About Me

Me and my profession

As a qualified educator, and educator of the educators, I am a communications expert; understanding how and why information delivery works and doesn't work. I have experience with technology and consider myself an information-futurist. I am a dreamer!

Now, enough of that wank and onto some more...I have been a teacher of modern English and literature, taught people the skills of learning, teaching and communicating. A can look at big and little pictures and advise on getting from point A to point B. I can read maps!

I am an excellent facilitator, negotiator and have, on many occasions in the past, presented to small and large groups alike. I am a talker!

My experience in commercial enterprise has helped me take a leap from the structure and politic of government back into the real world. I am a thinker!

But I am a teacher; was a teacher of skills and knowledge, and now, like most of us, just a teacher.

Specialties:

Information and communication developer, reviewer and planner, advice on learning, elearning and services online. I see the past and dream the future. I can use smart and dumb tools. A sharer and a listener. A strategist and a dreamer. I can negotiate with people from all walks. I know where I am at and where you want to be. I can read maps!

You can still discriminate against me!

Gay rights advocates criticise new discrimination laws

Under the changes, religious groups will no longer be able to discriminate on the grounds of race, disability, age, physical features, political belief or breastfeeding.

But they can continue to discriminate on grounds including sexuality or marital status if it is in accordance with their beliefs.

You may think its just more 'poofs' having a whinge about 'rights' again. You may think about things like 'Mardis Gras' in Sydney and imagine, its just more 'flaming fags' complaining again. You may even think of such nasty things as 'paedophiles' when you are faced with Gay.

I am not a gay rights whinger.

I am not a flaming poof who does 'Mardis Gras'.

I am certainly not a paedophile (we tend to leave that to the hetrosexual-criminals on the most part!!!!)

But I am gay.

Not a lefty. Not a greeny. Not a socialist. And no, despite what some might think, I am not 'flaming' (you think I am? you need to get out more and see what true 'flaming' really is about!!!)

I am conservative. I am in a long term relationship (14 years). I wear a tie to work. I believe in 'family'!

But I am gay. And I am constantly amazed that, for this one thing, I am still legally allowed to be discriminated against in this country (Australia).

Doesn't seem right to me. But I will respect law, so feel free, take your best shot.

Collingwood forward suspended for headbutting groin

via news.com.au

QUOTE:

COLLINGWOOD forward John Anthony has accepted a one-match suspension for headbutting North Melbourne defender Scott Thompson in the groin.
While the Magpies have been prepared to take cases to the tribunal this season, a guilty verdict would mean a two-match suspension and video footage of the incident looked damning.

Anthony kicked three goals in the easy win over the Kangaroos but there was little else to make the strong-marking forward happy.

Apart from the Thompson incident, coach Mick Malthouse gave Anthony a fearful boundary-line spray just before three-quarter time.

That incident was also caught on camera.

That may well be the overview of what happened, from the AFL point of view, I just think its more likely a fellow footballer was helping out fellow player with an itch - with his teeth!?!?!

Classic moments in footy!
