2 dead :(

New Zealand Police. @nzpolice

The offender has moved through the building site and continued to discharge his firearm.

Upon reaching the upper levels of the building, the male has contained himself within the elevator shaft and our staff have attempted to engage with him.

Further shots were fired from the male and he was located deceased a short time later.

I usually have a tin of kidney beans that go straight in, or I’d like to try roast chickpeas as well. You can stick in back in the oven if you want everything to warm up nicely together.

As a result of this, and through careful deliberation, the final proposal for a National Voice is a 24-member model including 5 members representing remote regions, and one member representing the significant number of Torres Strait Islanders living on the mainland. (p. 12)

Members of the Local & Regional Voices within each state and territory would collectively determine National Voice members from their respective jurisdictions. (p. 12)

Members would serve 4-year terms. These terms would be staggered, with half the membership determined every 2 years to ensure continuity. There would be a limit of 2 consecutive terms per member. (p. 108)

• The National Voice would be an advisory body to the Australian Parliament and Government. These relationships would be two-way interactions, with either party able to initiate advice or commence discussion around relevant policy matters... The National Voice would have no power to veto laws made by the Parliament or decisions made by the Australian Government. (p. 109)

I mean, there’s a 270 page report about the design of the thing here https://voice.gov.au/resources/indigenous-voice-co-design-process-final-report

Baked loaded sweet potatoes.

Basically cook a sweet potato, then open it up and stuff it full of things you like (beans, corn, sour cream is a good one).

Possibly…

Dr Alice Gorman, an expert in the field of space archaeology, said she believes the object is a fuel cylinder that came from the the third stage of India’s Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle rocket, as many have suggested on social media. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2023/jul/17/mystery-object-wa-beach-green-head-western-australia

Or the sea life has rapidly evolved and is now plotting our destruction. All part of the orca uprising.

Eep! Hope everything goes well!

Haha don’t want to traumatise my neighbours that much.

I only voted for DMAs because I didn’t want Denzel Curry’s song to win. I love Rage but he just shouted that whole song. Still, got 9 of my songs in the top 100 so I’m stoked!

I liked this format because there was a much harder time figuring out which songs were at the top.

Morning everyone! Lovely reading about heatwaves all over the world and then you step outside and feel the chill up your legs cause you forgot to wear socks. Beautiful day.

You missed the first step of approaching it carefully saying “psh psh psh kitty” ;)

We used to take the free tabletop bin down to the local composting centre. That was neat. It would be nice to have that as a pickup service.

Looks like BCC have a trial on at the moment: https://www.brisbane.qld.gov.au/clean-and-green/rubbish-tips-and-bins/rubbish-bins/food-waste-recycling-service#about
