… goes to TheReconnection.com. I saw this flyer at a local cafe and got such a laugh out of it, I had to share it.
I especially love the second paragraph:
“The Reconnection (TM) bring in “new” axiatonal lines that enable us to standardize unique vibratory levels and frequencies for healing and ultimately, for our evolution. These axiatonal lines are part of a parallel-dimensional circulatory system that draws the basic energy for the renewal functions of the human body.”
Wow. And I often wonder how much bullshit is in *my* marketing documents. That takes the cake.

Awesome work from Matt and Kat over at OpenAustralia (see my June 2008 interview) who are…
… the first website to make the Register of Senators’ Interests available online. This important public document until now has only been available to the small number of people who were able to visit the office in Canberra where the documents are held. In the Register each Senator declares information of financial interests, stocks and shares held, gifts received over a certain value, and memberships of Clubs and Associations.
Read the Register of Senators’ Interests here: OpenAustralia news (OpenAustralia.org)
An important step forward in transparency for the Australian federal government!

Photo from the upcoming film apparently shot in Melbourne according to @Hellblazer. One of the all-time greatest kids books. I hope the film lives up to it.

I’m still totally geeked out by the Antikythera Mechanism. This video shows how it worked using an amazing replica. I want.

Well there you have it. Kevin Rudd is as much as scumbag as John Howard.
It didn’t take long for his true colours to show. A year after he was elected on a campaign which had a strong focus on climate change action, he has totally ignored Ross Garnaut’s recommendations of 5 per cent per year and decided we’ll settle on 5 per cent by 2020 or 15% if the rest of the world falls into line. Let me remind you that Kevin Rudd COMMISSIONED the report from Garnaut in the first place. He used it as a tool to help him win the 2007 election – and then completely and utterly ignored it.
What a complete cunt.
I, of course, saw this coming and didn’t vote for him. I’ve been convinced for a long time that both parties are just as corrupted as each other. They are both controlled by the elite – ie, the seriously wealthy and powerful folks who really run things. And these people don’t want change. They live for the next quarterly results. They are mostly in their 60s and 70s and don’t care if the world goes to hell in a handbasket by 2020 – cuz they know they won’t be around. They are in it for themselves.
To those of you who voted for Rudd – how do you feel?
To those of you who are as pissed off and angry as I am – what are we going to do about it?
