We are definitely a Stargate household; in love with the wraith; with action heroes and forms of entertainment you can watch with the kids without being embarrassed. They're teenagers now and the world has been enveloped in smut; Big Brother scandals, "suggestive" lyrics. He sought passionately beyond his years; caught in tiny moments beyond embarrassment, open declarations. I just want to be friends. And in his own craven stupidity; in his own longing for a home beyond time; well yes, old fashioned as it was, he made a complete fool of himself.
He stood and he said, in pure anonymity there were things he could not say, diseases he could not name, fortunes that were brushed up against, gleaming black cars, Cayennes, the thoughts that tunnelled his own productivity, if that made any sense at all. Finally he made the jump; because he thought, just one last roll of the dice. Everything doubled in price while we stopped and fiddled. The astonishing beauty of the summer was all for him, a giant walnut tree in the front lawn; Devonne van Dusen, 2422 Coon Rapids Boulevarde, Coon Rapids, Minnesota I think it was. My pen friend from America. We kept in touch for years, until adult chaos shook the trails apart.
A family lawyer has been killed in Melbourne, a man charged. Lots of speculation over whether it was a Family Court matter. Perhaps one of the only miracles is that it hasn't happened before - you take a man's kids, home, assets, income, demean him in public and humiliate him in court - and then claim this completely abusive process is in the best interests of your kids - that is the typical process in the country's most corrupt and most dishonest jurisdiction - corrupt because the farcical family reports and the systemic abuse of psychiatric evidence are endemic - and people are being paid kmnowing full well that they are acting in a dishonest manner and against the interests of children.
The court has brought the legal profession into disrepute. There's barely a separated bloke in the country who has anything but contempt for lawyers, contempt for a government that continues to perpetuate the institution's abuse of children, and politicians too scared of the women's vote to speak the truth.
In that court truth is a complete irrelevancy and always has been. They reach to a higher goal, to a feminist ideal; truth is nothing but a weapon men use to batter women and perpetuate the system, as feminist jurisprudence claims. Gough Whitlam, who founded the court in 1975, has just turned 90 amidst plaudits and yet another tax payer funded party. It was one of the worst things he ever did; and as has always been typical of the modern Labor party, represented a complete and total betrayal of the working class men that created the party. The Howard government's feeble attempts to reform this troubled jurisdiction have also been half-assed, and will fail because they don't reform the Court's practice. It's been very unfortunate.
The news just said he was a former client.
At least this day started afresh. Howard and Costello have been caught up in a ridiculous battle for the leadership - after Howard has been there for a decade and led the party to unparallelled dominance.
Many people believe the new industrial relations legislation is Howard's poll tax; the tax that saw the end of Maggie Thatcher; one step too far. Others think we are a country of contractors and small business people and the new laws will encourage an entrepeneurial culture. I'm not sure who's right.
I predicted that Howard would introduce the GST, a ridiculous tax which has done nothing but feed the pockets of bloated public service bureaucracies, and would then exit as the most unpopular prime minister in Australian history. Nothing of the kind happened. Shows what I know.
Terror: At least 190 dead:
MUMBAI: Seven coordinated blasts in local trains running on the western line in Mumbai on Tuesday evening. All within 11 minutes. To trigger such a series of terror, the plot would have to be minutely planned and executed. And a thorough understanding of the behaviour of a regular local train commuter in Mumbai would be essential.
The proficiency of the plan is evident from the following timings of the different detonations: Khar -- 1824 hours; Bandra -- 1824 hours; Jogeshwari -- 1825 hours; Mahim -- 1826 hours; Mira Road -- 1829 hours; Matunga -- 1830 hours; Borivali -- 1835 hours.
No information is as yet available on the explosives or detonators used or how the explosions were triggered off. But it is apparent from the timely managed detonations in the suburban trains last evening that the perpetrators had expert knowledge of exact trains that would actually carry the maximum number of passengers. They had obviously done a thorough study of the railway time table and meticulously chosen the seven trains that would ferry the maximum number of commuters in the evening rush hour. Hence, the three Virar bound trains were chosen besides the other trains terminating at Borivili - all soft targets.
