I have a particular loathing for anyone who throws things from a bridge. I don’t care if it’s a peanut. They deserve a hiding.
I mentioned concrete and reo in my earlier comment. In the early nineties, scores of young scum thought it was funny to throw rocks and full cans from bridges over roads. The nastiest of these resulted in the death of a truckdriver. The filthy scum lobbed a chunk of concrete with reo spikes sticking out of it from a bridge. It smashed through the windscreen and ripped through his chest almost ripping out his heart. He was dead before the truck smashed its way off the road. Typically, despite Australia wide outrage, they did barely any time.
Yes Pogria- I always think of Mark Evans when heading out of Sydney on the Hume.

Cudos to the young ladies who outed his lousy behavior.
What he did has now been viewed 13 million times on social media, if he hadn’t been outed he would have done this again in his quest for “clicks” and “likes” on social media.
Fvk him and his whiny arse.
miltonf,
thanks for giving us his name. I hadn’t looked for the story as I haven’t forgotten what happened at the time. I am sorry I had forgotten his name. I was driving along Cowpasture road towards Wetherill Park late one night and someone threw a rock at my car from the side of the road. It made a large dent in the roof. Scared the crap out of me but I didn’t stop to check for damage until I made it to work.
Further to pranks, a few weeks ago in Victoria a fourteen-year-old boy pushed an elderly fisherman off a pier late at night. The fisherman was unable to swim.
The fourteen-year old boy and his mates thought what they did was a hoot. They ran off laughing, fortunately onlookers were able to rescue the elderly man.
Sorry but there’s nothing ‘funny’ about pranks.

Yep.
The risk with the Future Fund with the Combet appointment isn’t the investment decisions.
The board have never gotten in the way of the CIO or investment committee previously & the chair is just one vote.
This has been through multiple internal restructures, internalisations of mandates, externalisations of mandates, lock stock the lot.
The real risk is Combet gives cover to Albo to grab himself a “dividend”.
Because of the explosion in public servant packages the event horizon where the fund in unencumbered keeps getting pushed out.
A “dividend” would mean the FF would be underfunded to the extent the liabilities would have to be accounted for in the federal budget.
Ultimately there has to be public sector pension reform where regardless of the size of the final package when someone retires, there’s no reason for a public servant to be dragging in more than 100k per year in retirement.
What’s the point of cheap instant translation when nobody can afford to freely speak?

I’ve just finished reading Bernard Cornwell’s non-fictional ‘Waterloo.’ While it features practically the same content as the 6, 572* books on the same battle that have preceded it, one small nugget of information mentioned in passing among the last few pages has remained with me.
Apparently, the commanding officer of the British 23rd Dragoons, John Dawson, the 2nd Earl of Portarlington, was late arriving for the beginning of the battle on Mont St. Jean on the 18th, due, it is alleged, to having been distracted by a romantic dalliance the previous night in Brussels. While he eventually arrived – the time of arrival is not mentioned – and attached himself to an Hussars Regiment, charging with them at one point, the absence from his command in battle was seen as such a disgrace, that in the years following (he survived the battle itself), his fall from grace included not only resigning his commission, but a social disappearance that concluded with his death in an unnamed London slum.
Whether this story is apocryphal or not, I’m yet to research, but it reminded me of the state of post-modern ‘Western’ cultural critique, whereupon the stereotyped Caucasian male prior to the 20th Century is depicted as almost 100% landed gentry, flush with rights and privileges, and neither responsibilities nor social or economic consequences to temper the ‘patriarchal violence.’
The fact that the vast percentage of those slaughtered at Waterloo/Mont St. Jean/La Belle Alliance (as the British, French and Prussians labelled the sequence of events, respectively) were likely men whom, in their home countries, eked out a day-to-day existence, with little in the way of resources or perceived social value, seems never to deter the misrepresentation I mentioned above.
That only males were considered disposable in their tens of thousands, indicates that they – including the higher ranked individuals, whom, though they received greater mention in the historical record, were still regarded as acceptable losses for society’s larger cause – had far less value than is usually now assumed.
* Some dramatic license may have been used with this figure.
Some pranks can be funny but dangerous pranks are something else. Unfortunately, nothing will be done. We no longer have those with the will or intestinal fortitude to administer necessary justice.
To be clear, Costello proposing & arranging taxpayer funding the Future Fund is the extent he should receive credit.
The board & chairs since inception have really done nothing despite what they & their boosters in the media would have you believe.
It’s all done to the CIO’s & investment committee.
Their asset allocation decisions since the final sale of Telstra has been top notch, but that will be tested over the coming years as they have so much in unlisted assets.
Similar to CBUS which owns so much office property but hasn’t seemed to have gotten around to revaluing their assets.
I’m sure they’ll get around to it, lol.

After you’ve spent the better part of 70 years running a delinquent system. It takes time to see progress. To transition away from communism and toward a semi-market economy can’t happen overnight.
100%. And in truth, it probably took a decade for the ‘new shoots’ to emerge. That first decade was a terrible period where those with money and political access screwed the State and the people. It was a dreadful time and a profound shock for those who previously lived under the USSR. There was a very real possibility of the Russian Federation breaking apart, beyond what had already happened, in the first few years.
The second decade (~2000 to 2010) Putin came to power and ‘steadied the ship’. Obviously not everyone is a fan of Putin (especially lately) but there is no doubt that under his stewardship, Russia consolidated. We should remember that Russia is a vast country (2.5 x Australia) with a relatively small population (~150m).
In the third decade and more, that initial consolidation was further built upon. Is it perfect? Nope. Would you and I have done some things differently? Yep. But somehow, despite everything, Russia has emerged from the rubble of the early 1990s and many cities and regions are virtually indistinguishable from those in the west in terms of industry, living conditions and social practices.

Was the episode, from “Sharpe’s Waterloo”, about the fattest man in the Prussian Army, given the task of conveying the news of Napoleons advance, truth or fiction?
Arrogance or dementia? If it’s arrogance then it serves him right, the young thugs don’t care if he was easy on them when hearing their case(s).

This is going to be fun.
Honest Reporting.
I don’t normally like or frequent Twatter/X, but this is an interesting one which, a little down the page, states that 92% of Gaza’s water had been sourced from an aquifer beneath it. Therefore, the [admittedly old now] claims that Israel was the source of all water, and has shut all access off, is – if this info is correct, which I cannot vouch for – B.S.
That’s a porn genre Kez.
Sorry, last one:
Roughly one third down this page is a post that intimates a released Palestinians was starved while in Israeli custody. According tohttps://twitter.com/HonestReporting however, the man has stomach cancer, which explains his physical appearance.
Again, I’m not in a position to declare any information authentic or otherwise, but if the above is correct, this is a fascinating factoid to keep in one’s mind when trying to debate with the irrational (which is normally pointless, admittedly).
There was a case at home recently about a YouTube nuffy called Jonny Somalia, he would be out and about usually in Tokyo or Nagasaki being a dick on trains, making threats to commuters and so on.
He eventually made 2 mistakes, the first was going onto a construction site in ?Tokyo and causing trouble dressed in black wearing a mask, (trespass on a workplace is kinda frowned upon)
The second was when he targeted a young female Japanese Vlogger who talks about food and fashion that sort of thing. She videoed him and people went nuts, him and his camera guy got punched up by an American expat who owned a restaurant, (i think it was in Osaka).
Eventually gets arrested and has found out Japanese law is not kind to expats, the police can hold you for 30 days (i think, it could be 90 days) but they can apply to the courts to have this extended, this can go on for years or until a person confesses their guilt, hence the 90% conviction rate for expat crime.

This is one of many reasons why I refer to the media as the Filth Filter. Not because it filters OUT the filth, but because itself is the filth, the disease, the excrement, through which information is squeezed before it reaches an audience.
I was livid with the FilthFilter after the covidiocy (along with all of government, and practically every community organisation you can think of), but the degree to which the F.F. has not only enabled and encouraged, but CELEBRATED what happened to Israel … no words. No words suffice. May the faded shadow of what once passed for the fragments of their rented souls be consumed by demons and excreted into into the wine glass of their colleagues.

James Cook University accused of ‘doing nothing’ in response to bully claim
By SARAH ELKS
SENIOR REPORTER
7:10PM JANUARY 30, 2024
A senior academic staffer has accused James Cook University of “basically doing nothing” after she complained that the head of the Indigenous Education and Research Centre had allegedly threatened to “spear” her if she didn’t increase enrolment.
The woman alleges Martin Nakata, the Townsville-based deputy vice-chancellor of Indigenous Education and Strategy, made the threat in front of staff and a student three times in two days, first on November 16 at a whole-department training day.
In a complaint to James Cook University’s human resources department and WorkCover Queensland, the woman said Professor Nakata had told her she needed to increase Indigenous enrolment from 670 to 1000, a target she felt was unrealistic.
“He’s a Torres Strait Islander man and because of that and because we’re the Indigenous centre, we have things on our walls, and one of the things is the spear,” she told The Australian.
“He points to the spear and says if you don’t reach that target, I’m going to take that spear off the wall and I’m going to spear (woman’s name).
“On the Friday he repeated the same comment, and later that day he repeated the same thing in front of a student.
“It flabbergasted me. Everybody felt very uncomfortable … they sat there in silence, I think in shock.
“I felt totally humiliated, and I was also quite dumbfounded.”
The Australian asked Professor Nakata for a response.
He did not comment but a JCU spokesman said: “(The) university is aware of the alleged incident. All such allegations are taken seriously and handled in accordance with the university’s policies and procedures.”
The woman said she had worked with Professor Nakata for more than five years and they had previously had a good working relationship.
She said she tried to resolve the matter unofficially, by emailing Professor Nakata and telling him she “respectfully requested him” to stop making the comments.
“He said he was sorry and it was just a joke,” she said.
The woman said she had accepted his apology and was keen to work together as normal, but her relationship with him had deteriorated to the point where he did not speak to her. “On a normal day I’d have to speak to him half a dozen times, so that means I can’t do my job,” she said.
The woman said she felt bullied, and made a complaint to JCU’s human relations department on December 3, after she had been contacted about the alleged incident by The Cairns Post.
She then made a claim to WorkCover.
“I went to HR and they’ve basically done nothing,” she said.
“He’s a very respected Indigenous academic and he’s very high-profile and I think they don’t know what to do.
“If it was somebody at a lower level, they would have been suspended or sacked. They are trying to work out how to make me want to go away.”
The JCU spokesman said: “JCU has endeavoured to meet with the complainant but scheduled meetings have had to be postponed due to respective leave commitments.”
The woman has been on stress leave and annual leave.
Professor Nakata is the first Torres Strait Islander to graduate with a PhD in Australia and his decades-long research career has focused on Australian Indigenous education.
He was awarded the Member of the Order of Australia in 2020.

But he has a lot of baggage to discard.

Though it can also be translated (dependent upon vowel pronunciation) as ‘plumber’ or ‘sole carer of elderly grandparents.’

There is no such thing as a “moderate” Muslim and Dib’s loathing for Israel is well known.

True, but Littleproud doesn’t have nearly the baggage that the Beetroot has.
Very cool.
Zulu,
thank you very much for the biography of Melanie Safka. I posted that she had died. I never knew anything about her. Her songs enriched my childhood but, as I grew up, I listened to others. Information about singers you loved was not all that easy to come by unless you had the coin to buy magazines. Late seventies I was into headbanger music!

Marty looks as though he wouldn’t have a good root in him let alone be capable of spearing some sheilas.
His efforts have been highly (measurably) productive then?
Downvoted by a Frenchman. What a pity.
At least Colonel Sharpe got to see Napoleon.
Who is Hyacinth? If the commentator who used this name of Hyacinth is trying to traduce Lizzie, let me say this, Lizzie is nothing like Hyacinth.
I happen to know a lot of people here personally. Lizzie, Rabz, Dragnet, Rafe, Jupes and his wife, Gilas, Tinta, Vicki and others. They, like me, can all attest to the real Lizzie, a Lizzie who is nothing like the character ‘Hyacinth’. We value her friendship, and we appreciate her kindness, decency and formidable intelligence.
Lizzie has a good sense of humour, and she can laugh at herself but even she isn’t immune to getting depressed and feeling down when people who don’t know her constantly and obsessively traduce and ridicule her.
Further to my post towards the top of the page regarding a British officer at Waterloo, that esteemed source of all integrity – wakipedia – slightly contradicts Cornwell’s more florid prose.
John Dawson did in fact resign his commission following Waterloo/Mont St. Jean (I find the French title to be more geographically correct), however he was not as socially disgraced as novelist intimated, as he became an aide-de-camp to King George IV. He died at the age of 64 in 1845, at ‘his residence’ in Kennginton Road, London.
Pfff.
That’s the last time I trust a novelist!

I’m not sure if I made the correct interpretation, but I read just recently that in the U.S., there has been a move to rewrite patient consent laws if it is perceived that the ‘greater good’ (my paraphrasing) will be served by not informing the patient of possible negative side effects.
Maybe it was someone here who posted that link? Indolent perhaps?
One of the books by David Southwell, Secrets and Lies or Conspiracy Files, has a rather strange and interesting insight to Cary Grant on LSD.
He saw himself as a giant phallic rocket as god’s gift to women, it launched, then he defecated until he was that defecation and he saw himself as a phoney and had an ego death.

However, I did see an ad on the picture wireless this morning about a chap with a man bun asserting that he was an ‘alpha male’.

Two – that this gentleman must be German.

I didn’t think he was part of an LSD experiment.
It was more aggressive gaslighting style interviewing over extended periods I thought.
‘Can someone put GMH back on the track?’
Shhh. He’s eating his pudding.
Both LSD micro-dosing and an exorcism. LSD will help when it’s tied up to the bed and the priest starts spraying holy water over it. I wish I could watch.
On people throwing things of bridges etc at vehicles. They need to serve jail time.
When I lived in WA in the 70’s I was driving back from the Kwinana area around 8pm . As I passed a cutting in the road a rock was thrown at my car.
It hit the bonnet leaving a dent and then bounced over the roof.
I was ropeable, it could have easily gone through the windscreen.
Screeched to a stop, grabbed a tire iron and went after the bastards.
By the time I got to the top of the cutting the perpetrators were long gone so all I could do was profanely curse long and loud in their general direction.
When I got back to the car my passenger had the interior light on and was thumbing through the street directory.
I said ‘WTF are you doing?’
She answered ‘Looking for the shortest way to the hospital’
I said ‘For them, fcuk them!’
She said ‘No, for you!’
We still have some left over Christmas pudding. It’s delicious with thickened cream. I allow myself one dessert a week.
Melanie Safka. Best version of “Ruby Tuesday” ever.
Apropos of nothing.
I may have mentioned this thought previously, but it just popped back into my head again: As electrickery becomes more expensive in a domestic sense, will we see a greater rise in accidents in the home requiring hospitalisation, particularly among the elderly?
Rocks, bottles, other assorted stuff? The woman living next to parents had a terrible marriage. She through herself over a highway walk bridge, was hit by a car and survived. Survived not by much though. You really would have to be an arsehole to do that to a poor driver.
I’m just finishing my celebration of Australia Day. Opened the last bottle of Taitinger. I stuck to Australian wines for most of it, but I went froggy at the end.
I’m very glad I’m Australian. This is a great country, spoilt only by politicians, bureaucrats and bushflies. Otherwise it would be paradise, and someone would come along and steal it.
Wonder what the night will bring in the ME.
khaled dib story. Seems to know all the right people.
Wonder what the night will bring in the ME.
I always try and be optimistic, but really is there any hope for the human race?
A youtube account is claiming the IDF has ‘tracked down’ Yahya Sinwar, but I can find no mention of it on the IDF’s Youtube page.
Can someone with access to X check please?
It’s quite possibly just click bait, but you never know.
Reading that Khalid Dib story, someone dumped his body, dead or dying at a hospital without even ringing the hospital to say it was there, so family and friends thought they should riot at the hospital.
Non of the famous Dibs, Jihad or his two boxer brothers mention the names of their other brothers on their wiki parents.
Must be shy.
“A catastrophic day!” Words fail me, they honestly vooking do!
I’m unsure of the date of this, but as of creation, 40 Israeli children were being held hostage in Gaza. This YouTube IDF short features the names and ages of these children.
My Great Grandaddy x4 (mum’s side) served in the British army from 1810 thru 1817 .. fought at Quatre Bras (Waterloo) and was awarded the Waterloo Medal ..
Having seen your GGGG Grandfathers information I checked the discharge papers of my GGG Grandfather, fathers side (which I have a framed copy of) who also fought at Waterloo and received the Waterloo Medal in 1815. He was in the 1st Battalian, 91st Regiment of Foot, Commanded by Lt General Duncan Campbell.
Our downdicker certainly dislikes any critical mention of Gaza and h@m@s.
What else forms part of the pattern?
(Of course, I may be mistaken in thinking there is only one dd).
another relative?
Two children still held hostage one year old Kfir and his four year old brother Ariel.
One of the women is a child according to Gaza definition (eighteen) but didn’t qualify for release as she was an IDF member.
I’m on the Corsica ferry a five hour cruise, not worth getting a cabin so I got a €12 reclining chair, had a peek in there, looks like I’ll be on my onesome so up with the hoi polloi til I’m sick of sick of the kitchen chair.
Television is telling French taxi drivers are this week’s protesters.
Thanks for clarifying that, Rosie. For a 1 year old & a 4 year old to remain hostage without international outrage is mind-blowing. With adults as bargaining chips, there can be no reason to keep the toddlers. Yet much of the planet ascribes a ‘good faith’ to an organisation which has objectively shown no such moral fortitude.
Oh, and to my downdicker/s: I’m tempted to write ‘Get in the ring, mofos’ but then that’s something you’d never risk, is it? But I perversely also need to give you credit for that; for not getting in the ring with an unknown opponent. What did you do before the internet? Whose animals did you torture? What a waste of pixels. *Sigh*
If that does happen and by any slim chance she succeeds, it won’t be “God bless America”, but rather “God help America”.

New OT up.
Michelle and Barack Obama are quietly planning a shock bid for her to become president, forcing Joe Biden out, rumours claim
I reckon that is a lay down misere… and because the US is fundamentally stupid she has a better than even chance of winning.
An indignant late-night tantrum gets me only 3 miserable downdicks. Pffft. What a disappointment. Obviously I’m yet to master the craft!
Serious question:
What date would be the latest a U.S. pres candidate could nominate?
Aaargh! Tis still the ye olde fred!
“Has anyone used Microsoft Office 2021?
Is it of any use, and is it loaded down with crap I’d never use?”
Yes, yes and yes.
Try installing OpenOffice.org – it’s the free version.
Does word processor, spreadsheet and presentation just fine.
Saves in MS Office compatible formats – even more flexible in that regard than MS Office itself, as it can “back port” to older versions.
“Or are Dibs a dime a dozen in Sydney?”
About as common a name as Mohammad.

The non use of lights at night time has certainly become a worry. I don’t have the stats for elderly falls, but wouldn’t be surprised at a rise.
Bruce in WA
I think the plan was to get her to wait until the electioneering period was almost over so the pressure from the media could be curtailed. This may not happen if the media push hard enough for ‘stories’ in the next month.
She won’t have enough time to prepare physically and emotionally. The right wing media are going to be pushed into the background so as not to tax her abilities.
