Anidav posted:The liberals would probably take the Fisher count to court, no? If they've been propoerly scrutinising each vote counted, then they'd know if there was any point. AFAIK there's been no WA-style losing of boxes of votes. Even if that were the case, and the late swing against the Lib candidate was indeed due to federal politics, they'd be mad to push for a re-poll.

My girlfriend uses these giant band aid pad things that stick to your stomach region and somehow makes you lose weight. Apparently a huge seller in South Korea.

T-1000 posted:If you look at the article, it's pure water and neglecting any dissolved CO2 etc. Over time, the hydronium ions concentrate at the surface. Nifty. I think we're talking wear on the bee's condom by this point in terms of magnitude, but cool still. I've no doubt pH plays a role in dieting, and maintaining a pH in parts of your body (such as gut) is likely hard to do when you're drinking 3 litres of acidic sugar concentrate a day. We're talking some reasonably large cause and effect, though, and rubbish like alkaline water hurts by detracting from discussing real impacts and muddying the water. I agree it's better than soft drink, as long as it's made to some standards. I'd also love to see the industry be required to prove health effects to claim them, not doing so gives them unwarranted legitimacy. Buyer beware is one thing, skirting fraud to make money should be another.

Quantum Mechanic posted:It's entirely possible that if they pull votes away from the Greens and pull them back below Verity (remember, Labor's seeing a significant swing back towards them in NSW) that Greens preferences or exclusions could get the Libs elected, because Balmain voters can be really loving weird - think the amount of Prahran voters who went Lib to Green. Wait are you saying that the Greens would preference the Liberals over Labor? Cause that seems too masochistic.

The Greens would either preference Labor or run an open ticket. Some Green voters preference Liberal 2, because the world is a dark and terrifying place. It's worth noting that the preference flow from Labor to Green in Prahran was stronger than the preference flow from Green to Labor.

There's also that bloc of voters who believe the majors are just two heads on the same dragon so they just do not care because it's lose-lose. A more careful voter would put the ALP ahead though since they might decide to gently caress you over a little less.

We call them Tree Tories. You have to remember, a part of the Green constituency is that European-style pro-capitalist environmentalist, and for a long time many liberal parties have been more pro-environment than industry-focused labour parties.

I dunno, just bog standard environmentally conscious shitstain rich folk. If your political understanding is bog standard shallowness of greens = environment, libs = business & labor = workers, it doesn't require much cognitive dissonance as it doesn't get enough brain time to show up.

you could probably find a couple. There always seems to be a few odd outliers in every party that you have literally no idea how they end up there but other then that not really as the economic views are completely opposite. In rural areas you do find quite a few agrarian socialist who might end up in the nationals, due to the nationals being meant to look after them. You can see it a bit in some of Katters polices which has small elements of agrarian socialist like protectionist trade polices and what not.

I think he means that it is a shame because it is actually in the realm of possibility for KAP to take national seats and Katter is better than the Nationals. Funny story. My brother teaches at our old school and watches the footy with our old history teacher. He is a National's member and had a picture of the queen circa 1964 in his class room in 2004, but he probably still does. He was running late to watch a Broncos game and I asked my brother why he just first call him and he said he didn't own a mobile phone. I lost it .

To make the regions snap out of it and not think they will only ever get one choice. I know he is bad. Now the regions have to wait until The Greens take off in the rural electorates for any shakeup and or action.

Katter might be a more honest representative for parts of rural Australia but theres no way he's better than the Nationals. Like, the Nationals are bad, but they've obviously improved since Joh and Katter is essentially a neo-Joh in terms of policy. The guy literally said gays don't exist in his electorate, I mean really.

I pretty sure there's one which is those stickers you put on yourself to melt fat.
