The 42 members of the Second Gillard Government will rarely meet together in one place as they did yesterday at Government House for their swearing in by the Governor-General. Most of the time, the Cabinet of 20 will meet weekly. Occasionally, the 10 members of the outer ministry will join the Cabinet. Only rarely will the 12 Parliamentary Secretaries sit in the same room with the inner circle. To watch them yesterday was to be reminded that politics is a business of hierarchies, competing ambitions, animosities and long memories. Disappointment is never far away. Friendship is fraught. As they say in the cities of government the world over, if you want a friend here, get a dog. Behind the palpable relief that these Labor members were even present at Yarralumla to be commissioned as members … Read More

Provigil For Sale
July 19, 2010 by mfarnsworth · Leave a Comment
I learned a timely lesson earlier today.
Provigil For Sale, Sitting in my car after leaving an appointment, I looked at Twitter to see if any there was any news of interest.
A number of media outlets and journalists were tweeting that a 19-gun salute was about to take place, at 4.59pm to be precise, outside Parliament House in Canberra.
Then I managed to forget things I used to know and proceeded to make a fool of myself. Well, buy no prescription Provigil online, Where can i order Provigil without prescription, I could argue only half a fool, but that's a bit like being half mad or half pregnant.
I took issue with statements by others that the prorogation of Federal Parliament was about to take place, buy Provigil no prescription. Provigil samples, I was wrong. The Parliament was prorogued at 4.59pm, buy cheap Provigil no rx. Buy Provigil from mexico, Here's the explanation from the Parliamentary Education Office. Thanks to @2ricz.
Before dissolving the House of Representatives, the Governor-General issues a proclamation proroguing the Parliament, buy Provigil without prescription. Prorogation is an ancient power of the British Crown adopted in the Australian Parliament as the means of bringing a session of Parliament to a close, Provigil For Sale. Order Provigil from mexican pharmacy, A prorogation may take place separately from an election, but this rarely happens now except for ceremonial purposes, Provigil price. Buy cheap Provigil, For example, in 1974 and 1977 the Parliament was prorogued when the Queen visited Australia which enabled Her Majesty to attend and open Parliament, buy Provigil from canada. Purchase Provigil online, When an election is called, the Prime Minister usually announces a dissolution and prorogation of Parliament at the same time before they are formalised by the Secretary to the Governor-General in a public ceremony in front of Parliament House, purchase Provigil online no prescription. Provigil over the counter, After the Parliament is prorogued and the House of Representatives dissolved, bills and other business before the House of Representatives and the Senate lapse and will need to be reintroduced, online buying Provigil. Provigil For Sale, The government becomes a caretaker government and, by convention, does not make major decisions. Buy Provigil without prescription, The sittings of the Senate are terminated, but Senate Committees may still operate.
I took issue with statements by others that the Parliament was dissolved at 5.00pm, buy cheap Provigil. Provigil samples, I was right. The House of Representatives was dissolved at 5.00pm but the Senate wasn't, where can i find Provigil online. Order Provigil from mexican pharmacy, The Senate is only dissolved when there is a double dissolution and that hasn't happened since 1987.
I took issue with the assertion that Parliament was "deferred". I was right, buy no prescription Provigil online. Buy generic Provigil, As @ljLoch tweeted, whilst that might be a nice concept, Provigil for sale, Provigil from canadian pharmacy, Parliament is never deferred.
The lesson. As that old saying goes, where can i order Provigil without prescription, Where can i buy cheapest Provigil online, sometimes it's better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

Turnbull Pushes For Delay of Emissions Trading Scheme Legislation

The Leader of the Opposition, Malcolm Turnbull, has announced that the coalition will move to defer passage of the Emissions Trading Scheme legislation until next year. Speaking at a joint press conference with the Nationals leader, Warren Truss, Turnbull argued that the legislation should be delayed until after the Copenhagen conference at the end of [...]
Political Parties
Buy Adipex Without Prescription
There is much over-blown talk of new paradigms at the moment.
Buy Adipex Without Prescription, Before the 43rd Parliament has even met, the new political paradigm has been shown to be illusory. Standard politics continues apace. An old-fashioned deal has delivered us a minority government. Interest groups and political participants have begun positioning themselves to extract maximum advantage from the new Parliament.
Far from the political process becoming more open and transparent, purchase Adipex online, it is more likely that backroom intrigue will flourish. Intricate deal-making seems set to reach new heights of ingenuity. The numerical permutations and combinations in both houses guarantee that practitioners of the so-called old paradigm will be called upon to ensure that things do not fall apart.
Another paradigm that has failed to materialise is the one that was supposed to deliver a “Twitter election” and usher in a new democracy powered by “social media”, Buy Adipex Without Prescription. Where can i buy cheapest Adipex online, Instead, the golden age of 140-character political participation has been clubbed to death by the established media and all but ignored by the main political parties.
Social media has undoubtedly brought change to the way media organisations operate. But there is scant evidence that Australian political parties made any attempt to run an online campaign. There is even less evidence that the parties have utilised the internet to organise and motivate their supporters, buy Adipex online no prescription, let alone raise funds.
Some lobby groups such as Emily’s List and GetUp. have raised funds online through email campaigns. Buy Adipex Without Prescription, The latter is the most conspicuous political entity in Australia to take advantage of new technologies in its campaigns. Adipex over the counter, Its email fundraising paid for the successful High Court action that overturned enrolment restrictions. Moreover, Getup. claims to have sent 50, rx free Adipex,000 SMS enrolment messages to its database of supporters when the August election was announced.
Amongst the mainstream parties, however, Online buying Adipex, corporate and union donations constitute the bulk of money raised. The process is as opaque and obscure as ever. Organisationally, direct mail remains the most significant personal connection between parties and voters, Buy Adipex Without Prescription. Letterboxing, posters and billboards persist, order Adipex online c.o.d. Most of all, it is television that drives the political game. Buy Adipex without a prescription, Getting the right images on the nightly news is paramount. In this, social media doesn’t yet rate in Australia.
In the United States, with its more decentralised system of primary elections and voluntary voting, online buy Adipex without a prescription, mailing lists, blogs and online forums are more significant. The rise of the Tea Party movement derives in part from its ability to bypass traditional channels of communication.
Buy Adipex Without Prescription, Here, conservatives took advantage of email to lobby the rural independents during the recent electoral hiatus. Online buy Adipex without a prescription, Liberal Party members reportedly did the same during the Turnbull-Abbott confrontation over climate change policy last year. But this is little more than an extension of traditional letter-writing campaigns. It hardly amounts to a significant use of social media.
Proponents of a digital age of Pericles point to the possibilities of Twitter. After all, buy Adipex from canada, Kevin Rudd has over 940,000 followers. Malcolm Turnbull has over 31,000, Buy Adipex Without Prescription. Buy Adipex from mexico, The NSW Premier and Opposition Leader are both big users of Twitter, as is the South Australian Premier.
But these politicians are more the exception than the rule. All credit to them for utilising new technologies to engage with the electorate. Most politicians, Adipex pharmacy, however, are not on Twitter or Facebook. Buy Adipex online cod, At best, most have a bog-standard website on which they post copies of party policies and speeches. Buy Adipex Without Prescription, Some, such as Liberal Senator Cory Bernardi have blogs which engender lively debate, but they are few and far between.
I’ve written previously on the missed opportunities in social media by Australia’s politicians. Of course, it is little wonder that so few politicians choose to engage in this way, online buying Adipex. Most have neither the time nor the resources to do it properly. Like a letter to a constituent, Where can i order Adipex without prescription, a tweet is forever, and requires some caution and consideration of its impact. The dangers inherent in social media are regularly highlighted.
So, where is the excitement about social media’s transformative effect coming from, buy Adipex without a prescription. Traditional media, of course.
Print, television and radio outlets have taken to Twitter like moths to a light, Buy Adipex Without Prescription. Open a Twitter account and you can soon be following the regular tweets of your favourite reporter or TV host. Many of them will keep you up-to-date with what’s coming up on their programs. Buy Adipex online no prescription, They will give you links to their latest articles and columns.
And herein lies the key to understanding what Twitter really does. It is a powerful tool for driving traffic to other web properties. Buy Adipex Without Prescription, It is a means of getting more eye-balls to websites which need traffic to attract advertisers. It’s a means for companies and individuals to build a “brand”.
That’s why the media organisations and their staffs have colonised Twitter. They use it to tout their wares, australia, uk, us, usa, canada, mexico, india, craiglist, ebay. For organisations that live or die on readership figures and advertising, the attraction is obvious.
Don’t misunderstand. Where can i buy cheapest Adipex online, I am not condemning Twitter. I spend a goodly amount of time on it, Buy Adipex Without Prescription. I have made offline friends through Twitter. It has brought me work. There is no question that it is a powerful social networking tool, Adipex price. All I’m saying is that it hasn’t yet impacted on the game of politics, let alone revolutionised it.
To be sure, Buy generic Adipex, political coverage by the media has been influenced by social media. Buy Adipex Without Prescription, Some journalists are crowd sourcing their questions. These people understand that the sun is going down on the days of the passive audience. On the other hand, lazy journalists have merely grouped Google, Adipex samples, Twitter and Facebook as prime sources of easy “research”.
Twitter has had profound effects on the daily work of some people in the media. It is undoubtedly the most rapid means of disseminating breaking news that we have yet seen. Order Adipex online c.o.d, But speed should not be confused with political impact.
Look at what happened when the Turnbull and Rudd dumpings took place. I watched both events unfold on Twitter and the cacophony of activity was truly exciting.
However, it was also chaotic and confused, Buy Adipex Without Prescription. Gossip was retailed as news. Most discussion derived from television coverage and consisted of not much more than commentary on the television commentary, laced with humour, Adipex from canadian pharmacy, sloganeering, informed and ill-informed political observations. Order Adipex from mexican pharmacy, Lots of noise, not much signal.
What happened politically as a consequence of this supposedly powerful new social media. Precisely nothing. Buy Adipex Without Prescription, The Liberal and Labor parties behaved as political parties always have. They plotted in secret, purchase Adipex online no prescription. They leaked occasionally. They controlled the game. Adipex over the counter, The ballot results were sent by SMS to journalists minutes before the official announcements. Those journalists told their television audiences or tweeted it to their followers, Buy Adipex Without Prescription. We could delude ourselves that we were there as events unfolded. Fun, yes, where can i buy Adipex online. Significant, no.
On the weekend prior to Abbott’s election as leader, Buy Adipex no prescription, Joe Hockey was the favourite to win. Next to no-one saw that Turnbull was fighting a ferocious campaign which he nearly won. Buy Adipex Without Prescription, Absolutely no-one saw Abbott coming up the middle. Few in the media wrote of Hockey’s disappointing campaign and woeful tactics. Traditional media’s colonisation of Twitter ensured that social media also failed the test of shedding light on events.
When Gillard toppled Rudd, the story was broken in a very traditional way on ABC television news. For several hours that June night, Twitter was ablaze with speculation and rumour, much of it wrong. At the caucus meeting the following morning, a Labor MP sent a text message to a journalist who duly tweeted the outcome.
And that was it. Social media told us of a political outcome several minutes earlier than would once have been the case, Buy Adipex Without Prescription. But we are yet to hear the full story of what really happened. Roll out the new paradigm!
During the recent election campaign, many journalists tweeted from the Gillard and Abbott campaign buses. Those of us who followed the campaign closely as part of our work were grateful for advance notification of when the leaders were going to speak to the cameras. We may even have chuckled at the world-weary journalistic jokes and guffawed at the happy snaps they uploaded.
But was it revelatory. Buy Adipex Without Prescription, Was the veil lifted. Not on your life. All we got was a look at political leaders and reporters operating in a bubble, divorced from everyday existence.
A blogger, GrogsGamut, ruffled those media feathers during the election campaign with an impassioned and vitriolic attack on the lack of media coverage of issues and policy.
Along with a mysterious Twitter user called GhostWhoVotes, who regularly leaked details of opinion polls, Grog’s intervention was one of the few moments when social media played a role in the campaign. Even then, it affected the media more than it impacted on the political process.
Certainly, there are thousands of people talking about Australian politics on Twitter. There are a number of highly skilled policy and electoral analysts who conduct civilised conversations with their followers. Television programs such as QandA are assailed by thousands of tweets each week.
But most of this takes place in an echo chamber where people seek out those of like mind and reinforce one another’s opinions. It’s a place that Joe Hockey complained about on the weekend, describing it as a place where “the anonymous commentary is often banal, nasty and meaningless”.
The day may come when social media reshapes politics in Australia, when “citizen journalism” shares a table with the mainstream media and ordinary voters can engage with their chosen representatives.
More likely, though, current trends will continue.
The established media, seeking to survive the decline of printed platforms, will tighten its grip on new media and maintain its dominance of the social and political agenda.
In time, Australian politicians will no doubt learn from their international counterparts how to make use of social media.
But a new paradigm. No, power renews and rebuilds itself by absorbing the new and shaping it to serve unbending purposes.
The wishful thinkers who see social media as the dawn of a golden democratic age would do better to consider who is manipulating whom.
