of politics. Some lefties might even call you racist for such a view.
OK it’s the Babylon Bee but………..

No.

Oh by the way Monty my family diaspora accept me quite well. I’ve been to Jamaica to meet many of them and had the luck to attend a family BBQ in Canada (I was in town for a met conference). A lot of Jamaicans are in Canada. We get on very well. Most of them are a lot duskier than I am, but some aren’t. I met one distant relo who lived on a kibbutz in Israel. My cousin who is a serious policy wonk is very dusky: it was fun because he was a kid when I visited then in Kingston, and we played cricket in their backyard. Cricket is a fine lingua franca.

Vicki,
Did your parents have a Coolgardie Safe?
as a 10 year old visiting a mate’s station mid 50s near Rankin Springs west of West Wyalong,
New meat needed, sheep hung up by front legs, throat slit, blood captured, gutted, skinned and meat put into a Coolgardie safe
Late 1890s Coolgardie safe invented
The Coolgardie safe uses evaporation to keep the food inside cool while protecting it from flies and scavengers. It was invented in the late 1890s on the Western Australian goldfields, an invention credited to a local contractor named Arthur Patrick McCormick. The Coolgardie safe was widely used in country areas well into the 20th century. (Image: Museum Victoria)
The Coolgardie safe was Australia’s precursor to the domestic refrigerator. The appliance consisted of a timber or metal-framed cabinet with open sides covered in hessian fabric. On top of the cabinet, a tank was filled with water and strips of felt trailed down from the tank to the hessian. Through a wicking action, water dripped onto the hessian, keeping it damp.
The safe was generally kept on a verandah or in a breezeway. As the breeze evaporated water from the fabric it absorbed the heat from the surrounding air and kept the contents of the Coolgardie safe cool. The feet of the safe were often placed in another tray of water to deter ants.
This must be one of the most cringe worthy and stupid moments in Australian politics. Race grifters go to grift!

I read up thread about the declining mathematics requirements.
Our Czech Solid Mechanics lecturer used to bemoan our lack of mathematical prowess.
He said at the end of his first year of Mechanical Engineering in Prague, half the class was culled over their mathematical skills, downgraded to draftsman, technicians etc.
I think his first job out of University was doing cam and linkage theoretical design work for looms, manually. He said you had to walk the line between components breaking under the loads and then if you beefed up, breaking due to the increased acceleration loads. You had to do this analysis through the whole drive train.

Longish feel free to scroll.
My 2c worth on the committees set up by the voice all being publicly funded but no oversight. Doc Faustus touched on it and here in Townsville, TIAHS is a prime example of this. Publicly funded, dysfunctional, run for the benefit of a couple of families and with major irregularities in the management its finances. Beattie started probing it but backed off a million miles an hour, Bligh started to go there as well when there were various accounts of possible fraud with the same result as Beattie. Newman’s government didn’t even get going when it surfaced again. The race card was pulled at each stage and the shady dealings continue unabated. I have no confidence there will be any robust oversight of the financial management of any bodies that eventuate from any voice in the racially charged atmosphere we are currently experiencing. They will become voracious and opaque black holes for funding.
Secondly in the Townsville region there is not one person in the suburbs who hasn’t been broken into or had an attempt made by aboriginal teenagers. The place is littered with smashed up or burnt out cars, I noticed a new one this morning near the Holcim Quarry on the Bruce Hwy at Burdell. Still there this arvo but with the police stickers all over. Judges here are impotent and even they are finally also getting caught up but still hand out sentencing well below community expectations. Vigilantes are around I have seen them in action twice in my area but after 2 incidents where innocents were killed last year there has been a crackdown that has tempered their activity. I know people in Mackay and Cairns, apparently similar there as well just not as bad yet. The communities here are dysfunctional, broken and out of control.
Lastly, attitude. Seen it more than once recently and the other day on Charters Towers rd Hermit Park. Aboriginal woman walks into traffic with a young boy and expects them to stop to allow her to cross. Sooner or later one of them is going to get skittled, it has already happened without death a few months back when some youths tried the same trick out in Kirwan at night and a 4WD Landcruiser hospitalised 2 of them. There is them and us attitude but the more worrying thing is there is now a growing hatred of anyone not aboriginal as described above that I am also starting to see emerge.
There are a lot of good hard working people of Indig heritage out there and some of the biggest critics are these people. I have heard it, problem is we are listening amplified through the media, race bating rabble rousers with very little heritage like Thorpe controlling the narrative. The message seems to have moved from reconciliation to kneel and kiss the ring. If there is a reset we need it is the return to pragmatism, bad things happened but the modern generation bears no responsibility for those sins and we Europeans are here with as much right to the place as anyone of the previous waves of migration. My lineage goes back over 200 years that I know of. I think Paul Hogan’s analogy in Crocodile Dundee sums it all with the stupidity of winding ourselves in knots about “2 fleas fighting over the dog they are living on.”

Back in 1949 (the first federal election I remember) Robert Menzies won with a full Protestant party bar one.
The Democratic Labor Party enabled Menzies to scrape in by a single seat in 1961 through preferences. I first voted in 1961 as you had to be 21 in those day to be able to vote so I do remember it well.
The second time I was able to vote at a federal election, State aid for Catholic schooling, opposed by Labor was to prove one of the decisive contributors to the increase in Menzies’s majority in 1963. I was at that time still a Protestant.

Hey Rabz, the Sporty Beamer went beautifully up to Coffs to a resort for last nite and then sped into the Sunshine Coast for tonite, with radio our only musical show. My Android phone doesn’t fit into the provided phone slot so Hairy’s iphone has to be primed with music for the digital system to accept it. Duzzn matta anyway as neither of us has any tunes on these devices. I will get my son or nineteen year-old grandson to show me what to do to load up some music choices including transferring some fave CD’s to the iphone and working out if there is a way to connect my Android up to the Beamer system as well. There must be – bluetooth or something – as there is a USB port available.
Alternatively, I was threatening to Hairy on the way up to go to JB HiFi and purchase some miniature version of a battery boogie box so’s I could simply play my CD’s in the car without any new tech wizardry. He laughed of course, said I was a luddite and I said it was better than being too lazy to bother doing sorting out your iphone and leaving us to whatever the ABC served up on Classic FM.
Actually, as we drove into Coffs through the darkening bushland they’d served up Rachmaninoff’s Second Piano Concerto, full of forboding and mystery and longings, like dark water swirling under moonlight, so I didn’t mind too much. Tonight we’re on Bribie Island t in an apartment oversupplied with two bedrooms plus a his-and-hers bathroom as well as an ensuite, overlooking a Sound of calm water with an occasional painterly anchored boat; on Wednesday we visit friends here and then hit the resort high life in Mooloolabah before going to Brisbane on Saturday to see our delightful grandchildren. Will try local radio for toons as we continue to hit the road in Queensland. ps. Hairy forgot his swimmers and his tablets, so it’s not just me. He has to see a doc here to get new scripts and then buy some new speedos.

Um Jason Clare posturing again? — Remembering that the Commonwealth government does not own one school or employ one teacher — but talk is cheap however, what the Teachers’ Union will have to say on this won’t be:
I don’t know if this article by Janet Albrechtsen was posted over the weekend but here it is apologies if it was I haven’t been able to keep up:
The comments on Janet Albrechtsen’s article are not supportive of the woke foke: I think this comment sums up the rag-headed La Scimmia very well:
As someone wrote in this paper a while ago, FitzSimons realised long ago that he was never going to be the brightest one in the room. So he decided to be the loudest. Not having the skills to refute an opposing argument, he resorts to sneering, hectoring, and belittling. He personifies the intolerance he would have us believe he abhors.
So many issues with this, and it is obvious that they still think money will fix it
1. Only 2% have gone for higher registration … Reason for a mere 10k a year, you need to pay between 600 and 900 up front to have a portfolio assessed. It takes 2 years to put the portfolio together and you need to get the opportunity to demonstrate the higher level stuff so you can include it. Most teachers I know just couldn’t be bothered trying to fit it all in…either your home life suffers or your teaching does.
2. How will they identify the “best”? Those who can talk the talk(see point 1)?
3. Every school has a Head Teacher Teaching and Learning whose job it is to mentor advise etc etc
4. The reference to Qld and the National Curriculum. Wtf? We have a year and a half to amend programs before rolling out the curriculum(some subject areas 2 and a half). If 2 people working for a day per unit/subject/year level can’t sort it out, and another day for changing resources…
5. Don’t see how 200 admin staff will make a difference. They are not going to be able to relieve anything of what my admin load was when I taught in NSW, and that 200 is less than 1 per school, let alone one per high school or primary school.
6. Teaching has become unattractive/high burn out because of the behaviour of the kids. There are no effective discipline strategies that work without the cooperation of parents, and most parents will side with the kids against the teacher. The focus is on pushing them through. In NSW at least it takes 4 hours of. Deputy’s time to suspend a kid, and another 2 hours to process them back in. In Qld thanks to the human rights Act it is very very difficult to suspend a child.
Further to this think of the 11-16 year old kids who break into people’s houses and steal cars and joyride, not your nice middle class children and grandchildren.
Ironically, it can be equally applied to the opposite side of the argument.
Mater wanted to know: “What the hell is wrong with you blokes [the board] that you don’t get it? You are prepared to trash the entire Manly season on this issue alone? … For what? … Can we have a statement from the board, to make clear your views, so we can all understand?”
See how this works?
Yeah Tom. Jesus. People have to go to work.
Talk about insensitive. Next time be quicker with your free stuff, will you?
On the subject of free stuff, Knight portrayed Lidia Thorpe particularly well.

Although to my mind, there’s no such thing as ‘joyriding’. It’s the wilful theft and destruction of what is, for most people, the second most expensive thing they will ever buy.
It can and does put people’s jobs at risk. They can’t get their kids to school. They can’t get to the doctor. They can’t get to the shops. It takes their mobility away, and thus their quality of life.
Very few people have public transport options within walking distance, and they shouldn’t have to because a) they’ve busted arse to buy wheels in the first place, and b) the filthy junior scrotes who do this have yet to work out that it is difficult to steal cars with two broken thumbs.

“FitzSimons “
The problem I have with the grotesque buffoon FitzSimian and his equally grotesque cane toad wife is that despite years of lies and all round buffoonery, neither of them have ever suffered any financial or professional opprobrium. In other words, they get away with it. Both are true representatives of the progressive elites in this country. Both are narcissists yet I could forgive them for this if either of them had a smidgen of talent however both are singularly untalented parasites. For them, it is always, “do as I say, not as I do”. For them it is always, “rules for thee but not for me”, and on and on the hypocrisy and double standards go. Last week FitzSimian was caught out yet again, his tirades against the Christian Manly Seven men as compared to his praise earlier this year of the Muslim Haneen Zreika woman when she refused to wear the “Pride jersey”. This is what FitzSimian said about Haneen, “she’s quietly declining to use her platform to promote a belief she’s not comfortable with“. My God, no such kind words for the Manly Seven. Pirate Man is an unashamed anti-Christian bigot. No wonder he and she mock, scorn and laugh at the rest of us.
I’m still waiting for Mrs FitzSimian to be charged. Last month, the narcissist, in order to gloat, prejudiced a looming rape trial which resulted in that trial being delayed….again. If that had been you or me, or a conservative media name such as Tim Blair, Andrew Bolt, Paul Murray, Peta Credlin, Alan Jones, Chris Kenny or some other, I can guarantee you that charges would have already been laid.

Yesterday, having viewed the juvenile stunt by the adolescent Thorpe* as well as the hectoring shouts by that utterly grotesque and hypocritical lard-arse member for Kooyong and what concerns me is not them per se, it is the fact that there are people out there who vote for them. I truly hope the voters of Kooyong are already having buyer’s remorse.
* Further to Thorpe, having seen her stunt yesterday in the senate, I thought of my grandparents and other long gone relatives and ancestors, some who fought for this country in World War I and II (my grandfather and great-grandfather), ALL who helped build this country and I became rather maudlin, because the reality is that this is Australia in 2022. It isn’t a pretty picture.

Captain shared the opinion that Ms Lydia should experience in full her preferred culture and go through the initiation experience of pubescent girls, of being gang r*ped after some helpful rough surgical intervention, being kindly ‘loaned’ to a visitor over night or even sent out to placate the warband that approached which also meant being gang r*ped. Then when older and useless, and a drain on the food supply, left behind to die.
He also mentioned ant hills … and other things but that will do.
Then she could also spend a few months in Yuendumu or Wadeye in an over crowded house with no lockable doors and her big mouth and see how she gets on. Lols, Big Brother in Black, it would be terrifying TV.

According to the woman, her son is physically and sexually mature, yet socially incapable of naturally getting a girlfriend. Identifying as bisexual with a preference for women, the man also was open with his mother on the sex he wanted to experience, and the type of pornography he enjoys. The mother commended him for his sexual openness, citing fears of her son becoming an “incel” due to sexual repression.

Today I’ve been alerted to a fellow who was banned for a few years from being a company director for not insignificant breaches of the corps act who is now the proud owner of an “NDIS consultancy”.

I don’t think Monty is quite over his bout of covid.
His comments yesterday was pretty incoherent.
Only a fevered mind could think a voice bureaucracy is the final solution to Aboriginal disadvantage.

There used to be a certain reverence for doctors.
And village schoolmasters:
How often have we seen that – even when bested in argument lefties go on and on and on, hoping to win by attrition. They have the feeling that regardless of merit, the last person talking is the winner.
Anyway, just musing out loud: most doctors, (GP’s actually) although trained in a scientific discipline, do not actually do science. When confronted by something they can’t explain they refer refer patients to specialists. Isn’t it similar to a car mechanic using a suite techniques and tools to diagnose a problem, and to decide upon a remedy.
Don’t get me wrong. This is not to belittle the importance of their work or the effort required to keep up with developments, just that it is not as scientific as people have got used to assuming. These GP’s would not be able to demonstrate or prove the science they rely upon, and could not come up with something new.
I suspect there are (low level at least) specialists in the same boat.
I see that Dr Monique Ryan (for a Ryan she is) is a neurologist – which is certainly a complicated study – and doubtless uses lots of machines and measures abstruse volumes and ratios and voltages all of which, when put together in an established way, leads to a single conclusion the same way that armed with particular latitude and longitude you can arrive at a single landmark. You don’t need to be a cartographer. Or a scientist.
The only reason this has pressed itself upon me is that we keep hearing from doctors on all matter of topics, and yet so often what they utter the most ineffable unscientific nonsense.
Dr Monique is no doubt a warmy, and would look down her nose with disdain at anyone pointing out the problems with the theory if they did not possess what she thought at least was a higher qualification, and thinks that she is rightly in the company of scientific giants when she agrees with the reports from the Klimate Kiddies at the UN.
And, of course, on Covid there is no way she will listen to anyone raising the many failed predictions and irreconcilable divergences between ‘da science’ Covid and reality Covid.
She is a doctor. Doesn’t matter what you say, she is a doctor. She is right by definition.

Comment, from the Oz, regarding Lidia Thorpe’s performance in the Senate.
Those girls in the locker room should have walked out and left him to swim by himself.
Ahaha! Thanks for the memories. I’d forgotten that show and its great theme song.
I’m in Amsterdam in four weeks time. I might even report on what I see there – staying just off Dam square. Hopefully some big, burly farmers walking over a few little stick-bashy girly cops.
A) If you are referring to the house as typically your most expensive purchase, with a car second, you forgot one thing – the correct order is:
1) Government (taxes are generally higher than mortgage costs
2) House
3) Car

Bern, it helps to remember that Australia has cured the need for accountability and justice by legalising corruption.
And no-one ever asks questions about corruption because that used to be the media’s job.
Selective. Exhibit A: John Barilaro

At first slowly, then all at once.

Always get a second opinion.
Why chemically? One snip would do it.
After which they can deport them. The accused are reportedly “migrants” engaged in illegal scavenging for gold in closed mines.
That was meant to read: the media are selective.
They are going after Barilaro, not because he’s corrupt, it’s because they can hook sitting conservatives into the net if they try hard enough.
It doesn’t matter if they’re guilty or not, any smear will do.
They got another one yesterday for “bullying”. Not a peep about Wong, Gallagher and Keneally and their antics.
But it’s different when they do it.
No one (apart from normal, everyday, law abiding citizens) fears the fourth estate any more – the object is to get them onside, and once onside there they stay.
Which simply means they are as corrupt as the people they “expose”.
This will be more attractive to people who want the money than to those who want to actually teach.
A crappy curriculum, all-pervading political conditioning, no discipline, lazy hostile parents who think sending their little rat-faced urchin to school everyday means said urchin should be a ‘straight’ A student with no fuss on their part, a minefield of race and religious and gender identities to be threaded through – and with more mines laid every time the ABC decides there are new injustices to champion, and the fear (much more so for males) that just one of your charges is malignant enough to point at you and say you touched them and it made them uncomfortable – career gone, possible charges laid, and everyone looking at you funny for the rest of your life.
Yup – this all adds up to ‘not enough money’.
Important week for the world this week.

would a warning letter to the NDIA do any good do you think?
Hasn’t she already admitted she doesn’t believe the parliament has a right to exist and she is only there to “infiltrate” the colonial project?
If only we had recall elections.
In the meantime, her showboating at least serves the purpose of alerting the general public to the agenda afoot to divude the nation by “race.”
I think she affirmed.
Wasn’t it an offense, punishable by decapitation on the nearest hill, to mock either of Their Majesties, while taking the Oath to Parliament? Pretty sure I read that somewhere?

Re Doctors, the way the system operates is designed to make them a living. My left knee is a bit dodgy, doesn’t hurt but can’t take a lot of weight, it just slowly folds. I can’t go straight to a knee specialist. First I have to see the GP at $80 a pop here, I do get something back but not much. The GP will push and prod and ask a few questions, if I’m lucky he will send me for a scan straight away, if not he will insist that I use some medicine that will not do anything and come back in two weeks. Either way I’ll end up getting a scan eventually, when the scan results come back I’ll pay another $80 for him to give me a referral to a specialist. It’s crap but there’s no way to short circuit the system.
Haven’t seen a Dr since wuflu began except when I ended up in hospital after the second jab with terrible flu like symptoms, and I don’t want to see one now. Looks like I’ll be forced to sometime this year to see about the knee.
Re the hospital, I was pretty crook, went to the local emergency twice, they made me sit in the street until they tested me, the test was negative so they let me in. I had two more visits and all they did was test me for wuflu, when it was negative they just sent me home and said take panadol, even though I was so weak could barely walk 10 metres. Bunch of useless pricks, took me weeks to recover.
Puh-lease.
Alerting the NDIS to anything dodgy is a fools errand.
The last thing a taxpayer funded body wants to know is something in their universe isn’t up to scratch.
Otoh, if GPs didn’t act as the gateway to specialists the latter’s rooms would be clogged up with hypochondriacs and people with genuine issues would be waiting even longer to see one.

It wouldn’t take much effort for the NDIA to uncover such.
Just head down to the local library, for starters, and see their clients abandoned by their “carers”.
Amazing how the US finds these durka durka terrorists just before an election.

Lawyers, engineers and IT experts would be parachuted into classrooms to address crippling staff shortages under radical reforms that include pay rises of up to 40 per cent for the very best teachers.
The federal government’s Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership has laid out a blueprint for fixing the teacher shortage by recruiting university-educated workers to earn while they learn on the job to teach school students.
The plan includes a six to 12-month “paid internship’’ for career-changers to earn cash while upgrading their credentials with a two-year masters degree in education.
Sounds like what was done in WA 1969 -1970. Had an engineer mate who did that and knew a chick who was a psychologist who changed to teaching.
Oh, and as for Adam Bandt “Always was, Always will be” -when G.S.T. is raised to 15% to pay the cost of reparations, will you still say the same?

Europe’s looming coal crisis
A shortfall of the fuel would be particularly painful for Poland and Germany.
Move over gas — there’s a new energy shortage in town.
As Europe faces its worst energy crunch in decades amid the war in Ukraine, national capitals have been scrambling to shore up their gas reserves ahead of the winter. But another fuel could also soon be in short supply: coal.
Although the highly polluting fuel has earned pariah status as the EU looks to slash emissions, consumption is on the rise as a number of countries, including Austria and the Netherlands, either switch old coal-fired plants back on or boost existing capacity to save on gas.
The problem is that the EU will soon be deprived of its biggest supplier: The bloc slapped sanctions on Russian coal in April, forbidding further imports starting August 10.
That means the 2 million tons of coal it is set to receive from Russia this month will be the last such shipment, said Alex Thackrah, a senior coal analyst at the market intelligence firm Argus Media.
Add to that serious logistical challenges in sourcing and transporting the fuel from elsewhere, and “it’s certainly going to be a challenge to get enough coal this winter,” he said.
Indonesia, South Africa and Colombia are all potential suppliers, but EU countries will face “extremely high prices” due to the particularly high-calorific type of coal normally used across the bloc, according to Thackrah. Coal prices on the API2 Rotterdam hub, a European benchmark, hit $380 per ton last week, already a more than fourfold increase on this time last year.
The EU will also face “stiff competition” from players such as India and South Korea, which have existing coal supply agreements with many of these countries, said Mark Nugent, an analyst at the shipbroker Braemar.
Logistical issues risk complicating matters further.

Correct.
Some people love a visit to a specialist because they are … well … special.
And their ‘very rare’ complaint becomes fodder to bore dinner party companions with.
I get it for first off referrals.
However, it is a pain when the specialist himself/herself requests a regular review ad infinitum, but the GP is reluctant to issue a single lifetime referral.
But I don’t totally blame the GPs. Medicare seems to jump on “unnecessary referrals” from what I can gather.

Coal use likely to set new 8 billion ton record this year (and next year too)
How’s that transition going then?
The IEA reports that the stranded dead asset is probably about to hit an all time record high:
For 2022 as a whole, we expect global coal demand to increase by 0.7% from 2021 to about 8 billion tonnes. This would match its all-time peak reached in 2013…
Worldwide coal consumption in 2021 rebounded by 5.8% to 7 947 million tonnes (Mt), according to our data, as the global economy recovered from the initial shock of the Covid pandemic and higher natural gas prices drove a shift towards coal-fired power generation.
Current coal price tonight: $407.90. Also almost a record. So we have highest volume at the highest price, and people want you to believe that no one wants coal.
