Grabbing a land and making it stick

Ethan Switch - Wednesday, 29 June, 2005 - 19:44:03 - print it raw

Resting back in the hands of the people of the Ngaanyatjarra Lands, 180 000 square kilometres of prime Australian dirt. From an area that abounds to include Mount Gibson and Great Victoria Deserts, and extending to the South Australian and Northern Territory borders, the land settlement brings the natives to their home, as custodians and as the caretakers for the mighty soil.

Japan, after recently declaring a spree on whaling, threw the National Association of Forest Industries with their recent announcement, declaring a ban on old-growth borne wood chips. Tasmanian loggers, perplexed by the land of the rising sun taking an interest in conservation, fear that many jobs could fall and slash as fast as the fins on a humpback whale for recipe and scientific dining research.

Articles and all that more wordy stuff

Where in Kentucky - Mammoth Cave National Park: Monstrously, and seemingly neverending, sitting under the home ground of Colonel Sanders, the world's largest cave system. Yucatan comes nowhere close. Not even Cocklebiddy poses a threat. No comparison. Small holes looking up at a big fat long one. Sadly, with possible age and lack of food, no minotaurs to be found within the lime walls.
Homebrew Diary - Wheatbeer of misery: If what can turn a foul mood around becomes the harbinger of the foul mood, what happens next? Turn it into a learning experience. And when that learning curve makes a late break over the plate, you'd better start to swing away.
Homebrew Diary - Blackrock IPA + Hops: It doesn't take a big man to admit that he drinks. It takes a big man to get wasted and perform impromptu sermons naked from a balcony; raving upon the ravages of the insanity of stata bylaws and noisy offspring in adjoining arpartments...
