https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/apr/17/new-zealanders-deploy-helicopters-and-thermal-imaging-to-search-for-lost-dogsquote:In three separate cases this year, the search for missing dogs has attracted huge resources, thousands of dollars in donations and filled hundreds of hours as desperate owners have scoured the bush for their best friends. Frankly, I 100% support using resources to find dogs before finding humans, and hope Australia adopts a similar model.

I also fall in and out of a nicotine habit but its because of these lovely jobs I get full of Alcohol and Nicotine addicts that create these crazy power work social cultures where like 30% of the workplace smokes and 10% vapes and the rest go drinking at the lunchtime bar across the road. Basically what I'm saying is we need to dismantle the class system.

ABC radio was saying that Weed is deadly and will kill you like alcohol and tobacco. says it kills absolutely ZERO. Is this correct? The Greens need to make that point I would think?

ABC News posted:Renewable energy capacity set to exceed target Federal Government said was impossible So the impossible target the government said we'd never reach has been/will have been reached. Truly stellar work by this government. Through literally no good policy work they have managed to reduce our greenhouse emissions and meet our targets with seemingly no effort at all, in fact, many would say they appeared to be actively working against such a goal. Also, I'd like to take a moment to tell my brother he was wrong, Solar Panels are perfectly useful form of electricity generation and a great way to reduce our impact on climate change. Neener neener neener.

Greg Hunt interview goes off rails over 'free speech' and gay conversion therapy Greg Hunt has repeatedly questioned whether an ABC presenter believes in “freedom of speech” in an interview defending Victorian Liberal members’ plans to debate gay conversion therapy. The health minister told Radio National presenter Patricia Karvelas he does not support gay conversion therapy but refused to say if he was concerned by a motion that was to be debated at the upcoming Liberal state council. On Monday Fairfax Media reported that the Victorian Liberal president, Michael Kroger, had intervened to stop a proposed motion to allow doctors to “offer counselling out of same-sex attraction or gender transitioning”. After questions about the Greens’ plans to legalise cannabis and private health insurance rebates, Karvelas asked Hunt whether he was alarmed by the proposed motion. “Look, it’s not something I support, it’s not federal government policy, it’s not going to be federal government policy and we’re not about to change our position on that,” Hunt replied. The health minister added “people are entitled to have different views, views that I disagree with”. “What I do worry about is this constant view that nobody is anywhere allowed to have a different view. As a journalist, I would hope you would believe in freedom of speech.” In a testy exchange – possibly designed to throw red meat to the growing conservative faction of the Victorian Liberal party – Hunt then asked Karvelas if she believed in freedom of speech. When she affirmed she did, Hunt repeatedly asked her to define the concept. Hunt clarified that he was not suggesting freedom of speech included the right to attempt to convert young people away from homosexuality. “No – [they’re] two completely different things. Do I think that there should be a practise of doing that? No. Do I think people have the right to have views I disagree with? They are entitled to have views you and I disagree with.” Hunt asked Karvelas if she was “afraid to stand up for freedom of speech” by failing to provide a definition of the concept. When Karvelas thanked Hunt for appearing on the program, Hunt chastised her, saying it was “disappointing” that she had not answered his question. “You asked questions that you want to present as a game but this is a real discussion about freedom of speech and this was your chance – and I hope you run this in full,” he said. The interview continued, with Hunt grumbling she had not answered the question. Karvelas then asked why Kroger had pulled the motion, prompting Hunt to claim he was not aware there was one. “I have no idea about the background to it,” he replied, after answering several minutes of questions about the motion. Karvelas reaffirmed that she believes in freedom of speech, adding she also believed gay conversion therapy “has had devastating results for people”, noting that Hunt and “science” also took that view. Apparently believing he was no longer on-air, Hunt said he believed in freedom of speech but Karvelas “wouldn’t say that when we were on air”. “We’re on air right now – I do plan to run this,” Karvelas said, adding it was “extraordinary” Hunt had “tried to turn around the interview and hijack it”. “I am surprised it took an extraordinary amount of time for you to acknowledge you actually believe in freedom of speech,” Hunt said before Karvelas finally concluded the interview.

The President of Azerbaijan took over from his father in 2003. His wife is the Vice-President. And last week he was re-elected with 86 per cent of the vote after a boycott by opposition parties. Liberal MP Craig Kelly says Australia needs to learn from the country's electoral system. The south-west Sydney MP travelled to the former Soviet nation for the second time last week as leader of a delegation to observe its presidential election. In comments that riled Armenians in Australia, Mr Kelly was quoted in Azerbaijan media saying he had witnessed a "coherent, democratic process" and "an election organisation that surpassed Australia's experience". "We, together with my colleagues, will undoubtedly bring the useful experience home," he said.
