Dank has been cleared of 24 of 34 charges by AFL Anti Doping Tribunal. He isn't guilty of supplying to AFL players. Ten charges have been upheld related to trafficking and supply to AFL support staff at Essendon, Gold Coast, Carlton and in Baseball. The ten charges may be appealed because it appears to be an over reach to charge Dank with an offence unrelated to players of the sport. Considering what MLB did to A-Rod, one feels they can take care of themselves. But the entire situation has been manufactured by ASADA to protect the ALP desperate for a distraction over a year ago.
The missing 3 yo child, William Tyrrell, may have been taken by a pedophile ring. There seems to be no other explanation. He didn't wander off, he disappeared while under parental supervision. He lived in a remote country area. So any abductor was probably known by him. There can be nothing more heartbreaking for his parents.
Greens are claiming success for things they have obstructed or have no hand in. Just as when the ALP trumpeted success for ending the Pacific Solution and claiming they were more compassionate than the conservatives. It was not true, but still the claim is made despite all the evidence.
It is important to care for the environment. That is why home energy should be from coal, and cars should be powered by petrol. Because it is efficient. And if industry has a role in saving the environment, it will be because it was profitable.
In 1397, Geoffrey Chaucer, a writer and public servant, told his Canterbury Tales for the first time. It was an unfinished work, because Chaucer died before completing it, but he had written enough to show the scope of the work. The tales related to the then custom of visiting Canterbury Cathedral for similar reasons Islamic People go to Mecca. It was religious, but also a party. Canterbury Cathedral is where Thomas Becket was martyred. Thomas had resisted his friend's, the king's (Henry II), desire to do things which were a-religious. Some claimed Becket was greedy and spending church money on himself. An exasperated king asked aloud "Won't someone rid me of this meddlesome priest?" and some knights took it upon themselves to kill Becket. They did, in Canterbury Cathedral, but in cutting down the figure of Becket while he was praying to God, the discovery was made Becket wore a hair shirt. Nobody wore a hair shirt for comfort. It was a terrible material which was too warm and subject to lice. Called mortification of the flesh, Becket wore it without telling anyone so as to be devoted to God without bragging. He had been faithful to God, and murdered by order of his King and friend. The killers fled to Rome, and the Pope ordered they serve penance by serving in the Holy Land, thus forming the order of the Knights of St Thomas.
In 1492, Columbus signed an agreement to go to Asia and collect spices. He was diverted. In 1521, Martin Luther was asked to answer specific charges. He asked for time to consider them, and was given one night. In 1895, Japan and China signed for peace. Within fifty years, neither side had a government party to the signing. In 1897, the first UFO incident occurred, and the first hoax in Texas. In 1937, Daffy Duck first appeared in Porky's Duck Hunt. In 1945, Brazilian forces liberated the Italian town called Montese from the NAZIS. In 1961, Bay of Pigs disaster in Cuba was made worse by JFK. In 1969, Palestinian Sirhan Sirhan was convicted of killing Bobby Kennedy. In 1970, Apollo 13 returned to Earth safely. In 1973, George Lucas began writing a preparation for Star Wars. In 1984, a policeman in London was killed by a gun fired from a Libyan embassy.

I sent my petition to Mr Abbott's office yesterday after Barry O'Farrell resigned. I got an immediate reply which passed responsibility to the Australian Minister for Justice. So, I looked to get in touch with that department. I need to send them a fax. I will do it .. maybe on Good Friday. A reminder that my blog is every day of the year. I'm proud of that, although I don't profit from it yet. I once got three payments of $12 US in 2008 and so started a business with what the insane call encouragement of Centerlink. Mr O'Farrell is copping some criticism, but the truth is he ran an effective and clean government. Mr Baird has big shoes to fill, but I believe he can do it. The entire conservative team has more honour individually than the ALP collectively.
There is gathering impetus for those questioning the existence of the ICAC. We need them. We need them to be competent.

Mr Ball, I will not sign your petition as it will do no good, but I will share your message and ask as many of friends who read it, to share it also. Let us see if we cannot use the power of the internet to spread the word of these infamous killings. As a father and a former soldier, I cannot, could not, justify ignoring this appalling action by the perpetrators, whoever they may; I thank you Douglas. You are wrong about the petition. Signing it is as worthless and meaningless an act as voting. A stand up guy would know that. - ed
