Climate Change Action
Stand by me
An old song. Gospel origins. Rediscoveries. Modifications. Repurposed. It lives on. Listen.
Front retreats
A lightning storm front came and went.
Australia adjusts directions
Murdoch is trying to manipulate Australian Elections
Bach music played well
What if
A surely remarkable speech.
Divine Greek sound
To sing and play in this way affords a deep understanding and feeling. Expressing what cannot be put in words. Such is the quality of this heart-warming music.
A bad leader gets worse
For the past weeks, the NSW (still) premier Berejiklian has made big announcements about the vaccination rate in NSW. She tried to sell this to the public as her achievement, while the daily cases went from hundreds to well over 1000. It was Berejiklian who imposed a lockdown way too late and thereby the NSW crisis started. She even ridiculed others who quickly and timely decided for lockdowns as a means to stop virus spread.
The sudden and dramatic increase in vaccination rate in NSW is to a large extent a result of fear among the public in view of the large number of new infections per day. It is certainly not a success for Berejiklian.
The late NSW lockdown is nothing but a consequence of involving the business lobby directly or indirectly in the government decision making process. And we all know how close the liberal government is to business. Lockdown is bad for business and no-lockdown is bad for the health of the population and ultimately bad for the nation.
