From the ABC and the wind vane Antarctica ripe for mining, says Joyce Senator Joyce visited Antarctica in April on a month-long mission in his role as a member of the federal Parliament's External Territories Committee. He has told Australian Story that Australia's claim to 42 per cent of the frozen continent is not recognised by a lot of countries. "There's minerals there, there's gold, there's iron ore, there's coal, there's huge fish resources," he said. "What you have to ask is: do I turn my head and allow another country exploit my resource or do I position myself in such a way as I'm going to exploit it myself before they get there?" He says he fears that Australia does not have any real power to stop other nations exploiting Antarctica. "They're whaling in our area, we can't stop them, we don't have the economic or military power to be a threat to them, so what are we to do?" he said. ...and see all the cartoons on Joyce on this site...

A Horrible Feeling Of DreadNot my favourite place to visit, I was dragged into the Adelaide Casino last night. After an hour I left because I didn't feel safe Two hundred people dancing in a venue three stories up from our central railway station didn't seem like a good place to be. Even though the rubbish bins were taken out of the station two years back because of similar fears. I couldn't help thinking of the psychological impact on local culture that an attack on such a place would cause. I didn't want to be fighting my way to an unavailable exit while the floor collapsed beneath me. Given that the casino's interior was recently re-engineered by Halliburton/KBR I would assume that expert consideration of such a situation would have necessitated the incorporation of contingency plans. However, all I could visualise was people jumping of balconies, clawing past each other on the escalators, dodging falling chunks of marble debris... I tried to force myself to stay, but felt compelled to get as far away as possible.
