The Baird conservative government in NSW won the election and seem to be able to pass legislation through the upper house with Christian Democrat support. Christian Democrats have some bizarre ideas regarding legislation, but compared to the federal independents they are reliable, respecting a government's policy position for the economy. The Insiders (ABC) failed to account for their narrative portrayal that the election was a referendum on the Abbott administration. They decided that the handsome win was a negative for Mr Abbott, but a loss would have been a drawn curtain ending Mr Abbott's career. They also believed the win means no Coal Seam Gas should be mined in NSW. Foley's scare campaigns worked, and now four electorates are Green, but Foley failed to ride a wave off a small base to a larger natural one. The natural base for ALP is government in NSW. Foley's scare campaign grossly under performed for the ALP and this must reflect badly on Shorten whose positions and scares are identical to Foley. But Insiders weren't aware of that in their hysterical anti Abbott narrative. Disappointingly but predictably, Andrew Rohan lost his Smithfield seat to the ALP. It is disappointing because he worked hard for his electorate, while the ALP take it for granted.
Press are reporting on the murderous suicide pilot who killed 149 in the Pyrenees, along with himself. Dumped by his girlfriend the day before. Told his eyesight was failing and he'd never be a flight captain. The coward killed many good people. One of whom was the flight captain, a father of two. He pounded on the door and attempted to enter the cabin, but security measures brought in after 9/11 and other terrorist events, prevented him from saving himself and those people. The poor man. Killed by betrayal. He did nothing wrong.
In 1683, a 15 year old girl was burnt at the stake in Japan. She had met a boy she liked during a fire, and the next year, had attempted to set a fire to see him again. She was caught and brought before a magistrate. The penalty for setting fires was death, but because she was fifteen, she wasn't subject to the law. The magistrate gave her a way out by acknowledging her age, but she claimed to be 16 and adult. So the sentence was carried out. She was a fire horse, according to the zodiac, and forever after, the population of Asia would shrink every sixty years as parents strove to avoid fire horse children. Her name was Yaoya Oshichi, literally "greengrocer Oshichi". In 1792, Gustav III of Sweden died from wounds after being assassinated (shot in the back) 13 days earlier at a royal masquerade ball. He was an enlightened despot and so his killer was not tortured to death until after he was found guilty. He had supported the French Kings deposed by the revolution. In 1809, King Gustav IV of Sweden abdicated to his uncle after an insurrection of the army forced him, on the anniversary of his father's death. In 1886, Dr John Pemberton brewed the first Coca-Cola. In 1951, Ethel and Julius Rosenberg were rightfully convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage.
2014
On this day in 1974, a group of Chinese farmers came across what would be found to be a rich archaeological dig, terracotta warriors guarding the tomb of the first Chinese emperor. They had been placed around 210 BC. In an early illustration of pessimism, work had begun on the necropolis when the emperor was 13 years old. The necropolis would become a microcosm of the palace, with stables, rooms, flowing rivers of mercury, the location site being close to a rich gold vein and jade. Incredible riches buried for two thousand years. The emperor had searched for an elyxer of immortality. Probably because life is sweet. Over the years, the life and works of the emperor became legend.
Australia has not been operating as a nation for two thousand years, or even two hundred years. But in 114 years since federation, the history of union corruption is legendary. The unearthing of the AWU scandal, HSU scandal or any of many others illustrates that the known corruption of union activity in WW2 or thirties has never been addressed. The terracotta army had been buried over time. But the Union corruption has been buried by words from the ABC and ALP love media. It is understandable that a union devotee would cover their ears rather than acknowledge the problem, it is not acceptable that a journalist does the same, regardless of loyalty.

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
