Australia Day this week, always high emotion on both sides. When I was doing my bus tours, I would always explain the situation in Australia with regards to indigenous people by saying that it's a very emotional issue for everyone. Some people think we should talk about it more, and that we need to move towards greater recognition for indigenous people. Some people think we talk about it too much and we should stop spending time and money on it. Personally I think the ideal future for our country is one where every person who is born here or chooses to come here and make it their home, should feel equally as though they have a stake in our society. I don't think that will ever be possible until we address this thing that sits at the heart of our country. The shameful harm that was done to the people who lived here for tens of thousands of years before the British established a colony here in 1788. There are countless stories that serve as examples of this shameful secret, and the more of them we tell, the more we, as a society, can familiarise ourselves with what happened, and maybe work up the collective courage to confront it together. One of those stories was told to me by my grandpa in an email recently, and so I plan to tell it in a video, with a piano version of Advance Australia Fair that I just worked out as the backing track. I'm excited to make the video tomorrow, I think it's going to be great.
《前进,美丽的澳大利亚(Advance Australia Fair)》是一首创作于1878年的歌曲,在经历了两次全民投票后,它于1984年正式成为澳大利亚国歌。
Last night at State Of Origin, Australian Idol winner Dylan Wright performed a highly divisive rendition of "Advance Australia Fair".

每日英語跟讀 Ep.K138: About Australia - Mouse plague sweeps Australia's east Swathes of Australia's rural east are battling a "plague" of mice that is infesting crops and producing hair-raising scenes of rodents running amok. 澳洲鄉村東部大片地區正在與一場老鼠「瘟疫」奮戰,鼠患危害作物,並且造成鼠輩四處橫行的驚駭景象。 Farmers in New South Wales have reported "a drastic increase" in the mouse population, with the creatures invading grain silos, barns and homes, according to the NSW Farmers association. 根據「新南威爾斯州農民協會」說法,該州農民通報老鼠數量「大幅增加」,入侵穀倉和住家。 Videos captured on the Moeris family farm in Gilgandra show thousands of mice scurrying from under pipes, through storage columns and over machinery. 在吉爾加德拉莫里斯家農場捕捉到的畫面顯示,數千隻老鼠從地下管路竄出,穿過穀倉倉筒、越過機具,跑來跑去。 The skin-crawling clips were too much for some social media users. 這些恐怖的畫面讓一些社群媒體使用者難以直視。 "This is exactly what nightmares are made of! I can't even watch the videos," said one Facebook user in response to Melanie Moeris' posts. 一名臉書用戶回應梅蘭妮.莫里斯的發文,「惡夢就是這樣,我甚至不敢看這些影片」。 Next Australia changes national anthem to reflect Indigenous history 澳洲更改國歌以反映原住民歷史 The anthem, "Advance Australia Fair," has been tweaked to recognize the country's Indigenous history and communities, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced. 澳洲總理莫里森宣布,國歌「前進澳洲美之國」已經被些微修正,承認該國原住民歷史與社群。 The first line, "Australians all let us rejoice, for we are young and free," will now end with "one and free." 第一句「澳洲人,讓我們歡笑吧,因為我們年輕又自由」,將改為以「團結又自由」結束。 The anthem has become controversial in recent years, amid growing conversation about Indigenous representation, systemic inequality, and racial injustice. In particular, many have pushed back against the phrase "for we are young and free", a nod to when Britain's First Fleet landed in Australia in 1788. 這首國歌在近幾年變得備受爭議,在愈來愈多關於原住民形象、系統性不平等,與種族不正義的對話中。許多人尤其反對「因為我們年輕又自由」這句(歌詞),贊同英國第一艦隊1788年登陸澳洲的歷史。 The government has a history of changing the song to be more inclusive - when Peter Dodds McCormick's original 1878 composition was declared the official national anthem in 1984, replacing "God Save the Queen," two instances of "sons" were switched with gender-neutral phrasing. 政府過去也曾改動這首歌,以更具包容性。當彼得.多滋.麥考米克1878年譜寫的原曲,於1984年取代「天佑女王」被定為國歌時。曾將歌詞兩處的「兒子」改為性別中立的詞語。Source article: https://features.ltn.com.tw/english/article/paper/1448321; https://news.ltn.com.tw/news/world/paper/1429554 更多Podcast單元: 每日英語跟讀Podcast,就在http://www.15mins.today/daily-shadowing 精選詞彙 VOCAB Podcast,就在https://www.15mins.today/vocab 語音直播 15mins Live Podcast, 就在https://www.15mins.today/15mins-live-podcast 文法練習 In-TENSE Podcast,就在https://www.15mins.today/in-tense 用email訂閱就可以收到通勤學英語節目更新通知。

Rightly or wrongly, the events of Gallipoli have shaped our national identity for over 100 years.In 1915, Australia was a newly federated nation still on its P plates, searching desperately for a sense of self. But what does the ANZAC Spirit mean to us in 2021? Why are we ripping Victoria Cross medals off our most decorated soldiers when we could just chalk it up to the mysterious "Fog of War"? How do we properly install the Spirit into the next generation of milky-handed recruits (presumably via an iOS update)? What even is "mateship" anyway?Is it OK for left-wing social commentators to tweet controversial views about our ANZACs, or should we continue to exile them from Australia until they recite all 4 verses of Advance Australia Fair at gunpoint? And how can nightclubs tastefully leverage the ANZAC Spirit in two-for-one drinks promotions?

A 17-year-old has made history in Australia by being the first person to sing the national anthem in an indigenous Australian language at an international sporting event. Olivia Fox, who is Wiradjuri, led Advance Australia Fair at Sydney's Bankwest Stadium on Saturday night, singing it in the Eora language and then in English. The strength and emotion of her ground-breaking performance was widely acclaimed. Fox, who is a student at Newtown High School of the Performing Arts in Sydney, speaks to Susie Ferguson.
Wallabies players have produced a moment of absolute class during the historic first performance of an Indigenous national anthem at an international sporting event involving an Australian team.Olivia Fox, a young singer from the Newtown High School of the Performing Arts, sung Advance Australia Fair in Eora language and then in English before the Wallabies' final Rugby Championship Test of 2020 against Argentina at BankWest Stadium in Sydney.The dual-language anthem has been met with warm approval and calls for it to be introduced permanently — and the reception was even more glowing for Wallabies captain Michael Hooper and his teammates.It was the first time a joint-language anthem has been performed at an international sporting event in Australia.The spectacle was made a truly momentous moment by the entire Wallabies squad singing the Eora language anthem proudly.It was reported this week the playing group had been learning the lyrics in Eora to show the team is serious about recognising the role of First Nations people in the sport.The moving moment left Aussie sport commentators emotional and inspired.Rugby guru Jamie Pandaram posted on Twitter. Photo / TwitterThe Daily Telegraph's rugby guru Jamie Pandaram posted on Twitter: "Absolutely fantastic: every Wallabies player sung the first half of the national anthem in Indigenous language. Learned the words. Paid respect. A great step forward".Rugby Australia reporter Christy Doran also called the spectacle "spine-tingling"."The finest rendition of the Australian national anthem. That was brilliant. Never felt more proud of our anthem. Well done Olivia Fox," he posted on Twitter.The Wallabies' official Twitter profile called it a "goosebumps" moment.Australian Paralympic legend Richard Coleman wrote: "That is one incredible national anthem @wallabies! As an athlete every time the Australian anthem is performed it should be done this way. I would love to win a gold medal and hear this playing loud and proud, so so inspiring".The Wallabies are also wearing their First Nations jersey.

If you dare probe that there might have been voter fraud in the US election and Joe Biden is not President-elect you'll be fact-checked ten times or disappeared online. After Election Day endless coronavirus vaccination pricks are being mass-produced. The Uncuckables' panel discusses the new post-election world with Tim Wilms Editor of The Unshackled, David Hiscox Editor of the XYZ, Jarrad Searby Director of the AMAG Project, Jarrad's mate Jimmy and for a short while Andy Nolch the Space Cowboy. Andy Nolch the Space Cowboy tries to join us at the beginning but experiences internet interference. Jarrad is joined by his mate Jimmy from Wodonga, Jarrad lost his court case for crossing into Albury, NSW without a permit and was fined $600 by the Magistrate. Big tech is busy either censoring or correcting anyone who suspects that there might be voter fraud in the US elections and that Biden should not be called President-elect. The allegedly far-right Murdoch owned Fox News was the first to call the election for Biden. Former Prime Ministers Kevin Rudd and Malcolm Turnbull are lobbying for a Royal Commission into the Murdoch media in Australia. Victoria has recorded almost two weeks of no new coronavirus cases but masks are still mandatory everywhere. Dan Andrews has said there is no normal without a vaccine, the Oxford vaccine despite stage 3 trials not even being completed the vaccine is already being manufactured in Melbourne. Pfizer announced after the media declared Biden president-elect their vaccine was 90% effective. Dan's government this week tried to pass a law to silence families of rape and murder victims and voted for a Green New Deal motion. IBAC corruption hearings have continued with Dan and his Minister's closeness to a donor coming under closer scrutiny. In federal politics the ABC's Four Corner's program was used by host Louise Milligan and Greens Senator Sarah Hanson Young that two Liberal ministers having consensual affairs with staffers showed the Liberal Party was sexist. Sarah Hanson Young earlier this year gave a character reference to a wife slapper. It was NAIDOC week another Aboriginal themed week which has as its slogan: always was, always will be. Labor and the Greens wanted the 1971 created Aboriginal flag flown during the week. NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian wants a line in Advance Australia Fair to be changed.

新州州長貝莉珍妮安昨日表示,應該修改澳洲國歌歌詞以反映原住民約6萬年的歷史,其言論昨日惹起澳洲政界的熱烈爭論。但澳洲國歌,其實經歷公投及修改,並在面世的百多年後才能真正確立其法定地位。
The debate over the lyrics of the national anthem has reignited. Advance Australia Fair has undergone many alterations since it was written in 1878, now Gladys Berejiklian says another one is needed to recognise Indigenous Australians.
This year of 2020 has seen in unprecedented changes, never before seen in history. The corona virus pandemic has afflicted the world for months now, causing a near shut down of life as we know it, social isolation and a climate of fear that still persists. Don’t believe me? 37 new infections 2 states away, and suddenly there’s a run on toilet paper! We might sing Advance Australia Fair, but the question right now is Advance Australia Where? Where do we go from here, as a nation, as a church, as a people? Here’s what I know… GOD IS STILL IN CONTROL The world is out of control, and leaders, governments, even the media have no idea how to manage it! They are passing laws and handing out money, but honestly, no one has a clue. Human wisdom is failing us. But in a world where people won’t shake your hand, and football is played to a crowd of cardboard cut outs, I declare to you this day, God is still in control, and still in the throne. None of this was a surprise to Him, and He says, Isaiah 46:9-10 (ESV Strong's) for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me, declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things not yet done, saying, ‘My counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my purpose,’ If you are fearful or confused, it’s time to put your faith in the one who knows the beginning from the end. So where we go depends not on us as a church, not on our government and their crazy decisions, ultimately it depends on obedience to God. William Carey said, The future is as bright as the promises of God! SUCH A TIME AS THIS So why have we gone through this pandemic, why us, why now and why are we even here? I believe God has you here for such a time as this. The message is the same as Esther heard fro, her uncle Mordachai… Esther 4:14 (ESV Strong's) For if you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will rise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” God has great plans for His people post COVID, but many will stay silent, stay isolated from church and thereby miss out on being great and part of His plans. What we do as a church is so important right now. We have a golden opportunity to shine into our dark nation like never before, if we are willing to listen to Him, to change and to be obedient. Isaiah 1:19-20 (ESV Strong's) If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land; but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be eaten by the sword; for the mouth of the LORD has spoken.” THE WHOLE WORLD COUNTS THE COST The cost of this unprecedented pandemic is horrendous. The Asian Development Bank predicts that the economic cost of the slowdown due to the pandemic could reach $8.8 trillion (1000 times a billion) US dollars, with one Cambridge study suggesting it could cost up to $82 trillion over 5 years! Australia is losing $4 Billion a week according to the ABC. The social cost? The AMA is predicting and increase in suicides as a result of the pandemic of between 25 and 30%, and reports of domestic violence, what is now called intimate terrorism, have sky rocketed. Even in the church, with draconian laws being made against it, the numbers of attendees are predicted to fall significantly post virus. Romans 1:21-22 (ESV Strong's) For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, Look at the way the world has tried to handle this pandemic… trying to be wise they haven’t really handled it well. Human reason is limited. They’ve tried to do the right thing, but honestly no one has a clue! So they change laws every 5 minutes. THE CHURCH UNDER ATTACK State government laws tell us we can have up to 100 people attend church, but must allow 4 sq m per person, or 7 sq m per person if singing is involved. Name a church that doesn’t sing. Sporting events can have up to 2000 people screaming and spitting, and social distancing is only 2 m. Where is the sense in that? Pubs playing music, you don’t think anyone is going to sing? The Bible says, Romans 13:1-2 (ESV Strong's) Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. Yes, Ignite will be obedient to our government, but I call upon our government to stop persecuting churches with targeted, more restrictive laws for Christians only. If you have integrity, make the laws the same across pubs, clubs, sports and churches. Suicide, mental health and domestic violence rates are far less in the church, so for the mental and spiritual wellbeing of all Australians, government, treat churches with respect and give us a level playing field! CH-CH-CH-CHANGES But whatever happens, change is here to stay for the church. I wish change was easy. An old man from the mountains took a trip to the big city. For the first time in his life he found himself standing outside an elevator. He watched as an old, haggard woman hobbled on and the doors closed behind her. A few minutes later the doors opened and a young, attractive woman marched smartly off. Amazed, but realising the possibilities, the old man turned to his son and said, “Boy, go home and get your mamma so I can run her through that thing.” But sadly, genuine change is not instantaneous, but a process. All of the changes we see around us make us uncomfortable. No one likes change. Mark Twain said, The only person who likes a change is a wet baby. David Bowie sang, ch-ch-changes, turn and take the strain. Changes make us strain, they hurt, but sometimes they are necessary, and I believe right now we need to embrace changes and the strain like never before, and do so without fear, for the one who is within us is greater. Psalms 91:9-11 (ESV Strong's) Because you have made the LORD your dwelling place— the Most High, who is my refuge— no evil shall be allowed to befall you, no plague come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. Changes might be uncomfortable, even unwelcome, but you should not face these changes with any fear. Our God is our refuge, and our provider, so we in the church can accommodate changes with confidence. THESE CHANGES ARE HERE TO STAY 911 was a pivotal time in history. After 911, things changed forever especially in the world of security. No longer are kids asked up into the cockpit, and we now allow lengthy time for security at airports. It’s all changed, and now we are use to it… It’s the new norm. COVID will change how we live forever. Many of the changes are most likely here to stay, including meetings via zoom, working from home and probably some aspects of social distancing. I guessing football in front of cardboard cut outs and toilet paper shortages will go. So I have said to the Lord, I am not interested in changing how we do church for a month, or 6 months or whatever it takes to overcome the restrictions. I’ve asked God for keys as to how we can do church into the future. Are there things we can learn now that will last, and things that can improve our effectiveness as a church? THE UP SIDE OF THE DOWNTURN There’s no doubt the corona virus is responsible for many bad things, including people dying, economies collapsing, businesses ceasing and mental health, who even knows! Romans 8:28 (ESV Strong's) And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. I believe God can make lemonade out of lemons. He can bring tremendous good out of a really bad things. So what is the upside of the downturn due to corona for Ignite? We are going live online with Facebook, and downloads of sermons far exceed the numbers we use to get in the building. We are reaching more people. Sparks give me as a pastor a chance to speak into people’s lives daily. A lot of work, but we get hundreds of downloads every day. Is this a key of how we can reach our community and beyond online? Small groups have formed in homes that are going very well, and the Holy Spirit is moving in them wonderfully. Participants report closer fellowship, and seeing visions and prophetic words among the attendees. We have ground to a halt as far as “normal” church is concerned. I believe that we now have the opportunity to makes changes we probably couldn’t have made before. Everything is different. Never before have people in general and church people in particular been open to change to this extent. Normally it takes 2.5 miles to turn the Titanic 90 degrees. It’s harder to change a church culture. COVID has caused a reset that stopped us and our long term preferences, and we can now start afresh in a new, Spirit led direction. People are not so much hungry for preaching or worship, they can get that online. But people are hungry for fellowship. So how can we capitalise on these trends to become a stronger, more powerful church, reaching more people and setting more lives free in our community? THE WAY FORWARD IN THE NEW NORM God spoke to me yesterday in my Quiet Time and said, Isaiah 42:9 (ESV Strong's) Behold, the former things have come to pass, and new things I now declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them.” I said, great Lord, please show me and tell me about these new things. If you are waiting for things to get back to normal, you could be waiting a really long time, years in fact. They tell us that most of us will not be travelling overseas any time this year. We can’t even travel to Victoria. And church may not get back to what it was pre corona until next year, if ever! So we need a new way if doing church, that complies with heavy handed, abusive government laws, but still connects our people. After much prayer and seeking the Lord, I believe God has given us a plan to move forward as a church, and to restart church, call it reignite, so that there will be something for everyone going forward. At the present time, and possibly for a long time to come, restrictions on the numbers of people in the church auditorium remain, and we have no idea when they will cease. So as we always do, we turn to the Word of God for guidance. The early church faced severe restrictions too, and they grew through it… Acts 2:46-47 (ESV Strong's) And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved. That’s our plan… Some attending the temple, and some breaking bread in homes. I believe this is God’s blueprint for us to grow and prosper as a church in this moment, and maybe even long into the future. SO WHERE DO YOU FIT? I believe there’s a place at Ignite for you, every one of you. If you want to attend a church and experience church live, we have limited spots, but you can. If you want to experience close fellowship, you can attend a house party, watching the first part of the service on the big screen, then fellowshipping in the small group. So here are 3 positive decisions I am going to ask you to make today… RESET YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD Above all I want to urge you at this time to reset your relationship with God. Some of you have just let it slip. You are still a Christian, but in all the upheaval, in all the isolation, it’s just quietly slipped out of your reach. Now is the time to reset your relationship with God, starting with your quiet time. Read His Word, join us in the Bible reading plan, and come join us at church, in some form or other. Prioritise Jesus. COMMIT TO IGNITE AS YOUR CHURCH COMMUNITY, NO MATTER HOW IT LOOKS If you are willing and have an open heart, I believe the Lord will give us insight and principles that will enable us to be closer than ever before, and to grow more than ever before. God did it in Acts, and He will do it again at Ignite… Acts 2:42-44 (ESV Strong's) And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. And all who believed were together and had all things in common. So we will have a time of teaching, a time of fellowship, a time of breaking of bread which is eating together and a time of prayer and worship. I think church at Ignite is going to be more exciting and engaging than ever before. BE PATIENT WITH US AND EACH OTHER, GOD’S NOT FINISHED YET I am asking you to be patient with us as we learn and understand what the Lord is saying, and I’m asking you to be committed to Ignite, believing God is growing something truly powerful and profound in these dark times. I don’t have all the answers. Our worship team is learning new ways to enter into deeper worship. Our group leaders are learning how better to facilitate discussion, how to pray more effectively. We are all learning how to hear God more, how to move in the Spirit more, how to see more lives transformed, more miracles, more healings, more marriages restored, everything. So please be patient. I read a meme, Lord, bless me with patience, not the opportunities to be patient, I’ve had plenty of those and they don’t seem to be working, I mean the actual patience. I believe we are about to see church change as it has never changed in history, and in it Ignite will discover incredible keys, keys that will enable us to reach our community more effectively than ever before. Come with us, stand with us, believe with us and together we can build the church God has destined us to be! Jesus is still praying His high priestly prayer John 17:21 (ESV Strong's) that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. Lord, make Ignite my home. I join hands and join hearts with Ignite to build the church You want in such a time as this.
Aussie, Aussie, Aussie! It's our first country themed night on the podcast, ever! Tonight Mo highlights four callers from the country/continent of Australia. From different parts of the country with different issues to discuss. Let's touch base with our Fil-Aus community as we hear their stories. Advance Australia Fair! Caller #1 is Alex who is 35yrs old from Cairns. Alex is living in with her boyfriend who is near 80 years old. They have been together since she was 29 and she's very honest -- she's with him because she wants a better life financially, she wants a visa to live in AUS, and she wants to inherit his wealth once he dies. Alex has a boyfriend in Cebu and she is starting to get tired of caring for her living-in partner and is tempted to leave it all to be with her true love and kids back home in the PH. Caller #2 is Jose who is 25yrs old from Sydney. Jose has been in AUS for 10 years and he is being bullied and harassed which he feels is because of his thick Filipino accent. The worst part of it is that the ones bullying him are also Filipinos. It’s a sad reality for Jose because all the abuse is making him depressed coupled with anxiety attacks. Caller #3 is Jen who is 23yrs old, also from Sydney. Jen graduated with a Media degree in AUS but she feels like she isnt maximizing her life as she is working part-time at a restaurant. Does she need to jumpstart her career, but she hasn't really identified what she wants to do? Caller #4 is Stella who is 27yrs old from Melbourne. Stella has been a listener of the podcast since her teenage years and she starts th show asking Mo about his advice-giving technique. She then goes on to ask whether she should get involved in the relationship of her friend and his bitch girlfriend.

Here are once again with the fabulous Nerds for the weekly episode of hijinks and merriment. This week we look at topics that will hopefully entertain you, perhaps educate you, perchance even make you laugh. As usual we have our three Nerds, idiots, nutjobs, wackjobs, funny farm contenders, or as we like to say, your hosts. Bucky, Professor and the DJ. Bucky is our slightly older, kind of grumpy Nerd, who dislikes Mumble rappers, reality TV and generally stupidity. Professor our younger Nerd who likes gaming, long walks to the camp fire, and his Switch when on the bus. Last but not least, we have the DJ, the resident Droid that no one is looking for, who likes anime, games and laughing. First topic up this week is about some new illustrated novels, or omics, from the Firefly franchise. The DJ is challenged to finally watch the series to help him discover his inner Browncoat, will he be brave enough to walk down the street in a hat like that and show he aint afraid of nothing? We will find out, but by my pretty blue bonnet if he doesn’t we will aim to misbehave and cause mischief. Next up we look at the stress and traumatic conditions developers are suffering through to bring us new games. With reports of people developing PTSD, and hiding this fact so they can get jobs. This is seriously messed up, what these people are going through is downright wrong and needs to be looked at. Also Buck has a rant about the need to look after each other because he is sick and tired of morons putting profit before people. Last up Buck brings us an article about Rainbows. No, he hasn’t become a hippie or something drastic. He just felt we needed to take a moment and look around us and admire the simple things, you know, kind of like smell the roses and noticed the politicians as people (we think they are, but don’t hold us to that – Ed.). So we have 20 facts about rainbows and one of which is that the Greeks thought there were only three colours in the rainbow. We follow this with the usual look at the games we have been playing this week and give you a run down on them. Concluding with the episode with the regular Shout outs, remembrances, birthdays and events for the week that we all love. As always, take care of each other and stay hydrated.EPISODE NOTES:Firefly comics - https://comicbook.com/comics/2019/05/13/firefly-the-sting-joss-whedon-boom-studios/MK 11 & PTSD - https://www.kotaku.com.au/2019/05/id-have-these-extremely-graphic-dreams-what-its-like-to-work-on-ultra-violent-games-like-mortal-kombat-11/Rainbows - http://discovermagazine.com/2019/may/20-things-you-didnt-know-about--rainbowsGames currently playingProfessor – Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead - https://cataclysmdda.org/ Buck – Monster Truck Drive - https://store.steampowered.com/app/847870/Monster_Truck_Drive/DJ – Dota 2 - https://store.steampowered.com/app/570/Dota_2/Other topics discussedChanges to Santa Clarita Diet- https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/santa-clarita-diet-creator-explains-season-3-talks-season-4-1198429Ed Boon’s take on fatalities- https://www.businessinsider.com.au/mortal-kombat-creator-ed-boon-explains-how-new-fatalities-are-made-2019-3?r=US&IR=TFacebook content moderators having PTSD- https://futurism.com/the-byte/facebook-content-moderators-lawsuit-ptsdGrumpy Cat (internet personality)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grumpy_CatAll Dogs gone to Heaven (1989 film)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Dogs_Go_to_HeavenLinguistic relativity and the colour naming- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguistic_relativity_and_the_color_naming_debateChromatic aberration - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatic_aberrationPot of gold at the end of the rainbow- http://luckyireland.com/the-origin-of-a-pot-of-gold-at-the-end-of-the-rainbow/Minecraft Earth (mobile game)- https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/earthDota 2 New Character: Mars - Character bio - https://dota2.gamepedia.com/Mars- Mars’ character design - https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/apps/dota2/images/mars/hero_mars93fd33s5.jpgShadow of the Colossus (2006 game)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_of_the_ColossusTrials Fusion (2014 game)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trials_FusionStunt Car Arena (arcade game)- http://www.arcadespot.com/game/stunt-car-arena/Millionaire’s advice to young people – stop spending smashed avocados - https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2017/may/15/australian-millionaire-millennials-avocado-toast-houseColorectal Cancer also known as colon cancer- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colorectal_cancerDiamond Jubilee of Elizabeth II- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond_Jubilee_of_Elizabeth_IIQueen Victoria- Bio - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_Victoria- Queen Victoria with her grandchildren and other guests - https://images.immediate.co.uk/volatile/sites/7/2018/01/Queen_victoria_family-fd7d69f.jpg?quality=90&resize=768,574Stevie Wonder catches microphone stand- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUgngvsWLlECarrie Fisher roasts George Lucas- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZ97s396kb0Mark Zuckerberg will eat meat he kills- https://www.huffingtonpost.com.au/2017/07/13/mark-zuckerberg-will-only-eat-meat-he-kills-himself_a_23027199/Apple loses money than the value of Facebook- https://www.businessinsider.com.au/apples-market-cap-falls-by-450-billion-more-than-the-value-of-facebook-2019-1?r=US&IR=TWalt Disney - Bio and urban myth on Walt’s body is frozen - https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walt_Disney- Human bones in Disneyland - https://collinsrace1.wordpress.com/2018/10/29/are-there-human-bones-at-disney-parks/Elvis Lives (That’s Not Canon Podcast)- https://thatsnotcanon.com/elvislivespodcastCaptain Jack Sparrow (Pirates of The Caribbean character)- https://pirates.fandom.com/wiki/Jack_SparrowHenry Sutton (Australian Inventor)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Sutton_(inventor) Shoutouts7 May 1999 - The Mummy opened and grossed $43 million in 3,210 theatres in the United States on its opening weekend. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mummy_(1999_film)14 May 1796 - English country doctor Edward Jenner administers the first inoculation against smallpox, using cowpox pus, in Berkeley, Gloucestershire - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_JennerRemembrances11 May 2019 – Peggy Lipton, American actress, model, and singer.

Heinz Company based in Pittsburgh,Pennsylvania. He was born in that city, the son of German immigrants from the Palatinate who came independently to the United States in the early 1840s. Heinz developed his business into a national company which made more than 60 food products; one of its first was tomato ketchup. He was influential for introducing high sanitary standards for food manufacturing. He also exercised a paternal relationship with his workers, providing health benefits, recreation facilities, and cultural amenities. His descendants carried on the business until fairly recently, selling their remaining holdings to the predecessor company of what is now Kraft Heinz. Heinz was the great-grandfather of former U.S. Senator H. John Heinz III of Pennsylvania. He died of pneumonia at 75 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_J._Heinz14 May 1998 - Frank Sinatra, American singer, actor and producer who was one of the most popular and influential musical artists of the 20th century. He is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, having sold more than 150 million records worldwide. Born to Italian immigrants in Hoboken, New Jersey, Sinatra began his musical career in the swing era with bandleaders Harry James and Tommy Dorsey. Sinatra found success as a solo artist after he signed with Columbia Records in 1943, becoming the idol of the "bobby soxers". He released his debut album, The Voice of Frank Sinatra, in 1946. Sinatra's professional career had stalled by the early 1950s, and he turned to Las Vegas, where he became one of its best known residency performers as part of the Rat Pack. His career was reborn in 1953 with the success of From Here to Eternity, with his performance subsequently winning an Academy Award and Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor. Sinatra released several critically lauded albums, including In the Wee Small Hours, Songs for Swingin' Lovers!, Come Fly with Me, Only the Lonely and Nice 'n' Easy. Sinatra left Capitol in 1960 to start his own record label, Reprise Records, and released a string of successful albums. In 1965, he recorded the retrospective September of My Years and starred in the Emmy-winning television special Frank Sinatra: A Man and His Music. After releasing Sinatra at the Sands, recorded at the Sands Hotel and Casino in Vegas with frequent collaborator Count Basie in early 1966, the following year he recorded one of his most famous collaborations with Tom Jobim, the album Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim. It was followed by 1968'sFrancis A. & Edward K. with Duke Ellington. Sinatra retired for the first time in 1971, but came out of retirement two years later and recorded several albums and resumed performing at Caesars Palace, and reached success in 1980 with "New York, New York". Using his Las Vegas shows as a home base, he toured both within the United States and internationally until shortly before his death in 1998. Sinatra forged a highly successful career as a film actor. After winning an Academy Award for From Here to Eternity, he starred in The Man with the Golden Arm, and received critical acclaim for his performance in The Manchurian Candidate. He appeared in various musicals such as On the Town, Guys and Dolls, High Society, and Pal Joey, winning another Golden Globe for the latter. Toward the end of his career, he became associated with playing detectives, including the title character in Tony Rome. Sinatra would later receive the Golden Globe Cecil B. DeMille Award in 1971. On television, The Frank Sinatra Show began on ABC in 1950, and he continued to make appearances on television throughout the 1950s and 1960s. Sinatra was also heavily involved with politics from the mid-1940s, and actively campaigned for presidents such as Harry S. Truman, John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan. In crime, the FBI investigated Sinatra and his alleged relationship with the Mafia. He was honored at the Kennedy Center Honors in 1983, was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Ronald Reagan in 1985, and the Congressional Gold Medal in 1997. Sinatra was also the recipient of eleven Grammy Awards, including the Grammy Trustees Award, Grammy Legend Award and the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. He was collectively included in Time magazine's compilation of the 20th century's 100 most influential people. After Sinatra's death, American music critic Robert Christgau called him "the greatest singer of the 20th century", and he continues to be seen as an iconic figure. He died of a heart attack at 82 in Los Angeles, California . - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Sinatra14 May 2019 – Tim Conway, American comedic actor, writer, and director. He portrayed the inept Ensign Parker in the 1960s World War II situation comedy McHale's Navy, was a regular cast member on the 1970s variety and sketch comedy program The Carol Burnett Show, co-starred with Don Knotts in several films in the late 1970s and early 1980s, starred as the title character in the Dorf series of sports comedy films, and provided the voice of Barnacle Boy in the animated series SpongeBob SquarePants.
