History began on this day, according to Ptolemy, in 747 BC. This was the beginning of the reign of Nabû-nāṣir. Not much is known about the King of Babylon who ruled from 747 to 734. He provided precise historical records according to time and this impressed Ptolemy. In 1815, Napoleon escaped from Elba. Within a year he lost at Waterloo and forever. In 1909, Kinemacolor was the first colour motion picture process, shown at the Palace Theatre London. In 1917, The Original Dixieland Jass Band recorded the first Jazz album for the Victor Talking Machine Company. It started Jazz. In 1935, Hitler broke the treaty of Versailles by ordering the building of the Luftwaffe. On the same day in 1935, Robert Watson-Watt carried out a demonstration near Daventry which led directly to the development of radar in the United Kingdom. A year later, in 1936, some young Japanese officers attempted a coup. In 1993, a car bomb was detonated to take out the Twin Towers. It was beneath the North tower, killed six and injured a thousand. Years later, a perpetrator flying over NYC with a federal agent, the agent told the perpetrator that that was the tower he tried to take down. The perpetrator said if he had had more money he would have been successful.
Today is the day some backbenchers have claimed that they could remove Mr Abbott from the Prime Minister's position and install a vain and foolish Malcolm Turnbull. This is a tragedy for NSW voters so close to the NSW election. It is not yet noticed, but the ALP in Cabramatta are engaged in placing signs inappropriately on State Rail property. They have done so in previous elections too, with impunity. But that doesn't concern the ambitious and ambivalent Malcolm Turnbull.
2014
Everything changes. I will continue with my columns, but the look and feel will be different. I intend to sell up some time in April, so I have an opportunity to do something substantive and creative. I have ended my campaigns, and only have a petition for the NSW Premier Barry O'Farrell to remedy my whistle blower situation. I was going to cut back on Face Book, but somebody beat me to it, making false complaints to get me banned from posting for a time. I would like to thank my hard working team, Mandy, Stephanie, John and Phil .. and also Jenny who has moved on, but will always be part of the team. Also thanks to Dean who proposed this format. I'm working on a sequel to my autobiography, Thief! which I finished in '04 and which I now need to update with a new look. I had added on extra material, but my view now is very different to what it was then. I can't post aspects of it, as I will sell it through Amazon .. and because I released elements last time, they won't credit it as a new original work. Also many thanks to my brother in Christ Timothy Ly. Tim has embarked on his new project a mini series of martial arts made in Australia by Australians. He was the brains behind Maximum Choppage round 2 and Rumble Pictures. Due for release in 2015. Also, many thanks to Daniel and the team at Caroline Glick. It is a privilege to be your friend. Also J-Fo. I can't say why, but if you are lucky, you will see Gillard in the dock, and J-Fo asking questions of her dad .. it'll never happen outside of an Alan Jones Speech at a luncheon.
On this day in 1995, a brilliant young Mexican American performer entranced a crowd of some 65000. I provided a few youtube offerings after historical 'Matches.' Her name was Selena. She had been performing since she was 11 years old. Days after this concert, she was dead. She had been shot by a President of her fan club. It might be argued that the fan hadn't meant to kill her. It was a shot in the shoulder which severed an artery. But it is stupid to think you could shoot someone and not expect death to follow. The President had been embezzling money and had been fired for it. They had agreed to hand over essential documents to Selena. And so, a 23 yo woman with so much promise was eliminated by someone they had trusted.
On another year, but on this day, 2012, a thug whom Obama would later describe as someone who "Could have been my son" died after beating up an armed man. In the rush to prosecute the victim, courts ignored and compromised evidence Trayvon had been involved with a substantial number of break and enters. One certainty is Trayvon never did that after this day in 2012.
It is hard to imagine how Conroy could have put in a worse performance in the senate without hurting a puppy in front of a camera. But Shorten still views Conroy as front bench material. It all seems very confusing for the ALP, but the short story is the conservatives have stopped the boats when the ALP had started them. I don't mind the 50k people who have come to Australia after they were vetted by the UN. I'd rather have had 50k refugees. But the 1400 or so deaths is 1400 too many. It isn't compassionate to drown people. Jason Clare said that.

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
Lorraine Allen Hider I signed the petition ages ago David, with pleasure, nobody knows what it's like until they've been there. Keep heart David take care.
