Generate additional cash flow to get more bling
Now, please understand, I am not advocating working your ass off just to spend ALL of your cash on trinkets and have nothing left. This mentality will only send you broke or, at best, you will get to retirement with little or no money and no way of generating any additional income.
What I am advocating, [...]

A history of the House of Vacheron Constantin
Putting it simply, these guys have been in the business of making watches for a very, very long time. I can also confirm that in my interactions with many manufacturers, these guys are way up there in terms of professionalism and speed of response. This is NOT true with some other manufacturers who come across [...]

The Worlds best whiskies? Possibly!

Arise Sir Malcolm
Is Brendan Nelson a dead man walking, as Michelle Grattan and more than a few of his colleagues believe?
Yes. He’s gone.
Last night’s budget reply speech showed why. While Nelson is an empathetic and even likeable speaker, it is becoming clearer by the day that he doesn’t have the policy credentials to pull his party out of its current mire.

Coming up Blue
If China did not have enough on its hands at the moment, one of its key allies in its naval "string of pearls" strategy - Burma - is now dealing with Western pressure to open up the country to UN relief. Commentators such as Shawn Crispin in the Asia Times are claiming that if ever there were a time for the United States to invade Burma, now is it. Well that is interesting, Shawn.

The Budget for Dummies
Economics is a complicated matter. It has to be, so that economists can get people to talk to them. And economists’ delusions of popularity are never so strong as in Budget week, a national celebration of the very best in our society, ie money.
Every year Australians come together to celebrate the Budget in the traditional way: by reading several thousand articles titled "Winners and Losers" and whining about how there’s not enough money for child care.

If Cherie and Hillary Are Doing It...
The publication of the Janette Howard diaries will send further shockwaves through the embattled Federal Liberal Party.
Or at least they would do, if they existed.
Extracts from Cherie Booth’s diaries recently published in The Times have added to the woes of UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown. We can only speculate what impact a Janette Howard autobiography would have in Australia.

Why Obama Won
10. Great Team. Obama assembled a great team that could work together. He stayed away from lobbyist insiders like Clinton’s Mark Penn or McCain’s Charlie Black, and chose political professionals who are committed to progressive values like David Plouffe, David Axelrod, Steve Hildebrand and Paul Tewes.

Al-Nakba is not the Holocaust
Today is a day that I and other Palestinians write about on an annual basis. However, this year when I pitched an article to a leading Australian publication in which I asserted that ethnic cleansing took place in Palestine in 1948, the editor told me the claim "was spurious, as how do you explain the one million Palestinians now living in Israel if it were true".
The response highlights the very serious issue of Al-Nakba Denial.

How do you feel after the 2008 Federal Budget?
* Bring on the tax cuts

No Big Dives for this Little Swan
Did Wayne Swan make a reasonable fist of his first budget? Undoubtedly, yes. Is it an appropriate budget to the evolving circumstances? Heaven only knows what Harry Hindsight will be saying in a few years time.

2008
So they tell me that 2008 is the year of the Scout. If you see a scout, tell him to take five while you start pulling your weight and help an elderly woman across the street yourself.
I say good on them. After years of wearing geeky uniforms and lighting fires underwater, they get their own [...]

The sound of one voice talking
It has oft been said that talking to oneself is the first sign of madness. But simply saying something oft, does not make it true. What about saying something oft, to oneself? Quite the conundrum. But in all seriousness, and in my professional opinion, there is nothing wrong or shameful in talking to yourself.

Podcasts and what to do with them
Who listens to commercial radio anymore? Let me tell you: people who dont know about Podcasts.

So anyways, who actually likes Salt and Vinegar chips? Let me tell you: nobody. Theyre rubbish. There was one guy who thought he liked them, but it turned out he didnt. Besides, he was an idiot who didnt know what he was talking about. These days he works at Channel Ten advocating for another season [...]

Take a photo of the intruder and email it to you
Place a video call from your security camera to your 3G mobile phone so you could return home immediately to stop the intruder
Turn on the coffee machine so that when you got home [...]
