I'd be worried about it falling over. The Council wouldn't be game to question the Building Specs. Too busy divvying up the Bribe money. Nev

Plenty of others DESERVE to be Pilloried as Much as HE is.. There's NEVER a shortage of Royalty KNOCKERS. .I suppose it's "Look how the MIGHTY have fallen" thing.. Nev

It's a JOKE. Nev

IF the AFP find she was doing something illegal she will scream to high dudgeon "THEY" are COMMING for Me. I think she has already done that, cheered on by Merde OK as usual. .Nev

I took a little JOKER's License there. . He didn't think that was funny. He said "Pick on someone your own size" Nev

Like most Asian names, the surname come first. His father was KIM JONG IL (capitalised because upper case i and lower case L look the same in this font, ie, Il ). Kim is his surname, Un is his given name. Just like Xi Jinping's surname is Xi.

Listened tu it. Well Produced. We need more of such articles. Constant Peer review is part of science. Unfortunately a lot of people won't look at anything that contests their Already made up Conclusions that they are comfortable with. Some years ago, the Psychology Courses called it "Selective Perception".. Nev

When HE goes they'll get another UN. God-Kings beat every THING. You can bet your LIFE on it. Nev

It would probably take around three years to design and build it starting from scratch. Even if it was built, I doubt that Trump will ever get his name on it. He will hopefully be in jail or in an aged care facility by then.

If it ever gets built Trump will probably be dead before it is finished

SHE doesn't turn ME ON, tiger and I can't see how talking to her would be anything put a test of Endurance. Can you imagine HER as PM representing the COUNTRY? Nev

Bated Breath sounds like something you'd have to find a cure for. None for Me Please. Anyhow my Medical thing was done Over the Phone. I'm going to Need another OP on my right Hand. My brain hasn't changed. Now I have to peruse that Article. Lunch will be soon and do you know what happens IF you let lunch get Cold.? Nev

Trust the Gold Coast Council? Never! If you don't want it, tell Trump that Qld is not really part of Australia. Nev

Too much on your skin should be avoided. Nev

There's a lot of talk but a council spokesperson said they hadn't received a development application at this stage.

Apparently WD-40 is packaged in Australia, and there are Australia-specific products. https://wd40.com.au/faq/what-is-wd-40-specialist-lawn-garden

The correct phrase is bated breath, which means holding one's breath in anticipation, excitement, or fear. I wonder what the record is for "waiting with bated breath"? If one uses mint flavoured toothpaste does one have baited breath?

How long would it take to build? What an eyesore for that part of the country.

My comments on the Sabine video. I am just commenting what I understand at present without going back to research and justify each statement. 1 the way CO2 absorbs infrared has been known for well over 100 years. It might or might not be significant in the atmosphere. The arguments against it include atmospheric layering (no glass in the greenhouse walls) and the overwhelming effect of moisture and clouds. 2 Atmospheric CO2 has been increasing since measurements began (since 1982). But we don't know how variable and cyclic it is over longer periods. Ice cores show that it increases after warming, therefore is an effect of warming, and not a cause. 3 Oceans becoming less alkaline (not more acidic!) can be due to volcanic activity which is largely unquantified and much greater than "climate scientists" acknowledge. 4 The additional CO2 in the atmosphere may be from fossil fuels, the isotopic ratio is not proof yet. It can also be from land clearing, volcanism etc. 5 Stratospheric cooling must be considered in relation to the clouds and moisture problem at lower levels. All of my statements can be backed up by scientific papers. There is a lot of debate about them all. It is prudent to say that we don't have the answers at present, that the science is far from settled. The greatest risk to humanity is that we condemn later generations to a world without adequate energy supplies, destroying our industrial capacity and standard of living. Of course this will not happen globally, but at present Australia is out there on its own destroying its infrastructure without having put a substitute in place.

That "private beach club" bit is going to go down well with the Gold Coast beaches users. Trump obviously thinks he can fence off an Australian beach to stop "outside" beach walkers from walking past his Tower, as they can in the U.S. I've got news for him, unless the authorities change Australian land title laws in a big way, it's not going to happen. Plus, I can just see that setup of a Trump Tower right on a GC beach looking pretty sad after one of those massive GC storms that sweeps in from the SE. His Tower will end up in the ocean.

This what the SMH has to say about it, from Stuff NZ that isn't behind a paywall. 91 floors so fewer than Australia 108. Trumps personal insecurity and ego could not allow him not to propose the tallest though. https://www.stuff.co.nz/world-news/360942643/new-trump-tower-be-australias-tallest-building-private-beach-club-promised

I accept that our forum debate boils down to discourse about the rate of ACC rather than the existence of it. Which still validates the wisdom of reducing our atmospheric pollutants. My opinion is that there is a big problem with the "Climate Change Debate" itself. Allowing the world media to argue obsessively over CO2, takes focus away from the multitude of other pollutions, which increasing slide under the radar. Industries (including mining, gas & oil) tend to use the most cost effective processes. They prioritise profit over human health. Individual people are not motivated either.

As long as she is not doing anything illegal, good on her still. Large companys always push the boundrys. Qantas selling seats on flights that don't exist, com bank, woolies, coles. Put some CEO's in jail will fix it.

The problem with sending that video to your uncle who doesn't believe in climate change is that his pea brain is so entrenched he won't believe it and has no understanding of or care for science. Trump is a great example of one of these Uncles.
