  1. Australia 108 is Melbourne’s tallest building, standing at 316.7 meters (1,039 feet) in architectural height. Completed in September 2020, it is the tallest residential skyscraper in Australia to roof and the first supertall building in the Southern Hemisphere with at least 100 floors.

  3. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's arrest photo was briefly displayed at the Louvre Museum in Paris by activists from the anti-billionaire group Everyone Hates Elon on Sunday, February 22, 2026. The framed photograph, taken by Reuters photographer Phil Noble, shows Mountbatten-Windsor slumped in the back seat of a Range Rover after being released from Norfolk police custody following an 11-hour detention on suspicion of misconduct in public office. The image was hung on a wall at the museum alongside the caption “He’s Sweating Now”, a reference to a controversial 2019 interview where Mountbatten-Windsor claimed he couldn’t sweat due to a Falklands War injury, contradicting allegations by Virginia Giuffre. The display lasted only 15 minutes before Louvre staff removed it. The stunt was part of a protest against Mountbatten-Windsor’s alleged links to Jeffrey Epstein, including emails suggesting he shared confidential government information while serving as a British trade envoy. The group stated their goal was to show “how the world will remember him” and called for “Justice for all Epstein survivors.”

  9. Now to another piece of marvellous Labor infrastructure. The glorious Westgate Tunnel. Designed to ease traffic on the Westgate Bridge and reduce suburban traffic through the western suburbs. Now trucks are refusing to use it because the tolls are too high, and they are causing more traffic, semi's and B-Doubles through the streets 24/7, risking pedestrians.
  10. Here is a photo of, l to r, my father, his sister, and my mother's sister-in-law. The photo was taken 55 years ago. The original was black and white, but I used an online site to colourise it a couple of years ago. It took the algorithm about 2 minutes. Last week I found another site online which said they could convert old photos into video clips. I didn't specify a motion style, but this is how they converted it. The power of AI.

  13. BREAKING NEWS : 🚨 “YOU USELESS IDIOT, WHO GAVE YOU THE RIGHT TO CRITICIZE ME LIKE THIS?” Pauline Hanson continues to stir up Australian politics by announcing a massive $100 billion reform plan, considered the most drastic and ambitious move of her political career. The proposal includes completely withdrawing Australia from the Paris Climate Agreement, severing all ties with the WHO and WEF, and dissolving the Department of Renewable Energy to shift all resources to coal and gas extraction. Just 48 hours after its announcement, support for One Nation surged by 22%, setting a new record unprecedented in the party’s history. Ms. Hanson promised that the massive annual savings would be used to reduce personal income taxes by 25%, subsidize fossil fuel electricity to its lowest level in 20 years, and invest heavily in rural infrastructure and large-scale irrigation projects. Notably, her concise, defiant 14-word statement quietly spread on social media, creating deep divisions in public opinion and striking fear into the hearts of traditional political elites in the face of rising populist power Facebook Poster.

  16. Albert Park would have required modification as longer runoff areas are needed for bikes. There are some corners at AP where there is no room for longer runoffs. Wayne Gardiner had quite a spew about the loss. He said the place had been badly run down since Aust GP Corp took over and the government wouldn't put up cash to restore the place, Asked if he would remove his statue, he said he would "stick it up their arxe".
