Commonwealth Games shafted News - Fraser Coast FM 107.5
After 15 months of hype, projected glory and excitement for athletes around the world, Premier Andrews flanked by Deputy Jacinta Allan and the Minister for Regional Development Harriet Shing announced that due to cost blow outs Victoria was pulling the plug on the Commonwealth Games.
They had got the sums wrong by over 300% and Andrews said that Victoria could no longer see any benefit in going on with it. Many sought to sheet the blame home to the Monarchy, somehow equating the death of Queen Elizabeth with a loss of any need for athletic endeavour in the anglophone world.
Country centres throughout Victoria were in shock as the first regional Games would have benefitted many regional cities like Ballarat, Shepparton and Geelong. Although a lot of infrastructure was still going ahead according to Ballarat Mayor Des Hudson OAM

Contributed from Victoria
The Independent and Peaceful Australia Network (IPAN) coalition, which has been waging a long Campaign against United States led war exercises on Australian soil has released a statement welcoming the decision by India to pull out of the biggest United States led major war exercises on Australian soil.

United States and Australian government hopes for India joining the Quad and making it a military alliance have been dashed by Indias withdrawal from the Talisman Sabre war games, said Ms Brownlie.
Cancellation of this practice for a war against China would be in the best interest for peace in our region, she said.
The next Talisman Sabre exercises are set to commence in Queensland, Northern Territory, and other states on 22 July. It will involve 30,000 troops, primarily from the US and Australia with smaller number from other countries., and it will be largest-ever joint war exercises.
These exercises are designed to develop the coordination between forces under US command in preparation for war. Every indication is that the preparation is for a war against China.
IPAN believes it is highly significant that India has recognized the purpose of this war exercise and decided to pull out of it, said Ms Brownlie.
IPAN supports the call by the Pacific Peace Network for cancellation of this war exercise which does nothing to promote peace in our region. To the contrary, it heightens tensions and raised the risk of an error or mishap that could trigger a break-out of hostilities in our region.
Much of Australia agrees that this is dangerous, and Australia would be far better served by pursuing positive relationships with other nations, and esp...
Black Sea Ports Closed News - Fraser Coast FM 107.5
Since the beginning of the War, Ukraine and Russia have agreed to let grain shipments travel through their shared body of water, The Back Sea. Yesterday President Putin failed to renew the deal, immediately halting all grain trade from Ukraine.
This aggressive political move will hurt the rest of the world. Still, most importantly, Ukrainian grain is sent to some of the most food-insecure countries, including Ethiopia, Yemen, Afghanistan, Sudan, Somalia, Kenya and Djibouti.
It is a cruel move from the Russians that may turn neutral parties into Ukrainian allies.

Dolphins teaching each other to beg a concern News - Fraser Coast FM 107.5
University of Queensland researchers have
discovered dolphins in the Moreton Bay Area, teaching fellow
dolphins to beg for food from recreational fishers.
This sophisticated behaviour was first noticed in
a study into the social structures of Indo-Pacific bottlenose
dolphins.
Since fishing is popular in the region, dolphins have now begun to take advantage of the feeds. But researchers warn this adaptive strategy may pose long term risks, and spread throughout wider dolphin populations.
Researchers also state better policing and awareness of illegal dolphin feeding is essential in avoiding harmful effects on these marine mammals.
