    Mobile detection cameras to start crackdown on delinquent drivers

    It's well past the time that road rules were benchmarked nationally. However it seems common sense can never be benchmarked nationally - some people were "born slow" and no amount of regulation will stop them from what they wish to do, and when and how they wish to do it. The fines are not high...

    Mystery brands quietly invade shelves as supermarkets create this stealthy move

    I bought Vevelle a year ago because they are lovely facial tissues, and tried them because of the price. You'd be fortunate today to get them 10 cents cheaper than Kleenex. Kleenex at COLES: $2.60 Kleenex at Blooms Chemist: $2.50 Panamax 100: $2.99 Blooms also give a Rewards discount, which is...

    Australians Beware: The Shocking Dangers of the New Anti-Speeding System Revealed!

    Greg, obviously we mix in different circles. Fiat currency has just about done its job. The US economy is $35 TRILLION in debt and still printing $1 Trillion every 100 days. Unsustainable. And that is the reason for current inflation and Cost of Living issues. Janet Yellen (United States...

    Yes. I have watched a lot of Top Gear episodes. Those guys don't speed (or do they?) :unsure: :ROFLMAO:

    In the future is could be used to generate revenue. eg when you come across roadworks, you are required to slow to 40kph max. If you are slowing, but not decellerating quickly enough, your car could potentially send a text to the nearest 5G node, and generate "$309 and 1 demerit point for...

    Australians Beware: The Shocking Dangers of the New Anti-Speeding System Revealed!

    This already being implemented. Newcastle, NSW is designated a Smart City. They are well-advanced in implementing what is called IoT technology - The Internet of Things. Sounds harmless ... right? Well I read the 37 pages of the Newcastle City Council's abstract of benefits, and I was more than...

    Double trouble: Health experts issue warnings about two rapid virus outbreaks happening worldwide

    As far as I can see, there is reluctance to conduct this kind of research - too expensive, and the outcome could not be trusted. Why? It might be difficult to find 10,000 random people who could be classified as "certainly inbiased." Some might have a friend, or relative affected - even as...

    Double trouble: Health experts issue warnings about two rapid virus outbreaks happening worldwide

    0.21% and given that the world was told (and saw) how savage the original Delta virus was, there was little option but to use what they had. Hindsight revealed what couldn't be known at the time. I still have some reservations, but have opened up a little now. More reading ...

    Man under police custody after allegedly stabbing two people at Woolworths

    Deni67 After I wrote back to your post, I thought my words were mean and uncaring, and I am sorry for what you went through as a youngster. I can't imagine having my childhood wrecked by splitting up siblings, then living with the guilt that your mother didn't choose you first. Lots of issues. I...

    My card had three numbers plus the star centre. I am deeply hurt and discouraged. :ROFLMAO: :cautious::sneaky: Not a single number yesterday, and one number Tuesday. Two numbers today. Nothing aligned. In fact my numbers trace a path that only a drunk could follow! This was supposed to be...

    Rob44 Thanks for the discourse and cordiality ... to coin a word perhaps) ;) Thanks too for the link to SciTechDaily.com Some great stuff in there. Has the potential to drag me away from a lot of the other rubbish I seem to get involved with. Would also like to apologise for my defensiveness. I...

    Double trouble: Health experts issue warnings about two rapid virus outbreaks happening worldwide

    You seem to have added a few words there - we call it putting words in people's mouths. The Covid Vaccinations are just warming up. The numbers of excess deaths is testimony to it. Health staticians want to hide these deaths, so have instigated a new way of measuring "baseline." What they have...

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10663976/ You wouldn't have read the stuff I read that is helpful, Rob44, because you are stuck in your self-belief, whereas there are many sources of remedies that are recommended by NIH Published papers.

    Double trouble: Health experts issue warnings about two rapid virus outbreaks happening worldwide

    @Rob44 said: " ... both of those vaccine-related inflammations generally subside in a few weeks ..." You might like to check on Myocarditis that is vax-related, or from ANY cause. The illness is from 5 years to life in my understanding. It is a serious life-threatening condition. I suppose...

    Man under police custody after allegedly stabbing two people at Woolworths

    So much in your head. Nothing in your heart. Just a big blob of pride and ego. God doesn't care where you were brought up, or who your parents were, or what your morality is, or what you have studied. All man made garbage in the light of the end of your life. What will count then is whether you...
