What the Bible says about death
Here are some men and women who mocked God:
JOHN LENNON: Some years before, during his interview with an American Magazine, he said: "Christianity will end, it will disappear. I do not have to argue about that. I am certain.
Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple, today we are more famous than Him" (1966).
Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times..
TANCREDO NEVES (President of Brazil ): During the Presidential campaign, he said if he got 500,000 votes from his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency. Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being made President, then he died.
THE MAN WHO BUILT THE TITANIC: After the construction of the Titanic, a reporter asked him how safe the Titanic would be. With an ironic tone he said: "Not even God can sink it"
The result: I think you all know what happened to the Titanic.
MARILYN MONROE: She was visited by Billy Graham during a presentation of a show. He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her. After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said: "I don't need your Jesus". A week later, she was found dead in her apartment.
BON SCOTT: The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang: Don't stop me, I'm going down all the way, down the highway to hell". On the 19th of February 1980, Bon Scott was found dead, he had been choked by his own vomit.
CAMPINAS/SP IN 2005: In Campinas, Brazil a group of friends, drunk, went to pick up a friend. The mother accompanied her to the car and was so worried about the drunkenness of her friends and she said to the daughter - holding her hand, who was already seated in the car: "MY DAUGHTER, GO WITH GOD AND MAY HE PROTECT YOU." She responded: "ONLY IF HE (GOD) TRAVELS IN THE TRUNK, CAUSE INSIDE HERE IT'S ALREADY FULL".. Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died, the car could not be recognized what type of car it had been, but surprisingly, the trunk was intact. The police said there was no way the trunk could have remained intact. To their surprise, inside the trunk was a crate of eggs, none were broken.
Christine Hewitt: A Jamaican Journalist and entertainer, said the Bible (Word of God) was the worst book ever written, in June 2006 she was found burnt beyond recognition in her motor vehicle.
Many more important people have forgotten that there is no other name that was given so much authority as the name of Jesus. Many have died, but only Jesus died and rose again, and he is still alive.
JESUS!!!
P.S: If it was a joke, you would have sent it to everyone. So are you going to have courage to send this? I have done my part, Jesus said "If you are embarrassed about me, I will also be embarrassed about you before my father."
"What benefit does it have, if a man gains the whole world but loses his soul? What can man give in exchange of his soul?" (Matthew 16:26).

Poor Old Hoges a Prisoner in His Home Country
He is not allowed to fly home to good old US of A
Held prisoner by our good diligent Tax Department ATO
Spunky 40-something year old Australian actor named Paul Hogan starred in a low budget comedy called Crocodile Dundee. Much to the shock and surprise of everyone, the Australian made movie became a worldwide phenomena with blistering box office receipts that one website reports totaled a staggering $328,000,000.
In 1986, around the time Mister Hogan's crocodile movie was released, he was dee-vorced from his second wife–who was also his first wife–and in 1990 married his Crocodile Dundee co-star and current wife, actress Linda Kozlowski.
Unfortunately for movie goers, two more Dundee films followed the first. The second installment roared to box office success 1988 and, in a futile effort to squeeze blood from a cinema turnip, the third was released in 2001. Not surprisingly the third, final, and desperate Crocodile Dundee film was a box office flop. None the less and according to the same above mentioned website, the second and third Dundee movies took in combined gross receipts of $278,993,111.
Given their rather slim resumes on the Internet Movie Data Base, not many people, particularly those in the business of show, have thought much if at all of Mister Hogan and Miz Kozlowski since at least the early 2000s. The couple have, however, been much in the papers and tabloids the last few days and weeks due to some nasty and alleged tax issues back in Australia.
Here's the skinny as Your Mama understands it: For the last five or so years Mister Hogan (and Miz Kozlowski) have been embroiled with the Australian Taxation Office over back taxes...boo-coo back taxes as it turns out. The A.T.O. claims that Mister Hogan, now a septuagenarian, used off-shore bank accounted to hide profits from the stoopid but lucrative Crocodile Dundee film franchise. Although exact numbers have not been released, recent reports reveal that the Aussie tax-man says Mister Hogan owes 37.6 million Australian dollars of unpaid taxes, an amount Your Mama's currency conversion contraption reveals amounts to a heart stopping 33,365,600 in U.S. cheddar. A week ago, Mister Hogan flew back to Australia san wife and kid to attend his mother's funeral and, much to his and his wife's surprise, was immediately served an order by the A.T.O. that forbids him from leaving Australia until he coughs up the cash for his back taxes.''end of quote

Member for Rockhampton in Federal Government of Australia
A hint with my home photography, the originals are quiet large. Click once you get a bigger picture, and twice it may fill your whole screen. Worth a 3rd look..

Report from the Morning Bulletin, Rockhampton's News Paper
Kirsten defends relocation cost
Adrian Taylor | 10th August 2010
Kirsten Livermore sizes up her new office at The Swan.
by Allan Reinikka
KIRSTEN Livermore’s office relocation in Rockhampton cost taxpayers more than $318,000, newly published expenses reveal.
The move from the Capricornia MP’s former constituency headquarters in East Street to the newly refurbished Swan Hotel in Denham Street last September was the major factor in her claim totalling $403,324 for the six-month period to the end of December 2009.
Defending the cost, a spokesman for Ms Livermore said she was normally noted for her frugal approach and determination to give constituents value for money.
He said the bill for relocation, the first for 10 years, had been significantly boosted by factors beyond her control.
“Offices for Federal MPs have, by regulation, to meet communication and security standards,” he said.
It is understood that when the MP took a lease on The Swan, it was an empty shell and had to be decorated and furnished at the taxpayers’ expense. A soundproof room had to be created – in theory so that a visiting prime minister might speak privately on the telephone to another head of state.
At the time of the move Ms Livermore cited problems with parking in East Street as one of the main reasons for relocating to the old pub which was refurbished and converted into offices after lying empty for years.
The MP, who is bidding for a fifth term as Capricornia’s representative in Canberra, also claimed $28,000 for office administration, $13,219 travelling allowance, $18,000 in air fares and almost $10,000 for charter flights within the constituency.
Her office said she had spent less than half of her annual $26,000 allocation for family travel – money that can be used to take her spouse and children between Canberra and Rockhampton during the 21 weeks she spends in parliament during the year.
Ms Livermore claimed $5000 expenses for running her own car on constituency business, but less than $100 in taxi fares.
In the same six-month period when ex-Prime Minister Kevin Rudd racked up $1.8 million in expenses, and Sunshine Coast MP Peter Slipper claimed $640,000, including $16,000 for taxis, Member for Flynn Chris Trevor claimed $520,447.
He also moved to new offices – in Gladstone – and taxpayers were slugged $353,609 for the new office plus $101,000 in office administration.
The Member for Dawson, James Bidgood, claimed $269,225 during the same six-month period.

The total for the three Central Queensland members is $1,192,996.

Some wonderful Cartoons in Political Satire

14.4%C at 11am Qld time & Raining & Patio temp is 9%C on Thursday 8th - Hot water bottle on my lap, and put another coat on my back - there are room heaters but I probably need one tonight so I can sleep as well as dear old fashioned hot water bottle.
I heard on the News this morning that thousands of people in Perth asked for 'help' with their electricity bill/s. Good old days when I scrounged firewood across the creek formy slow combustion stove that only partially worked! Water heater was choked up & gravity feed did not have sufficient pressure to blow it out..
Anna goanna or Anna the Blight has seen fit to up our electricity costs, & we cannot go mine for our own coal, or pick up what is dropped to keep a heater for personal use going.. I still use scraps of wood to use in portable charcoal stove as chorcoal is 6 dollars for a small packet. Stove is used during black-outs - stormy summers it is necessary. Don't have this problem in keeping warm.

The original Caldron

Young Zeg's Cartoon depicting the Unpopular 'Mining Tax' proposed by Kevin Rudd
William Shakespeare (1564-1616)
from Macbeth
A dark Cave. In the middle, a Caldron boiling. Thunder.
Enter the three Witches.
1 WITCH. Thrice the brinded cat hath mew'd.
2 WITCH. Thrice and once, the hedge-pig whin'd.
3 WITCH. Harpier cries:—'tis time! 'tis time!
1 WITCH. Round about the caldron go;
In the poison'd entrails throw.—
Toad, that under cold stone,
Days and nights has thirty-one;
Swelter'd venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i' the charmed pot!
ALL. Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
2 WITCH. Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing,—
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
ALL. Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
3 WITCH. Scale of dragon; tooth of wolf;
Witches' mummy; maw and gulf
Of the ravin'd salt-sea shark;
Root of hemlock digg'd i the dark;
Liver of blaspheming Jew;
Gall of goat, and slips of yew
Sliver'd in the moon's eclipse;
Nose of Turk, and Tartar's lips;
Finger of birth-strangled babe
Ditch-deliver'd by a drab,—
Make the gruel thick and slab:
Add thereto a tiger's chaudron,
For the ingrediants of our caldron.
ALL. Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
2 WITCH. Cool it with a baboon's blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.

Northern Truth | Politics Blog | Cairns, North Queensland (QLD) & Australia Politics

This young ring-in ''goes in for the kill'' & failure..
what you say in Cairns does not particularly get noticed in CQ or the great SE.
Northern Truth | Politics Blog | Cairns, North Queensland (QLD) & Australia Politics: "A breath of fresh air has blown into the LNP, that is young Aidan McLindon the MP for Beaudesert has stated the obvious, accusing the LNP of losing direction and needing to make a fresh appeal to young voters. Another words 'Viking Boy' appeals to no one and his position on the LNP ticket as Deputy assures the LNP defeat in the next Queensland State election."
Each to his own belief, this breath of fresh air has still to prove himself.
''Early life
McLindon was born in Darwin in the Northern Territory, and was a bar attendant and musician before entering politics. He attended school at Springwood State High School where he was elected a prefect. His military service included roles as an infantry soldier and driver 1997–2002 in the Australian Army. McLindon was also Intensive Exercise Trained (IET).[1]
McLindon cites an early interest in politics at the age of 15 from work experience at Queensland Parliament House in 1995. He later went on to complete a degree in Government and Politics, majoring in Public Policy, at Griffith University.[2] McLindon acknowledged a number of academics and political scientists from the university in his inaugural speech to Queensland Parliament.[3] McLindon has also gained some publicity in the media for his musical interests, especially his involvement in the alternative rock band killTV.[4] McLindon and other members of the band attracted some notoriety as a result of their security breach at a televised Big Brother event in 2005, in protest against the reality program's''

They are found there in the summer, feeding on krill and other marine resources and in the autumn head north into the warmer waters of the tropics. There they give birth, the calf feeding on its mother's rich milk before migrating back to Antarctic waters.
Fourteen species of cetaceans (the name given to whales, dolphins and porpoises) are found in Antarctica. Of these, twelve are whales. There are two groups, the baleen whales and the toothed whales. Cetaceans are highly intelligent mammals. They communicate with sound which also serves as an echo location system."

Vancouver Travel Information and Travel Guide - Canada - Lonely Planet: "When the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games roll into town in 2010, there'll be no shortage of jaw-dropping visuals, instantly inspiring people around the world to check out Canada's immigration procedures. Vancouver is, after all, one of the cities that routinely tops those lists of the world's greatest places to live. But beyond the breathtaking snowcapped crags, city-hugging beaches and dense waterfront forests lies a comparatively young metropolis that's still trying to discover its true identity - less than 150 years after a 'gassy' Englishman rowed in and kicked it all off with a makeshift pub."

China sentences Tibetan film-maker
China sentences Tibetan film-maker: "A Chinese court has handed a six-year prison term to a Tibetan film-maker who made an internationally watched documentary in which ordinary people aired grievances, his family says.
Dhondup Wangchen, 35, had trekked across the Himalayan territory for five months asking about topics including Chinese rule, the exiled Dalai Lama and the Olympics which Beijing was preparing to hold in August 2008.
The self-taught film-maker was arrested in March that year as major protests erupted in Tibet.
He had just completed the film, Leaving Fear Behind, which has since been screened in more than 30 countries."

whaling: West's Encyclopedia of American Law (Full Article) from Answers.com
whaling: West's Encyclopedia of American Law (Full Article) from Answers.com: "Hunting of whales for food, oil, or both. Whaling dates to prehistoric times, when Arctic peoples used stone tools to hunt whales. They used the entire animal, a feat not accomplished by Western commercial whalers until the advent of floating factories in the 20th century. The Basque were the first Europeans to hunt whales commercially; when seaworthy oceangoing vessels began to be made, they took to the open seas (14th – 16th century). They were followed by the Dutch and the Germans in the 17th century and the British and their colonists in the 18th century."

Whaling - Ship-based whaling - Te Ara Encyclopedia of New Zealand: "For the first 40 years of the 19th century whaling was the most significant economic activity for Europeans in New Zealand – with the hunt first for sperm whales from visiting ships and then for right whales by shore-based whalers. The pursuit had major consequences for Māori society. Some of New Zealand’s most important early European settlers were whalers"

Pitcairn Islands Study Center:
"MATILDA British whaler under the command of Captain Matthew Weatherhead. The Matilda had sailed from England on March 27 1791, and had touched at Port Jackson and Peru before arriving in Tahiti on February 14, 1792, anchoring in Vaitepiha Bay. For some inscrutable reason Captain Weatherhead stayed only three days at Tahiti.
On the night of February 24, 1792, the Matilda foundered on Mururoa atoll, 640 miles south-east of Tahiti (see the March 1792 commentary in Part I). All of the crew were saved and reached Tahiti on March 5. Soon afterwards the schooner Jenny from Bristol arrived in Tahiti, and when she sailed for America Captain Weatherhead and four members of the crew went with her. Instead of waiting for another ship, three of the men took one of the four whaleboats of the Matilda, fitted it with sails of native matting, and sailed for Port Jackson. They were never heard from again.
If they had waited only a few weeks, they could have sailed back to Europe with Captain Bligh in the Providence. Bligh arrived on April 10 and when he left a little over three months later, he took fifteen of the Matilda’s crew with him. The remaining six wanted to stay on Tahiti. One of them, the Swede Anders Lind, became a kind of military advisor to Pomare I.
In February 1826 Captain Frederick Beechey in HMS Blossom found parts of the wreck of the Matilda on the northern shore of Mururoa.
MOALA (“Mywolla”) Island on the western side of the southern Fijis, considered"
Perhaps we should look to America for any decendants of Matthew Weatherhead.. who ever his parents were.. brothers and sisters in Britian.
I am still not certain where Captain Thomas Weatherhead got to after he ran agroung at Sow & Pigs & the ship the Phoenix 11 was turned into a Hulk
or prison for harden criminals & transported them on to Moreton Bay Penal Settlement [ City of Brisbane today] and Norfolk Island.. Pitcairn?? LOL
what a strange world it is.. {Pamela}

Uganda Solar Lamps | Koru Foundation
Uganda Solar Lamps Koru Foundation: "The Project Plan:
Barefoot Technologies India will import half-watt solar lamps into Uganda and will carry out trainings to their usage and maintenance. 800 lamps will be provided free to the disabled, those suffering from leprosy, and the very poorest, as lighting is a very serious problem for them. A further 350 lamps will be sold to returning IDP’s at a subsidised price."
