Is Lantana Camera and its related cousins a way to a. capture carbon; b. capture nitrogen and increase soil fertility; c. a crop that if properly managed could be successfully grown by farmers almost everywhere?
Hold onto your hats! Seems the property/financial market in China is in a veritable MESS (see p29 of today's SMH). Seems Xi Jinping may have taken his "eye off the ball". It is not about Taiwan "s....d", it's about the ECONOMY!
Inflation ... Take the time to look at the relationship between high crude oil prices and high world wide inflation from the early 1970s until now. Then tell me high crude oil prices are not the trigger!
The RBA. Time for Albanese to have a "root and branch" review of the role of the RBA in times of excessive inflation. PS: How many people have shares in Banks (and are doing quite well thank you!) off the back of high bank profits despite inflationary pressures?
So interesting!
Trauma therapy often neglects the fact Complex Childhood Trauma often leads to identity & personality disturbances in addition to PTSD symptoms. When the carer is also the abuser it shapes a child's vulnerable nervous system which is solely dependent on carers to help them feel safe, connected & calm.
It can, for example, show up in avoiding relationships for fear of rejection, intense fears of intimacy, or being overly attached, such as ending up in codependent relationships.
There seems to be a direct correlation between higher than usual oil prices and inflation. Today in Newcastle, NSW, one store-associated petrol outlet was selling 91 Unleaded for $1.74 (with voucher) while another outlet was selling at $2.24, a $0.50 increase! Where is the ACCC?
Peter Hartcher(p36, SMH, 21/10/23) thinks Albo fumbled the ball with the Voice referendum. If he did (not agreed by me!) that alleged fumble has provided Labor with important information about critical issues affecting the Australian electorate, from which Labor should benefit!
Further on the Gaza debacle, read at your peril the Josh Frydenberg hagiographical piece on page 35 of the SMH, 21/10/23. His "opinions"are totally one-sided, without any attempt to provide an historical context to the issue or the Israeli/Palestinian problem in general.
For a fairly balanced view of the current Gaza debacle, read the SMH 21/10/23 article on page 31 by Y.N. Harari.
Lovely article on page 27 of the SMH, 21/10/23. All about "The Fred Hollows Foundation". At the end of the article is an acknowledgement that the journalist's "airfare to Vietnam" was paid for by the Foundation. One trusts the SMH will donate same BACK to the Foundation, pronto!
It is clear that in Australia our mental health systems are sadly out of whack. The number of people wandering the streets, unmedicated and/or untreated, is a National disgrace.
Australia's immigration laws are an ABSOLUTE DISGRACE. It is no longer humane (if it ever was!) for individuals & families (especially children, many born here) to wait years & years & years on
temporary visas (often with harsh work restrictions) while the government fiddles.
New tweets? A mixture of stuff a day old, or 7 hours ago, etc, with one 18 minutes ago. Not good enough!
Today's Sydney Morning Herald (p16) has a photo of Prigozhin touting for military work in Africa. Now of course he has reverted to a different UNDERTAKING!
Why am I getting tweets that are many hours old? Why are more recent tweets mixed up among older tweets. Poor organisation or what?
In the recent Ashes series Usman Khawaja scored more runs than any other batter. Question: why was he not named "player of the series"? Starc's performance was good but his rate per wicket was not spectacular.
