But if these are dry for more of the time, when the rains and water do come... what types and volume of garbage would be flushed into the "playgrounds" for the little kiddies to be exposed to?
I can't imagine that it would be very safe to let little children play in heavy metal and all the other types of effluent that was down storm drains.
Take a look at the next storm water drain, and the look at the goo collected at the bottom of the hole and ask yourself if you want to wade knee deep in there and then spend the rest of the morning wandering around in your disease suit?
Nice in theory, but unless they can some how clean the water before it gets to the kids playground this is a very bad idea
Living in Canberra (the capital city of Australia in case you don't know the name, the reason I've included this is because some geography teachers who shall remain nameless/ignorant... teach that Sydney is the capital..) we see load of Wombats... sadly most are road kill... but I digress...
The strong back is definitely a given.. we have friends in the SES who've actually witnessed car accidents where the poor wombat is pinned under the vehicle, with the majority of the cars weight on the animal.. but when the SES managed to lift the car off the Wombat, it got up and ran off into the bush... so don't mess with a Wombat baby!
This list has been superseded... they missed one of the newest longest and highest in the world.. all in one lift.. http://ww1.whistlerblackcomb.com/p2pg/details/
How can that be running up the score.. if the opposing team sucks so bad as to loose 100 - zero should the better team simply all lay on their backsides for half a game to let the losers play catch up?
How in the hell is this a good lesson to teach kids... "its ok darling, if you are a loser and can cut it in the real world, the world will stop so you can catch up.... again".... NO WHERE is this a real life scenario.. no one will stop so you can catch up.. industry and society would still be in the dark ages if the world was run like this
get a grip... the coach was obviously getting better results from his girls than the losing coach.. who I assume still has his job... so kids there-in lies your lesson.. don't succeed or you'll get your arse canned.. suck at your job and get promoted...
the world will be full over politicians and weathermen soon enough!
I am a former Canuck from Calgary, the lights are not only out in the cold winter, but can also be seen throughout the year. They are more common in winter, but I think it is because the days are shorter and the pure night comes quicker so you see them more regularly.
I've lost count of the number of times I've been driving through Alberta in the wee hours of the morning (1-4AM) and have pulled over to lay be in a field to enjoy the Aurora in the summer time... its rare but amazing... and not surprisingly a LOT more enjoyable then when its 30 below!!!
Having swam with the real thing in the Great Barrier Reef, I agree with elfi21.. save your money and come down to Australia.. you'll be much more impressed when you see a 5 meter Manta swim underneath you! I've got pix if anyone is interested!
My cat can snore the hell outta dat duck.. we can hear her snoring in the front room, from the back of the house.. and my wife says "I" snore loudly!!!! WTF!
