Damn Dams, Unique University, Chinese Classes
So the Traveston DAM on the Mary RIVER in Queensland will not now go-ahead. Peter Garrett, the Australian Federal Minister for burning beds and Funny Dances has over-ruled Queensland Premier Anna Bligh. I love LABOR politicians when they squabble.
I have finally decided to engage in further studies. I enrolled in Bachelor of General studies offered by Griffith University and OUA. The Open University Australia (OUA) is a collection of traditional universities that work together to provide an online facility offering great degree level courses. The 2 initial subjects I have enrolled in are PAC11 (Globalisation in Asia Pacific) and Modern Mandarin 1A.
I got all my Study Period 1 (Semester) Modern Mandarin materials yesterday . There is a lot of learning, but it is nothing I can not handle. When I feel confident enogh with the language I may start a few Chinese language posts.
American Political Decisions
The main trouble with American politics is not the politicians. It is the AMERICAN PEOPLE, they continue to elect Wealthy IDIOTS, Ex-Actors and Supposed Football heroes instead of people with ability.
American People are also to blame for your abysmal education system, Egocentric attitudes that AMERICA is always the Biggest, Best, Brashest doesn’t help. It is time to realise that USA needs to actually be taught some home truths.
Newsflash
Not all Americans have a GOOD education.
Not all Americans have a GOOD job.
Not all Americans have good health care.
Not all Americans get a FAIR deal from idiotic governments.
America has a MASSIVE National DEBT. It is far from being the wealthiest country.
America does not need to meddle in international politics, when it has no effective internal political structure.
BUT the Biggest Home TRUTH.
AMERICA is not the BOSS of the WORLD.
USA is NOT the only country in the world.
In 1776 Americans rose up in revolution to fight the oppressive political system and control of the IDIOTS (British Monarchy) in control at that time.
Now the only thing Americans do is whinge on the internet via blogs, forums and chatrooms or listen to idiot TV/RADIO shows like Larry King. Instead join a politic party or interest group. Be proactive not complacent. Remember the famous Abraham Lincoln speech at Gettysburg does not mention POLITICIANS

Immigration and International removals
INTERNATIONAL REMOVALS
In my last post I gave several reasons why immigration to Australia had advantages for online commerce site owners being hassled by various authorities for their activities. since then I have had some of my overseas friends contacting me and saying that they are seriously considering the option. I decided to investigate for them the procedures needed to facilitate the shift.
Issues like passports, visas, work permits, housing are easily handled by most people via official Government sites,the only issue that isn’t is the international removals process. The hassles start with decisions about what belongings should be left behind, sold off, or given away. After deciding the amount of belongings being taken to your new home in a different country, then comes the hassles associated with international removals. International removals involves more than just a couple dozen cardboard boxes, bubble wrap and some duct tape. There often is a need for a shipping container or several wooden crates for the big items like furniture and white goods. Then there is also the problem ensuring adequate padding and coverings for the various items. Another problem is sealing against vermin during the journey. Custom declarations and insurance valuations for some items often require several days to arrange.
The usage of companies specialising in international removals in a professional manner will make all these and any other problems disappear. The ease of shifting using these companies makes what would be a total hassle into a pleasant business transaction. Hopefully the information provided by me to my overseas friends will see several making the big jump to becoming an Australian resident. In the past International removals ensured enough hassles that would have seen me not recommending it to anyone. Now with the use of professional international removals companies, I would recommend it to anyone thinking of shifting from one country to another.
