The Songs of Robert Lloyd at Holy Trinity Church

MelbourneEast Arts Festival

Robert Lloyd has served the Australian and International Arts/Music world since 1986. Beginning in Adelaide he has travelled the world performing and composing his unique music and songs.

I have a couple of Robert’s albums but have seen little of him live so it was wonderful to be invited to see his performance at Holy Trinity Church in East Melbourne, a show that is part of the MelbourneEast Arts Festival.

President of Iceland Olafur Ragnar Grimsson identifies that it is a sane choice by nations to protect their democracies by simply allowing the banks to crash and default the payment of loans due to the IMF and simply rebuild their countries from the ground up.

After suffering IMF debts that were 10 times their national GDP, when the GFC hit, unlike Australia, Iceland's banks went crashing down in tune with the EU.

To take this idea of Crowd Sourced Democracy and apply it to Australia isn't as far fetched as we may think.

We all identify as Australians, whether from the far east, west, north or south, and every bit in the middle of this country. Our geological wealth is being sucked out of the country with relatively poor returns to the national coffers and our economy is tortured by global financial and economic organisations that would...

'POPCORN' under fire - at last!

It appears that Numan Haider, on the evidence we have been told, was indeed attempting to carry out an extreme act of violence, an emulation of the beheading atrocities that have occurred in Syria.

We need to keep our heads though; this is a terrible thing to think, but I firmly believe that there is no ‘foothold’ for terror in this country, it can’t start as a grass fire and consume us. There are just not enough of them to hold a fist and as we are the most tolerant country...

Many years ago I was the secretary of the Collingwood Football Club Bowling Club, formerly Northcote BC at the bottom of Rucker's Hill in Westgarth, when MacAlister and Petrie were the bosses at the Magpies (fun times) and at the time I had had a set of Maestros made for me by Henselite, Maskell reckoned they were the new thang, much better than my Drakes Specials he said. All sets of lawn bowls have insignias carved into them, I wanted my own original design and I had a huge male pot leaf pr...

Cyber War breaks out between China and the US

Shit has just gone a way tad crazier than it was 24 hours ago. About 2am AEST a massive barrage of hacking and direct attacks through various streams into many web portals like mysql and html elements. What you are seeing on the Norse map though is only 1% of the actual attacks as the data would overwhelm systems in their 8 million computers that are set up as bait for hackers around the globe. ...

Tiger Legend Bows Out

Growing up in Mentone and living right on Beach Road, seeing Tom Hafey running along the foreshore, up and down the cliff face, he was a terribly fit man.

As it turns out the last time I saw him running was at a fundraiser and talk he gave at the St Kilda City Football Club at the Peanut Farm club house. He told some rollicking tales, gave sage advice and had the local players and fans capture with his positivity. ...
