Qld Premier Bligh pledges to beef up Wild Rivers laws
by Jeni Bone on 28 Feb 2012
Anna Bligh Nicholson River System .. ©
Queensland Premier, Anna Bligh spent part of last week 'fishing for votes' in Far North Queensland, promising to protect more waterways under the Labor government's Wild Rivers laws.
After a fishing trip with members of a remote Cape York indigenous community, Bligh praised her party's environmental commitment and credentials and promised that, if re-elected, Labor would push ahead with plans to declare for protection eight additional Cape York river basins, including the Coleman River adjacent to Pormpuraaw, adding to the 13 Queensland river systems already listed.
'Without doubt this is some of the most beautiful country on earth and our job is to make sure we look after it well,' she told the throng of reporters who were more keen to see her land a fish.
The premier said the laws would be 'at risk' under a Liberal National Party government. 'You couldn't get a starker reason not to vote for Campbell Newman,' she warned.
She also pledged to work towards declarations for Cape York's Jeannie, Jacky Jacky, Ducie, Jardine and Holroyd rivers, along with the appointment of 50 more indigenous rangers by 2015.
Federal opposition leader Tony Abbott has previously vowed to overturn the state government's Wild Rivers laws, arguing that indigenous communities should have a greater say and economic opportunities.
The LNP, which is on track to win the March 24 state election, has also flagged a repeal of the Wild Rivers laws in Cape York.
Shadow environment Minister Andrew Powell said today the LNP was committed to protecting high conservation areas, balanced with appropriate economic development opportunities on the Cape.
Ms Bligh stressed that the laws, criticised for restricting indigenous economic opportunities, did not prevent all development on the rivers but only those that impacted on river flows.
The Premier, who was 'very disappointed' not to catch a fish when she went out on the Chapman River this morning, said the laws also did not remove fishing or grazing rights.
Lenny Ned, a senior ranger with the Wild Rivers program, said protection of the Coleman River system was important. He also said it was crucial that local indigenous communities were involved in the management of their rivers.

Are you cramming for an English final and don't have time to study all the classics of Western literature? Why not let Microsoft Word's AutoSummarize feature do the work for you? As a service to students, or anyone who doesn't have much reading time, I've compiled these one-page summaries of classic novels. Skim these and you'll be well-read in minutes!
We'll start with an epic maritime adventure. Herman Melville's Moby-Dick is regarded as one of the greatest novels of all time, and it yields one of the greatest summaries of all time as well.
or, THE WHALE
"Very like a whale." "Whales in the sea God's voice obey."
A shoal of Sperm Whales!
"Lost by a whale! THE WHALE NO FAMOUS AUTHOR, AND WHALING NO FAMOUS CHRONICLER? WHALING NOT RESPECTABLE? Whaling is imperial! NO DIGNITY IN WHALING?
A hot old man! There are whales hereabouts!
A white whale-did ye mark that, man? I. THE FOLIO WHALE; II. the OCTAVO WHALE; III. the DUODECIMO WHALE.
The SPERM WHALE; II. the RIGHT WHALE; III. the FIN-BACK WHALE; IV. the HUMP-BACKED WHALE; V. the RAZOR-BACK WHALE; VI. the SULPHUR-BOTTOM WHALE.
Among the fishermen, he is indiscriminately designated by all the following titles: The Whale; the Greenland Whale; the Black Whale; the Great Whale; the True Whale; the Right Whale. Broad-nosed whales and beaked whales; pike-headed whales; bunched whales; under-jawed whales and rostrated whales, are the fishermen's names for a few sorts.
If any of the following whales, shall hereafter be caught and marked, then he can readily be incorporated into this System, according to his Folio, Octavo, or Duodecimo magnitude:-The Bottle-Nose Whale; the Junk Whale; the Pudding-Headed Whale; the Cape Whale; the Leading Whale; the Cannon Whale; the Scragg Whale; the Coppered Whale; the Elephant Whale; the Iceberg Whale; the Quog Whale; the Blue Whale; etc. "What do ye do when ye see a whale, men?"
"A dead whale or a stove boat!"
"God bless ye, men. Horrible old man! white whale, shirr!
"Time! time!"
Terrible old man! "Ship ahoy! Have ye seen the White Whale?"
Jesu, what a whale! Pictures of Whaling Scenes.
The White Whale, the White Whale!"
All men live enveloped in whale-lines.
whale eat him, 'stead of him eat whale.
Oh, man!
Genius in the Sperm Whale? "WHAT whale?"
"The WHITE Whale-a Sperm Whale-Moby Dick, have ye seen him?
White Whale-no."
Ship, old ship! old Ahab! the White Whale; he'll nail ye! "Ship, ahoy! Hast seen the White Whale?"
"Hast seen the White Whale!"
the White Whale spouts thick blood!"
Old man of oceans! "Aye, aye, men!" cried Ahab. Pip jumped from the whale-boat. Captain Ahab! "Thank ye, man. "Hast seen the White Whale?"
Have ye seen a whale-boat adrift?"
"Hast seen the White Whale?"
Ahab turned.
Forty years of continual whaling! Is Ahab, Ahab? "Man the mast-heads! Boats, boats!"
Man, man! "Mark well the whale!-Ho! "The whale! the ship! "The whale, the whale! "The ship! "The ship?
TOTAL WRECK - crazy-eyed hound is covered in cobwebs, has a vespiary on back, graffiti on side and savage thirst for boat fuel. Frankly, I'm in over my head. He's in room 115 at Motel 6, yours free. 555-2851
Yes, it's the perfect form for surviving a car crash. But it's also the perfect form for so much more, like surviving the trauma of reading any news headline in 2016.
Thirty games and a novel piece of hardware for sixty dollars? This is an insult to my honor.
Selling objects to the past, lighters, weed, etc. Pretty intriguing stuff.
Title of this one pretty much says it all. If it's what you're looking for, then uh, look no further

A very worthy part 2 of the trilogy.
on July 9, 2004
This movie is good on several counts. First, it may be the third installment in the Brave Little Toaster trilogy, but it's obviously intended to be inserted between the original and "Mars," to tie together the Master's departure for college and his marriage to Chris/fatherhood to Rob, Jr. in "Mars." That development seemed to come much too soon, leaving us to wonder just what occurred in between. This movie carries a wonderful message about animals and their rights, focusing rather heavily on a snake named Mergatroid, a devoted white mother cat named Maisie, a disaffected rat named Ratzo, an elderly ape named Sebastian, and a sweet Chihuahua named Alberto. Despite the fact that the film often borders on corny, with "animals in danger" for some reason flashing on the computer screen when they're taken away by the evil Mack, to be shipped to a lab, the music in this movie isn't too bad, considering it's a sequel. We're introduced to some new appliances as well; a modem, female computer, some printers, a security camera in the police Dobermans' pen. On the whole, the main characters retain their personalities true enough to form, but don't have quite enough funny or poignant lines to allow this to come close to matching its original. Not that anything ever could. This is a worthy sequel. The Master is studying to be a veterinarian, a suitable profession. The interaction of appliances and animals is interesting.
Oh, and let's not forget Wittgenschtein, the old super-computer! This movie was obviously planned before "Mars," because it explains how he came to live in the museum. Brian Doyle-Murray does a great job as the voice of this funny, nice guy. And it's a touching moment when Radio sacrifices his own WFC-11-12-55 tube to save him. The Toaster hasn't been the only brave one throughout these movies. The others have done some pretty brave things themselves.
Overall, not a bad sequel. Cheesier than the first, it might not satisfy older viewers, but the younger ones should find most of it cute if nothing else.

Disney's animal rights message?
A customer
on August 11, 2003
I was enjoying this movie until I noticed that part of the plot involves villains stealing animals to be sold to an animal research lab (that Toaster and his friends rescue). This not only perpetuates the myth that scientists walk the streets trying to steal your pet for experimentation, but conveys the message that animal experimentation is wrong. If you are are an animal rights supporter, then this movie is for you and your kid. Instead, if you support the responsible and humane use of animals in medical research avoid this movie at all cost.
I can't believe Disney's writers didn't notice the underlying message in this movie. I can only conclude this represents their opinion on the subject. Very sad.

Radio to the Rescue
Sandra Mandelis
on March 10, 2003
Format: VHS Tape
Taking place when the master Rob is finishing his university thesis, this is the second installment in the Toaster saga. As a discerning teenage fan of the Toaster series, I was expecting this to be a crass, contrived money grab capitalizing on the first two movies that were based on Thomas M. Disch's books.
Well, I was wrong. This movie probably does have the weakest plot line of all the Toaster movies, but the themes of friendship, teamwork and caring for animals are well illustrated. The songs are fun and the animation is much better than the cover art would lead you to believe (esp. in the song about the internet).
My only complaint is only that the story focusses more on the animals than I would have liked to see. The Toaster takes less of a role in this movie than Radio! It was nice however to see the usual cruel and sarcastic Radio following the example of Toaster.
If your kids liked the other Toaster movies, they will most likely enjoy this one too. And for those of you like me who used to watch the first one over and over again when you were 6, you'll find yourself smiling as you watch this one too.

The only Toaster sequel worth watching
A customer
on March 7, 2003
Format: VHS Tape
Like many other grown-ups who are kids at heart, I am a big fan of the Brave Little Toaster. For the completely uninitiated, it's a series about anthropomorphic appliances, and other mechanical things (are computers and streetlamps and giant evil magnets etc. really "appliances"?), who come to life a la the "Toy Story" toys when people aren't around. For good measure, traditional Disney-style anthropomorphic animals are included in a bit part in the original movie, and in "Rescue" the animals can talk and are in effect the "human" equals of the appliances.
For some bizarre reason known only to Disney and whoever else produced the Toaster movies, "To the Rescue" was released AFTER the other direct-to-video sequel, "The Brave Little Toaster Goes To Mars." So "Rescue" is often referred to as the third chapter in the series, or Toaster III, etc. But as should be pretty obvious to anyone who has watched all three movies and paid minimal attention to the plot, "Rescue" is clearly the SECOND chapter in the series, with events taking place directly after the theatrical release. In the original movie, Rob McGroaty, the "master" of the appliances, is going away to college. In "Rescue," he's a college senior wrapping up his thesis (titled "The Secret Life of Animals," humorously enough... oh, how little Rob knows!) in veterinary medicine. In the god-awful bad "Mars" movie, Rob has married longtime girlfriend Chris and is an established veterinarian with a baby on the way.
I don't think that "Rescue" is on the level of the original movie, but it's definitely worth a look. (When it comes out on DVD, I think I'll actually buy it!) Its failings could best be described, I think, as "sloppiness." Whereas the first movie was pretty groundbreaking with the totally non-organic cast, who were NOT familiar, human-shaped playthings like the Toy Story toys, in the 10+ years between the original and its sequels the producers must have realized that Hey, kids love the Toaster, so why not make their parents buy some slapped-together sequels!?
Despite some jokes and references clearly meant for adults - nothing DIRTY, people, so chill out - and some songs that are actually pretty good, "Rescue" has a slap-dash feel to it, with TV cartoon-quality (as opposed to movie-quality) animation, and plot holes you could drive a truck through. Or maybe, I should say plot *discrepancies.* (Grown-ups use big words, you know!) Once you get over silliness like Rob losing a 600 page thesis due a power outage - he typed the entire thing in one sitting, without saving to disk ONCE?! - or the notion that Eville animal vivisection people will pay lots of dough to acquire any old collection of miscellaneous animals, there's an enjoyable and even exciting story to be found, very much in the spirit of the original movie. Unlike "Mars," which totally runs off the rails with its cockamamie stupidity and creepy extension of human sentience to seemingly everything (like balloons, yikes!!), "Rescue"'s shortcomings never threaten to tank the whole movie.
Aside from the appliances saving some cute talking animals, "Rescue" brings Radio, Lampy, Kirby and the gang into the Information Age. In the first movie, "high-tech" is pretty much synonymous with evil, with the "evil appliances" at Rob's parents' apartment (who have replaced the old gang left at the summer cabin) singing their hilarious "cutting edge of technology" song, infomercial-style. "Rescue" carries over the stern disapproval of rampant consumerism, and also acknowledges that even "cutting edge" machines are quickly abandoned by the always-looking-for-something-better masses.
By way of a crash course in modern technology, singing and dancing computers, servers, and modems perform a musical number ("Information Superhighway") for the benefit of Rob's elderly appliances. It's a catchy, goofy tune, and yet it has a genuinely moving message about the power of the internet to bring isolated people into a larger community. Even more affectingly, this song is reprised by an abandoned pre-transistor (1st gen) computer that Rob's appliances discover in the university basement.
The abandoned computer - named Wittgenstein, as in the polymath philosopher for some unexplained reason - is actually one of the highlights of the movie. Wittgenstein has, hands down, the best songs, and the sub-plot to bring him a new part helps prevent the movie from being all about the cuddly wittle animals and what a dweeb Rob is. "Rescue" eschews much of the emotionally tough material of the first movie, and as such I expected that every character who needed to be rescued or repaired in some way would get help, but I was still very happy to see Wittgenstein (Brian Doyle Murray, in one of his better voice roles IMO) get his due. Not to mention, it's refreshing to see a NON-EVIL sentient computer for once! :)
Alack, the comically brilliant Jon Lovitz does not return to reprise his role as Radio, my favorite character, but his replacement is pretty good. And the voice of Tony the Tiger (I'm not going to try to spell his name) happily returns as Kirby the vacuum cleaner. If you haven't seen the original Toaster, go rent or buy it ASAP! If you like the Toaster, chances are you'll like this sequel as well.

In this article we will test and review the NVIDIA GeForce 3D Vision stereo kit. NVIDIA teamed up with Samsung to optionally bundle 120 Hz LCD monitors with their all new 3D stereo shutter glasses technology. NVIDIA on their end got driver support up and going to a state where it's really good. Next to that, they redesigned the approach to the overall gaming experience. A set of shutter glasses that is wireless and rechargeable, games that are supported in the new drivers will automatically kick in 3D mode and next to that, NVIDIA really wanted a cool looking kit.

- ^ The US, France and Great Britain have code-named their test events, while the USSR and China did not, and therefore have only test numbers (with some exceptions – Soviet peaceful explosions were named). Word translations into English in parentheses unless the name is a proper noun. A dash followed by a number indicates a member of a salvo event. The US also sometimes named the individual explosions in such a salvo test, which results in "name1 – 1(with name2)". If test is canceled or aborted, then the row data like date and location discloses the intended plans, where known.
- ^ To convert the UT time into standard local, add the number of hours in parentheses to the UT time; for local daylight saving time, add one additional hour. If the result is earlier than 00:00, add 24 hours and subtract 1 from the day; if it is 24:00 or later, subtract 24 hours and add 1 to the day. All historical timezone data are derived from here:
- ^ Rough place name and a latitude/longitude reference; for rocket-carried tests, the launch location is specified before the detonation location, if known. Some locations are extremely accurate; others (like airdrops and space blasts) may be quite inaccurate. "~" indicates a likely pro-forma rough location, shared with other tests in that same area.
- ^ Elevation is the ground level at the point directly below the explosion relative to sea level; height is the additional distance added or subtracted by tower, balloon, shaft, tunnel, air drop or other contrivance. For rocket bursts the ground level is "N/A". In some cases it is not clear if the height is absolute or relative to ground, for example, Plumbbob/John. No number or units indicates the value is unknown, while "0" means zero. Sorting on this column is by elevation and height added together.
- ^ Atmospheric, airdrop, balloon, gun, cruise missile, rocket, surface, tower, and barge are all disallowed by the Partial Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. Sealed shaft and tunnel are underground, and remained useful under the PTBT. Intentional cratering tests are borderline; they occurred under the treaty, were sometimes protested, and generally overlooked if the test was declared to be a peaceful use.
- ^ Include weapons development, weapon effects, safety test, transport safety test, war, science, joint verification and industrial/peaceful, which may be further broken down.
- ^ Designations for test items where known, "?" indicates some uncertainty about the preceding value, nicknames for particular devices in quotes. This category of information is often not officially disclosed.
- ^ Estimated energy yield in tons, kilotons, and megatons. A ton of TNT equivalent is defined as 4.184 gigajoules (1 gigacalorie).
- ^ Radioactive emission to the atmosphere aside from prompt neutrons, where known. The measured species is only iodine-131 if mentioned, otherwise it is all species. No entry means unknown, probably none if underground and "all" if not; otherwise notation for whether measured on the site only or off the site, where known, and the measured amount of radioactivity released.

- ^ Number of tests which would have been in violation of the Partial Test Ban Treaty of 1963, such as atmospheric, space or underwater tests. Some "peaceful use" cratering tests which should have been violations were protested, and later quietly dropped.

Breaking: Teenaged Tibetan sets self on fire, Sixth self-immolation in last three days
[Wednesday, November 28, 2012 15:27]
Tibetan self-immolator Sangay Tashi in an undated photo.
DHARAMSHALA, November 28: In confirmed reports coming out of Tibet, a teenaged Tibetan set himself on fire in an apparent protest against China's continued occupation of Tibet on Tuesday, November 27 in Sangchu region of eastern Tibet.
Sources have identified the young Tibetan man as Sangay Tashi from Sangkhog Ngyulre region of Sangchu in Labrang, eastern Tibet.
"Sangay Tashi, 18, set himself on fire at around 12 midnight Tuesday, November 27 in Sangkhog town," an exiled Tibetan monk Sonam told Phayul citing contacts in the region. "He passed away at the site of his protest."
According to other sources, Sangay Tashi shouted slogans calling for the return of His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the release of all Tibetan political prisoners, including the 11th Panchen Lama, while engulfed in flames. Local Tibetans then carried his charred body to a nearby house.
Sangay Tashi arrived in Sangkhog town earlier that day with his friends. Before setting himself on fire, he reportedly called one of his relatives and told him that he had decided to set himself on fire for the cause of Tibet. Before his relative could carry on the conversation, Sangay Tashi hung up the phone and switched it off.
By the time Sangay Tashi's family members arrived in Sangkhog, he had already carried out his self-immolation protest.
Sangay Tashi is survived by his parents and four siblings. He had studied at a primary school in Sangkhog town for four years but was forced to return home to help in family chores.
Sangay Tashi carried out his fiery protest at the main street of Sangkog town, the same place where
Thubwang Kyab
, 23, passed away in his self-immolation protest on October 26.
Six self-immolations in the last three days have pushed the number of Tibetan self-immolators to 87 inside Tibet, since the wave of fiery protests began in 2009. The recent alarming escalation in the protests has now witnessed 25 Tibetans set themselves on fire in the month of November alone, demanding freedom and the return of His Holiness the Dalai Lama from exile.
Speaking to a reporter in south India, the Dalai Lama last week said that the ongoing wave of self-immolations inside Tibet brings tears to his eyes.
"As Deng Xiaoping said, 'Seek truth from facts' and act accordingly. What's happening is very sad; it brings tears to my eyes," the Dalai Lama said. "People are not doing this because they are drunk or have family problems, but because they live in constant fear."

Avana is a wonderful medication that I was lucky enough to find. I first faced problems with erection about 5 years ago. A bit early for a man of my age, but probably that was the result of my sedentary way of life or bad heredity. You know I can't say for sure as I can't come to my father and directly ask 'Dad have you had problems with erection at my age?' We do not have such conversations, not in our family. So when I encountered erectile dysfunction I went to a doctor to get help. The doctor first prescribed me with milder drugs, he even offered me to try first different herbal supplements but that is not a solution in my case. Such medications provide absolutely no effect on my potency and I simply continue to suffer. So I asked my doc for something stronger with a more obvious effect and then he advised me to try this new Avana. According to him the medication is very effective and due to its specific structure the effect is seen considerable sooner as with other drugs. And indeed I?m absolutely happy with Avana. It allowed me forget about my sexual problems. I just take a pill when I need to be sure of my sexual performance and in 15 minutes I am ready to surprise and astonish. What is also very important I do not have the side effect many of my friends complain of: fatigue, blurred vision, blood pressure shifts and so on. May be this is just specifics of my body, but for me Avana is the perfect ED solution. I would definitely recommend it to other men with potency problems.

Meet the Beatles: A Cultural History of the Band That Shook Youth, Gender, and the World (Paperback)
Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
Rob Sheffield, the Rolling Stone columnist and bestselling author of Love Is a Mix Tape, offers an entertaining, unconventional look at the most popular band in history, the Beatles, exploring what they mean today and why they still matter so intensely to a generation that has never known a world without them.
Meet the Beatles is not another biography of the Beatles, or a song-by-song analysis of the best of John and Paul. It isn t another expose about how they broke up. It isn t a history of their gigs or their gear. It is a collection of essays telling the story of what this ubiquitous band means to a generation who grew up with the Beatles music on their parents stereos and their faces on T-shirts. What do the Beatles mean today? Why are they more famous and beloved now than ever? And why do they still matter so much to us, nearly fifty years after they broke up?
As he did in his previous books, Love is a Mix Tape, Talking to Girls About Duran Duran, and Turn Around Bright Eyes, Sheffield focuses on the emotional connections we make to music. This time, he focuses on the biggest pop culture phenomenon of all time The Beatles. In his singular voice, he explores what the Beatles mean today, to fans who have learned to love them on their own terms and not just for the sake of nostalgia.
Meet the Beatles tells the story of how four lads from Liverpool became the world's biggest pop group, then broke up but then somehow just kept getting bigger. At this point, their music doesn t belong to the past it belongs to right now. This book is a celebration of that music, showing why the Beatles remain the world's favorite thing and how they invented the future we re all living in today.
