I have no idea whether this was 'hacking' or just the usual 'arse-end-of nowhere' Interweb service causing problems that others assure me are not uncommon around Mt Gambier...SAPol have seized my lap-top and my passwords and said to me whilst raiding my home that they could "just hack it" anyway...which reminds me that I continue to get legal advice re this Raidy Thingy and that entire situation has lurched from completely ludicrous to, to, very completely ludicrous...(oh way ta' use ya' words-Ed)...get stuffed...we apparently have the National Broadband Network available now but it requires 'registering'...anyhoos, started here yesterday morning***
What Would You Call It: if your City Council spends $10,000s on an alleged 'expert consultant' from Interstate to prepare a report saying exactly what Council wants it to say, and then uses that person to try and promote said 'Plan' and give Council some credibility re Public Consultation...(I'd call that some very expensive manure-Ed)...indeed...
Again on the ABC News 24 stating as fact that MH 17 bought down by a missile...and whilst there's meant to be an agreed ceasefire/amnesty in the crash area to allow independent observers/investigators unfettered access, there is actually increased military activity, particularly from the Ukrainians as they push to reclaim Eastern Ukraine...why the shreck would we thinking of putting armed Oz Federal Police and Defense personnel into the middle of a war-zone, particularly after we have been officially, repeatedly, publicly abusing the crap out of the East Ukrainian 'Separatists' and Russia...
I'm very, very, very concerned about the prospect of Oz casualties on the ground, and how PM Tony Abbott would milk that for every bit of personal credibility he can...***(this is where I got to yesterday)
And the news stream hasn't changed much, with the Aussie Federal Police not able to get into the area, although it was earlier reported that several had, possibly they were Crash Investigators or Observers or something different...I remain deeply concerned that Australians are being sent into harms way, and that there will be 'an incident' where 'innocent un-armed Australians were cowardly murdered whilst trying to Bring Them Home'...
Taking Potshots At Everybody: yet still I missed the elephant in the room by not making the very obvious observation that it's not just Western Europe that gets their gas/oil/whatevs from Russia...(oh, of course, China has just signed a massive gas deal with Russia-Ed)...which would therefore?...(give Russia the very powerful Economic upper-hand over Europe, particularly because the current Economic exchange has Russia exporting a lot of gas/oil/whatevs whilst importing mucho goods, eg, luxury cars-Ed)...yes, and...
(And Europe just doesn't have options for Energy aquisition but Russia can get luxury cars from wherevs-Ed)...yes, and?...(and Australia was relying on flogging off all our gas to China, which now means that market is either gone or greatly devalued-Ed)...exactly...Russia and China have just formed a very powerful Economic Bloc that can effectively control Western Europe...it just makes me more concerned that we are being quite deliberately dragged into a conflict in Ukraine...
