[whats-in-a-sentence]

The team working on the wording of the bank's statement gathered in Stuart Fowler's office and included representatives from Allen Allen & Hemsley as well as Westpac's Dunne and his assistant Barbara Filipowski. The group formulated a series of advertisements headed 'Westpac Confidential Letters – the facts':

Westpac is dismayed that certain parties have ignored the rulings of the courts with regard to the Westpac Confidential Letters.

Westpac is concerned that certain individuals approach the administration of justice as a game in which they use their best endeavours to evade the rulings of the courts.

The reading of the documents in the South Australian Legislative Council we believe is a clear breach of a fundamental parliamentary convention and has jeopardised several principles which are cornerstones of our society.

Westpac is also disappointed that Senator McLean appears to have ignored the spirit of the ruling by the President of the Senate by distributing the documents outside the Senate chamber . . .

Westpac is unable to reveal or comment in any detail on the confidential letters since they remain the central issue in a number of legal cases, both recent and long-standing, before the courts . . .

But Westpac wishes to have the public record set straight about the circumstances in which the letters were written.

The letters in question are letters of advice sought by the bank from its external solicitors in November and December 1987. They relate to the management by Partnership Pacific Ltd (PPL) of foreign currency exposures for a small number of clients . . .

There is no doubt that the letters contain opinions critical of the way in which certain activities of PPL were conducted . . . PPL has now been merged into the back.

The legal position which the bank has taken in relation to these two letters has been endorsed by the courts. It is very important to note that Westpac in each of its actions against:

—John Fairfax Group Limited (receivers & managers appointed), David Syme & Co Ltd (receivers & managers appointed) and Anne Lampe

—the Australian Broadcasting Corporation

—Federal Capital Press of Australia Ltd, publishers of the Canberra Times

—Naji Halabi and Others

has been granted injunctions restraining the disclosure of the contents of the two letters.

In the proceedings Westpac has brought against Naji Halabi and five other members of his family, the judge ordered all defendants to detail the circumstances under which copies of the letters came into their hands. Mr Naji Halabi swore an affidavit in which he claimed that he could not comply with that part of the Court's order because to do so may tend to incriminate him. In the course of argument in Court Mr Halabi's counsel handed up to the judge a document listing a number of criminal offences for which his client could potentially be liable, as the bases for declining to provide the information required by the judge's order . . .

One of the constrains placed upon the bank and its advisors is that it has not been free to comment extensively on all relevant matters surrounding events of the past month because of the pending criminal and civil trials set down for April and June . . . The bank is unwilling to take any step (by public comment or otherwise) which might be prejudicial to a fair trial . . .

The bank has on five separate occasions issued press releases to explain why it was taking the court action it has pursued. The bank's press releases have been ignored entirely or in large measure by the media, although some journalists and others appear to have no hesitation in making use of documents obviously obtained unlawfully . . . a quantity of bank documents have been stolen. They have been copied and distributed in such a way as to cause the bank maximum embarrassment . . . regardless of the quite responsible criticism levelled at the bank in the media Westpac has not succumbed to nor will it ever succumb to threats to pervert the course of justice. That is the larger issue confronting the bank.

@opponentcompel sent "Be honest + of all the information gleaned from the interviews, what hurt you the most?"

at the all-valley tournament, julia accidentally made eye contact with terry silver and he sent a shiver down her spine. something about him was just off. his face was much more intense than necessary for watching a bunch of teenagers use the karate moves they had been learning for so long. she didn't even mean to, it was just that her dad was performing and she was embarrassed. ( maybe if sam hadn't explained the term dilf to sensei lawrence as a joke only for him to actually use it when billy dunne stepped on stage. he then shrugged and said good music is good music. ) when julia asked sensei larusso about that other sensei standing with cobra kai he stiffened and said he was bad news, that he had been his own sensei and tormented him the entire time. no one in miyago-do knew that he was still around, and he advised julia to stay away from him because he could only be bad news.

so why was he here at the record store? her documentary on daisy jones & the six had helped album sales skyrocket and while aurora had been released on cd, people were insisting on the records so now the band was staring in her face as she walked around downtown, local music stores advertising they had gotten new copies. she had walked in, looking for night at the opera. her dad had gotten her into queen and her records were finally aging. she froze when she almost ran into terry. what was he doing by her dad's record? julia felt protective suddenly. they didn't need his money.

she was about to see if she could slip away when he recognized her and asked her about the interviews. shit, so he had also seen the documentary? she wanted to tell him to leave her and her family alone. still, it was a good question. hearing her parents lay it all out on the table about how they had hurt both each other and other members of the band was a lot for all three of them and it had julia questioning things for a second there. some of it had made it to the documentary, specifically her dad dancing around his relationship with daisy. some people asked her if they did have an affair but she just shrugged and didn't say anything. what was out there was what the two were comfortable with, and all they wanted to say. she had done her part. she looked at terry and folded her arms across her chest, feeling vulnerable. he may be old enough to be her grandfather, but he was strong and anyone who even glanced at him could see that. "why do you want to know?" she asked. she wasn't going to give it to him, that was for sure. she felt like han in star wars. i have a bad feeling about this.

3/1/23.

I love projects like this - the reissue of Roxy Gordon "Crazy Horse Never Died". According to Paradise of Bachelors (North Carolina), this 1988 album's reissue has been in the works for a decade. It comes with a 48 page "chapbook". From the Bandcamp page: "Roxy Gordon (First Coyote Boy, or Tu Gah Juk Juk Ka Na Hok Sheena) (1945–2000) was a Choctaw, Assiniboine, and Texan poet, journalist, artist, activist, and musician." He was friends with Townes Van Zandt and Leonard Cohen and Terry Allen wrote glowingly of his work.

Roxy Gordon's (Dallas, Texas) songs stand alongside other Native artists that combine cultural references with a folk/country sound: Willie Dunn, Morley Loon and John Angaiak.

Prom Night III: The Last Kiss (1989)

In today's review, I find that a new girlfriend just might be enough to improve my academic prospects. As I attempt a #positive review of the late 80s horror comedy, Prom Night III: The Last Kiss #TimConlon #CynthiaPreston #DavidStratton #CourtneyTaylor

We all need that little something extra to motivate us, whether it is a treat at the end of the week, the prospect of better days, or a voice in the background cheering us on. Sometimes that something extra can help us in more literal ways, giving us a spring in our step, or a decaying helping hand. In 1989, Mary Lou Mahoney might just be the ghoul to give this typical high-school student a…

Just throwing these out there, but here are some country songs I think would make amazing song fics for Tyler Owens that I plan to write:

Sounds Like Home by Blue County

Lasso by The Band Perry

You Shouldn’t (Kiss Me Like This) by Toby Keith

Boot Scootin’ Boogie by Brooks and Dunn

Gone by Montgomery Gentry

Slow Me Down by the Willis Clan

Chicks Dig It by Chris Cagle

Why Don’t We Get Drunk and Screw by Jimmy Buffett

Chattahoochie by Alan Jackson

She Thinks My Tractor’s Sexy by Kenny Chesney

Heads Carolina, Tails California by Jo Dee Messina

I Wanna Do It All by Terri Clark

Now That I’ve Found You by Terri Clark

And that’s just the country songs I’ve picked. My alternative list is quite extensive and will remain secret (for now), but you can bet your ass Crazy Train by Ozzy Osborne is going to be on there. (Same with Thunderstruck from AC/DC and Thunder by Boys Like Girls.)

Franklin's lost expedition crew

I was looking at posts about AMC's The Terror and I kept getting confused by the use of first names, so I wanted to see how many of the characters had the same names. Arranging the crew in alphabetical order, I got:

4 x Alexander (Berry, McDonald, Paterson, Wilson)

5 x Charles (Best, Coombs, Des Voeux, Johnson, Osmer)

1 x Cornelius (Hickey)

2 x Daniel (Arthur, Bryant)

1 x Edmund (Hoar)

3 x Edward (Couch, Genge, Little)

2 x Edwin (Helpman, Lawrence)

3 x Francis (Crozier, Dunn, Pocock)

1 x Frederick (Hornby) + Bonus: Des Voeux, whom I have seen referred to as Frederick rather than Charles on occasion

6 x George (Cann, Chambers, Hodgson, Kinnaird, Thompson, Williams)

1 x Gillies (MacBean)

1 x Graham (Gore)

7 x Henry/Harry (Collins, Goodsir, Le Vesconte, Lloyd, Peglar, Sait, Wilkes)

10 x James (Brown, Daly, Elliot, Fairholme, Fitzjames, Hart, Reid, Ridgen, Thompson, Walker) + Bonus: Ross, who was not part of the expedition but appears in the show

23 x John (Bailey, Bates, Bridgens, Brown, Cowie, Diggle, Downing, Franklin, Gregory, Hammond, Handford, Hartnell, Irving, Kenley, Lane, Morfin, Murray, Peddie, Strickland, Sullivan, Torrington, Weekes, Wilson)

A Queer History of SNL, Part Four: The Lost Years

People use the term “the lost years” differently when speaking of Saturday Night Live, but this podcast is using it specifically from the time Lorne Michaels left the show after season five up until season eleven. Aside from Eddie Murphy’s presence on the show, these are the sketches that are less remembered today because they weren’t rerun on Comedy Central in the 2000s as much and they’re largely absent from the cache of episodes preserved online today. And that’s too bad, because this is when the show boasted some legends in the cast — Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Billy Crystal, Joan Cusack, Robert Downey Jr., Martin Short and Damon Wayans among them, as well as queer cast members Terry Sweeney, Denny Dillon and Danitra Vance.

The sketches (and click here if you want to watch them):

“SoHo Lesbians” (S6E10: Debbie Harry)

“Little Richard Simmons” (S7E1: No host)

“James Coburn Is a Homosexual” (S7E11: James Coburn)

“Focus on Film: Making Love” (S7E12: Bruce Dern)

“Penny Lane” (S10E11: Roy Scheider)

“Pinklisting” (S11E1: Madonna)

“Mr. Monopoly” (S11E12: Griffin Dunne)

Monologue (S11E16: Catherine Oxenberg)

“Lesbian Pick-Ups” (S11E18: Anjelica Huston)
