cpaf posted:It's a pretty bleak reflection on the quality of the average Australian that it wasn't inhumane asylum seeker treatment, privatizing and deregulating education and health, slashing welfare, tearing down the NBN, giving the finger to the environment, introducing draconian police and ASIO anti-terrorism powers as well as the endless list of cuts to vital social, scientific and arts institutions that really broke the camels back. None of that poo poo made any of the rusted-on liberals sit up and really think, this is a bit crook, but rather something entirely inane and (in practicality) essentially a non-event on account of how 'un-Australian' it is.

My reading of it is that it's the high-risk patients whose mortality decreases when the cardiologist's away, because fewer risky interventions are performed.

I'm from WA and voted against daylight savings, the reason being, that place is too loving hot as it is. Every sunset in summer is like a damp cloth being placed over a burn. Why anybody would want to prolong 40-degree sunlight is beyond me. If Perth and Queensland were to have daylight savings at all it would be better suited to winter. It's not that cold, you can still do stuff after work.

Lizard Combatant posted:Is this real life? Is it really that hard to understand that people might not want to prolong the latter part of the day. WA heat typically peaks at around 3-4pm, so you'd be pushing that peak to commuting time. Its perfectly reasonable to prefer the extra daylight afforded by summer at the start of the day rather than dragging out the end of it. Its the kind of thing that should be majority voted because there really is no objectively better option for this trivial problem, just loads of personal preferences based on circumstances.

Air temperature is currently higher than body temperature in most of Perth and it's 8pm. Today wasn't really excessively hot. Try moving that heat to 9pm and getting to sleep without air conditioning Disclosure: I live in a house with aircon in every room so really don't care about it, but I have lived without and it sucks hard

These polls speak volumes to not us but Liberal Party staff. If it continues to speak well for Turnbull. They may very well do the deed. The only problem is that rather large Climate Change denial bloc within the party room which removed him in the first place. Would Prime Minister Turnbull be the same as Opposition Leader Turnbull? That is, pro-ETS, pro-free marketNBN and anti-Ute?

hooman posted:http://www.timeanddate.com/sun/australia/perth?month=1&year=2015 The summer solstice is on the 22nd of December which is the shortest night of the year, so It would be understandable to assume that the longest day would be both days either side of it, but this only works if sunrise and sunset move in opposite directions at the same rate, which it probably does equidistant from the south pole and the equator. I've also heard that this Alan Bond bloke is safe as houses.....
