Jusst how rich does billionaire Mineral Resources boss Clive Ellison want to be? He has banned staff from working from home, and forbids them from leaving the office, even at lunchtime, to get a coffee. “I get them first thing in the morning, I want to hold them captive all day long. I don't want them leaving the building,” Ellison said. "I don't want them walking down the road for a cup of coffee. We kind of figured out a few years ago how much that costs, wandering out around lunchtime.” Some changes designed to keep people on site include a restaurant and cafe, a fitness centre and a $ 20-a-day childcare centre for staff to “drop their little tykes off next door”. I certainly wouldn't work for a boss like that. Yes, work from home can be a pain for other family members. My son only this week said it is 2 years since he started working from home, only going to the office for training sessions. He works from the family room. Meetings are conducted via Zoom or Teams. I hate it when he's on the late shift, finishing at 7:00 pm.

A builder that specialised in knocking down old houses is being liquidated with more than $3million in debt - and 45 unfinished homes - after having its licence suspended. Ansa Homes, a Sydney-based family business established in 2006, has collapsed after Building Commission NSW suspended its contractor licence for 60 days, following complaints from customers about defects. The embattled company's shareholders appointed insolvency firm Jirsch Sutherland on Tuesday, after the state government agency stopped it from trading, leading to the retrenchment of 20 builders.

A man has died and a woman is in a critical condition after a tree fell onto their car during gale forced winds. The pair were trapped inside the car for more than an hour after a tree fell on Main Road at Gellibrand, 175km south-west of Melbourne on Wednesday afternoon.

Michael Cohen said there’s an easy way to spot when Donald Trump is lying, and you don’t have to read the former president’s lips. Just watch his hands. “When you see the accordion hands start going, what that means is that he’s lying,” Cohen, who was Trump’s longtime fixer and personal attorney, told CNN’s Jim Acosta on Tuesday. “It’s a tell with Donald. Anytime that the accordion hands start, that means that he’s not telling the truth.” Cohen spoke with Acosta about Trump’s on-again, off-again debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, which seems to be back on even though the two camps are still arguing over whether the mics should be muted when they are not speaking. The Harris camp wants the mics on all the time, and Trump has said that’s OK with him. But his campaign wants them off for the Sept. 10 debate. Cohen said there’s a reason for that. “They don’t trust that he’s gonna keep his mouth shut and he won’t stay normal for the 90 minutes of the debate,” Cohen said. Cohen said Trump ― despite what he says ― doesn’t want the mics on, either. “He knows he can’t control himself,” he said. “He says things under his breath, he’s gonna continuously interrupt Kamala every time she says something that he doesn’t agree with. He can’t help himself.”

Show's back.

Not wet today, but bloody windy. Winds up to 133 kph today. When I went to the oncologist, I had to park with the car door facing the wind. I could hardly open the door to get out. It's easing off now, but a fresh front with high winds is racing across the bight. They will be here over the weekend.

Trump insists he’s ‘not a threat to democracy’ in Dr Phil interview, suggests God wants him to save the world Donald Trump insisted that he is “not a threat to democracy” in an interview with TV personality Dr Phil on Tuesday night, during which he also suggested that he survived an assassination attempt last month because God wanted him to save the US - and possibly the world. During the hour-long, sit-down in Las Vegas, the former president attempted to clarify previous remarks about wanting to be a “dictator for one day” and ensuring people would “not have to vote again” if he wins the White House in November.

Trump Erupts Over Reindictment On Coup Attempt Charges Donald Trump erupted in a tirade on Truth Social over special counsel Jack Smith’s announcement on Tuesday that Trump had been reindicted on four charges related to his Jan. 6, 2021, attempt to subvert the 2020 election results. “In an effort to resurrect a ‘dead’ Witch Hunt in Washington, D.C., in an act of desperation, and in order to save face, the illegally appointed “Special Counsel” Deranged Jack Smith, has brought a ridiculous new Indictment against me, which has all the problems of the old Indictment, and should be dismissed IMMEDIATELY,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Tuesday.

What is ridiculous is the up and down price of petrol. At the moment, it's down. Today I bought petrol at pump price $1.70/l. Preset $35.00. Then, with my discounts, paid $33.15, reducing the price to $1.61.5/l

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) said there’s a simple reason Donald Trump is trying to avoid a debate with Vice President Kamala Harris. “I think Trump is really afraid of Kamala Harris,” she told MSNBC’s Jen Psaki on Monday. “Or as I like to think of it: The felon is really afraid of the prosecutor.” Warren said there’s a “damn good reason” for Trump to fear Harris. “She’s smart. She’s disciplined. And she’s not afraid of a bully,” Warren said. She added that Trump isn’t the only one living in fear right now. “I think his whole team is scared,” she said. “And that’s why they’re trying to find ways to muzzle him, to make this debate not happen if possible.” Warren also made a bold prediction on what would happen if Trump does show up to debate Harris. “She’s gonna wipe the floor with Donald Trump,” Warren said.

Motorists in one Aussie jurisdiction are being warned they could get stung double if they're caught breaching road rules on roadside cameras, with staff now scanning to ensure their vehicle registration is up to date. In the ACT this week, transport officials warned drivers caught committing road offences by the territory's road safety camera network will also now have their vehicle checked to see if its rego is current. From Tuesday, staff monitoring the entire road safety camera network will now be checking vehicle registration among those caught in breach of an offence, including through speed cameras, mobile device detection cameras and red-light cameras. "Vehicle registration is a legal requirement and crucial for maintaining road safety. Without registration and insurance, the driver of the vehicle may be personally liable for any injuries caused to themselves and others," The ACT government said in a statement. Access Canberra, the government's division that manages services and transactions, will check rego details when processing other traffic infringements caught on camera. Officials have warned motorists the fine for driving an unregistered vehicle is a whopping $700. This means that, should a camera detect a driver doing the wrong thing on the road, and that driver was also travelling in an unregistered vehicle, they will get stung for both infringements. "If your vehicle has been unregistered for more than 12 months, it will require a roadworthy inspection. You will also need to visit an Access Canberra Service Centre to register the vehicle," the government said. "The key focus of infringements in the first few months will be for driving unregistered, with additional infringements for also driving uninsured to then be implemented." The ACT Government-operated cameras operate in addition to police, it said. ACT Policing will continue to target those "who choose to speed and put road users at risk". The announcement comes as roadside cameras around the country are fitted with enhanced technology to detect more offences than ever before, as authorities grapple with how best to manage the soaring level of fatalities on our roads. Transport authorities in Tasmania recently announced a similar move.
