    Australian Mining Executive Accused of Spying on China

    We're acting as China's bitch here, rightfully so in a way, seeing as we have such a huge vested interest in our economic ties with the nation. Doesn't help my nationalistic pride to have as leaning over backwards for them all the time, though.

    The Official Le Tour De France/Cycling Thread

    The chase group has been caught and I'm tipping at the pace the peloton is going, the remaining break away group will get caught. Hopefully Evans has enough steam left to keep with any other new break away group to grab a stage win. Unlikely though.

    Does anyone have a depressed parent?

    Getting depressed because one or both of your parents is depressed just turns into a vicious cycle, where they bring you down, then you bring them down and so on, so forth. You just have to be strong for your parent/s. This will make them happier and in turn, make you happier, which is a much...

    Climate Change

    Why all the fuss? Climate change has truly made a positive impact on the safety of our shipping lines. http://www.venganza.org/images/store/pirategraph_hiqual2.jpg

    The Official Le Tour De France/Cycling Thread

    I think that Evans will come off second best in this deal. While his chances of a podium finish are far greater now, people will expect Armstrong to do better than him. Let me just clarify my above statement that I'm going for Armstrong in the absence of Evans and Leipheimer.

    Australian Politics

    I would definitely disagree with that statement. The Australian? That's right wing. SMH? That's hippy fodder.

    :S I'd prefer Lance over Contador any day of the week. An inspirational story for others to follow as well as there being a good cause behind him.

    Nuclear Power?

    Pretty sure all the islanders immigrating to Australia due to rising sea levels would have something to disagree with you on there :/

    Australian Politics

    For the emotional illiterate amongst us, that was a tongue in cheek post, although there was, as is the case with most of my posts, a grain of truth in it. I'm not really that right wing, more I just can't stand the left wing side of the political spectrum, so nonsensical (imo) >_<

    Australian Politics

    Never read this guys work before - he speaks of reason and logic, how rare for an SMH journalist. It's not like them to balanced, strange - espionage alert!

    Iran virgin prisoners raped for 'legal' executions

    Hidden amongst all of the above there is an ok point. There is an individual or two here who were happy to accept the 'confessions' of the Israeli soldiers in the other thread, but are doubting the allegations of these women in this thread. Not to mention Israel tho... continue fighting amongst...

    Nuclear Power?

    Worryingly, sometimes I feel myself drawn to Iron in a way that would make both of us uncomfortable. Srsly though <_< erm, disagree with the Nationals comment, I think as long as the left grow stronger, the right will become more extreme and in their own right, more popular as many become...

    Nuclear Power?

    Rudd lacks the balls. Simple as that. Hopefully Joe Hockey will take over the Liberal leadership so we can all vote for him. He'd have the cojones to stick it up the Greens.

    Nuclear Power?

    I want us to not only have nuclear energy, but nuclear weaponry so we can stop being China's bitch xD

    The Official Le Tour De France/Cycling Thread

    Just a shit team. I don't think I have seen Silence Lotto riding at the front of the peloton to aid in the pace making or to help Cadel once this tour.

    how long do u shower for?

    Only shower at night. Can't understand people who sleep in their day's sweat - yeuch. Also I miss the families rush for the shower in the morning as well this way :D I only shower for 3-5 mins most of the time.

    Should women be allowed to serve in the infantry?

    Only reason I can think of women not being allowed to serve in the front line is if; a) their presence caused a 'distraction' to what would probably still be a largely male dominated army. b) it caused tensions amongst the soldiers were a relationship to occur. if there's an only female part...

    Iran virgin prisoners raped for 'legal' executions

    Best be on your way! See you in a few months. That is, if you don't get arrested and thrown into jail where you'll probably be tortured. xD

    Amman revoking Palestinians' citizenship

    Done some research into some impartial sources. This figure is exaggerated according to the following source: Adding for natural extrapolation and a small but steady influx of refugees, the Palestinian population of Jordan would amount for just over 50% of the population, which is still a...
