Aussies ignore Bali warning
2008-10-08 17:11:00 Australians are flocking to the resort island in droves, despite the Australian government maintaining its travel advisory warning tourists against visiting Indonesia. The US government recently lifted its travel warning for Indonesia, saying the security climate in the country no longer warrants such a warning. Balinese tourism operators say the time has come for Australia to follow ...
Bali in favour with Aussies
2008-10-08 17:11:00 Last year, 204,473 Australians visited Bali, up from 137,000 in 2006. Only the Japanese outstrip us in their enthusiasm for the beautiful island. If that kind of growth continues, then 2008 will beat the 2004 record of 267,500. But while Australian tourists have confidence in Bali, our Government does not and this is causing angst among a ...
Team USA Squeezes by the Aussies!
2008-08-05 20:07:00 Team USA beat Australia in a surprisingly close 87-76 exhibition game. Australia was really in it for all four quarters and they did it all without top NBA draft pick Andrew Bogut (ankle injury). I was impressed by young guard Patrick Mills, he's a small, speedy guy who p could make a lot of noise.The Australian offense seemed to be better than any other team they faced. With Bogut playing, this team could have had it in single digits. The first couple of quarters were the worst for the US, but in the second, LeBron James went on an onslaught and gave the USA a nice cushion. It seemed that the Aussies always had another run in them.Based on this game I would say that they have a lot to work on. Constant intensity on both ends is not there, half court execution is not there and I want to see a real conserted effort for 40 minutes. The first game for the US is on Sunday against China. I hope they come out and prove that they are better than the way they played today.

Public Transport: Aussies whinge too
2008-04-18 00:57:00 Picture the scene. You're on a long, late night train ride out of the city back to the sticks. You've been shifting about in your seat for ages trying to find a comfy snoozing position. You're now on your third seat because this one doesn't involve you having to pull your head back onto your shoulders after it's lolled off. You're just drifting off nicely when suddenly, a gruff aussie voice shocks you back into consciousness by shouting, "Which station are you getting off at?" before moving off to the next carriage to repeat the question. This is the standard procedure practised by Queensland Rail (QR) conductors every evening on the Brisbane to Nambour service. They go along the whole train, writing down everybody's destinations. They do it so they don't have to stop at all the stations and can practice breaking their own rail speed record in getting to the other end. God help you if you're unfortunate enough to be waiting to get on at any of these optional-ised stations. ...

Fellow Aussies (An Alba) Honor Heath At NYC Australia Day

While Jessica didn't have Cash by her side on the red carpet, Julian gladly took over her arm and baby bump duty. Among other statements honoring Heath, New York Consul-General John Olsen read a stirring statement from Ledger's father. He said, "Heath is and always will be an Australian...He adored his home. His last two weeks with us over Christmas in Perth were just bliss...Heath did not become an actor for the fame or fortune. He just loved his craft and he loved helping his friends...He loved chess and skateboarding too...My image of Heath in New York is him with his skateboard, a canvas bag and beanie...That was Heath."

One in five adult Aussies don't get enough sleep
2008-01-10 11:59:00 A new survey by Sydney sleep specialists has revealed that almost one in five Australians don't get adequate sleep, and that older people are the most likely to experience chronic daytime sleepiness. According to the study, 18 per cent of adults sleep less than 6.5 hours a night and 12 per cent suffer from extreme and persistent sleepiness during the day. Looking at the findings of the survey, researchers at the Woolcock Institute of Medical Research have warned that this level of chronic sleep restriction is likely to be having a ‘significant influence on public health in Australia’. To collate the nation's first detailed population-based description of the typical sleep behaviour, sleep satisfaction and sleepiness of Australians, more than 3300 NSW residents were interviewed for the survey. The findings revealed that adults slept an average of 7.25 hours a night on weekdays, increasing to 7.5 hours a night at the weekend. The rate...

The Aussies know something about profiting from our senior citizens
2008-01-09 01:19:00 Today I read that Australian investors are doing big business in the senior's housing market. The reason why should be obvious, but my question is, are Americans also positioning themselves for the profit that will inevitably come from senior oriented businesses?The Aussies aren't doing so well by just luck. Perhaps they know, and we do too, that in the not so distant future our baby boomers will present an opportunity where some money may be made. Ask yourself which products the baby boomers will be using from now on, and then invest in those products. The same goes for real estate. The demand will only increase for senior living communities, so I think some real estate investing of that kind is in order. It may or may not be THE next big thing, but it will surely be a big thing.Vote if you like this blog

Kumble accuses Aussies of bad sportsmanship
2008-01-07 06:38:00 India captain Anil Kumble launched an astonishing attack on Australia's cricketers after his team were beaten in the second Test on Sunday, accusing them of breaching the spirit of the game.Kumble was unable to contain his fury after his team were beaten by 122 runs in a thrilling and controversial end to one of the most absorbing matches ever seen at the Sydney Cricket Ground.Asked by Indian journalists about Australia's tactics, Kumble echoed something similar to the immortal line used by the Australian captain Bill Woodfull during the 1932-33 Bodyline series against England."Only one team was playing with the spirit of the game," Kumble said.He also said he was prevented from elaborating on his specific complaints about the Australian players but indicated he was upset at the refusal of their batsmen to walk when they were clearly out.The Indians were on the wrong end of a number of bad umpiring decisions throughout the course of the match but the most crucial occurred on the f...
Aussies win, by hook or by crook
2008-01-07 06:34:00 Towards the end of this game, as wicket after Indian wicket fell at one end and Anil Kumble, magnificent in his defence, grimly held on to the other, many of us gathered at the Sydney Cricket Ground were praying for India to survive; practically willing Ishant Sharma to survive four balls before Kumble would face what would almost certainly be the last over of this match. Ishant, young and tense, lasted three, giving Michael Clarke his third wicket in four balls and it was all over. India had lost this second Test by 122 runs, about five minutes before play would have ended on this final day.
