Australian Politics: Kevin Rudd Defeats Julia Gillard in a Caucus

Former Prime Minister, for now Minister, but soon will be again the 27th Prime Minister of Australia. In a spill caucus meeting in the Australian Labor Party tonight at 7 P.M. E.ST. time, the party voted that the ex Prime Minister Kevin Rudd should return as the party leader, and become Prime Minister. Three years ago, the same caucus, with a few different ministers, knifed him in the back and ousted him as the sitting Prime Minister. 

Speculation continues as to who will become Deputy Prime Minister of Australia, and Rudd's new chief of staff, and possibly even a new front bench. 

The Purge, G8 Summit and the Stolen Superbowl Ring Saga!

Recently I was doing my usual internet rounds, when I came across a new movie named the Purge. Quickly, I typed it up on google and opened up the wikipedia article on it. The movie is about a futuristic dystopian United States, in which for twelve hours a year all crime besides killing top level government officials is perfectly legal. Shocked and fascinated at the time, I started to fantasise about all the girls, money and power I could have. I watched the trailer, and then reality started pouring back into my dream world. I mean seriously, crime being legal for twelve hours. I wonder...

"George what do you plan to do this year during the purge."
"The usual sis, I'm going to rape you 10 times, cut you up and then kill you."
"George, don't be silly. Your father would kill you."
"Sis, don't you get it, he's going to rape you too."

"What are you plans for the purge, Jessica."
"Well, I'm going to lock myself away in a hidden place so no one can find me, armed with a 9 millimetre pistol."
"Do you mean this pistol?" !!BANG!!

If the United States ever was to implement this law in, personally I would leave the country, because it is sickening. I might actually go to Russia, seeing how there a much friendly and freer country than the U.S. is now. Did you guys hear about how the NSA leaker is being charged with espionage. Typical. You can't do anything these days without being arrested in the U.S., there so uptight with everything...

"Jacob, what are you doing?"
"I'm going to the toilet."
"No your not, the rules say that you have to ask thirty minutes ahead of time."
"Oh Mrs Matthews, please!"
"Don't say another word. Your punishment is having to pee your pants whilst the whole class watches you. Yes, up there. In front of the class. Thats right. Now pee."

Talking about breaking the rules, did you here about the Russian President. He stole the Superbowl Ring! You just can't do that. Sure, you can invade Afghanistan and Vietnam. You can make Nuclear Weapons and imprison nosy journalists, but you cannot steal the Superbowl ring. The G8 summit just took place recently, and I would wonder what Barack would have said when he saw the Ring.

"Heey Putin Bro, whats happening homee!"
"I am fine Mr Obama, how are you?"
"I'm buggin around driving my benz. How's the Motha Land bro?"
"It is going very well Mr Oba... Give me my ring back!"
"Woaaah, there's no beef between us bro. But what are you doing with a superbowl ring."
"It is mine so give it back now, Mr Obama."

Nonetheless, I think all we learnt from that is Mr Putin's english is much better than Barack Obamas. But that being so, how did he come across the ring. I no for a fact he hasn't been in a Superbowl, and no one sold it to him. So its settled. The KGB took it. There can be no other reasonable scenario. In between assassinating top government officials and stealing secrets from the Apollo program, the KGB mounted a highly secret program. What else could it be?

The Mother of all Cancer Cures - To block The CD47 Cell.

Researchers might have found the Holy Grail in the war against cancer, a miracle drug that has killed every kind of cancer tumor it has come in contact with.

The drug works by blocking a protein called CD47 that is essentially a "do not eat" signal to the body's immune system, according to Science Magazine.

This protein is produced in healthy blood cells but researchers at Stanford University found that cancer cells produced an inordinate amount of the protein thus tricking the immune system into not destroying the harmful cells.

With this observation in mind, the researchers built an antibody that blocked cancer's CD47 so that the body's immune system attacked the dangerous cells.

So far, researchers have used the antibody in mice with human breast, ovary, colon, bladder, brain, liver and prostate tumors transplanted into them. 
In each of the cases the antibody forced the mice's immune system to kill the cancer cells.

Jiroemon Kimura - Oldest living man in history dies

Today I was informed by the internet, in particular my daily rounds at wikipedia that the worlds oldest man died. I no its sad, yes, that someone dies but come on. Seriously, when he was a kid people didn't live to a third of his age. I mean come on, what is this crap. I was looking for serious information. I don't just go onto the internet looking for nothing. I mean he took me off my baby cat searching time of the day, I mean who the hell cares. Well I do suppose hell is caring right now, because there's a 50-50 chance he's going there now.
Trust me people, I have friends In very high places, well in this case low places but you get the idea. 

Right now, heaven and hell are playing poker trying to decide who gets this man. And let me tell you something, what your thinking is wrong. There not playing for who gets him because they want him, there playing for who gets stuck with him. Talking about who where stuck with, how about Hassan Rouhani. Recently he was elected as the next president of Iran. During his campaign to become president he promised to close the ties between with the U.S. and Iran, return to negotiating on nuclear weapons and also to reform the country.

I do of course wonder what he means by close "ties" with the U.S. Is he referring to giving Google and Facebook a free roam around the countries internet. If so, many would consider this a pre-emptive strike as the N.S.A. scandal continues. Can anyone expect any privacy in the world. Now I am forced to stop watching porn on my phone at work, and move my you-no-what out the way of my laptops webcam whenever I'm going at it. COME ON! Can't anyone get some privacy in the world.

"No of course not. Where do you think you are, Mars?"

"No I'm not in Mars, I'm in Iran!"

Optical Illusions

Stare at this photo for 30 seconds, and then look at a light coloured surface. You will be surprised with what you see. :)

Myths that are believed today from famous Wars.

America single handedly won World War 2. Captain America saved the world. Hitler was an evil genius. Russians are stupid! The Civil War gave blacks more rights. Winston Churchill was a hero. Did the CIA invent crack cocaine, and distribute it to black people.

If you grew up during the cold war era in Mainland United States, this myth would have been taught to you extensively during your school years. That America, with help from there minion allied forces, drove out the Germans, Italians and Japanese soldiers from their offensive, to a defensive posture once they entered the war. This could be no further from the truth. While there is merit in the argument that America did the most in World War 2, they did not win it by themselves. It took them three years to enter the war, which by that time most of the Axis powers were on a defines. Sure, the U.S. slayed Japan in the Pacific Theatre of WW2, and have an important role in ending World War 2, without Russia defeating the Germans in the European Theatre, the war may have been lost. The truth is that Germany was inventing Nuclear weapons, which could have been used against the allied forces more ruthlessly than the U.S. used them.

Adolf Hitler, the mastermind behind Nazi Germany's success. His ideas were flawed, his reasoning was illogical, he was more luck than brains. Hitler failed his entrance exam to art school, which is like a Athlete failing track; and his war efforts were made with the help with all of his generals. He was no genius, and had someone kept him in jail longer, or been killed in World War 2, I'm sure World War 2 would have found some way of surfacing into society.

Taught by American elementary teachers, as to bolster moral among there citizens during the Cold War, Russians are stupid! Battle of Moscow onwards shows the tactical savviness of the Soviet Union. There operations encircle forces, use the pincer offensives perfectly, destroy enemy lines, kill their armies and defeat the enemy. People think Russians are stupid, because they get drunk a lot. But when people celebrate victories, people get drunk, and because of all of there victories in WW2, they got drunk... A lot.

The Civil war was fought between the north and south in North America, mainland U.S. One major driving force, was the overwhelming majority of people in the north who wanted to abolish slavery, compared to the south who wanted it to stay. The north one, the south lost, and blacks were no longer slaves. Yet, they still were not treated the same. Many were blamed for the costly war that cost many American lives, others were still discriminated for the skin colour. It was only until after "To Kill a Mockingbird", the Vietnam War and "I believe" speech did equality become the law.

“People generally see what they look for, and hear what they listen for." ~ Harper Lee, To Kill A Mockingbird. 

Winston Churchill fought off the dangerous Germans, or at least kept them at bay, while they were air raided and bombed by night. Still they managed to build a good airforce, and keep England reasonably safe. It was only after WW2 ended, did the public realise that they didn't want this maniac and crazy person as there leader during peace time. They didn't want another war, let alone with the Soviet Union, who would have crushed them. Operation Unthinkable, which plan a: included launching a pre-emptive strike against there so called ally during WW2. Realising the lunacy of plans like this, the Admirals and Generals denied this request, and the English public booted him. Still, more than a half a century later people still consider him an inspiration while other people no him as a barking mad Prime Minister.

No The CIA did not invent crack cocaine, and they most certainly did not distribute it to the black community. The Kerry Committee found that Congress provided aid to the Contras, who were a rebel group, as aid, but they used the money to fund drug operations. In 1996 the Dark Alliance series spared national controversy, fuelling the myth and story. His website hit 1.3 million hits per day. Gary Webb, the journalist involved in this firestorm alleged that these crack sales increase came from CIA funded Contras. He never said that the CIA was directly involved in this, wether or not his accusations implied that point exactly. Paranoid people, and conspiracy nuts eat these stories up, but the fact is is that there is no basis for these accusations, and even if the Contras were involved, the CIA didn't fund crack cocaine developments directly, and they definitely didn't target the distribution at the black community.

First Post

As this is my first post on this blog, I don't intend to raise any topics in great detail today, but to give some insight into myself.

My name is Josh, and I love all technology. I am a huge fanatic of new technology, demanding the best quality with all my products. My humour, is something I love to. Joking about serious topics I find reduces anxiety and helps depression. Doctor Hibbert from the Simpsons has taught us that laughter helps even the hardest of situations. I love to debate, especially current world topics and historically significant events and never lose. Anyone who says otherwise doesn't no what they're talking about. ;)
