Sun, 2nd Oct, 2005 13:00 Samela has some comments on the recent Bali bombings on her blog here. This article in the Sydney Morning Herald indicates thats Azahari Husin, who studied in Adelaide briefly in the 1970s, may have been one of those responsible for the bombings. The Australian has this article which mentions people in Adelaide Airport cancelling trips to Bali. Jeff has written on his blog here about his flight to Bali later today. Scott has linked to this article which discusses the new South Australian terrorism laws and shrugs off the possibility of a terrorist attack in Adelaide. 15 Comments Sat, 1st Oct, 2005 12:00 Here's a theory: throughout their lives, people mostly remember their teenage years and early twenties. People who control the content in the media are usually in their mid to late thirties or early forties. When these people run out of new ideas, they look to the period in their lives they remember the most. Therefore, retro revivals are usually from 15 - 20 years ago. That means we're just about to leave the 80s and move into the 90s. Nathan has a post on his blog here with a 90s theme. Petstarr has a post here about dreading the return of the 90s. For those still in the 80s, Spoz has some suggestions here. 16 Comments Fri, 30th Sep, 2005 12:00 Photos from the Finish Line of the World Solar Car Challenge (wsc.org.au) Wed, 28th Sep, 2005 22:30 Hisyam is a Muslim from Malaysia now living in Adelaide. He has written a post here about the first time he looked for a mosque in Adelaide. Samela has written a post here on the Advertiser's briefing of the 2006 Adelaide festival. Scott has a post here which mentions Adelaide public art and compares it to Window's desktop customisations. 33 Comments Mon, 26th Sep, 2005 22:30 Last week saw the signing of Adelaide band Wolf and Cub to the UK label 4AD. 4AD is best known as The Pixies' record label, but has also has had releases from such bands as The Birthday Party, Lush and The Breeders. The Remote Control Records website has more on the signing here. Some Wolf and Cub tracks can be heard on their myspace site here. If you went to a No Through Road gig from late 2004 to mid 2005 you would probably have heard that the slightly mournful song 'ive forgotten how to make you cum' had reached number 3 in the Triple J Net 50. No Through Road has just released an album, Lo-Fi Sandwich, which can be downloaded from the No Through Road website here. Matt from No Through Road has a blog here. Noranna has some photos of No Through Road here. 20 Comments Thu, 22nd Sep, 2005 17:00 Petstarr has a post on her blog here looking for bloggers in the north part of Adelaide who are interested in getting some possible media attention. 55 Comments Thu, 22nd Sep, 2005 0:30 Apparently shoes on power lines means there is a drug dealer in the area. It serves as both an advertisement and a warning to other drug dealers to keep off their turf. Well, it seems Adelaide has had an explosion in the number of drug dealers advertising lately. I've seen at least 3 pairs on Magill Road. Alternatively, you could believe that it's all an urban myth. More sightings of shoes on power lines and some explanations can be found on the adelaidians journal here. Nathan has a photo of some shoes on the St Bernard's Road power lines here. The Snopes entry on shoes on powerlines is here and the Straght Dope entry is here. 31 Comments Wed, 21st Sep, 2005 12:30 Snowtown killers ate bits of last victim (smh.com.au) Tue, 20th Sep, 2005 21:30 On the weekend I rode my bicycle from the city to the Kensington Road Lookout. Well, when I say rode I mean rode, rested, walked, rested, rode, rested, walked and then rode the final 100m so I could pretend to people at the top that I rode the whole way. I'm not used to much physical exercise and when I got to the top my arms and legs were shaking. There wasn't much to rest the camera on, but I was able to take this photo. Next time I'll have to bring a tripod in my backpack... Some other people who have written about their weekend: Samela Harris has written a post here about speaking at the South Australian Writers Festival Ms Cynic has written a post here about the Bugg'n hip hop show at the Shores Complex. Noranna has some photos here from the Adelaide Peace Festival. 40 Comments Fri, 16th Sep, 2005 14:00 MP Ellis denies Latham harassed her (abc.net.au) The federal Member for Adelaide, Kate Ellis, says former Labor leader Mark Latham never sexually harassed her. For better or worse, here's the new Magic Mountain (theadvertiser.news.com.au) THE building to replace Magic Mountain on Glenelg's foreshore - due for completion by the end of summer - has already been branded "ugly" by Holdfast Bay's mayor. Problems for Coopers (news.com.au) ADELAIDE'S Coopers Brewery is truly an anachronism - a 19th century company that's alive and doing rather well in the 21st century. CROWS MIND GAMES: Preliminary final comes down to cat and mouse (theadvertiser.news.com.au) ADELAIDE boasts it has the game - and team - to win anywhere, anytime and against anyone; even a refreshed West Coast at Subiaco Oval in tomorrow's AFL preliminary final.
