Honorably discharged in Nov 1996 due to early retirement. 2006 Served from 1987-1994. I spent 3 years and 9 months on the deck of the U.S.S. Australian Dream - Wikipedia. The Australian Dream or Great Australian Dream is a belief that in Australia, home- ownership can lead to a better life and is an expression of success and security. Although this standard of living is enjoyed by many in the existing Australian population, rising house prices compared to average wages are making it increasingly difficult for many to achieve the . It is also noted as having led to urbanisation (or more specifically suburbanisation), causing extensive urban sprawl in the major cities.
The dream flowered in the 1. Australian manufacturing, low unemployment rates, the baby boom and the removal of rent controls. It was certainly aided by the widespread ownership of the automobile. Even as it was growing, the aspirational dream became an occasional object of ridicule in art and literature, some of the strongest criticism appearing in the mid- 1. John Brack, the celebrated novels of Australian manners They're a Weird Mob (1. Nino Culotta (John O'Grady) and My Brother Jack (1. Hussain, Shameer: ShamGeorge Johnston, and Robin Boyd's fierce critique of Australian architecture The Australian Ugliness (1. Typically the Australian Dream focused upon ownership of a detached house (often single storey) on a quarter acresuburban block, surrounded by a garden, which featured in the back a Hills Hoist and a barbecue. Notably, this mirrored the fact that while almost 5. Australian households owned their homes through the first half of the century, the proportion jumped to more than 7. World War II. While many Australians saw home ownership as a domestic ideal to aspire to, artists sometimes viewed it as representing a deadening conformism and narrow- mindedness. Those who had achieved the dream also followed a set of urban rituals, including taking an annual summer holiday by the ocean, living within a nuclear family, as well as. These unspoken yet rigid social customs were actually the focus for the comic novel They're a Weird Mob, a simulated autobiography by a fictitious Italian migrant who struggled to understand the often baffling ways of urban Australians. The novel is resolved when the protagonist adopts the same values by marrying an Australian girl, buying his own quarter acre block, and building his home on it. From the 1. 97. 0s, the Australian dream expanded to cover possession of a swimming pool in the back- yard, a second family car, and, for the affluent, either ownership of a beach- house or taking an annual overseas holiday. Despite the decline of the Australian Dream due to modern planning policies, house prices and the influence of immigration on demographics and culture, many observers still consider ownership of a dwelling as important to many Australians even if they cannot achieve it. Apart from meeting the basic need for shelter, it provides a foundation for family and social stability, and contributes to improved health and educational outcomes and a productive workforce. Thus it enhances both economic performance and 'social capital'. Given its importance in promoting and maintaining a functional, stable and just society, housing should not be considered just another commodity. Many of the social benefits we see flowing from home ownership .

Profiling Black Males, Use of Excessive Force: From Rodney King to Trayvon Martin. By Sylvester Monroe. America’s Wire. LOS ANGELES—Rodney Glen King’s apparent accidental death at age 4. It was young Glen, as he was called, who had discovered his father’s body in the family bathtub. It also triggered events that altered how law enforcement and government officials handle complaints of excessive force and police brutality. The initial impact ofthe beating in March 1. Los Angeles and other cities. This time, an overzealous community watch volunteer in Sanford, Fla., is charged in the shooting death of an unarmed black teenager, and initial police handling of the case has raised widespread concern. But unchanged in two decades is continued use of excessive force by law enforcement officers and others who seek, out of fear, to justify violent and often fatal encounters with black youths and men. That fear factor played a key role in the King trial defense and in another verdict shortly before the city exploded in anger and violence in April 1. Du said Harlins was stealing a bottle of orange juice and shot her in the back of the head. Now abandoned, Jungleland Zoo was best known for it's big cat shows which included bobcats, lynxes, Bengals and Siberian tigers. The incident was videotaped. Five months later, the officer was acquitted. He was shot while running away from the officer, who was trying to arrest him.

Zimmerman says he feared for his life after Martin reached for Zimmerman’s gun, and told him, “You’re going to die.”. According to Zimmerman, he shot Martin in self- defense under Florida’s controversial “stand your ground” law that gives citizens the right to use deadly force if they fear for their lives. They say Zimmerman racially profiled the teenager, followed and confronted him despite being told not to by a 9. Zimmerman called to report a suspicious black man. As recently as 2. Oakland, Calif.

King often said he wanted his epitaph to read: “Can we all just get along?” Nervous and visibly shaken, he spoke those words at a 1. This time, it is not a police officer but a private citizen who took it on himself to patrol the streets to protect his community from what he viewed as potentially dangerous intruders. In the King case and others, blacksfelt that their voices and concerns about police misconduct went largely unheeded. When the officers were acquitted even though the videotape clearly seemed to show excessive force, blacks in Los Angeles took it as one more slap in the face. When city officials rejected Police Chief Bill Lee’s offer to resign, the situation was aggravated. Lee, who had stepped aside temporarily in May and was on paid leave,was fired on June 2. But one thing is clear: The ghost of Rodney King will loom large over the trial of George Zimmerman.

The Gobels lived on the Jungleland property and were very responsible about keeping the animals and people safe. Louie and Kathy sold Jungleland in the 6. The people who bought it from the Gobels owned it when the incident with Jane Mansfield's son occurred. The new owners then defaulted on the loan and Louie and Kathy got the property back. We often heard the lion's roar at night all the way from Jungleland. They were so loud that it sounded like they were right in our parking lot. One night we heard a bullhorn announcement advising us to stay inside because one of the animals had escaped.

Hindu Society through antiquity. Since the vast majority of Brahmins were illiterate, or even neo- literate, the Hindu scriptures were extremely vulnerable to misinterpretation and misrepresentation. It is in the 1. 9th century that Sanskrit scholarship was secularized by the British rulers, who wanted to understand the ancient laws of the country they ruled. The Brahminical monopoly on the reading of ancient texts being broken, mainly by German and British Indologists, several distorted interpretations of Hindu laws came to be challenged, and specially the perverse rituals that these had perpetrated through the ages. Primary among them was Satidaha- the practice of burning Brahmin widows on the funeral pyres of their husbands or Suttee, as it came to be known to the Western world.
